Wo hear from parties attending the
Union county fair, that' no great in
terest has been manifested this year.
The attendance has beep very niccgre,
and all classes of exhibits have been
extraordinarily 'poor. We are sorry
thjs is a fact, but tho management of
thp fairs, pf lato years, has brought
about tho result. There must be some
incentivo given, or those who have
good exhibits will not spend their time
and money in attendance upon a fair
that amounts to aJmo3t a farce.
Tho Daily Sago Brush states that
the Pino Creek mines lie 47 miles
north-west 6f Baker Citj Wfo might
attribute Such a statement to its ignor
ance of tho geographical location of
them, wcro it not for the fact that it
holds out tho idea that they aro only
17 miles from Baker City. We doubt
if an air lino from Baker to the mines
would fall under that distance, for her
stages to the mines have to travel not
less than 75 mijes to reach Cornuco
pia, the Pine terminus.
In a fow weeks there will be a very

etc, published jn the Scout. The sto

new novel, which will not be published
in book form till sometime during the
winter. Those who wish to read this
very interesting novej would do wclhto
subscribe for the Scout, immediately,
as tho price of subscription is.nd- more
than the book will cost, besides you

On Wednesday of last week Mrs.
S. M. Yoran and Mrs. M.J.Thompson,
of Eugene City, were outriding, when,
on turning a corner, they unexpectedly
came in near proximity to William
Horn's traction engine, which was
standing in tho street, propelling a saw
in Dr. Geary's back yard. ' A large
amount of steam was blown off just
as tjicy wero turning the corner, which
so frightened the horso as to render
him unmanageable and cause him to
run away, striking one of tho shade
trees and throwing the occupants to
the ground. Both lacjies were thrown
upon ' their faces. Mrs. Yoran was
considerably bruised from tho effects
of tho fall, but will recover. Mrs.
Thoihpsons injuries wcro such that
death ensued in a few hours.

