A'notiierParuicidk.- News reached lown last Monday that J. F. McMahon faf Wagner creek had been killed ear-y that morning by his son William who is about 23 years of age. J. H. Huffer acting as Coroner, visited the scene of the tragedy at once, and after an ex animation of the case the- returned the following verdict: We the Coroners Jury summoned toenquiie into the caUse of the death of J. F. McMahon, find that the said J. Fi McMahon was Cftv years old and a native of Ohio, and a resident of Wagner Creek, Jackson county, State of Oregon, and he came to his death at Ins residence, about seven o'clock on the morning of the 9th day of April, 1883, by a pistol shot in the outer cor ner of the right eye, the pistol being held in the hand of J. W. McMahon, and was fired wit the intent to kill the said J. F. McMahon, and that the said J. W. McMahon committed a crime by killing the said J. F. Mc Mahon, and we believe ho should be lirrested and tried for the same. When the above conclusions yere reached by the jury the aecused was taken in charge by the authorities at Ashland, where he was taken for pre liminary examination before Justice Root. After a two day's examination the justice bound him over to appear at the next term of court to answer tho charge of manslaughter fixing his bail at 500 which, by the way, seems very low to us if the accused is guilty of the crime charged. The facts elicited at the preliminary examination are about as follows: Some hard feelings had existed be tween fathpr and son for some time past on account of the presence of a widow that was stopping at ths house, and on the nomine of the tragedy the two commenced quarreling when the father picked up a stick of wood and beat the boy over tho head. Meeting in the yard again a short time after wards the fight started anew when the old man used a. fence rail for a weapon and the hoy pulled his little pistol, shooting his father in the eye and killing him instantly. We heard by telegraph last evening that the boy had given Lai! and is now st liberty.is made once a week, MB LOCAL ITEMS'. Farmers are happy. More rain this week-. Novelties atReames Bros.

While our citizens are contributing their mite to the different purposes of charity they should not forget that theie are families in this town that are actuallv sulTi ring for the necessaries of life.

Verona Baldwin, the youn; lady who was indicted for shooting "Lucky" Baldwin, has been acquitted. The re suit of this tiial is a surprise to no one and a matter of rpgret to very few. Most people are well satisfied with this result and would not have blamed this unfortunate voung lady if she had killed the man who mercilessly ruined, and then heartlessly cast her oil". A board, for the purchase of cavalry hnises. has been instituted at forts Walla Walla, Lipwai, Coeur d'Alene, Klmiath nnd Boise Barracks, and G5 horses are to bo purchased for distribu tion among the different troops of the 1st Cavliy, nt an average cost cf 125 each.

He has won honors here (one of the Vlllard prizes of 50 last year) and next year will be among the first of as promising a class as any that has gone before". Ileieis the NVw York "Suns" dtf iniiion of Bulleri.sin: Butlerism means the conglomerate sciencp of being smart and honest at the same time: of knowing shams and hating shams; of going for shams, both theoretically, and practically, and of not caring a tinker's damn who gets hurt. In the light of the recent develop m en t of the investigations instigated by Govenor Butler, especially the Tewksbury Almshouse affair, this definition is certainly app'icable to the Butlerism of to day at last.- From the ansvters to questions sent to representative farmers throughout the Willamette valley by the Oregon and California railroad and the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company it seems that the recent freeze has been rathe'r a benefit than detriment, to the wheat yield of the present year. The ground has been thoroughly mellowed, noxious weeds have been kil'ed, and the soil put in the best possible condi tion for resowing. The yield of the valley this year will be. without doubt, much larger than ever before known, and notwithstanding the ominous out look of a month ago, we can still boast that the Willamette or Rogue River valleys never lost a crop. gi For Sale.

There have been serious charges made against our representative M. C. George, in relation to the re appoint ment of Mr Nicker.scn as agent of tho Klamath Indian reservation. It up pears that there was a petition sent lo Sir. George, and signed by nearly all the settlers in the icinity of the agency, asking for the appointilicnt of O. C. Applegate lo this position and making some very grave charges against Mr. Nickerson. It now appears that all these petitions were suppressed by Mr. George and were never seen by the commissioner of Indian affairs. The right of petition is sacredly guar- antecded by the constitution, and JMr. George should be made to know that it is as much a violation of this right to suppress a petition as it is to refuse it a hearing. "Lakeview Examiner." The charge cont lined in the above item is one of sullicient importance to demand the immediate attention of our Representative. We hope he will lose no time in rendering a full expla nation of the matter and vc cannot but believe that he "ill be able to fully exonerate himself from the very seri ous charge preferred by the "Examiner" o Appreciated.
