M over on Lone Tom, which is noth ing more nor less than an elk-hide harness shop. The main feature in this kind of harness is that it will fit the smallest jackass rabbit, or the largest elephant, equally well according to whether the atmosphere happens to be dry or moist. Suc cess to the enterprise, any way. ('apt. Wheeler has commenced operations with his canal boat, Red Jacket, hauling 800 bushels of wheat at one load, with one horse, with less than two feet of water in the Canal. When the depth of water is increased to three feet, as we are told it soon will be, he can carry a much larger load. Quite a number who saw the corpse found on the bank of the river Sunday, were confident it was the body of Sam Price, of Independ ence ; others were equally as confi dent it was a Mr. Lemon, a book agent, who left this city for Harris- burg two or three weeks ago. To-morrow Prof. Tapp will have an especially ugly customer in the shape of a wild, unruly horse, to put through a philosophical course. Those who have not attended the school, should not fall to be there to-morrow. All can learn some thing that will prove of great value to them in the handling of horses. . . liyii i The Farmers' Union Warehouse at Shedd, A. Wheeler & Co., man agere, has been placed in perfect repair, and, with additional room In process of construction, offers supe rior advantages to farmers for the storage of grain. See card in this number. Mr. L. C. Burkhart, agent of the Grangers of this county, will have a large amount of wheat for sale, probably 500,000 bushels, stored at different points in the county, for which he now awaits bids. From the expressions let fall by farmers we are inclined to think that very little wheat, it any, can be purchased for less than 80c, while the great bulk will be retained until $1 per bushel is obtained. Our farmers are in a position to hold over, and will probably do it rather than take less than the price de manded. N. BAUM Wants 200,000 lbs. Sm of good WOOL, and will pay the n -" F highest market price tor it lays 1 fifr. for efftrs. 15 to 20c for butter, $1 37i for lard in 101b. cans, and tor all other produce the highest market price. He has the largest stock of goods, and sells them cheaper than, any house in the city, Call and see for yourself. Oheadle's. brjck, building Fun street Clouds threatening. Butter 25c; eggs 20c. Have you seen Arnold's gay out fit. Dr. Haokell'sentertainmentMon. day night was very pleasing. Weather cloudy and threatening rain for some days. . Quite a number of new-comers in the city, looking for homes. Mr. Braincr, of Brownsville, was in the city on Wednesday. Jas. Cowan, of Lebanon, was in the city on Wednesday. As hich as 60c per bushel has IC7 1 been offered for wheat. Oh. Hams 14 15c; sides 11 12c ; shoulders 8c. Mumps still raging with unabated swellingosity. Sam Knox's youngest child was buried on Monday. Fred Grat had made eight coffins up to Wednesday all ordered. Mrs. Baber is still very ill, with little or no improvement since our last report Clement's wife presented him k with a little girl, no longer ago than Saturday. Bully tor Clem. Jackson county boasts of a lad only 15 years of age, who measuies 6 feet and 2 inchees. Velly good. Grouse and pheasants are fat as butter, and anxious to grace the table. Plummer, the elocutionist, is keep ing books for a logging firm or mill company, oyer on the Sound. Mr. C. D. Burkhart has been confined to his house tor some days with a severe attack of bronchitis. Mrs. P. O. Harper has gone to Salem where she will remain tor a week or two. Dr. Hill and daughter, Mrs. Addie Mansfield, returned from the Bay on Tuesday. We learn that Father Shepherd, of Keosaqua, Iowa, intends spend- ing the coming Winter in Oregou. We publish the list of premiums to bo awarded at the Linn County Fair, entire in this issue. Fires in the mouutains beyond Brownsville, but beyond destroying vast quantities of fine timber, no damage reported. A huge sea lion was killed at the Bav a few days ago. Pleasure seekers there were having a splendid time. Watermelons are to be had in market red cored fellows, you know and we have agreed to pull out as long as they last. The immense number of wagons loaded with wheat constantly pour ing into the city, keep clouds of dust constantly flying. Miss Lizzie Halbrook is learning L (.. nwienrvat.ive" At the Dem- LUM a I V yivov. - r - ghe,n make a ujfty Utt, iritcr8 devil r Tins Parker & Morris warehouse 90x70 feet, with an elevator 40 feet high, and has two fans which wui olean 7,000 bushels in ten hour,, run by water power The house will hold nearly 200,000 lb luslii of wheat It cost about Two more numbers closes volume Six; We shall issue number One of volume Seven on sheet just twice as large as the one before you, which wilt make the Register eqnal in sue and, at 12 60, cheaper in price, than any paper on the Pacific coast To entitle them to the low price, subrcribers most pay in advance otherwise the price will remain three dollars. Come in at once, pay up and renew. Quite a number ot the farmers living near the Santiam Canal, pro. pose using it in shipping their grain to this city. The canal boat takes it to the jump-off near James Elk ins' place, whence Morris & Parker, will haul it, free of charge, to their fine warehouse at the mouth of the Canal. By next season locks will be constructed at the jump-off, en. abling boats to go the entire length of the canal. The ('anal is prov ing itself a greater blessing every day. We secured from John R. Smith, on Tuesday, a few stalks of wheat and oats grown on bis farm in Albany Prairie, that resemble corn stalks in size. The heads are un usually long and full, and the grain large and plump. We never saw. such grain any where before. Harvesting is progressing with. unabated vigor. Grain turning oat much better than anticipated. In fact, we are inclined to believe, from reports, that the crop generally will prove larger than that of last year,r and that was over average. The Odd Fellows have decided: to have a railroad excursion to Pant Creek, or in that vicinity, where they spent such pleasant days last season. The intention is to start the first of next week. The bite of a man is said to breed hvdrophobia, but even this knowl edge won't diminish the number of couples who coo over the gates in the evening as the shadows lark in the apple tree. Young ladies who are subject to, nervous debility should beware of' exercising too much. Let them, as much as possible, lie quietly upon the lounge or sofa, and suffer their mothers to tan them ! The twin infatsof J. Haoklemanfc ex-County Clerk, were buried yes-. terday. They succumbed to cholera infantum. Mr. Hackleman and wife have the full sympathy of the entire community. Mr. Galloway Warwick.an aged; gentleman, lately from the East died on Tuesday evening, and was, buried by the Masons of this city of which order he was a member, on, Wednesday afternoon. John C. Mendenhall, looking as natural as life, only a little more, so, came up from Portland last, Saturday. He retained on Motk rlav. John C. is at present mail. agent on the Westside railroad. Quite a number of Melons, were in attendance at the funeral: sewioee. of the late Mr. Wewtwfc on Wednesday, from Lebanon and other points. Dr. Alexander was in the city on Wednesday, looking much thin-, net than we ever saw him. The. Doctor's many friends will be glad to hear that he is once more able to, be among them. Baker Gay nd wife were in, city yesterday.
