Here is the latest blue grass yarn:
At the conclusion of an impassioned
address down in Kentucky the other day
Col. W. C. P. Breckinridge announced
that he was weary, and that as soon as
his campaign was ended he would visit
England. Whereupon the leader of the
band, who happened ta be an English
man, struck up "God Save the Queen."

"The notion that the power ot the toes
of the men and women of modern times
is destroyed by the binding up of the
feet in leather through the greater part
of life is incorrect," Bays a great London
physician. We think the physician is
correct ; indeed the binding up of the
feet in leather is conducive to their
strength. If rubber is used instead of
leather the effect is still more powerful,
in fact overwhelming.
Where Is McGuIre?
Near the bank of the Klamath river at
Pokegama dam, projecting a little out
into the roaring flood, is seen a box in
which nearly 150 salmon trout a day are
handsomely caught. Among the salmon
trout jumping the dam are the unfortu
nates that never look before they leap,
but land in the box and lay there gasp
ing and floundering all day, until the
owner of the box comes along and
shovels them into his fish cart.
The above item is going the rounds of
the press, and it does not seem possible
that it can escape the eyes of our doughty
fish and game protector. We suggest
that here is a case where a conviction
might be had for violating the game
laws.

Attorney J. L. Story, formerly of The

The above news item is all right only
Brother Shutt got hold of the wrong
Story, W. J. being the man instead of
our own J. L. It's funny though to
think of the latter as occupying the
editorial chair on an agricultural paper.

The case of the state against Stewart
is still nndecided, having been post
poned until this morning. One of the
gentlemen wanted as a witness was not
forthcoming Saturday simply because he
was not served with a subpoena.
That witness was Mr. Branner. He
was preparing to go hunting over in
Washington when he discovered the
constable was looking for him, and al
though busily engaged in loading eata
bles into the wagon at the time, he sur
rendered that job to his friends and
Btruck out at a Robert J gait around the
corner from his restaurant and down
Court street. A kind friend suggested
to Constable Urquhart that he had
gone up to Mays & Crowe's to buy am
munition. The constable who is on to
his job, remarked that he guessed be
would catch him, and so climbed into
the wagon. It was a good piece of
strategy under common circumstances,
but the strategist overlooked the fact
that the party was going hunting in
Washington. When the load was com
pleted the party drove down to the ferry
landing, and there the constable discov
ered that Branner was profiting by the
Salvation Army's advice to "Pull for the
shore," and was half way across the
Columbia. Branner had the hunting
trip and the constable had the pleasure
of making a return to the effect that
witness was not found. The party ar
rived home last night with seventy
birds.
A Pretty Home.
Yesterday we visited Hood River and
took n drive out through the valley, tak
ing dinner with Mr. and Mrs. John
Parker at their new home. It was
astonishing to see how rapidly that sec
tion is developing and the pretty home
and young orchards of Mr. Parker were
a typical example. Three years ago the
forest alone held sway where now thrifty
trees and luxuriant vines give promise
of future wealth. It is one of the
prettiest places in the valley and that is
Baying a great deal. There is a fine view
of Mt. Hood, and the land sloping gently
down to Hood river gives a magnificent
view of that stream as it plays leap-frog
over the bowlders on its mad chase to
the Columbia. The scenery was grand
and twenty years ago might have evoked
a half column of sentimentality, but
gray hairs have brought wisdom and we
confess that our tenderest recollections
are of the dinner.
For the Defendant.
The case of the State against Stewart
was finally decided this morning, the
evidence being all in and arguments
submitted about 11 o'clock. Justice
Davis decided that the evidence was
not sufficient to justify binding the de
fendant over to appear before the grand
jury, and she was therefore discharged.
The case was very hotly contested all
the way through, Deputy Prosecuting
Attorney Phelps putting up as good a
case as the circumstances would admit,
and Hon. Hon. E. B. Dufur, who con
ducted the defense, seeing that no de
batable points went against him. The
moral to this case is that it is dangerous
to have $375 all at once, sometimes and
places or to think you have it.

Notice to Water Consumers.
The charges for patent closets when
used when necessary only, is 25 cents,
but when a constant stream is allowed
to flow, the charge is $5 per month. In
the last two years a large number of
closets have been put in, and in a large
number of them a constant stream is
allowed to flow. The drain on the water
supply has become so great that I am
compelled to enforce the rules, and will
hereafter charge $5 per month for all
closets using a constant stream of water.

Deserving Praise
We desire to say to our citizens, that
for years we have been selling Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consumption,
Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's
Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and
have never handled remedies that sell as
well, or that have given such universal
satisfaction. We do not hesitate to
guarantee them every time, as we stand
ready to refund the purchase price, if
satisfactory results do not follow their
use. These remedies have -ron their
reat popularity purely on their merits.
