En quit e at this oflice, Grande Hondo valley presents a beautiful appearance now. A new assortment of ladies dress goods just icceived at Saunders'- Jlowland fc Lloyd are putting up an addition to Miles Heard's residence. . Several families passed through Un ion, this week, en route for Hartley valley. The polilic.'.l atmosphere in not charged with electricity, to any great extent.

Swack humor, a son. 1 There will be two non judicial days this term of court. Decoration, and election day. Dr. Strange returned from his trip to Wallowa, last Tuesday, and is now to be found in his office. We forgot to mention, last, week, that Howlund it Lloyd were the build ers of Mr. Summers' fence. This office acknowledges a pleasant call from Mi'. D. D. Kagan.' general traveling agent for the- West Shore. Several communications received too late for this issue. Correspondent should send in their coinnJunications earlier. The owners of the. Whitman offer $150 an acre, to have ten acres of land, adjoining their mine, cleared of timber. Fruit trees are not so much injured by the recent frosts, as' was expected, and the yield will probably supply the demand. Every' farmer should take a look at those hay rickers on. exhibition by Mr. Marr. It is a machine every farmer needs. N. II. Orgreen conducted his own ride of the cae, in the case of W. fi.

The' gentlemen of Union have a yellow striped appearance, during the rage of 1 don't know what you call them, but they aro quite nobby. The Hepublicau Central Committee, last Saturday, nominated Win. T. JJurdette of Cornucopia, to (ill the vacancy occasioned by tho resignation of Hand. A brother of Louie Corbett arrived here, this week, from Cambridge, Ohio, lie will probably establish a cigar factory bomewherc in Union county, soon. The article on Union county, to be found on our editorial page is from the pen of Hrof. Tuttle, who ban our thanks for valuable assistance in get ting out the two last issues. L. J. House, candidate for county clerk, is foieman of the grand jury. We hourly expect to hoar that several of the opposing candidates have been indicted for politieafornibuggery. If Marshal fates would take nn occasional walk over in North Union, and look a little alter the stray hogs, the people of that section would be less annoyed, and he might leplcnish his funds tomcwlmt. Attorney Holman, of Haker, has a new pipe 'racket. He can mioko an ordinary pipe without any tobacco in it, and 'make the smoke rollout vol uminously. For ways that are dark and trick?, that arc vain, the average lawyer is peculiar. The ball given by the 1. 0. 0. F. last night in their hall in this city, was largely attended, neatly every section of the county being represented. It was a splendid affair, and we believe was a souice of unalloyed enjoyment to everyone in attendance. Mr. Samson, an English btock deal er, shipped from this place forty head of horses, and four mules, on Satur day last, and on Monday shipped twelve hundred head of cattle, 'pur chased of Mr. Shiiley. Ho will take them by rail to Hilcna, Montana, and drive them ftom there to Canada. The Union hate-bull club went to Haker city, bu t Sunday, and played a uia'ch game with the Haker boys. They were, as usual, badly beaten, but had' a good thin, and are lavish in their prawns of the manner in which they wuro entertained, and the court esie's extended to them. Should the naker boys sec fit to return? tho visit at any time, they will nuot witli a hearty welcome. The roail uiuoling which was called by order of tho Hoard of the Pino ureek mad, was an entir failure; as far as the presence of t,ubscrilors "d other eitisens were -concerned, exoept a few who went to tho court house, hut found tho door locked. This Was unfortunate, for it was necesrary that important buxinoa should have boeu transacted. It was at least very an noying to the Board. And our cry is Thaler, water. Hepublicau speaking to-nighl, Immigrant are beginning to arrive. Court is grinding out justice slowly. We vote one week from next Mon day. Smoke the "Conqueror," at Jones Bro's. Tho canvass ha? commenced In earnest, Decoration day the last day of this month. Shaw it McLeoid are pushing work rapidly on the Fine creek road. All kind? of paints, oils, glass and brushes at the Cove drug stare. Mitchell's Kidney Plaster for salo at Wright's drug store, Try it. Union presents a lovely appearance this week. Courting you know. Don't forgct the road meeting next Monday evening at Wright's hall. Ellhrts are being made to organize a .Mechanics Union at La Grande. There will be preaching at the Pres byterian ohurch, Hunduv, at 11 o'clock A. M. Smith it Hale have a Seven mile railroad contract, over in the Spokane country. The Fourth of July celebration com niittees are hard at work. We may expcot a good time Tho Teachers institute, for tho sixth judicial di-itriet, will he held in Pendleton on the 27th, 28th, 29th and 30th of December. There are a great many cases on the docket at this term of court. More, probably than will he disposed of. The usual number of grass widows will be made. Lo, the poor Hedman of the forcrt, has been in town, during the week, with hiit baud of pouies which he was disposed to part with for cash or the "skoohutn" tire water. We do not wish to go back to the time of freight wagons, but it really looks hotne-liko to see the great six and eight horse teams, with their mammoth wagons, passing through our streets. Mrs. Malson's little girl while swing ing, last Sunday, was thrown from the swing, and knocked senseless. Dr. , Cromwell was sent for and suc ceeded in bringing her to in the course of a half hour. Jesse Alberson, who came down from Pine Creek last Wednesday, says that Cornucopia is budding up rapid ly, and predicts that within three weeks it will be tho largest town in Union county. The jurymen, on .service, attorneys, anil officers of the court were served with fans, with which to cool their noble brows. If anyone in God's great universe should have any luxury given them, if certainly is. those who have to attend the tribunals of justice, during hot weather. Dr. Capps, of Albany, has perma nently located in this city, and opened an office adjoining Jones. Hro's store, where he may be found at all times ready to attend to those desiring his services, The doctor comes well recommended. Head his card, which appears in another column. Mr. J. F. Hall, father of the Hall HroH. of this city, accompanied by his daughter, arrived here from California, Thursday last, on a visit to tho boys. Mr. Hall will return to California in a few weeks, but it is the intention of Miss Hall to remain hero permanently. She will probably be employed as as sistant in tho postoflice. The republican county committee has made arrangements for "public speaking" at Cornucopia, Sparta, North Powder and La Grande. Un ion is left out, and our people will not be permitted to listen to the words of wisdom and patriotism which are lia ble to he heard at the speaking. We feci sad whenever we think of it. We are in receipt of an oxtreimsly well written, and pointed letter from Joseph, corncerning political matters, and the action of various candidates, which on the whole meets with our approval, but as we are not taking part in this campaign, to any consid erable extent, the. writer will excuse us for its non appearance in the Scout. We learn that Mr. Hunnett, road overseer of Indian valley precinct, got into a dispute with one of tho work men by tho name of Legore, on Satur day last, and while lying on the ground was assaulted and kicked in tho face in a most brutal manner. His injuries are extremely painful. Legore lit out and has not been heard of since. Tho scribe of tho Sentinel was mis informed, wheu ho stated, recently, that a dance was given at tho resi dence of Miss Miller, in this city. Tho party alluded to, was asocial gath ering of the friends of Miss Miller, and no dancing was indulged in. As the lady is very much opposed lo the Terpsichorean art, she requests us to make tho abovo correction. Sylvester Pennoyer, democratic nominee for Governor, and N. L. Hut lor, nominee for congress, addressed a large audience at the court house, last Thursday evening, and were listened to with marked attention. Hoth these men seem to bo conscientious, and no doubt would servo the people accepta bly in tho position to which they aspire. Frank Hro's Implement Co. have on hand a full lino of Farm Machinory and Implements, at Island Cityi which was received under the cut rates on freight, thus enabling them to give much lower priced than ever before. Full line of extras, for their lino of goods, always on hand, and every implement or piecu of ma chinery fully guaranteed. Give them a call before purchasing. -r m- rue Cree Mlnen, A gentleman who just wived in pur city a few days since, states answer to an in ouhvasto what was going on in the Pine i ("reck District, am' it tu tho richness of the mines says turn tno wenun oi toe I camp is nn aspired fact As fut. as .the ; snow disappear, tho owners of llio mines ' commence active development and are j working might and main to show up their 1 ueoverlcx in their true light. 'hrk on ' the "Whitman" mine is steadily progres , ing with the mo flattering prospects. Mr. ! Lure, niatingrr or operations is very san- jziiine us to the result of future explorations. A very rich hoiiv ore was struct u mu south' onil of the "Whitman" claim a few diivs before the gentleman left tho camp. It Is reallv the extension of the "Whitman ' load. hn outiide of its boundaries "The Allen ij Cox" mino is bcinc pushed forward to active development, mid only last week and exceeding rich strike whs made, All the prominent 'mines in the camp, of which so much was snid last fall in their prac-e. are keeping up their reputation even better than at that tlmv.

