New York, March 3 A Herald cable from Valparaiso saja that the federals have 1000 armed men outside the city of San Uneigo. They propose to make a daab into the city. Tbere has been fighting outside of Santa Ana, which has been favorable to the federal trooops. In the besieging aimy there were 8000 armed men. while the defenders ot the city numbered but 1000. Mure defec tious from the government troops have been reported. The 60 tavalrymen stationed at Artigas went over to the federals in a body. Troops that were Sent id Dorsui' of General lavarez have returned to Bage. It is reported that the federals in Santa Ana are short of arms and are setting fire to the property ot the Jstilh:s'a8 .News has aleO been received confirming tbed epatch announc ing the lul of an ednto. 1 he ted erals, under General Tavxrez, took the city. In the eugngenienl 300 ot the gov em mint troops were killed. Recruits are being burned from all parrs of the province to both armies. Atrocious cruelties are reported on the part ot Gen eral 1-idoro, one of the government urn cers, who killed women and children as sort of pastime. A correspondent in BaeDOS Avres reports that President Fena refuses to interfere in the Catamaxa case and declares the governor of the province will be sus tained. A caucus of deputies was held before the opening of the congress, at which it was resolved to oppose the gov ernment. It is thought that the defeat of the present administration is inevitable. A revolution bas again broken out in Corneotes. Tnis time the leader of the opposition is not known, but it is Karned that tbey have obtained arnisaud artillery pieces. The federal government bas ordered a further inquiry Into the state of the province The government bas been offered an armored tuiret vessel with enact guns for coast defense The German warship Marie bas sailed for Valparaiso. Commerce in the city of Valparaiso is paraljzed owing to the very low rate of exchange. A meeting of merchants bus been beld to conudt-r the situation. Their careful inquiries fail to elicit the cause of the fall, but it is attributed to speculation. A Father's Kearrh fur His Child. Umatilla, Or.. March 3 I. E. Miller, of Snmmervilie, Union connty, passed through here last night on bis way to North Yakima, where, be bears, a child answering tbe description ot bis lost cbild bas been seen among tbe Iadians The story ot tbe disapDeiracce of the Miller child and the father's subsequent search through tbe northwest after n band of Gypsies wno were supposed to have stolen it. has been fully related. Nearly six months have roiled by since tbe child disappeared and many theories bave been advanced as to what bas be" come of it. Rumor bss been widely cir culated to tbe effect that tbe child was an idiot and its disappearance was not as nocb of a mystery to tbe relatives as to tbe pub ic. Shortly after the chi d dis appeared, Mr. MiHer's bouse was de stroyed by fire. ' Rumr says that cries were beard issuing from tbe burning house. ' Mr. Miller says the malicious story is a tremenduons falsehood, and was started by a neighbor of bis who beid a grudge against him The child, be states, is not ac idiot, but is an ex. tremely bright cbild. . As for tbe fire, be says it started on the roof from an over heated earthen chimney, and could not have been the result ot incendiarism. He seems deeply moved by the foul ro mors, and says be will disprove them by finding the cbild, if it can be loutd in tbe cuun'rv He followed tbe Gvpsies .ll over Washington and Idaho, but fi nally lost iracK of tbem at Walla Walla, where tbey boarded a train. Through correspondence with authorities, he bas at last located tbem in Utah -If be fail to find the child around Yakima, be will go at once to Utah." - ' Smothered by Smoke. New York, March 3 Mrs. Bernstein and Mrs. Rosen occupy apartments on tbe top flixir of tbe tenement, 194 Henry street. Tbey both went out this morn ing, locking tbelr children in. Tbe for - mer bad four offsprings, ranging in age from 11 to 6". Tbe latter bad one daugh ter, aged 7, " After their departure a ker oseoe stove in the apartments ot Mrs. Member', on the lower flooi, exploded, setting fire to Mrs Memlert s clothes. She mansged- to extinguish tbe names, and with ber two childien made ber es cape. 1 here were twelve families in tbe tenement and all rushed for the fire es capes. - Tbe Ore swept out Into the nail- way and np tbe stairway like a flash, and tbe upper story was soon a mass of flames. The fire department soon bad the flames under control, however, and were congratulating themselves on the escape of all tbe inmates and tbe light fire los when tbe wild shriek of a woman came from tbe throng in tbe street. It was Mrs. Bernstein, wbo knew nothing of ber children's peril till, turning tbe comer. fie saw the crowd and the evidences of fire. With the utmost difficulty she was restrained trom rushing mto tbe building. As soon as possib e tbe firemen made tbeir wav to tbe top story and found the five litt'e ones suffocated in their beds. Tbe fire bud do' reached tbem. but tbe smoke bad entered and asphyxiated them in tbeir sleep.

