discovered that if I was quick I wan

spent too freely I was fast, and that
not to eat m to fitst, I was discour

is contrary to law. For this offence
he has lieen arrested and taken be

Portland had a crank. He had
written letters to Governor IVnnoyer
and Mayor Mason, Instructing those

several others must be killed for the
Salvation of the country. He was
sent to the insane n-ylum.

Xever In the history of the oldest
nhabitant of Wallula did fliat siige-

soaking of ruin as lately. The green
grass is springing up, the vi,i How

even the sagebrush Is smiling. Fall

Alxiut a year ago a cororatioii al
Dallas, polk county, built a house
nl enstalltsl n woolen nmnufiu lur
ing plant. Alsut the time it was
ready to turn on the water, financial
distress overtook the concern and it
was sold at sheriffs sale. The Oh
'rver no wants to know why the
present owners can't operate the fac
tory. That paper forgets that Grover
Cleveland Is on the throne.
The murder of Mayor Harrison
tartled the country, and one of the
hicago editors, who happened to be
n Xew York at the time, wondered
why the HTs'trator was not lynched.
We can tell him. That portion of
the Chicago community that would
indulge In mob law and lynching is
in sympathy always with a murderer
and not with those who execute the
laws. Oswego Ironworker.
Mansfield A Sons are getting out

from Grant's Pass. The paysstreak
Is about six Inches wide, and Is com

fairly glitters with gold. They are
hauling the ore to Jewett's arastra
and grinding it. The pay-streak
shows every Indication of perma

Umatilla county woolgrowcrs have
orgalnized the "Umatilla County
Wool-Growers' Association." T. B.
Wells was elected as president ami
Willian Beagle as secretary and
treasurer. One of the provisions or
the constitution is that it shall be
non-political and committed to no
candidate for office. The association
will discuss and net upon such
matters as concern the Interests of
woolgrowcrs, probably agreeing on
wages to l paid sheepherders and
shearers.
Within a year not less than l,Soo
has been taken from this county to
the Kecley institute to help restore
the manhood of men who had be
come helpless slaves to the demon
strong drink. Still others must go
there or to the dogs, and yet, In spite
of those pitinblo examples, there are
in and armmd iMllas many men
who are helping to pay the 4,ono to
S,0i)0 paid yearly for the support of
its three saloons. But many of those
saloon supporters say they cannot
pay their debt. Dallas Itemizer.
W. M. Johnson, of 1m k a mas
in the city Monday looking op the
onion market. Mr. Johnson is the
onion king of Clackamas county and
has made sueh a careful study of the
business that he always succeeds In
raising a good crop. He says that
this season he has already gathered
and stored 3..VX) bushels and that he
has over ) bushels yet to gatlr.
He has, during the past seaon, built
a new warehouse with capacity tot
more than his full crop. His plant
Jug the last season was eight acre
which will yield something over o)
btfehelti per acre.
' A disgraceful affair was reported to
the Corvalll Xews of the 2nd, for
which the guilty party should 1
punished. Last evening a little boy
wu given whisky until he was so
badly Intoxicated that he was un
conscious and for a time In such a
condition that a physician was called
in to attend him. He was found
wandering alwut on the hack streets
and was afterward taken home by
his father who learned of his con
dition. The s-ron who it Is sai.l
gave the boy the whisky Is a young
man who knows better than to do
such a disgraceful act and shou'd Is
made' to -suffer for the unlau fulnew.
The matter no doubt will la? looked
Into, or at least it should.
Mrs. R. E. Iarsey has the honor
of introducing the first Denny pheas
ants Into Crook county, she having
arrived here from Willamette valley
last Monday with five of thesc.Umu
tiful birds three hf nsand two risks,
says theOehnco Review. Mrs. Ifctr
sey offered the birds to tho residents
of Prineville for l-'o. This amount
was readily raised, and the hints
were turned over to the care of Win,
CoiuIm, who took them to his farm
three miles aliove town, whero he
will care for them during the winter,
and next spring will turn them loose
to propagate. These birds Increase
very fast, one hen raising from twen
ty to thirty chicks each season, and
if not molested, these five will in a
few years stock tho whole county.
The only hindrance the Ixhepend-
EMT sees is the long tail that will
ball up with snow in winter and an
chor the bird where there is no food
or shelter.
A Mrs. Tisile, of Einn county, has
recently ls-n trying her hand at
pistol practice, though she tlid no
shooting, since she euld not find the
"man that struck Billy Itterson."
The incident lends an Astoria sts-r
to remark that "the necessities of
early limys in Oregon, I he days of
the trail and foot-log, produced a