What lire YjU (JdiiiB U A meeting was elled by tho Pine creek road commissioners, tutukc plane on Mun day eveniuR last, at which, it was stated, important business would be transacted and a full attendance of all those interested in the road, was requeued. Tho time ar rived, and the coinmUoh'mers repared to the ball, but not nno'her man made his ap pearance. Now, we have this to nay, that the roiut is not completed by any means, and the amount already subscribed is about e.hatisttK.I. If the citizens of this city and valley desire to connect themselves with that portion of the road now bein: built by the state, and which will be finished in n few weeks, they will have to wake up and take some action in the matter. Tliu com missioners, and usneeially Mr. Carroll, win. deserves ri-cat credit for what he has done and is willing to do. feeling loth to drop the work at tnis st.ine of the game, have called another muetitij; to take place at Wright, s hall next .Monday evening at half past sev en o'clock, and if U Is the deslr-o of our citi zens to'havc the work continue, it will be hoove tin-in to attend the meotiug, but it they think they have ifol enough road, they can stav awa" and the work will be suspen ded. ' A. T. Nell. Vc acknowledge a pleasant visit from Mr. A. T. Neil, democratic nominac for county clerk, with whom we had a long talk on matters political, social and domes tic. We are ever ready to give credit where credit is due, and eatidOr compels iw to .say that our prcoiioeived notions of this gentleman, and the ideas which we believe nro entertained of him by many in thi section of the county, are 'entirely errone mis. Instead of being n reserved, exclusive Miib, we found him to hu a plain, modest, and iimissumlntr gentleman, whose eareei has been nlturil struggle against adversity.

Willlawn -MIhmk. We were shown this week, by Mr. M, R Legore, of Wallowa, some extremely rich specimens ol ore taken from the "Litte (Slant" and "Pine Leaf" tniiies, which are situated about three miles south "f Joseph. Various assays have been made, and those from 'he former runs I'roin-fii'l. to $!) to the ton, and the latter from $i"l. to t.r0. to the ton in gold. Tho snow has been too deep for much work to be done on the mines as yet, hut operations will commence now that the snow is about all gone, and the mines will be developed as rapidly as ponsi hie. Other locations iu the Wallowa prom ise to he extremely rich, and In all proba bility there will he almost as much of a boom there this summer, as in the Pine creek region. Kuril Otientlonn. Mil.
