HI Stock in JosF.rnixa The loss of .stock in our neighboring county does not seem to have been so severe as at iirst anticipated. Mr. John" of Wil Jiams creek has only lost about ten per cent of his cattle and in other jiortions of the county the loss is little greater, if any. Strike in Portland. flie harness makers of Portland are on a strike for liijjier wages, declaring that they can Jiot Mipport families on S2.50 to S3 00 per day. Considering the fact $3.00 per day is allotted for he-ping u State pauper in Jackson county the strike seems justifiable. Goon Guessing. On Saturday last. a prominent Democrat took out his pencil and wrote down the names of eight nut of nine delegates, elected to the Countv Convention, several hours before the "primary" was held. That's prettv shrewd guessing, as of course there was no job put up. Good Friday. 'Next Friday will be the holiest of all days observed Ity the. Roman Catholic and Protestant Epis copal Churches; the anniversary of the passion and death of the Savior. All Catholic churches are, on this dav, draped in mourning, in commemoration of the event, and theservices (held here in the evening) will be of the most im pressive character. Small Business. The 'Times" is evidently trying to force us into antag onism with some of the teachers in the public school. The attempt is no doubt prompted by a director who, within a month den mnceil one of the teachers as "an utter failure," but who is now fawning on him. We are satis fied with the school and speak of it Just us we find it. Fine Colt. Geo. W. Stephenson Las probably, the finest horse colt evei 'foaled in Jackson countv.

Mr. T. G. Reames, of Reames Bros, Jias shown us a proposition from John son t Malone, to land goods at Cres cent City at 4.50 per ton including freight (on schooners) from Sin Fian cisco and wharfage. Fi eights, via Portland, cost at Rosehurg, an average of 825 per ton and ihen are no nearer than at Crescent Citv, ami the differ .ence is paid by the consumer. If any freighting is done to Crescent City it will lo late, however, as melting snow -will keep the North Fork of Smith river flush, and it will bo difficult to ford it until July, but an attempt in that, direction will not be without its fruits. We. hear of another band of sheep J across R.gue. River (Mr. MyerV) that have "weathered it lliioilgh without loss. They weie well fed and only sheared in the Spring last year. We had the pleasure of a call on Sunday eniug from Mr. Cat h's Mer rill of I he "Tidings" and Mr. Cal.Eu- bauks of Ashland. These gentleman leporta blight business revival in their town. JJat.

Dan Cardwell is the artist at the Union livery stable. He proposes commencing painting portraits and scenery after his present job is com pleted. Gammon, second in command at the "sand lots" has been convicted for using incendiary language. - San Fran cisco people don't seem tc have any patience, Frank Wheeler, who killed Charles Taylor at AUany last week, has been held in 2,000 to answer at the next term .of court.

Catou says "Tom' is already familiar with the peniten tiaty. A bill' has passed the. California Assembly making it unlawful to platf a guufi of cards for "drinks." This is aciuelblow leveled by an unfeeling aristocracy at an important American industry. A pleasant social dance, with quite a good attendance, was held at the Club Room last Saturday evening as a farewell patty for Frrd Croneiinller, who starts for Like countv this week. Prof. Scott furnished music for the oc casion. Mr. E. W. Ryan, Grand Lecturer I. O. G. T., is up the valley doing good work in the cause of temperance. He will jsjt E-tgle Point, Big Butte, Sams. Valley, Willow Springs and Rock Point and then make a trip into Jo sephine county. Frank Pickell is canvassing for the "Hojiih Journal," a sixteen page monthly family newspaper. The sub scription price is only one dollar per year with four lieautiful chromos thrown jji, each of which is worth '.he subscription price. A team belonging to I. W. Berry was left, standing for a few moments on Sunday afternoon, and the result was a runaway that demolished the wagon, but fortunately did ui other damage mthough there were many children on the streets. Great difficulty js experienced by contractprs for supplying railioad' ties up m Oregon, ihe "workingmen lit this State seem to be of the ''conversa tional" kind, and advertised offers of steady work and good pay only meet tho response "the Chinese must go!'' Very often tho trouble with poor light, so frequently in the use oj, kero sene lumps, arjs.e,s from the oil through the vviuk. 'litis may easily be avoided by frequently changing i lit wick, or by washing it in strong, hot soap sud", with some amonia in the rising water. Simpson, the gentlemanly musician (drummer) for Held Bros, the San Francisco men milliners', was in town on Saturday. This firm have recently removed to an elegant establishment at 13 Mirket street and from the litho graph of their building seem to be in telephone connection w-ith all Europe. Frot'i Mr Joseph Satterfield we learn that out of J. T. Ramey's hand of 1,600 sheep only 140 have died This js mainly attributable to the fact that his sheep were in good condition at the beginning of winter and not sheaud in the fall. They weie of course well caied for during the Jiard sUiinis, f H. L- Webb, mail carrier to Prine ville, informs the "Lake County Ex aminer" that on Beaver Cieek, Wasco county, in a ciicuit of fifteen niilen there are a thousand cattle lying dead. The winter in that section has been very severe, and the estimated loss of stock of all kinds will reach fifty to seventy per cent. If your local paper happens to tread on your toes a little in performing its mission, don't i,et bully and sa- harsh things about ;t, but stop and tuko a long breath and think back for a short season ami see if you can't remember soiae of the favors and kin Inesse.s it has shown you andyotin: in the past. Then reflect that it in ty not be long belore you want favors again. Every claim is now running in Jo sephine" county with a full head of wa ter, ow ing to the genial weather, bnt there has lieen no cleaning up doneyet as the miners aro too Lusy moving ground. Alex. Watts of Williams creek has his hydraulic pipe, in successful opera tion at the Horsehead claim and is making 10 per day to the hand. He expects to have a month's water yet. John T. Lajtonof Applegate now has a full head of water and is piping day and night in very good ground. Bybee, Benedict and Taylor have some claims-well located at "Steam lioat" that can bo pui chased cheap. This ground ielded well until it be came too deep for a light head of water and there was one piece found in it worth over SI, 400. The parties own ing it are unable to put the necessary improvements on it. From M. A. Ferguson we learn that the last run of 20 days, at the Bunker Hill claim, below Happy Camp, owned by John,Teniple yielded 55,000. In the Reeve's claim 83,800 was cleaned up for 14 diy's tun. Mr. Ferguson s. claim" j" k!HK 3,000 per mutitli. lhero.lsun immense amount of ground still to work along the Klamath, above and below Happy Camp. R. M. Garrett, who visited the re cent strike of Wimer it Simmons at Waldo tells us that they hae a Stra tum of gravel ten feet thick that pros pects from ten to fifty cents to the pan. The company haveneaily three miles of grave), i mining along "Butch er" Gulch, aul as. they have ample water, pressuie and dump, they have undoubtedly a bonanza. The gold in this claim is fine ix the coarsest pieces found larety weigu more man uity cents. CnicKEN Surgery. Last week a favorite rooster belonging to E. C. Biooks showed symptoms of indiges tion and was failing so fast, that he ami Dr. Aiken concluded to try an ex peiiment. Opening the birds crop thev found it filled with food and after emptying it they discovered that the mo-tli of the passage leading to the gizzard was choked with a piece of apple and a bit of charcoal each about the size of a ten cent piece Removing the obstiuctions, and carefully sewing up the incision in the crop, the bird was turned loose and after a few min utesj'crovved" his thanks for the re lief afforded him. He is now as well as ever, anil no dcubt thinks that is if chickens have reasoning faculties that surgery is a w onderful science. Damage to Orchards. Mr. Zrck. Cameron, of Uniontown, has been in vestigating the cause of Winter killing fruit trees in that sectiun. Ho fimls that the damage is just aliqve the line Waldo, March 22.3, 1880.

