The one he has been using belongs to Herbert Halstead, and haa been moved back to Lost Valley. Through the energy of her wide-awake citizens, Long Creek is about to have a first-class normal school established at that place.

In Michigan 00,000 laboring men have signed a petition asking the legislature to employ state convicts in road Im provement. The field for this work is so large that the idea is gaining support ers in every state.

Last week's Pufur Dipatch says: "The civilization of Pufur and vicinity is such that it would not, we are glad to say, tolerate such obscene publications as the Fossil Journal is guilty of nearly evory issue; and we doubt if the U.

Don't make a Chinaman out of yourself by hogging every dollar in eight and never spending a cent for improvements, advertising or anything else for the good of the town.

Judge OV N. Denny has been turned down second time, by the appoint ment of Harold Bewail aa minister to Hawaii, and Max I'racht haa also been knocked out of the governorship of Alas ka. Verily, the way of the office-seeker is hard, alao full of dinappointmenta. Tbe Heppuer Gazette Bays that Mr. John Harto and Miss Ina Gorton were married by the J.

Rundall Palmer was in tow n also with a little racer and accommoda ted tbe redskins by relieving them of what silver they had. amounting to sev eral dollars. The Indians remained in town Tuesday night and got "roaring" drunk. Whoever let them have the whisky should be severely dealt with, as they might have burned the town, since there is no fire protection whatever here now. The maximum penalty for this of fense is life imprisonment. Vale Advocate: It is a common prac tice today to rear a boy, that at the age of 12 or 14 years his parents as well as the community feel the need of sending him to the reform school a paternal in stitution intended to take tbe place of horse sense and a harness-tug. Here the taxpayers are compelled to assist in rearing a criminal that would, with prop er training and a few broken doses of strap-oil, have become a useful citizen. Ffty years ago there was little need of public reform schools, for the parent, knowing his duty to himself and society, did the reforming in bis own woodshed. Judge Lowell has died an opinion in the expense case of the Umatilla county sher iff. He aaya : "I am of the opinion that the county court has the power and au thority to consider and audit the ex pense accounts of the sheriff of the coun ty, necessarily incurred in the per formance of his duties, and that in this case it erred in disallowing charges which seemed to be reasonable and nec-J essarily incident to the proper conduct of the office of such officer. Said claim is remanded with direction to allow the same." The esse has been carried to tbe supreme court, which convened at Pendleton this week.

Thompson, of Corwilh, Iowa; J. R. Locke, of Merrill vilie, Indiana; C. E. Woodson, of Eu gene, and A. W. Balsiger, of Morrow county. The latter waa in town last week making personal application. Splendid recommendations accompany each letter, those of Miss Thompson be ing unusually good. There being bo many more kinds of employment open to gentlemen than to ladies, we believe the board feels rather inclined to give the Indies a show and that a lady princi pal will be employed this time, for a change. ;J A dispatch from Salem aaya: The do mestic animal commission has ordered 20 head of horses belonging to 0 R. Houghani, in Gilliam county, killed. Iu accordance with the order, Hougham ordered bis men to kill the horses when he left his ranch Monday. Hia horses are affected with the mange, which i.s very contagious, being transmitted to an animal that rubs against a tree whore a mangy horse has been. Mr. llougbam does not object to the commission's or der, bnt thinks it useless to kill 20 of his horses when there are about 50 on same range similarly affected that have not been ordered killed. A letter just re ceived from Grunt Wade states that he killed and buried the 20 horses and that he will make another killing in a few days that is, of mangy horses. Our town was treated to somewhat of a sensation Monday, by a marrtnge in "high life.". About one year ago a Mr. and Mra. Hart dropped in . here, from Portland, they said. They secured em ployment for several months with Chas. Fix in hia restaurant and the balance of the bu miner on the Hyde ranch on Hay creek. They left in the fallbut return ed again this spring and agaiu secured employment with Mr. Fix, Mr;' Hart as until carrier 10 lioiih kock. aii hub nine they, of course, lived together as hus band and wife. Thinking that perhaps it wouldn't hurt to have the nuptial knot tied a little tighter, they were married "again" Monday by City Recorder H. B. Hendricks, in the parlors of Fix's res taurant, in the presence of onlv a few se lect friende. This time they gave their names aa Henry Alherahardt and Miss Mary Ann Smith. It is needless to add that'they were serenaded in the most ap proved style by the tin bucket brigade.

Ed Cruikshank left this week to gath er hia horses in Idaho for the purpose of shipping them to Ohio. Some think he ia figuring on bringing back a better 4- Bill Brown waa on tbe creek the other day trying to trade for a farm. Had he come to Olex he could have found sev eral of them, and at a great bargain, too. a e How to Live Long. Home curious figure have lately been made public by a celebrated Berlin phy sician, which seem to point to the fact that if a man wants to live long and preserve his health and strength be ought to marry. Among unmarried men between the ages of 30 and 45. says Spare Moments, the death rate is 27 per cent. Among married men between the same ages it is only 18 per cent. For 41 bachelors who live to be 40 years of age, 78 married men triumphantly arrive at the same period. The difference gets all the more marked as time goes on. At 60 years of age there are only 22 bachelors to 48 married men ; at 70 there are 11 bachelors to 27 who were married, and by the time ihey reach 90 the mar ried men are three to one, for there are nine of them to every three bachelors. And yet, in the face of facta like these, we still find men daring to remain single I It really is as much as their lives are worth, if they ouly come to think of it. Men may talk of their lives being shortened by domestic wor ries and anxieties and cares. That is all rubbish. Statistics must tell the trntb, and these statistics of tbe Berlin doctor say that the man who is a bache lor stands in far greater risk of a short ened span. A New Yurk woman who has bad nine husbandn says she does not want any more. Now, here ia a woman who knows when she has enough. Exchange. The state secretary has appropriated among the counties the 6 per cent re ceived from the sale of government lands within the state during the pagtyiar. The total amount distributed was $1,- 382.40.
