energetic efforts will be made to meet
them.

Wuli-r Notes.
FORESTERS OF AMERICA.
Seventh Annual Session Will Meet Here
Tomorrow.
The river was at a stand from yester
day morning until this morning, and
has fallen .2 6lnce morning, standing at
33.G at 4 o'clock." Mr. DeHuff returned
from Riparia this morning and reports
the Snake as having fallen 2 feet at that
place up to last night. A fall of 5 feet
more is expected, and it is further
thought that the Snake will not again
reach a point an high us it has been this
season. The weather has been remark
ably cold through the upper country,
which accounts for the fall. Mr. Bay
ard tells us that at Lone Keck, Gilliam
county, Thursday night ico half an inch
thick' formed. If the reports from the
Snake are correct, all danger of high
water is over, for the Columbia itself
cannot make a flood.
This evening the officers and delegates

Sunday's Oregonian mentions the fact
that prohably four indictments had
been made by the United States fraud
jury, one of which was of I. N. Tafle of
1 Celllo, and the other three, jurors In the
laet trial of the condemnation suit
, brought by the United States against
. Tafle. It states that one of the jurors
had turned "state's evidence," and also
that Tafle had wined and dined the
'jurors. Tafle was arrested this morning
and taken below by Marshal Humphrey,
the charge against him being presuma
bly bribing the jurors.
Now, we kuow nothing whatever
about tho case, but we do know Tade'
and will wager any reasonable sum that
if there has been any "skullduggery" in
the trial of that case that it was not on
TauVs side of it. for some unknown
cause Judge Bellinger has evidently de
termined that Tafle should receive little
or nothing for his land, though the fact
ia he received as much or more damage
than anyone. Another thing that
throws diecredit upon tho whole prop
osition is the fact that unless he bribed
every one of the jurors he could not ex
pect to gain anything, unless it was u
disagreement, and he could not afford to
pay for that. J. T. AppurFon and one
other of tho jurors, we understand,
wanted to bring in a verdict giving
Tafle nothing.
Mr. Tafie has many friends hero, and
there is not one of the lot that believes
there is anything in his indictment, but
that hunger lor fees may have some
thing to do with it.
