Two brothers, John and Henry Kay-burn, ltave been living on a farm about four miles east of Sublimity. The former who is 30 years old is a farmer; the latter is a plasterer by trade and is five yean older. They have had trouble several times but it has always been the fault of Henry. Last Tuesday morning Henry got up about 5 o'clock to build a fire- A few minutes later John came into the room; and noticing that the fire was not burning very well, be poked it with a stick. The older brother took offence at this and without a word of warning siezed his brother and tried to throw him down. The other, being the quicker tf the two, resisted the attempt and instead of being thrown he threw his brother. The wrestling match commenced again as soon as Henry could regain his feet but the third time that John threw him Henrv lay quite still, complaining of a severe pain in his back. As he seemed Itadly hurt Dr Kitchen was summoned from Stayton. who reported that the man's spine was injured. They nut him in bed, and did all they could for him. but he kept getting worse and died Wednesday morning at 1 :30. None of the neighbors blame John Reybum in the least. He is a highly respected member of the community in which he Urea and a pleas ant mac to meet. Salem Independent.

Big Pot atobs. It is said that one day a year or so ago a t'endieton green grocer received an order for a carload of wtatoaa. There was nothing extraordinary about this onler. tut it was attainted to a postscript which admonished the deafer to let no pota to be found in the entire order that weighed less man a pound. And the tot remark able part or the incident is found is the fact th.'t the order was filled, even to the postscript, inside of forty-eight hours. This an verv readily tie believed when it is learned that when Senator MattWk came down from Pendleton Wednesday he brought with him four potatoes tht weighed ten and a quarter pounds.

Thk Oregon Pacific -A formal sale of the Oregon Pacific is being arranged for about Dec. 1st, the object being to deter mine the relative rights of the different creditors. Several things indicate action on the road. People say the recent trip of the union f acme special indicated some thing: but then speoial trips are becoming cliestnuttv. It is now learned, says an ex change, that a surveying party has itist ar rived ut The Dalles after a seven-weeks trio through Kastern Oregon, their object lieing to timl a teasible route tor a railroad from that point through the interior to the line of the Oregon Pacific in Iake county. Just who is behind the project it iB impossible at present to state, but officials of both the Northern Pacific and I won Pacific in thi city disclaim any connection with the en terprise, lhe surveyors followed the Lieu tenant Norton survey from lhe Dalles to the Deschutes, which was found to be the most difficult part of the proposed road, but the average grade will not exceed CO feet to the mile. Striking that river at the agency ferry, thev followed up the stream to the mouth of Crooked river, a distance of 20 miles. From this point they went to Prine ville. in Crook county, 45 miles distant.

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next week- The association has this summer spent a large amount of money in fixing up the track, so that it is now one of the fastest tracks on the North Pacific coast. Purses aggregating $2100 are offered.

A Goon Report. Some time ago the Democrat stated that an application bad been made for the resumption of business by the Linn County National Bank, but that it would probably not be done until matters picked up some in the fall. The Democrat is now informed that this will be done within a few weeks. Financial matters have improved sufficiently to make the move a safe one, and it is one that will lie of general benefit to the community. It . i to be hoped it may prove true. Ofk tii e Track. Engine No 4 on the i iregon Pacific was rounding the curve on the switch near the Red Crown mills this morning when the rails spread, throwing the engine off the track except the front leaders and one drive wheel. The track at this place is weak, and one man remarked hardly strong enough for a handearto trav el oyer safely. It required several hours work to get it on again. At the head of Silver creek. P25 miles from Prineville. thev reached the snrveved mnte of the Oregon Pacific. and for the entire dis tance the grade would be very light.

Referring to the state ment in the Courier late week, which said that Phil Nets k Co expected to gather W.- 000 pound of hops from their 2-acre yard toe Aiumy kkmockat asks: "Why is U that a few Linn county yard have onlr neUcd 30M or O0 pound to the acre? Three reasons may be given for such unprofitable crops: In the first place there is some land used that is wholly unfit for hop land, in the second place there never was a soil that was cultivated year after year that will give the best results unWca fertilized: and lastly, there are growers who are never able to remember Mr J odd statement that "weeds will not grow in the snaoe ot nop. Harnsburg Courier. Wast a Receive.- Receiver BealL of the Linn County National Bank, has made an application for the appointment of a re ceiver to take charge of the property of J L Cowan's Lebanon bank.

