Just at we so to press we learn that .Smith carries Sherman county by 10 . votes, and Wasco gives him 12 majority with all in except - Baldwin . precinct, which is reported to give Smith 8 ma . jority, making Smith's majority in the two counties 25. ' ' The returns from every precinct in the county have been received ; . but those trom Mosier and Baldwin were , in the election box, sealed up, but n one took sufficient interest in the matter to. keep out a-sample ticket with the figures on it. ' For this reason the figures of these two precincts cannot be ascertained until the official canvass. '. ..- , ' , We have received a copy of Justice, published at Grass Valley.' Sherman county. We presume it is printed else ' where as we do not see a single local ad vertisement, or any matter relating to Sherman conntv. Beinff in favor of home production we do not wish it success, as . yto. would if it were a factor of develop ment of Grass Valiey and vicinity.

Eagle: Deputy Sheriff Mcltoberts, ac- '. corapanied by the posse ot men who went out lor the purpose ot capturing the Dana ranch last week, returned, all efforts to capture the redskins resulting fruitless. The Indians swam the river at Junction ; Bar, and pushed out for the Rock. Creek country. The boys being at that time . lorty miles behind, decided It to be use less to push on farther. plete except from Baldwin precipe?, in sorts the election of Blakeley, Demo- cratic candidate for county judge, Ward, sioner, with the balance of the ticket la favor of the Republicans by majorities Mninni i rnm Iftt.-iCtriri Tilalretao mil Ward, Democrats, received very heavy naa Deen given, toe returns irom . yvasco would be complete.

Hansen felling trees, was struck down and killed: Vanderhoff had been fully warned by Mr. Hansen, but reDlied "there was no danger." Even as . the tree fell, Hansen called to him to- get out of the way, but the man simply stood and watched its fall. It was only -when the fir tree struck a sapling a'der, sending ue aiaer nymg towara aim inat v uuuer hoff attempted to save himself, but too late.

Tbe Regulator made the nsnal excursion to the' Cascade Locks this morning, and quite a' Dumber of onr citizens availed themselves of the opportunity. The excitement consequent on the elec tion is dying out, It seems the. Democrats are not desirous of crowing yery loudly, and Republicans have nothing ot which to boast. ,, ' . ' . , !. : The next matter of interest is the elec tion of city officers which occurs a week from next Tuesday, and some excitement may be expected, as candidates are coming to tbe surface lively. ' - A minim; prospector passed through tbe city this afternoon, driviug a donkey packed with provisions and utensils. He was a great curiosity, being a novel sight to citizens of The Dalles. ; tea, Mr. Ad. Keller, waa severely scalded this mcroing by spilling a bowl of boiling milk over bis foot and ankle. : Dr. Holilster waa cauea, ana tne cnua is resuug casujr. Gen. J. B. Gordon, president of the United Confederate veterans, has appointed a committee of one from each of the Southern states to present a memorial be lore the , legislature of each state, asking them to vote a uie pension to me wiuuw 01 Jefferson Davis. . Baker Democrat: Snake river' is oveiflow iog its banks below tbe month of Couuor creek, necessitating the farmers along the stream to hurry np their first cnttiag of al falfa before their lands are completely cov ered with water. After the first cutticg an overflow will do but little damage. ' Tbe tournament in this city on the 4th of Jaly is a fixed fact. Committees have been appointed aod . tbe necessary funds sub scribed. A programme of exercises is be ing diafted, and this will be carried out fully. A large number of people may be expected in the city on that day, ' Seven carloads of cattle, 165 bead, were hipped from Saltmarsbe 4 Co'a stockyards yesterday evenmg to Trontdale. They were in first-class condition, and. will make as good beef as any ever placed in the Port land market. They were from our bnoch grass bills, and demonstrate the nutritious qualities of our native grasses. News was received in the city to-day from Crook county giving Mr. Bradsbaw, Democratic candidate for circuit judge 134 majority in Prineville, 6 in Hay Creek and 8 id Cross Keys. Tbis gives him 147 major ity, which is 14 more than necessary to overcome Mr. Watkins' majority in Wasco and Sherman. There are several precincts, the returns irom which have not been re ceived, and these will increase Mr. Brad shaw's majority. Dayton Inlander: Dr. Pietrzyoki was called to Pomeroy on Friday ot last week to consult with Dr. Gose in a case of what proved to be a fatal injury. James