Reub Harris, who ha* been off knocking about for the good of hid health, returned from East of the Mountains, last week, looking as fresh and hearty as a young man. J. T. Hembree and family toft for their new home in East Portland, on Wednesday. Some little of the very late grain is still uncut; the continued smoke, with the late fogs and light showers has retarded the rip ening. It rained here during the afternoon of the 6th. since which time the smoke has disap peared nearly altogether, while clouds and an occasional drizzle hue taken its place. There is a two story frame building going up in the rear of John Hulery’s saloon—the lower story to be used as a wood-shed, the upper part, nobody knows what. T. O. Hutchinson, engaged to teach the next term of school, has arrived and fixed himself up for his time. Al. Snyder, of the R epobteb , was in town Friday, and made things quite lively ail round here for a while. Come again, Al. Snizzlekin says that “our boys are not dudes at home, but think they’s dude when they go to Portland.” White winter wheat is now considered the best for fall sowing, because that was the only kind that stood the frost of last winter. Those who were fortunate enough to have that variety in last fall, were saved the ex- tra expense ond trouble of resowing, and had good crops. It is advertised for sale by several, at $1 to f 1.60 per bushel. Quite a number go to Portland, to-day, to view the last spike celebration, and to feast their eyes with a sight of all the great na bobs that Mr. Villard invited to see us in our wild western home. beautiful and grand as this world is, it has ite drawbacks—drawbacks in the shape of plagues, posts, cranks, fiends, etc. But the worst plague, the meanest p©6t. the crankiest crank and most hellish fiend of the lot, is the whittling fiend. You can al ways know him at sight by the knife in hi» hand, and nothing escapes it. Have you a new fence, nicely painted and finished ? He stops to admire it, and as ho saunters along or stops to admire, hia knifo is busy : a chip out of this picket, a notch out of that rail, a job at tho gate-post, and so on till your fsuco looks as if it might have been a breast work in a rifle engagement or artillery fight. Does be stop to talk to you at your door ? in goes the knife and out comes a chip from the post or panel, which ho Jays along liia thumb and whittles to a point. You invit« him into your house and give him your best chair to sit on ; he is no sooner seated than his ey^s wander after something to whittle, but there is nothing within his Teach. He begins to feel discouraged, when. Gh, glory ! he sees a little of the seat of bis chair between his logs; there is no hesitation no thought of the injury to bedone ; in goes the knife, first with a cut to the right, then, with the left thumb pressed against the blade to assist, another cut from the left, aud out comes a chip ; and again he cut*, and again, until you are forced to remind him that be is disfiguring tho chair, when, mon likely, ho will look up in blank aston ishment and remark that “it don’t hurt it much/’ Wherever you go you will find marks of thiB indefatiguable hell cat. Fen ces, porches, pews, chairs, tables, desks, trees—everything, without regard to time, place or ownership, falls a prey to this inc-st aggravating and contemptible of all pests, the whittling fiend, Down with him. N at . SH^HXDAN. Sept. 10 1883 Oregon wist. Good-bye, smoke and dust. Go and hear the new preacher. It rained a light shower Saturday. Capt. Lafollett sawed his thumb only half off. On Tuesday a little scrimmage ocoured between two very quiet citizens in our streets. One of them commenced striking and clawing at the eyes of the other, when lie shoved him off and armed himself with a powerful and deadly weapon in the shape of a piece of plank over a foot long, three inches wide and half an inch thick, when the bystanders interfered and separated them. The conservators of the peace wade no arrests. These are dog days; that’s what’s the matter. It is claimed by the threshing crew com posed of some of our best citizens, who were present at the row between Stewart and Mc Donald, and the men of the neighborhood, that we did them injustice in our last batch of items wherein we intimate that a great crime had been committed and noone would arrest the criminal. It is claimed that Mc Donald and the whole neighborhood are of the, opinion that no crime had been commit ted and consequently no one would swear out a warrant, and we must say, after hear ing the evidence, that we believe they were right. Mr. Stewart had no trouble whatever in securing bonds. The complaint was made by parties in Sheridan, and a good deal of hard feeling is caused thereby. As the whole matter will go before the Grand Jury, we will not comment on the evidence. 8. D an . Will C. King lectured at this place last Wednesday night to a good house.
