Wells, Fargo & Co. hare re-established their office at Aurora. Mr. D. P. Thompson returned trom Washington last week.

Mr. Thos. Killin, from Liower Molalla, called last Monday. He says the Repub licans of his section are entirely satisfied with the ticket, and are prepared to give a solid vote in June. John M. Gearin has been nominated by the Democrats for prosecuting attorney of this judicial district. John is one the boy., but he is on the wrong ticket, and wo are sorry to say he is doomed to go up Salt creek. From all parts of the county reports are received that the farmers are busy putting in their crops, and that the acreage will be largely in excess of any former vear. A large amount of land has been cleared in the past year, and sown in grain. Mr. C. T. Liocey, formerly of Clackamas county, has lieen nominated for county commissioner by the Republicans of Baker county. Cvms is well qualified for the Klace, and if he was running on his native eatli we would go our pile on him, but Baker smells too strong of Bourbon. W. W. Carr, of Oswego dropped into our Ranctum on Monday and informed us that Oswego is well pleased with the Repub lican nominees, and that we can expect a handsome majority for the entire ticket. Wallace is a wheel horse Republican, and he is pretty well posted. Jasper Slover has adorned the school house at Mt. Pleasant with a coat of paint, which makes quite an improvement in the looks of tho building. Jasper is a first rate hand with the brush and his work gives uives general satisfaction.

It has been satisfactorily demonstrated to the skeptical that the regular Chinook sal mon aeceiid the Clackamas in sufficient numbers for propagation purposes, and the only thing wanted now is more mon ey to place the propagation scheme on a Mire footincr. A liberal amount has been sabscribed or the purpose, but it is not sufficient to earry the enterprise during the coming season, and Interested parties should give a helping hand without delay. Prof. Stone gives the following estimate for the present season at the fishery : Ham across the river, $1,000; fishing expenses, SaOO: takinsr esrtrs aud hatching: voung sal mon, $1,000: incidentals, $1,000; salary of superintendent, Alr.lluboard.M.OOO ; total, $4.;00. This estimate is made for a small scale of operations, say three or four mil lion salmon, and he estimates that it will cost one thousand dollars for every addi tional million, l'rof. stone is now in the east, and is using every endeavor to secure an appropriation of $5,000 from Congress for this enterprise. In a letter to the pres ident ot tne ish Propagation tx.. ne says : ''I still have the utmost confidence in the location of the fishery, and I feel sure that it wilt vindicate itself triumphantly over. an criuciszas, 11 no accident happens, in the course of three years. It is bound to be the largest salmon breeding location in the world at the end of that time. The run of salmon in the Clackamas will not be large until the Oregon legislature has met and passed the requisite laws for their protection, when you will have fish in abundance." A Candidate for Shkriff. Mr. M. G Wills, formerly of this county, but now of v asbington county, has been in town the past week. Mr.Wills has been nominated by the Democrats of Washington county for sheriff. He is well qualified for the office and would fill the position with credit to himself and his party, and we are sorry mat ne is not the llepublican nominee, as then his election would be assured. We will wager the beer, not withstanding, that he will poll a laree vote, and not be very far In the rear of his opponent when the vote is counted. Mil, liner Y Goods. Miss Rosa Fuchs has received a large stocK of millinery goods, of the latest styles and varieties, and the ladies of Oregon Cltr and vicinity are invited to call and see for themselves Miss Fuchs is determined to keep as fine an assortment in quality, if not in quantity, as can be found at Portland. Her stock 'is suited to the wants of all both in prices and styles. Laying of a Corner Stone. Although the weather was very stormy, quite a large number of persons gathered at Canemah to witness the beautiful and impressive ceremony of laying tho corner stone of St. raul s mission chapel. Jiesiues the Bis h on of the diocese, there were present, taking pari in me services, wie ifev..iessrs.i'iunv mer, Rosenberg, J. R. W. Sellwood, and the Rector of St. Paul's Church, in this citv, under whose supervision the erection of this chapel has been undertaken. At i the close of the ceremony Bishop Morris made an address.which was shortened by the gathering storm, setting forth the pur noses for which the