Allison, Wheatland, 36 bush els, on both stubble and summer fallow. This is said to be a common yield in that neighborhood. Chas. Kuykendall, North Yamhill, 33 bushels. John Winnerherg, Carlton, 30 bushels on stubble land, and 36 on fallow. B. Durst, Bellevue, 63 bushels. Wm. Schmidt, McMinnville, 37 bush els. Mr. Millen, Dayton, 52. Robert McDonald, McMinnville, 37S bushels. Jack Olsen, Carlton, 70 bushels. But little wheat seems to be threshed in the vicinity of Sheridan. Jonathan Todd, who came through from the coast on Saturday, saw but one field threshed all the way from Grand Ronde to five miles below Sheridan. It is estimated that during the five good days last week 200,000 bushels were threshed in this county. Some- thing like one-fourth this amount bas been brought to the warehouses in this city.

The engine was clear over the animal when it stopped, and the wonder is it wasn't derailed. The train was delayed one hour by the mishap. ■ The fall quarter at McMinnville col- lege will begin next Wednesday, Sept. 13th. The building has been put in good order, new general study arrange ments made, and everything is neat and inviting for the opening of the new school year. At 10 o’clock there will be a public opening exercise, as usual, in the chapel. To this the public is cor dially invited. Rev. G. W. Grannis, D. D , « ill deliver the annual opening day address. New members of the faculty will be presented ; special attention will be directed to a number of new portraits of ex-presidents and other leaders in the work of the college in the past, which have been recently presented to the in stitution and which now adorn the chapel walls; and the president will make announcements respecting the work of the coming year. It is hoped that there may be a large attendance at this morning exercise on opening day. At 2 o’clock p. m. will occur the enroll ment and classification of students. It is desired that students shall report fur registration on the opening day of the term in so far as is possible. All new students applying for admission in the regular classes must present certificates of the work done in the public or other schools; otherwise they will be required to pass examination for admission. Let all graduates of the public and high schools remember to bring certificates of work done. This will be required. AH students, whether regular, special, stu dents in the department of music, or other, will be required to register in the office of the president before taking up their work H. L. B oardman , President. Two Commitmen 1«. Thos. Henry Blair of Amity, aged 56 years, was adjudged insane on August 30th, and was taken to the asylum. He was not violent, but had the delusion that his wife and daughter were trying to poison him. Clyde Hobson, the six-year-old non of Edgar Hobson of Newberg, ever since he was six months old has been a ner vous wreck, due to severe paroxysms incident to teething. He constantly moves about in a restless and searching manner, during waking hours, and has been a great care to his people. Hie commitment was prayed for on Tuesday, and was granted by the court. Cal breath the Man ! Gov. Geer, State Treasurer Moore and Secretary of State Dunbar on Tuesday appoint ed Dr. J. F. Colbreath of this city to be euperintendent of the state insane asylum, his term of service beginning IA January 1st, 1990. This is a plum secured after n bard fight ¡.gainst able competi tors. anil The Reporter con. gratulate’ the Doctor on his success. The salary is $2,500 per year, and the term is four tears. Dr. Calbreath is well qualified for the place, and no one could have >>een appointed who will take a deeper interest in studying the cases of insanity under him. or applying the proper treatment therefor. To Mc Minnville people, too, it will seem more like home, should it come our turn to go over. Indeed, we see only one regret in the appointment, it will take the Doctor and his estimable family from the city for a few years.

Editor Reporter: My attention has been called to the item in last week's Transcript commenting favorably upon some remarks lately appearing in the Sheridan Sun to the effect that I ought to resign the chairmanship of the repub lican county central committee of Yam hill county. I have also read your very appropriate answer to the same in last week’s Reporter, for which I thank you. It seems strange to me that, after having given nearly 20 years’ service to the re publican party in Yamhill county, I lm no better understood than to suppose that 1 would hold on to said chairman ship to the detriment of the party in my county. As you have well said, I am still a resident, voter and taxpayer of the county. I have not moved away, neith er do I now know that 1 shall move away. I like the county and the people, and have the same interest in its welfare that I have always had. It seems to me that there is undue haste in urging mj resignation. Now, when I resign, I will have to do so to the committee, and not to the public, and everybody knows it would be almost impossible to get the committee together for three or four weeks yet, as the people must get their crops harvested. When the committee is called together, which will be done in due time, the matter of the chairman ship, and all other matters before them, can lie disposed of as the wisdom of the committee shall direct. I trust that the Transcript and Sun may feel satisfied with this statement, which is made in all kindness and good feeling towards them. Very truly yours, J. E. M agers , Chairman.
