Ho reports the following arrests aud convictions : Coos county, Joe Fish, casting sawdust in stream, $50; Win Ingersol, Vance Gamble and Jack Weigh ton were each fined $-'s and cost» for killing deer out of season. In Baker County, E. Bauhun. John Ramey were each fined $25 for killing deer out of season, and S. G. Jones of Douglas county was acquitted on the same charge. 25 Men Wanted. With oue sign alone, calling for i01 20 men to fill various jobs, the laboring man can hardly say he can’t get work, and that too at good prices. Men are iu demand, an-.l any man that wunts a job can get one by simply asking for it at any of the mills, or the stores where mill help is engaged.