building about to be erected was to be set apart. It was a clear practical address, ana we only regret that the storm brought it to such a speedy close. in the stone were uepositeti me ioj lowing documents : A copy of the Holy Scriptures, a copy of the Book of Common Prayer, the Oregon Churchman of March 21, 1S7S, two pastoral' letters, one of July 1, ls73,and the other of July 1, 1874, from" the Rev. John w.5eiiwood to St. Paul s. congregation, Oregon City, Oregon; the Oregon City Knterprise of April II, 1878, tho Daily Oregonian of April 11, 1878, the Daily Stan dard of April 11, 1878, a list of the present Rector, Wardens and Vestrymen of St. Paul's Church, Oregon City, Oregon, the Pacific Churchman of March 28, 1878, a copy of the Journal of Convocation for the year 1877. The Rev. Mr. Sellwood desires to return thanks to Mrs Jerome for the use of the organ, to Mrs. Lazelle, the car penters, mason and others for many kind nesses shown to the Bishop and clergy. Retireo from Active Service. Last Friday morning, in St. Paul's Church, this city, after the litany service and peniten tial prayers, Bishop Morris solemnly de posed the Rev. Geo. Burton from the min istry, in accordance with the canomical requirements of the Protestant Episco- 1al Church, declaring it to be un awful for him to olliciate in tho future in any of the ollices of the sacred ministry. The Bishop has appointed tho Rev Geo. F. Phi miner, Rector of Trinity Church, Portland, to tho vacant placo in the stand ing committee. A Goon Work. Miss Jennie LaForcst has opened a Chinese night school in tho Duuumg opposite me tin store, orio in forms us that the Chinese, having lived in slavery and degradation their past lives, are exceedingly anxious to learn, and can remember what is taught them much more readily than white persons; and we can truly say that Miss LaForcst. while battling her own way through a tumultu ous world, is engaged 111 a work wnicn many a more able and competent person neea not io sname-iace in periorming. otill alive. John isontty who was said to have committed suicide at Port land recently, has turned up alive and well, lie savs lie has been working 111 Portland and East Portland since his trial for counterfeiting, w'hich placed his financ es in a depleted state, and that ho never met Biruie 011 the wharf as claimed. Bir- nioistho man who gave information of his suicide, and he should rise and give ins reasons lor imttosiug on a credulous public. Pkrsoxal. Mrs. Archibald McKinley has been visiting at Mrs. Barclay's tho past week, renewing acquaintances of auld lang syne, and noting tho changes that have transpired ltinnir her fifteen vears of absence from Oregon. Mr. McKinlev. well known to all old residents of Oretron Citv, as well as Oregon, now resides near LakeLallache.m lintish Columbia, w here he has a stock and dairy ranch, and to whom Mrs. McK. returned on Monday. They have many warm friends herealout who extend to them a renewal of cood visiles. Temfe ranch Lkcture. Tho lecture given by Mrs. Logan on Temperance, in the M. E. Church last Sundaj' evening. to a large audience, was pronounced very gooti. 1111s lady has been lecturing ji our State during tho past winter, as we hare seen by our exchanges, and has been well received not only in the cities, but in the principal towns. She purposes visit ing the Walla Walla country before re turning to California. Improvements. Julius Logus has the lumber 011 the ground and carpenters have commenced work on his new rcsi uence. j. 2. iireenman is inaitins an im provement in the sliaix) of a new fence in iroui 01 ms residence. - m. i'oie, v W. Church and N. W. Randall have man ifested an interest in the public welfare hv erecting a bridge across the hollow on 11th street, near Judge Randall's residence. The Democratic majority in the House at the commencement of the present ses sion was 13, and (hey have made it 21 by ousting Republicans on any gauzy pretext, without regarding the decision of the people at the polls. An attempt is being made now to oust Rainey. Smalls, and Cain, the only colored rep resentatives in uongress. bmails case is already in the hands of the committee on elections, and his case is contested by one O'Connor on similar grounds O'Connor's brief is a remarkable docu ment. Cain received a majority of 8,000 votes. His d istrict has so large a colored population that since the war up to the last election no Democratic ticket was nominated. Last election the White League nominated a Congressman, and he received 8,000 votes out of about 24,000. O'Connor, Democrat, claims that he should have been elected, but for the proclamation of President Grant in Octolier, 187G, disbanding