London, March 3 In the bouse of lords today tbe Marquis of Londonderry commented upon tbe recent statement of Justice O'Brien, made at the opening of tbe Mnuster - assizes, to tbe effect' that lawlessness in County Clare bad grown to eucb an ex'ent tbat 'life and property were both insecure, and asked tbe gov- crnment bow it intended to check this lawlessness. The Earl of Kimberley, lord president of the privy council, ad mitted that the condition of affairs in County Clare, so far as obedience to the law was concerned, was bad. It this condition continued, be added, the gov ernment, would consider making a change of venue in the trials of persons accused of outrages in the county. Lord Herscbel, lord chancellor, in speaking on tbo same suMect, said that measures would be taken to repress crime, but that in the meantime it would be unw se for the government to disclose what it meant to do to bring an end to lawless ness. Gladstone on tne Labor question London, March 8 Gladstone received today a large deputation, representing workers in tbe coal mines, who aked tha government to support tbe enactment of a law establishing an tight boor day for employes in mines. Gladstone replied that eight hours could be legally fixed as the limit if the mil ers were morally an animons in tsvnr of sucb change, but practical difficulties existed m the defi nitionrf such legislation. He suggested local option as a possible way ot meeting tbe difficulties, and expressed the hope !bt tbe Question w nld be debated at this session of parliament. Sfarrhing; far the Victims.

Thirteen others are missing, and it is feared - are lost. The Rtate Ordnance. Salem, March 4 Democrats of Salem met tbe 12 pound state canoon today and it was theirs. News of Governor Pen noyer's order restraining the- triumphant Democrats from using the old bronze cannon ot the Oregon National Guard was in every one's mouth early this morn ing, and long before noon a large crowd of excited Democrats of tbe Cleveland faiib surged and jostled each other in front of tbe old frame armory, in which three men of tbe militia bad tbe big gun dismounted and under guar 4 Last night Captain Suermin, of B company, carried out the orders of the- governor, taansmitted through Colonel Lovell, by taking possession of the gun, which tbe Democrats bad appropriated and were reparing ready for use today, in welcoming tbe new admin'stration All efforts oo the part ot the Cleveland Dem ocrats to secure thecaunon were fruitless.' Talk of wresting the gun from the mil ilia kept every body on tip toe of excite ment, wbile guards with fixed bayonets anxiously paced up and down in front of tbe wrecked gun Early in the afternoon the city marshal, armed with, papers in a suit of replevin, walked in and captuied the cannon, tbe suit having been brought to recover tbe gun on a $ 10 claim of .the blacksmith for repairs. Tbe triumphant Democracy gave tbe blacksmith an in demnifying bond for tbe return of tbe ancient ordnance. Tbe slayer of men was tben paraded up and down, accom panied by a band and about 10,000 peo pie Tbey proceeded to the state bouse, and wiibin hearing of tbe governor's voice, bad be been in tbe executive mansion, fired the tnocb-Vanted salute to Grover. At this point in tbe proceedings Colonel T B. Wait, officer of tbe day, sent tbe following telegram to tbe gov ernor: "We bave your gun and are fir ing it on your political giave in Wilson avenue." Twenty-two charges were rammed home and volleyed and - thundered. Meanwhile tbe militia were striving to get out papers. Captain Sherman pre pared a bund of indemnity, wbicb ; was calculated to return to bis custody and keeping tbe gun wbicb went astray. But before-tbe process of law could be ac complished tbe Democrats bad rejoiced to tbeir fill, and by tbe time tbe papers were ready for service the canoon was renting peacefully at tbe rear of tbe ar mory. And so tbe war