please explain, that the outside people

One of the Jurymen.
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. C. Hansel, A.
BettinKen, Br., E. W. Trout, G. W. Mil
ler, G. Y. Joles, James Harper and S.
B. Adams, nnd after listening to the tes
timony of witnesses and the evidence in
the case, the argument of counsel and the
instructions of the court, retired in charge
of a properly sworn officer to consider
the case, and after deliberation returned
into court with the following verdict:
In the Circuit Court of the State of Ore
gon for Wasco County :
A. S. Collins and Mrs. A. S. Collins, plt'fs

H Herbring, defendant.
We, the jury in the above entitled
cause, find for the plaintiffs and against
the defendant, and assess their damages
at ninety-two $93.00) dollars.

Being asked if this was their verdict
and replying that it was, the jury were
discharged from further consideration of
the case.

clerk, Mr. J. B. Crossen, those $92.00
and all costs, and thus this extraordi

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

Eagle.
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.

The lambing season is now in progress
on many of our sheep ranges, and the

This is premature ; the time to estimate
such increase is when the tails are
counted.

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.
