Hut the road needs to be worked at the present time to secure the full benefits that may accrue. The road compiiny cannot be expected to ex pend money on improvement for which they get no return, and us it is not a county road county funds or dis trict work cannot be applied. The set tlers on the upper McKemtio are few, and alono cannot take care of t lie road, so at present travel to a certain extent must work its way through. It Is to be hed the commissioners court will seedlly nettle the contention wllh the roud company and lay It out as a county road from the summit bound ary bet wwn Crook and Lane counties to the end of the county road on the west, so that organized work may be performed. Then with the aid of a small appropriation from the county the set t lei s may keep the read in good condition for travel. In the meantime the citizens of Eu gene should start asuhscriptiou pner, and furnish means to temporarily re pair the road win re needed. With a coiniieteiit suiierinleudeut thu cost would be small, while the accruing benefits would be large From per sonal conversation with settlers along the road we are assured oonsiderutde work would be subscribed. Some one is needed to start thu work. We feel satislled the enterprising business men and public spirited citizens nf Eugene will not neglect to take full advantage of the opportunity ottered. C. KdVes-JennesH. Iinlljr Curcl, June 'it. Tho home of Mr. aud Mrs. Eaves, of Fairniount, was the scene of a very beautiful and luipresslveeeremony last evening. About 40 guests, near friends of the family, assembled to witness the niarrlngujof their daughter, Harriet H. Eaves to Charles K. Jenness, lute as sociate professor in .Stanford Universi ty. The wedding rites were adminis tered by the brother of the groom, Hev. Freeman Jenness, who came up from California, to olliclute. Thu pleasant rooms w-ere artistically decorated with branches of ocean spray, in full flower, and delicate scenery. The work of trans-forming the apartments Into a wedding bower tit for so fair a bride was done by the hands af loving friends and was superintended and de signed by Mts. Holicrt Collier of !Sall Francisco. At 8 o'clock to the strains of the wedding march, the bridal pair, preceded by Miss Kutll and Miss Belle Eaves and two little girls, Eva Frazer Hid Maiy Miller, who scattered roses in the path of the bride, advanced and Uxk their pluces under the mass of overhanging woodland flowers, where the minister awaited their coming. The bride wore a white silk gown and veil and was as fair and sweet as ever bride was. The occasion was one long to be re membered with pleasure, and many are the kind wishes for their hiture happiness which the young couple carried with them to their new home. Th?y took the midnight train for Chi co. where Mr. Jenness has taken a clerical charge for the summer. Not Very Si'ki'kisino.

Tuesday, May 11, Mr. and Mrs. DeForresl leu miner City for Montana, but on reaching Pocatello Etta mysteriously disappear ed. It seems that Etta lias another husband living somewhere in Idaho, from whom she has never been di vorced, and had told De Forrest he died a year or so ago, says the Baker City Democrat. When Ik' Forrest discovered bhe hud flown, he searched the car. but found her not. As it was nearly train time, he did not stop, but started on his journey, a sadder but a wiser man. It is his intention to sift the matter, and if Etta has deceived him he will bring criminal action against her Tor bigamy. 3 f! ffiW His iiousu "'-.-;-,-, ...i.. iinuov .- . ,,,. MIi be cap ureu u.

