Hnlman was arrested near The Dalles Saturday afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Croner on a oomplaint filed in the office of Justice Henderson by Pasoo Sanders, oharging bim with the crime of larcenv by bailee, and was brought here Sun day afternoon. It appears that last No vember Sheriff woiand attacnen xiuimnu team for a debt owed to J. M. Williams, by his order. Mr Holman being a poor man the sheriff let him retain the team taking bis receipt therefor. Holman about the first of the year .old the team to Pasco Sanders and went to Eastern Oregon. A Rhotiff nUnd went to look after the team and found them in possess ion of Mr. Sanders and, of course, took charge of them and that gentleman nattir- lly filed a warrant against noiuiau cimib kim nifh tha ahnvH crime. It seems that Holman demanded the team from Wil iams' attorney, on advice of a friend, as the i -.. . mon'a ii.m from eiecution Instead of this, he should have demanded iu frnm thn aheriff and not sold the property until it bad linen released. Le- cally ne is prooauiy iumj, he had no criminal intention.

Some time since the grocers of our beau tiful city met, not to regulate prioes so much. but. Sh a nroteotive aflaociatinn and to place onr business on morefriendly rela tions with one another. We were to regu late the price on two or three of the most staple articles, such as flour and sugar, and stop cutting and advertising prioes. This would have done very well but no sooner was this accomplished until (beS prices on various other articles were raised, of oourse by the majority. This I opposed as I could not see that it would benefit my "trade and to tbe trade that would come to Eugene, holding it more to outside stores and towns when we were well able to sefr cheaper. You all no doubt know what the consequen ces were. They held a meeting ajid made resolution to foroe me to adopt them whether I wished to or not. This I object ed to forcibly as any man in a free country bat a right to do as he pleases so loLg as he lives in the law. Their first movement was to get the flouring mills, Eugene and Junc tion and Springfield to agree to not Tell me flour, with tbe understanding that if tbey sold me flour, they would not haudle their flour. Tbe mills doing tbe only thin? tbey could do, oonoluded to sell to tbe majority and let tbe one store (Ax Billy) go. This they did not stop with, but threatenedevery drummer of wholesale houses that if tbey sold me, that tbe rest or majority would not boy goods of them. Sugar was Their main bold. This was rather surprising to me not only to have the various drummers to refuse to sell to me goods, but theboJfeB themselves refused to fill my orders. I have various letters to show, if necessary, stating that mp account was highly valued with them but by filling my order they would cut themselves off from doing business witb any of the merchants dealing in their linf of business in our city. This was a bard blow, but not so bard as wheal they uxed tbe same influence on the grealn Standard uu uompuny and persuaded tnem not to sell me any oil, which tbey now rei fuse to do. I take this mode of informing mv patrons that it may be possible that I will be out of some of tbe staples, but II assure yon it will be for only a short time in at all. for I will not subject myself to any suoh indignities without a hard fight. Wei will nave a carioau oi augar uere iu a iew days from San 1'rauciwo We also have a lew cans oi coai an wnicu we win aeu you, at a very close margin. Depend on it tbat Ax Billy will try to have plenty of flour, so don't hesitate to ask him for a sack. . Yours respectfully,. E.H. I.NQHAM, Ax Billy.

It looks as if the people of Eu gene intends letting this importantorganiz- ation die a lingering death, if It has not al ready met suoh a sad fate. A live Board of Trade is needed in a oity, and should be sustained. Buttso Bins Victi-. Springfield Tues day night opened a skating riuk.

