With; others he was working on the road in the vicinity, and had occasion to drive his team down a steep hill over .which the road:' passes near- the Pern . Starr plaee. It is understood that.: there . was, no breeching to the harness worn by his team, and it is sup- iwsed that the brake failed - to bold and - the wagon ran onto -the horses. At any rate, while the horses were n full flight the wagon upset at the bot tom of the bill - and the driver was thrown violently to the ground. The wagon was torn to pieces. When friends reached Mr., Tharp he was still alive, but he only survived a few mm utes. Death was caused by injuries in the head. Corvalhs Times. A Vicious BulL :K. X.

Wyatt went to Tallman yester day afternoon to Investigate a com plaint baue by somo of the trainmen that the wires of some ot the indepen dent; farmers' telephone lines, where they are over the tracks, were a menace to trainmen. Mr.-Wyatt Iound that la three places the wires cross the rail road , track, on poles fully thirty feet high, sufficiently high to be out or the way of trains or men standing on the top of box ears. But he also found that the wires are attached .to glass insulat ors on the tojm of the poles instead of being plaeed on erossarms, and this is a menace. In eases , where boys throw rock at the insulators or shoot at them and the glass is broken, the wire, sag ging down, comes suflieiently low to en danger, the men on top of the freight trains While the trains are running un der tho wire.' Fort his reaaon is it do- sired-to nave the wires placed on.insu lators attached to the upper Side of erossarms, for if so arranged a broken insulator-would not permit the wire to sag, as it Would fall on the erossarm and. would remain high enough not to become a menaec to the safety of . qf the trainmen. The owners of the tele phone linos have been asked to remedy this matter, and if tnis is not done the railroad company proposes to, go into eonrt and enjoin " the construction of telephone lines in the manner complain ed of in orders to protect the lives of the trainmen passing over tho j road. - Albany Herald. - j !

Another View. Not ' long sinee the liegister printetl a story taken from the Bead Bulletin, in which were riven a few proofs of tne advantages in irrigation n applied through the Deschutes system, all of the same being calculated to inspire confidence in the worth of that terri tory as an agricultural section. The items as stated in tho Bulletin must be taken as authentic for a newspaper docs not publish such things out of whole cloth. However, a Kugene man, just returned from a trip of several weeks, .in whieh time : he covered a large part of that section and examined conditions along his route, tells a very different story. He did not see a single instance of agricultural progress. Those who had gardens bad raised nothing, the plants having been repeatedly cut down by frosts. The soil, he said, is so poms .that a small patch which had water turned on it Saturday night was not watered until Monday morn ing, owing to the escape, of water into the earth, and even then, within a very short time the earth" is as dry as ever before. It therefore seems there is a discrepancy somewhere in the esti mates of the "productiveness of the soil and its adaptibility to irrigation. Kegister. Well Along in Years. A. W".
