Linkville Star: Of the thousands of
tons of eas'ern bam and bacon consumed
' everv year in OregoD, not a pound comes
to Klamath. Even it the Klamath farm
er didn t raise bis own pork, he would
rather get bis meat on the wing than
send bis money across the Rockies for it.
He is therefore sonnd on the gooae. A
good Republican majority for protection
may be expected from Klamath next
. year.

conveyed his remains to Honolula after
his deaJi m San Francisco, and the na
tives believe the spirit haunts the vessel,
arid claim to have seen the ghostly form
of the king stalking alone the bridge.
They believe some member of the royal
family will die after each visit of the
Charltston. As a consequence, the vessel
is not likely to receive an enthusiastic
ovation from the Hawaiians upon her
visits to the islands.
The Harney Items tells a tough yarn
about "the discovery of a geouine wild
man by Reuben Sitz, at Brierly spring,
near Harney lake. Sitz saw bim wallow

was some sort of a wild animal, but soon

knocking the wild man down with a club
and binding bim with a cord. On- re

Last evening at the stockyards of R E
galtinarslie & Co. there were six carloads

Dalies, as he will have something especially
to say to tbem.
The Timks-Mountai.veeb has the largest
number of readers of any paper published
m this or adjoining counties. It does not
make this as an idle boast, but is willing to
stake $30, gold coin, to be given to any be
neyolent society, as a result of the examina
tion by any three disinterested persons of
its subscription lists. Talk is cheap, but
money is more powerful.
Walla Walla Statesman: The petition to
the president in behalf of Col. COmpton has
already received nearly five hundred signa
tures and four times as many can be easily
obtained. Ihe business men of the city,
almost without exception, have signed it
and the farmers are equally eager to be
placed upon record as considering the sen
tence unjust to a brave soldier and a gentle
man.
The case of Allen vs. Sargent is on trial

Uorcoran, Martin Wing, U. IT. Angel, W
S. Graham, W. J. Roberts.-James Brown,
Kenneth McKenzie, A. R. Russell, Samuel
A. Broyies. C. L. Harnett and L. Burgess.
An editor works 3531 days per year to
get out 52 issues of a paper; that a labor.
Udcb in a while somebody pays bim a year s
subscription; that s capital. And once in
a while some sun-of-a-gnn of a dead beat
takes the paper a year or two and vanishes
without payiug for it; that's anarchy. But
later on justice will overtake the last-named
individual, for there is a place where be
will get bis desorta; that 8 hell.
Portland appears to be a pleasant little
place for a small tea-party. Portland's cor
oner reports that for the year ending July
7.1891: There were 23 cases of drowning.
20 suicides, 21 deaths caused hy accident, 6
murders, 1 homicide, 1 justifiable murder.
2 deaths by exposure, 1 death from alcohol
ism, and 1 1 cases where death was caused
by natural causes, but suspicious circum
stances warranted an Inquest.
The sere, the yellow leaf has fallen, and
all indications point to the approach of
winter, and our citizens are preparing for
the inclement season. If it come with deep
snow and cold weather, it will be good for
the farmer and pioducer; and if it woos
this region with mild and gentle breeze, the
soil and producers will suffer. Let us hope
that there will be a heavy fall of snow, for
in this is the only salvation for wheat-growers.
They have an effective way of settling
the question of employing couvict labor on
the outside in lennessee. .Last week

Three or four years since a number of Mor
mon preachers were killed in Tennessee;
and last year a Seyenth Day Adventist was

