This fact considered, in con nection with the number of immi grants, emphasizes the accuracy ot the work done by the enumerators. Pursuing the vital statistics further, it appears that there are 702 more adult males than females. Inter preted in other words, there are a large number of bachelors In the county. They are found principally on the homesteads, in the foothill, picturesquely nestling in vale and perched on knoll, bewitchingly in viting the maids of older states t come and help in the homebuilding The difference between the aexea of the children under ten years of age is normal.

Some weeks ago Judge McBride or this district held that the Jurisdic tion of Oregon extended to the further or northern bank of the Col umbia. Judge ISellinger of the U.

The statistics of this county will doubtless be found to be more com plete than those of any other county in the state, for the reason that our assessor has added a number of items to the list of inquiries provided for in (lie blanks furui.ihed by the state. For this extra cure, credit should be given to Assessor Wilcox. The latest news from Jackson Hole, or Iaike, lu Western Wyoming, is quite alarming, and indicates that an Indian uprising cannot be lixlitly put to one side. Indiana killed game aa they had a right to do by the terms of their treaty witli the general government, but the white pot hunters attempting to enforce a state law that prohibits the taking of game, killed several Indians. Now, Innocent people have to stiller for the violence of others. It is well that U.S. troops have liccii sent to the scene of the disturbance. The amended spelling in Ihe names of port otlices adopted from time to time by the department at Washington meets with no little opposition. I'lster county, N. Y., protests against the change of .Marl borough Into Marboro, which is cer tainly a bolder cao of amputation than the dropping of the ti mil Ii iu Xewhurli. 1'Utcr county has a wonderful collection of names for its post olllics, borrowed from ltutch and Indian sources, but it wants no tampering with its Helleayre, Cotte kill, lhvairskill, Katsbiiue, Ker lioiikson, ivripplebush, Jvyserike, J.lclihardt, Liikawack, Mcttuca--liouis, .Mimic vtHska, Mombaecus, Oiivtrea, I'.itaiikiink, Slminlak'if and Wnwarsing. The spelling re formers should beware of Jiimpiiip into this thorny thicket. It would bi! far better to tackle Pokcpsy in the next r mud. Oil the face of the proceedings, nn in : ili' public by Mr. D.ilph aud l lit Oreg iniaii, there dies not seem to be reason f..r their tierce attack of the supreme court.

Mr. IVilph ti nti not Mate. The supreme court, on the paper, probably could not ace its way clear to again proceed against .W-e partita to the cuit, string they hial ontv ngretsl to the decree. If the attorneys got too much money the remedy was against them, and Mr. Iolph is tot good a lawyer to blame the court for not rendering Judgment against a arly when he ia not Impleaded. The thing for for eign capital t do is not to keep iu money hoardisl but to employ honest attorney. Oar court is honest and quite as learii'tl in the law as courts of other Mates, Hnd it will take more than a trial in the newspaper vonviuce the eople differently. OA A' IjUJ-JAJJWN METALI&M. OF Bl- Recognizing (he force and convinc ing logic of CarlMe'a five financial propositions the free silver coinage advocates seek to Imitate the Ken tuckey finance Minister, but the suc cess attendiug such efforts Is not very marked. Mr. W. II. Harvey, author of Coins' Schools and recognized aa a leading authority, put out four prop ositions to tit-tine bimetalisin. He says : 'I. Free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silvery these two me tals to constitute the primary or re demption money of the government. "-. The silver dollar of 371 grains of pure silver to lie the unit of value, and gold to be coined into money at a ratio to be changed, if necenaary, from time to time, if the commercial parity to t lie legal ratio shall be af fected by the action of foreign coun tries. "3. The money coined from both metals to be legal tender iu the pay ment of all debts. "4. The option as to which of the two moneys is to be paid in the li quidation of a debt to rest with the debtor, and the government also to exercise that option, when desirable, when paying out redemption money. Republicans wid at once recognize that Mr. Havey's Idea will at once lead to Hlvcr monometalism, a con dition infinitely worse thau the pres ent system, defective though it la. Harvey would have us cut down the size and weight of the gold eagle till it is worth no more than the bullion value of ten -ilver dollars, while the sound money people would, by the regulation of Hie volume of silver coinage, keep the weight and purity of gold at the present standard and maintain silver on a parity with It. Harvey would contract the circulat ing medium, while the sound money advocates would keep it to w hat it now is, or bring about an expansion. Harvey mid his Iricud must not forget that the dollar is tne unit, and not Vl grains of standard sliver. It is true, congress lias directed that grains of standard silver shall be put in a dollar. The same auihority lias also decreed that 2.j 8 grains standard gold shall Le put lu a dollar. at length iu the Ortviniaii. l'roiu (his report, the following general re marks are taken "Washingtoa county lies wtnt of Multnomah, lliiUboro, tho county seat, being sixteen miles due utsl from 1'ortlautl, aud is the furthest north of the great tier of agricultural con ti tie on the West side of the Wit lamette river.

