The Assessor plays an Important part ag
a county officer. Upon his good judgment
and absolute impartiall-y depends fsir
and eqniUble valuatlpa,, on a-l property
subject to taxation in the county. It a

Iist Friday a young man named W.'ll.
C. Lorr cotiimitt.'d suicide at Inllas, Polk
county, by shooting himself twice, once hi
the body and tlie other shot in ' the he:ul,
from the effects ot which he died shortly
after. Before shooting himself he made
an attempt to kill a Mrs. I.ongdnn. Lorr
had been nlghtwateb at the Occidental
Hotel, Corv.illis. Mrs. Lnngdon had stop
ped at the hotel some time; during the
time, it is said. Lorr paid her board. Mrs.
Longdon went to Dallas ; on Friday last
Lorr also repaired to Dallas, entered tlie
house where Mrs. Longdon was sitting,
drew a pistol and fired at her. The ball
from the pistol" struck one of' the steel
strips in lier corset and glanced off, tlm
savf'i her lite and merely inflicting a fleh
Wound. .tVlthoBt waiting to .see the
effect of I is shot, Lorr emptied two barrels
of his revolver into his own person, with
the effect above related. Mrs. Longdon
liad' had trouble with her hu-baitd.
who lias sued fbr a divorce. It is further
stated that Lorr Iwd tried to induce Mrs.
Longdon to return with him to Corvallis,
and fai'ir.g, ttied to take her and himself
ont of tlie world: Judge Kelsny was in
the room at the time, sitting near Mrs.
L. who had employed him as !:er attor '
neyi and it iswiW tlie Judge meandered
from- there in good order. Deceased wa
26 years old. The appended letter was
found upon Lorr after his death, hut gives
no clue to tlie cause of his death:
..This deed is not done' through pnrest
excitement, and the world may sympju
tl-ize wi'h me for this fs. prenieditared.
cnuseil J.t thi defeat. It' will leave me
(icnniless in tlie world. I ' was once
brought down to a low degree, but sweet
will be the cup of death lie fore I shall taste
that cup of bitterness ngalii. I am this day
a loser ot mnnv dollars tlie world doi,t
know. Death will be the sweetest cup
liave long tasted. Friends farewell.

Gen. Sherman's rejiort to the house com
mittee on Pacific railroad., in regard to
ttie Xortheru Pacific route, says that in a
military sense,, tlie extension of this rail
road from Bisuiark to the 'Yellowstone,
and up tlie valley ot that river as far as
the mouth of the Btg Horn, will lie beyond
any estimate ot advantage the quartermas
ter general may make., because thi rail
road will transport men and supplies tor
ten If not twelve i months in the year,
while, the Missouri and Yellowstone are
barely navigable for light draft steamers
fort-voornt farthest three months in the
year. The extersiou of tlie road will
stimulate emigrants to occupy tlie line ot
the Yellowstone east ami west to such an
extent as to. form a barrier to nomadic
Indians who linvc lieretofore gone back
and forth from the Sioux , reservation In
the south to British territory Iu tbe nortlt,
and will enable us in a very few years to
give up forts Keogh and Cn-ter. each rr
qnlring for a garrison a -full reeitnent of
infantry. ami four -coiupnnlcs of. cavalry.
These could then be' moved north to the
British line, ottr permanent frontier.' By
this process we divide the iiosttle Sioux
and can subdnw either moiety with more
certainty and much less rost than now.