,nothcr .Murder in linker ponnty,
Another foul murder was commlUcd last
w,vk, on Bullyxreek, at the warm firings,
near the mouth of Cottonwood, in Baket
( ounty The Democrat ylvrs the following
account of tho tragedy; "lwt Thursday
night, a settlor at that place, named Jack
son, and his partner, whoso name we aro
unablo to learn, were killed while asieep,
ami frs. Jackson was shot ih thchood
but, wo learn, pot dangerously wounded.
Jackson's partner wq sleeping in a hay
stack, ntul was killed with an axe. Tho
stack was then jired and the assassins pro
ceeded to the lfousa yhcro the. finishing
touch was put upon their pondish work.
There w'crc two Other' persons on tho prom
ices, quo In the house and (he other in the
stable, noithcr of whom wcro molested
Mr. Jackson saw t vo men leaving the
yard just after the shooting but was' un
aLle Jo recognise them. Tho causa Of (his
tragedy Is. as yet, unknown, but it is hoped
that tho investigation vljich must follow,
will bring out such evidence as will glYe a
clue to the murd.ereis."
If seems that about three weeks previous
to the murder, a tramp staid over night at
Mr. Jackson's. During a conversation that
evening Mr. Jackson soidihathoh.-id "done
pretty well, and had accumulated sujlicicnt
money to purchase . ::o head of horses."
Tho day previous the murder, this Fame
tramp returnud, bringing with him another
man, and put up for the night. There is
no doubt that he or they committed the
foul crime. Wc learn that the man sua
picioned of the murder, had been caught
and had a hearing befuro a justice, but the
justice not thinking the evidence sutllciont
to bind tho man over, discharged him. He
not only discharged him. but pave him
money to pay his way to Baker City, where
the man said he lived, and could get njany
persons to vouch for his uprightness. De
velopments havo prqveu that no such man
resides, or ever did reside in Maker. A
lieriirs posse is after him and no doubt he
will be apprehended. If caught, tho chan
ces are that retribution will be meted out
in a speedy manlier.
IiATr.i!, We learn from Mr. Oaloway, -an
old resident of this county, wno was ii the
vicinity of the murdor at the time, and who
assisted in dressing Mrs. Jackson's wound,
and also 1 card the coroner's examination,
the following particulars: On tho nigjit of
the murder, a man by the name of Bailey
staid over night at Mr. Jackson's, also a
book agent. Mr. Uailey. Mr. Jackson's
boy and Mr. Johnson were sleeping at
some hay stacks near the house, but in
different places. Mr. Jaeke.on and wife
wore (sleeping on a bedstead at tho end of
the house, out qf doors, while the book
peddler was lodged in the house. Mr.
Johnson, a young man well known as
"Tony," and who formerly drove tho stage
between Summervillo and Joseph, was
killed with an axe. Mr. Jackson was shot
while asleep, the ball passing through his
head and striking Mrs. Jackson in the fore
head, glancing and following the skull
around to the back part of her hoad, where
;t lodged. The book agent stated that
when ho was awakened by the shot, he
immediately jumped from his bed and in a
few seconds Mr. Uailey appeared nt his
window and told hiin for "God's sake to
get up, that Jackson was killed and the
stacks were on fire." TJic agent came out,
saw the woman running around, wounded,
and in night clothes, and hallowing for
Johnson. Uailey told the agent to "go for
help up tho creek to whero there wore some
cow boys camped, and get help, and he
would stay there and bathe tbe woman's
wound." In an hour or two, four men
camo to thojr assistance. Two shots were
fired at the book agent wjien he got a short
distance from tho houffc. Mrs. Jackson
states that, she saw two men leave while
she was up calling for Johnson. Bailey,
after assistance had been sent for, went
to tjio slack? and got (he boy out froni1' the
fire; and puileh the body of Johnson out of
danger This was the first that, he stated,
he knew Johnson was killed. lie then
went to the barn which was also on lire,
cut tho horses loose, got them ami 'some
harness out, and then went back to the
house and dressed Mrs. Jackson's wound,
The examination brought out nothing
that would lead to a conviction, bill tho
people of that vicinity suspicion and think
Bailey is tho piurdercr. This is also Mr.
Oaloway's belief, Mr. Bailey was through
that country, ho claims, looking up a mail
route from IJolso City to tho Harney Valley
country and had passed through there
about five weeks 'before. Was riding a horse
hired from a livery stable in Huntington,
whither ho went after tho examination.
Ho stated he would take his horse back to
Huntington and then he would go to Ba
ker City, but on arriving at Huntington,
ho took tho train, going eastward. The
axo with which Johnson was killed, was a
strange quo and did not belong to the place,
there being only three on tho place, which
the hoy procured. There aro some things
which Bcom to bo decidedly against Bailey,
while there aro other things equally In his
favor, The affair, however, is still shrouded
in mystery, but every pJPqrt Is bojng put
forth by the Baker county olllcors to get a
clue to the perpetrator.

Owing to the lotenest! of the season,
the influx to the piipes is not as good

The brilliant genius who presides
over tlio La Grande Argus, last week,
in an article relative td tho road from
this valley to the Pine oreek mines,
caps the climax, and unwittingly
places himself before tho poopio in
tho proper light, A column and a
quarter is devoted to berating the
Scow, and making the most wild
an,d unreasonable assertions. Among
otliors equally eilly, that "tbe mines
ai;e nearer Baker city than Union, apd
properly belong to Baker county,"
that "it would cost as much as the
county indebtedness noy, to build the
road, which would be of no benefit to
any placo- but -the town of Union,
when completed," that "tho 'trade of
Pine and Eagle valleys should go to
Bilker," etcoU". It is proper that
questions of this kind, especially
when of such importance to tho
county at largo, should bo discussed,
and viowd.in every light that can bo
thrown upon it, and it is the. duty of
public journais to do eo, in a dispas
sionate and impartial manner, over
looking to tlio general good. Tlio
Scout is always ready to discuss all
subjects pertaining to tlio public weal,
and will endeavor to do so in a ration
al manner,' but wo can enter into no
controversy with the editor of tho
Argus. It would lo a waste of timo,
and folly to do so. The Vidimus which
prompts his utterances is 'so apparent
that it needs no lefutal. Itath'er than
sec the town of Union benefitted in
the remotest degree, he would givo
away the piost vajuablo portion of the
county, and involvo' it iq financial
difficulties, which t would ta;e years
to overcome Against such prejudice,
unreasoning hatred, and recklessness
as ho displays, reason is of no avail.
Wo can only leavo hjm alone, fully
convinced that it is Iho unanimous
opinion of every sensible person, in
La Grande, as in every other suction
of tho county, that ho had bettor
move his press to Balcer city, and put
in his valuable services at that place
"Unco James," said a Portland
young lady, who waft spending a few