ended. The taVesIoa Ended. Washington, March 4. It was broad daylight when tbe last two conference re ports on tbe sundry civil and Indian ap propriation bills were presented. They were antagonized by Hill in favor of the Hudson river bridge bill, and tbere were several passages between him and tbe senators wbo objected lu filibustering un der the circumstances, but tbey were finally adopted, and at 6:80 the senate took a recess until 9:30. Oo reassem bling, resolutions of thanks to Vice-Pres iaent Morton and president protem Man derson, were passed, and a committee appointed to wait on the president and inform bim tbat tbe congress was ready to adjourn. Wb.ie waiting for tbe committee to re port, tbe senate bill granting ngbt of way through tbe Indian territory to the Inter-oceanic railroad was passed. Vice-President Morton, io cl. sing the senate at 1 o'clock, delivered an appreci ative address, thanking the members for the consideration shown him. Railroad ilea rite. - Mabshfield, Or., March 4 Tbe first jog between tbe Coos Bay & Roseburg Railroad Company an J its employes oc curred yesterday, when the entire gang of men struck and refused to work. The difficulty arose when Mannger Graham r quested the men to carry lunches in order that a' return ot 20 miles for tbe noonday meal would not be necessary Tbe men refused to acede to his demand. ana inereupon tne complete torce were given tbeir time. Tbe men all came town jesterdav, and while tbere is con siderable talk on tbe street, do serious trouble is liable to happen. The men were satssfied with the wages, but could not stand tbe lunch business. another hissing boy. The whole neighborhood on Wilancb flougb, a tributary to Coos bay, has been out searching fcr five days for 8-year- oid child ot Andrew Hanson, who mys teriously disappeared, but has not suc ceeded in finding any trace of tbe lad. Tbe boy was last seen on tbe bank of the slough with bis older brother, an I since the search bas been instituted that stream, which is very shallow, has been searched Irom one end to tbe other. As tbe body. it it bad fallen in the slougb, could not have passed out into the bay, it is feared that a panther has captured it. The Henate Democratic. Washington, March 4. inere is no question about Ibe United States senate being Democratic. The Republicans have recogniz'd that fact and today turned over the entire government to the Democrats, with something like a feeling ot relief. Tney will be glad to allow Cleveland and bis greatly divided party to run tbe government for the next two years at least, if not for four, when tbey feel sure tbe country will determine that a return to Republican rule will be very acceptable. Inere was an impression that some of tbe Republican senators might object to the swearing in of enongb new senators to pievent tbe Dein ocrats from organizing tbe senate. This was predicted by some of tbe senatorial Democrats who arc looking for an oppo- tunity to create capital, but it appears that no such intention existed. Tbe Re publicans are satisfied now that the Democrats have legitimate control of tbe senate, that tbey should run it to suit' themselves. Thrashed the Lawyer. Tacoma, March 9 Jumbo Cantwell, who claims to be tbe busband of tbe widow of tbe late Harry Morgan, gave Lawyer Bates a fearful thrashing and took his overcoat and bat and put them in a stove and burned tbem. Mrs. Mor gan, or Cantwell, is luvi Ived in a legal contest over ber husband's estate and Bates :s her attorney. Cantwell claims that Bates was influencing her against him, and trying to throw ber case. There has been no arrest made so tar, though Mrs. Morgan called on tbe chief of police, but for what purpose is. un known. A VETERAN AND PIONEER SERIOUSLY ILL. General J. W. Sprague, a veteran of tbe rebellion and a pioneer of this city, is seriously ill. Physicians state that bis recovery is doubtful. Drowsed In the Creek.