Meg ginson, an old citizen of considerable prop erty and a bachelor living on Alpowa ridge, waa returning from the mountains to his ' place with a load of wood and in some way jras thrown from the wagon. One arm was crushed and he was injured in tbe head He was picked np in an unconscious condi tion. The arm was amputated, but tbe man died Saturday morning. A Urge colony of a religious sect, known as the Kiver Brethren have located at f hoe- nix, Arizona Ter. They are from Pennsyl vania and have purchased a tract of land for fruit growing purposes. The settlement has been named Gleudtle, and will be con ducted according to the rigid religious and temperunce ideas. They will be joined in the fall by two hundred more families. Hillsboro Independent: Two - men named Toinkins and Johnson, were slashing tim ber on Joseph Hare s farm when a tree fill iog slipped backward from the stump and crushed Mr. Johnson held, killins him in stantly, and broke Mr.' Tomkiua' thigh. Mr. lomkins lives three miles east of Glen coe. lhe man who was kijled was a stranger, who had lately come to the neighborhood. ' - The latest news from Sherman county confirms tbe report of the defeat of Mr. R. J. Ginn, Republican candidate for county lodge and the election of Mr. .Leslie, Demo crat, for sheriff. Mr. V- C. Brock, Demo crat, for clerk, who was a candidate for re election was defeated. . Moro carried the county seat question by about 150 majority, Our neighbor, the Sun, came out with tbe conventional rooster yesterday, to illustrate the feelings of Democrats over the recent victory. But, they must remember, in the jangnage credited to Mara Antony. -rw&s no loeman's nana mat ienea us Twas our owarth&t dealt the blow. We acknowledge our defeat, bnt, with re gret, we point to traitors in our own ranks that knifed our candidates in tbe back. Albany Herald; .News was received in this city last evening of another serious train wreck on the Southern Pacific railroad in Southern Oregon. A freight tram, cou sisting of two engine and twenty-four cars. were ditched beyond Grant a fass by train wreckers,, who had piled np a lot of ties upon the track. The engines and cars were badly wrecked. No one was killed, Out the bridge superintendent had his leg broken by lumping trom the train, there is no clue as to who the fiends were who committed the dastardly deed. Localizer: A second earthquake has oc enrred at Chelan in the last month. The first wa experienced on the 1st inst., and lasted about a minute. The second was more severe, but did nut last so long, it is neirly twenty years since a heavy earthquake hap pened in the same region. There were two shocks at that time, . being about thirty seconds between them.- Uetween that time, twenty years ago. and this quite a number of quakes have been felt, but much lighter and with much less rumble. Baker City Enpuirer: Reports from dif ferent parts of the country concerning the cold weather of the last few days are that the fruit crop has been severely damaged. At Clark's creek the entire fruit crop had been ruined as well as vegetables.' At Ex press ice was frozen a quarter of an inch in thickness At Huntington the weather was very severe. Perhaps in Baker City the frost did the least damage of any place in Baker county. Here, although a few vegetables were frozen, no damage was done to the fruit. .' Among the eccentric bets made before the recent election waa one between Mr. C. J. Vanduyi. and Mr. Woi. Cantrell, of Tygh valley, as ' follows: If Judge Tbornbury was re-elected Vandnyn wonld dip Cantrell in Tygb creek five times, and, vice versa, if Mr. B.akeley was elected, then Cantrell would do the same by Vandnyn. They propose to carry ont the provisions of the bet, and have named June 18th as the date. It is proposed to give a picnic on that day, and to charge 23 cents admission to witness the performance. . The receipts will go to the common school fund of Wasco county. Father Andre, a distinguished French priest, while preaching against the too free indnlgence in flirtation among the lady members of his congregation, threatened to divulge tbe name of one present as being the most culpable in tbis respect; but feign ing to pity her dread of exposure by this meams, gave out that in charity be would only throw his skull cap in that .direction of tbe seat occupied by the lady for whom his special remarks were meant. As soon as the preacher raised his hat as though to throw it, every woman in the church is said to have ducked her head. ' ,'... East Oregonian: Charles Jones, the man who stole a horse and saddle from the stable of J. L. Gulliford, by whom he waa em ployed at Vinson, was seen and captured near Blue Mountain