It will be a hard blow - if for Oregon if it passes." . . - , . y 1 Bro. Shutt, of the Antelope Herald, re- - pels the charge that the paper is Demo ' - cratic and says: - "The Herald is inde- ' " pendent in everything, and particularly in politics. Its editor is a Republican and protectionist in every sense of the word, and can say with pride that he cast ' his first vote for Benjamin Harrison on the 8th day of Novenj ber, 1892. The Her ald does not nor never did believe in free . trade tor the United States." East Ortgonian: The Union Pacific train from Portland this morning carried, a peculiar passenger. 6onie miles below' Pendleton a band of sheep trad scattered over and along the track, and as the train came along it crashed into thcm.throwing tnem right and Ictt. (juite a number were killed, but one sheep was canght on ' the pilot and not in the least injured. When the train stopped at the depot in Pendleton the sheep was still there, alive but almost frightened to death by its un usual experience.

The ditch, we bavt been told, ia an assured fact and a gone portion is already built aud the remainder . will be completed early enough io.thv spriLg to be available for cropping. A supply of water is all tnat ia needed to ' make our aatie brush land productive.

Mike Maloney, who has been herding sheep for Thomas Wipgfield - lor some time, left bis camp in Lake county - Wednesday night without his shoes or coat. He wandered about all night in the snow and arrived in Lakeview Thurs dny; barefooted and his feet frozen. He was taken to the hotel and cared for. His mind was pronounced affected by Dr. Daly and he will probabl) be sent to 8a lem as soon as his feet get well enough for bim to travel. No cause is known ior his peculiar malady.

About two weeks ago some unknown person entered the residence of Mrs. Mary Foster, who resides east of Long Creek, and stole $40 wnicn sue naa secreted about ber residence, says the Eagle. If robbery and theft in any manner was leg itimate, it certainly would not be in this ' ' '- instance, from the s:mple fact that Mrs. Foster is a hardworking widow womar, who finds it hard enough to support her self and family without anyone being so unkind, unjust and unmerciful as to ac- ' tually take the necessaries ot life from her. The one who committed this theft has do heart at all. Baker City .Democrat: The DeLamar Hotel, at DeiAinar, was totally destroyed lay flre about 4 o'clock Saturday morning, the fire originating in the rear part of the hnilrlincr in the feitnhpn. and had cot be yond control when discovered, but 1V hard work nearly all the. contents were saved..

Dr. Hollister was called, inserted several stitches in the scalp and applied the'usaal surgical reme dies to the other injuries. , Portland suffered a wintry breeze thia morning, ami two inches of snow covers the streets ot the metropolis. If o .r neighbors of- the Willamette valley desiro mild win ers they should come to The Dalles, where wild fl iwers were picked en the hillsides a few days ago. The man John Hull, who ia now in the couLty jail, held for the murder of Cum mings near the Locks, waa arrested Inst cummer in this city, and pawned his re yolyer for bis floe.

It will be a long time yet before tbe tuildint.a are completed and the exhibits arranged, aud the formal open ing nia consequently 03en indefinitely post poned. Tbe gates were thrown open on New Year's Day, however, and the side shows are raunirg, ao that people may spend their money just the tame as if the exposition were ready. The outlook tor sheepmen in this state- is rathecgloomy at present, says the Eilena bnrgh Localizer. With wool wortb not to exceed rive cents a pound and mutton sheep at lees than $1 50 tbey canuot s e where the money is comics from to pay the herder, the shearer and the taxes. The upshot of it is some of those engaged in raising sheep are'getting cut of the business. But there is do sale for stock sheep and many will not he able to sell at all. - )u, The Umatillas and Bannocks hsve , lu finished a pow wow near Pendleton uu which they smoktd the pipe of peace a ' after lodmn fashion, cemented evi r astiue friendship.