Heroux left on the afternoon train for Portland. Hon. Henry Heppner, of Heppner. is in town to-day. Grover Cleveland is Dresident of the United States. Mr. J. H. Cradlebausb. of the Hood River Glacier, is io the city. The river was fall of fl wting ice this morning, which was evidently irom the gorge at the rapids. Mr. John Irvine, we are informed, has sold tnat part of his farm taken op under the donation land law for $10,000. Several contested cost bills.resultinz from litigation at the late term of the circuit court, came On for hearing before Clerk Crossen this afternoon. Flags were flying to-dav over public buildings in honor of the inauguration of Presideut Cleveland, and there were a few Cleveland bats on the streets. In the production of a likeness of the hu man face divine, Mr. rlowerday a work shows for itself. His photographs are all nrst-class, and the prices charged are very low. ' We noticed on our streets to-day several farmers from the interior. Tbey report the winter very favorable tor stock and krain, and expect boutstilul returns the coming harvest. Several explosions of anvils took place in the city this afternoon, we presume io hooor of the inauguration of Hon. Grover Cleveland. Our Democratic proclivities were never developed, and therefore we did not rejoice. Hood River Glacier: While gardens aro being made and every thin is spring like, ootb in town and for miles up the valley, yet all across Park hurst on the hill between, tbe snow still lies from eight inches to one foot in depth. ; A case of assault was tried before Justice Schutz yesterday afternoon, in which R. A. Powers was defendant. It was a jury trial, the panel consisting of W E Garretson, Haos Hansen, F Ross, John W Moore, Sam G Campbell and W E Waltuer. After hearing the testimony the jury brought in a verdict of "not entity," aud the deleudaut was discharged. La Grande Gazette: A movement is on foot to organize a band io this city, the members to be regularly enlisted in the Ore gou National Guard, and to be known as the Third Regiment band. We would like to see this plan succeed, as the material i. Iieie for the making of the best band in Eastern Oregon. Instruments, musie and uniforms will be furnished by the state. The Mignonette club gave one ot its char acteristiu entertainment last evening. The ball was filled with the devotees of the "light fantastic," snd the evening passed right merrily. Dancing was indulged in until a late hour. Among those present were Mr and Mrs F L Houghton, Dr and Mrs Soedaker, Judge and Mrs Blakeley, Senator aud Mrs Hilton, Mr and Mrs L,E Crowe, Mr and Mrs Herrin, Misses Miunle Goaser, Virginia and Grace Marden, Jessie Lown, Ciara Grimes, Etfa Story, Carrie Davenport, Laura Morris, Catherine Martin, Miss Lark, Miss VaoVleck, Messrs J H Worsley, H French, F Garret-on, J C Coatswortb, M Donnell, Wm McCrom, F Faulkner, J Hertz, H Lonsdale, J Booth, J B Montgomery, E Sterling, Grant Mays, Dr H Logan. Hood River Glacier: Ed. Miller, met with an accident Wednesday night that came near terminating fatally. He was working io the planer,. oo the night shift, and about 10 o'clock, there being a temporary stop page, Ed. pat on bis overcoat. -When the machinery started again, he went to work with his overcoat, a long canvas one, on. Tbe tail of the coat caught on a set screw on the rhaft of the driving wheel, and in about three seconds it gathered Ed. io, tearing bis clothes off and throwing him on the main belt which carried him a short distance toward the engine room, throwing bim bead foremost to the floor. He received an ugly gash in tbe scalp which bled freely. Dr. BrOsms was called, and dressed the wound, and a few days will see all damage repaired, bat it was a close call. The story of "another good man gone wrong" comes to us from Hood River. From an article in the Glacier we learn that Rev Delos Ho wells, who has been preach ing in that neighborhood, is doubly mar ried, and both wives are living. Mr. How ells' story is tbat be left a wife and family in Nebraska in 1886 aod went to California, where he heard that his wife had secured a divorce from him. Believing this story he Eroposed marriage to his present wife, ast fall he learoed differently, and io Jan uary of this year he told the facta to his wife, wbeo she separated from tne man she had c. lied busband. To her he bad repre sented tbat his wife waa dead, and knowl edge of the facts came to her like a thunder bolt. Tbe innocent victims of this man's villainy are to be pitied, and should receive tbe sympathy ot all fair-minded people; bat the perpetrator of the wrong should receive tbe severest condemnation. From Monday's Dally. County court convened to-day. Frosty nights and delightful days. Miss Carrie Davenport left Saturday on a visit to relatives in Portland. The school meeting attracted considerable interest tbis afternoon. The principal con teat was oo school clerk. Tbere are very few on tbe sick list, and with tbe exception of slight cold, the prac tise of the physician is limited. Mrs. C. M. Bulger was a passenger on the afternoon train yesterday from Portland. She is visiting ber daugbtar in this city. Mr. P. E. Michell, after visiting rela tives in The Dalles for a few days, retorned to Colooibos on the train yesterday after noon. Miss Clara Grimes, wbo has been visiting Miss Ursula Ruch in tbe city for the past few days, returned to ber home in Portland on the afternoon train. The contract for the erection of the Union