Mr. J. M. Sabin, the very gentle

then appear.
Joseph Riggs of Sweet Home, called
Monday. We learn from him that he
and T. A. Morris are in the bucher
business and are furnishing a first
. class article of meat at 6 and 7 cents.
Mr. Riggs says the civps in his vicin
it 3- are very good.
R. Messier, the gentleman who has
Mccn employed by Mr. Cheadle in the
manufacture of cheese, left for Gervais
on Tuesday last. Mr. Messier is a
first-class cheese maker, and all who
have sampled his make speak of it in 1
the highest terms.
R. D. San font, one of the heavy mel
on growers of J rephene county, was
in town Tuesday making arrange
ments with our grocery men to handle
melons this season. He has 40 acres,
and says there are over 100 acres being
cultivated within sight of his resi
dence. f Mr. R. P. Scanland of this place, on
Monday next will be 80 years of age.
During this summer he has attended
to four gardens, and done a great deal
of other quite heavy work. He is in
good health, and from his appearance
we were surprised when he said he was
four times twenty.
In another column will be found the
"ad" of Thompson A Waters, Browns
ville. It will be seen this enterprising
firm are determined to dispose of their
summer stock at reduced rates. Dur-1
Ing our stay in their town this firm j
was very literal in their patronage to
us and we take pleasure in commend
ing them to the public.
. D. Myers & Co. of Scio, have the con
traet for building a large warehouse for
the O. P. company at Scio Junction, to
be completed by September 1st. The
contract price is $10,000. The house is
intended for the storage of grain. The
Junction is about one mile from Scio
on the farm of B. F. Munkers, and is
very agreeably located for the accom
modation of Scio and vicinity.
On Monday last we did a nice card
for W. C. Peterson & Co., in two colors.
We appreciate the kind regards these
gentlemen have for us. Their liberal
ity and enterprise will certainly bring
to their business the success it merits.
Advertising is a scheme v hich always
wins. As their "ad" and card assert,
W. C. P. & Co., are thoroughly equip
ped with everything new and complete
in the livery business.
Ti. N. .Morris passed through town
'on Tuesday last with his steam thresh
er. From him we learn that the av
erage of wheat per acre so far is about
twenty bushels. He has quite an ex
tensive outfit, consisting of engine,
thresher, water wagon and seven other
teams and wagons for hauling grain.
Durinsr one afternoon last week he several
cleaned up 970 bushels of wheat, which
may be termed a crack run.
The Astorian hits the nail on the
head when in speaking of the lynch
ing of Kelty in Polk county it says,
the whole wretched business is simply
a ease of cause and effect. Men see
murderers go unpunished; that is the
cause; they occassionally get tired of
.law's loopholes and take the law in
their own bands; that is the effect.
Both are wrong and to be condemned,
but as long as men murder and go free,
eo long there will be lynch law.
We publish this week notice of teach
ers, examination from which it will be
seen that private, examinations are
practically done away with; hence it
Is cf the utmost Importance for thos3
desiring certificates, to be present 011
time. The date of holding said exam
ination la August 81st. Mr, Held
County Supt., says to us that no pri
vate examinations wilt be granted un
less of absolute necessity, which Is in
accordance with the school law adopted
by the last session of the legislature.
J. D. Scharfi", the enterprising sales
man or tl m firm of Neustauter Bros.,
Portland, was in town Satifrday and
Monday. lie Is one of the "boys"
who believes In printers Ink, or In
other words, likes to see the printer
live, that he may wear out some of the
excellent clothing of the very exten
sive house he represents. There are
but few who do not know of the merits
of the Boss of the Road Overall and
Standard TVhite Shirts, of which the
above named firm liberally advertised
in this paper some time ago.
O. W. Smith, F,sq., of this place, a
few days ago completed his wind mill
and tank house which are really or
naments as well vtry useful accommo
dations .to his very desirable property
on Main strtet. The tank house at the
base li fourteen feet square, the j
ground lloor being used as a wash
house, the next floor as a dry house
and Usith room. It is supplied with a
stove and all other appliances for a
well regulated concern of this kind. 1 1
is of great value for Irrigating purposes,
as the 'Squire's beautiful, green yard
and abundand crop of vegetables will
bear wlthess.
On Friday last we received a very
pleasant call from Mr. C. N. Scott, the
accommodating and efficient receiver
and manager of the O. R'y. He was
accompanied Ky Wm. E. Fnjeer and
was returning from an extended tour
throughout the northern part of the
county. They had visited many of
the farmers and we are pleased to know
that all are in the best of spirits over
prospects of good prices for their grain,
and also feel encouraged tiow.thAt the
Narrow Gauge road is in position to
help them out in the shipment of their
grain to market. This road connect
ing as it does with the O. P., will nat
urally have an important say in rates
to Yaquinri, while it has the advantage
of river transportation from Ray's
Landing to Portland, Oregon City, Sa
lem and other points on tne river." We
regard the Narrow Guagt road as leing
more favorably situated so as to benefit
the farmers contiguous to it than any
of the other lines, and we believe Mr.
iBuott will not forget the farmers' inter
ests in his endeavors to secure a liberal
tratYle for the road.

We were much Pleased with the
Appeal to Women" that appeared In
your columns, aud realize the truth ot
every word of It, as tills work Is one In
which every woman in our state, and
nation, should be interested and will
ing to give their best ellbrts to Its ulti

this fact, to should like to extend the
appeal to the voters of our country, as

If not more of the responsibility of this
matter than the other sex.
The organization known as the W.

become a power felt and acknowl

thl ) terrible traffic In human souls that
Is sapping the very foundations of our
government. They are doing a great
ileal in the way of teaching the chil
dren and youth the evil eli'eels or alco
holics 011 the human system, so that
we hope for great things when they
come to the voters of our nation. But
that Is a slow process, aud if we have
to wait for that time many of us ma)'
not live to see it. As we have not the
power of driving this great curse from
our midst by one stroke, as you voters
of Oregon could do, were you so In
clined, we appeal to you In the name
of humanity to conic to the rescue, ami
by your ballots 011 the 8th of Novem

once and foreVtT of the whole liquor
traffic In our fair state. We feel that
we have the right to ask this nt your
hands, as in-lng our representatives In
state affairs, and realizing the power
of the lml lot, we do not see how any
man can do otherwise than cast his

Moet counties of the state have paul
in full to the state treasurer state tax
es of 188B. These are as follows: 15en
ton, Clackamas, Columbia, Douglas,
Linn, Yamhill, Coos, Curry, Gilliam,
Grant, Jackson, Josephine, Klamath,
Lane, Morrow and Multnomah. Tlie
first six named of these have balances
placed to their credit on next year's
taxes. This is because of the action of
the last legislature, which reimbursed
certain counties for moneys paid by
them for mortgage taxes which they
were "compelled to refund to the own
ers of mortgages. Baker county has
delinquencies for every year but two
from 1S70. Clatsop, Crook, Polk, Til

ington are delinquent in various
amounts, some on 188G taxes, and oth
