court, the opinion being delivered by Lord,
C. J. This is a case ot some interest, wbicu
was taken to the supreme court upon appeal
from Lane county. At tho November, lssii,
term of tho circuit court of Lane county,
W.S. Johns and one John Doe were indicted
by th grand jury for burglarizing the county
treasurer's ollice. They were tried, found
guilty and sentenced to u term of years iu
the penitentiary. Tho defendant, Johns,
appealed ou the ground that the indictment
does not allege that at tho time of breaking

kept therein. It is held by the court Unit m
an indictment for burglary, a declaration
that the defendant, having brokt-u into and
entered a building, tho same being n room

Our brother editor seems to be very jubi
lant over the defeat of a curtain amendment
proposed in the Laiirean society, and devotes
considerable space to his rejoicings. We
know nothing of the merits of thu measure
but wonder if it is the samo amendment that
Brother Davis himself wanted so badly to
introduce, ami whether tho fact that some oue
1st; got ahead of him hail anything to do
with his opposing it. We are requested to
ask also how much "button-holing a "Post
ofllcing" aro required of oue in order to put
him ou tho side of "right and justice," and
bow largo a prescription of these cordials it
took to convert tho editor.

Hkavx Los. The heaviest individual loan
in sheep during tho past winter that ho come
to onr knowledge falls on Mr. Geo. II.
Thurston. He was rauging his nooks in the
Silver lake region, Lake oounty, aid wn
owuer of aliout 7,000 head of stock sheep.
Out of that umntter h has bnt 3,000 left,
6,000 having died. The sheep were com
pelled to range for a living, as no bar or
other feed was provided for them, and the
range on which they were herded was nut
good. But it is believed that the cause of mi
many dying was jhe result ot gross erele
ness on the part of those who had direul
cbargo of the Hocks. It is indeed quite
evitlent that they were either greatly neglect,
ed or very improperly handled. The winter
was quite as never here as at Silver lake,
and we know of several flocks that wintered
here on short range without prepared feed
with a loss not exceeding 25 per cent.