sawmill, Monday, by William Howard, and taken, to Alba. He was brought down and lodged in jail Tues day evening by JackTarpie. Jones, it will be remembered, was . followed! and chased into . tbe brash by "Jap" Gulliford, and compelled to abandon tbe horse. Jap took a shot at him to frighten bim into giving himself, up, but he escaped, and had been in hiding until- his capture. His" brother, Jobn Jones, who bad also been employed by Gulliford, and was mixed np in the horse-stealing conspiracy, is also in jail, being brought down Saturday. East Oregonian: Reports of a deplorable case of poisoning uoiue from the Dry Creek neighborhood Valley precinct, two little grandchildren of Samuel Johnson, a boy and girl, being the sufferers. Sunday night, their grandmother, Mrs. Johnson, had pre pared a dish of sweet corn with "rough on rata" for tbe purpose of killing squirrels, and unthinkingly placed it in on a corner sbelf ot the cupboard. Early next morn ing the children arose, and being hungry, went in search of something to eat. They found the corn, which the boy took out and placed on the table, and were engaged in eating it when Mrs. Johnson came in and discovered the horrifying result of her thoughtlessness. Drs. Blalock and Stone were summoned as quickly as possible, but arrived too late to save the li fe of the boy, whose condition at last accounts was con sidered fatal. The girl will probably re cover. Tbe boy is a 4-year-old son of Guy Fruit, and . the girl a daughter, hardly 2-years-old, of Henry Ramer. The Eugene Guard relates that Sheriff Nolaud, arrested on a warrant issue by tbe prosecuting attorney, one L F. Revier, at bis home, tour miles northwest of Eugene, on the river road, on the charge of polyga my He was taken before Justice Hender son and waived the privilege of a prelim inary examination, when he was bound over to appear before the grand jury in the. sum of $300. Not having bondsmen' he was lodged in the county jail. Revier, the gay lotliario, is a man of about 40 years of age, while the second wife is probably 50 years old. The lady is tbe prosecuting witness herself. She was married to bim in Novem ber, 1890, in Wisconsin, and was unaware of him having another wife, until a few days ago when 'wife No. 1, who resides in Minnesota, bad divorce papers served on -the gay deceiver. , Then naturally she made trouble, although he tried to coerce her with alt kinds of threats. When she mar ried tbe scoundrel she. was possessed of con siderable property, but be has squandered the most of it. - . : . ' From Friday's Daily. The river is rising slowly. The gentle zephyr bloweth. " Mr. R. Sigman, of Dufnr, is in the city. Rain has fallen in small quantities during the day.- . . Mr. Charles Durbin, of Antelope, is in the oity. . The streets are crowded with people from the' country. . ; i The official board are canvassing the re turns to-day. - Mr. W. Schraeder is lying very sick at his residence in tbe city. A large quantity of hay was brought from Mosier last evening on the Regulator. Little Tesaie Schraeder, who has been sick with lung fever, is so far improved that she is considered out ot danger. No. 1. killed aod injured' several horses this morning near Fultooville. Some were so badly hurt that they were killed by a passenger on the train. Mr. E. M. Shutt, the young man who is interested in the Antelope Herald, is in the city to-day. He intends to issue the first number of his paper about tbe 20th of the present month. The whale blows water while at play; Trees blow in every clime; The sweetest flowers blow in May, ; But wind blows all the time, There's lots of blowing in Tbe Dalles. There was a rumor on the streets yester day that the election in one or more of the precincts wonld be contested on account of irregularity; but we believe no action will be taken by either party in this regard. The Moon, Paso Robles, Calif., says: Mrs. J. H. Phirman, of Eastern Oregon, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cameron of Cies ton, and Miss Edith Stanley of Petalnma, returned home . last Tuesday after a few week's visit with friends and relatives at Creston. . In the Indian camp on the Grand Ronde river, aaya the Asotin, Wash., Sentinel, are seventeen marriageable Indian girls, some of whom want white men for husbands, and shun the idea of marrying one of their own race. Tbe father of one of these girls offers an inducement of 200 head of good horses to some young white man that will marry bis daughter. The old Indian states that not any hoodlum of a white fellow will do, but he must be a young man of good character and address, and abla to provide bis wife with a good home. East Oreaoman: The Indian mummies found by