depot has been let by the Terminal com pany in Portland, and work on tbis imposing structure will be begun soon. Tbe justice court affords small pickings for the reporter, and except an occasioned case of assault and battery tbere is nothing to whet the appetite of the news gatherer. Hon. Beoj. H. Miller, of Maryland, is in tbe city. He is a special agent ot tbe gov ernment to examine into Indian matters. Mr. Miller has been to the Warm Springs, and la now awaiting orders. : . The case of M Tnorborn vs. E. Hender son wss tried in the connty court to-day, and the following jury impanelled: H T Woodcock, B F Laugbliu, C Cosier, James Brown. E N Chandler and James Lewis. Up to the time of going to press testimony was being taken and the case bad not gone io tne jury. Hon. O. P. Hubbard, special agent of the government to look after damages suffered from Indian drepredationa will be at Tbe Dalles on the 8th. His business at Pendle ton has been of a larger volume than he ex pected. Tbe inauguration ot President Clevevand took plack Saturday in Washington City with the most imposing ceremonies, and the Sunday papers devote pages in giving the details and pictures of Mr. Cleveland and his cabinet. Mr. L. O'Brien, of Centerville, Wash., is in town p-dsy, and is a witness in tbe case on trial in tbe county conrt. The snow has disappeared from Klickitat county, but tbe weather is cold aud the niijlita frorty. The stockyards of R. E. Saltmarshe & Co. shipped three carloids of cattle aod 400 nead of sheep to Portlaod last erening. Beef and mutton from the banch-grass hills of Eastern Oregon always supp'y the tables of the metropolis. Paul K. Riuhter and party, of Chicago, weie registered at the Umatilla House yes terday. They came on the noon train aud returned t Portland io the afternoon. The trip was made eviuently for the pur pore of viewing the scenery on the Columbia. The Annie Faxon is making three regular trips oo the river now eaoh week, says the Lswiston Teller. The boat leaves Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The freight traffic is considerable on the river just now. The boat brings up from thiity to forty tons each trip. Everything waa 'quiet and serene at the sheriff's office to-day, as well . it should be so soon after the inauguration of the Demo cratic president. There were no lata ar rivals at the jail, and aside from supmoseing a jury for. the county court tbe bead of "New Business" could have been passed. Poiice matters were very quiet yesterday, and the city jail was lonely snd y a cant. No arrests have been made for two days, and the recorder bas had no important in terviews, where, in a few ords, be could unloose the purse strings of inebriates or other violators of the ordinances of the mu nicipality. Lewiston Teller: Word is reported that tbe steamer on its trip op last Tuesday, located the body of the mao drowned Tbanksgivirg dav. An investigation was to have been made on the trip down Friday. If the sup position proves correct, the last one of the unfortunate victims has been found. The last one is the man Harvey. Thomaa U. Sladden was killed at tbe Union depot in f ortland Saturday evening about 5 o'clock. He was standing on the rear platform of the next to the last car of the Southern Pacific train, and by some means fell off snd was dragged by the front steps of the last car under it. His head and chest were badly crushed, and he lived only ten minutes. Tuesday morning, says the Springfield Messenger, an eagle was een descending io a lowering circle above Kelly Butte. When within a hundred feet from the grouod, it swooped down upon the back of a yearling colt. The colt started down the hill at rapid rate with Mr Eagle clinging to his back. AfWtn apparently enjoyable ride of about fifty yards the eagle rose and cir cled up beyond the elouds. The Portland Telegram bas discovered sn idiom in ase in Eastern Oregon and no where else. It is peculiar to the ludges of the Sixth judicial district, "Shake the box, Mr. Clerk, aod let the jury come." It is a peculiar expression and is a relio of Jodge L. L. McArthur a service on the bench to the Sixth district, aod it is a not able fact that every judge tbat has served in that district since Juie McArtbur's time, uses that expression which ts not used in any other district in the state. 'Wales," ssys a western Welshman, "has given three presidents to the United Stales Jefferson, Adams aod Monroe. Thomas Jefferson was pure Welsh, too, and tbe Welshmen of Joew York are now organizing a movement to erect a giand monument to bim. Tbere are 6.000,000 Welsa and their immediate descendants in this country, aod over 1,200.000 pare Welsh and tbeir first descendants. The Welsh, Irish and Scotob are in my opinion all offshoots of the little band of Aryans tbat passed over trom little Brittany and settled on what are now tbe British Isles." Salem Journal: Tbe new assessment laws leave a deficit in future eity and school funds, and it is tbe opinion of gentlemen, ho have investigated, tbat tbe city and district will have to borrow money to run the schools with for 18U3 1894. The school warrants will not draw interest. Incompe tent clerks got in this work and the state oi New York appears several times in the Lswton tax bUl and other minor defects run all through it. Gentlemen are now exam ining tbe matter, and the people will prob ably be forced to manage very closely until tbe new system gets under wsy. From Tuesday's Daily. . Mr. Chat.