Andy Johnson's state, anyway?
Cathlamet Gazette: One of the most das
tardly robberies that baa come to light re
cently is the robbing of the body ot the
Russian Finn named Jbana Labteben at
Stella. When the deceased left Stella he
bad between $25 and $35 in his possession.
After the body was recovered and tied up
to the dock, awaiting the advent of the
coroner from Cowlitz, county, some design
ing thieves robbed the body and cut it
adrift. The rope showed plainly that it
bad been cut and the body turned loo-e.
An effort should be made to reach these
body robbers.
Governor Routt ot Colorado has received
information from Routt country that the
Utts have left the reservation and are roam
ing through Lily Park and along tbe Wnite
and Yampa rivers, committing depredations
and wantonly slaughtering game. l is es
timated that during the past month they
have killed 3QQQ deer, mostly does and
fawns. Tbe hides alone are taken, the
meat being left to rot. If something is not
promptly done to drive the marauders back
the settlers promise to take the matter into
their own hands.
In the circuit court in session a.t Pendle
ton last Monday, Judge Jas. A. Fee presid
ing, John Austin, the Grant county stock
man, received a sentence of three years to
the penitentiary for cattle stealing. The
remaining six indictments against him were
dismissed, his plea of guilty being entered
with this understanding. Austin was
raised from boyhood in (jruut county and
was a prominent citizen and heretofore well
respected. At the last Republican conven
tion of that county he received the nomina
tion for sheriff and was defend hy O, P.
Cresap, IJemoprat.
Ochoco Review: The expenses incurred by
Baker county for the six mouths ending
September 30th, as shown by tbe semi
annual report of the county" clerk, were
435,922.60. The expenses incurred by
Crook county for the same period of tme,
as shown by the report of the county clerk,
published in this paper October J8, h, were
$3149 8,3, less than Qnefourth as great as
the expenses of Baker Coupty. Baker has
not four times as much populations this
county, and the expenses should not be four
times as great. Tnere must be some mis
management np there,

Salem Statesman: Tbe first young evil
doer amenable to the new law has been
committed to the Oregon state reform school
near this oity. He is from Portland and
his name is Lewis Heiss. He is 14 years of
age, and was committed from Portland by
Judge Stearns, at the request of his father,
Lewis Weiss, Sr. The wayward lad seemed
anxious for the reformatory, this state in
stitution was opened to the reception of
students on the 5tb inst., and it will no
doubt not be many weeks nntil there are
several dozen lads in its care. Boys be
tween the ages of 8 and 16 years are ad

A special from Tacoma conveys the in
formation that World's Fair Commissioner
Drnm, of that city, says Washington and
California are the only states that insist up
on separate buildings at Chicago, and inas
much as the managers of the fair oppose
separate exhibits, he would not be surprised
it such exhibits would finally be ruled out.
He. is in receipt of a circular stating that
no state will be allowed to make a separate
state exhibit of any manufactured article.
The executive commissioner upon making
inquiry by telegraph regarding a separate
exhibit, was referred to this circular letter.
Mr. Drum inclines to the opinion that each
state will be allowed neadouarters, to be
built of materials from each respective
state, and that they will then be forced to
make the special displays in the various de
partments assigned for such exhibits. This
would necessitate a change in tne proposed
Washington state building.
The course of trne love neyer did run
smoothly, and the following will illustrate
the truthfulness of this aphorism: Charles
Minkler, a freight conductor on the South
ern facirjc. and Miss Liuita iriteser, oi
Roseburg. were married at the bride s home
on Wednesday night. When the officiating
clergyman came to the point in the cere
mony where he asks if any one has any ob
jections why the ceremony should cot pro-
eel d, a young man named Morns, an in
vited guest and Tespected young Roseburg
dry goods clerk, arose and said he had seri
ous olj ctions, and said he must see the
bride priyatelv. lie was ordered out ot tne
house, and it took four men to take him
out. When searched a pistol was found on
his person. Afterwards young Morris said
he always bad loved tbe girl, and had in
tended to marry her, but had neyer had the
courage to speak to her about if . It is sup
posed be intended to kill the girl.
one corporation. Mr. Hunt does not seem
to be discouraged, and said there was plenty
to do in the future, and upon being ques
tioned said he did not propose to lose his
grade in this valley. And that there would
probably be some very important develop
ments made public in tbe near future. It
is unite nrobable that Mr. Hunt's career as
a railroad man is not yet at an end. We
hope not. He will return here again in a
short time.
From the Salem Statesman we learn that
the Amity hills are being prospected for
iron and that good ore has been found.
The prospecting is being done over a strip a
couple of miles in length, and on an average
of 500 feet wide. It seems to be a mount
ain of solid iron ore, which assays from 50
to 53 per cent pure iron, which is twice as
ricu as the Oswego ore. Samples of tbe ore
have been assayed and they stand the test.
This week the iron mine is being prospected
by the Oswego company and there is no
reason to doubt but the mine will be worked
next spring, the ore being shipped from
W heatland to Oswego by boats.

