An abund ant supply of water, conveyed In an elevated Hume from Hood river, reaches the tract, and arrangements have been made to conduct it to the eucampmeut silo without additional cost. There ia a tine drill ground, 1000 fuel long aud 700 feet wide, for infantry drill, and also One ailes for artillery and cavalry practice. It is estimated that there will be about 700 oflicors and men ia camp. The troops will be transKrted to the ground by boat aud rail, as the lime of the en campment, sis days is too limited to allow long marches to and from the field, An Fagle I'oint corresiondcut of Ibe Medford Monitor-Miner says: The big grhzlcy, ol Cat bill, so long tbe terror of stockmen, has at last been killed.

The uuuual rouuiun of the B. 1'. D. Llks at MiuneaoIis iu July promises to be one of tbe grandest affairs ever giveu in tbe United States by a fraternal order. Twelve thousand Klks, with their ladies aud frieuds, are already booked for Min neapolis, besides the thousands of visit ors that are sure to bo there at that time, and, we quote from the Times of that city: "Fair Mi'juie will deck beraelf iu queeuly attire to receive nobly aud to eutertaia betittingly tbe aullered horde." The "Times Elks Edition" in addition to tbe regular news, contains eight pagea exclusively devoted to Elks, profuaely illustrated with ortraits of prominent members of tbe order. It is a grand advertisement for both Minne apolis and tbe Elks, and both will reap a beuetit the former a golden harvest from the thousands of visitors aud the latter by a graud boom in (be grow th ol tbe order.

You see I am only one of those old Itmitt who entered the service just before I waa sixteen and lost some op portuoitya for an Education and dont want my articles msde to appear worse than they are. Yours Truly A. W. Lams, I'oit Com. We beg lo apologue for tbe omission of the word and letter referred to abovef aud lo explain bow it occurred. When manuscript is sent us for publication, II fairly well written, il is given to the printer just aa received, without altera lion or correction by the editor. Thil was the cane with tbe article above re (erred (o, and on reading tbe proof the omiasions made by the printer were not delected by the proof reader. Ed The Review's Popularity "Tho Ueview baa more subscribers aud more advertisers and is payiog bet ter thau ever before." What is it kick ing about then, if the alove is true? But it ia not, and that's what's the mat ter. The lie view speaks of "small boy polililana" in tbe county. We wonder what class the Iteview editor belongs to. The swell beads, of course. Weremem- ber about three years sgo, one beautiful summer evening in the early part of June the sovereign people of old Douglas bad choaeu representatives. And as the couul of volea began Fisher seemed to lead andhe stuck bis thumbs iu tbe ermholeS of bis vest and sauntering up to some of bis benebmen in front of lbs Van Houten bo ; sneered : "I wonder what will think when the votes are cuuuteu;' inree hours later Fisher could answer bia uwu queetion, as he waa some three hundred. volea be hind Mr. and aa be sneaked off be could bare worn a hal four eiies smaller. S. No Further Cause for Complaint. Ldii ok l'LAiMtALLi. : The Review says: "the correspondents iu the Fi .MMjtALtK have not alleged any mis- demcauor." If robbing the cily, receiv ing boodle, running bunco-steering skin game dens, urging, aiding, advising and abetting lawlessness and resistance lo law and order are not, wbal ou earth constitutes misdemeanor in bis crainped aud distorted mind? Is be so lost to all solf respect and manly decency that be is unable todistinguish right from wrong? His brainless prattle iu his last issue would lead one to believe so. C. Mining Notes and News. Tbe Mining and Scientific Press, in speaking of tbe gold fields ol Portlier n California, says wheu we take into con sideratiou that tbe land embraced in tbe counties of Shasta. Trinity, Siskiyou and Southern Oregon, according to tbe viewa of eminent geologists, was tbe first of the mineral ranges to raise above tne ocean, and from tbe further fact of these locali ties being the seat of great volcanic ac tion, we can begin to reason as to the cause of such a widespread quartz strati fication and of tbe great golden possi bilities of these northern sections wbeu capital shall be found bold enough to delve deeper into tbe bowels of those mineral racgee. That age has much to do in tbe formation of metallic deposits and the maturing of them, no one in these later daya questions, whether the mineral be told and silver, copper or iron. The great trouble in these north ern counties is that capital has not yet become bold enough to put in large plauts. It says that no mine approxi mates development sufficiently to show its true value short of 100 feet in depth, and there ia no promising lode at the surface but what will be a paying propo sition, at some oint of a 1,000 feet de velopment. Man Killed Near Salem. Sallm, r., May 11. The south-bound Southern l'aciric overlaud train, reach iug here at 8:30 p. m., ran over aud killed a man here tonight.

We. ac- companied by our lord and master, spent one day at tbe old and well-known Hole- In-tbe-Uround mine, which was lately purchased by A. J. Kichardaon and sons ofStayton. Thiamine during tbe past lorty years has yielded thousands ol dol lars ol tbe precious metal and it seems that its development haa just com menced, and the new owners have a veritable bonanza in this recently ac quired property. Mr. Kicbardson baa consolidated bis mines. Tbe claim of John Scott on the east and the joint pro prietors are running their giant with six men at work, and also one building Humes and have erected a comfortable house, aud near their fine orchard we noticed a nice gardeu. The orchard of large trees of various kinds of fruit is across Wolf creek opposite the mine and was in lull Doom and beauty. As we gazed about us wo were surrounded by cbsngiog scenes of wonderful enchant ment. It seemed a fairy land Irom "all tbe world apart." As tbe hour of noon drew near we were recalled lo earth by the matter-of-fact suggestion of hunger and iu response to an urgent invitation we were tne gueeia of Mr. Kicbardson to dinner. Surprised agaiu when we were seated al the bountiful table so neatly arranged and partook of delicious viands, cooked delicioosly, that it aroused with iu us a tinge of envy that any woman feels when abe sees her own work sur passed. Mr. Richardson's younger son is his housekeeper, and this is bis first experience in culinary work. Aa we looked askance at the handsome cook and tasted the delicious food we almost sighed for tbe days ol "sweet sixteen," alas ! so far behind us. A.J. Richardson was a member of the Albany convention tbat nominated Tboe. U. Tongue for con gress, and we felt a thrill of pride in tbe dignity of America and ber institution. that will always be upheld by honest men, when we knew that be was tbe man wbo cast twenty seven consecutive votes tor tiinger Hermann, wnicn waa a test ot fidelity that is wortny ol emuia Hon, and yet Mr. Richardson says that next to Binger Hermann his choice waa Thomas U. Tongus. So be is loyal to our representative and a republican who does honor to our psrty. We thank Mr. Richardson, his sons and all who were present for most courteous treatment. Mollie. Elkton.