Leavens, of Cascade Locks, who has been Quite sick, is recovering. He is still confined to bis room, but expects to be around in a few days. Fossil haa shipped its fire engine back to Mlddletown, Coun., and the flames would play sad havoe with property if tbey ever get a good start in that town. Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Hinton, accompanied by Mrs. H in ton's mother aod sister, Mrs. Bird aod Miss Lola Bird, returned last night from a' winter's sojourn in Soathern California. .... Mr. aod Mrs. G.

An alarm of fir was sounded last evening about half past 7 o'clock, and the depart ment wa, soon on the scene. It proved to be the New Columbia hotel, and tbe incipi ent blaze was soon under control." No dam age was done, bnt if the fire had got good headway in that locality it would baye been very disastrous. Tbe case of M. Thorbourn vs. J. C. Wood went to the jury last evening, and tba jury soon returned a verdict for the plaintiff, as being entitled to the possession of the prop erty, but not entitled to damages. Snow fell here last Sunday evening to the depth of 2 inches, says the Antelope Her ald, and it made the ground very slippery sgain. Sheepmen all returned to feeding, but their scare lasted only two or three days. The engineers of the Mohr road on the Washington side of the river clsim the Co lumbia river is 70 feet higher at Grant than at this city, and that tbe highest point on the road between Grant and Goldendale is 1600 feet. A party of chotogranhers. representing the Columbian View Company, shot their camera at the buildings on Front and Second streets to-day. They claim tbat these views will be on exhibition at tbe Chicago exposition. Heppner comes Io the front with an elopment of a married man, the father ol seven children, with a young woman. Tbe wife, very sensibly, did not attempt to follow them, but will apply for a di vorce from lhe worthless creature. Hon. W. H. H. Dufur. of Dufur. is in the city. He says tho snow is about oae foot deep in the vicinity of bis farm, and he still feeds his cattle. These he has fed since the 19th of December, and he does not expect to turn them out for several days. On tbe examination at Heppner. last Wednesday, T. K. Itoberls, who was ar rested in Albany for embezzlement com mitted in Morrow county, sufficient evi dence was not produced to bold him for tbe crime, and lie was roleased from cus tody. W. F. Thomas, for procuring money under false pretenses, wss bound over to the grand jury this morning in the sum o( $400. This is the mao who falsely personated a . member of the law firm of Killiu, Stsr ot Thomas in tnis city, ad procured a loa i from one of our attorneys. Tbe severity of the winter In Dm Priest river valley, Idaho, has driven tbe Indi ana to depredations. They raided Jim Reynold's and drove off the cattle. Seven ranchers followed. In the fight one of the Indians was killed and two Indians and two whites were wounded. The citizens of Antelope are taking steps toward baying teU phone communication with Sherman coantv. and to tins end the last issue (f.the I raid has devoted an . article calling upon th i iter.'.tid to sub itcri's the amrmut c f $'2C00, cu t thut secure connection w:tb Moro. Tim is s commend- ble eoterpiisc, and we hope it will be sue- . ces.ful. Articles of incorporation were filed to day with ibe county clerk ot The 1)1 lea, Dufur and Antelope Telephone Company, nd the capital stock is $2000, divided into 200 shares of $10 esch. Tbe incorporators , sre Geo. W. Rowland. A. A. Urquhart and ' G. R. Rowland, and the objeot is to con struct and operate a telenhono line between this city, Uutur, Kingsley and Antelope. Tbat tbe cholera will visit us next sum mer is almost a certainly. It is begin niog its campaign early at various Euro- Eean points, aod it seems almost Impossi- . le to prevent its entry into the United Stales. The first preventive is cleanli ness, and every American city should be