Last week the California & Oregon
Land Company paid $2408.40 taxes on
its land in Klamath countv, where it
has 145,000 acres of land, granted orig
inally to the Oregon Central Military
Wagonroad Company, the total grant
amounting to l.ioo.ouu acres. Tne
road was never really built, but the
Klamath Falls Express says that the
state derives more benefit by the re
ceipt of taxes from the lands than it
would by disposing of them otherwise,
for the property is practically valued
less, and not- more than one tenth of
the acreage would ever be settled
upon.

ticians and business men of the state
have lately, through the columns of
the Oreqonian, given the farmers
much sage advice as to how to con
duct their business in order to prosper.
it would now seem the proper thing-
for one hundred eminent farmers to
tell the lawyers and business men how
to conduct their business in order to
prosper. Good advice of this sort
doesn't cost much, and it would be un
gracious to discuss its value.
COMMENDABLE ENTERPRISE.
The New Opera House Will be of Large
Fro portions and Capable of Seating
About 1200.
Mr. Max Vogt is pushing work on
the opera house, and will have it com
pleted at the earliest possible date,
The walls are solid and in good condi
tion, and these will require but little
repairing. Over two of the doors the
lintels were broken as a result of the
fire, and these have been replaced by
new ones. The roof willbe supporte d
by trusses of the Howe pattern, and
the span will be 63 feet in length.
This will do away with all pillars in
the auditorium, and will give clear
space for drilling and for seating pur
poses. When finished the hall will be
125x60 feet, with 29-foot ceiling, and a
space of about 32 feet will be used for
the stage and dressing rooms. The
entrance will be on Third street, near
the center of the block; but there will
be several exits on the alley, so that,
in case of accident, there will be an
opportunity for all to escape.
Mr. Vogt is entitled to considerable
commendation for his enterprise in re
fitting this building. During the con
flagration of September, 1891, he was
a heavy loser, and his elegant three
story brick blocks went up in flames
without any possibility of averting the
destruction. This discouraged him
for a long time, and he considered it a
waste of money to put it in buildings
to furnish food for flames. The pros
pects of a revival of business this sum
mer has given him confidence that
there will be better times in the
future, and the worst depression has
passed. When the house will be ready
for occupancy Mr. Vogt will have
spent several thousands of dollars, and
it will . be of great benefit to the
city. It is hoped that it will be the
beginning of an era of enterprise and
investment in The Dalles, and that the
city wiM give evidence of permanent
advancement during the coming sea