The Midnight Anasmain Attempts His
Cowardly Purpose.
Goldendale Sentinel.
Aooot d:pu o clock, Wednesday morning,
miserable 6eud in human shape made an
attempt at brigandism which brings a blush
of shame to the cheeks of the good people
of Goldendale; the though that we have in
the community a man mean enough to com
mit such act; of meanness is to be deplored.
About the hour named Mr. and Mrs. W
Dunbar were awakened by the report of
firearms and the whistling of deadly bullets
into their sleeping apartments. There were
seven shots fired into the building. Th
aim of the person doing the shooting must
have been taken deliberately, and the trail
of the bullets indicate that the person who
did the firing was aiming to send them into
the sleeping apartment, as the firing was
from different angles but in much the same
line. One bullet cut its way through tbe
window and buried itself in the parlor wall,
another crushed a hole in the pipe of the
parlor stove at tbe heig bth of abont four or
five feet, while another went through into
the bed room, but its force was fully spent
by having penetrated through the partition
between the parlor and bedroom and struck
the wall at the head of the bed and was
picked up in the morning.

Tbe plea of drunkenness should not have

viction, or even the suspicions that are rife
as to the guilty party.
W batever may have been the motive of
the miserable miscreant malice or whisky.
or both Judge Dunbar and bis wife are to
be congratulated on their narrow escape.
and tbe community on being spared the hu
miliation of a greater crime having been
perpetrated in our midst.

W. W. Union-Journal.
Dispatches of November 9th from Sprague
announced the death by shooting ot a
young man named Warmick, and the fact
that a man named Revinangh, with whom
the dead man liyed, was suspected of hav
ing assisted in his taking off. Revinangh
explained that young Warmick went to the
cellar to get a pan of apples, Revinangh
was in the cellar at the time, and when be
heard the young man coming thought that
be would frighten him by growling like
bear, and accordingly began to growl.
Young Warmick, being scared, pulled his
revolver, a 45 Colt's; it was discharged, the
bullet entering the body just under the left
arm, coming out almost directly under the
right arm.
un JNoyember juth a coroner s inquest
ss held, which resulted in a verdict of
death from a gucshot wound administered
accidentally by his own hand.
The verdict is said to be the result of the
testimony of Revinaugb, who swore that
he grabbed young Warwick's arm just as
he was about to shoot, forcicg his right
hand backward and in such a position that
the discharge of the revolver would send
the bullet from the top of the right shoulder
blade through both lungs.
Revinangh, or "Grizzley," as he was usu
ally called, is a former well kuowu resident
of Walla Walla, where he ran a blacksmith
shop for many years. He is the stepfather
of the divorced wife of Chrfe Whitney,
of this place. It is sat considered hkelv
that the explanation will prove entirely sat
isfactory to, the people of Spragne,
So Place for Lilly Young.
As well as tbe state of Oregon is sup
plied with penal, reformatory and charit
able institutions it is a singular fact that
there is no place to put a young girl 14 or
15 years of age who has strayed from the
paths of virtue and fallen into the ways
of the wicked. Sheriff Harry Smith, of
Astoria, was in Portland on Friday for
the purpose of finding some place where
he can put Lilian Young, the Albany girl
who eloped with a negro named George
aimtb and was found living with him in
Astoria, says the Oregonian. It is the de
sire ot the gill's parents that she be taken
away from her seducer and put in a place
where she will haye an opportunity to re
consider the rash step she as taken and
think of a better life than that cf living
with a negro She is only 15 years of age,
and is not supposed to be old enough to
know what is best for her own good. It
was for the purpose of finding some in
stitution that offers the opportunities of a
reformatory that Sheriff Smith came to
Portland. That he did not find such an
nstitution is a sad commentary on the
state's lack of facilities for caring for
classes of unfortunates. Sheriff Smith
found tbe doors of the Boys aud Girls'
Aid Society closed to the girl. He also
found closed doors at tbe Woman's Home,
the Refuge, the Babies' Home and the
Magdalen Home. The state reform school
would take the girl, but it is not yet
ready to take children. For some of the
institutions enumerated the unfortunate
girl was too young; for oihers, too old
Sheriff Smith will have to keep her in
Astoria or send her home to her parents.
The Columbian Exposition.
That the important subject of Oregon's
relations to the World's Columbian Ex
position may be brought before the citi
zens of Wasco county as speedily as pos
sible and most intelligently discussed, a
meeting for this purpose will be held at
the court house on Friday eveniDg next
at 8 o'clock sharp. Maj. G. W. Ingalls,
who is now in our city as the representa
tive of Oregon's State Board ot Com
merce, has been requested by a number
of our prominent citizens to address this
meeting, which he has consented to do.
Short addresses are promised by several
of our leading citizens, and no doubt
there will be a large attendance. There
is not a property-owner nor resident of
our county but what is deeply concerned
iu (he effort now being made to have Ore
gon especially represented at the World's
Fair. We urge all our citizens to extend
the notice ot this meeting. Word is re
ceived from Gen. Davis, director general
at Chicago, that the space alloted to Ore
gon will be given to others, unjess he is
soon assured that it is to be filled by Ore
gon. The business men of Port aud,
through its Chamber of Commerce, have
retired its old committee and chosen a
new one of its best business men who
have gone to work in good earnest; and
Portland can be depended upon, we fed
assured, to do her part in this matter.