Both children suf fered severely from the acalding, until the usual remedies were applied; but it is not expecttd that there win be any serious le -ults from the accident. Heppner Gazette: Down at Willows Juoc'tior, laborers aad teams are busily en gaged in removing earth aud stone pre paratory for the erection of a depot build ing. Other railroad appurtenances will bt jut in, Kud we have it straight that the run of the Heppntr branch will shortly be arranged to emt at Willows Junction in stead of at Arlington. At one. time this p ace was considered the tnd ot a division md for the location of railroad shops, ami it is Eot unlikely that in the future this will be realized. A ferry is being locate jU tbe Columbia opposite the Junction, and it is not at all improbable that when the railroad . company proceeds to favor the town, that ia to be, that tbis will be jtiat the place for the location of a hotel and store. . Tbe report of the branch asylum commit tee, consisting uf Superintendent L. L R win d of the state insane asylum, Dr W. T. Williams m drat assistant physician, ud Dr. J. A. Riel ardsoo of toe consulting board, was not reaouad at the meeting yta terday, says the Salem Stattuman of Wednesday. Tbis will probably be read -nd considered at the meeting ot the trus tees to day. It will, very likely, settle tbe matter of a location of the branch insane asylum for Eistern Oregon, as the commit tee waa sent to that sestiou recently to look into the sanitary condition of the maDy sites offered. Tbe report will coyer all the points taken into consideration by the trio of physicians, and it is auxious'y awaited by tbe sites contesting for the location of the new institution.

This is the way tha new year appeared at Wasco, "as given in the co'umns of the News: "Jan 1, 1S91, was about as dreary a day as one generally sees. A heavy raid fell all day until evening' when it turned to snow. This, together with thn general dis ruption of almost everything moveable in the town; from Wash Reynold's buggies to ths grewsome corpse which hung about ba'f way uq the Hag pole, gave our city the ap pearance of having beeu struck by a Kansas cvclooe." - The delay ths forenoon in the arrival of trains from Portland was caused by the steam shovel, which waa at work near M osier, toppling over. This occurred yes tecday evening and the wrecking crew went down from this city this moNiing, and while the track is not injured the wrecking cir did cot give np its position, except for the regular passenger train, nntil the steam shovel was righted.

A Family Poisoned.. Salem Democrat: Tha fanr.ily of Paul Oberheim had 4 New Year's feast which cime tear having disastrous results. After a hearty dinner the members of the family began, one by one, to complain of sickness at the etomach, aad then the symptoms be-' gan to assume a serious tarn. Dr. Reynold was caled at ahout 11 o'clock, tie found the family, Mr. and Mrs. Oberheim, thir four daughters and aon-iu-la, afflicted with sim'lar symptoms, sickness at the stomach accompanied by vomiting. Upon inquiry it was learned that the principal di&h at the dinner waa a fresb roast of pork whicb all of those present had partaken .of to a greater or less extent. Whether the poison was in the meat or to some other article of fold Or in soma cooking utensil could not be ascertained. The physician prescribed for the family and the condition of the various membera yesterday was much improved,, with the exception of the youngest daughter, who' is prostrated and still shows serious symptoms. The Enike Eiver Trade. ' Leviaton Teller. The steamer Almoin tied np st the wharf Friday morning and went into winter quar ters. The tie-op will be made here tbis year instead of st White's" landing. - The crew were busy all day Friday in getting the boat in ship shape to ward off the ice float. Tbe boilers were emptied and cleaned, and the cylinder beads taken out and tbe cylinders and pistons carefully oiled to prevent rust. The crew .was then dis missed, subject to call of the captain, when spting opens again. The boat stopped, not because of the weather, as bas been re ported, but because of lack ef business. The traffic on tbe river bas been light all season and the loaa of tbe wheat crop bas made the winter traffic worse than ever. Captain Baughman says that the loss on tha last trip alone was $30. The river is open and free from ice, and all who are ac quainted with the river say that there will be little or no ice to interfere tbis year.
