A FATAL TRAGEDY.
WILLIAM DOW, OF ALSEA, 13 KILLED WITH
A MUSKET SHOT AT THE HANDS OF
HIS BROTHER ALMAN.
Early Tuesday morning groups of men
stood on the street corners discussing the
tragic shootiDg affray that had occurred at
Alaea daring the previous afternoon. AH
the particulars of the tragedy that had been
received at that time was the statement of
Alman Dow, who had arrived at a late hour
on the previous cveninsr, and"" given himself
into the custody of the sheriff. His state
ment has been corroborated by several of
the residents of that section, who have been
in the city duriug the week. The Dow
family are well known in this city, and
William had the general reputation of being
of a very disagrecablo and quarrelsome dis
position, and had the name of being on the
shoot. Old grudges bad existed between
the brothers for a number of years, and
William who had been absent from the Al-
sea settlement for some time, recently re
turned, and on Monday accompanied by a
younger brother, Prentice, went to Alman's
residence with the ostensible purpose of do
ing hitn up.Jaa fee had been known to make
murderous threats on previous occasions,
and Alman- feared the worst. The two
brothers soon provoked a quarrel with Al
man. and a rough and tumble fight took
place between the latter and i'rentice,
while William held Mrs. Dow to prevent
her ?rom sounding an alarm or making any
interference. Prentice was getting the
worst of the battle and Mrs. Dow and her
four little children were screaming with ter
ror at the top of their voices. William told
Prentice to stand back and give him
chance, and quick as a flash Alraau grabbed
a musket off the bed and discharged its
contents into William's face, who fell to
the floor apparently dead. Mr. and Mrs
Shu IT, the parents of Mrs. Dow, who Jive
but a short distance, arrived on the scene
immediately after the shooting, advised Al
man to proceed immediately to Corvallis
and eive himself up to the authorities.

A. Disreputable Resort. Several
weeks since, a man employed on the new
hotel building, rented the house adjoin
ing Skipton's livery stable, stating that he
wanted it as a residence for himself aud fam
ily. But since that time the people liv
ing and doing business in that part of the
city have bitterly complained of ' the char
acter of the inmates of this place, who have
flaunted their brazen shame in the faces of
the public, aud the most disgusting orgies
are reported to have taken place in and
around the premises. ' The degraded look
ing woman, who apparently presided over
thisj.Hut, would; take occasional leaves of
absence, but always returns more bold and
brazen than ever. Yesterday afternoon ac
companied by a companion of similar ac
comp2iahuients,she made herself disgustingly
conspicious, and a howl of indignation went
up from numerous citizens. About half
past nine o'clock, some one hid on the op
posite side of the street seut a rock crashing
throngh one of the glass windows of the
house, whereupon an individual ostensibly
doing guard duty in the domicile came out
and threateningly flourished a revolver;
soon another rock from some unseen source
went into one of the curtained front win
dows. The man with the gun attempted
to resist arrest, but was taken to jail by
Officer Ervin and Sheriff Osburn, where
another revolver was found on his person.
More stones went through the glass front,
which presented a demoralized appear
ance this morning. This practice of ston-
-ing buildings is to be deprecated, even if
the occupants are obnoxious to the peace
loving public, as there is a lawful remedy
for public nuisances.

