KILLED BY A BULL.
W. D. Armstrong so Badly Injured fey En
raited Animal That lie Died..
W. D. Armstrong was o badly
injured by an enraged bull last
Monday afternoon that he died
within two hours. News of the
distressing event was brought to
this city about 6 o'clock Monday
evening by a messenger who came
td secure medical assistance for
the injured man. Dr. Cathey
left immediately for the Arm
strong home, four miles south of
Philomath, but death had reliev
ed the sufferer before his arrival.
Mr. Armstrong, who was 68
years of age, was leading the ani
mal, a hornless Jersey, from the
pasture to the house. A short
chain was attached to a ring in
the bull's nose, and Mr. Arm
strong was leading the animal by
this chain . when it made the at

: The i 2 -year-old grandson of
the deceased" was returning home
from school in the afternoon y
when his attention was attracted
by loud- bellowing. He saw. his
grandfather prostrate and the
maddened bull butting him vi
cisusly. Without a moment's
hesitation he seized a club and
bravely attacked the enraged ani
mal, which refused to be driven
off. Mr. Armstrong - called to
the boy to run to the house, some
two hundred yards distant, and
get the shotgun. Securing the
weapon, the lad sent a charge of
shot in the animals nose, causing
15 to aesisr, in its attack.
By this time the family and
Names ' Henderson, a neighbor,
had arrived on the scene, and
they assisted the wounded man
ta the house, where -he died two
hours later. Dr. Ioggan was
summoned, but he found Mr.
Armstrong beyond medical aid.
His collar bone was broken, sev
eral ribs penetrated the lungs,
and he was otherwise injured
about the head and chest.
Nothing is known of the cause
or manner of the attack, except
what was learned from the vic
tim.- He had stooped over for
some purpose, when the bull
rushed upon him, knocking him
prostrate. Being feeble, his ef
forts to escape were . futile, and
hi! was soon too badlv hurt to
make further attempt
Mr. Armstrong had been a
resident of Benton . county for
thirty years, and was well known.
A few years ago he and his wife
had charge of Cauthorn Hall.
After resigning this position they
took up their .residence with their
daughter, Mrs. A. O. Bowerscx,
whose farm joins his own, near
Philomath. , ; ," , ;

Great Northern railroads to build
up this state and their immense
capital aad- efficient organization
brought business and people
and Washington has surpassed
Oregon in population and cliim
a commercial supremacy. Tin
claim is not easi y . established, j
While Washington has more '
arge cities and towns than has
Oregon, an . uupaddtd census
would doubtless givs Portland a
population greater by 25,000 tlur?
Seattle; and Portland ioboing
houses sell goods throughout
Washington, while practically
none of the Oregon .business
comes to Washington cities.
Washington's iatio of ? dvance
ment cannot be maintained al
though her growth will be rapid.
Her resources have already been
largely exploited and many parts
of the state have been over-capitalized.
Oregon, much richer in
natural resources,' will not be able
to hide its light under a bushel
longer, and it is reasonable to ex
pect that the state will grow faster
than its northern neighbor. .
As between Portland and Seat
tle, the former has "a local back
ing that Seattle can never have.
The trade of the Columbia and
Willamette valleys belong to
Portland and will go there, until
the laws of gravity are suspend
ed. Seattle has harbor advant
ages but in great cities a harbor
does not seem . to be an absolute
necessity: and when Portland has
learned to make the. r&outh of
the Columbia her harbor instead
of continuing the costly and
heart-breaking" plan of hauling
her freight vessels up the Colum
bia and Willamette rivers, she
will have a positive harbor ad
vantage over Seattle, in nearness
to the sea. Portland will always
control the shipping at the mouth
of the .Columbia, and can profit
ably spare the trade of stevedores,
warehouse employes and ships
crews. "
Portland is far richer than Seat
tle. It is a creditor city. It is
the Boston of the Pacific coast.
In Oregon, most of . the profits
from investments" jremain in the
state, adding to its capital. A
large percentage 01 the interest
and dividends arising from in
rvestments-.in Washington s:o to
non-residents, and no small pro
portion to Oregonians. -The
Ladds alone control about 20
Washington banks. The invest
ment company backed by Chas.
Ladd and Theodore Wilcox have
already about $800,00 loaned in
this state. " An agent of the com
pany told me that the company
finds the demand for loans much
greater here, than in Oregon, but
stock is sold faster in Oregon.
Seattle has apparently won de
cisively its fight with Tacoma
only to find a new rival in Ever
ett. As yet Seattle hardly ad
mits the rivalry, but any Everett
man will confess that his city is
destined to distance ' the present
metropolis of Washington. Ever
ett has now a population of about
20.000, with mills and factories
that are enlarging their capaci
ties, and . transportation facilities
which in some respects are be
yond those of Seattle. What
Everett will, become depends
chiefly upon Jim Hill.
