Busch and Cassiraer Busch, which was on trial in Justice Hall's court at the time we went to press last week, resulted in a verdict for the defendants. The trouble arose over some land on Drift creek which one of the Busch bovs recently filed on. His filing included lorty acres of land claimed by Mrs. Geo. Henshaw. As nearly as we can learn, neither Mr. Henshaw nor Mrs. Henshaw had filed on any of this land, hold ing it only by settlement. After Mr. Busch had included this forty acres in his homestead filing Mrs. Henshaw filed a contest against him, claiming prior settlement. On the forty acres there is a little gar den patch and it was over this little piece of ground the fuss occurred. Mrs. Henshaw's father, Mr. Thos. Stakely, was helping Mrs. Hen shaw plant potatoes on the disputed ground, when the Busch boys ap peared and ordered them off. They refused to go, and in the quarrel that followed, it was alleged that the Busch boys pointed a gun at Mr. Stakely. Upon a warrant sworn out on this charge the trial was held. The case was tried by a jury composed ot tne tonowing persons: N. Snow, J. D. Newlin, John Lucas, T. P. Fish, Frank ( Frary and R. F. Raines. The case was given to the jury about 9 o'clock in the evening, and midnight had come and gone when they finally agreed upon a verdict of not guilty. H. Denlinger appeared for the defendants and F. D. Carson, deputy district attorney, prosecuted the case for the stale. It is due the Busch boys to say that since they have resided on Drift creek, nearly two years, that they have never had any trouble before, and that they have the reputation of being quiet, hard working and industrious boys.

An ex change gives a couple ot instances of how a great saving was made by some of its people: One saw an advertisement in a San Francisco paper offering six yards of fine silk for A remittance ot this amount brought a small spool, around which was wrapped six yards of fine silk thread. Another economist paid $2 to learn how to save one-half of her grocery bill, and was advised to paste it in her scrap book after cutting it in two. There has been some talk lately of opening the trail from the head of Depoe slouch to Keraville, or at least to tidewater on the Sile.z. It will be remembered that a party or Toledo buines mea passed over the route last sunme:-, a a', vcpo : .' that the route was an excellent one, with but few hills on it, and that a trail could be made a reasonable expense It is important to Toledo and the xvhole north p;.rt of the county that this trail be opened up. It is the shortest aud only leasible route to Kernville a d the lower Siletz country. To put a road along the beach is impracticable oxvin- to the high bluffs and the nature of the tides. Too many narrow escapes and too many fatal accidents have occurred on that north beach to ever make a practical roadway out of it. The route up Depoe and along the ridge to tidewater is at once the shortest and most feasible route. It behoo-es the business men and people of Toledo to ret in this matter at once. They can not afford to have the trade of that part of the county diverted to ai;y other toxvn. It is true that .'-e trade from there is not heavy at present, but it is increasing rapidly, and if a road or even a trail was opened up to Kernville there would be many new settlers go in alon the route. Immigration is coming in to Lincoln county and it stands us in hand to do all we can to permanently locate it. The opening of this trail would not cost a great deal, probably not to exceed $300 or $350, and we ceita'nly believe that Toledo cannot alTord to allow another summer to pass without doing this important work. As one business institution of the place we will contribute toxvard this project, and we believe that nearly every business man in town will do the same. Talk this mailer up and let us see if we cannot do something at once. O'BRIEN'S, Ex-Senator Corbett figuratively comes daily knocking at the senate door and inquiring why his cre dentials of appointment from the governor of Oregon are not good enough to let him in on. How ever, the objection to this prevails, that of delay to the tariff bill, for if the republicans should once enter upon the attempt to seat the Oregon senator it would be good-bye to any consideration of the tariff bill at this session.

Nearly all of them are men looking for homes. The senate sugar schedule is said to be almost word for word the same as the one originally suggested b the sugar trust. On sugars below 87 deg. test the rate is entirely ad valoreni, and is fixed at 75 per cent. Above that the ad valorem duty is 35 per cent., besides which the bill prescribes a specific duty of 79.100 of a cent per pound for sugar testing 87deg.,and then adds 2-100 of a cent for each degree in addition up to 100 deg., where the specific rate would be 1 .05 cents. The specific duty on refined sugar is made 1.16 cents, so that there is a nominal differential on the specific rates of n-ioo of a cent per pound, or very nearly equal to the of a cent in the house bill. But the real discrimination in favor of the trust is in the ad valorem duty. As the price of refined sugar is very much above that of the raw sugar, the differential is largely increased over that in the house, and probabjy is upward of of a cent a pound, aside from all the possibilities of the process of undervaluation.