Ubntlimkn: in compliance witb the provisions of the oity charter I herewith submit for your consideration such facts aud suggestions as in my judgment will be of int rest to our citizens and of value for tbe government of the city for tbe year upon which we have now ended. 1 finances. On April 13. 1892, the beginning of the fiscal j ear just past, the oity indebtedntss was 31SU,o. liy reference to the record er's report it will be seen that we bave not only canoellod this Indebtedness but if all the resources were available have reduced our bonded indebtedness over f 3000. Con sidering all delinquent taxes and delin quent street aaaetsmeuts as worthless, amounting to f 1660.20, we have still cancell ed tbe general indebtedness and reduced our bonded iudobtness nearly 9 1600. This show ing is very gratifying not only to the council hut doubted less to the tax pavers also. This demonstrates tbat by ecouomy the city government oan be run on a five mill tax and meet all the current ex penses and provide it sinking fuud to meet our bondod indebtedness as it shall fall duo. General good health has prevailed in our midst during the your, and while this may be attribute to our location and climate in great measure, yet tbe committee oo health are to be commended for tbe faithful dis charge of their duties in not only filling stagnant pools and moving nauseous matter from streets and alleys, but in devoting much valuable time in constructing a sewer system, which when utilized will convey from the oity much matter doloterious to health. While general good order baa prevailed there have been a few instances of disorder ly conduct to the last degree reprehensible. There is an element among ns, as in all towns of this size that it 1. extremely diffi cult to hold in oheck, and with our limited polloe foroe it is impossible to restrain it in every instance. Some more stringent laws in this regard, with a more stringent en forcement would doubtless do good and give our oity a better reputation abroad. This is very necessary from tbe foot that Eugene is the acknowledged educational center of tbe state and if we expect good oitizens to move here or send their children here to be eduoatod w. must make a repu tation of sobriety and good order to Induce tbis class to come among ns. On. thing In my estimation tbat does much to demoralise our youth is th. keep ing open on Sunday so many of our busi ness houses. Especially does this apply to places where cigars and tobaooo are kept for sale old and young may be seen congre gating at these plaoes, where the habit of nsing narcotic is contracted and idling away lime which might be much belter em ployed elsewhere. While the saloons are nominally closed yet nearly everybody knows tbe latch string is outat the baok door and it is a question if there is not more liquors drank on Sun day tban any other day in the week. I sug gest if it would not be well to correct thea. evils, and if so, whether aom. more string ent .naotm.nts are not needful. Street improvements were continued through tbe year and with the repairing of a few blooks worn out on 8th and 9th streets Eugene can boast of as good streets as any city in the state. An omission of three words in adver tising for the improvement of Madison street baa cost tba tax payers of Eugene about $800, unless th. decision of the cir cuit court oan be reversed. The citizens along tbis atreet petitioned for its improve ment and the city In good fuitb did tbe work. Upon a technicality these people seek to make the oity bear the burden for tbelr tapecial benefl,. While tbey bave tbe law in their favor. Justice and Equity would say they should pay (or the improve ment. I suggest tbe judiciary committee be instructed to investigate the ease and either appeal to a higher tribunal or agree upon a compromise, whichever is tbe most advantageous to tbe parties concerned. SlWiB. The construction of a system of sewerage bad already been provided for when the council of 1H91 can.e into power. $20,000 In bonds bearing 7 per cent interest per an num were scld at a premium of $575 and tbe construction of the sewer proceeded witb as faat as circumstances would per mit. Tbe system ss completed, and which was only deiiigned to drain tbe central and more densely popu'ated portion of tbe oity, was completed before tbe winter rains be gan and has proved during tbe winter, ade quate to carry away tbe surface water. Tbat portion of tbe city usually filled with stag nant pool, baa been completely drained and what baa been a source of annoyance for many veara, as well as prejudicial to health is by tbis improvement done away witb. By tbe filing of an injunction by the Eugene Water Company, upon the completion of tbe aewer, it could not be used other tbsn for surface drainage. Said injunction was dissolved at th. last session of th. circuit court and was ap pealed to tb. .uprem. court of tb. .tat. and ia now on trial. Wben a decision is reach ed which will doubtless be in favor of tbe city, and tbe Water Co. shall bavs moved their pumping station to another point which we believe Utej contemplate doing at an early day, thee.
