Mr.. A. J. Miller, well known alongl

than ordinary amiability, and her
death has cast q gloom over the
community in which she lived.
| In view Of the recent burglsries
committed in Seattle, and the house
breakingin this place last night, there
is abundance of reason to conclude
that the Sound country is not en-
tirely exempt from the hordss Of
roughs that are now infesting this
part Of our coast Filled to reple-
ton as Oregon is. at the present
time, with desperate characters. it is
mot strange that the dsmoralizsd
drippings of her redundant popula-
tion should fnd their way into our
Territory, and We caution our good
citizens to be we'll on their guard.