No one, acquained with the circumstances. will for a moment believe this, and if the case de pended upon that question alone there would be no doubt as to the outcome. The trus tees, we understand, will defend their posi tion and not permit it to go by default. Decidkdlv Primitive. The Eugene Journal tells the following. A primitive outfit passed onr office Tuesday afternoon, consisting of a low wheeled wagon without a cover, containing a few boxes and some rolls of bedding hud on boards, with a young woman and four small children perched up among the bedding. It was drawn by a yoke of oxen and a young man walked in front and led the near ox with a rope fastened to a ring in the nose. The woman got out in the mud to bold the ox in the street while the man purchased some feed, and the children then got out and were all barefooted and bare legged up to their knees. They started off walking, the woman carrying the gun and the man lead ing the ox. Was Ark est Ei) For It.

Once more the gallant yacht men hold sway in the beautiful harbor which leads to America's great metropolis. Several years fiave elapsed since lie English sportsmen have mustered courage enough to send over a boat to try for the cup held by America. Since the Valkyrie left Kngland, to try for the cup, which the Americans will defend, local yachtsmen have been preparing for the trial races. Last Saturday the first race was run over the triangular course, in the lower bay. The contestants were the Colonia Jubilee and Pilgrim, of the Boston Yacht Cluo, and the Vigilant, of the New York Yacht Club. The Vigilant won Saturday as well as on Monday. The gallant craft cleanly outsailed her Boston antagonists and waa chosen as the defender of the trophy won by the Mayflower, Volunteer and J'uritan. this is the tirst time that the defender of the honor of American yachtsmen hails from New York. All the previous yachts have come from 'Jos ton, and it is natural that the members and friends of the New ork Yacht club are jubilant.

KoKLeca ver bullion in the treasury ''' ak a corre spondent of The Journal. It is the excess of bullion over the amour.t coined in silver dol'ars under the operation of the Illand Allison and Sherman acts regulating the coinage of silver. The govertrnent paid the market price for the silver it purchased, bat necessarily coined it, as long as the coinage continued, on the existing ratio of 16 to f , as compared with gold. Han ounce of silver was purchased for 90 cents, its coinage value being 91,29, the seignior age amounted to 39 cents, and this is called "government profit" by some, as it would be if the value of silver remained at 90 cents an ounce and the government was able tc maintain the parity of the two met als. Webster defines the term as follows: seigniorage is something claimed or j taaen oy virtue ot sovereign prerogative: specifically, a charge or toll deducted from bullion brought to a mint to ne coinjd. John Stuart Mill, one of the greatest of the economic writers of modern limes, says: government, however, throws the ca se of coinage, es is reaassisblg. tne notaers, by making a charge to cover the expense (which is done by giving back rather less than is received in bullion, and is called 'levying a seigniorage'), the coin will rise to the extent of the seigniorage above the value of the bullion." This is, no doubt, the basis for the claim o! the advocates of free silver coinage, that with such free coinage the price of silver wouid naturally rise to its ratio ral -ae. That would be the case, perhaps, if he market price were bat little below the ratio value, bat it is a theory that cannot s'aad when the depreciation is 40 per cent or more, as in the case of silver at the present time. . The United States has been buying silver for fifteen years on a cost stantly falling market. According to a re cent treasury statement the silver bullion in the treasury has cost the govern men, on an average about 93 cent aa ounce, while Use present price is bit 73 cents or a trifle more, thus the government has sustained a net loss of 20 cents an ounce on all the silver bullion that it has purchased since 1878, and the "seigniors ge" is reduced by that figure. If silver continues to fall the government low will increase rapidly, be cause it will attach to every ounce that was purchased at higher figures.
