What H. H.' Easier, Editor of The Lyons, Nebraska, Sun Thinks of Webfoot. In the early fall Mr. H. H. Basler, editor of the Weekly Sun of Lyons, Nebraska, visited this city on his tour of the Pacific Northwest. He is an intimate friend of W. Davis and N. P. Peterson and their families, re cent arrivals who are now looked upon as fixtures in our city. Mr. Basler is a very intelligent gen tleman and is publishing an ac count of his recent trip in his paper, a copy of which reached us. The following extract will prove that he was most favorably impressed with our ' city and county and has ably peuned a true picture ot our country as it is: ; At Portland we parted com pany for a time with the North ern Pacific and placed ourselves in the care of the Southern Pa cific Railway company. Again we find ourselves fortunate in that from General Agent Miller down to the most humble em ployee with whom we came in" contact there is a uniformity of courteous treatment extended as which made our trip .one of great pleasure. -This road from Port land south throagh Oregon tra verses one of the most fertile re gions, of the west, if ndt in the world. We traveled on the main line as; far south as Albany and then took the Cortallis & Eastern Railway to Corvallis, our objective point in this direc tion. It is here that oar friends and former townspeople, the families of. W. G. Davis and N. P. Peterson are located and we' had the honor of being their guests during our stay. Benton county, of which Corvallis is the capital, is situated in the heart of the far famed fertile valley of the Willamette. This country is famous for its magnificent cli mate, extensive and varied fruit interests, bountifal ' w&2at crops (from whicft cereal one of the local Corvallis millers produces flour which has twice taken the silver medal at world's exposi tions) and stock raising is also a prominent- industry. We feel inadequate to the task of review ing these features as our stay was rather brief. The climate in early September was ideal. The air was soft and balmy, neither to warm nor to cold, and the sun shone brightly for the most part and : everything appeared as bright as an October day in Ne braska. This : being " near the closa of the dry season the roads were rather custy lor pleasure driving," We took two drives in the c&untry while there, with Messers. Davis and Peterson and their families, and to say we en joyed it is to draw it very mild. he broad level fertile valleys, riven here ana tnere oy clear mountain streams and .skirted by foot hills and mountains clad with forests , of ak and carpeted with luxuriant grasses form a andscape most- beautiful to be hold.. While the fields from which the golden grain had been taken and the great orchards of fruit laden trees and the beauti ful farm houses and homes which we passed in ur drive all spke of the substantial nature of the Country and lead One to believe that it was a land of plenty. It was on this trip after we had fill efi our pockets and "bread-baskets" ith praues and other suc culent fruits taken (aot stolen for they are asfree as water) from the great orchards alorg the way that we literally experienced the ulnllment of the expression as Mr. Peterson pul it, of beiflg ' We found exultant over the climatic and topographical beauties of the country and abounding in hope with reference to the business outlook. And we doubt not, from what we saw of the Valley, that their expec tations will be realized. It is but fair to say in this connection that in contemplating a change, so marked as that ot moving from Nebraska ta Oregon to live, it would be unwise to take any decisive action before viewing the country for one's self. ;. was decorated with tinsel and iry, . while .

District Attorney Brown moved for a dismissal of the case against the Chapmans and it was granted. These cases have been upon the docket for two years, but at each term of couat the prosecuting witness has been too ill to attend. Conviction could not be secured without his testimony, and costs were piling up while it was being continued. In the case of Sewart & Sox vs J. 11. Mitchell, action on promissary note, the jury brought in a verdict ot fii8.86 tor tha plaintiffs and $20 attorneys fees. The jury found for the plaintiff in the sum of $16 s, in the ac tion for recovery of personal property brought by H.' Mitchell against Sheriff Burnett. Mitch ell asked for the return of his property and $ico . damages. The charge of assault with a dangerous weapon bronght by the State against Pearl Cooper attracted the . attention of tke general public " more thsta any other case in the docket. As suggested by the GETTE at the. time of the hearing in Justice Holgate's court, the defense urged accidental shooting. Readers of this paper are farni- iar with the fact as brought out at that time. Numerous wit nesses were examined by both sides, and all day Wednesday was consumed ia hearifig the evidence, and in the pleading by counsel. The case went to the jury at 7:30 In the evening. After several hours deliberation, a verdret of "not guilty" was re turned. " . Yesterday being a legal holi day, court adjourned until this morning. V our mends here A Pretty Home Wedding. THE fARMERSTvON. Salem Went Doya Before Them by a Score - of Seventeen to Six. . ThatO A G is the coming team was demonstrated by the defeat administered to the sturdy players from Willamette Univer sity yesterday. The 'varsity men were heavier than the farm ers, and although defeated at the opening of the second half, they played with a "never say die" spirit, until the final whistle. No cleaner game was ever flayed ou any field. The impartial rul ings of the officials, Messrs. Judd, of Salem, and Bruce Burnett, of this city, and their evident knowledge of the game received the applause of the 500 specta tors who crowded the sidelines. Willamette has a team tna will worry future aspirants tor foot ball honors, but O A C will set the pace next season. Captain Gault did yoemaa setvice. His plunges were terrific, and netted from three to " forty yards. Sweak' tackling and'eharging at the line kept his name on every Hp. Nash, Gtllatly, Wilf Hams, Rose, Laughlin, m fact, every man on the team played like a veteran. THE GAME. The farmers chose the west coal, and Salem kicked off to Gault, who ran in 20 yards.
