The good Lord sends us these lovely days to dry up an intolerable mud *n our streets, else this city would be as bad as Salem, where the streets re semble one vast sewer.

Ripe strawberries in Salem on the 31st, growing in the open air, flowers blooming in gardens in McMinnville, and 18,(00 fish at one haul on Puget sound, last week, are the latest start ling facts on production in the Pacific northwest. Tangent farmers haul their wheat to Albany because of the excessive freight charges on the OCR : $20 per car to Portland, 86 miles, and $18 per car to Albany, seven miles. Wheat is selling at 60 cents in Tangent but on account of cheap rates over the OPR is worth 64 in Albany, which is caus ing large quantities to move in that direction. W. J. Garrison and several other In dian war veterans, from Yamhill county, attended the reunion in Port land Tuesday and listened to the able address by Hon. Elwood Evans. The Oregonian published the address in full, ft is a very able document on the subject of the Indian wars of 1855- 6; the authorities and people of Ore- <oh and Washington findicated.

One reason why the proper name of cape Hancock is not recognized for cape Disappointment at the mouth of the Columbia, is because of another cape Hancock near Atlanta, to pro duce confusion of terms. Blood will tell, but it is not the purest in Tom Mountain jr., of Port land, who has a first class reputation as a political trickster and dead beat. His double dealing got good men into trouble, including Sheriff' Thomas Jordan. Ever since we came here we have begged the farmers to write for the Reporter. A county paper to be com plete should have news for all inter ested, and pray who in this county are more interested for what is en lightening to them in their calling than the farmers?

We desire to inform the public that we have lately lidded a line of Roils to our Mill,to gether with the necessary machinery to make an A No. I Article of Flour, And have the same in Himoessful <>is>mtion. While we do not olaiiu to make The Best Roller Flour In the State, We do claim to make ah nrtiolo The Murder Excitement. The only topic that calls a group of men together in Yamhill county these days is the murder of 1). I. Corker. Great excitement prevails in Lafayette, where the investigation has proceeded since Tuesday, under direction of Coroner Narver. Suspicion rests upon two men, strongly supported by cir cumstantial evidence, and the pent up feelings of an outraged community is liable to explode at any moment, with a vengeance swift and speedy in its execution. It were better to let the strong arm of the law assert itself by systematic methods, particularly when it is possible that an innocent man is made a victim of mi-plaeee suspicion ; and in this case, while it is true that strong circumstances would seem to point to the accused as the guilty pair, the better judgment of the people should be coolly invoked to temper the justified wrath of a community so grossly shocked as this has been. That this murder is without a parallel in the history of Oregon is too true. It closely resembles the Delaney trag edy of years long gone by in Marion county, and the thread of circum stances connecting the suspicions in this case is more certain in our esti- nnrtion than those which connected Beade and Baker with the murder of Delaney. At all events, let the law take its course. MISCELLANEOUS. . . , ,4 = Second, to ZTone. —AH A— Straight Grade Family Flour, And far better limn can tie made on Stone« alone.

This is the time of venr when Merchants all begin to show low prices. We realize that permanent tiade cannot be made unless one has the cor rect styles and correct prices. We are selling goods at aston ishingly low prices on the mer its of our wares. We know that there are no better styles of Clothing, no better fitting, no better made than ours, and we believe that no one in Mc Minnville is selling Clothing as cheaply as we are. We only ask an inspection of our goods and a comparison of prices. BI8H0I’ 4 KAY.
