Journal.
The Pretty Lady Clerks. Some of
the most beautiful and pleasant features of the
last session of the legislature were those of the
- adyerks. They added vivacity to lhe ses
lsion, and ornamented the corridors and com
miltee rooms some of them were things of
beauty and joys foreyer, or words to that ef
fect. They came high but the solons had to
have them, or at least thought so. But some
of the mo-.t charming of them raised the very
old Hairy with a number of bills. The en
rolled bills, which will become laws, are
many of them, full of glaring clerical errors,
that will cause no end of annoyance. For
instance, the legislature amended the law in
regard to health officer, in order to locate a
qew on at Yaquiua bay, and attempted to
leave the old one at Coos bay; but the lady
clerk who enrolled the bill knew better, she
did, s she put it Coast bay. The lady clerks
so far as their ability to earn their pay from
the state was concerned, were for the most
part deacf failures. It will pay all future ses
sions of the legislature to hire competent clerks
and pay them good wages. It can be done at
about one thud the expense incurred for clerk
hire by the late session. Statesman.

buildings; $5,000 for the pay of additional
professors; and there is appropriated under
existing law $2500 annually. Then the
Hatch Act brings $15,000 and the interest on
the college fund is about $10,000. This is a
grand endowment and ought to make the
grandest college in Orogon. It is a great
thing for Corvallis and Benton county,

Fipmthe Millwood Times.

Mr. Ggo. Shambrook is preparing to build ;
a large barn at Umpqua Ferry this spring.
Mr. S. is probably the largest farmer in the
county and I will venture to say that there is
not a farmer in Southern Oregon that can boast
of as many miles of good fence as can be seen
on Mr. Shambrook's farm. .
We were greatly in hopes that the legislature
would give us a good game law and authorize
the different counties to give a bountv on deer
scalps, but they failed, now what are the poor
settlers to do? Our local hunters succeed in
killing from twenty to thirty per week, but
still the deer come. If something is not done
to protect the frontiersman he will have to
move on or starve as he cannot live on venison
alone. "
Mr. Cyrus Smith, of Green's station, paid
Millwood a friendly visit last week. , Mr. S.
is a genial talker but he does not like the way
the county board builds bridges and lets con
tracts for keeping the county poor. Mr, S.
thinks Judge Fitzhugh only made about $5000
out of those contracts. Now if the people do
not stop cutting the Judge down on this con
tract business, it wont be six months before it
will be reported that he gave Messrs Booth
and Burrell $1000 out of his own funds to get
them to keep the poor and build the Winches
ter bridge. Such things should be stopped at
once as it is well known that our County
Judge is a poor man and a few more contracts
will ruin him financially.
XX.
Important Decision.
Aa important ruling has been made by the
commissioners of state school !ands the Gov
ernor, Secretary and Treasurer of State. E.
A. Swope, of Portland, and Frank B. Poor,
wnose nome is saia 10 oe in taiuornia, were
after the same piece of land in the Warner lake
country, Lake county. Swope filed his appl
cation first and swore to it before Napoleon
Davis, clerk of the board of commissioners.
Mr. Toor came in afterwards and contended
that Swope's application was irregular, be
cause the law did not authorize the clerk to
administer oaths in such cases. The board
has had the case under advisement several
weeks and recently decided that the clerk had
such authority and that Mr. Swope's applica
tion was regular. I The piece of land in ques
tion gives entrance to an immense tract of
grazing lands which some cattle kings of that
country thought- they had completely sur
rounded. By the way, all the mars of Ore
gon extant are incorrect in their showing of
Grant and Lake counties. According to the
code of Oregon takes in a strip about 30 miles
wide by 50 miles long that is outlined on the
map as in Grant, and it is in this strip the
Warner lake country is located. Benton Lea

