FENCE MADE.
The She-Merger Combination Fence
It is as atroog as plank fencing,
It will last throe timfts as long.
It does not injure stock, being as visible
as plank.
It protects all your crops from all stock
bred upon a farm.
It is dog proof, protecting sheep from
dogs and wolvos.
U Is endorsed by 210,000 of the best
far r era In the West, as rally filling every
claim we make for it.
It will turn a pig, bull, horse, hog, calf,
sheep deg or hall grown fowl.
It will save every farmer 8140 00 a mile
on every mile of fenca he builds.
It is the strongest, cheapest, most dura
bin, and perfect farm fence on earth.
It forms the most perfect combination
of two materials, making them inseparable
and equally durable, combining as it
doe, the neatness and elegance of iron
with the strength and durability of steel.
(Planed and painted, it makes a fine fence
for the city.)

Sunday during a thunderstorm at the
Warm Spring agency two Indian women
were struck by lightning, one being killed
instantly and the other seriously injured
inc Killing of a squaw by such a means

They cannot well understand how an In

they are considerably exercised over the
affair. .. .Persons who have been on the
range recently say the grase Is growing
fine on the open hills, but in the timber it
is not doing so well, and summer range
for sheep will not be any too plentiful .

Mao. The folowinar from a Portland

onions spoiled: W. Hunt returned
yesterday from Albany, wkere he made
arrangement for shipping to Wnllula the
stores and powder, tools, etc., which hare

tract on the Oregon Pacific. He says some
of his powder fat spoiled, and of course, all
the potatoes, onions and such like stuff Is
worthless. When he looked over the sup
piles brought in and thought of all the
money it had coat and the money and time
wasted In hauling It out Into the mountains

At Lkbaxok.- There was a lecture In
Union Hall, Wednesday night by R. P.
Putman, subject "Free Thought." The
entire speech was a violent attack on the
fundamental principles of our American
government, denouncing the State and
Nation for its recognition of God for hav
ing eltapian's In the army and legislative
department, for thanksgiving proclama
tions ; for it christian Sabbath and for not
taxing church property, lie refused to
divide time with Rev. Clark Braden of
Kansas, whereupon the latter gentleman
and the audience repaired to the Presbyte
rian Church where the replv.was given.
Mr. Putman's speech was ful'iof bitter In-
vectlve against the State and Nntion for
its christian civilization and he denounced
the W. C. T. U.as a political hack andde
graded machine . Mr. Uradcn is a dear
and candid rcasoncr, and replied in a for
cible, dignified manner for the defense of
our constitution and American christian
civilization. T.

Hermann called upon the signal service

weather siernals which have been maintain

chief s'umal officer, cave Mr. Hermann nn

Portland Volunteer Firemen's Association
Thursday evening was one of the most ar
bitrary sod unjust pieces of business ever
recorded In fire matters, and will everlast.
ptgly stow away Portland as a city for fire
tournaments. The Association, regardless
of the decisions of the judges, a. I honorable
men, took the championship race from
East Portland and gave It to Vancouver,
gave the speed race fairly won by Albany
to Portland, on the word of one of the
time keepers, a contemptible fellow from
all accounts, who made the time :'t sec
onds fast for the benefit of Portland, and
gave the 250 yard race to Campbell, a
Portland man, though Cameron was de
clared by the judges to have tied him. Any
way what authority had the Awx-lath ii to
go behind the decisions of the judges, and
only on the word of Portland men and In
their favor. The whole thing was run in a
"Cheap John," one-cent stvle, In strong
contrast to the way Seattle bus prepared
for the Northwest tournament. In refer-
ence to the speed race one of the Portland
team said "you can beat us running but you
can't In taking time." The Albany boys
feel u if they had been treated in a yery
contemptible manner.
An IcRNT. A Brownsville corres
pondent of a Pendleton paper gives the fol
lowing Incident: "It is rather a peculiar
circumstance that two brothers, separated
by hundreds of miles, should be candidates
for the same office at the same election In
their respective home; yet such was the
case with Mr. Thomas Kirk and his brother
Mr. Riley Kirk, who were candidates for
representatives on the republican ticket in
Cmatil'a and Linn counties. The popular
ity of both men was fully demonstrated by
their ruuning ahead of their tickets. Yet
while Mr. Thus. Kirk was elected, his
brother was defeated by a small majority."
The same writer savs of Brownsville: "It
Is a pretty little village of seven or eight
hundred Inhabitants, nestled among the
low lying hilts on the Calipooia river, near
Its confluence with the Willamette, 104

Of Mutual Hr.vrkit. Geo. E. Hard v.
of Lebanon, has made the'f olio wing propo
sition to the people of Lebanon : "I agree
to construct a telegraph line from here to
Albany and operate the same at the usual
rale, established by all other telegraph
lines, to furnish everything and keep it in
repair, on condition of a bonus of three
hundred dollars; thatis if the citizens will
donate that much I will furnish the bal
ance and obligate myself to operate the
line." If the people of that city do not ac
cept this proposition at double quick speed
they hardly know how their bread is but
tered, una of the crying needs ot that vi
cinity Is a telegraph line to Albany from
that city.
