A Fatal Fiojit. Information was re celved here yesterday ol an affray at Ger vats, says the Statfsma, which will proba biy ic.uit is the death of Robert Krebs, one of the participants. It appears that Krebs, whose home U near Brooks, a few miles this side of Gervala, was drinking in a saloon at Gervals with Charles At wood, a section boss on the O. k C, when they commenced disputing with each other over their respective physical prowess,each claiming to be the "best man' It was fi nally decided that they should settle the matter at once bv going outilde of the city limits and fighting it out. Krebs came out ahead ; but afterwards three men In the owd attacked him. and one named At- wood stabbed him, probably fatally. Sarcastic The Corvalils Timt lit a long'artkle attacks the O. P. road in a savage manner, among other things saying they hare purchased the press to be silent. The road may possibly runtwoofthe Corval- ts papers: hut it doesn't the Democrat; at the sa.ne time we appreciate what a great service it has done for the valley, and are willing to overlook some of their bit faults. for they seem to pursue the same courae taken by railroads and people cenerallr. that U, get all they can for the le 1st price regardless of means. A Fat Office Then Mr. Jason Wheeler tells the Democrat an interest ing Incident in connection with hi ex periences as sheriff from 1848 to 185a In the spring of 1&49, every county officer but himself got the gold fever and went to California. He had Incurred an exnenae of summoning a jury, but never re ceived arrent pi it as there was no court to allow It. During-hl: term of office he only made $3.50 in cash as' sheriff, a um which would not, of course, suit the sheriff ef the present day. To Let.--"That suggestive sign, To Let,' is beginning to appear on several handsome buildings in Pendleton. 'What's the matiegsvith Hunt's railroad for a rem edy? Ech answers: 'It's all right." Property owners should atk lhermclvts the above queatlon a thev paaa by litM va cant buildings." E. O. Any town to pros per must put Its hands down in its iockets, even if it hurt, and that is the trouble at endleton. The wealthy men wont do it. Lookivc Out For No. i.-Ve used to think it was Portland against the rest of Oregon but the following makes it look as if it Is to be Astoria againt the ret of us: "We hope Cleveland will veto the river end harbor bill . It is a useless waste of monev trrlng to remove the sand bars earbt. Helens and In the Willamette. Every June freshet will undo the work of a $100,000 appropriation. Theriver never can be deepened as long as these freshets oecur. Thece Is no need of ships going any farther that Astoria to load. Portland has seen her beat days as a shipping port " The Muddiest. When we get to feel ing dubious about our own muddy streets and a few sick cases around, we should read such items as the following written from Spokane Falls to an exchange : "This is the muddiest place in the North west, and very unhealthy ; no less than tour or five being planted every day .though the papers are very quiet about it. The principal disease is typhoid fever, although there are a number of fatal cases of pneu monia. There is one case of small pox." Principal Topics. At the present time the Roseburg papers are quarrelling about a poor farm contract, the Pendleton papers are kicking at the lack of enter prise of their citizens, the Salem papers are agitating a woolen mill, the Aj4JQI!er are trying to nave commerce cton at tri. door, the Ooruallis.nd Albany papers are m at - S . w- ef xuu 01 wregon racjnc matters, and l'ort tana papers or woodv. Didx't Succeed, Mis.. Hieadle In forms the Democrat that while at Shcdd her brother-in-law, Mr. Schaeffer made a desperate effort to keep possession of her adopted daughter, Minnie, resulting in an interesting episode. Mrs. Cheadle came out ahead, as is her custom, and we under stand came very near giving Mr. 3. a black eye. Another Fraud School directors throughout the state are warned of the ar rival of map swindlers. Two maps worth one dollar are sold 'for five under a pre tense that a new law compels the directors to have maps hung in the school house. There is no such law and school directors will do well to watch out tor the schemers Will Stand Anything. J. W. Craw ford yesterday received an order from Monmouth, Illinois, for a pair of Mongo lian pheasants to be turned loose on the prairie as an experiment to see if they can Stand the winters. The birds will be ship ped in a few days. Statesman. Illinois will hereafter take a back seat fl a wheat and corn state. A Surprise, Quite a oumbe r of young ladies and 5 oung gentlemen, friends of Wm Stites called unexpectedly at the residence of the la'.ter's parents in genuine surprise fashion last Thursday. The evening was passed in