The good Lord sends us these lovely

blooming in gardens in McMinnville,

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. It

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?

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.
