JIAKXEY 1TE1I8. Pout Harney, Sept. 2o, 1SS0. Editor lzws: Prank McBean, a life-long Republican, has come out for Hancock. Wesley Kennedy, the Govern ment agent here, and who is better known to transient visitors as the man ''vid the soger cap" packs as manv kevs around as Saint Peter. It seems the Oregonian gets ahead of our local paper in furnishing the news from this piace. I have seen in that paper a month ago the sale of Levens' cattle at Ft. Harney. It is a hand thing to have some other reporter got ahead of the News Re porter on local items. Mr. Peter French, our energetic and enterpris ing stockman was the purchaser. Dame Rumor has it that c'Pcte" has one of your pretty John Day girls corralled and has got the'Diamond" brand on the index finger of her left hand. Abbott & Whitosido the "solid Muldoons" of this section have sold out their stock and ranch to Todhun ter and Devine for $G:,000. Mr. Ab bott was a candidate for State Sena tor two years ago and was defeated by only 0 votes. Both he and his partner came to this country ten years ago comparatively poor, men; but by honorable dealing, industry and perseverance they have acquired a snug fortune. They carry with them the best wishes of this section wherever thev mav 0. "Warren W. Johnson, of this placs has taken the initiative, so far as wo have heard, bv calling a babv after General Garfield, the Republican ,i ail nominee lor the Presi lenev. The vounsr Statesman mav never live minil(yll fn r.vnwfl -ri..,. niY flln tm(.k; but bofc m 0rQium lQ accomnlishin- the difiicult feat of putting his big iorj in his mouth as the illustrious cren tleman whom he is named after could have done when at the simc age . T. As the tiihe for holding tho Fair approaches people seem to realize ' that it is going to be a grand success I and therefore they wish to be repre sented and will either take some ar t-tide for exhibition or their whole family to inspect the things there. This town has been veil visited by "commercial men" during the last month, and still they come. THE C. C. UJtASS BAX'D BALL On Friday evening, Sept. 24th, at about seven o'clock the Canyon City Brass Band, accompanied by the Prairie Cily Band marched from tho I. O. G. T. Hall down through Main Street, four abreast, in torchlight procession, to the Ball Room The spectators that were gathered on the sidewalks to witness a scene never before seen or heard of in Canyon City were more than delighted with the music that the proud band of 2o sent re-echoing throughout the hills and canyons; and each and every one vowed that the boys deserved and should have a grand benefit;' s'j acting" accordingly 44 tickets were sold. People that never attended a dance before in this place were there and 1 "tripped the light fantastic" to1 the sweet strains of the verv best of music. At near midnight the Baud played a tune in the ball room in: honor of Mrs. H. R. Sels, who had sd generously made each of the boys a beautiful rosette. Inasmuch as it is usually asked by. the absent ladies how such and such an one was attir ed we herewith give the color of the dress worn by each lady present as near as possible, and if per chance any nave been missed they will put theirself in a reporter's place long enough to learn the magnitude of the undertaking, and then hand us their name which will then appear in Tiu News: Miss Metschan, blue silk; Mrs. Ch.is.

Probably more Eastern tourists have visited this Northwest Coast during the'present season than ever before, and they all bear testimony to our unsurpassed natural advanta ges and great resources and are en tusiastic in regard to our future when railroads shall have superseded the" tedious ocean steamers and popula tion comes pouring in.