the rifle clubs, which proclamation he says in his brief did overawe, intimidate, and threaten so as to prevent qualified vot ers of said district from tho exercise of the free right of suffrage, and further because the oisarming of the rifie clubs by said proclamation rendered terrorism most enectnal in intimidating, and pre venting Democrats from affording them selves any protection in the free exercise of tho right of suffrage. Beriah Brown, of the Seattle Dispatch an old timo Democrat, gives the follow ing complimentary notice of tho Demo cratic loaders in Oregon, caused no doubt by reading the gauzy platform adopted by the Democracy at Portland a few days ago: "We well remember the last political convention of any party in which we bore a part, eight years ago, in Albany Oregon; a platform was adopted prac tically repudiating the public debt Every candidate nominated was requir ed to endorse the platform as a condi uon co nis nomination, and not one believed in it, and each spent the entire canvass in trying to explain it away. The only object sought was to pander to a popular prejudice created by read ing Brick Pomeroy's paper, thousands of which were circulated through Ore gon, and it succeeded as a temporary expedient to the great future detriment of the Democratic party. The collectorship of customs for Alas ka is an anomally among offices. Though a $2,500 place, tho Washington authori ties had to advertise for a man to fill it, and then wait a number of weeks. The last man that went tip got enough of Alaska in about twenty-four hoard, and came back by the same ship. State TickeC ' 'The following nominations were made at Salem last evening; For Governor, C. O. Beekman; for Secretary of State, B. P. Earhart; for Congress, Mr. Hines, of Union county. Convention then adjourned until 8:30 o'clock this morning. The action of the majority of the Maryland legislature upon the Montgom ery Blair scheme for?, driving President Hayes ' from the White House Is only intended for dramatic effect." ' It no doubt has been dictated by the leaders' of the Democracy to keep alive the ex citement for future political use. They will succeed only in keeping up the anxiety of tho people and making the nation feverish and restless. President Hayes holds his place at the bidding of the people and in the manner prescribed by the authority of Congress He will continue to be President, Blair and the Maryland legislature to the contraryj notwithstanding. In section eight of the Democratic platform adopted at Portland last week, egislation is demanded limiting the pay of officials to a single salary. This is a ' slap in the face " for our present Democratic Administration, but the fnnny part comes in when they placed Brown in the field again for State Treas urer, when it is an acknowledged fact he has drawn two or three times the amount of one salary." ' Actions speak plainer than words." Senator Sargent has introduced a bill in the Senate, providing that deserters from the army in Oregon and California between the date of the gold discovery and the close of the year 1848, shall be relieved of all penalties, except their forfeiture of pay that might havo been duo them. Wm. M. Tweed, the Boss thief of the age, died in his cell in New York last week, deserted by his former friends and his ill-gotten wealth scattered to tho winds. A heavy frost fell in some parts of Walla Walla valley about a week ago and completely destroyed the fruit crop. The recent great rush of immigrants to Eastern Washington has created a demand for farm horses in that section. and good horses are scarce and bring good prices. MARRIED. At the residence of J. M.

A large proportion of the American people are to-day dying from the effects of Dyspepsia or disordered liver. The. result of these dis eases unon the maws of intelligent and val uable people is most alarming, making life actually a burden instead or a pleasant ex istence of eniovment and usefulness as it ought to be. There is no reasoD for this, if you will only throw aside prejudice and skepticism, take the advice of Druggists and 3-our mends, and try one bottle or ureen's August Flower. Your speedy relief is certain. Millions of bottles of this medicine have been given away to try Its virtues, with satis factory results in every case. You can buy a nam pie bottle for 10 cents to try. Three doses will relieve the worst case. Positively sold Dy an Druggists on tne western continent. If any Dealer Inform You that he has for sale a dentifrice Identical with or containing Ingredients equalling or superior in efficacy to those of SOZODC7NT, discredit the statement and insist upon hav ing that alone.
