The judge feels that he has been placed in a false light in reference to his attitude toward the improvement of the Yamhill river, it having been alleged that he had filed a protest against the location of the dam and locks on his place and threaten ing to mulct the government for damages. He says that he has made no protest, but on the contrary is in favor of the proposed improvement and that he offered to do nate the land necessary for the purpose. What he did do, be says, was to write a letter to General Alger apprising the government of certaiu facte in connection with the construction of the works. If located at the point he supposed they would be, unless care was observed to prevent it, overflow of his land would result, and he notified Gen. Alger that the government would be held responsi ble for any damages. Hie object, he ex plains, was to prevent such a contin gency by having the works properly con structed. We are bound to take Judge Denny at his word, but it is becoming more and more evident as the dilly-dally ing with this business progresses, that there is a nigger in the woodpile, and that some powerful agency is at work to prevent the carrying out of the project for which appropriations were secured some months agq. The question is, who are the people interested, and who are their agents? Our people are beginning to have a pretty clear idea about it. OA.STOHXA. G. S. Wright, dentist. Typewriter supplies at C.

His tongue will be coated, appetite poor, his teeth rusty, his breath abom inable. He is one, unmistakable sign of constipation. Tlie quickest, surest, easiest way to cure this trouble is to take Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. They are made of refined, concentrated vegetable extracts.
