Remember the "Peo 2lcs Store' The backers of Rosa S. have in informed us that they have put up a forfeit of $250 to run Blue Bell" a 'half a mile on the Bnker City track, on the 1st or 2nd Saturday after the "Presidential Election, for $1,000 a side, in response to a proposed i natch race between Mr. J. H. Ham ilton, owner of 331uo Boll and S. H. : Shepherd on the 3rd day of the Grant County Fair. In case the trainers of either of the two inarcs object to lot their mare go it is no go. When the race is 'closed and days', 'thou the forfeit is good. It will be the most exciting race ever inn on "this coast as both are supposed, to be fastest on record, and will be backed Uo the amount of 20,000 or more. From the display of grain at the 'County Fair, that was raised ondes crfc land in this County we are led to believe that Grant County is the best wheat producing county in this State. There in plenty of the same kind of land now idle and these who dosirc a ranch should i. irate atpr.ee as next year it may be too late, as the emigration to Oregon next year will bo immense.