A dispatch dated Enterprise,
April 30th, has the following:
John i) lemming, a young farmer liv
ing about four miles southeast from
Enterprise, was shot and instantly
killed yesterday morning by John Ba
sim. The two lived neighbors. Flem-
ming and his 7-year-old son rode over
to the tfasim ranch in the morning to
look for a cow. Basim and Flemming
had some hot words, about the cow
trespassing on Basimjs property. Ba
sim, who was plowing at the time, un
hitched his horses and rode on to his
house about half a mile away, while
Flemming and the boy continued to
search for the cow. Basim soon re
turned armed with a shot gun and or
dered Flemming off the ranch. They
had some further words when Basim
raised the gun and fired. The entire
charge from the gun entered Flem-
ming's right chest piercing the lung
cavity and causing instant death. Ba
sim rode over and told his brother
what he had done, and then came to
this place and gave himself - up to
Sheriff Neal.
Both parties are well known here.
Basim has been considered an excel
lent citizen, but is said to be a man of
very high temper. The examination
of the defendant, charged with mur
der, in the first degree, is now in prog
ress oeiore judge uimstead.
At the inauest over the remains of
Flemming the coroner's jury returned
a verdict of murder against Basim.
Both the parties connected with the
tragedy have families, and the affair
has caused a great amount of public
excitement.
CONGREGATIONAL CHURCHES. -
Meeting- of the Mid-Columbia Association
at Condon.
The association of Congregational
chuches met at Condon in Gilliam
county last Wednesday, and continued
in session two evenings and one day.
Rev. W. C. Curtis, pastor of the Con
gregational church in this city, was in
attendance, and returned last evening.
He reports that the meeting was very
interesting to all concerned in the
work, and the people of Condon were
very courteous to the visitors. The
church building was wrecked by a cy
clone recently, but the association
took hold of the matter, and stimulated
the people to an extra effort and the
edifice will be rebuilt at once. There
were present ministers from churches
in different parts of the state, and
they appeared well pleased at the
progress being made in their fields of
labor. -The sessions were made inter
esting by the discussion of pertinent
subjects, and the sermons and ad
dresses delivered in the evening were
especially good. There was a good at
tendance of people at all the meetings,
and it was very much regretted 'when
tne association adjourned.
Winter Was Drowned.
The Enterprise at Aurora confirms the
report of the drowning of W. t. win
ter, a prominent stockman of Prairie
creek, in Snake river. It learns that
Mr. Winter started about noon, Satur
day a week ago, from his camp to go
to go the Warnock stock ranch about
a mile distant along a dangerous trail
close to the river. In passing a steep
incline, the mule he was riding slipped
and went over the bluff about 50 feet
into the river, carrying the rider with
him. The dead mule and saddle were
found on the bluff. Also blood and
some hair was found where Winter's
head struck a rock in his fall. A dili
gent search was made for the body, but
without' success at the time of Frank
Winter's departure for the valley. The
deceased was well advanced in years,
and was a highly respected citizen, and
at one time was one of the leading
stockmen of the valley, though of late
years he had been unfourtnate in
financial matters.
Jack Brady.
The report of the presence in Ore
gon of Brady, the supposed murderer
of Bogard, the California sheriff, has
brought a number of amateur detec
tives into the field. Every man who
acts at all suspiciously is placed under
surveillance. At Salem the other
night an individual who was trying to
make his way home with a load of bock
beer fell into a gutter and was imme
diately surrounded by a number of
?oung men armed with cobble stones
'hey thought they had Brady, sure.
The man finally explained himself and
resumed his journey, It was reported
the other night that Brady was in Pen
dleton, and several men anxious to
earn the $15,000 reward went on his
trail. .
A Tough Story.
The season for fish stories has opened,
and the Roseburg Review does not pro
pose to take a back seat. It comes to
the front with this statement: "D. P.
Fisher caught five sturgeon in his nets
a few nights ago, and has three of
them tied up now to the river bank
near town. A rope passed through
holes in their gills is tied back of their
heads, holding them very securely,
and as the fish are stout, sturdy fel
lows, about six feet in length. Mr.
Fisher ties them to his boat frequently
and allows them to draw him around
over the river, this being very much
easier than rowing.

Jack Welch is Identified by Saylor and
Taken Back to Umatilla County.
Sheriff Houser and Mr. Saylor, the
barber at Umatilla arrived on the
morning train, and left with Welch on
a mixed freight soon afterwards. He
at first denied that he had committed
the robbery, but when confronted by
Saylor acknowledged that he was
guilty and asked for mercy. . The facts
in the case are as follows: Mr. Say
lor's wife was absent on a visit to
friends, and Welch stayed with him
doing chores around the house. He
had implicit confidence in the fellow,
and he occupied the same bed with
Saylor. The barber, after his day's
work, was in the habit of putting the
purse containing his money under the
mattress. Welch had taken careful
note of this, and had made his plans
accordingly. Mrs. Saylor was expect
ed home Wednesday, and Saylor in
formed Welch of the fact. Early in
the morning, Welch got up and went
out, and Saylor thought nothing of the
matter until the west bound train pass
ed down the road. He then suspected
that something was wrong, and search
ed for his purse. It was missing, and
his suspicion fastened on Welch. ' On
making inquiries at the depot he found
that Welch had taken that train for
The Dalles. He immediately tele
graphed to this city, and the man was
arrested. Fortunately the money -was
found on his person, excepting 75
cents, which it is presumed he paid to
a brakeman for the privilege of riding
on the blind baggage. Mr. Saylor,
notwithstanding the fact that he is out
the expenses of his trip to The Dalles
and return, is highly pleased that the
man who betrayed his confidence is
arrested,, add hopes that he will be
properly punished for the crime.

