And now this dear old world of ours Again is decked in green, And grasses spring where snowdrfts white Were very lately seen.

A Western Pittsburgh. In Tacoraa a scouring mill company has just been organized.

The Dalles is destined to be a great manufacturing center, owing to its commanding location, and bordering upon a river capable of furnishing un limited water power.

Editor Chronicle : In your iesue of March 8th there appeared the following communication : WANTS IT UNDERSTOOD. The Dalles, March 5, 1893.

As my name is mentioned in this com munication (owing to my trip to Cali fornia I could not answer sooner), and as you omitted to give the desired ex planation, you will please allow me to state that The Chronicle reporter was correct in every particular that he wrote about my recent law suit in the circuit court. However, as the gentleman who signs himself "One of the Jurymen" seems to have forgotten what actually transpired in the court room, I will pub lish for his benefit the following docu ment as it appears on record in the ori ginal journal entry : A. S. Collins and Mrs. A. S. Collins vs. H. Herbring. Now, on this day .Feb. 24th, this cause comes on regularly for trial, plaintiffs appearing by A. S. Bennett, their attor ney, and defendant appearing by J. L. Story and E. Schutz, his attorneys, and there came eight good and lawful men of this county to try this cause, as fol lows : J. C. Wood, W.

B. Crossen, those $92.00 and all costs, and thus this extraordi nary law suit came legally to an end The severe, but just criticism of the result of my law suit, which appeared in your esteemed journal on March 24th was a true echo of public opinion, and though legally defeated out of $52.80 for goods sold to A.

From the ground the stumps take. When his fruit grows he'll settle right down. The Row son railroad bridge gang are quartered here. The fruit buds are a swellin', and the garden truck is up. Four carloads of wood were shipped out of here last week. S. E. Fisher is putting out quite a number of fruit trees this spring.

Mr. Creed is here to attend to his strawberry farm on Mosier creek from which he expects large returns. Agent Powers has the entire series of fractional currency from the 3-cent note up.

In fact they would have been if they had been. No harm done, however, and our informant is a -but we'll for give him. Mosier has had a metropolitan air ever since the monkey and the bagpipe visited us Sunday. What we most need, however, is a "put your nickel in the slot" concert for the benefit of those who live farther back, and are not fortunate enough to find a monkey in town when they come in to trade. "A log raising." The phrase in it self awakens enthusiasm in rural circles. Quite a number were present to help F. Zirka raise the logs for his new house last week.

Grant county's stock inspector gave the Eagle the following information con cerning the sheep of the county : "Sheep have wintered well in this val ley, generally speaking. The loss will be comparatively nothing, excepting Mr. J. Small, who will sustain some loss by having had to dip late last fall when the weather was cold and stormy." Fruit in Grant county is yet uninjured by the cold weather, and an abundant crop of apples, prunes, plums, etc., is expected. The Eagle is informed that there are about 1 ,500 head of four and five-year-old beef cattle on Beaver creek that will go into the markets of the Northwest this year. Cattle buyers state that there will be more beef cattle for sale in Grant county this year than were driven out last year. One stockman of South Fork has a band of three and four-year-olds. Crook County Bfotea. Prineville News. - Fred Smith was down from his Beaver creek possessions this week. He got his band through the winter with a loss of only seven head. The lambing season is now in progress on many of our sheep ranges, and the weather is not overly propitious there for. Some of our Eastern Oregon ex changes estimate the increase in the flocks of their neighbors at 90 per cent. This is premature ; the time to estimate such increase is when the tails are counted.

Their sheep are in good condition, and not withstanding the unfavorable weather and the short grass, they hope to raise a good per cent. Patent medicines differ One has reasonableness, another has not. One has reputation another has not. One has confidence, born of success, another has only "hopes." Don't take it for granted that all patent medicines are alike. They are not. Let the years of uninterrupted success and the tens of thousands of cured and happy men and women, place Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription on the side of the compari son to which they belong. And there isn't a state or territory, no nor hardly a country in the world, whether its peo ple realize it or not, but have men and women in them that're happier because of their discovery and their effects. Think of this in health. Think of it in sickness. And then think whether you you can afford to make the trial if the makers can afford to take the risk to give your money back, as they do, if they do not benefit or cure you. In a Sorry Plight. The road down about Spanish Gulch is reported nearly impassable by reason of washouts. As that is on the route to The Dalles, our early spring shipping point, freighters and merchante will suffer.