It is not generally known that a
great calamity was not long ago
averted on the Morrison street bridge,
similar to the one which hap?ned
on the other bridge last Wednesday
morning. One day a car became un
manageable and was heading straight
for destruction, when it was stopcd
at the wry brink by the almost fren
ried motorman. So close was the
car 'to making the fatal plunge, that
it ran against the gate and live pick
ets In it were actually broken in two.
They have never been replaced and
may yet be seen by any one who
will look. The company at once had
a notice, "Cars stop," posted 200 feet
from the draw and every motorman
was ordered to come to a dead stop
at that point whether the draw was
open or shut. A similar notice was
placed on the Steel bridge and one
should have been on the Free bridge.

their destination with a loss of but
ninety-two out of the entire ship

good showing. One not conversant
with the mysteries of piscatorial

fish eggs must be shipped in water,
but not so. The eggs were packed
in cotton flannel trays with flannel
on top of the eggs and between the

the trays after all were safely jweked
In the rack was placed a quantity of
Ice which kept them ctsl and damp.
Packed in this way they made the

Judge ' McBride was yesterday
talking over anecdotes of strange
court trials, as a result of which In
nocent men have been convicted and
hung or sent to Jail. Tne Judge re
called an instance in his own career
where a Jury convicted, and he was
about to sentence, a man for robbery,
against whom the strongest possible
case had been made out, when it was
found conclusively that the prison
er's story was absolutely true, and
the deductions drawn by the Jury all
false. A Frenchman near Oregon
City alsut eight years ago went to
a private house and wanted to buy a
cookstove. He wanted it badly, but
the woman who owned it declined to
sell. Four days after, the housj w,as
robbed and the stove taken. The
woman's suspicions were apajsed
against the Frenchman. His house
was seap-hed, and sure enough, there
was the cookstove. He was arrested
and tried. The defence was that he
had bought the stove from an un
known man who was passing his
residence with the article in a wagon.
He could not describe this man,
didn't rememlsr what the wagon
looked like, and altogether, the story
loooked very fishy. The prisoner
was convicted ami tho Judge was
about to pass sentence, when a
brawny Irishman came forward and
said that the Frenchman's story was
true, and that he, himself, had sold
him the stove. The Irishman was
the plaintiffs hultnd, and not de
siring to get Into hot water "witn
his oi l woman," hud waited until all
the chances of the innocent man's
acquittal had gone before making
the confeion. Judge McBride re
opened the case, and promptly re-
leased the prisoner. Astorian.

"What a curious wooden hammer,
Miss Lilian."
"Yes, it was presented to lajia
many years ago by a lodge of some
kind that he was presiding over at
the time. I suppose ho used it when
he wanted to open the lodge or call
some brother to order."
"Speaking of lodges, Miss Lilian,
what do you think of men who Join
them and neglect ther-er-wlves and
all that sort of thing"
"I think they are not doing their
duty, Mr. Spoonamore."
"S-so tlo 1! We agree exactly on
that. A man who would alsindon
the society of his-his wife, you know,
to go down-town four or five times a
week, and meet a lot of other men
and go through the mummery they
call initiation, and smoke cigars,
and have a good time-why, it Isn't
right, you know."
The young woman toyed with the
little woden hammer and said
nothing.
"And that's why I feel bold say,
Miss Lilian, that I think you and I
wouid-h'm-wnuld never have any
disagreements if-we should-because
that's the way I feel about lt, and
and I've never talked this way to
you before, you know, for I wasn't
exactly certain whether-and all that
sort of thing. When two js-rsons agn-e
on things like this, It stands to reason
that there might be other things they
would also-and you haven't known
me a great while ierhaps, but I feel
that you're the only woman In the
world I want to marry"

