Ireland & Son, at Moro, Oregon, reached us last Saturday for the first time in several weeks. D. C. Ireland, its editor, is ‘doubtless one of Oregons oldest, and bestScnown journalists, having been editor of lhe Oregon ian in war times, and published papers at Oregon City,-As toria, McMinnville and The Dallos, finally selecting good old Sherman county in?1894 for his permanent home, where with his son C. L. Ireland they have a fine plant, including steam cylinder and job printing presses,and are publishing one of the best weekly newspapers in Oregon, adapted to a city of 5000 inhabitants. We look for The Observer because it contains all the pews wprth reading, is well edited, and is not afraid to take the right side of any question and stay with it, no matter whom it hits.

A few Sundays ago a farmer drove over to the county attorney’s home and demanded the arrest of a neighbor’s farm cretf that was “violating the Sabbath.” ’ * The county attorney was busy pulling weeds in his garden and suggest ed that |he complainant go before the justice of the peace in his own township;but was informed that the justice was out fixing his windmill. He was then advised to phone the sheriff, and have him attend to the matter, but he was busy at the stock yards loading cattle. Exasperated, the good mantresolved to saddle a horse and go for a constable, but his wife, who was busy canning fruit, informed him that the boys had driven the horses to the village, where they were in the link up for a ball game, and that the girls had gOUti to a picnic. The farmer has been drunk on hard cider ever since, and stoutly refuses to be sobered. O rchard's testimony is favorable to Haywood. There is not a doubt b u t th a t the fellow committed tin fiendish crimes which he confeeaw, w ithout a blink of his wicked ¿ye; in fact they are affairs of general record; presum ably he tells the tru th when he says he committed them ; but it does not follow that he speaks the tru th when he says that Moyer, Haywood and Pettibone plotted the deeds aiid paid him for executing them. H is cold recital of the horrible catalogue of crime is of itself no value whatever: P e r ju ry could uot darken the black stain of this miserable criminal career.
