i THE OREGON SCOUT. AMOS K. JONF.N. KM r:;. The Oregon Scout hu as tardea circu lation as any three j)ajrs in this sec tion of the State, combined, and is cor respondingly valuable as an advertising medium. MVidav, March 2nd., 1888. Union nittl Vicinity. Thejjhcalth of tho city is imprOYinjr. Council meeting to-morrow niglit at prompt 7 o'clock. If vou want to sell vour farm, placo it with J. E. Tuttle. Vendleton has boon considering a plan to "boom" hcisclf. Mrs. Chan, ratten, of Snmmbrville, died on Thursday of last week. Stop that cough by taking lied Star Cough Cure, at Wright's drug store. New lino of dress goods just recoived at Jo. Wright's, consisting of all the latest patterns. The mortgage bank has had tlio "" . y j 1 v" front windows. ISTow is the chosen time. Pay that old account at the Covo drug store wnn ntmk"' i rn v iminri.il nn lr.H ami be happy ever after. n.o East rortland reduction works mill probablj' bo removed across Iho t river, .avs tlie Minnay star. Jtemcmbcr tho Board of Trade meet ing at tho court house to-morrow night at 7 :C0 o'clock, and all come out. Many of our citizens have been taking advantage of the late fine weather, and cleaning up their yards. Wo acknowledge the receipt of a neat map of California and Nevada, from the office of tho San Francisco Call. Considerable inquiry has been made of late about town property in Union, and before Fall we may expect many changes. The social dance at Davis' hall will be given next Friday evening tho 9th. instead of the loth of March, as sta ted last week. See ad. The small boys are beginning to talk baseball, already, and we may ex pect to note "accidental hits" on un lucky shins, in tlio future. I Advertise your town well if yon wish it to draw home and business seekers Don't wait for foiuc one else . to do it but do it yourselves. Look out for Lew's spring stock of clothing soon to arrive. lfe always carries the largest and best assortment of any merchant in Union county, and in quality and prices lie cannot be beaten. We would call .the attention of our readcis Co tho professional card of T. I II. Crawford, which appears in this issue. All business entrusted to Mr. Crawford Avill receive his prompt at tention. Several now locations have been made in the Pino creek district, lately, which are showing up in good shape. Th is is bound to be in the course of time one of the richest camps on tho Pacific coast. Bead the advertisement of Miss Linda Mathieus, dressmaker, which will be found in another column. Slio koines well recommended, and all , work entrusted to her will receive her best attention. March came in in quite a docile and domesticated state, but if she don't butt the lamb outside of tho cor ral and let old Leo roar befoio she turns the weather over to April, wo Ehall be well satisfied. Pendleton impounds cows found foraging in the streets at night time, and ifl.fiO is required to get them out. It wouid not bo a bad idea to do liko wiso in Union, for the cows roaming , around at night is a nuisance. Our streot lamps should be lighted now as soon as it is dark, as the moon rises later every evening, iveop our lamps trimmed and burning. It makes our city have a better appear ance to strangers who may visit us, and wo like it better. A purgative medicine hould possess tonic and curative, as well as cathar tic properties. This combination of ingredients may bo found in AyerV Pills. Thoy strengthen and stim ulate the bowels, causing natural ac tion. The Pendleton paper mill project seems to be in a state of suspense. The cost of machinery and heavy freight rates make it cost several thousand dollars moro than was expected, and in viow of this fact men are not coining to tho front very fast in taking stock. It might bo well for nimrods and anglers to remember that tlio timo for fishing with hook and lino in our streams has not yot passed the inter diction of legal restraint, and will not until April 1st. It will also bo well to reniembor that Oregon has a law in rt&ard to tho killing of game. It would bo a good idea for tho coun cil to instruct the street commissioner 'to drive tho middle lino of nails in our sidewalks down at least on a level with the boards. In many places the nails nro sticking up a half inch or more, much to the discomfiture of pedes trians. In many places tho side walks need repairing, and it should bo done. Mr. Z. A. Tucker, constable of Cor- nucopm precinct, cauio m Wednesday evojng, and gave us a pleasant call. HeThowed us some nice tecimeiui of oro from tho "Whitman," Ked Jcket" and "Last Chance" mines which were voryfmo. llosavsDr. Howard, own er of tho "Last Chance" mine, wiU toon commence work on hi claim, which is vary rich.

The Bod nnd Gun Club will meet before long and ciTect a permanent or ganization for the eeason, and will then probably take measures to protect game and fish. For tho past few sea sons the saw dust from the saw mills on the creeks has been emptied into the streams, in consequence of which tho rish have been gradually decreas ing their run in the creek. To litis end mill men will prabably be asked to des-ist from allowing their saw dust to be emptied into tho streams. This as nothing more than right, and we believe the mill men will cheerfully comply. PATENTS GRANTED To citizens of tho Pacific States du ring tho past week, and reported ex pressly for the ("k'oiiT, by C. A.

Quito a nutubor of the young men of Union met at the Band hall last Monday evening, and the matter of forming a State militia was thorough ly discussed, pro and con. A majori ty of those present were in favor of tho move, and after a few preliminary ar rangements the meeting adjourned until to-night, to meet at Wright's hall. Let everyone interested in the matter be present, so that a permanent organ ization may be effected without delay.