It started out tolling the people ail infernal lie, to create tlie impres sion tli.it McHride und Kiocaid had la-en robbing; the people of fJO.UOO a year, when Mr. Kincaiil's record for his first six months dhows he get lens than 3,000 a year. "An editor of Mr. Scott's promi nence who will deliberately lie to injure a man whom he dislikes, because he has a mind of his own, and cannot be cajoled or driven to perve another's purpose whoa the purpose, is a sellisli one, deserves the contempt of ull men. He has a newspaper monopoly, and to a certain extent people are com pelled to take his paper; but tliey do not have to subscribe to his practices or doctrines when they are wrong. Mr. Scott is becoming to be tin old man. His reputation as a public man is uono too good. As the Puritan fishwife of the till tower, he has many admirers. But not otherwise, lie bus lost hit grip on affairs. He lias no longer a monopoly on an iiuinterupled How of billingsgate. His own building aud nowspapcr is hopo Icssly morgttgud to the gold trutit. Chinese aud Hebrew loan com panies collect his rents. The For eign Insurance Trust, for wliieh lie pleaded s, bard njiinst tho bill to tux their grots income, takes its share of all the money paid in tho Orcgonian's coffers. Ho is inter ested with the gold trust and in surance trust in screwing the last dollar of gold out of the peoplo of Oregon. Ho is tho bankrupt tool of the gold conspirators whose hand is on tho throat of the producer. His slavish advocacy of gold bug interests and of the foreign bond holders of American corporations wrecked the good Handing and un doubted claim of Dolph to re-election. John II. Mitchell can do no better or wisur thing than to keep Harvey Scott against him. It will give him that confidence of the people of which Scott's support would rob him and he would only become senator for another term by buying his way to an office, which, freed from Scott's pernicious intluencc, tho people will present to him on a silver platter. If Mitchell surrounds himself with a little coterie ol advisers headed by Scott, the people will rcpudiuto him. Mitchell will not do that. Scott is a man without a generous er Christian trait or impulse. He is the Bolingbroko of the l'ucilio const and when he pusses awsy un less ho mends his ways for the better, will die like Jay Ciould, "unwept, unhoiiored and unsung." The poor will curso him; tne rich will remember him only as a mercenary parasite.

MB THE Kl (iF.NK i'l MVv The Corvallis Tiun-s, uliturlally fays: "Mr. and Mrs. McQueen, of Ku geue 'are eu.h u ras.-rd at tint pre dicanicut iu which thu find them selves.' Tiny were cousins, and Juno Sth procured u marriage license, went through the marriage ceremony, und until last Saturday when they were arrcMcd for incest, lived together as man and wife. They did not know that the legis lature of $'X passed a law forbid ding the marriage of cousins. The law prohibits the following mar riages: 'first, when eitlur party has a wife or husband at the tiiuo of such marriage; second., when the parties thereto arc first cousins, or any nearer t.f kin to each other; third when either of the parties is a white per son, and tho other u negro or mon golian, er ono-fourth or more of negro or mongolian blood.' The crime is made iuceft, and the pen ally is ono to three years in th.t eniteiitiary, three uioiiths to one year in thu county jail, or a line of $200 to $1,000 "The unfortunate liugcne coin-ins aged respectively 20 and 13 ure not married, and under arrct as they aro for incest when they like toil lions beforo Ihoni have rimply married each other, it in no wonder thut they 'are cniliurrRrd ut the predicament in which they find themsolvce.' Their ignorance of the statute, unfortunately for them, goes for naught in law, but may cut some figuro if a tender hearted man or two gets in the jury box. After they have escaped or endured the penalty for incest, if their love is still undimmed, and their long ing to be each other's husband and and wife still possesses them, to carry out their purpose they will have to leave Oregon for a tdato where cousins, negroes nnd Mon golian! may intermarry. "Tho moral of the accident is if the child who essayed to become a bride had remained single until old enough to assume a wife's re sponsibility, she would probably have learned before it was too late that she could not marry her cousin in Oregon, and thus have forfended 'an embarrassing pre dicament.'

Not a cent should be raised for any such pur pose. Oregon can put her money to a better uso than spending it for a silver service for a battle ship which happened to bo named after her. Oregon peoplo should not play at such a game. It savors too much of a tribute to a class who have already drawn heavily from the plain people and given them barely nothing iu return. It is something in the line of the cus tom of giving pensions to the fami lies of deceased statesmen . who "served the country" by drawing a salury for doing nothing all their lives. This gathering of the peo ple's money when it is not earned should be put a ttop to, and wo would like to see Oregon make a beginning in that direction by failing to raiso the desired $10,500.