Dr. J. Vf. Morrow in a graveyard near Umatilla, which are remarkable cur iosities in their way, were received by him Wednesday night from Kansas City where they had been kept for some time at a medical college. They may be seen oy any one at the doctor a office. The canvassing Board in session to-day consists of County Clerk Crossen, Mr. D, E. Thomas, iustice of tbe peace for Dufur precint. and Mr. E. Schutz. justice of the peace East Dalles, with Mr. Ed. Martin and Mr. John Dexter keeping tally. So far as the canvass has proceeded tbe result does not differ from the figures published in tbe TIMES-MOONTAINEEB. The re-election ot Hon. W. H. Wilson prosecuting attorney for this district by over 500 majority should be considered in the light of a compliment to tnat gentleman and a vindication of his capacity in. tbe performance of the duties of tbe office during the past two years. He was elected the first time by a small majority; but this election has more than doubled the former figures. Goldendale Sentinel: Peter Staack ex hibited tbe finest piece of silver ore which he says he found on the Klickitat river that has ever been exhibited in this county. It is almost pure silver and is imbedded in slato. We do not ..understand tnat Mr. Staack discovered a ledge of that rich ore but the piece was picked up. It may have come from some distance up the stream but likely the ledge is very near where the specimen was found. A deputy sheriff from Whitman county arrived in Pendleton on luesoay evenings train from The Dalles with a man. who is wanted for forgery. The prisoner was allowed to enter the train closet daring the trip, and while there slipped off his hand cuffs and threw them away. The officer had to subdue him at tbe point of a revol ver afterward. He was kept in the Uina tilla connty jail Tuesday and taken to Whitman county tbe next morning. Mr. William Frazier, of the firm of God ard 8. Frazier of Portland, will be in tbe The Dalles 'Monday and Tuesday, June 13th and 14th, for tbe purpose of purchas ing oo horses, 25 bay, la sorrel, aod o grey. all well broke and gentle to go un der . saddle; from 15 to 16 hands high, and weight from 1000 to 1100 pounds. This will be a rare opportunity for our farmers and ' horse-breeders to dispose of their animals. d&wje41wk A tire alarm about 11 o'clock this morning called out the fire department of the city very quickly. The cause was found to be an incipient blaze under some of tbe out- buildings en the alley in tbe rear or tho corner of Second and Court streets. The wind was blowing quite lively at the time, and if the flame bad started there would undoubtedly have been a very disastrous conflagration. Albany Herald: Information was received from Yaquina last evening that the second child ot Mrs. Pruett, injured in the hand car accident on tbe Oregon Pacific Sunday, had died, making four deatLs resulting from tbe collision. Mr. Pruett, it is said, is crazed over the: shocking death of his entire family, and had attempted to take his own life. Mrs. Manning is also said to be in a critical condition from hemorrhage caused by injuries received. Dr. Huiih Logan returned after a month's absence in the east this morning. While away he visited the Missouri State Medical Association at Pertle Spring, the National Association of Railway Surgeons at Old Point Comfort, Va., and spent several days in New York City visiting the various hos pitals and attending the post-graduate clinics. The doctor reports having a very pleasant and profitable time, never missing an opportunity to note the advancement made in the profession of which be ia an earnest and enthusiastic disciple; but was glad to return to bis Old borne . in The Dalles, which, be says, is more attractive than any place he has visited. pure pood ur oohgbess. Action Which has Resulted, la the Official Determination of the Best Kakinx fowder. The act of congress authorizing the ex amination of the baking powders bas re sulted in a most unprecedented compliment to the Royal Biking Powder. The tests were made in tbe government laboratory at Washington, and the official report shows that tho Royal is superior to all others in leavening strength being over thirty per cent above the average. . The report also shows the parity of tbe Royal Powder and the wholesomeness of its ingredients. This is probably the highest compliment of an Official character ever paid to a pro prietary article, though no' more than the great army of baking powder consumers wonld expect in behalf of their old friend and favorite. . ' . ': The result of the official examination, as thus determined, will, of course, make the ''Royal" the standard for government pur chases. '' Gilliam County.