Caight a Bear With a Lass.
Last Tuesday while Joe Elliott
and his brother were out on a desert
near Prineville, eight miles south
west of this city, hunting horses,
they came across a bear and immed
iately gave chase. After following
bruin about two hours they succeeded
in roping the animal, one catching
it arouud the head and one foreleg,
th other by both hind feet. Joe
made his rope fast to a JuniiN-r tree
while his brother remained on his
horse and held the bear taut. Joe
then, with a small pocketknife, suc
ceeded lu cutting the bear's throat.
The bear was an Immense "Silver
Tip" and estimated to weigh 00
pounds, being quite fat. One tu-k
was broken short off, the other meas
ured three and three-fourths Inches
In length. Herald-Dissemlnat jr.
Think well before you cast your
ballot. Remember that a dollar
spent in the community may come
back to you in its active runds of
duty between the merchant, the
farmer and home manufacturer. But
when sent off to pup-hase foreign
supplies, It is withdrawn beyond
your reach and Is missed in the
activities of trade and lessens the
demand for your productions on the
farm and in the factory. Free trade
invites you to send your money
away, protection enables you to keep
It In circulation at home.

t ranks and lunatics with raupter-
ous propensities have been known In
all ages of the woild. .'There were
Wilkes Booths, Guitcaus' and pren-
dergnsts back in the Greek and
Roman period, and Italy, England
and France had them In- media-val
daym. Apistrently they are more
numerous In thopnwnt age ami In
the more enlightened lands how
ever, than they were In the past.
They are a sort of fungus which
spring up with a svullar luxuriance
in the rank soil of modern civiliza
tion. They are parasites which cling
with a istrticular and insiduous ten
acity to the body of modern am-loty.
In a considerable degree, too, society
must p'lnaiu at their mere)'. Every
crank doe not develop into an assas
sin, and does not revval characteris
tics or pftslillctlons which Indicate a
dangerous lent of mind. Doubtless
none of Hum who knew Ireuler
gast ever supioscd that his vagaries
and hallucinations would take a
murderous tun. So far as this can
ls (earned this development of his
character was sudden and altogether
une.Mvtts.l, and hence it could not
be adtsmately guarded against. Un
til crankery transforms Itself into
crime it cannot come in con filet
with the law.
Nevertheless, the community must
make a more intelligent effort than
it has hitherto tsayed to pptect
itself against these fissj of the social
oplcr. While every pptnouncetl or
recognized crank may not display or
thp-nten to display homicidal tend
encies, society may yet be forced to
place them, in some degree at least,
under a sort of surveillance, so that
their movements anil actions may he
known in a general way to the au
thorities. It, is safe to assume that
though every crank may not be a
criminal in actuality, he Is often a
criminal in p ssibility. The lack of
mental balance which constitutes
crankery means lo-s of restraint and
Ignorance or disregard ' eontldencea.
Men constantly or temporarily In the
condition of even a mild form of hal
lucination lose all knowledge of pro
portion, propriety and th most ele
mentary of the social p'latlons. They
have an exaggerated and false Idea
of their own linortrtiee and of their
position in the community. In their
own iHslortcd fancy tliey. are, or
ought to ls, the center of all things.
Often this mania sees conspiracies on
the part of society or some powerful
individuals against its possessor, and
it determines to defeat the plotters
and the wrong In the readist and
most summary manner. Then the
mania Imvohios dangepMis-
Prendergitst had the mania in this
form. In his own estimation he
was a highly important personage In
the community. He was about to
bring alsiut certain reforms, and
imagined that Mayor Harrison had
promised to make hint corporation
counsel In order that he could ac
complish this beneficent work, and
he wreaked prompt and terrible
vengeance on the mayor for with
holding the apointment. The prob
lem of guarding against the Prender
gasts, however, is encompassed with
innumerable difficulties. Lunatics
whose actions and vagaries become
dangerous to themselves or trouble
some to the community are usually
placed under restraint of some sort
In asylums or other Institutions, but
there are lunatics and cranks whosa
eccentricities and angulartiee are less
striking ami obtrusive, and who
therefore, do not come in contact
with the law. Every city or village,
however small, has some of these.
Here is a -ril which society has
constantly to confront.'. These ersons
are called odd or eccentric, and ara
usually laughed at because they ara
considered harmless, but it should
ulwavs ls born In mind that lack of
mental balance, however innocent
and Innocuous It may seem, is liable
at any time and without the slightest
warning to take on a form which
will make it dangerous to the coin,
