company is to extend that time one

to be very anxious about building
the line to Hillsboro. In fact, a
majority of Hillsboro people, and
those who live along the line of the
promised road, are not sure that it
will ever be built, and it would aive
satisfaction here if the Portland
council would insist uoon the oriui-

NOT MED ALIVE
I'ioncer was Turned Partial
ly on Side
NO OtESTIOS OP HIS DEATH
John W. Stwtll aaja Kclativc'e Con
jecture is ibiuib
Ex-Sheriff John W. Sewell, whose
name is a synonym for honesty
and integrity, eays that the conjec
ture of the relative of the late R.
B. Churchill, that the old pioneer
might have been buried alive, is
utl ?rly abaurd. Churchill died at
Tillamook years ago, and a relative
recently exhumed tbe body, and,
finding the skeleton on ita side,
gave out a story that the old man
might not have been dead. Mr.
Sewell gives out the following state
ment as to Churchill's death:
"Shortly before Churchill died he
came to my home, and, being sick,
wanted to go to tbe coast. My fam
ily, Mr. Churchill, and a Mr. Ew
ing, a son of Rev. W. D. Ewioz.
drove over to Netarts, where Mr.
Churchill, a chronic sufferer from
dyspepsia, was taken violently ill.
e took bim to lillamook and put
him under medical treatment, and
as he grew better, we started home,
our trip having been cut short by
reason of one of tbe children get
ting its feet burned. When we
reached the Trask a horseman over
took us, and informed us that the
old gentleman was dead. We went
back to Tillamook to ere to his in
terment. I bought him a burial
suit and coffin, and we laid to rest
the old man who had been a friend
of tbe family for yeare. I paid the
expenses, as Churchill had but $31
on bis person. Tbe body decom
posed rapidly, and as there was a
copiouB diecbarge from his mouth
and nostrils, we turned him partial
ly on bis Bide. That is all tbere is
to the story. Churchill had the
beet medical to be procured, and
a decent burial, and we did all pos
sible for him, as he had no relatives
present.

A farmer was in town one day

whether tbe owners of bird dogs
could be prosecuted for the offense
of their dogs, which he says tap
on bunting China pheasants in tie

tbe question are too deep for tbe
average fount of information. But
dogs are now property, according
to an act passed by the last legis
lature, and it may be that better
see a lawyer. Assessor Nelson, of

that be does not think they are
