The case of the State of Oregon
vs. Geo. 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.

Some people are always on the
lookout to save money. 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. Washington Post.

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.
