Final Kkpobt. The erand inrv ih ita
final report say that- the different public
offices aud county jail are kept in a cood con
dition. In ending the report the following
recommendation is mi.de : "We also wish to
submit that the present court bouse is an old
building, having been built in 1852, and that
it has become inadequate to the needs of the
county, and we would recommend, that in
stead of making any addition to the old
building, that a new tine be built, with a jail
in the basemeut thereof. As an economical
measure we regard this as to the best interests
of the county." We think this a very sensi
ble and timely suggestion. A good substan
tial court nouse, that will be a credit to the
county, can be erected for $30,000. We
would adviae the County Commissioners
Court to annul the contract recently made
for an addition to the building. No more
money Bhould be thrown away by improving
the old buildins. The giand jury that make
this recommendation was composed of solid
farmers, therefore we take it for emu ted that
the producing element is nearly unanimous
lor tne improvement, liy all means, let s
have a new court house.
i
Hbbbfobd Cattle. Messrs T L and T E
Miller arrived here from Beecher, Illinois,
last Monday, with a car load of the famous
Hereford cuttle, which they offer for sale to
our stockmen. These cattle are thorough
bred and duly registered hi the stock books
and are guaranteed. They are just the cat
tle for this county, as they are heavy and
easily fatted on grass. A two-year old steer
will weigh from 1,200 to 1,400 pounds.
It will be readily seen that it will not pay to
raise "scrub" cattle when such stock can be
secured. These eattle are now on exhibi
tion in this city. Come and see them ; it
will cost you nothing if you don't purchase.
In another column will be found an adver
tisement of this lot of cattle which gives full
er information.

the expiration oi his sentence in the peniten
tiary. Ellis Eastwood, who was convicted of
abduction of a girl under fifteen years of
age, after a good lecture, was sentenced to
oue year's imprisonment in tb,e penitentiary,

STATF. UNIVERSITY
A column devoted to the InterenU of the
Ijuirvnn and Eutaxlan Literary Societies, and
tue state university.
Nelly Hill Editor,
However light may seem the production iu
this columu from my pen, it is a tusk heavy
and laborious. I do uot profess to be a wit
nor a sage; theu how is it possible to interest
you, kind reader ? Any help from frionds
will be kiudly received, and 1 will also try to
profit by just criticinna. A columu from the
society of the 8tute University bears upon my
mind with great dignity and wisdom. Never
Laving been so greatly honored before, it is
with a timorous feeling that I undertake this
work. I shall try to please you all, and my
aim will be to further the interests of our
society in particular, nnd to make it known
through the press. In this way I shall tell
to the public our doings and all news about
the school that is proer for this column.
Aay thiug I cantlo by this means to promote
the proserity of the Eutaxian society will
be mv greatest pleasure. Our society column
should be filled every week, for there is
enougu work and Duuness to nil a good
space. It is a great advantage, a step in
advance that girls may manage societies gov
erned by parliamentary rules aud dvlinte
upou the live nuestioui of the day. The
greatest study is to tell what we know. . Our
learmug will amount to little if we cauuot
impart it. Here is the plac6 to learn to bilk
in publio and debate. V e now live iu a time
wueu our Drams are noi consiuereu interior
to those of our brothers; aud to be equal with
them in learning, yon must have this part of
a University's education; Therefore we ask
aud urge upon those who are not members
to take advantage of this privilege, we nave
some able debaters, and can learn much from
thorn, and have' more command over our-
solves. We shall then be a greater benefit to
the world and to people who surround us
It is well that we have lived if the world is
better for it. We must theu learn self con
trol, and to dubnte is the place to be taught.

on the east side: Milwankle, Clackamas,
Oregon City, Aurora, Hubbard, Woodburn,