of tbe O. & W. T. waa in the city last week
and tbe Republican ackuowledxea a pleasant
call from that genial gentleman. Mr. Hunt

have sold bis road and made at least $2,
000,000 clear of all ludebtedneas bnt to have

The engagement is announced, on the
authority of Senator Mitchell, of Miss Mat
tie E Mitchell to Duke Francois de la
Rochefoucauld of France, and the wedding

belles in Washington society for several
years past. Her fiance, FrancoiB, is a mem
ber of tbe famous Rochefoucauld family,
which dates back to 1026, and which has

century, were also members of this family.
Mrs. Mitchell and the bride-elect are at
present in Paris, at the Hotel Hollande,
where the engagement ia also being an
nounced. It will be remembered that there
was a very strong rumor to the same effect
last year, which met with sweeping denials
by the members oi tne Mitchell family.

East Oregonian: Nels Crow met acci
dental death Monday morning at Fulton
station north of Pendleton. , Mr. Crow
was employed lor Hamilton & Rourke in
receiving grain at Fulton. About 10
o'clock a man droye up with a load of
wheat and could not see him in the vicin
ity of the station. Later he discovered
the young man's body lying under a car
wheel which had partly rolled across it
near tbe middle. No one witnessed the
accident, and it is not known how it' oc
curred. The supposition is that Nels was
running cars down the grade at Fulton,
and while setting the brase with a crow
bar the brake broke, throwing him be
tween the care, underneath tbe wheels.
The brake on tbe car -was found to be
broken, ana a crowbar was lying near.
His friends here were soon notified of hie
sad death, and B. B. Bishop, acting coro
ner, accompanied by Dr. Smith and Geo.
Hamilton, left for the scene of the acci
dent to hold an inquest over the remains.
An examination showed that his neck
was broken by tbe fall. The deceased
was a young man about 28 years old, of
excellent habits and character. He pos
sessed sterling 'qualities that endeared
him to his associates, and leaves numer
ous friends in Pendleton and vicinity to
deplore his death. He was in the flower
of manhood, strong-, yigorous and hearty.
and a life of industry and usefulness was
cut shaft by ibis inscrutable decree f
pjoyideocei but death comes in innum
erable forms may always be expected
aud too. olten strikes those who can least
be spared.
