Prospect Hill farm in Eastern Ore gon, win raise 20,0000 bushels of grain this season. The-, grain it fall sown, hence the very good crop. Mr. Schoeps, sheriff of Clackamas county, has appointed Mr. Frank Capps of M mh field his deputy. Mr. Capps was recently candidate for county clerk on the democratio ticket. Henderson Simpson and John John son had aa altercation at Dallas on the fifth which resulted in the latter recei v. ing a pistol shot in in the hand. ' Both were arrested, and Johrtson, upon ex amination, was bound over .to await the action of the grand jury in the sum of $250. One hundred" and fifty men are era- ployed in burning coal for the Oswego Iron Works; They hum CO loads per day averaging 200 buxhels to the load, to do which takes 200 cords of wood. The daily output of iron is 18 to 20 torn Over 400u tons have beeu made on the present hearth. On Account of cold winds and drought most of the oats and barley in the region of Bake Oven, Wasco coun ty, will be cut for hay. Farmers pro pose to remedy this matter another year by plowing deep and usiiig seed dtflW flhsted W hartwing the grain in broadcast Independent: fha farmers of WoKh- ing ton county are getting thoroughly I wakened to the importance of proper drainage, as the product of the land depends greatly upon a dry soil. Many farmers in the lower end of the county have hureased the producing quality of their soil at least 25 per cent, by a small outlay in this wise. The drop outlook in Jackson county is improving. . Ihe late rains, while doing some damage to hay, have been most opportune for late town grain, and for the corn ard sorghum crops, and there is now a prospect of an abun dant harvest In some localities there will be a fair peach crop, in others none to speak of, and it is generally conced ed that it will be a failure, but other fruits will be gathered in abundance. The two horse thieves who stole the horses from Gore and Payne at Phoe nix one night last last week were capt tumd atAdia, Cel., on the 29th by Deputy Sheriff Webb of Jsckson coun ty. They resisted arrest when the of ficers overtook them, when the latter commenced ahooting, which' was re turned by the robbers. During the fight the officers shot fiftnen times and the other side nineteen timfcs, resulting in the death of on of the robbers and seriously wounding the other. ' "Jacksonville ' Ssntinel: On, Satuf urday morning last thre masked men suddenly appeared at the house of H. C. Laws, the murderer of the boy Cala van, in Lake county, and commenced shooting at his eon, Loe Laws, who was prominently connected with the tragd dy last winter.' Lee vu shot wice and instantly killed, and another shot, probably intended for hire, took' effect on his younger brother Joseph, whOne hip was shattered by the ball ' IL C. Laws was alent id this valley at the time, and was warned by telegraph not to return, to Linkville, but he did so, and reached there in safety. His eon was buried on Monday, but the father prudently aWnteU. himself from atten dance at, the funeral. Joseph is not expected to reoover, and there is much apprehension in Lake county that trou ble will ensue. Thie murder, we un derstand, wan committed in Modoc county very near the state lin, and j iwuiar. imii ly nil Miller. f The Port Orford Post has the follow ing interesting particulars in' cotiheo tion with the recent death of this nota ble woman, so well known hire. "Min nie Myrtle Miller," first wife of the poet Joaquin Miller, died in New York on the 15th ult, after a lingering ill ness. Inasmuch as this was the early home of Mrs. Miller, her father, Mr. Dyer, having taken under tho donation law the place at the mouth of Elk riv er, now owned by Robert McKeniie; that it waa here that Joaquin wooed and won her, and that a sister still is a resident of this place, a few lines relative to her somewhat eventful ca reer may not prove uninterest ing reading just now. Mrs. Miller, prior to her marriage with Joaquin, acquired some little reputation aa a writer for the press of this State, and it was through this means that her ac quaintance, with the then embryo poet sprang up, he knowing her as 'Minnie Myrtle,' her pseudonym. After a brief correspondence a meeting was ar ranged which took place here and a very few days thereafter they were one. That much success of many of hits po ems Was due to her ability and taste Joaquin has often admitted, but it is too often the case where the aspira rations of loth are to reach a common goal by a common route, their domestic relations were not the happiest, and a divorce waa obtained bf Joaquin by some hocus pocus, though Mrs. Miller first applied for and was ori the point of receiving one. Three children were born to them, one of whom is at Marsh field with Mrs. Itilborn-Mk Miller's sister anothor is at Eugene City with Joaquin's father, while the third and eldest, Maud, has been in it convent in Canada for the past two years, to secure her release from which institu tion having been tho object of her visit EaHt, her efforts proving fruitless, as thi youritf 1adn!s place! there by her father find she had not yet attainod her majority. Mrs Miller did some thing in the poetry line after the sepa ration, but it ws in the lecture field that she was at her best; at one time espousing the cause of woman suffrage, which she abandoned, however, in a short time ai decidedly non productive in a financial point of view. She mar ried a man named Logan in Portland, but they soon parted, she resuming her first huslwnd's name. At lwr death Joaquin was present, aa also Maud, who arrived too late, however, to find her mother conscious." The Maine Democrats, so far as their views can be understood from the tele graphic account of them, have partially redeemed their folly of supporting Greenbackers in that state by a declar ation of excellent principles for a plat- wdrra The tariff plank is good doct rine especially good fer that part of the Union, and shows a returning sense of the folly of the ultra protection sys tem. Tho demand for a currency al ways convertible into specie is about as far from the Greenbackers' dogmas as it would be possible to go. The shame loss blackmailing levies on office-holders receive vigorous denunciation. On such a platform the Democrats of Maine, with a good ticket ought to win. Accidentally Shot. The sixteon year-old son of John S. Miller, residing at Wells Station, Benton county, 'uly 7th, about 4 o'clock, while he was at tempting to take a shotgun out' of a wa gon, for the purpose of shootihg a crow, the gun was accidentally discharged. shooting him through the right 'hand,' carrying away the bone adjoining" the knuckU of the little finger.
