Wagon Road Grants
Washingtos, Hay 21. Senator
Dolrhs wagon road land grant forfeit
ure bill passed the Senate this after
noon. The Attorney-General is di
rected by the bill to bring suit against
all persons claiming to own any purl
of the Eugene Uity, Dallas or Albany
wagon road land gnntR, to determine
the question of th'e reasonable and
proper completion of the roads ic ac
cordance with tbe terrus'of the Jl
Ing Acts, and the "right of the iMK
States to resume the lands granted.
The circuit court is authoriz-d to rend
er a decision and declare foreittd all
the land coteruiinus with tbe roads
not built according lo the requirements
of the Act. The couit f.hU' have the
right ts set aside all patents which
have been issued for such forfeited
land, saving and preserving the rights
of all bona Sda purchasers of any por
tion of the) land for a valuable consid
eration, iiroviasd that l he linds act
ually settled upon are occupied and
used as a homestead or for agricultural
or grazing purposes. In cases in
which such Eettler or occupant has
acquired the title of- the State of
Oregon, not exceeding one section to
any one eettler or occupant, he shall
nut bo included in such suit, and such
settler or occupant shall nut be wade a
party thereto.

Somebody has condensed the mis
tikes of life, and ariived at the con
clusion that there are fourteen of
them. Most people would siv, if they
told the truth, that there was no limit
to the mistakes of lite; that ll'ey were
like the drops of the ocean or the sands
of the shore in number, but it is well
to be accurate. Here, then, are four
teen great mistakes.: It is a greit
mistuke to set up our own standard of
right aud wrong and judge other peo
plo accordingly; o rora,ure the enjoy
ment of others by our.own; to except
uniformity of opfnioti inTTiis "5-Srui; lo
look for judgment and experience in
youth; to endeavor to mould alloiiii
ious alike; to yield to immaterial
trifles; lo look for perfection in our
own ae'ionn; to worry oui selves and
others with .what can not be remedied;
not to alleviate all that needs allevia
lion as far as lies in our power; not to
make allowance for the iiilirintties of
others; to consider everything iiupossi
ble that ue cannot perform to believe
only vtli.it our finite minds ctn grasp;
to expect to be able to understand
everything.
Wholesale Lynching. The Pom
eroy "Times" of the 18th inst., con
tains au account of the alleged lynch
ing of four horse-thieves, on Salmon
river, between White' Bird and John
Day's, Miv 7. the executioners being
a party of stockmen from Asotin
county and the Idaho border. The
victims were a half-breed called "Jack,"
Tode Farmer, aged 25; Joe Grime?,
30; und John O'Neil, 25. They and
two others were captured with about
20 head of stolen horses. The lynch
ing was with ropes suspended from
trees, the doomed men being seated on
horses which were driven from under,
at a signal. One of the two prisoners
was taken to Asotin.
A Washington special says: Rv.
Dr. Sunderland received a fee of 5100
for tying the presidential marriage
knot. It was a brand new bill, ind
had never apparently been in circula
tion. It vtm handed to the doctor by
Secretary Lamont, immediately after
the Presdent's departure. The doctor
made his wife a present of tho bill
Mrs. Sundenand will keep it as a
memento of tho occasion.
The best things are nearest; breath
in our nostrils, light in our eyes,
flowers at our feet, duties at our handx,
the path of God before us. Then do
not grasp at the stars, but do life's
plain common work as it comes, con
scious that daily duties and daily
bread are the sweet things of life.
In the space of'aweek fully 1,000
persons were killed and wounded in
various portions of the world by cy
clones, which have become more uu
merous than was evef before known
in history. The Pacific Coast appears
to be the only portion of the world
exempt from these terrible visitors.

Shortening Up-
In reply to letters wLich wt fte
quently write to old friendi and
neighbors inviting them to pay us a
visit, we receive many from California
friends who say: "I will come and
see you when the railroad runs through
to Fortland from San Franeico."
That day is growing nearer though
slowly. It is now running to a point
ten miles this side of Delta, just a lit
tie platform on the headwaters of Sac
ramento river not far from
where the JMcCloud cornea down, tang
ing its boiling song to the far off sea.
This little is in Shasta county on the
confines of Siskiyou, which is ad
joining the county of Jackson in this
State. It libs up in what is called
the State range, and thenceforth the
progress of the road will be tlew
until it ge.ts into Shasta valley, where
it will have forty miles of much easiei
grade than it now encounters. The
road will be in operation to Baileys
near the foot of Mount Shasta, by the
1st of September and then tho over
land travel will begin lo increase as
tint stage travrl gets down to about
sixty-fiveiiiilea. The Sceneiy along the
road is the Guest in tho world and the
tourist who comes by sea, rui-aes the
grandest and most beautiful ri les on
the continent. The base of Mount
Shista Can be appnaili'-d closer by
rail than tliit of any mountain of its
size in America, and that u'one "ill
suffice to cro.vd the roaM with plean-
ure seekers uxt tutuuier. Our Port
land belles will find the JLCioud
river springs a great summer resort in
a year or two and will meet the lovely
on s of San Francisco on even terms .
And when the road ia complete we
will see lots of people who do not like
to risk a sea voiage, and who will
spend lots of inouey when they come
amongst us -

