A Costly s,nash.ap.

Last Tuesday "unele Johnny" Gilmour
started for this city with three teams loaded
down with fisx-seed, carrying about 20 bush.
els on each wagon. Himself and son had
each driven across the tho bridge over the
Canal near Mr., Cooper's place, and just as
the third team. driven by Mr.. Cassidy, was
coming oil the main stringor on tho lower
side of the bridge broke. The horses had
just gone off the bridge onto tho apron, but
when the stringor broke tho decking slipped
OF the lower side into the water, taking the
wagon with it This drew the horses back
and threw them above the upper stringer.
with the wagon on the other side. Tho har-
ness being strong held the horses in that po-
siiion with their heels in tho air and their
heads most Of the time under water. Uufor-
tnnatcly no one had knife, and the horses
had to remain in that position until Rob't
Gilmour ran to a house near by and secured
one. The harness was then cut and the
horses set free. They were foand to DO con-
siderably bruised and one nearly drowned,
aud, besides, the wagon was badly demofal-
lied, about hall the load of lax lost, also a
good overeoat, some bed quilts which covered
the load, aud several other articles. The
driver. Mr. cassady, was bruised severely,
aud it is a great wonder he so; or wi;h his
life. lie says land We believe him1 that he
did some lively scratching around when the
wagon, in sliding into the Canal. made the
horses describe a hall circle through the air
and then dropped them headforemost into
water with their heels dourishing around his
head. The damage resulting from this aeci-
dent will probably amount to over 500, and
the next question Is: who foots the bill! Mr..
Gilmour IS certainly entitlsd to redress, and
and il the county keeps up tie bridges over
the Canal the sum viii have to come ont OF

after their farms, which have been rented
out Mr. Canon owns large farm at

past year or two been located near Hollister.

Si,500 and Mr.. w. about 5000. Mr..
westlaie has already written for his family

County School Superintendent Liggett IS
now drahghtiug map Of the School Dis.
tsioss in Linn county for his private use aud
in doing so has found several tracts Of land
which are left entirely outside Of any organ.
ize1 district Ono tract lies just across the
calspooia from this city. aud extends west
about one mile from the junction of that
stre,m with the Willamette. Another tract
lies On the south side Of the Calapooia just
bslow the railroad bridge and comprises
nearly whole section. Also over five sec
tions five miles due east Of Harrisburg. An.
other. comprising about a half section, is sit
uatea in the bend on the west side of Mud
dy, about two miles southwest of Shedd.
Stil another hes about two miles south of
Lebanon, and as the map IS not yet near
completed the probability Is that several
more viii be discovered. The effect Of these
boliss Of laal lying outside OF any district
is that when any special tax is levied for i'm
provemsnts or anything else they are not ro-
quired 70 pay cent. and If any one residing
on them sends children to school he draws a
proportion from the school fund % " hieh he
Is not entitled. To remedy this the County

Inst wcols Mr. CundiH tore down Tho old
building that stood on his property on Broad
albin street, between Second and Third. and
will put up new one at the same place.
Our old citizens have probably forgotten ii,
and those who came here lately may never
have heard it, but nevertheless Il is fact
that the STATE RIours DEMOCRAT got It's
start in that old building. II was opened
out there in August, 1865. by jas. o'Aieara.
now one Of the editors Of the s. r Daily
Eeamlaer, and when Abbott. Brown & Trav.
erso took hold of it in 1866 it was still in
that building. In that little tumble.down
shanty o'Neara wrote some of his strongest
articles on State rights, and il was from the
Same that he went forth daily in quest Of
some Democrat with weak head and a
plethoric purse from whom he could borrow
a piece. The DgMocRAT was small at that
time and its subscribers were few, and we
cannot help bat feel proud now when we see
how it hao progressed in both particulars.
