About fifty stables for farm and draff horses is built on the fair grounds at Salem. A’e are not a “sunbrowned and •arded cattle man” of the land of juniper and sage,” but we are aorally certain if we were, that we would be sorely puzzled to know the object of Mr. Broback’s “bill to compell owners of bulls of two years old and upwards, to prevent them from running at large.” It certainly would be a great damage to the cattle raisers throughout Oregon. It cannot represent the interest of a single cattle breeder in Lake county. The survey for a railroad route over We hope for the interest of the the Cascades, by the Cowlitz pass, has country, that the bill will not discovered several large tracts of good pass. land waiting settlement. Woinam lliglit Two of our Southern Oregon cotemporie8, the “ Times” and “ Western Star,” effect great dis gust at our legislature, for permit ting the representatives of the wo man movement, to have a hearing in the legislature halls. This is another illustration ot human na ture, arid would be a good text foira sermon. Their present at tack no doubt, is the result of a combination of causes. Minis conservative nature probably has something to do with it; that dis position to oppose change. He would rather live in this world just as it is, than die aud go to heaven. But it is more probable, iti the present instance, that it cathe from a stronger propensity of man, sometime called selfish ness, This part of the sermon might be subdivided under ■ two heads, First—The very natural fear of some men, that it women were allowed the same privileges with themselves, of lib erty and the pursuit of happiness, their own tiny tapers might be dimmed in the glare of some feme- nine beacon. Secondly — A natural fear ot *-^awpctician, felt by some ii.cn, whose cupidity induces them to oppose both men and women, whom they imagine outstrip them in the race for worldly gain. We are rather inclined to think that the case now under consideration, would come under the latter head. Mrs. Dunaway, the principal speaker at the time referred to. is a rival journalist, and both these papers have felt the sting of her pungent pen. She being a wo men, they seek to- get even by dealing in a rehash that will tick et the palates of à few old fogies _ -A'lio are still voting for Gen. Jack- son.

Following the storm of the last week at Astoria, there came into the river a large run of silver side 6almon. The fi->berm>-n have never before, since the inauguration of fishing on the present basis of canning, bad a harvest of fish like this is reported to be, at this sea son of tho year.

THIRTEENTH ANNUAL FAIR. Tho Most Successful Fair ever witne sed io Siskiyou. Our mountain city was greatly enli vened last week, by the extraordinary large attendance at tha Thirteenth An nual Fair, held by the Siskiyou Dis trict Agricultural Society, which in cludes in its area the counties of Siski you, Del Norte, Tiiuity, Shasta and Modoc, in this State, aud Jackson and Like counties, in Oregon. Visitors were present from every section of Siskiyou and representatives from the other California counties iu the dis trict were prestent, while Jackson and L ike counties in Oregon, were largely represented, including the excellent aud well drilled Jacksonville Brass Band, iu a gay looking and neat red uniform, whose members were cordially entertained by the Yreka Brass Bind, anil our citizeus generally. It was also noticeable, from the bringing in of articles at the pavilion earlier than during former fairs, that there would be a large display of arti cles on exhibition, which proved a re- ulity, as all available space and tables were filled full when tho pavil ion was opened to the public on the lir t day. \\ e hopo the management will always have the pavillion thhs opened in full blast at each succeeding fair on the first day, which can be done by insisting upon the same rules hereafter, aud thus prevent parties from takiug the advantage of what is placed on exhibition, before they bring in tbeir articles prepared for the occasion. About noon of tho first day, the Jacksonville aud Yreka bands com bined, crowded upon the deck, front and hind boots of a Concord coach, driven by Jake Chase, aud performed several airs as they proceeded through town and out to the race track, stop ping on the route, to serenade the ./»>«-/•- mil office, for which we feel highly hon ored. The races on the first day' were quite exciting and also on the second, especially the Murphy race, while on uli the other days equally lively races in trotting aud running were hotly contested amid great interest and ex citement, details of which we give in full, further along in the continuation of our review of the transactions at the Fair Groaad aud Pavilion.— Yreka Journal. ----------------- »■ George T.