The only comfort tbe Democrats can extract from tbe statemect is that there is $4,000,000 less cash than there was a month ago. Bankruptcy does not yet stare Uncle Sam in tbe face. A Terrible Accident. Albany Democrat. Yesterday morning Wm. M. Hoag, of tbe Oregon Pacific, was taken to Yaquina Bav on a special train. E. W. Beeman bad charge of tbe train, with C. H, Laugbead in charge of the engine,' and Tad Ross as fireman. As tbe train rounded the curve at bridge 11 about 4 miles tbis side of Yaquina City the en gineer was horrified to see a band car load of people just In front, of tbe train, He reversed tbe engine and turned the sand box on to tbe rails; but it was too late.the engine struck tbe loaded car amid tbe screeches and cries ot the occupants, The car was carrying Mr. Pruett, the sec tion boss, h.s wife and several little chil dren, Mr. Manning, the blacksmith, wife and children, and Mr.. Jake Devme, eleven in all. Tbey were on an excur sion trio ud the road, and did not hear the nsnal whistle of tbe engine as it ap Droacbed. Mr. Pruett instantly put on the brakes. This act instantly threw Mrs. Pruett, who was sitting on tbe front of tbe car, directly off under the ap proaching train. The rest were raised from tbe track and thrown to one side, Mrs. Pruett's bead was cut off, also both legs, and her body was rolled in a ball under the engine, presenting a horrible spectacle. Mr. Pruett and Mr. Devine were practically uninjured; but it was feared tbe former might go insane from grief. A 5-year-old boy of Mr. Pruett bad one leg broken and a foot mashed, so badly as to require amputation, and may die. He is said to have stood the pains in a very heroic manner. A 2-year- old child had a terrible bole made in the head, and died to day. Mr. Manning had one leg oroken, ana nis wtte an arm broken, was injured internally, ud bad one side paralyzed. A little girt ot theirs was killed, making st least three fatalities, and probably lour by, tbe acci dent. Surgeons were sent for Drs, Rlcb. Davis and Smith responding and all done that was possible for tbe unfor tunate people. Tbe accident is the worst in the history of the road, as terrible as often occurs. No blame was attached to those in charge of tbe tram. It is strange tbat it was not known tbat a special was coming, lbe accident cast a atep gloom over tbe bay country. Baldwin Frecinct.

The latest 'returns from the state indi cate the election of the Republican ticket by about the usual majority. : In Multno mah county, some on the local Independ ent ticket were elected, but it gave about J 2000 majority on state and district offi cials. '-.''': The latest news from Sherman point to the success of the Republican ticket by majorities ranging from 85 to 125. The legislative ticket has about 80 majority. Gilliam county is slightly Republican ; but Bradshrw, Democratic candidate for circuit judge, has a majority from 30 to 35. By the most careful estimate, Watkins, Republican candidate for circuit judge, leaves Gilliam, Sherman and ' Wasco counties with 150majority, and no word is heard trom itook, wnicn must be re ceived by stage.

M Weather Buresui, of the .Department of Agriculture. Central Office Portland, Oregon. Crop- Weather Bulletin, iVo. id, for week ending Tuesday, June 7, 189: Reports throughout the state indicate that the cereal crop will not be up to that of last year neither in quantity or qual ity, though the general prospects for this year's crop are above the average; this is due to tbe poor condition of the soil when summer fallowed in 1891, to the cool, wet and backward spring. . . ' The fruit crop will be short in every portion of the state, due to the frosts and cold rains of April. . The hop crop bids fair to be an average 0, while the hop lice are making their appearance, indi cating ravages by them as bad as last year, unless checked. . The hay crop, grain, clover, timothy and alfalfa will be unusually large.due to the rains and tem perature since Marcn 1st. The lamb crop and wool clip are unusually large. while the latter is of excellent quality. KASTKEN OREGON. Weather Cooler temperature, with oc-.l casional showers or light sprinkles of rain and partly cloudy weather have pre vailed." Frosts were general south of the Columbia River valley on the 2d, doing some damage to potatoes, fruit, corn and cereals. Ice formed in 'many localities. Brisk, dry winds have prevailed. ,;;.' Crops The cool weather, has been very beneficial to wheat, allowing the fall -wheat to head more fully, and assisting the spring wheat to a better stand and helping both to recoup Irom the effects of the hot weather of May 22a and 24th. Some of the wheat has been blighted. though a good general rain would do much to counteract the injury done. ; In the Grand Itonde valley there appears to have been uo damage done and all pros pects are good. The wheat crop will be short in Umatilla county and westward to the Cascades, unless more rain falls with in two weeks. Royal Ann cherries are ripening at The Dalles. -The general fruit Interests are about an average, and -with favorable weather a fair crop will be secured. The cool weather has checked the melt ing of the snow in the mountains and all rivers have been falling, though slowly, for five days. a. S. JrAQUE, Observer U. S. Weather-Bnreau. TE0M MIHJJEAPOLIS.

More at 6 p. m. London Telegraph: A retired diplomatist the Viscount de Grouchy, has discovered among the papers of a notary in Paris several highly interesting documents relating to the affairs of tbe poet Racine. Among them are his certificate of marriage and the inventory of his property and of his library. If is hoped that a careful examination of these papers will set at rest a long-standing dispute as to which of two houses that-both claim the distinction was the scene of Racine's death. The 'doc uments completely refute the prevailing idea that Racine died poor, as among them is an acknowledgment of a debt, of 20,000 francs from a prince. Curiously enough, the inven tory of the library shows that at the time of his death Racine did not possess a single copy of any of his own works. TELEGRAPHIC) HEWS. Sherman County.