gin at once a vigorous warfare upon dirt of all kinds. The first discovery of gold in Eastern Oregon was made in tbe summer of 1862 by party uf prospectors from California and the Willamette Valley, who were making their way to mines on Salmon river in Northern Idaho. They camped near the present townsite of Canyon City where gold waa discovered, and which for several years made the liveliest mining oamp oo the Pa ct bo coast. The advertisement of Mr. H. Herbriog appears in another column. He is deter mined tbat bad debts shall bave no other effect than to increase bis business enter prise, and to tbia end the prices at which be offers to sell goods is surprising. Such merchants are bound to succeed any where, and it is not Io be wondered at that Mr. Herbring can oiler the induce ments he does. Tbe foreign papers bave a good joke on Queen Victoria. It seems tbat the last time she was down to Osborne the band came to serenade her., iney piayea a piece which took ber fancy, and she sent an attendant to learn tne name oi tne piece. He went and inquired, and com ing book, with a good deal of embarrass ment, explained to her majesty tbat it was entitled, "Come Where the Booze is Cheaper." Tbe negro editors of Georgia, repre senting twe.ve papers, recommended tbat instead of "colored" the word "Negro" be used, and spelled with capital letter. This suggests to tbe New York Sun tbe night during tbe war, when tbe Hon. Fred Douglas got out of a train at Jersey 'ltv He wore a big shawl over bis over coat, and a reporter, seeing the dark skin and towering form ot a traveler, stoppea him with Ibe question: "Indian?" "Not" shouted Douglas, "Nigger 1" anyon City Afcm; 'Possums don't grow in Oregon. However, the Hews man and others bad the pleasure of again sit ting around a 'possum dinner at M. E. Stansell'a last Habbalh. Prof. Hicks, of tbe public school, sent way back to Pike county, Missouri, for the bird, wbicb came out packed in ice. Tbis was doubt less the on v ODossum in Oregon on mat day, and tasted real good served up hot with imported sweet potatoes. Work is expected to begin at the Locks this week by Day Bros., the contractors. The ground is sufficiently tree from snow for operations to commence, and tbey are now waiting fur iron to lay a track to the Herman creek quarry. Uranite has been cut at their works in Callfornla.and these stones will be brought to tbe Locks. It is expected that there will be a thousand men employed as soon as tbe water is pumped out of tbe canal; but this will not be done until after the June freshet. Grant County Newt: News comes from tbe San Francisco Examiner's annual prize drawing that F. D. Smith, of Wagner, Ore., has won tbe capital prize consisting ot twenty acres ot orange land in Cal ifornia. F. D. Smith is the fellow who was around here last fall, and who went over to Wagner and worked tor hit board during the winter. He sent in nis suo- ecription to the Examiner two days before the time allotted to contestants expirea, and is a lucky man indeed. The price is worth $8500 The Government Loses, A dispatch was received by the Orego- nian, which reads as follows: Washington. March 0 The supreme court to-day decided against the United Htates in its suit against the California & Oregon Land Con. pany, to set aside and declare void the title of tbe land com pany to tracts in Oregon, purchased by the company from persons acquiring title from grantees under what are known as the wagon-road land grants, nnder acts of congress, and the decision of the lower court is affirmed. This will settle the title to the lands in Eastern Oregon claimed nnder The Dalles Military Wagon Road Co., and will be welcome news. to very many settlers. Nearly all these lands hays passed out ot tbe company to bona fide purchasers, and, if the government had gained the suit, it would have put them to considerable trouble to secure title. As It Is, tholr rights in the property cannot be ques tioned.
