Af&OLUTEEY PURE
SHALL STOCK RUN AT LARGE.
A Question Which Will Be Voted Upon
in Linn County In June.
A good many people perhaps have
hot given much attention to one ques
tion which is to lie voted upon in the
approaching election lu Linn county.
It is whether or not stock shall run at
large.
The law on the subject passed in 1893
la as follows:
Section 1. On the petitiot, of one
hundred or more legal voters of any
county in the state being filed with the
county clerk before the time of giving
the notice of the general election In
any year, the county clerk shall eauBO
notice to be given that at such election
a vote wil be taken for aud against
stock running at large.
Section 2. In voting for and against
stock running at. large, it shall be
printed or written on tbe same ballot
with candidates for county offices, and
shall read, "For ruunlug at large
Yes," or "For running at large No,"
and the votes thus cast shall be can
vassed as those for auy county officer.
Section 8. If the majority of all
the votes cast shall be against stock
running at large, the couuty clerk
shall give notice by publishing in some
newspaper for three consecutive weeks
that in sixty days from the date of said
notice It will' be unlawful for stock to
run at large under penaltyof ten dollars
for the first offense and twenty dollars
for each and every subsequeut offense,
to be recovered from the oWnet of the
stock lu civil action in the name of the
stat" of Oregon before a justice of the
peace iu tbe precinct in which such
owner or keeper, or either of them,
may reside; and such penalty shall be
for the benefit of, and wheu collected,

fund of the county in which suoh
action is brought within sixty days
after such animal is proved to be at
large.
Section 4. No prosecution shall be
commeuced to reoover the penalties
named in Section 8 until at least one
day's notice has been given to the
owner or person having charge of such
slock, if such owner or keeper be
known: and It shall be sufficient de
fense to such prosecution to show that
such auimal or animals were at large
without the knowledge of suoh owner
or keeper, and without his fault; pro
vided, that after tbe owner has been
once notified that his stock 1b running
at large, it will not be ueccBsary to
notify such owner or keeper on the
stock being found at large a second
time, if it is known and is susceptible
of proof that such owner or keeper is
aware that such stock Is ruunlug at
large contrary to the provisions of this
act.
Section 5. Any person fiuding any
stock at large, coutrary to the provis
sions of this act, aud any constable of
any precinct or marshal of any city of
this county where stock may oe rouna,
on view or Information, shall take up
suoh stock and confine the sime forth
with, giving notice thereof to the
owner or keeper, if kuown, and if not
known, by posting notices, describing
such animals therein, iu at least three
public places lu the precinct; aud if
the owner or keeper does not appear
and claim his property, and pay all
charges for taking up, advertising and
keeping the Baine, within ten days
from the date of this notice, the Bale of
the animals may be proceeded with
under the law relating to estrays, pro
vided,, however, that the provisions of
this act shall not apply to any couuty
east of the Cascade mountains, except
ing Umatilla.
The required petition has been filed
with the clerk, and the question will
appear upon the ticket to be voted
upon.

TENNESSEE HAPPENINGS.
BY CSAB.
.,, Saturday, May 16, 1896.
Tennessee has t he honor now of pos
sessing the name of a separate and
Independent road district No. 20. The
petition was granted by the chief
magistrate of the county, Judge Dun
can, who appointed George Davis 88
Its first supervisor.
Prof. C. F. Blgbee, one of the ablest
nominees on the democratic ticket,
was at this place last week and vlBlted
the school. He is a former teacher
and resilient of this place and every
one was glud to see him back. He
delivered a short address to the schol
ars which was gladly received. .We
Indorse his nomination for superintend
ent and hope and believe he will be
elected.
Monna Fronk, who has been attend
ing school at Sodaviile, returned home
last week and alter a short visit went
to Albauy to al tend the teachers' ex
amination. George Ross, who has
been attending school In Lebanon,
also went to the examination.
IN MEMORY,
Mrs. Dulcina P. Ridgway, Grandma
Ridgway, as she was kuown by all her
frieuds, passed away' on May 2, 1896.
Though a constant sufferer for several
years she was ever patient in bearing
losses and enduring pain, and was
always pleased and grateful for the
smallest kindness or favor shown her.
Her christian faith aud cairn endur
auoe of palh and suffering, her kind
aud gentle ways, her sweet aud peace
ful face will long be remembered by
her many friends ami loved ones. ,
To her memory the following lines
were penned:
We have lain her 'neath the sod,
Where tbe grasses wave and blow.
Bhe has received tbe last fond token
From her loved ones here below.
Calm and patient here in life,
Enduring pain and bearing loss;
Now she's joined the throng immortal,
Received her crown, laid down her cross.
All her trials now are ended,
All her sufferings of pain are o'er;
She has gone to meet her loved ones
Over on the other shore.
We think not of tbe cold grave yonder,
Nor of her in pain distressed:
But think of her at home in heaven,
Of her joys, and peace, and rest.
Could wecatch but one glimpse only, '
Of her face so pure and bright,
It would turn our hearts of sadness
Into one of Joy and light,
We would not call her back
From that dear home so blest;
Yet we miss her, sadly miss her,
But rest on, O dear one, rest !
For we know that she is waiting,
Over on yon shining shore,
Waiting to welcome each dear one,
Where we'll meet to part no more.
