Unfair Advantage. "It was about five yeaw ago," our informant said, "that the old lady died, she was a good old woman she was, and we got an old hard shell to preach tho funeral. There was a big gathciin that day, for everybody kuowed the old woman and the preacher w orked the case up line And jest about got her into glory and got us all a suubbin and a cryin and all the congiegation soft like when, darn his darned old picter dont you believe be stopped right short, forgot all about the old woman and called for jiners." Did he get anv? we asked. "Nary j'tner" said our friend. "Every one was disgusted at him lettiu the old woman drap and t9kin advantage of the congregation when they was sof tened up like putty that they all left people dont like jobs put up on em and I, for onp, bsliev e in inakin square war on the devil without takin any unfair holts." "If a preacher can't whip him in a fair fight, he had better goto maul in rails, for the devil will out-general him every time-" We concurred that ft very shabby advantage had been at tempted and. now we havo another friend across Rogue river.

The late editor of the "Standard" winds up his farewell by saying that; ''ami monopoly is the corner stone of Democracy." Perhaps, but uncle mon opoly is always found sitting on ihe stone. James Elliott denies having stated that he would build a two story brick on the lot just puri.Iia.scd from D. W. Crosby and savs that ho is liable to rent the projierty for a China wash house.

Lofton informs us that for tho week ending on Monday last the ther niometcr had stood at from 14 to 33 degrees below zero in the morning at his place in Spraguo river valley. Rather frigid, that. The prevailing sentiment in Con gress is that the United Stutes should have absolute control of a ship canal and the Nicaragua route seems most favored. The idea is an American one and, with fifty million neoule ta back it, ought to prevail.

They aro all wide-awake business men and any busi ness entrusted to their care will be at tended to with promptness and dis patch. ' Col. W. S. Stone Supt. of the O. & O. stage Co., is in town. He sas the roads are worse than he has ever known them and it is simply impossi ble to transport the mails on schedule time. The public are so well aware of this fact that there is no disposition to grumble. J. II. Huffer has applied for two patents on new inventions that he Ijas made.

T. was badly injuied by tho falling of a tree last summer and is srill bad ly crippled. Ou a representation of the case the railroad company remitted half the cost of his land. That Com pany is rightly nicknamed "the Benev olent monopoly". Why is there no imitation Wheeler &. Wilson sewing machines? The an swer is i simple enough; they have pat ents worth protecting nnd they up so. Companies havp attempted to inauu factum an imitation Wheeler it Wilson sewing niacliine.but were compelled to abandom the scheme although it co-.t the company thousands of dollars. Win? Michael Thomas, an old iiioneer of I 'J a cksontcoui ityVtiiT 1 1 ieCuTnTfe r of the Eigle mills, atulthe. toll ujad ovir the Siskiyou mountain, died at Ynka ou the 9th inst.

The Dalles Common Council hive forwarded a memnriil to the Commit tee of Commerce stating why a liberal appropriation should be made for the work at the Cascade locks.

Four iiien escaped from the countv jail of Marion county last Wednesday night, between six nnd seven o'clock, by rawing n 'mr off in a window in the south side of thi-jiil. The prisoners weio Carlyle, sent down from Douglas ciunty, on chfirge of manslaughter, fcr safe keeping; Pat Foley, chatged with larcenv; L B. Hall, also for larceirv ; Cambell, chargtd with burglary in house near Turner. It is supposed assistance from the outside whs furn ished the prisoners. The SIiprifT offers a liberal rew aid for the an est of the escaped prisoners. The Yreka Journal makes the fol lowing sensible remarks about the training of boys: "We admit the pos sesion of manv bad bovs, and know that Yreka lais a bad nnue outside in this respect, but we advise those who hold up their hands in horror about bovs in Yreka, to look at home, and see to their own boys as the people of a-Pkl ArRrioi,n2 toward ifi-irs, in thn way of keeping them in the rij.li road to honorable m mhood. Parents and Lunidiansare the persons who can have the greatest influence in thi? resppct, aided by the school teachers, and if they fail, the law is certain to nxert its power, in protecting a community from thu raids of young hoodlums in disturb ing the peace, or in becoming useless vagabonds and anything but steady and industrious joung men of good habits." In a long article on fruit growing in Oregon the Willamette Farmer has the following: "We met, a few days since, with Owen Wade, Esq, well known in Oregon for manv years, who quite late ly removed to Southern California, or to Santa Cruz, where, he informed us, he has a vinevnrd of twelve acres al ready in bearing that produced last v ear a crop that brought him 82,400. We state this to show the value of fruit, and we believe that in favored localities of Jackson county that the peach, pear, cherry, plum, prune and grape can be cultivated with equnl success, and that the hills and foot hills of all our Western valleys can grow the same fruits, excepting the peach and grape, to fully as good ad vantage as they can bo grown anywhere on the face of the earth, and that thev will be fully as profitable as grape cul ture is iu California. General cvti. Acting under instructions from the secretary of the interior Major Riue hart, farmer in charge, has ordered all persons hav ing stock or improvements upon the Malheur reservation to re move them without delay. Prof. Salazar, just returned from Sonora, says a guano island has been discovered in the Gulf of California, 2S miles southwest of Port Lobos. The deposit is very large and tho island contains about 16 square miles. On the 29th ult. the mercury mark ed 26 deg. below zero nt Parker's sta tion, on Burnt river. This is pretty cold for Oregon, but then that station is well up in the mountains. On the same day the record was 4 deg. below zero at Canyon City. This is tho low est temperature experienced there for sev, eral seasons. J. B. Huntington, one of the largest stockowners in Baker county, and ex tensivelv engaged in quartz mining, had an assay made the past w eek from a silver quartz vein recently discovered by him on Snake river.