HUGH JOHNSON. of t1iedeest hitovv and his. theory is, Ujj Chimney Rock 30, Willow that when the snow- ieinbe grotnnl uas warm, and the sap rising in the tree, to just above the snow line, was frozen solid and the tree killed. Not only cheiries, peache,, apricots and English walnuts havo Wen killed but apples and pears have aKo suffered. The loss to Stul-gis' fine orehard will probably be over 1,500. It is found that some trees will be saved by cut ting oil" and re-grafting. Cattle Frozen. From Win, Bvbep of Tub; Lake, Like county, we ieam that large numbers of cattle that were well ft-d died from excessive co.d dur ing the past Winter. The cold was so intense that it produced bleeding at the noses uf the stock, and Sir. Bybee was forced to slaughter quite a number of well conditioned cattle that had their legs frozen by lying on the ice. In many instaneM the hoofs of the animals' came oil" readily fom the ef fects of freezing. Mr. B. thinks the loss of cuttle and horses in his section will not exceed one-third, while that of sbeep an 1 hogs is much greater. Our political "guess'-r" says that the lesult of Ust :SaUirdav's primaries, mraus Prim and Hunua for judges, and Kent for district -attorney. W,e offer our sympathies and will explain why, hereafter, ask no questions now. G. Karowski has been appoints! -,agent for the Agricultural Implement House.of J. I. Case it Co. Any one desiring information, can apply or cor respond with Mr Ka-flW8ki and their wants will be attended to immediately. It is said, that the. two-headed, four footed woman of side show celebrity is in California travelling northward, and may r avh Oiejjoti. The Lord spare us this affliction. We can stand the lanetary conjunction, haul winters, small pox, absconding debtors any thing; but to ak tho natives of Oregon to stand a "two-headed woman" is tusking too much. On Sunday evening last there was an unusual gathering at the M. E. Church to witness the joining in mar riage of Miss Delia, daughter of R. 0. Armstrong, and .Mr. Joseph Patterson. Many friends of the bride and groom weie present and the ceremony was performed by Rev. M. A. Villiams in his happiest style. Tho happy couple will, we hope, always look back to March 2 1st, 1880, as a day of pleasant lemembrance. Papers which try to please every body generally please nobody. The first duty of a countv paper is to fur nish its readers with the home news; after that it should tell them the most important movements in politics, and should freely express its opinions as to what is for the best interests of the country. No sensible man will fall out with an editor because he har ottiuinns on politics. We cau't all be Republicans or Democrats, any more than we can -all & jMtbodists or Presbyterians Legion of Honor. Tho entertain ment on last Friday evening was var ied and excellent, and.quite up to the standard. The- Couit House was lowded as usual. The address of Mr. Dow ell, tpiite lengthy, dealt many hard blows at intemperance and presented many ugjv facts concetning it. A meeting will be held to morrow (Thuis da) evening for the purpose of elect ting new officeiSj npointing acorn Uiitee on programme and the day for the next entertainment.
