Regular trains will not run beyond Glendale until the toad is opened to Grant's pass, whirh will be doife about the middle of October. From Grant's pass to Ashland, a distance of forty-five miles through Rogue river valley, the mad is easy of pojistructton, and it it expected thattht line-will be in operation to Ashland by the end of the year. Thirty-twc miles of road beyond -Aahland will finish tho Oregon and California Com pauy's share of, the . line connecting Oregon with California, hut these thirty-two miles are ip the Siskiyou mountains anil quite as-difficult of construction as any like distance through the Cow creek hil's.

We have recently been informed that work on the Yaquina Ray railroad stopped on the 4thof the present month. The employes have all been plid oiT mid dischargee) Just when work will b resumed is not knowu. Tli9 tunnels ore none of them completed, and tho present outlook is anything but flutter ing for tho early completion of the road. The work on the break-water at the en trance t ) tho bay is progressing favorably under the management of Mr J S Polhemus, About 1500 feet of lock work has beau put t;i this season, and tome 203 foct mor.o will go iu lef.ird tire season cloaca. It is esti mated that the appropriation will last until the iiiid.Hu of October. I.'ofore that time th i work, -no far t it has pinjrjsaed, will bo made secure against the winter storm. The depth of water gained thus far on the bar is fonr feet, which gives encouragement that thn work when completed will be of perma nent worth to the rapidly increasing busi less of that port.

Either party may nso whatever variety of wheat pro vided he uses but ono variety or mode of cultivation he may choose. You may have your grain ground in Lane county and I will have inino ground iu Columbia county. J. W. Duncan. The Wrong Man. Detective A J Parlpw has returned from Kilooaburg after au rnsucuessfitl starch after Disbrow, He had au eract description of the escaped convict, and when he arrived at Elleusburg ho found that the man he wa pursuing was It U .(.raliaui, and who, in every particular, tallied with the printed description of Disbrow. It appears ' that Graham was working ou the. railroad near Glendale aud concluded to go to his borne on Smith river, south of Ellenaburg. Being short of money, he concluded to save stage fare by walking, and thus attracted sus picion. Detective Barlow i disappointed at his failure, and the State of Oregon owe him debt of gratitude for the trouble be has taken to capture Disbrow. Died At the family residence, about three miles sooth of Eugene, Friday August 17, 1883. Mr. John Branoan, aged 22 years, 10 mouths and 17 day. Tbe reuiaius will be bur.ed at the Mulkey Cemetery to-day at 10 o'clock. Johuny wa beloved by all who knew him for hi many good qualities. The family has the sympathy of tho entire neighborhood. Sad Accideot. A sad accident occurred three mile above Springfield last Monday evening, which resulud in the death of a three year old child of Mr William Laird. . It appear that the child had fallen from ft chair, superinducing concussion of tbs brain, and al though a skillful physician was called, the lit tle one died the day of the accident Good Times. One indication., ol good time, is tbe tact that there has been leas at taching of wheat fields than ever before in Lane county, The prosperity in this section seem general, and if wheat thould bring tomethioc near one dollar per bushel this county would fairly "boom."