games, social chat and hearty holiday good cheer. . r Another Effort to be Made. Mr. Hoag, with some more of Whlteliw'e wreckers, is on his way North,for the pur pose of making another effort to raise the sunken "Yaquina Uay," which he seems to think can possibly be done. The chances are nOw against it, though.' River Traffic The O. R. & N. now has two steamers on the Upper . Willam ette, the Accident and Champion , and as the Oregoi Pacific has . more freight on hand than it can ship, the former company necessatfly has theinside track. Theriver now is just in its glory for navigation. Children Cry for. Buekp Thieves. The Corvalils; Timet has a long, labored article on the subject of the proclamation Usued by his Excellency the Mayor of that city, requesting people from other towns and cities not to attend the second annual ball given by the mili tary company of Corvalils, for the reason that grave fears were entertained that small pex would be spread in that city The Timet after aaylng a great many hard things about Albany, as a petulant boy will when he loses hi. temper, says : "Perhaps there was no danger of spreading the dis ease, for It has been well said that a man that would take the small pox from an Al banylte would steal sheep." Now let us see. The Mayor and peoplo of Corvalils were so fearful that small pox would spread in that city that the Mayor made a public request that parlies iroin Albany should remain at home. None but sheep thieves would take the small pox from an Albany Ite, therefore the people of Corval Us are regarded as sheep thieves else their Mayor would have had no fears about small pox spreading. None but a Corval ils paper would have thought of placing Corvallla people under such a cloud as this. the Timet ' unfortunate. Settled.-Corvalils Thursday is said to have been a diminutive Chicago for awhile. Over three hundred railroad men were there holding meetings, proposing and threatening. The matter was finally settled late In the afternoon by the railroad agreeing to pay the men and the work of cashing time checks was begun and com pleted this marnlnir. With their pocket full 01 monev, about $10,000 being paid out.they pamicu me town reu, aa it were, the sa loons reaping a big harveat. Men who cried the loudest fur their pay by this time have sunk eyery cent of it. What strange mortals men are. The railroad company Is entitled to great credit for the manner in which they settled the matter. Had it cone unsettled bridges would per haps have been burned and property ecn erally destroyed. Held Mr. Lewis Taylor, the railroad man who painted the town red the other evening, was tried before Justice Hum phrey last'Frlday on the charge of an as sault with a dangerous weapon, and after a hard fight held to await the action of the grand jury under fjso'bonda. In the after noon he was tried on the second charge of assault with a dangerous weapon and held under the same sum to await the action of he grand jury, Mr. Tavlor has been run ning a pack train. lie had $137 when ar rested, and we are informed a certificate of depokit for $1300; but this is uncertain. Kiuht here it roar be remarked Albanv doesn't propose to The painted red, or green or any other color, and it will pay for strangers to hold ihelr peace. Crook Count Following are the new city officers of Prineville : President of Counci', Arthur Hodges ; Councilman, Percy D Da via, John Claypool, I A Dout hit and Ed N White : Recorder. M 11 Hell ; City Attorney, E Darnea ; Treas urer, John H Templctou ; Marehat, C M Char' ton.... Stock men say that the grass Is growing finely, having already attained a height of over two inches. It Is also said that the late abundant rains have furnished pools of water all over the desert.... There exists quite a am ill pox "scare" in Prine ville at the present time. There la really little or no cause for it. We have grave doubts cf the existence of a case of small pox in Crook county, and if there Is one, as has been reported, we see no cause for yelling before being hurt Born, at Warm Springs Agency, Dec nth, iSSS,to the wife of C !I Walker, a son. Mother and child doing well AVw. " A Challenge. "The Albany papers are bellyaching and poking fun at the re quest issued by Mayer Lee in regard to the military ball. The Herald says all sorts of funny things and calls us tender feet, while the Democrat sarcastically says: 'Varily they have some very brave soldiers at Corvalils.' If you think E' company hasn't got some fighting metal, they might meet your brass buttoned gen try half way and fight you to a finish just for practice." Time. Come on and wt will agree to fumigate particularly for the occasion, and if there Isn't some fun along the Willamette then our name la not Den nis. Will Move To Ellensburo Mr Oley Wood worth, druggist at G. L. Black man's, has