The bto ry is full of inteiiHely interoHting in cident, and is told with a simplicity and pathos which go straight to thu heart. .Sherill' llray brought Alva Tupper luck with him when he returned from below. Tupper is thu fellow who Lroko out of the old jail here iu 18SL. He was then under indictment for robbing sheep camps and other mUdo mcauorx, nml lifter escaping from hero he went to California and served a term at Sail Quentin for stealing, when he was released and enmu to Or- oiin.

Air. Hogerdald has been a resilient of (irant county for over twenty years, anil is comorxant with the lcquiremcnU of this country. Ho is a thoroughly conscientious man and would repre sent Oiant and Harney to their Iwst intcrosts. W. K. Monet wrote to Mr. South worth of this city a few days ago concerning the stock losses iu Har ney county about DrowBoy nnd tho south fork of the Malheur. The letter was dated March IStli, and stated that propels were not very fluttering; the most of the country was still buried in snow, but thu south hillsides were bare and grass growing nicely. The loss of stock was fearful nnd many feeding yet on grain nt '2 and .'I cents per lb, and stock slill dying. Mr. Moll'et thought that JI.'IJ jier cent, of all stock both horses nnd cattle would h. a low estimate of thu loss of an imals that wcro fed. Horses fared worse than cattle, as tho snow was three feet deep and so lco?o that they couldn't clear it away with their feet it would fill in as fust as they could net it away. Ho writes also, that thu loss of stock ton years ago was not a circumstance to the past winter, and that newspapers have cttiinated tho losses a great deal lighter than they really are. Letter List.

SOME COUGAKS KILLED. .Mr. Win. Jefferd who lives on Strawberry brought sonic cougar scalps to town Tuesday which he exchanged for county script, and related to the Nkws man tho story of the capture of three of them. Dick Johnson had a fight with them when they killed his dog, and the following day Mr. Jell'erd, Ralph Fisk, Hart Hardmau and Mr. Johnson started out on snow shoes to hunt the fierce wild beasts, and along about noon succeeded in killing one, and two more that were seen made their escape. Tho boys stopped under a piuo treo to eat their lunch and were sitting there talking when down jumped a large cougar, and investigation lovoaled another one up tho tree. War was at once declared and both tho ani-. mals were shot and their scalps carried away as $10 remembrances of the battle. Thu tree was of thick foliage, anil the cougars had been crouched within a few feet of Fisk's snow shows which ho had leaned against tho treo, and tho guns of tho hun ters wero also leaning against that Banio treo, and it is needless to aav that tho men felt relieved to think they had not furnished a mual for tliu bold colt and calf eaters. f f . rewiurcc e win mi a nt.. of this paiwr with therifTwidtl any number of citizens of tho coun ty will furnish us n list of lands which could be nurchnwd with out side capital, nud any other informa tion tending towards tho good of tho country, on condition that poo- plu who dosiro to see our county brought to the notice of outsiders take an interest in this matter and collect and deposit the cath with some resM)iikible person to pay for at least 800 extra copies of tho pa per at the regular price of ten cents each, which wo will agree to mail from this ollico to any address, within tho United States or Canada which those who coutrihuto may do.Mgnato. o do all this work free, but ask that people and communities who would be benefitted thereby furnish us the information, and a list of ho tels, reading rooms, immigration boards, real estato dealers or indi viduals to whom they wish a copy of thu boom edition sent, accompa nied by the cash at 10 cents each to pay nctual expenses which the ex tra labor and additional pitKT would necessitate.

HolliiO being twentv- than the parent House will le a uioveiiicnt made, as soon as tho figures from the new census aro obtainable, to pars an appoint ment bill. Should thu new ap pointment bill bo passed by a s cial session, as the republicans now generally ndvise, tho measure can lw carried out by twenty-four legis latures which convene in January or Fobrtinry of 1st) I. If enacted so late as March I MM, tho legislatures of about thirty-fivo states will have to bo called iu sjiecial isession iu or der to comply with the ptovisious of tho act before the presidential election. On a basis of !I55 mem bers of the House, the electorul col lege would have Mil members, and tho successful candidates could go through with tho magic 222. The proper legislation can only bo de layed by the census ollicers, who are on their nu ttle to make a re cord. Though he modestly and coylv denies the fact, Senator Quay is af ter tho scalp of Col. Canaday, the sergeant-at-arins of the senate, who holds his iHiMtion by favor of Sena tor Sherman. A caucus of republi can senators was held at Senator Kdmuuds' this week at which it was expected that tho subject of re organizing the senate force of em ployees would bo thoroughly din cussed. The Senators present state huwever, that they only talked about the Montana senatorial mud dle. With tho vote on tho Hlair bill, terminates for a wliilo a How of elo xiiencu that threatened tho very life of republican institutions. In six mouths longer of opiiortiinity, Senator Hlair would have talked tho liguro of Liberty oil' tho dome. Think of a man talking himself tir ed for thu better jmrt of eight con secutive legislative days on a worn out subject to an audieiKo fully in formed on every phttEc of tho ques tion. Small wonder that Senators lied as from a pestilence and found comfort only in the restaurant. The Civil Servieo Commission MITi llKM. SMITH. Smith iV Succtssors to J.
