man and Jessie Smith.
We respectfully ask those owing the

need the money to pay our own bills,
and can not borrow under the circum
stances. We certainly have been as
lenient as any one ought to expect.
'L Mrs. G. W. Mayer of Walla Walla is
visiting at the home of her father, G. G.
Parman, near Condon. Her sister, Miss
Ethel Parman, has given up the idea of
going to school at Forest Grove, and
will probably teach echool this full.
Circuit court has been in session at
Condon this week. Owing to the busy
season and hard times, there was not a
very large attendance1 at this term, only
those who were obliged to come being
here. Court adjourned this morning.
A doctor sends a remedy for sneer.ing:
"Press firmly upon the upper Hp." ; It
now stands some preacher in hand to
end in some remedy for swearing:
"Grab both lips firmly with both hands
and get your tongue between your teeth."
The Globe is Indebted to G. W. Moore,
tbe Hay creek fruit and produce man,
for some as finecabbage, sweet pumpkin
aud water melon as we have ever seen.
He makes weekly trips to town with
produce of this kind, and hia prices are
the lowest in the country. -The
annual Congregational Minister
ial Association meets at Salem next
Tuesday, 25th. This place was entitled
to three delegates and Rev. E. Curran

ran, will attend, however. He started
Monday.
0. P. Taylor, who owns an excellent
farm and orchard on Rock creek, near
Olex, haa been supplying our town the
last couple of weeks with choice fruit of
all kinds, especially Bartlett pears. , Mr,
Taylor, like thousands of other intelli
gent men, says the Globk ia the best
country newspaper in Oregon. ,
The San Francisco Examiner has
again announced that it will give prizes
to ita aubscril)er8, on a larger scale this
' year than ever before. If you desire to
, win the $10,000 farm, subscribe for the
Examiner through the Gloub man, w ho
is agent for this section. You w ill find
it to your advantage to do so. ; K
, The following from the Jacksonville
K inTimes should be a warning to kickers:
Vr "Chas. H. Brown, who keeps a boarding
house at the Ashland mine, was fined
$10 and costs by Justice Luckey last
week for assault and battery committed
upon one of Ms boarders named Pierce.
The provacation for the assault was in
Pierce's habit of kicking about the table
fare and offering to take up a collection
to buy a roll of butter when tbe table
ifasshyof tbftUrUole." , .;. ,
After all this world Is pretty much a
game of draw.' It takes a rich man to
draw a check, a pretty girl to draw at
tention, a horse to draw a cart, a plaster
to draw a blister, a toper todraw a cord,
a dog fight to draw a crowd, and an
"ad" in the paper to draw trade.
J. M. Sonth of Mayville, who also
owns a farm on the John Day, is the
most extensive melon raiser in this
country. He informs us that he had
acres in melons this season and he could
easily have walked all over the patch
on melons, so close tegelher were they.
He has been furnishing the town with
all the "fruit" of this kind our people
could use.
The National Medical Review says:
"A man may be called a thief, a liar
and a dead-beat, and yet be may pros
per and live upon the fat of tbe land.
But once let him be called "Doc," and
his professional success Is at an end. If
a man calls you 'Doc you need never
expect a penny from him for any pro
fessional services you could ' render.
This may not hold always, but it Is so
near the truth that it may pass for a
rule."
John Lyons, who has been studying
law here under bis brother, T. R. Lyons,
for the last six months, will leave next
Tuesday, 25th, for Salem, where he will
enter the law school of the Willamette
University. 1 He is a very bright young
man and will no doubt make a success
ful attorney. Owing to his pleasant and
and agreeable manner he has marie
many friends here who hope he will re
turn to Condon after bis term in college.
A Mitchell correspondent to The Dalles
Chronicle says: Jack Haroblet, who
murdered Ben Gam may near Mitchell
several months ago, has been in his old
haunts again. He was at Lew Re ting's
(near Mitchell) and staid all night and
part of a day recently ; but there seems
to be no move to arrest him. There is
a standing reward of $1250 for Hamblet's
body, dead or alive, and it's a wonder
some one doesn't try to "earn" the
money. . ;
We are informed thateight families of
immigrants from Douglas county arrived
here last week with a view to settling
on some of the vacant land in this vi
cinity. They are acquaintances of A.
Hartman and A. P. Lacey, just north of
town. These people have used good
jndgment In coming here, as this is
destined to tie the most prosperous coun
try on the coast when it becomes settled
up as it should be by an energetic,
working class of people.
The cost of moving wheat from the
Palouse country to Portland is 14 cents
per. bushel, and the market price of
wheat is from 2G to 28 cents. The
cost from here is 6 cents a bushel,' and
the price is 30 cents. If the wheat is as
good, which it Is presumed to be, why
should not the price be 8 cents more
than in the Palouse, since there Is that
difference in the freight? Again, wheat
ia selling at 70 cents per hundred in
Portland, or 42 cents per bushel, and the
freight is 6 cents, leaving 36 cents, with
8 cents for warehouse dues and commis
sions, why should not the price here be
at least 33 cents? Dalles Chronicle.
The Fossil paper, with its usual and
long-accustometl practice of encoura-
gl ng crime and shielding criminals, last
week saw fit to criticise Wayne Hamil
ton's effort to bring to joBtice Clarence
Zaehary, who was charged with tbe
larceny of Mr. Hamilton's colt. Wheth
er Zachary is guilty of a crime or not,
what MiHiness has the journal to try
the rase and acquit him, without know
ing anything about the facts of the case.
The object of a preliminary examina
tion ia to examine into the evidence to
ascertain if a crime haa been committed,
and it is presumed that the magistrate
I h-lore whom the examination is heard
can be able to ascertain whether or not
a crime has been committed, withont the
Journal's meddlesome interference. The
Journal's tendency to encourage crime
is having its desired effect, judging
from the large amount of criminal busi
ness from that section that comes before
the grand jury at every session. It
seems to he a true saying that "birds of
a feather flock together," etc.
Farmers, Take Notice.
Stock hogs are selling in Nebraska for
from 2'k to f 1.50 a head. This Is owing
to tbe fact that the corn crop is a failure
in that state and farmers have nothing
to feed their hogs with. These hogs can
he bought and set down here at Arling
ton at a cost of aliout 3 a head. Is it
not cheaper to feed your wheat to hogs
if they can be bought at these figures
than to sell it at existing prices?
For further information on this sub
ject call on me at the depot and I shall
tie happy to give you all the information
in my power. ' F. O. Hindis,

