Distinocishkd VisiTon. We had
the pleasure of a visit last Monday
from Mr. A. McKinley. Mr. McKin
lev was for many years one of the prin
cipal merchants of this place, in fact of
the State, and a pioieer of Oregon City.
Jle now resides witn ins lanniy some
four hundred miles north of Victoria,
in British Columbia. He was much es
teemed bv all our old settlers and his
present visit is the first for twelve
v;ars. He notes numerous changes in
cur place, and misses many of the old
uioneers who formerly resided here.
aonie having gone to other places,
while a numler have pased away. On
Wednesday afternoon a banquet was
uriven him at the Clitr House, at which
several of the. old pioneers were pres
rut. and a most pleasant time was had
Short addresses were made, bringing
back to memory many of theold scenes
which surrounded the early history o
this place, and after spending a couple
of h-Mirs over a most splendid dinner
the company dispersed highly gratified
at having had the privilege of enjoying
the pleasure of meeting one who is so
highly respected by his former fellow
citizen-.
Important Cask. The time of the
Circuit Court was occupied from Thurs
day until its adjournment on last .Sat
urday with the case of the W. R. C. A L.
Co. vs. John Jordon. The ease was a
vcrv iiiiMrtant one, and puts to rest
tlie'pretcnsions some people have made
to th ownership of the island omositu
this place, and, in fact, deckles the
validity of the entire property of the
Lock Company. The case was ably
managed by Senator Kelly, Messrs.
Thompson, Durham it Hill for the
Company, and Messrs It. Williams and
W. ('. .Johnson for the defendant. This
s iit ercw out of the fact that James M.
Moorjdot-s not realize th-t the prop
erty of K ilMTt Moore, his father, has
hern sold toother parties, and he leased
llii- islaivl to John tiordon; but the
j-.iry concluded that the property had
nnssfd beyond the jurisdiction of the
Sloore family, and that the Lock Co.
u-;s tlic real owner of the island. Had
the case been decided against the Com
pany, i! would have - impaired the title
to the entire property, but this verdict
puts an end to the q iestion.

The Grand Lodge was most cordial
ly received by the Governor of State
and Mayor of Indianapolis, Senator
Morton and ex-Vice President Col
fax. The entire delegation from Or
egon was present, and attended to
the interests of this jurisdiction. A
resolution was adopted placing Van
couver Encampment No. 1, at Vic
toria, under the jurisdiction of the
Grand Encampment of Oregon from
and after the 1st of January, 1876.
As to the matter of changing the
location of Mountain Lodge in Idaho,
it was decided that the action of the
Grand Lodge of Oregon was proper
and needed no action from the G. L.
IT. S. In regard to opening the
question of jurisdiction of adjacent
territory, the Judiciary committe re
ported that further legislation on the
subject was unnecessary, and the re
port was adopted.
This includes about all the legis
lation relative to this jurisdiction.

The Great Anti-Periodic.
The certainty and promptitude with
which Hostetter's Stomach Bitters con
quer the most obstinate cases of mala
rial disease, and the complete protec
tion which they afford the system
against the miasmatic poison which im
pregnates the air of low-lying,- marshy
localities, stamp them as the foremost
of American antiperiodics. Wherever
on this continent fever and ague is a
regular visitant in the bottom lands
of the South, the new clearings and
mining districts of the West, and in all
localities in the Eastern and Middle
States where malaria prevails, the Hit
ters are recognized as the only true spe
cific for the disease, and its most relia
ble preventive. They are, moreover, a
safe and agreeable as well as a certain
remedy, and on this account are im
measurably superior to the preparations
of quinine, arsenic, bismuth, and other
mineral poisons mistakenly adminis
tered as curatives for maladies caused
by miasma, and which if persisted in
work irreparable injury to the consti
tution.
Unfortunately, fever and ague, and
the other febrile complaints generated
uy miasma, are not tneoniv evus wnicn
result from it. A great variety of dis
orders are superinduced by the irrita
tion which it causes. Among these are
neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, periodi
cal headache, palpitation, painful atlecr
nous oi mo spleen, and various ae
rangements ot the stomach. When
traceable to malaria, the above atrec
tions are apt to assume, like the disease
wnicn originatea mem. an intermittent

lar intervals, llostetter's liitters, how
ever, obviates them all. by banishing

At this season of the year, when so
many of our people are suffering from
colds, we call attention to Ajrer's Cher

coughs and colds, but all affections of
the lungs and throat. Having used it
in our family for many years, we can
sneak Irom Wrsonal knowledge of its
efficiency. There may be other reme
dies that are good, but in all our exje-
rienee tnis has proved to bo by far the
best. Its qualities are uniform and
wholly reliable. It is pleasant to take.
