Mr. James Dolan, while in tho per formance of his duty, was thrown soino twenty feet from a trestle work, receiv ing .t very painful though not danger ous shock to his system. The ellicicnt working of our depart ment is deserving of the highest praise. Working under peculiar disadvantages, the energy, good judgment and cour age displayed were all the more notice able ami all the more commendable. The employees of the Oregon City Woolen mills are deserving of mention for the assistance which they gave to wards the extinguishment of the lire. It is safe to predict the early resump tion of these, now destroyed, industries. The CJold Medal. Oregon City got away with the gold medal for the finest display of Alden dried fruit, much against the wishes of several coin pot ing companies. That the display was tho best, we presume none who saw it will deny. That it was tho most artistically arranged, thero can be no question, and that Clackamas county can equal, if not riuriiass, any county in tiie State in fruit, has been a long conceded point. Then there is no good reason why the medal should not have been awarded to the Oregon City Company, lint had any of our neighbors been successful, , we should not have bad any disposi tion to com plain. We believe that the people care but little for localities, and we see no reason for a display of any jealousy in this matter. Ihit it seems that some, persons regard it as ire fiiimptioiis on the part of Oregon City to even offer to compete, and w hen tho medal was awarded, their disgust knew no limit; and we have seen several newspaper llings which an; no credit to their authors. ThoOregon City com pany take a pride in this matter, ami no line will question their right to the premium. M rs. C. McCue, Mrs. Pyle, Sirs. M dine and others, deserve spe cial credit, as well as Mr. Pyle, tho Su perintendent, for the taste and judg ment displayed in arranging the "fruit, and while the report is being circulated that the fruit was borrowed from Cali fornia for the occasion, for the purpose of injuring the Oregon City company, we can assure t hem that such was not the fact. Tuc Company have a thou sand cases of just such as was exhibit ed ready for market, and they are . ycr riwly to enter into honorable and fair cuiuj'ctition with otht-r factories. Peg vjiiv tor Oregon City. A correspondent from Sn 1 v writes: "Ilisniy duty to chronicle s sad ci. cutnstaiice which has happened in our mid; , nartakinir m its lcit'.ire some- what of the barbaric institutions of Inn.; am. It is in bri-'f as follows: To the wife of G Vi , a short tim; sinee, was born a child, through care l'ss accident at seven months, 'brought into this world la-fore its time,' it nev ertheless lived, but required the most tender care and constant attendenoe. On S.iturday the child took sick and no hopes were 'entertained for its recovery, lint notwithstanding its critical condi tion, friends and relatives all partici pated in a dance that eveninz, next door; and there, while the mail dancers urged to an I fro to the wild music, the spirit of the little unfortunate took its flight, leaving nothing but a lifeless corpse as a reminder of the wicked ness and want of respect to those whose duty it was, at least to hive done what was in tlieir power, to save it. Did the da-ice stop niter that? No. For two long hours they still kept up the un ceasing tread, and not till alter mid night did the last of the littU child's relations leave the ball room. Pnr.iwniNo for W.n. Tho Alden Fruit Preserving Company at Oregon City is busy preparing samples of their work for the Estate fair. Supercnten tendent Pyle intends to get away with that gold medal. Kntkupiuse. Well, lerhaps he will, and then perhaps be won't. Superintcntendent McL' Pat ton, of the Salem Alden Company, is also on the war path, and will have specimens of his work n the pavilion. Statesman. It will do you no good to quarrel about it, and for fear you will tight, we will state that it is recorded that the Fruit Drying establishment at Albany will have the medal. ltegister. On Thursday a telegram was received by one of the stockholders of the Ore gon City Fruit Drying Company to (he effect that this city had been awarded the gold medal, aiid in all probability would also receive a special premium for the surpassing excellence of its dis play.