get our crops in shelter. No' danger of
farmers starving this year. '. Jumbo.

sick for a long time with consumption,
died here Monday night. He was about
42 years of age and was employed gener
ally as bar-tender here for the past five
years. He had no relatives in this sec
tion that we know of.
A former Oregonian, W. J. Windham,
writing from Cartaga, Costa Rica, (Cen
tral America) in a lengthy letter to the
Oregonian, booming up that country as
the finest place in the world, says that
among the Americans in that distant
land is Ernest Fisher, formerly of Ar
lington, who Ih conductor one passenger
train there and is doing well.
Last Saturday night the residence of
Art nor Coffin, in which Mr. Barfoot and
family were living, was discovered to be
on fire about one o'clock. Our citizens
turned out in double quick time and
did all in their power to arrest the
fiery fiend, but owing to a lack of water
in the reservoir the pressure was insuffi
cient to quench the flames, and the
splendid house, which cost more than
$2500, was soon leveled to the ground,
leaving a blackened mass of smoulder
ing ruins in its stead. Nearly all of the
household goods belonging totheoceu-
Cants were saved. We understand the
uilding was partially insured.
Lone Rock Riplets,
Miss Anna Clarke has taken charge
of the Eightmile school for the fall term.

ment of the Fossil saw mill.
A great many of the Lone Rockers
left last Sunday for Condon to attend
court, some as jurors and some as wit
nesses. R. M. Johnson has had a very severe
attack of lagrippe for the last ten days.
He is under the care of Dr. Howard of
Fossil and is improving.
We understand that Jas. Coleman and
Frank Ralston had a skirmish the other
evening, to the great amusement of the
crowd that was present.
People have begun to move into town
for the winter to attend school, which
begins Monday next. We expect a good
school here this winter.
There are more emigrants moving out
of the upper country this fall than for
some years back. Thev have struck
this country during the hard times, and
think by going to Western Oregon or
California they will find good times;
but they will be sadly mistaken. East
ern Oregon is the most prosperous coun
try on the coast just now.
Married At the City hotel at Hepp
ner on last Saturday evening at 8 o'clock,
in the presence of a few invited guests,
by Rev. Frank Adkins, Mr. A. W. Moore
of Lone Rock and Miss Kate Lakin of
Iowa. Mr. Moore is a nephew of John
M. Brown of Lone Rock, and lately came
from Iowa. He was joined Saturday
morning by his bride, she having just
arrived from Iowa. Both are most ea-
timattle young people, and have many
friends who tender ood wishes. Thev
departed Sunday morning for Lone Rock
and will teach school at this place this
fall. 1 hey occupy rooms at the Lone
Rock hotel for the present. Mr. Moore
has been with us hut a few months and
we hope he will make ttiis his permanent
home. The Lone Rock tin band with a
shotgun solo gave Mr. Moore and his
new wife a serenade last Sunday evening,
t Jno. Doe.

There is lota of good fruit going to

In the circuit court of the state of Or
egon for Gilliam county, Sept term 1894.
In the matter ot tbe onai report ot
grand jury.
To the honorable circuit conrt of the
state of Oregon for Gilliam county.
We, the grand jury ot satdcouuty and
state for the Sept. term of said court,
beg leave to submit the following report:
We have been in session in all four
days, and after making a careful exam
ination of all matters submitted to us
for consideration we have found and re
turned into court two true bills of in
dictment. 1
We have investigated several other
matters that we did Dot deem advisable
to make mention of, as they did not ap
pear of sufficient importance. We have
examined the county books, offices and
records and find that the county jail is
kept in good condition, but we recom
mend that the steel cell in the jail be
better ventilated, if possible.
We have also examined the sheriff's
office, books and accounts and find that
the same are all in good order and prop
erly kept.
VVe have also examined the county
clerk's otllee and county records in his
custodv and find that the same are all
in good order and kept in proper form.
We have examined the county treas
urer's hook and accounts and find the
same in good order.
We find that there is one person under
the care of the county aud that he is
properly provided for by the county
conrt. Having finished our labors for
this term of said court we respectfully
ask to be discharged from further duty
at this time."
