There is a rich mineral lelt run
ning from Montana and , Noithern
Idaho down to Southern Oregon and
Northern California. This country
is on that belt, and the continual
lindin" of rich ore strengthens the
belief that right here in Grant
county as rich mines will lje opened
as are now or ever have been work
ed west of the Rocky mountains.
George Snoderly is finding rock
in Overholt it Muldrick's tunnel
up the creek near the head of the

has been sent to Salt Lake for as
say, and tl.j News hopes to publish
the result of the findings at un
early day.
Theron E. Fell and wife of Ifcp
pner arrived in our town Sunday
evening. Mr. Fell is manager of
the Morrow county land and trust
comjiany and is one of the enter

importance for the lleppner joint
stock telegraph company, looking
to the erection of a telegraph line
from lleppner to - Canyon City if
sufficient stock is taken here.
Last Monday our photographer
Mr. llazeltiue took his machine
over to the jail and had the two
murderers McGinnis and Sullivan
sit for their photos. Pat acted like?
a gentleman, and requested that
one of his pictures !e given to "his
girl," while Sullivan acted real ugly,
and for a time refused to be photo
graphed, no doubt fearing that it
would be the means of identifying
him in connection with other
crimes before he came here.
Last Wednesday's east lound

The unfortunate man is now leing
cured for at Ontario hut his physi
cian thinks it will lie a scratch if
he pulls through. That, sure
enough, is the man who left Can

head which would have cost him
40 had he remained in the pre
cinct lie would have leen better

do not trouble.
David II. llinehart has the finest
and moft extensive orchard in
Eastern Oregon, and without doubt
he grows the lest apples in the
state. Samples can be seen at the
Nkws office at all times (when we
have them), just as sound and firm
as when picked off the trees, which
is savins: a great deal more than
any other locality outside of Grant
county can loast of. Mr. Rinehait
last week shipped a load of fruit to
Baker City, where it commands a
better price than any other fruit in
the market If Grant county had
the shipping facilities of other sec
tions she would put upon the mar
ket annually several thousand bush
els of apples.
Permanent improvements, such
as roads, bridges, county vault, etc.,
has brought Lake county in debt

ingly sings the Lakeview Examiner.
Yes, but see here, the recent decis

pay your portion of its indebted

The Humboldt company are
about ready to commence mining ,
on the hill immediately west of

about as far up as they intend

stand. An Iowa man who had been
bald for years was surprised late
ly to discover a patch of fiery red
hair about the size of a silver
dollar growing from the crown of
his head. It came forth with
surprising rapidity, and in a few
days was several inches in length.
The queer thing about it is that
what little hair he had before was
jet black, and the red locks cov
ers only a small part of the bald
place. It is so funny that he
scarcely dares take his hat off.
"Sack suppers" are to be intro
duced in Grant county as a
means to raise money for church
societies and various objects.
The plan is for each lady to put
sufficient eatables in a sack for
two. with their names inside the
sack. The sack is numbered,
the gentlemen pay a lot of mon
ey and draw a number. It is
uncertain who their partner will 1
ml
be a little child, a blushing
maiden or some other man's
wife. The fellow that wouldn't
enjoy one of these sack suppers
can be set down as a sap sucker.

Fine horses are beginning to
make their appearance in our

is surprising to see their success
in this line. We already have a

county can successfully cope
with any locality on the coast for
the fine grade of her houses.
Ever since Doc. Howard had
several freshly killed venison
spoil one night in 1SS5 while
hanging in the moonshine people
in tins precinct have been more
or less interested in moon-lore.
Doc, it will be remembered,
swore it was the moonshine that
spoiled his meat, and quite a
controversy sprang up over the
occurrence at the time. For the
benefit of those who plant pota
toes, live, move and have their
being in the moon, we will pub
lish the following contributed by
a moon-struck farmer to a local
newspaper. He says: I see a
great deal in the newspapers
about how to choose a cow, but I
can tell you a rule worth all the
rest. If a cow was calved when
the horns of the moon pointed
down, she will be a good milker,
but if born whcn the ,U)rlll. of tho
moon pointed up she will go all
to llesh, or rather to Ekin and
bones. I never raised a calf
born in the wrong time of the
moon. I always butcher in the
new of the moon and have fully
one-third more meat. I alwavs
build my fence when the horns
of the moon point up, and stake j
and rider it when the horns
point down, Use two draw togeth-

