DEATH OF CHARLES LIND. Last Monday afternoon CharleB Lind was found dead at his home on Willow creek, six miles east of Lexington. Ap pearances indicated that he died from heart disease and had fallen from his chair while seated at the dinner table. In early life Charles Lind wlis a sailor. After leaving the sea he followed min ing for a time, and about sixteen years ago settled upon his present ranch, where he has since been engaged in stock-raising. He was well liked by all who knew him, and was regarded as a good neighbor and a man of sterling in tegrity. He was unmarried and aged about fifty years. The funeral took place at Ifeppner on Tuesday last. Profit In Flax. The attention of all thinking farmers is directed to the letter of "South Spring Sage" in this issue. In common with the Ik'ixiKT, the "Sage" thinks flax would be a paying crop in Morrow county. We would liko to hear from others on the same subject. The matter of flax-growing is at least worthy of at tention and experiment, and we do not doubt that a thorough test would dem onstrate it to be a profitable crop here. Dance at the Armory. As announced in another column, preparations are being made for a ball at the armory on Wednesday evening of next week. Good music will be in at tendance, the floor will be in tho best possible condition, strict order will be maintained, and those in charge of the alluir assure a pleasant evening to all who attend. The supper at the Lex ington hotel will be exactly suited to the wants of the tired dancers. FROM SOUTH SPRING. The "Sage" Sends Some News Items and a Valuable Hint for Fanners. For the lk'naKT, Quite a number are afflicted with bad colds in this section. Rev. Mr. Feak, of Echo, was in the neighborhood Monday and Tuesday. J. C. Armstrong left on the 3d instant to attend the Portland business college. J. S. Tower has out ou the range thirty head of cattle which he cannot find. The jack-rabbits are helping them selves to the haystacks in this locality. Why not have a bounty on rabbits? The M. E. quarterly conference will be held at Pine City on the first and second of February by Pastor Feak and Presiding Elder O. M. Booth. The directors of school district No. 23 have lined the school house with thick paper, making it more comfortable for the teacher ttiid pupils these frosty days. Those who were out sleigh-riding last Sunday evening experienced a very cool ing atmosphere. The mercury dropped nineteen and one-half dogiees in a tittle overun hour, reaching seventeen and a half below zero before six o'clock. One boy went home with frozen ears. WHY NOT TRY FLAX ? In a recent issue of the Budokt the question was asked, "Why would not flax-raising he profitable for the farmers of Morrow county?" According to all the information your correspondent can glean it would pay better than raising wneat. for the past two years wild flax has been coming up in the wheat fields in this locality, and lust year came near choking out the wheat in some places. Since the fall rains wild ilax lias come up very thickly on some pieces of summer-fallow. In talking with an experienced farmer from Dayton, Wash., on the subject, he said: "Where wild flax grows thrifty you can rest assured that tame flax wifl mnko a good crop. Farmers in the Dayton country have made more money from flax than'wheat. The price of flax is always better than that of wheat; so if the yield was the same, there would be more gain in the flax." Another encouraging feature is that the linseed oil mills built in Port land hist year consume thousands of bushels of flax seed annually, making a home demand which is bound to in crease the value of flax and make the raising of it a rofttuhlo industry for us poorly remunerated 'w heat-raisers. The writer wants to try a few acres of flax next season. Let us hear from others on tho subject. Soi Tit Si-kino Sauk, Smth. Simiino, January 11, lwio. EICHT MILE CENTER. A Batch of Interesting Items from a Pros perous Neighborhood. For the IlrrxiKT. Mrs. W. F. Halley is on the sick list. C. E. Jones is the proud father of a ten-pound boy, born on December 31st. Tho chinook last Wednesday caught cold and ended up w ilh a small flurry of snow. Robert Veateh, whose leg was broken some time ago, is able to be around again. Tho infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Jake Young lias been quite sick, but is im proving. A.J.Coleman, of Democrat gulch, is the young man's friend another fine daughter. ii. W. Hyatt, of Democrat gulch, is also the happy father of another bright eyed girl. John Brown, from the Willmnette val ley, is visiting Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Hayes at Eight Mile Center. Chester Haines, who lias been on a trip to Colorado, via the trail, returned to Eight Mile in time for the holidays. Bruce Haines, while on his way from the mountains last week, overturned his wagon and came near breaking his leg. Wright Saling has just received his set of new blacksmithing tools, and will open up in the shop formerly occupied by Theodore Downing. The debate at the Hooker school house last Thuisday evening was postponed on account of the festival at Eight Mile Center ou the same night. The school in Hooker district is pro gressing finely, with Mrs. A. M. Sloeuin as teacher. She is giving entire satis faction and is liked by all. Last Thursday, while leading a horse into the stable past another, Ed Rood received a kick on the leg from the horse in the stall. The blow was severe, but no bones were broken. The New Year dance was one of the most enjoyablo events of the season, the merry crowd dancing until broad daylight. The supper was served at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ira Miller, who know just how to get up a supper for such an occasion. lvr;t. Eiuiit Milk Ckntkr, January 10, I Wo. FOR PROCRESS. A Correspondent Suggests a Building and Loan Association. For the Bcoget. I am well pleased with your paper and see that you are working hard toward building up the tow n and sur rounding country. I would suggest that a building and loan association be es tablished, and think that it would be one of the best things that could be done. In my belief it would help to build up the town and neighborhood faster than a bank or almost any other institution that could be named. Five years ago when I was in Olympia a building and loan association was started there, and during three meetings about sixty members were obtained, who took from three to five shares each. Several buildings were commenced immedi ately. Since its organization it has been a great benefit to the town, and I gee by the Ilt ixicT that the one at Weston is also doing well. If the people of Lex ington and vicinitv should organize one I am sure it would be greatly to their advantage. I would take a few shares myself, and think I could get others to join the association.

