COAL NOTE.
Coal brings a very fair price and t lis demand
is good.
There are lots of fine veins of coal on tho
headquarters of tho McKenzie.
Tho day is rapidly approucliiiiir when coal
will elbow iron out of thu country.
Largo quantities of coal arn being delivered
in this city by Messrs. Church and Coulter.
About two-thirds of the incomo of tho P.
H. It. is derived from tho coal shipments
mado over tho line.
With iron oro and coal in such abundance,
tho Willamotto valley should be tho great
manufacturing confer of tho north slope.
The great undeveloped coal resources of tho
Willamotto valley will, we undent ind, bo ex
amined by experts from Pennsylvania in a
short timo.
Thu O. k G. H. It. at one time proposed to
develop the mines at tho head of liutte creek,
but for some unexplained reason akaudoucd
the project.
Tho coal transportation over tle Seattle
and Walla Walla Railroad for tho month of
October from Newcastle is about 11,000 tons,
and from Itcnton 2.M8, making a total of 13,
V!8 tons, 12,844 of which was delivered on
ahipboard for San Francisco, and tlto balance
for the local trade.
I'rlsulaat Prartlees.
A couple of men named respectively Itogtrs
and Waudby, living somewhere on Pine creok,
havo got themselves in a nice scrape. Some
time ago, under pretense of engaging in fann
ing, they bought of Newbury, Hawthorne fc.
Co. a thrcshinir machine and tome other im
plements, paying for part of them, .and soon
after bought several wagons, hocks, and other
goods en credit, iliey also purcliaw-d a mini
ber of horses on time from different parties.
After conert.ng the machinery and other
stuff as was too cumbersome for them to carry
off into cash, Itogert took somo forty head of
horses and other goods and started for Mon
tana. Waudby staid around a few days afier
his departure to ward off suspicion, and then
took the track nf his accomplice. The affair
toon came to tho knowledge of the ullio rt of
the law, who immediately armed Geo, Tru ,x
with a warrant and started him after them.
Waudby and wife were overtaken a abort dis
tance from Cieur d'Alene and brought back,
but as Mr. Truax't horse hail given -out, he
could not follow llogurt, who waa atwnt one
hundred miles ahead nf his rartoer. A ins
cription of Ilogers ha been tent to Missoula
by telegraph, and he will be arrested when he
rtache that point.
The Carnrr Kad
Messrs. Y. W. Godard, of this city, and J.
M, Fisk, of Colfax, who have just passed over
the road from Cheney to Spranglo, report it
in a fearful and dangerous condition. Mr.
Godard tayt there are places where a wagon
ii liable to be bioken at any time with the
horses on a walk, and that such a thing as
hiuling heavy loads over it is impossible.
T iey say the road it built partly through
ornns and partly over huge boulders, and
that there it no dirt tultabl for tillini: to be
Lottained within any reasonable distance.
Tl.ey left Cheney at 2:30 r. l. and did not
rescii Surancle until lonir after d,rk. beinu
vuiujwiicu iu travel at a siuw wik lor sev n
miles out of Cheney. In their opinion it will
cost the county fifty thousand dollars to make
the road passable, in Summer, and in Win er
ii-i . . i i -i- ,i. y
nothing but a baloon or a bird can pass over
it. Mr. Godard made his first trip to Spokuu
Fulls lost week, and recommends that place
to the voters, hoods leading to and from it
aro always in a splendid conditiou for travl,
and no delays ars experienced in Winter or
Summer. '
l'lCTDRKD ItocKs. We understand that
the Indiana of by.gone days Itave painted a
history of their exploit upon the rocks around
the rapids at the narrows, commonly kuowti
at The Dalles, about five miles from this city,
Itude hieroglyphics can be seen on the rock,
the interpretation to which furnishes quito au
amusing legend. For a long numlxr of year
these rude pictures have withstood the storms
of Winter, and now stem a fresh a though
recently from the dauber' band. Some tium
in the future we propose paying a visit to theto
pictured rocks, so as to be able to bora our
readers with au article on the antinnitv of this
regiou and Siwath mythology, Dalltt Time.

account Messie, tlte brutal Russian murderer,
who escaped from the Port Townsend jail in
the absence of the jailer and probably with
the connivance of tome one in the town, hat
not been heard from. In all probability
Messie has fled to the wild part of the Terri

habited almost entirely by Indian. With

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
Tho returns received in this city by mid
night of the day of election showed the success
of the Republicans in all the Eastern States
except New Jersey, which was in doubt. It
is wonderful to see what perfection this age
has reached in gathering and sending nows.
llcforo wo could tell how Oregon was carried
wo knew tho general returns from all other
States.
In Oregon the election is close, hut chimed
by Ilepubllconsby from 300 to fiOO majority.
The returns, so Republicans claim, givo them
1,'JOO majority in Western Oregon, as follows!

2S; U 270; Umatilla, !M0j Union, 230;
Wn-co, 150. Estimated Democratic majori
ties, 1,772. Probably tho final result will not
vary far from tho abovo figures, and it seems
as it tho State was safe for Uarlicld.
Up to Thursday noon, the news appears to
bopositio thatvall tho so-called Southern
States ha e elected Democratic Klcctors, and
that tho North excepting Nevada, California
and Now Jersey has all gono for Garfield.
Tho following estimate is mado of majorities
in Republican States! Colorado, 3,000 major