The exam ination of Isaac Barman, the Poi tland merchant, on three chai ges of having obtained goods by means of false rep resentaiions from merchants in this city was concluded before J Bilge Ros- enbaum today, and accused held to answer in each charge, w ith bail set at $1,000 on each. A bill has been introduced into the New York legislature prov iding that all railroad companies iu that state shall heat their cars by steam or hot water within ninety das from the passage of the act. Non compliance with its provisions is made a misde ineanor punishable by a fine not ex ceediug 30,000, nor less than 30,000. The Oregonian publishes the follow ing description of the pleasant and plavful Mr. Hamilton, tho paramour of the Portland murderess: Jlumilujii was for in my years foreman of the United Carriage Company, of San Fran' isco, and had accumulated a small foitune, which he afterwards lost in gambling. -He was a notorious rough, and as brutal as Cat lie Bradley. Oim of his favorite sj o.ts was lo engage a stianger in conveisation iu a bar room, drink with him, gft on familiar terms, and then poke fun at the man, who would usuallv leturn hissalliis of wit. At this Hamilton would work himself into :i passion, seize a tumbler, break off the smooth rim on the ejge of the bar nnd then holdiug the base of thf tumbler in his hands, would g-ish the face of his now formed acquaintance, leaving marks to be carried for life. This ha did on soveral occasious, just because he Hind to see men carry scars from wounds which he inflicted. Gone to Her Rest Sorrowfully wo note that Mr. Mary A. Chambers, relict of the late Anion Chambers, pavsed away at 4 P. II. vesterday after a painful illness of ubout a week from pneumonia in the COih jear of her age this estimable lady was mi early pion eer iu this valley and will bo remem buied as the heroic woman who defei. difd her home tioin an Indian nltick near the historic Wagner ranch, iu this county, when her first husbiud G. W. Harris was lung muideied at her feet. Her trials on ill it dreadful October day, when her little home wassui i minded by veiling savages stamped her as a woman ot no ordinary char acter and the story of her bravory has passed into Oregon history; as one of its most thrilling events. Mid. Cham bers was widely known uml loved for her Christian virtues and gentle char acter. She bus been a mother and fiitliful guide to her orphamd grand children, George, John and .Mary Love who now mourn their Ins' lrieiid on eat th nud; one who was the tyj e of all that is loving, und true, and gentle in humanity; and whose work was so no ble, aud well done; hassurrly laid down her cross for the rtst audciovvn of im mortality. a.ucky v mow. An uregon grass widow at one time a resident of Jack sonville, as the wife of a photographer named r or lies', has turned up in a ban Francisco court as plaintiff iu a breach of promise .suit. It seems that she had received the attention of a frisky old bachelor named Ridgeway for about ten 3 pars and, failing to bring him up to the matrimonial poiut, she com menced a suit for metallic coinpenst tion for wasted time and wounded feel ing-i. The court his awarded her 55, 000 which will get her a husbmd no-t an where and the gay old tnfler will learn not to fool with widows unless he means business. .L. opinio.

Where a suit iu quity has been re fened to referee, to find the facts, and his findings have been bled, and no ob jection is made thereto in the court, bu low, by motion to set nside or other wise, the Supreuie Court, on appeal fi in the t'tcr e entered thereon, will consider no fact embraced in such findings, nor admitted by the pl.ud ings, nor pass an opinion, on any ques tion of hw not affecting tho corrtct ness of the de;ree, as bated upon such tin lings and admissions. In noticing the nbove decision the Statesman says: By referring to the Supitiu-Court proceedings, it will be seen that ono of the btnte cases has been finally decided. After being first decided by Judge Deadv, then by Judge Boise, and finally the decison of Judge Boise allirmi d by the Suj reme Court, the people of Oregou can no longer haven doubt as to the justice of til Slates claim, nud 'tho fmud practiced !v the late Siato officials.

When marked both ways, two small boys, with a wooden Spoon large enough to hold a certain num ber of seeds, do the dropping, covering with tlyj hoc. In this way we aro suro of u good stand. On clpan or new land I would drill aud thin to an even stand. Moie cane can bo grown to the aero in this way than in the for mer. As soon as the rows can be seen ww go through with the hoe, cleaning it nicely, aud thinning now and then when nee ssary, to fiom 5 to 7 plants to the hill; after this cultivate same as for corn. As soon as cane is in the hard-dough, strip and immediately cut. taking six rows at a time through the field cut ting and topping at the same time. dropping tops in pilo at end of cano pile.- Iheii, s soon as possible, I bauS the cut cane and pile itin bulk by ido of track at mill. I never let it lay longer than two davs in the field. I always cover cane well with bagasse after it is piled.in bulk, and nnver lot l get w et, nnd, abov o ull, neser pilo when wet. The seed, when cured, I haul and stack in the stack vard nnd thresh with the other grain. T sell my seed at tho mills to grind with chop feed. Th stsd viebl is from 20 to 30 bushels to the acre, according to the kind of cane. sll niv present seed crop for 3U cents per bushel."