Baker county warrants sell at 70 and 75 cents on the dollar. o Jackson county people carried off some of the important premiums giv en by the Siokivou (Cul.) county fair. The Mountaineer mentions the dis covery of rich fiold and silver mines in the Caseaile mauntains. Wasco county has taxable property greater in value this year than last by 273,517, according to the assess ment roll. Since the work of distributing the mail along the Columbia river, by route agents, every point on the way within sixty miles of Astoria is sup plied with a daily mail. There is a "Charley lioss" excite ment at Forest Grove. The boy is supposed to be in Portland. A man named Ivory has been ar rested in Baker City suspected of having appropriated to his own use $1,000 entrusted to his care. A letter from Jlarrisburg to the Demo'int say: Two of our most prominent citizens, S. and D., sent east for a fnlhblooded Angora buck, valued at j?o00. On arrival of the cars considerable excitement prevail ed, caused by the appearance of the $')'.) buck. Ho wa taken to pasture and watched with great cue, but imagine the surprise of the owners when he was found to be a wether. The New York Sm says sheep raising lias paid better m Walla Walla and Umalilla counties, Oregon, than any other enterprise. There are now over 200,000 head of sheep graz ing there, worth from $2 50 to 3 per head. The statistics reported by the As sessor of Jackson count are as fol lows: liusliels 'of wheat, l'i'J.GSl); barley, 42,.)So; rve, 2,810; corn, 2b- 5'J8; potatoes, 18.51)1); apples, D.011; tons of hay, 8,8(55; pounds of wool, IM.rjoT; ounces of gold dust, 4,403'; pounds of tobacco, P.)l; feet of lum ber, 125.870; pounds of cheese, G. l'JG ; butter, G0,5b:. Some English railroad magnates are in Portland. They came from Ottawa, in the interest of the Cana dian Pacific railway. Mr. Saturley, who lives six miles west of Portland, has raised 400 bushels of potatoes on one acre of land. The potatoes average 30 to the bushel Who can beat it? The race horse Tw-nty-One has been sold for 400, to Gon. Miller of Salem, and Ben Snipes of Wasco county. Our Celestial inhabitants are send ing home hundreds of thousands of dollars. The College Club of Salem is the champion base ball organization of the State. About 819,300 were the receipts of the State fair. The Benton Democrat says: The bulk of the wheat crop is now stored and some idea can be formed of the amount of surplus grain in the coun ty. The warehouses in this city are tolerably well filled. The Farmers' warehouse has 30,400 bushels of wheat and 2,500 bushels of oats; Cauthorn has iu his house 35,400 bushels of wheat, GOO of oats and 3,000 of barley, and Hamilton Bros, have perhaps as much as both the other houses. The Boonville ware house has some 40.000 to 50,000 bushels of wheat, and a large quan tity is still held in the hands of the farmers. It is claimed that farming land is cheaper in Curry county than in any other county in the State, and that plenty of it can be had, under the homestead law, for tho taking. The retort at the Nonpareil cinna bar mines, Douglas county, is about up, and work will be commenced on ?, the 25tlK Jt ia expected that 2o0 pounds of metal per dav will be produced.

The prospects are favorable for a new errist mill on Elk creek near .urain s, an improvement much needed. The grain warehouses in Lane Co. are all crowded full. TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. Sax Pkaxcisco, Oct, 16. The 1 alace Hotel was formally opened to the public this evening, and is now thronged with sightseers. Philadelphia, Oct. 1G. The Lnion League, to-night by G44 yeas to 4o nays, sustained the committee of sixty-two in refusing to endorse four Republican candidates for city officers. The balloting lasted two days, closing to-night at 10 p. m. New; Yoiik, Oct, 10. The Prohi bitionists, in session here this even ing, nominated the following State ticket: Secretary of State, G. B. Du senberry; Comptroller, Alphonso Hopkins; Attorney General, Elliott Marsh; Treasurer, Stephen B. Avers; State Engineer and Surveyor, Geo. A. Dudley; Canal Commissioner, Ira Bell; State Prison Inspector. J. B. Gibbs. Chicago, Oct. 1G. A Washington special says the first business trans acted by the President upou his ar rival was the signing of a huge mass of documents which had acovimulat ed during his absence. Then the Mississippi troubles were discussed. Attorney General Pier pont relieved the mind of the admin istration by informing its head that all advices received from that State re2resented peace and order prevail ing, with the prospect that no fur ther trouble was anticipated. Then followed a discussion with reference to the successor of Secreta ry Delano. This continued up to the hour of adjournment, some time after two o'clock. Attorney General ment that no successor has been de- j termined upon nor would thero be j until next week, lho impression is j that tho successor has been decided j upon so far as the cabinet is concern ed that is, that the place has been tendered to somebody, and he has not yet had time to reply or is hold ing ii, under advisement. There is a well-grounded rumor that ex-Senator Chandler is the coining man. He is here to-night closeted with Assistant Secretary Cowan. To add to the significance of this is the fact that he arrived here with the President this morning. It is held by those who incline to the belief that Chandler is the man, that he is a lirst-class polit ical manager, and the one who, witli the prestige of a cabinet position to assist him, will prove of incalculable benefit to the party with which he is affiliated. Others hold to the con clusion