The members from Benton county, Messrs.
Burnett, Palmer, Green, Hughes and Carter,
are diligent and active; and in point of abil-
ity, are second to no county delegation in
the State. Benton can well feel proud of
her representatives in the Legislature.
Judge Burnett has presented quite number
of bills to amend and dissect the present
code of laws and svero he mob a bed rock
Democrat, should accuse him of aiding the
business success of the State Printer.
Judge Haines, Of Baker, also appears to
have some animosity against the code. If
one-half of the bills now pending before the
two houses to amend the code should pass,
we will be without any laws, comparatively,
until the State will be again forced to ap-
point another Code Commission. at the ex-
pense of the State 1t is not advisable, ev-
cry two years, to amend and cut up our
laws in such manner as to make many acts
unintelligib]e and void, and increase the liti-
cation. l do not design any reflection or
disrespect to any member for the number of
bills he or they present; but think too much
legislation is disadyantageous to the inter
ests of the State
The Senate and House were both in ses-

ACCIDENTAL SHoT.-One day last week, a
young lady in this city was cleaning up her
pistol. A by-stander asked the question.
s'What are you doing with that pistol, you
can't shootg At this the young vould-be
sportswoman leveled her pistol in tie direc-
tion of window and pulled the trigger,
and to her astonishment ~ the pistol was
discharged, the ball passing thp,ugh the
window and into the door of China house in
close proximity, but luckily the Chinaman
that might have bsen accidentally standing
m range of the postol was somewhere else.
The fortunate Chinaman, on hearing the
report of the pistol, poket his head out of
the door and asked the young lady, "What
for you sh,.ot;' to which the younf lady re-
Piled, '.Me shoot em cats, you no telle Ray
burn" Such careless use of firearms in the
hands of inexperienced females, especially
when they have not sufficient knowledge to
tell whether the weapon is loaded or empty,
should be made reprehensible in tie extreme

noon was occupied in the reading of bills
first time, and receiving of reports of COM
mittees The afternoon was consumed in
discussing Watts bill on Insane Asylum,
over which there was lively and animated

In the House, the forenoon session was
occupied mainly in amending and discussing
the Pilot and Harbor bill The lobby at the
Capitol is increasing, and great pressure is
brought to bear upon important measures,
for and against. The business of the ses-

AN UNEXPECTED WEDDING.-Yesterday
morning, Oct. 10, 1878, at 9 o'clock, Mr.. E.
E. Cooper, of Tacoma, w. T., and Miss
Fannie B. Hamilton, of this city, were
united in marriage by Rev. H. P. Dunning
This was an unexpected event even to the
most intimate friends of the parties. Miss
Hamilton had long been one of the favorites
of Corvallis society, and we note the fact of
her marriage with some regret. from the
fact that she left the city the same morning
for her future home in Tacoma. However,
all our selfish feelings give way to the hope
that her life may be one of unclodded hap
piness.

DRowNED.-From the Salem Record We
learn that on Thursday afternoon of last
week, Mr. Shurtz, son in-law of James
Bruce of Benton county, who lives in East
ern Oregon, was on his road with his wife
and infant child to pay visit to his wife's
people in Benton county, and while foard-
ing the Santiam near Sweet Home, as they
reached the middle of the stream one of the
horses balked and refused to go further
a boat was brought TO take the ccenpant1
to the saere.. bat sshhea parties having tlA3
c5zS, }h si,er sssssr- ' ssiss
siae, and drifting against tho Wagon cslsed
it to upset, drowning Mrs: Sfrurtz and her
infant child. The body of Mrs Shurtz has
been recovered, but that of the child had
not at last accounts. OF course we sincerely
sympathize with the bereaved husband, and
suppose he knew where he was from and
where he was going. But upon diliesnt in
auiry, we fail to place Mr.. James Br,ce in
Benton county. We knew a James Bruce,
more familiarly known as Major Brucs, who
formerly resided in this county, and how a
resident of Washington county; bat was
not apprised of his having son-in-law A
prominent politician suggests that Mr. JAS
Bruce may have come to the county since
the election.
