The Sunday Welcome and the Dem-

ocratic Era, a new paper started inEast Portland, by J. W. Kelly, siinul

taneously in their lajjt week's issue,printed articles speculating upon the

political decapitations about to take

place in the federal oiiices in OregonThey state that Hon. J. C. Fullerton,of the Roseburg land office, will be re

placed by Dinger Hermann, ' a formei'incumbent of the office, and that Corais about to lose his plac on account ofhis and his father's (Mickey) devotionto Mitchell and his cause. It is no se

cret that Cora has, during the term of

his office, been a devout wcishiper ofth-- j great St. John, and it is alt"gethrlikely that he will rtire from tho office when his present appointment expires. But it would take a stretch of

imagination to believe that Hon. Din-

ger Hermann would give up his law

practice, which is worth three or fourtimes the salary, to accept a clerical po.sition in the land office. It may be

possible that there is more disaffectsonin the Republican camp, between thebosses and half-hree-ds here in Oregon,than ia generally known to outsider,ut there is no fight between Dolph

and Mitchell. They both serve thesame masters and were supported bythe same forces.

present conduct and waywardness.

During the lolidays our town presented a very quiet and orderly appearance and the marshal had no riots toouiet or drunkenness to combat. Ourmorals are beyond reproach and thosewho are addicted to immoral ways are 1

gently coming under the lash andquietly submit to moral suasion.

The Palmer Brothers .bought thesteam saw mill at this place two yearsago, from J. D. Johnson. They gettheir logs on Sandy, a small creek thatempties into Pass creek three milesabovc here. Last winter they did not

get all t'isir logs out of Sand creek,

owing to to a cedai tree falling beforethe logs when they were moring down.

By tho time the tree wa3 gotten outthe creek fell too low to float the logs,

With all their bad lue'e last winter

they have by close attention to businessand hard work made sove.-a- l thousanddollars. They had mora logs cut lastsummer, and on Christmas had sixteenor eighteen hundred logs on Sandy.

Christmas morning, at 3 o'clock, thePalmer brothers and hired men startedfrom hers to run the logs. They startedtho logs at daylight and were succeedingwell. Tne brothers were very much

elated, as they felt certain of making asmall fortune next summer. W. E.Palmer had boen on the logs, but

stepped ashor and was watching ln3

brothers on the floating logs when thedead top of a maple tree broke off andstruck him on the head, killing him in- -

stantly. The left side of his head was

crushed, although the skin was not bro"

ken.W. E. Palmer was a voung man of

more than ordinary intellect and supe- -r or qualifications; very industrious and

enterprising. During his two year.-- ,

btay with us he proved himself honestand frenerous. His death is a loss to

O

the country as well as to his family andfriends. The landmarks of uis energy,industry and enterprise still remain.

Recent inesthration has brought to

light some of the dark methods bywhich the people's lands have beenvoted away to railroad corporations.It is shown by the memoranda of J. J.Newell that Senators Kellogg of Lou

isiana, and McDonald of Arkansas, re

ceived over 100,000 for putting thejob through Congress for the Texas F.cific land grant, in 1872. It was theisinfluence and not their votes whichthese senators sold to the corporation.What the other gentlemen who werealso members of the senate at that timeand who voted for the bill, got for theirvotes, will remain a mystery. Had

they had influence they might havesold it openly and with as much ef

frontery as the gentlevuen from Louisi

ana and Arkansas.
