To the Editor of the Register :
This fine weather is being improved by
our citizens In building.
E. V. Jack is putting tip a flue building
next to the meat market.
The new drug store is nearly finished.
and a flue one it will be.
I. F. Vcnner lias got his new drug storo
running, and lias a nice place.
We came near having a tire here last
week in the Brownsville hotel, but it wis
peedily extinguished.
The sawmill is now running with a full
crew of hands, cutting ties for the R. R.
Co., and several teams are drawing them
out and scattering them along the grade
ready for use. The I rack laying progresses
slowly as the Company are unable to get
bridge timbers fast enough.
Mr. M. Hart took unto himself a wife
just lately, and several other young men
here are about reaJy to follow his noble
exRin::!e.
F. .1. Channalierry is the happy tather
ol twin bo vs. and he bears the honor as
well a any royal American citizen possi
bly could do under the circumstance.
Rev. C. Sperry has moved all his worldly
goods to the hunch grass, country is going
to preach to the good people of Ileppner.
Considerable grain is being sown in this

weavers to run iiiirbt in fact they have
ln'cn running nights for Pome time past,
and have not begun to catch up with the
order. Already there is some ta'k of en
:u;iiig the factory, hut it Hancock hail
been electiil President there would have
been no ueeti ot enlarging any of our mills
and factories.
Politics very qr.tct here.
The Democrats try to srt Hp a claim to
New York, as of course they non't like to
give up the ghost entirely, o out of pity
we can v-iy well afford fo let them hug
this delusive phantom to their breasts
awhile, as it stems to soothe their lacerat
ed fielhigs. Some lil,- the hoy who cut

The Chinese wash-liou.ses have all closed
up business, as they say they can not afford
to pay $5 a mouth license, and there is. no

good people of this city that it lias created.
As we said last week, we see no good to
accrue from the ordinance, except to com
pel our people cither to run their own
wash-houses or pay double prices for wash
ing. A light tax might have been paid,
but 5 per mouth is too large for the busi
ness. On Monday night out at tlie depot a
large bonfire was burning, and the hotel

14 rajs to Insure.
Business men make the matter of Insur
ing their goods and property of the first
importance, as no man can tell the day
nor the hour in which his projierty may
be damaged or entirely destroyed by fire,
even though he may exercise the greatest
care and watchfulness. Our farmers are
pretty generally making assurance doubly
secure by insuring their grain after plac
ing it in the warehouse. This is wise and
safe, and should be followed by all. In- 1
sure your grain, houses barns, or goods j
of any kind in a sound company, and you
can sleep soundly. Among the soundest I
Insurance companies doing business 5n S,
Oregon, none can lie more hifhly recom-
mended than the Connecticut and the
German-American. It is a noteworthy
tact that both the above - companies paid
every dollar of their losses in the great
Chicago and Boston fires, a fact which
speaks loudly iu their, favor. The instruc
tions to agents in every cie is to find out
speedily the amount of any loss by fire
iu which tlicy are interested, and pay It
to the last farthing. These are the com
panies in which to insure. Mr. Julius
Gradwohl is the accommodating agent lor
both companies iu this city, to whom all
should apply who desire to insure in
sate companies.