'TO SAVE EXPENSE."
Particulars of the Cooper-Jones-Jones-
Cooper Tragedy at Catlow.
"To Save the County Further Ex
pense" no Inquest was Held.
From the Jiurns Herald we
copy the following:
uAt the Colony, a place about
M miles from John Catlow's and
1(1 from the state line, two of the
boys on the horse-rodeo now in
progress in that section K. D.
Cooper, a white, one of the French
ranch's men, and Hen Jones, a
half-breed, one of the Sisson
ranch's men are said to have
had a fight in which Cooper came
! out best man, he having thrown
Jones back over the bed and
choked him till he cried enough.
Shbrtly afterward Cooper went
to the creek to wash and Jones
went into th. house for the same
purpose. As Cooper came to
wards the house Jones rushed
out upon him with a knife;
Cooper started to run around the
house, and while the boys ex
pected to see Cooper appear
round the corner, they heard a
slrug :le behind the house, and
ran around in time to see Cooper
down and Jones on him, but too
late to render assistance. Jones
was seized at once, but Cooper
spoke onlv a few words and ex
pired a later report says he was
I orne 2i miles to the house of
Mr. Denio, within six miles of
the Nevada state line, where he
disposed of his personal effects
before dying."
"The officials rode day and
night, changing horses at Dia
mond, Peter French's and.). L.
Shirk's to within -15 miles of the
scene of the tragedy, where they
were met by parties direct from
there slating the murderer had
suicided, and both men were bur
ied, as stated below:
C ooper having been removed to j
Demo's and died Thursday night, j
Friday morning the prisoner was 1
put on a horse and taken to i
where the body of Cooper was be
ing pivpared for burial bv Mike
Finn one of Catlow's foremen; a j
man named Ward the only other ;
aimed man ol the crowd, was m
the house with him. Finn's
overcoat was lying on a bed, and
while he was arranging the body,
Jones slipped a pistol out of the
pocket and walked out doors.
Finn followed, when Jones drew
the weapon on him and said "1
am going away!" lie told Finn
to tell Ward to come out of the
house. Ward appeared in the
door covering him with a pistol,
and ordering him to drop his pis
tol. Jones answered "I'll fdioot my
self!" Ward replied "Get in, if
you've got sand enough!" when
jonis lowered his pistol, got
down on his knees, placed the
weapon to his right temple, rang
ing upward, and blew off the top
of his head.
This suicide was committed in
the presence of nine witnesses,
two of whom were Messrs. Cat
low and Denio, at 0 o'clock a. in.
Both bodies wers buried on
Saturday; the officials were no
tified of the suicide and inter
ment on the road Sunday noon,
and tt) save the county further
expense thev returned to Har
ney." "
It seems from the tone of the
al cve account that Jones, as well
as the acting coroner and others
had a hankering towards saving
the county the expense of a trial,
so "he blew his own head off" in
the "presence of nine witnesses."
We ask merely for information
why Jones was taken to "where
the body of Cooper was being
prepared for burial by Mike
Finn?" Also why the coroner of
Harney county did not perform
his duty as laid down in Section
1027. Hills Oregon Code, and if
he found the I ndies buried disin
ter them and ascertain the course
of the shots if any and the nature
of the knife wounds? But the
Herald says it was to save the
county further expense, and we
will have lo admit that a new
county just starling in business
for herself as Harney is doing
must ondeavor to curtail expen
ses and run on an economical ba
sis for awhile.