bought the drug store of Dr. Ilenton at Ehensburg, W, T and will move to that city to reside in a couple weeks. Mr. Wood worth is an experlnced ruK understanding the business thorouzhTyr-arid has a remarkably eood opening at Ellensonrg. We understand Mr. Al. Long will go witn1lni.A broth er of Mr. Woodworm will succeed him in Mr. Black man's store. Spelled Wrong The name of Mr. Kno, whose marriage was given Thurs day in the Democrat, should have been iclghton Instead ot Lay ton. lie was named after Mr. Lelghton Blaln, of this city, and was by that gentleman hand somely caned on Christmas. A gold head cd cane and a good wife at one time ought to make any young man happy, and this one and his estimable wife deserve all the happiness to be obtained. The First Siierip.f-- Thursday in re ferring to the death of Mrs. Isaac Hutch ins.fwe mentioned her husband as having been the first sheriff of Linn county. We learn that we were mistaken. The first gentleman to have that honor was Mr, Jason Wheeler, now a resident of Albany, who was elected in 1848 and served for two years, taking the census of the county in 1850, When elected there were about 300 votes cast in the county. Mr. Hutchins -was the second sheriff, being elected in 1850, serving one term of two years. The Agricultural Coclege. The Board of Directors of the State Agricul tural College met In Corvalils Thursday The Board resolved to ask the legislature for an appropriation of f 20,000 to purchase necessary buildings, etc., in order to carry but the provisions of the Hatch bill,' and $ 10,000 with which to purchase 200 more acres of land,-also to continue the suit with the Southern M E Church. Not Serious. Information received here yesterday from Croston is to the ef fect that Uncle Lewis Pettijohn is recover ing from the effect of the injuries he re ceived from a fall at Lebanon the other day and that, although he is still confined to his bed, he expects to get out again in few days. Statesman. Farmers, if yon want the best harness all and made, go to E.L. Power, next toDem Farmers' Conor ess. According to the address just Issued by the Farmers' con gress, "Whlla the Increase of farm values from i860 to 1880 was a per cent., that 0 other values was ao percent And while the agricultural Industry represents 44 per cent, of those engaged In 'gainful occupa tions,' the agricultural class holds only per cent, of the wealth of the nation. And although the amount of wealth produced by the agriculturists has quadrupled dur ing the last two decades, their proportion ot the result of our general Industry has shrunk from 6per cent, to 37 per cent, while that 01 thosa engaged largely In modifying and transporting what has been produced by the farmer ha increased dur the time from about 30 per cent, to nearly 75 per cent." The congress give a the cause, the national banking system, high sr.d unequel taxation, vast monopolizing transportation companies, trusts, and the legalized liquor traffic. Claim Jumping In our real estate col umn ' Friday wa the following "E. O. Smith, Golden Ridge mining claim, by virtue of 2oo worth of work." It seem that thl claim belong to A. B. Woodln, W. F. Read and others, of Albany. In order to hold a claim It Is necessary to do a certain amount of work on It during the year. Dr. Smith, of Salem, claiming this had not been done lumped the claim and In order to get a title to It did the necessary amount ot work and has been using every means possible to keep the lawful owneis away from It until the end of the year. Mr. woodln, accompanied by J ion. w. K. Bllyeu left next morning forthe scat of war for the purpose of asserting the rights of himself and associate and downing this Salem claim jumper. To-day Masscr and Bllyeu are to be tried near Mehama on a charge made by Dr. Smith of trespassing on me ciaira Craxt Over Religion-"James G. BIrdsey, sheriff of Jackson county, and Wm. M.

StaetmaTt. Don't see where the religion come In. Want a $5000 Bonus While Salem is getting woolen mills and railroad it Is liable to loose some of It present wealth. Mr. J. M McAllister, of that city, writes Cherry Si Parke, of this city, that a com pany of five, Including himself, has been formed there for the manufacture of stoves, j and they agree to move to this city, lease the foundry plant for a term of years and manufacture stoves, in consideration of a bonus of $5000, We present the matter for the consideration of our citizens.

Salem people are dead In earneefabout getting a railroad from Astoria through that city, and wilt send a committee to Astoria wlthli a frw days to confer with Astoria men in refer ence to the subject The building of this road 1 one of the most important enter prises of the present time, and the valley city that gels the road will reap a big bene- nu wnat doe Albany intend to do.