If the stiff figure is maiu taiued in Ihe East, its i ffect w 111 be It-It here, and our farmers will reap more than straw. A prominent farmer in this county stated last week, that In Ida Judg ment the yield of oat at this harvest would lie larger than usual.

The proceedings of the Slate Press Association at Newport are reported to have been dull in the extreme, due to the fact that the Newport people did not extend a warm wel come. Ihe officers elected for the ensuing year are, president, C. C. Doughty, of the Udlas Observer; tirst vice-president, A. W. Patterson, of the Heppiier Oazette; second vice- president, G. IJ.

The scene of the reported Indian outbreak in Idaho is north of the Ft. Hall reservation, w hich is sim atetl In the southeastern pirt of the state. If the reports are at all near the truth, the Indians deserve the sympathy of the public. (Jne news paragraph states that a hand of sev enteen was overtaken and the entire party ktl t-d save ail Indian child. This was returned to the re-ervutimi. tt is not stated, but it is di.ul. tlul if the pursuing party was L. S. soldiers. It waa proltably ekber Indian ; w d it e from the reservation or a po-e of volunteer whites. Jn either ca-e they were not proper persons to tend after the Indian hunters. Admittii g that this parly bad killed tliirt three elk, or tven twice that unmix r, it is no excue for killing seventeen I Indians or a less number. It is bi-b time for the government to send trained efllctrs and regular troniw into that country to preserve cace. The liopgrowcra of Polk county tmve organized the Willamette Uo growers' Association, aud flxed the rate for picking hops at 40 cents a box.

The supreme court of Oregon lias confirmed the sale of the Oregon Pacific rail road rumilug from the eastern part of Linn county through Corvallis to Y'aqulnna. Hammond now seems to be the undisputed owner of that property. Members of Jese Bros, shearing crew, near Burns, say that at Fletch er Broi.' rauch, on Utjir creek, the elglil men comprising tho crew sheared 102U sheep iu one day, and that the highest tally m el-j by one man was William Jesses, who shared 210 sheep in one day. A few weeks ago a Lebanon lady, upon going away for a short visit, hid her Jewelry in a healing stove. Dur ing her absence a young lady who was left in charge of the house built a flro In the stove, aud all the Jewelry, worth about I0U. was ruined. No sooner Is the wool rush at The Dalles over than preparations are begun for the wheat season. The large warehouses are getting ready for a busy time In the fall.

Instant death resulted. At Fossill, Alexander Beard Is buying a bunch of cattle to be de livered about August 25 at 23 for 3 and t-H for 4 year-old steers, prime beef. The Fossil Journal says a man having stock cattle to sell could not get more than 10 for cows and f 12 for cows with calves. Portland buy ers have contracted for beef cattl1 In Crook county at $3.36 a hundred for steers, an advance over last year of 10 ctmts, w hile cows remain the same lust year, $1.75. Benjamin Agce, of Ashlantl, Is the owner, in Southern Oreiron ot 3000 acres of land, aud is largely In terested in fruit, having 22,000 lres planted, 2.ri0 prune trees being in bearing. Last year he dried his prunes and sold them for 100, receiving 5 cents per pound. He cleared f00, It costing him 1 cents for picking, drying and de livering aboard cars. In two year Mr. Agee will have 19(H) prune trees in bearing, and say that 2 of dried fruit to each tree is a qafo estimate at present prices.

Some of our merchants are uow selling a superior article of granu late., us I sugar, aud the demand for it i quite good. . It is sold a little clie.iM-r than granulated cane sugar, and is a little hinder priced than extra "C" We see no good reason why this sugar could not lie produced at home from lieels raised by our own farmers. It has been amply demonstrated than Oregon can pro duce as good sugar beets as any state in the Union, and Washington comity can show a product equal to any in the state. We have in this county thousands of acres of laud ad mirably adapted to beet culture, and we certainly have all the essential requirement fur manufacturing the sugar. The creamery industry Is yearly putting thousands of dollars into the pockets of our farmers where otherwise they would realize little or nothing, and the beet sugar indus tryif established would be worth us much, or perhaps more. It would bring much laud under culti vation and, what is now farmed In grain at a Io-m, could be made to yield a handsome profit, employ ment furnished to laborers and the money we now send abroad for sugar lie paid out to our own people at Homo. By all means, let us Investi gate this subject and see if we cannot arouse an interest in it.

A Washington paper is amusinJJ itself by some elaborate calculations of what might happen if the election of the next president should be thrown iuto tho house. As matter stand the republicans have a clear majority In the house of eighteen States, which ought to satisfy never an arithmetic man. But this partic ular one thinks that the republican members in nine western states might kick out of the traces on the silver issue, w hich would prevent au election in the house and carry It Into the senate, the political complexion of which is uncertain.