Eight Mile Center against the world 1 Buzz. Kiuiit Mu.t I'ENTKK, January 10, 1SU0. FROM SAND HOLLOW. For tho Kcikikt. Oscar Waller, of Milton, was visiting friends in this vicinity last week. Rev. W. C. Gallalier and family have moved to Hardman for the winter. Mrs. Annie Hansell has been on the sick list, but is rapidly convalescing. Several sheep herders will be 'wanted in this neighborhood as soon as spring opens. 8. M. Bririgham came in from Long Creek last week and took the stage for Pendleton, where his family reside. "Two daughters, then a son; I think the world is well begun." So sang Tom McConnell when his new boy tipped tho beam at eight pounds on the morning of the 3d instant. O. W. Hansell lias advertised to prove up on his timber culture claim, and will have no trouble to do so, as he has the requisite number of tirst-class trees, principally black locust. A petition has been circulated and signed by all except two within a terri tory of over ten square miles, asking that a postollice be established on the former site of the Alpine office. A re monstrance has also been circulated by the postmistress at Alpine asking that the wish of the petitioners be not granted. Why a community who is supplied with good postollice facilities should thus re monstrate against the location of an office for the accommodation of an ad joining community is more than the pe titioners can understand. A majority of the signers of the remonstrance, how ever, are children and those who have signed it under the impression that it was an elioit to remove the Alpine office. Soi.kmn Sam. Band Hollow, Jan. 10, IKK). ON CLARK CANYON. At Clark canyon school bouse on Fri day night of last week a social dance was indulged in by some of the residents of that neighborhood. The music was fur nished by Wm. Campbell and F. S. Mills. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Lieuullen, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Hunt, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Camp bell, Mrs. O. E. Mack, Miss Maggie bhick, Miss Ida Shick, Miss Cassie Hunt, Miss Rosa Benge, Isaiah Wren. Nat Shaw, Warden Shaw, Eddy Hunt, Willie Hunt, Oscar Hunt, Allie Depuy, Ralph Benge, Fred Bongo, F. S. Mills, Lou Markham, Albert Shick, Patrick Spleen, Albert Willis. For Democrats. In politics or anything else we cannot all think alike. To democrats who want a paper that is an able exnonent of the principles of the democratic party we ofTer the New York World and the Bt noET at the reduced price of $1.80 for the two. Beside the general news of the day the World contains a large amount of matter of especial interest to farmers. THE HUNT ROAD. Probable Connection with Another Line, by way of Heppner. By the following, from the J'.'iiaf Ore gonian, it-will be Been that the Hunt road W'll probably cross Morrow county during the coming summer. This move was not entirely unexpected by thoso who have been watching closely the pos sibilities in railroad matters, and will be likely to lead to other developments, perhaps a continuation of the Willow Creek branch of the O. U. & N. road : A mortgage was filed lato Saturday evening in the clerk's oHiee, from the O. & W. T. to the Farmers' loan and trust company, of New York, as trustee. It is given to secure six per cent bonds to be issued and aggregating not more than $25,000 for every mile of road con structed or in contemplation for the expressed purpose of extending Hunt's line from Pendleton in a southwesterly direction to a point "at or near Heppner, in Morrow county." The exact nature of the enterprise in contemplation is hard to determine, but that it means more than the building of a road to Heppner cannot bo doubted. It is believed that the road will not stop at Heppner, but that this is nieroly an initial step in a grand scheme to connect with the Oregon and Nevada in southern Oregon, and thus Willi the Central Pa cific, or with the Oregon Pacific leading fioni Yaquina bay. That Hunt's ideas and purposes are not bounded by the comparatively narrow sphere of eastern Washington and Oregon is now fully ap parent. Hunt is a man of surprises, and there will probably be greater astonish ers in store before the now youthful 1800 becomes gray w ith age and is gathered to itB fathers. The impression prevails that the route of the proposeil road is us follows: Down Stage gulch to Foster, where the river will be crossed ; thence through the meadows and up Butter creek toward Heppner.