A RAILROAD PROJECT.
A CINE FROM EUGENE TO ORYALLI3 ONE
OF THE POSSIBILITIES.
The following from theEugene Register is
worthy the earnest attention of every citi
zen from Newport to Eugene,and a large por
tion of Lane county:
"Some of our leading citizens are discuss-
sing the matter of huihling a railroad from
Eugene to connect with the !Oregon Pacific j
road at Corvallis. - In this way Eugene
would be connected with deep harbor al
ready improved, and the road wrralfc trav
erse a rich country now sparsely settled.
The idea is to run West from Engane to a
point well into the hills, thence through
Monroe and straight to Corvallis. The
country to lie traversed in this way is level
and the road would not be an expensive
one. It has been estimated that the cost
would not exceed $10,000 a mile, and prob
ably not more than $7,008. There would
be.no cuts or fills to amonnt to anything,
and no bridging of consequence. Connec
tion this way would be -of vast benefit to
this part of the country in the matter of
shipping rates. Wheat at Corvallis is al
ways 5 to 6 cents higher tfevn 'it is in this
city, becauso of their advantage in ship
ping, One cent per bushel would carry it
from Eugene to Corvallis. The Oregon
Pacific people have intimated that they
would subsidize such a movement to the
amonnt of forty or fifty thousand dollars,
and the people of Corvallis would assist the
project largely. The right-of-way could be
obtained without trouble, and altogether it
looks like a very feasible project."
Of all the contemplated railroad lines in
Oregon, this one gives promise of surer re
turns and less outlay than any yet pro
jected. This road would tapn rich section
of the country that is comparatively iso
lated from railroad communication, and
would "bring it into close connection with
the best markets and cheapest transporta
tion in Oregon, to say t'uing of the com
mercial traffic that would naturally go over
a line connecting? with the seaboard from
an impo rtant center like Eugene. An im
portaut item in the construction of this
road is the comparatively level country
over which it would pass, thus insuring its
comnletion at a minimum outlay. It would
give Eugene City and Lane county close
connection with San Francisco by a deep
water harbor already improved, that has
no superior between that place and Port-
laud. It would not only afford the mer
chants and consumers of Lane county lower
freight rates on imported goods, but enable
them to get be tter prices or their tt-odircts,
a result that cauuot be obtained in any
other way.
Aside fiom the benefits that would ac
crue to the people of Eugcae and vicinity,
and the country through which this road
would pass, it would tend to build up the
commercial importance of Corvallis as well
as the bay. The advantages of such a road
to Benton comity canuot be overestimated.
CoivallU would certainly derive immense
benefits from being the connecting terminus
of another railroad line, and "will not be
slow in giving such an undertaking sub
stantial encouragement. The building of
this road is not only one of the possibilities,
but oue of the probabilities of the not far
distant future, if all parties interested will
do some earnest and effective work.
No Good Land Lkft. A great many peo
ple are waiting for the Siletz reservation, in
the southern part of Tillamook county, to bo
opened for 'Settlement, believing that this
will furnish them' an opportunity to secure
some fine land. There has been much in
quiry about this and -a commission is now
uegotiating with the Indians for the pur
chase of the land by the government for the
purpose of opening it for settlement. " The
commission ti:id, so the writer is informed,
that all the good land of that reservation
was long ago allotted in severalty to the
Indians, the same as that of the Grand
Ronde reservation. All that remains is
that away back in the mountains. Even
the timber on it will not for a great many
years be of much value, for the Indians own
all the laud in front of it and control all the
water powers, and there will be no way to
get the tiinbef out to market. Visitors to
the coast country have seen a fine lot of laud
on this reservation lying idle, and, supposing
it belonged to the Indians in common, have
been petitioning the federal authorities to
buy it and open it for settlement, with the
result that finally this commission has been
appointed for tho purpose of negotiating
with the Indians to that end. The com
mission finds the state of affairs above set
forth all the best land near the coast al
lotted in severalty, Of course the Indians
do not make much use of this good land.
They wero born tired, and there is ho way
to educate the laziness out of them espec
ially the bucks. The commission has had
several "powwows" wiUi the Indians abont
purchasing from them for the government,
the land that has not been allotted them in
severalty. But the government does not
propose to pay them all the money down.
It will pay them 5 per cent, a year for the
present, and they object to this. They
waut the whole wad to blow in. So the
natter stauds. What the outcome will be
this writer does not venture to predict.
Gen. W. H. Odell and Judge R. P. Boise,
of Salem-, are members of this eommision.
Salem Statesman. The writer of "the
above is slightly misinformed regarding the
quality of land that will be open to' settle
ment on the reservation. The Indians got
most all the open or prairie land, but there
yet remains' considerable good brush land,
also some valuable timber lands aside from
that all-Jtted-to'the Indians. The commis
sion, which Has been in consultation with
the Indiaus for some time, ' has reci m-
mended that each- adult be paid $75 down,
and each little ludian $75 when he becomes
of age, and all to receive 5 per cent, per an
num after the first payment. Every In
dian on' the reservation, small or big, gets
80 acres of laud. There were 532 allot
ments, and there are about 178 adults on
the reservation. The commission recom
mend that these Indiaus be permitted to
become citizens within five years, instead of
twenty-five as now provided by statute.

mouths aud 1C days. -
The funeral 'services which were very im
pressive, were held in the. Presbyterian
church at 2 p. TO. Sunday, and were at
tended by a large concourse of sympathizing
friends. The -Services were under " the
charge of the Masonic fraternity. A special
car from Albany brought a delegation from
the Knights Templar commandry, who
were formed irto line as the escort, fol
lowed by a large number of Master Masons,
a delegation the Eastern Star and mem
bers of the A. O. U. W., all under the di
rection of j&ph Job as grau mnrshal. The
procession marched to the residence of the
deceased, ancLf olio wed the elegantly fljral
decorated casket containing the remains,
carried by tho pall bearers John Burnett,
M. S. Woodcock, Prof. B. J. Hawthorne,
Dr. G. R. Farra. Thomas (Graham
and B. W. Wilson, o the church
where the most impressive exercises were
held. Mrs. F. AL Johnson played a fu
neral march as the procession entered the
church; then the choir reudered a very ap
propriate selection. Revs. Pritchard and
Kantner assisted Dr. Thompson iu the de
votional exercises, who delivered a most
fitting address, replete with beautiful
thoughts, for this occasion. After the ser
vices in the church were concluded, the pro
cession followed by a long Hue of carriages
proceeded to Crystal Lake cemetery, anl
the impressive Masonic burial service was
read by David Clark, of Albauy.
A number of Masons and friends from
neighboring cities as well as the surround
ing country attended tho funeral, and all
unite with this community in expressing
sorrowful sympathy for the bereaved
family.
The familiar face and form of Dr. Lee
are sadly missed by his numerous acquain
tances, who realize that Corvallis has lost
one of her most honored and enterprising
citizens. Dr. J. B. Lee was born near
Hillsboro, Ohio, in 1833, aud after study
ing medicine at Starling Medical college,
Ohio, he came to Oregon at the age of 24,
and associated himself with Dr. J. R. Bay
ley iu tho practice of medicine in this city.
He continued in the- active practice of his
profession up to the time of his death, and
was respected far and near as an eminently
skilled and honored physician. He has
tilled many positions of honor aud trust,
having served as a member of the Oregon
legislature, as well as mayor of Corvallis,
and was president of the Corvallis Carriage
& Wagon Co. at the time of his demise. In
November, 18C6, he married Miss Hattie
Wosden, who died a few months afterward,
In October, "1876. he married Miss Minnie
Ellston, who is left to mourn his sad loss.
He leaves a fnbther, sister, and brother in
the east, and a brother in this city, Dr. C.
H. Lee.; Many instances of generosity
are fettutioned by old and intimate ac
quaintances of the deceased, and all men
tion him iu highest terms of respect. Dr.
Lee was a prominent member of the Ma
sonic fraternity and the A. O. U. W., and
faithful adherent and supporter of the
Presbyterian church.
