LOCAL RECORD. Tiik Rock Ckkkk Aitaiii. A corres pondent of a Salem paper writci In the fol lowing emphatic manner about the shoot ing scrape : "The examination before the Linn county grand jury was not concern In" the shooting of Chas. Thomas. It was about the letter that the so-called vigilant sent to Wm. Thomas. And as to the ex pectation of bloodshed, it is not expected in the least. If there are an of our citizens going armed, I would like for jour inform ant to tell who nicy arc. in rcgaru u peddling all that is said in the neighborhood concerning this affair, I can say this : There is much more peddling done outside of the neighborhood than there is in it. We have sonic tattlers as well as other neigh borhood. Those thinking all are that way inclined had best come and sec be fore they say too much." Thk Statb I'knitkntiarv. Supt. G. S.

This In the face of the fact that the while flag has been up and Mr. Gradwohl's dry weather woman out. Be sides this the barometer has been up to 30:20, which makes the whole weather transaction quite inexplicable. The wind has been in the south, though, and white flags and weather women don't have much to do with the matter then. Our citizens have been kickinir quite tenerally to-day ; but that will not do any good, Things l' will come out about right. -i An Alarm. About 8 o'clock an alarm f was sounded on the fire bell, and immedi- J atcly everybody took It for granted the fire . was in the vicinity ot the "three alarm" af- fair. A barrel of straw had caught on fire I in the rear of Parker Uros. bakery, and i in the alley. Just why the alarm ras given we do not" know. Perhaps to ascertain if I our fire boys can run as fast in Albany as J in Seattle. I New Co Yesterday, Messrs. B. M. i Huston, J. A. Mcl'cron, W; T. Hearst and i E. E. Parker formed a partnership in the 1 dray business under the name of Huston & J Co. These are all reliable, steady men, I and will make a safe company. They have f four trucks. Mr. Col. Hurkhart retires, and, we understand, lias purchased a pat ent tongue supporter, a fine thing by the way, which he will sell to the farmers of Linn county. Very Brief. The following is an ac count of about as brief career In a partic ular capacity as it is often ones fate to meet : "Pitt Smith, recently killed in Graham, Idaho, while discharging his duty as an officer, arrived at the place S where he met his death, on the 27th nil., was appointed Deputy Sheiiff on the 2yth- lie had formerly nerved as deputy under i flicnil liner, at Boise, and had won a rep I utation or nerve and coolness in the face 1 of danger, but like many another such I whose lines are cast on the outposts of civ i ilization, he crossed the nath of a 'irun- nghter whose quick eye, unerring aim and iiiuiuerous instincts, lurnisncd tnc nine miniirr camn with n 'man for breakfast.'

District Attorney Hewitt leaves to-morrow for Tillamook county, where he will be initiated in his new office on Monday. Hon Wm Cyrus, of Scio, has heon in the city to-day. II o reports a slight riist on spring wheat, but nothing serious yet. Fred Davis, who was recently shot on the McConuell farm, reiulting in the loss of a log, we are jdid to know is slowly improv itig anu will recover. Persons who pay cash fur their merchan dise usually find a cash store and secure the bonulit of cash prices, This is one of the reasoDS why F L Kenton is selling so many groceries. Prof W H Lee left yesterday noon for San Francisco by tho way of Yaquina. He will attend the National Educational Association and will be depended on to see most all that will transpire Ihero. A Greek P. M. The Portland Tel yra.n gives the following account of a very green kind of an official: "This rootairg a United States deputy marshal lodged in the county jail here Postmaster Joseph Bassett, of New bridge, Union county, for embezzlement, Soou after his arrival here a Telegram ropre -sentiye had a brief ebat with the defaulter. He proved to be one of the greenest criminals one can easily conceive. In answer to the question as to whether he was changed with embezzlement, he replied, "I don't know what you mean." "Did yon steal any money while acting as postmaster?" again asked the reporter. "Ob, yes!" rejoined Bassett; ' id I guess I may just rs well plead guilty." The facts in connection with his crime are that recently a registered letter containing $260 reached bis office perhaps the largest sum ne ever neia in nis nauas ac once, judg ing from his appearance. The temntation was great; he abstracted the money from the letter and had a 'good time with the boys witn ic FROM 1'IUNKVIIXK PAPKIW. Uncle Bart Allen, of Llnr, county, broth, crof Messrs 13.

A heavy waterspout fell on Upper Trout creek on Saturday of last week, though very little damage wasdonc. Knox Hus ton informs us that nearly four inches of water fell within a half hour. Mr. Zcbar, who hah charge of the W. V. it C. M. surveying party near Camp Polk, was in town yesterday. The surveyors, Mr. Cdiar rfays, are getting along nicely, locating the company's land. We understand the proprietors of the stage line have reduced the freight char ges from The Dalles hereto five cents per pound, and the passengers fare to $22 for tnc round trip. Lige Sparks was over from Squaw creek yesterday. He says the Wasco sheep men are crowding the summer ranges greatly to the detriment of the stock raisers of that section. There are about 50,000 Wasco sheep now In the mountains west of Camp Polk. Years ago Princville had the unpleasant reputation of being one ui the roughest places in the State, but recently it has re deemed itself. Strangers who attended the celebration say they never saw a more orderly or better behaved crowd than were assembled here on that day. The daily mail service between here and The Dalles began last Monday, which is a convenience we have longhoped for. The proprietors of the new line make excellent time, arriving here about 6 p. m., and it is to be hoped will continue to give us such ef ficient service. Till Glaze, four years ago, declared that he would roll across the street, wet or dry, if Cleveland was elected. All the metrop olitan journals (nearly all of them) copied the fact. Now, Till says, if Cleveland is re-elected, he will roll, free of charge, from Ed. White's saloon to the crossing of the inner ditch at Caiy's market. Ten to one that Till will toll. TEMPERANCE COLUMN. The Newcomer. The Silverton Appeal hits the immigrants a hard dig as follows: Most of the immigration to this section of Oregon is of the hop and skip kind. Tliey hop into the town in the evening and skip out the next morning. They want land but they want it for nothing, a giind-stone a lit'le litter of pigs and a milch eow throws in, They come from all part -of the Union, anil gallop over the state with the speed of the wind, poking their noses in this part or that of Oregon, only to be up and flying gniog wnitner, no one Knows or cares, whoop. ing, rustling never Daying.