A COMFORTABLE HOME.
A Farm That is WeU Situated and Highly
Cultivated.
Mr. Richard Palmer, one of the
most successful farmers on Fifteen
Mile creek, was in the city yesterday.
He says the season has been dry, and
some of the grain sown has not
sprouted yet. His orchard gives every
indication of a large yield, and the
fruit have not been damaged in the
least by frosts or cold weather. The
farm of Mr. Palmer is on a plateau be
tween Fifteen Mile and Ramsay
creeks, and in summer is one of the
most delightful spots in Wasco. It is
well improved in everyway, and, with
a comfortable dwelling house, has a
large barn and sheds to store his im
plements. The snow-capped range of
the Cascades is plainly in view, and
the grand scenery which can be seen
at a single glance, charms every vis
itor. In any mention of this attract
ive farm, Mrs. Palmer's excellent
culinary department should receive
notice. Born and bred in a land that
boasts of good livers, she has not for
gotten her early training, and never al
lows a guest to depart without replen
ishing his system by substantial re
freshments placed in the most tempt
ing manner and ot tne best the mark
ets afford. A few seasons of nlentv.
with good prices for products, will place
Mr. Palmer in the list- of princely
farmers, for which position nature has
designed him.
ARRESTED AND HELD.
Patrick Welsh Arrested for RobJIery at
Umatilla and Held for Sheriff Houser.

The man is between 35 and 40 years

the crime of which he is charged. No
further intelligence of the act could be

CURRANT CREEK ROAD.
The Work Being Done on This Highway
and Its Importance to The Dalles.
Antelope Herald.
Last week Mr. J. H. Sherar invited
several citizens of this place out to see
the work he had already done on the
new Currant creek road, a few miles
southeast of here None could get
away at the time but Messrs. JN. W,
Wallace and W. D. Jones, who were
out all day Thursday, have the follow
ing report to make:
.....
They say it would surprise anyone to
see the amount of work Mr. ssnerar
has done on the road with the limited
funds and in such a short time. It is
a very rough, mountainous country out
there, but the road has been laid out
so well that, when completed, a team
could easily trot up the grade at any
place, there not being a steep place in
the whole road. The sixteen Indians
who are employed are all well-experi
enced road workers, and one of them
could do as much at this kind of work
as two or three inexperienced men
The road, so far as it has been built, is
actually the best highway in this part
of the country, and if the county court
will at once appropriate $500 with
which to complete the balance of the
road, in less than two weeks there will
be no obstruction between the upper
country and The Dalles the best local
wool market on the coast. Heppner is
working hard to get a road through to
the Mitchell country, and if successful
it will induce about one-half the travel
to go that way instead of to The
Dalles, that is unless this new Currant
Creek road is completed at once.
Those who will be benefited most by
the new road will be the business men
of The Dalles, and it is their duty to
insist on the county court appropriat
ing the requisite amount of money
with which to complete this road. If
this is not done, all the hard work al
ready performed will be entirely lost.
We believe the county court will do
what is right in the matter.

State Teachers' Institute.
State Superintendent Irwin and
President Chapman, of the state - uni
versity, met the management of the
Willamette Valley Chautauqua Asso
ciation at Oregon City last Tuesday,
and made final arrangements for the
joint meeting of the Chautauqua as
sembly and the State Teachers' Asso
ciation at Gladstone Park July 10 to
20. It was decided to give over the
last three days entirely to the teach
ers, State Superintendent Irwin and
his committees to take entire charge
of the programme for those days. This
action was taken in response to re
quests from all parts of the state, and
it insures a larger and more brilliant
educational gathering this year than
Oregon has yet seen.
MURDER IN BAKER COUNTY.
John Preston Shot and Killed by T. Gold-
worthy at the Virtue Mine.
The Baker City Democrat of May 2d
has the following account of a homi
cide at the Virtue mine the day pre
vious:
"Thomas Goldworthy and John
Preston are miners, and have for a
long time past been employed at the
Virtue. Last evening they came in
from work and at the supper table en
gaged in a quarrel that soon became
very bitter. Geld worthy got up from
the table and left the dining room,
and from what afterward occurred he
must have went to his lodgings and
procured a pistol. When Preston had
finished his meal and was just going
out of the door of the dining room.
Goldworthy opened fire upon him, five
shots in rapid succession startling the
whole camp with a fever of excite
ment. Preston fell to the ground, and
when persons got to where he was ly
ing it was found that he was struck by
two of the buiiqts at least, one ball en
tenner the side of the body and an
other in the breast.
Mr. Borman was hurried from the
scene before a thorough examination
of Preston's wounds had been made,
and whether more than two shots had
taken effect he could not tell; but all
indications pointed to the mortal
wounding of the man.
"The circumstances surrounding the
tragedy points to the- existence of an
old feud between Goldworthy and
Preston. They have been long ac
quainted; in fact had mined in other
camps together. For some past - time
there seemed to be a coolness between
them, although it is not known that
they had ever quarreled and previous
to the dispute at the supper table no
one was aware that any bitter ill feel
ing existed. So sudden was the whole
affair that the exact facts could not be
obtained.
"After firing the shots, that will
probably send a fellow mortal into eter
nity, Goldworthy made his escape
without any attempt on the part of per
sons near at hand to detain or arrest
him. He left on foot and dressed in
his mining clothes. The officers in
this city were notified and will prob
ably put forth every effort in their
power to apprehend the murderer, and
t can be done if proper means are em
ployed.

