The First Census,
"Speaking of tho census," said Jason

tho other da "carries me back to the dnya
of '49. I took the It i t census of Liun
county; it waa in 18 IS. The couuly was
all the territory from the Santiaui river to
lbe California line and it took me just a lit
tle over a month to do the work. Thero
were at tbat time iu tbe couuty 0C3 people.
') of whom were legal voters. Iu the
Rogue river valley I found but one man, a
Mr. Welch, with a wife mid two children;
tbe next family this aide of there lived iu the
forks of the Willamette river nud tbe next
waa Mr. Spores at Spores ferry, where I
think he or his family still reside. "--Albany
Herald

Superintendent Fillmore.
Col. Crocker says tbat be was enabled to
grsnt himself a long promised lour of in
spection of the Oregou lines of system in
connection with tbe annual meetings of the
terminal company aud P. and W. V. direc
tors. "What we saw on the East side road
coming up," said he, "was very satisfacto
ry and tbe country is very proinisiug both
in farmiiig and busiuess direction.
About the first o( July we shall put on
uotber local train out of Portland, running
as far south as Roseburg. The other loon Is
may then gn only as far us Albany, but that
has uot beeu settled yet. Two locals will
thus relieve our through train of its present
heavy atraiu, as we will carry no local pas
senger on it. Tbe t ravel lx tweeu here and
Sin Francisco is rapidly on au inorease and
it is our purpose to improve service and
shorten time."