That's the ridiculous side of the
proposition, the fide which is always
uppermost to my eve. LooVing at it
from the standpoint of serious con
temptation, the pageant of last Wed
upsdiy evening in Washington has
something like a Roman holiday about
it, with a Inch sluught"reJ and fire
works in the evening. Mr. Cleveland
is past 49 years of age andahis .bride
not quite 24; or in other words, he
was a man grown and earning .atuau'a
liv ing on the day that she was born
into the world, Nay, more, he was pait
her present age on llio day ahe first
began lo wa'k. Thre was another
Presidential marriage witbin ray rec
ollection the accidentia! President of
1842. His wife was a tall girl, with
dark but luminous faca and willowy
ure, named Julia Gardiner. Her
parents hud a country beat at Shelter
I.Iand, near the eastern extremity of
Long Island, where she was born.
ller agi was 26 years when she mar
ried a man of more than twice her
jears, and New York society wa3 all
agog over it. Her father was ap
pointed to one of the portfolios in the
cabinet and was killed by tbe burst
ing of a cannon on board tbe gunboat
Princeton on the Potomac river, while
firing a salute. Ihere are a few still
living v. ho recollect this lovely woman
in tho days of the artificial splendor
which surrounded her, and also recall
her pale and hopeless face in the years
that grew so weary and irksome. It
was a hollow mockery from beginning
to end.
Settlers os the public lands should
bear in mind that in giving in their
assessment they do so under oath, just
as much as when they are giving in
the value of their improvements on
their claims. They Bbould see to it
(hat the assessed valuation of their
improvements will do to compare
with the value fixed in their final
proof.
Says a Wnitsburg paper: Last
Wednesday Mrs. W. A. Morris, a
wouisn 20 years of age, committed
suicide by taking strychnine. She
had been married only about six
I weeks. Th rennnn (riven for her rash 1
act was that she would rather die
than bear a child, an event she plainly
foreSaw.
The railroad company is said to be
employing every man they can get on
the extension south from Solcdad and
it is expected that San Miguel wil be
reached by August 20th.
This promises to be the livliest
building season witnessed in Portland
since the great botm, when $3,000,-j

Jl Gastly River Mystery.
At nosn yesterday the steamsr
"Dawn" picked up tne body of a largt
man, apparently about 45 years of agr,
in the middle channel, abreast of the
city, and brought it to Hume's dock,
where the co'roner and doctor examined
it. The Jjpdy was clothed in a gray
woolen drawers and one boot, and had
evidently been in the water some weeks.
Examination disclosed the fact that a
most fearful murder had been com
mitted. On the head were three ter
tible cuts made by a (harp knife or
hatchet, half an inch deep and three
inches across. The forehead was
snmked and the skull broken in. A
hole behind the right ear being probed,
showed where a bullet had broken the
jaw and ranged downward, the sur
geon extracting the ball from the left
side of the neck. Other marks of
violence inJicated a desperate struggle
for life on the part of the unfortunate
man, who may have been murdered
100 miles above here and whose booy
was rolling to the ocean when picked
up. The coroner's inqaest was post
poned till 2 o'clock this afternoon,
when it in believed testimony will be
procured tending to throw some light
on what is evideutly a most terrible
murder.
Siuco the President iurched a
home in the -.uburs of Washington
the Americ in vandal has bten turned
loose upon it. No sooner was it
known tlu.t tho properly had passed
into his posessions than it became a
Mecca to Democratic pilgrims and
curiosity stoker. Men ttud women
pulled up shrubbery, tore off pailings,
pieces of nimlow shutters and other
things as relics, ami tlanlandd admis
sion to the house and all the grounds.
Mrs. Green, from whom it was pur
chased, by the terms of the sale was
allowed thirty days in which to vacate
the prei.iise, but lifts became a burden
by reason of hoardps who intruded
upon the privacy of the p'ace, and she
notified the President that she would
leave as soon as possible. The Presi
dent at once dispatched a policeman
tp guard the place and stop the van
d.ilism if pss-dble. On Sunday the
place looked like a camp roieting. It
is reported not to be the intention of
the Piesidcnl nut lo take up his sub
urban estate. He aimply wants a
placo where he can go in the afternoon
ami spend a quite hour tvway from the
life and care of the executive mansion.
A Chinaman arrived hero yesterday
who wishes to engaga 1000 of his
countrymen to work on the extenaion
of the California & Oregon railroad.
He will not be able to engage any
men, although he offers $25 por month.
About all the Chinese here who engage
in such work are employed at wood
chopping, and at the fisheries. A vast
number of men are at work now on
the C. i O. railroad, judging from the
move to secure a thousand Chinamen
here there is to be no stop to the work,
and the prospect for connection by
rail with San Francisco in the birar
future looks very favorable. "Orego
nian." It is now believed to be as good as a
settled fact that tbe tiparring match
between John L. Sullivan and Charles
Mitchell, which the Chicago authorities
will not permit in that city, will take
place in Milwaukee on June 11th.
Pal SLeedy has so decided, and has
about completed arrangements for the
Opeaa house as the place for holding
the exhibition. It is not believed that
the authorities at that place will offer
any opposition, and for that reason,
and as it is nearer Chicago than any
other place which could be selected,
the probabilities seem to be that the
two men will meet there.
Two drunken Indians, ejected from
the California and Oregon Railread
near Andersen, Shasta county, Cal.,
