What ails our mail service! H. llyram is preparing to lloat a fow hundred cords of wokI down tho ci-eok for town resident next winter. Mr. Win. Pago ha returned to Hnrnoy county and will nk for a speedy trial, say tho Harney Items. In tho trospim case last week the second jury found the defendant guilty and tho justice imposed a lino of $5 mil casts, which was the lean pen alty. Tho placor ground which Clark and Trowbridge were preparing to work is claimed by other parties n school lnnd and a long season of litigation may follow, Tom Curl informs us that his fnthcr Hart Curl is still suflcring from his lato iiaralytio stroke, tho entir left side of his Inxly being without feeling or muscular strength, Tho Democrat claims for Hakcr county a ?100,000 debt Grant coun- ty's debt will hardly reach those fig ures now, but tliu question might be appropriately asked, whither are we drifting!

When tho census man comes around remember hu'is not the assessor, and tho infoi mation you give him cannot h'- used for the purposes of taxation.

Dr. N. II. Young was tried in Jus tico Hulison'H court last Monday for threatening to kill three mon and a woman, residents of Fox valley. Ho still expressed a desire to engage in tliu wholesalo butcher' business "if it wasn't for his wife and child," and tho justice very properly fixed his lionds at $r00, which amount is no doubt equivalent to a $5,000 bond.

Haystack valley is farther away from its own county seat owing to the abeencn of roads than it is from any other part of Oregon, therefore wo find this bit of news in the Fossil Journal Ion;; hoforn any ono hero has learned it: John Huusacker, a citizen of Hay stack, was indicted, tried and convic ted for horso stealing a year oi so ago, Tho county of Grant, wo aro informed, sold homo of his horses' to pay the costs incurred in his conviction. His case was carried to tho supremo court, and ho to tho penitentiary. Ho obtained a now trial and a special term was culled in May to try him. It was u ground hog caso with Grant county now to convict him or pay him full value for tho horses it had sold. Word now conies from Haystack, however, that the caso was longer Kistponcd and that Hunsacker's caso was dispos cd qf in another way. On rounding up horses tho ueiglilors found several mora head of well known horses that llunsaokor had been fooling with by blotching the old brands and putting his own brand on them.
