yesterday is liable to drown the

Justice Smith on Wednesday last
hail before him the case of J. N

The football season will open to

a game la-tween I he college team and

The same teams met last year, when
the Forest. Urove players were the
victors. It may be d liferent this
year, since the aciuiemy hoys nave a
heavier team and the urove lias lost
some of the men who were in the
line before.
The Independent had a wrong
impression when it was stated some
time Rgo that Mr. i'erktns who owns
the Keid d. I. c. between It.edville
and lieaverton Is opposed to legaliz
ing the public r at! r. inning through
his premises. He favors the. road
and says that he cannot get along
without it. He did oppose laying
out a country road along the line of
the railroad and probably would do
so again.
One of the big lists of iter. mil pro-
(terly that is to be offered for sale in
the county this fall is the Johnson
auction at Spring Hill Farm south of
lil ley. next Monday, Oct. 2.1. At
this sale there will be offered a large
number of horses, cattle, wagons,
buggies farm In plements etc. Ihe
terms of sale are spot cash for sums
under $10 Oil but on sums of $10,00
anil upward six months time will be
allowed purchaser to pay 8 per cent

The loot ball players at Forest
drove are happy made so by twi
circumstances. It has rained and
their grounds have been worked over
with rolling narrow, lne otner is
the arrival of their instructor, coach.
It is reported that he finds brawn
and a fine spirit, though science and
training may lie improved. It is
thought, though, that their antag

a game when the matches shall have
have been played.
The birds did a good work last
week on the frosty mornings. Team
sters and every one else who was un
screened were greatly annoyed by a
tittle black tly. The pesky insects
iiMlged on fences, houses, roofs anil
on weeds even. The cold nights
stiffened them so that they could not
Hy early In Ihe morning. This was
the opHirtunity for the birds ami
they improved it. During these two
or three frosty mornings they almost
completely abated the rly nuisance.
A complaint was filed in Justice
Humphreys court last Wednesday
charging C. K. D.-ichman with assault
and battery. The examination will
tike place next week. No one sup
poses that Mr. IMchman ever com
milted an assault not to mention
battery, but the thing grows out of
the Walker divoreo case. Mrs. Walk
er attempted to forcibly take her
chiM from her mother-in-law. There
was about lo tie a hair pulling scene,
and Mr. 1H-Ichmau being present In
terferred to preserve the eace.
The contractors of the Yamhill riv
er Tuck, at LalayeMe. have let anoth
coffer dam go out, and the season is
so far advanced that It is doubtful If
another-attempt will Is) made this
year to complete tha work. It is
now suggested that the government
lake work out of the control of the
cot tractors. This may be done. It
is really surprising that a small
stream like the Yamhill cannot be
controlled when ills ptiesihle to car
ry on public works on so consider
able rivers as the Columbia ami the
Mississippi.