her inhabitants are wide-.iwnkc to her in

times in all tho ayenues of trade. She
makes no great bustle and nojsc in tio
world, but pursues tho even tenor pf her
way, ami thrift and business comes nrftu
ruily within her borders.
Union is ths county scat of Union coun
ty, and notwithstanding the great blow of
her would-be rivals, will continue to be
such its long as Union countv has a county
seat. She is probably in closer jiroximity
to the rine CrepU initios and that section,
by ten or fifteen miles, tlian liakct Cjty, as
the new road which will sonn'be construc
ted, i? only about ,"( miles, 'while the dis
tance from Baker City to the same section
is from 05 to "0 miles.
From almost her vpry door all along the
line oT the road leading to the Pfnc creek
country, are rich deposits of paying 'ire
which is bolng discovered nnd developed,
and are proving acquisitions of wealth to
the owners, Tlo inhabitants of Pino Val
ley havo been, uportnnatoly, shut ol)' from
their desired trading point on account of
the road running as it now does, and have
been forced to do their trading at Baker
City. This, they will not do ,n the future,
as they are all anxious to d(v their trading
at this point. Union will exert herself in a
legitininte manner to secure tl0 trade of
these mines, whoro it properly belongs.
She will do so intelligently, honprably, and
without deceit, nor will she endeavor to
hoodwink those who are investigating the
several routes from the O. H, it N, Co'si
road to tho mines. It is tho candid opin
ion of most men who have been at both
Baker City, and Union, that Union is the
moir naturally situated for a supply point
than the former i.laec. Many letters have
been received here, enquiring of tlio ad
vantaget of this place, and 'the reported
richness of the Pino Creek mines. Sliould
the Portland Board of Trade in its wisdom
select this as tho starting 'point to tho
mines from the west, Union would for out
strip, in importance, all other towns along
the liqppf (lie O. It. it N., butwhptbor this
place is selected or not, she will cpnMnuo
to thrive and grow in importance as an In
land town, and wjllidwqysattract her share
of (fie trade from whatever source it may
come. We feel confident of tho future im
portance of this place from the very fact of
her nearness to tho rich ditcovorics which
aro daily being made. ' '

The viewers of tho proposed new road
into the Pine Creek mines havo finished
their work, having been through to the
end of the. routo, ending at Cornucppia,
They had excellent weather and ip conse
quence too: all the time necessary tp thor
oughly look out tho best and most practi
cable route. Although they havo not yet
made an oHlctal report, thej-say they found
tho line of the road much better than they
had anticipated, and tho grado at no point,
except one, aul t))ot bpt a very short dis
tance, will exceed ten feet to tho hundred;
that tho cost will probably not reach very
far into (ho thousands. Tho Ijno of the
road runs nearly its chtlro length through
a rich minora! bolt, and is locoted on the
south side of all tho hills along which it
passes, which wil insure a good nnd open
road that will not bo obstructed by the
snows of winter sufllelent to retard traVcl
when once opened. The settlers along the
roail are anxious to navo mo roau mint