A. COMPLAINT.
- Wherefore oM Review do you seek occa
sion to trouble the souls of those o( your
readers who live afar, witli your meteorologic-
I al reports and your weather items? Is it not
j enough that wc know our present state of
suffering without being continually reminded
of what it might have been, by having such
items as these put before our eyes i twice a
week? Lowest temper, ture 22 , highest tern
pcrature 580, number of clear days 7, number of
fair days 17. Farmers all busy, seeding going
on, everybody making early garden, flowers
blooming and birds singing, etc, etc. This is
nothing less than downright . cruelty, and
shows an amount of depravity surpassing your
defense of the poor farm contract. (See files
of the Herald.) It is also needless, as most
of your home subscribers probably know what
the weather is without being bld, and those
who do not cannot be supposed to have
much interest in it. Also we would remind
you that there is a hereafter, and in that day
we, the neighbors of zero and the j blizzard,
will remember with compassion those who
have laid up no treasures of coolness against
the burning heat of dog days, when the mer
cury goes up to 950 and sighs because the
tube is so short . We have packed away
solid comfort by the hundred thousand tons,
yea in millions of tons, and in summer -when
the leaves wilt, and the birds lay aside their
feathers, when the cyclone faints for lack of
breath, and our footsteps are traced in spashes
of sweat then will we revel in draughtsof ice
water and make glad the hearts of our matrons
and maidens with bounteous plates of ice
cream, iced strawberries and cream, iced
watermelon, yea! even bananas' on ice.
What then will be the state ajid condition of
the creature that boasteth himself of his mild
climate? Nevertheless this present distress is
hard to bear and our hearts turn to the far
west with longing, yea in the visions of the
night we see the green banks of the Umpqua,
the sheltered nooks of the Calapooia, and the
sunny vales of Myrtle Creek, and : our ears'
hear the shouting of the waters and the rush
ing of the winds through the fir trees, and our
hearts are sad and weary "for this place is not
our rest." The winter which up to Feb. 10th
was so mild and pleasant that we were
threatened with the prospect of empty ice
houses in many parts of the east, has asserted
itself at last, and zero weather' with' howling
northwesterly gales are our daily companions.
It is much harder to bear such weather now
at the end of a mild winter than if it had
come upon us in due season. The cold comos
too late to help the dealers in woolen goods
and overshoes, as people will not buy so near
spring and it will not do much for coal and
wood dealers unless it lasts all through Marc h
which may Heaven forbid. B. L. IIewf.

Yesterday 's Statesman. 1
Senator Slator III. Woodson
T.
Slater, assistant treasurer of slate, leceiyed a
dispatch yesterday morning from LaGrande,
urging his immediate presence at the bedside
ol his father, ex-Senator and Railroad Com
missioner Jas. II. Slater, who is seriously ill
at his home in that city. Woodson took the
the first train in answer to the message.
Those best acquainted with Mr. Slater and
who met him intimately while in the city dur
ing the session of the - legislature, say that he
has not been feeling well for some time, and
that the worry and annoyance incident to
what he considered unjust and uncalled fori
treatment at the hands of Governor Tennoyer,
had much to do with bringing kim down phys
ically. . The old gentleman felt his removal
from the commission keenly and took it to
heart as a personal reflection which he did not j
deserve from the governor, and it grieved bim
very much. His illness is dnngerous and

An Early Start. Ii is a rare thing in 45
degrees north latitude fo see peach and pear
trees bepinninf to bloom at the berinninrr of
March, but such is the case in the Wilhamette

frost should come along and kill the buds; but

upon hearing this fear expressed yesterday, a
practical Salem man made the truthful remark
that the valley could affoid to have half its
fruit killed and then have the best crop in the
world in fact more of a crop than the aver
age fruit grower here takes pains or labor
enough to save decently. j
A Rare Relic. Col. Kelsay showed us
the other day a continental bill tf the United
States of the denomination of one dollar, says
the Benton Leader. It has the imprint of the
printers who printed .it. It was issued in
1779. It has on it the motto m Latin, "aut
mors aut decora vita, which means "either
death or an honorable life. The colonel
thought he had lost the bill,' as It had been
mislaid among some papers. It is worth more
than the dollar which it calls for. One al
most wishes it could talk.

Acquited. John D. Wilcox, late propn
etor of the Portland News, who has been on
trial for attempting to extort money from Mrs.
Dr. Murray, was acquited Friday night after
less than an hour's deliberation by the jury,
The case created a great deal of interest and
comment in Portland and throughout the
state at the time of the exposure, but it seems
there was not as much to it as at first sup

Improvements in Roseburg.
Roseburg's proposed woolen mill is rapidly
assuming tangible proportions. The mill
race has been completed and the mill erected.
All that is necessary now is to place the ma
chinery in position, three car loads of which
have already arrived. By the time the spring
clip of wool is ready for the market, the mill
is in good running condition and this impor
tant industry will begin operations, the bene
ficial effects of which will . be felt throughout
the entire Umpqua Valley. Other improve
ments in the city are progressing with equally
satisfactory speed. Arrangements are leing
made for the erection of several brick tiusi
ness blocks and for the construction of a much
needed system of water works. Recently the
Baptist society completed the largest and fin
est church edifice in Southern Oregon. One
of the evidences of growth is the fact that The
Review has changed from a weekly ,to a
semi-weekly paper, with promise of becoming
a daUy aa soon as the conditions become more
favorable. An upward tendancy in all classes
of real estate is observable, and is the neces
sary consequence of the growth and prosperity
of the town. West Shore.
