This week, on account of the non-ar rival of our paper, the Scoi'T has, for the first time, tailed to come out promptly on time. The Chieftain says that Otto & Mo ICearns recently refused $1,000 for one of their silver locations, situated about three miles south of Joseph. A typographical error last week made us say that Dr. Strange, the den tist, would be in Stimmerville for two days, in the early part of March. He will be in Summerville ten days. Following is the list of grand jurors for the term of court now in session: John Elliot, J. W. Minniek, Calvin Nelson, Wm. Constable, Win, Shaw, Jr., T. R. Irwin and Bladen Ashby.

The county court last Week appoin ted legistration judges and clerks, and formed four new precincts, namely: Lost Prairie, Imnalia, Swamp Creek and Starkey. It also consolidated the precincts of Hilgard and Stuinptown into one, and reorganized the old pre cinct of Grande Rondo River, under the name of Camp Carson. We understand that the people liv ing in High Valley and the Park, aro anxious to go to work on the road from this city to the intersection of the Pine creek road, and aie waiting pa tiently for the commissioner's to move in the mutter. They are willing to put in work now", but will not do so la ter on. Now is the. time to commence. It seems that n number of horses in this section are atllieted with the 'blilVulo mange," and it is feared that the disease will spread. We have been informed by a number of stoek luen that if those parties owning horses that have the disease, do not keep them up, but persist in driving them on the streets, and turning them out on the- range, they will be pros ecuted. Wc were shown by uncle Miles .Uonnl, a specimen of marble taken froln his ledge, in Idaho, which is, we judge, of a tupcrior quality. The ledge is situated about sixty miles south-east of Shoshone. Mr. Beard will take his departure in a few days for the iedge, to commence work. Ho expects to have a mill for Working the htarhle, find the ledge fully opened Up, by tho llit of March.

Tho Literary Society will not meet next Monday evening, on account of court. 1 he Monday following, how ever, there will be an interesting meet ing. There arc onlv five saloons in Yam hill county, and in MoMinville, the principal town in the county, there is not a man who wants a public office of any Kind. Tho address of Joseph Monroe Cov ington, supposed to be at present some where in Oregon or Washington, is wanted at the office of the Mendocino, (Cal.,) Beacon. It is reliably stated, savs tho Chief tain, that there are 20,000 sheep in the allowa this spring, and estimated that before another year there will be 100,000, as several largo bands Will be brought in this season. The principal amusement of Baker- ltes now is cock fighting. They have sent up to Boise City for a game roos ter, whose reputation has spread abroad as a pugilist, and are going to put him against Hardy's champion bird. There is a Chinaman in San Fran cisco by the name of Gin Fun. The joke on his name is tho fact that he advocates prohibition of "Chinese cheap labor." He has joined the anti Coolie league and lias placed over his Washee-housodoor: "The Chinese must go! None but Melican man employed here. lion. W. A. J. Sparks, General Land Conmissioner, says that where actual settlers have communed home steads according to a decision of a former commissioner, he will allow thu title to rest undisturbed. No doubt where honest, actual intention on the part of the settler is shown, there will be no trouble to perfect titles. A new counterfeit dollar has made its appearance lately in the Willamette valley, and is one of the best ever seen. It bears the date of 1885, San Fran cisco mint, and has the genuine ring. Experts think tho dollar is made of silver, alloyed with glass and bell met al.

A correspondent writing from Cornuco pin. to the Baker SaRe ltrush says: "I n dentaiid tlmt a meeting of the citizens of North Powder and Kaglo valley has been held to take stops to divert the course of otir new road in favor of their own local! tics. WJiile such a change would undoubt edly benefit them and the agricultural in tcrcs-tsof their valleys, the mines and min ing interests of Kagle and Pine Creek dis tricts would naturally suffer by such a changc.7aml it was for the special benefit of theso latter interests only that the appro priatiou was made by the State, and I ex press tho unanimous protest of all miners of these districts against nny snch contem plated change. The assertion that it will tic impossible to keep the new road open in winter, on account of deep snow, is but Idle and egotistic talk, and has been practically disposed this winter by the facility with which the road between Cornucopia and Pine valley has been kept open, notwith standing six fect of mkw and the hunted travel, which can be tafoly estimated at ten times its present volume another season. 1 hould think the difference of present and former prices these ranchmen have been receiving for their produce through this camp .hould stimulate their energy and wake them up from their Itip Van Winkle sleep to some independent action, and cease their endeavors to destroy or hinder a source of their material benefit". ttnlon l.ltfiary Society. The society on last Monday evening was usually well attended, and good order was maintained. The debate on the land tax ation question Was quite interesting to many. A committee of five, consisting of M. F. Davis, J. 11. Carroll. Julius bevy, Mrs. J, 11, Eaton and Miss Susie Moore, were appointed to arrange for an enter tainment. The Society will not meet again until .March 1, 1Sm. The litercry ciUrcises were as follow: Instrumental duet, by Messrs. Cooper and Lloyd; recitation. "Out of the fire."