was Carlyle's expression of the
experience of many people who

food cooked with lard. How
often we hear the remark, "I like
it, but dare not eat it." To any

indeed a boon. By the use of

AN EPIDEMIC OF ROBBERY.
The Mania for Honse-Breaklna; is . Ram
pant In Baker City.
The Baker City Democrat of Tuesday
reports no less than four cases of
house-breaking in that city and imme
diate vicinity. On Sunday morning
Isadore ' Fuon's room -was' entered
while the occupant was asleep and an
imported swiss watch which cost $275,
and $14 in money was taken. The
same morning the bedroom of Henry
Bust was ransacked, his clothes re
moved to a woodshed, but no great
amount of valuables was secured.
On Saturday night the store of Wil
cox Bros, in Haines, was burglarized.
The store was entered, and the con
tents of the money drawers rifled of a
few dollars in small change. As far as
known no goods were taken.
At an early hour Monday morning
the warehouse of Messrs. Yoacum &
Lee, at Express, was robbed of a quan

The Astoria Budget is hard up. It
appeals for money: The Budget don't
want much money, but it would like to
have a dime once in a while just for
the luck, and enough to buy a pot
roast at least once a month. Of course
our landlord, our groceryman, our

don't want any money; the printers,
the pressman, the carriers, the editors,
the bookkeeper and our paper house

Steam Tricycles Instead of
W. P. Miller, of Ukiah, California,
received a telegram Thursday, an
nouncing that ha was the successful
bidder for a mail route between Ukiah
and Harris. Harris is 90 miles north.
Mr. Miller has placed an order for two
six-horse power gasoline tricycles,
which he will use instead of horses.
Mr. Miller says the tricycles work
finely. He expects to have five in ope
ration soon as nis contract runs for
three years. This is the onlv stage line
in the United States which will be run
by steam tricycles, and the experiment
will be watched with interest all over
the country. They will have room for
passengers and mail, and will have a
speed of from 3 to 12 miles per hour,

and four days. Two of the first litter
that were slaughtered before nine
months of age, dressed 250 pounds

litter of 3,750 pounds of pork. With

Notice to Water Consumer. 1
The Water Commissioners have
ordered that the rules concerning the
use of water for irrigation be printep
and posted upon the gates of consum
ers so that all may understand what
the rules are. This has been done as
ordered. The great waste of water
heretofore and the limited supply,
make the enforcement of thes) rules
absolutely necessary. All consumers
will please take notice of these regu
lations and in case of' a violation of
the rules the water will be at once
shut off and a charge of $1.00 will be
made before again making the con
nection. I. J. Norman,
Superintendent.
Railroads.
The mileage of all railroads on the
globe at the end of 1892 was 406,416
miles, according to statistics or one
mile to every 3,516 inhabitants. Porto
Rico is the state containidg the
shortest length of railway, numbering
11 miles and the United States has by
far the greatest 174,784 miles. Next,
but a long way behind, comes Germany,
with 24,018 miles. The United King
dom is fourth with 20,325 miles and
Russia fifth with 19,656 miles. The
United States will likely continue to
lead, as. she is still doing the most
building.

V. Hannserly. a well-known business man
of Hlllsboro, Va., sends this testimony to
the merits of Ayer's Sarsaparilla i "Several
years ago, I hurt my leg, the Injury leaving
a sore which led to erysipelas. My sufferings
were extreme, my leg, from the knee to the
ankle, being a solid sore, which began to ex
tend to other parts of the body. After trying
various remedies, I began taking Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, and, before I bad finished the
first bottle, I experienced great relief: the
second bottle effected complete cure.'

There are at present six factories in

others. The largest oi inese lactones
is the one at vvatsonville, Cal., which
has a capacity of about 1000 tons of
beets per day. The Chino factory con

when the country is rid of them.
