The Judge's re marks were brief. Brown was un- moved and was brighter than during his trial. Attorneys will appeal the case to the supreme court. Our Future Prospects. The opinion seems to bo current among tho conservative business men and capitalists of this city that tho coming season will be a comparatively prosperous one in the building Hue. Already the prospects of new resi' deuces to quite a number being huilt are good. That there will be a olass of emigrants turning their attention to wards tliis state, who nave some meaus and who will be able to do something for the developement of the country, is also good, almost certain. Of them a certain proportion are nat urally laborers with a trade. These will move to a town rather than n ranch or farm, and their arrival cro ates a demand lor residences that the supply will probably not be equal to. Investment in real estate just at the present quiet times is bettor than mon ey at interest. Considerable such in vestments are being mado now, and when the reaction is started, which it is bound to do by tho common course of events before long, and the demand for property is greater, and the sale at real value an easy matter, then the folly of not investing in the present timo will be seen, but too late. No one can say that any of the comparatively large towns in the West will grow smaller, nor can the possibilities of their growth be measured either. For as the country develops and is capable of the proper application of its resources to sustain a larger working population, the numerous small towns now dotting our map will have grown into cities of some size, and many more towns, yet unthought of, will be scattered around us as trade, centers of a rapidly develop ing country. This is not a visionary idea but what cannot help but be the natural outcome of the present state of affairs. v Selling Out MY ENTIRE STOCK CONSISTING OF Rubber, Fancv, and Dry Goods. a fine line of STAMPED and HAND PAINTED XMAS GOODS and BOXES.

Corvallis Times: Speculation is rife as to who will buy and what will bo paid for the Oregon Paciflo at the sheriffs sale of the property next Sat urday. Eight times tho outfit has been offered for sale, aud two of those times there has been bidders, with next Saturday's doings still to hear from. The sale is advertised to take place at 1 o'clock, aud with tho hints that have gone the rounds to the effect that there will be bidders, it is probable that a crowd will be on baud to sco tho road part company with the people who paid f 14,800,000 for its construction, it is currently believed that Hammond and Bonner of Montana, will bid on the road, but whether they will build eastward or move it down to (111 their Astoria contract is veiled in mystery. B. B. Jackson, three or four weeks ago in Corvallis, and a week ago In Port land, reputed to be at the head of suffi cient capital to make a good bid, has made Inquiries of the right persons for information that leaves tho Inference that he might tako a shot at the pro perty. A letter received In this oity this week from W. T. Schenok, once with the O. P., but now assistant chief engineer of the New York Central, with headquarters In New York City, states that he hns information that there is certain to be a sale of tho old road this timo. Lawyer Goodfellow of Ban Frauoisoo, and Wallls Nash, visit ed Corvallis several days this weok, and when asked gave out that he was tho representative of certain certificate holders. For two days he searched O. records in the court house, and this leads some people to think thai he may have the road knooked down to him. The reader will bear in mind that the foregoing is all froth aud to be accept ed for what good froth is usually worth. Public Schools,.

Lively Street Duel With Three Mexicans. One of TU em will Probably Die. Pkescoxt, Ariz., Deo. 20. Police man Prince last night attempod to ar rest three men who wore running amuck In Prescott, when the trio pulled guns and commenced firing at him. Ho returned the fire shooting one Mex ioan through the right thigh, sbater ing the bono badly and causing a wound from which the man will probably die.

A petition is being circulated In thli county asking that the legislature pro hibit tbe Indians on the various reser vations in the state from hunting off the lauds set apart for them. What started this movement was the need less and uncalled for slaughter of large numbers of deer and elk in the Cascade mountains last summer by tho Indl- ans, who went there from their resor vatlons to hunt. Equipped as they wero with tho latest improved Ore' arms and going in largo numbers, they wero able to slaughter by the whole sale, which they did. Many of the state papers spoke of it at the time and regret was expressed that the Indians were thus allowed to hunt. We un derstand that several prominent mem. bcrs of the coming legislature are tak inn an interest in this and will use their influence t have the petitioners' prayers answered. We learn that sev- eral ether counties will present similar petitions, so that It will probably be brought before the legislature a way that will command their atten tion. Was Surprised. Today's Oregon- Ian: "Charlos E. Lockwood, ex-assist ant United States attorney, was seen yesterday by a reportor in relation to the statement that tho federal grand Jury bad found an indictment against him, growing out of matters connected with his transactions while in office, Mr. Lockwood said he knew nothing of the matter until he saw the an nouncement in theOregonian,and that It was a great surprise to him. If he had been requested to appear before the grand jury In his own behalf, there would have been no such indict moat returned. He said the attack upon him was Instigated by a certain treasury official, and It was Inspired by other motives than tho furthering of Justice. Mr Lockwood exhibited documents for the Inspection of the re porter, which went to show that there was no foundation whatever for tbe charges made against him. No at tempt has been made to arrest him A Judge Accuaed of Fraud. Macon, Mo., Deo. 20. A warrant was sworn out by O. M. Hicks, treas urer of the populist county committee, against Judgo D. D. Ballard, late of Los Angeles, Oil., whom he accuses of obtaining money from him uuder false proteuses. During tho congressional campaign Ballard lectured for the pop ulists, and during this time obtained Hicks' indorsoment to a draft on a Washington bank. Hicks found Bal lard had no money iu tho bank, and swore out a warrant for Ballard's ar rest. The Iatter's whereabouts are unknown. Il Influx: of Japuueao. Washington, Deo. 20. It appears from a special report to the state de partment from United States Consul Bmlthers, of Hlogo, Japan, that there Is very littlo danger to ho apprehended to the United States of an influx of Japancso cheap labor. By the new regulations recently issued by the Jap anese government, tho Immigration companies are required to seoure the approval of tho countries to which the immigrants go, aud this oau bo with hold at any tin. i. Tho Meijl Emigra tion Company, established at Hlogo in 1892, with tho object of sending emi grants to work in tho coal mines of British Columbia, has been unsuccess ful In that enterprise, and some emi grants shipped to Yiotorla havo been sent to the United Slates. At A. V. Peters. Do not forget that tho clearance sale is still on at A. V. Peters' store where goods aro sold at astonishingly low prices. Cutting Rates. Salem Statesman: "It Is understood that representatives of the Southern Paciflo Co. wore in Salom yesterday interviewing the business men relative to that com pany's making a low freight rate of ten oents per hnndrod, regardless of classification, between this city aud Portland, they having aspoclal twenty cent rate at present and a first-class rato of 33 cents. The ten cent rato wll be named for a year providing the merchants will guarantee at least one half of their business to the railroad oompany." Eugene would also wel come a reduction.