that Judge Alfonso Taft, of Ohio, can have the vacant place if lie desires. Secretary Bristow is of tho opinion that he can now, at an early day make an arrangement for the success ful placing of the 8300,000,000 4 per cent, bonds. He construes the result in Ohio as sure to give increas ed confidence to United States secu rities in Europe. Had the policy of inflation been indorsed in Ohio by a respectable majority, he was appre hensive that a difficulty jnight have ensued in negotiating the loan, even if he could at the present time place it all. The comments of the foreign proas, reported by cable, seem to bear out his conclusions in this re spect. Washinotox, O't. 1G. Ex-Senator Pease'had a long interview to-day with the President on the Mississippi subject, including the causes of the difficulties, the present condition of affairs, and the remedies. The Presi dent talks freely, and said he was much gratified that the two political parties had affected an amicable ad justment, by which a fair election would be held and peace maintained within the State. Efforts have here tofore f:on made by Senator Bruce and friends for the removal of four Federal officers in Mississippi, but Pease has assured him that no re moval would be made in that State for mere partisan reasons. . Attorney n - t- l t 1 i t. General Pierrepont assured him that none coming under ins department, would be disturbed. The director -general of the Cen tennial has suggested to the Secreta ry of the Interior the propriety of providing for a representation at the exhibition of those organizations formed during the late war for the purpose of mitigating the sufferings of the sick and wounded on the bat tle field. The attorneys for E. L. Lewis, trustee for Jay Cooke fc Co., have brought suit against General F. S. Dent for 87.5G7, loaned him by Jay Cooke fc Co. beforo they became bankrupt. Wm. Bagley, of Oregon, is ap pointed Agent atSiletz Agency, Ore gon; David W. Eichtenthaler, of Oregon, ltegister of the Land Office, at La Grande, Oregon. Pokt Jekvis, X. Y., Oct. 17. The first snow storm of the season in this section occurred last night. Snow fell at Cocohocton, on the Erie rail way, growing heavier further west. At Susquehanna, Perm., it was five iuches deep. A severe gale also vis ited this section last night, npi-oot-ing trees and damaging buildings. London, Oct. IS. The Murk Lane Express, in its review of the corn market, says that in consequence of recent heavy rains seed time is prom ising, but the dampness has affected most of the new crop. Large for eign arrivals have checked the up ward tendency in price, but holders are still indisposed to make any con cession. Trade is therefore inactive. At Paris prices are rather lower, while in France wheat is steady and dearer. Belgium is unchanged; Hol land is firmer; Germany steady and inactive; Odessa firm. Averages are Is 2d higher, the bulk of that sold being fully 3s inferior in price to the previous crop. Memphis, Oct. 19. A treaty of peace has been agreed upon by the whites and blacks of Mississippi. New York, Oct. 19. A special to the Sun. from New Haven reports that a procession of Ovid Fellows en campment of Connecticut, and invit ed encampments from Providence, are insulted and pelted with stones by students as they passed Yale Col lege, and charged upon the students with drawn swords. Several stu dents were slightly woundeJ. The faculty have expressed regret at the unfortunate occurrence. XOTICF.-Another lot of new Goods ar rived at I. Selling's by last steamer.

It is reported that be fore Hill came out for Warren in the Oregonian, lie got a promise that he was to have Warren's support for the Senate next fall. As soon as Warren made this promise, tho Oregonian was his organ and the Bulletin went un der. Things look as though there is some truth in this report. Will Independents . give themselves over to such trading? Hill may find next year that Warren has no influence to give him, and that his treachery will be but poorly paid. - To vote for Warren is to vote for an endorsement of the third term and Radicalism. The C;reat Anti-I'eriotlic. The certainty and promptitude with which Hosteller's Stomach Hitters con quer the most obstinate cases of mala rial disease, and the complete protec tion which they afford the S3'.stem 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 ami mining districts of t he West, and in all localities in the K astern and Middle States where malaria .prevails, the Bit ters are recognized as the only true sje cillc for the disease, and Its most relia ble preventive. They are, moreover, a safe anil 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 by miasma, are not theonly evils which result from it. A great variety of dis orders are su peri tiduced by the irrita tion which it causes. Among these are neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, periodi cal headache, palpitation, painful allcc tions of the spleen, and various de rangements ot the stomach. When traceable to malaria, the above affec tions are apt to assume, like the disease which originated them, an intermittent type; that is to say, they recur at regu lar intervals, llostetter's bitters, how ever, obviates them all, by banishing the miasmatic virus from the system. The Word "Sozodont," Which has already become a household word, is derived from the Creek, and composed of two words, Sozo and Odontes. "Sozo" translated, means to preserve, and "(Klontes" tho teeth "SOZODOXT" a preserver of the teeth. And it is true to its name. It beautifies and preserves the teeth, hardens and invigorates the gums, and corrects all ; impurities of the breath.