Johnston as incorpora tors. Object, to construct and operate a toll road through Wallowa canyon, four teen miles, in Union county. Principal office at Cnion; Capital stock 10,C00, in 100 shares. Interviewing one of the incorporators concerning the above, wc gather the fol lowing information: He said that upon investigation of the lnatter, thev had be come aware of the fact that there never had been a legal road of any kind, through the Wallowa canyon ; nnd as other parties in the interest of railroad capitalists wore ina king preparations to lay a toll road there, they made haste to incorporate, lie said he believed Ihc people of Wallowa, gencr ally, were favorable to a toll road, as they had found it Very hard to keep tho road in a passable condition! and would rather pay a small toll than bo hdthcred with working on it. Work will be commenced shortly, and the road put in good condition. The toll they propose to charge for a wagon ami span ot nor.sci, is im cts., anil every thing else in proportion. We do not know how this move will strike the people of tho Wallowa. The first intimation anyone in this section hd of this affair was the above item which appeared in the Orcfronian. Troulilto Abend. A Washington dispatch of thd 10th inst. says : Land Commissioner Sparks sent pa pers to-day to Secretary Lamar in regard to timber depredations by Daniel Chaplin, of La Grande, Oregon, and roeouimeilded that both Criminal and civil suits be brought against him. Chaplin oohfractfcd with the Oregon ItaihVay & Kavigatlon Co, to sup ply timber find trees for construction of tho road from Meachnin creek to Union. Chap lain built nine sawmills along the line and cut 8,093,200 feet of timber on government land and on the Umatilla reservation, The report to Lamar. states that In the process of cutting timber 8!i2,000 fee, wtrd wasted.

Union county, at the present dav takes the lead in miuerals, and bids fair to be tho richest section on the Pacific coast in the near future. V on- derful discoveries have never been made known to the public. Discoveries in placer have recently been made on Snake river, bv bowler and Neuncr, of Cornucupia, that bids fair to prove valuable. The Whitman and Allen & Cox mines, located near Cornucopia, and many others, are surprisingly rich in gold and silver. Simmons it Co., of Union, also have very fine ledges of gold and silver some three miles north of Cornucopia tine in particular, being worthy of no tice. They aro down on it to the depth of 80 feet, and the rock assays on an average $ 1 0.10 per ton. Then in traveling south-west some 1.1 miles, we come to another mineral belt, in which aro located the mines of Brown, O'Connor & Co., which are composed of gold bearing quartz that assays from !f3.r) to $75 per ton. (free milling.) I heir main ledge is 12 inch es wide, and located within one mile of the new road survey. J. B. Fewel and K. W. Makinson also found some nice looking quartz veins near the Brown it Co. ledges, lato lust fall, but did not prospect them much as they were covered with snow shortly after being found. Beeves it Holcomb havo three good ledges near Eagle creek, and some 12 or 1J miles north of Eagle Vullev These gentlemen feel confident of suc cess, and will commence work on them carlv in the stirinir. Sp;uta, and old and once forsaken niiiiing camp, is reviving again, and some rich quartz discoveries have re cently been made there. Of tho num ber, we will name the discovery made by Mrs. AinsWorth, the richest of all. It appears that Mrs. Ainsworth hud tried to persuade her husband to pros pect that certain place for some time, but he thinking it no better than where be was working, refused to do so. Mrs A. decided to trace the iloat a little farther and then dig for the precious metal herself, and in a short time af ter she commenced the search. She was rewarded by finding several pieces of rock on some loose dirt that a go pher hud ejected from his hole in the ground. On clo.-e inspection she saw shining Specks of gold. 11ns encour aged her old inan( and hound his part ner speedily enlarged the gopher hole, and consequently have the richest of all finds in Union county. They are down on tho ledge some 55 or GO feet, and the rock is, if unvtlnngi richer than at first. McGee and Davis also havo some good ledges located near the Ainsworth find. Milt. White, of tho "Lilly White," is so well pleased with its prospects that he will erect a mill early in tho spring It is located between tho Ainsworth and Ilogem. Clough it Duncan, of tholnttes pluco, have u very rich nunc, from which they have taken out !f 10, 000 or $50,000 in the last five years, with an arastra. Cilitts. Pine Valley Pickings.
