K. O. Z. FROM LAKE COUNTY. Editor Gazette : 1 will give you a few item3 from this out of the way place, hop ing they may be of some interest to your readers. We have had a very severe winter here, the coldest ever experienced by the oldest settlers. The snow fell about the middle of December to the depth of sixteen inches, and has been on the ground all winter; it is thawing a little now. There trill be a good many cattle lost here some estimate one fourth. The thermometer has been as low as thirty-two degrees below zero. Some of the stockmen are preparing to start out to Christmas Lake to move the cattle that are around there to Peter creek. Tiine3 have been pretty du'l here this winter. On Christmas George Small gave a dance which was quite a success, although it stormed so that none of the young ladies could come from Summer Lake valley. On new years a lot of the boys went down to Paisley to attend a ball and had a good time. They have a good school running in Paisley, and they say the Professor is an honor to the town. Subscriber.

We are informed by Mr. G. H. Ryeeraft, that on last Monday Mr. Willis Vidito, of Alsea valley, while cross ing the Alsea river with a load of hay, upon which were his wife and babe, drove upon a sunken root which inclined the wagon so much that Mrs. Vidito ami the babe were thrown into the water. Mr. V, at once jumped to the rescue, but the current being very rapid, the wife and babe were carried under a drift tome 30 feet aud emerged be low it before he could get to them. They all drifted some GO feet further down before a landing was effected, when they discover ed that the babe was gone. Mrs. V. was entirely exhausted, and while struggling in the chilling water was unconscious of having relaxed her hold upon the child. After getting his wife safely ashore, Mr. V. went in search of the babe, which was found dead some distance below. Efforts were made to resuscitate it, but to no avail. Mr. V. having but one arm, had to strugg e man fully to save his wife, who is quite a large woman. The loss of the child falls heavily upon them, and they have the sympathy of they entire community.

The weather is now the principal topic of interest and discussion in this locality, with snow six inches deep and still coming down. The prospect for putting in early crops is rather slim. I just saw one disgusted farmer passing slowly by who's lip almost touched the ground. Cat tle and horses are in good condition, but hogs and scabby sheep are going fast to that bourne from whence no hog or sheep ev er returns. The air is rank with carcasses. The wheat sown in the fall is hardly above ground, if it has grown at all it is beneath the soil. Business is lively here at the Burg. Cros no & Connor are doing first rate merchandiz ing, they sell a great many goods. This is one of the best stands in the county for a store. I believe it is their intention to close out and settle up all their business this fall, and retire, having made money enough. Lark Price aud Wm. Hall are running a first class 1 laoksmith shop are over crowded with' wWk. M. P. and James Newman in tend putting up another shop shortly.

It seems that the day of Rail Roads has just dawned in Oregon; last week the Ga zette touched up a little the Yaquina Rail Road Company. The people here are get ting somewhat ueasy about this road. They begin to think that the 35,000 has not been sown on good ground. It was promised by the company that the road would be speedi ly completed. We are not disposed to growl for trivial causes, but the company should either build the road at once or else refund the money paid them. If a a company for a cert-tin sum agrees to do a certain piece of work, it ought to be held to the contract. . John Milton. King's Valley, March 4. protection of salmon It may not be generally known that the law prohibiting the taking ot salmon is now in operation. This law was enacted by the legislature of our state at the last session, and an exactly similar law is in force in Washington territory. It declares that "it shall not be lawful to take or fish for sal mon in the Columbia river or its tributaries, by any means whatever during the month of March, August and September, nor in the weekiy close times in the months of April, May, June and July : that i3 to say between the hours of six o'clock in the afternoon of each and every Saturday, until six o'clock in the afternoon of Sunday following. " It will be observed that fishing for salmon "by any means whatever," is prohibited through out the entire month of March, and there is an equal prohibition aud penalty against purchasing any salmon caught within or dur ing the month. The penalty for either act is a fine of not less than five hundred nor more than one thousand dollars for the first of fense, and for each aud every subsequent of fense, not less than one thousand dollars, to which may be added at the discretion of the court imprisonment in the county jail for a term not exceeding one year. It will be ob served that the law is a very stringent one. The penalty falls with the same severity up on the purchaser as upon the catcher of the fish ; and fishermen and fish dealers, as well as those who buy fish for their tables, would do weil to take note of the law and be on their guard. It is proper enough that sal mon' should be protected at proper seasons, else they will soon be exterminated. Every body should have an interest in enforcing the law. Daily Oregonian, March 6th.

Democrats are unalterably opnos ed to f nepotism.'' Haven't tlK-y hurled llie thunders of their righteous indignation against it for years, fer reting out all the brothers aud Fislers and uncles and aunts and cousins to whom Republicans have ever shown official favor and drawn upon their imaginations to multiply the ac'ual number ten fold in order to find proper scope for their feelings ? Their last dodge is to ruin this " nepot business" by a competition that drives everything before it. In or der to succeed they practice it on a scale limited only by their opportuni ties and the number of place seekers who are related to them. Take the item of clerks on Senate committees, a Democratic field under the present regime. The salaries of these clerk ships are $2,000 to $2,500 per annum, ind among the clerks are sons of Senators Eaton, Morgan, Vance, Johnston, Withers, Wallace and Voorhees. Besides these, the son-in-law of Senator McDonald, the nephew of Senator Saulsbury and the son of Senator Voorhees law partner are provided for. This is all right, and we only refer to it to show the dif ference between ''Democratic preach and Democratic, practice." Portland Daily Bee, of Feb. 28lh.

It seems sometimes a3 if railway and steamboat accidents moved in cycles, so regularly do they come and go.