Call made in surgeon city or 1 ne inventor 01 tne roller skate made ov er $100,000 notwithstanding the fact that his pat lent had nearly expired before its value was ascertained, As emperor of Germany, young William re ceives no salary, but as king of Prussia he has 500,000 a year,so he continues to keep house and get along fairly well. Democrats of the House are preparing to make a vigorous fight on the tariff ques tion If the Senate bill should pass and come before that body. This Is right. Let the educational work go on. The democratic position I right on thl question and time will prove It. There are ome hopeful sign thit Mr. Harrison will enforce the civil service and tenure of office law almost as rigidly a President Cleveland has. Should he do so the principle of true civil service reform will begin to take such root In the minds of the people by the time of ' the close of his term that the people thereafter will be unwilling to return to the old spoilt sys tem. Senator Ingalls regards Government office a existing for the purpose of paying his debu. I the men who work, "spend money" and get up in the night fur Ingalls have a claim on the Gov ernment, why should he not discharge hi butch ers and tailor bills by getting them a fat ap pointment? The theory of personal proprietor ship in the Government patronage is a danger, ous one Loth at the muzzle and the breech. John Wanamaker I at the head of a movement to organize a great Presbyterian club at Philadelphia . If John Is as successful In raising funds for that club as he was In raising funds to buy vote at the late election, the under taking will be eminently successful and the great merchant will have earned teat In the cabinet of the club.a he Is said to have done In Harrison' cabinet. The total Immigration of foreigner Into our state from and during the year iSio to and Including the year 1887 amount to 15.632,771. How such a mass of foreign population can be assimilated with our own people is one of the wonders of the century There Is danger that thl free country be come an asylum for foreign criminals and paupers, without the exercise of the most rigid scrutiny on the part of our Govern ment official. The reign of terror In some part of the East, caused by White Cap outrages, has aroused the attention of the authorities. Effective measure are at last being taken to bring the offenders to justice. It Is high time. Whatever good may at first have been done by the cowardly miscreant who go abroad at night to whip and abuse those suspected of immoralities, was soon more than offset by greater evil. The failure of justice In civilized court doe not justl fy a return to the method ol barbarisoi or semi-savagery. Evil that law cannot cure are best reached by the education of an enlightened public sentiment - Some Albany republicans are scheming to secure the office of U. S. Marshal for Oregon for H. P. May, of The - Dalle. Thl is said to be a move to antagonize the claim of N. B. Humphrey for that office. IfthereUto be a "clean weep" under Harrison, which many believe, then party service is to be the chief recommendation for office, and In this sense we think the Capt has fairly won the office. Let any one who knows reflect upon the party service rendered by the Captain during the June and November campaigns, and especially the valuable service rendered hi party In the late city electlon.and he will say the Captain haa earned the U. S. Marshalshlp. Replying to the questlon,"ShouId women propose marriage i the Rev. De Witt Tal mage answered : "Why,you are centuries too late in asking that question. Women always have proposed,and always will pro pose. Words are very weak things com pared with womanly affability and lovell ness. The most splendid being on earth is a good woman, and when, with all her at tractiveness, she makes up her mind that it would be well for her to be the wife of some good man, and that It would be equally well for him, she captures him as easily a a regiment capture the corporal It does not make any difference whether her tongue proposes or not, her eyes pro pose, her smile proposes, her mode o ent ering a room propone. Until a man gets from a woman ft proposition of thai style he had better not make a proposition of his own unless he wants to be made to feel ridiculous the rest of his lifetime." A very curious number is i42,857,which multiplied by 1, 2, 3, 4, , or 6 gives the same figures In the same order, beginning at a different point ; but if multiplied by 7 gives all nines. Multiplied by 1 it equals 142,857, multiplied by 2 it equals 285,714, multiplied by 3 equals 428,751, multiplied by 4 equals 571 428, multiplied by 5 equals 714,285, multiplied by 6 equals 857,142 multiplied by 7 equals 999,999. Multiply 142,857 by 8 and you have 1,142,856. Then add the first figure to the last and you have 142,857, the original number, the figures exactly the same as at the star. . Another mathematical wonder is the following : It Is discovered that the multiplication ef 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 l by 45 give 444444,444.445, Reversing the i.rder of the dlgets and mul tiplying 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 by 45 we get a re ult equally curious, 5.555.555.505- If we take 123456789 as the multiplicand and interchanging the figure of 45 take 54 as the multiplier, 6,666,666,606. Return ing to the multiplicand, 98765432 and 54 as the multiplier again, wc get 53, 333.333,34 aH 3's except the first and last figures, which together read 54, the multl pller.
