There arc no streets, no ways of ingress m e;;ress icu the traveling public. This must be remedied and that soon. It is unite u-dikely that the school fun 1 will be apportioned be fore June, but nss.v.n as the county superintendent is noti:ie,l by the treasurer that the money is ready for apponioninc '.t thore will not be any delay in forwarding notice of the same to the district clerks. . . The May number 'f the Western Pedagogue conies to us in regular magazine form and replete with choice selections of educational gems. Tlie IV.'n.roguc is only $1.00 per anuiun and is well worth ten limes that much to every teach er. Subscriptions may be had at this office, .- The last legislature employed 179 clerks at a total expense to the state of $23,500. The total number of senators and representatives of the Oregon legislature is ninety. This makes neavlv two clerks for each member of tbe legislature and made a clerical expense for each member of H261.11. Must have been a "business" session in good truth. --- A synopsis of the game laws of Oregon as ma le by an exchange are as follows: Bool: agents may be killed from June ist to May 31st, inclusive; peddlers from January ist to December 31st inclusive; can vassers, male, from April ist to March 31st, female, from April 15 to April 14, inclusive; open season all year aroit'id 011 life insurance agents. -- 4 The last session laws are being now distribute 1 to the parties in the state who are entitled to them. County Clerk Jones' received three copies the first of the week. They comprise n voluminous volume, the greater portion of which is taken up with special laws for various local ities. As soon as the books can be completed all the justices of the peace will be supplied with a copy. The steamuhip Danube and cap tain are in a queer shape. The marine law's have been scanda lously violated. She has on more passengers than allowed by law and the law will not let them be landed. This is a complicated case. More passengers than the law allows and the laws of the land won't allow them to get off. The Oregonian can explain if the court can't. Better throw them over board. Deputy Game Warden C. W. Watts went to Corvallis last week and arrested Zeph Job, the well known banker on charge of violat ing the game law by building a dam across the river at Niagara, preventing fi h from passin;; up the stream. J. R, Wyatt appeared for the state and J. K. Weaiheif.ir and C. E. Wolvcrton for the defense. The complaint was demurred to on the grounds that it did not state sufficient facts to constitute a cause of action, and because the court did not have jurisdiction; but it was overruled. Trial was set for May 31st at Albany. The case will lie hotly contested and will be taken to the mipremc court. C. II. (lest, attorney for the Ore gon Pacific railroad has re tit mud from San Francisco, where he has been transacting some official busi ness. Mr. (lest says that there is a great incrca.c in the earnings of his line this mouth over Iat month.

An exchange gives the following recipe for killing a town: Buy of peddlers as often and as much as possible. Denounce your merchant because they make a profit on their goods. Make your own town out a very had place and stab it every chance you get. Refuse to unite in any scheme for the betterment of the material in terests of the people. Keep every cent you get and don't do any thing of a public na ture unless you can make something out of it directly. Tell your merchant that you can buy goods n good deal cheajier in some other town mid charge them with extortion. If a stranger comes to your town, tell him everything is overdone and predict a general crash in the town in the future. Knife every man that disagrees with you on the best methods of increasing business. When you have anything to say of your town, say it in such a way that will leave the impression that you have no faith in it. l'atronie outside newspapers to the exclusive your own, and then denounce them f.r not being as large as the city p ix:rs. If you are a meichant don't ad vertise in the home papers; buy a rubber stamp and use it . It mny save you a few dimes, and make the paper look as if it was printed in a one horse town. If you are a farmer, curse the town where you tiade as the mean' est place on earth. Talk this to your neighbors, make them think the business men are robbers and theives. It will make your proper ty much k' valuable but you don't car. Number 10. A temporary injunction has been sued out by D. C. Sherman restrain ing the location of the Soldier's home at Roseburg, as decided upon by the locating board. The claim is made that under tiie constitution all state institutions must be locat ed at Salem. If this be true, it is high time that the constitution be amended. There is one great trouble among growers of small fruits, They tty to grow too many to the acre and then crowd them. Solid rows of blackberries, raspberries, currents and eveii strawberries are not as good as when placed in hills either for bearing or withstanding the droughts. The canes in raspberries and blackberries should also be few and cut down to at least five feet high. These facts have been fully demonstrated in Oregon by many growers, such as Seth Lewelling, the venerable nurseryman of Mil waukee, who has been enlarging on berry growing for 30 years. -Pacific Farmer. T.nst Mondav nieht the steamer Hoag w ent to Corvallis with an ex cursion party from Albany. The boat remained there on hour, and about 150 Corvallitcs joined the party on the return trip. It was very dark at the landing, and in some manner Carey Crawford, of Albany, a young niuu about 30 years of age, stepped o(T the wharf into the water. The cry of "Man overboard" created some excite ment, .and in the jostle of the cro wd two others were pushed into the water'. These were rescued,. but young Crawford's body sank out of sight. The body has not yet been recovered. Hon. Bingcr Hermann, the rep resentative fr the first Oregon dis. ivi. t in congress, announces that two vacancies aic soon to occur in the United Stales naval and United States military academy at Annap olis, Mti., and West Point, N. Y., respectively, and that ho has been re.iiesud by Uie secretary of the navy, to nominate a cadet to An napolis, and by the secretary of the war to nominate a cadet to West Point. Any young mnn can com pete in a competitive examination who is an actual resident 'of this congressional district. Mr. Her mann will appoint au examining board to meet the first week in June, probably at Salem, to whom he will submit such applications as have been made to him before June 1st, from young men who. are eligible to apply for the army or navy ap pointment. The application for permission to stand the examination must be made to Mr. Hermann, at Roseburg, Oregon, and must state the cadetship which he desires to contest for, For the navy cadet ship the applicant must be between 15 and 20 years of age, physically sound, of good moral character, of a minimum height of five feet and be well versed in common school brandies. .For the military actv demy cadelshlp the applicant must be between 17 and 22 years of age, at least five feet iu hight, of good moral character; and must pass a very rigid physical examination.
