1t is generally supposed that newspaper
men. by reason of their goodness and vir-
tues, are not amenable to the accidents and
ills which usually at1iict the rest of the in
habitants of this sinful world, ipt this
theory received checkmate last Sunday by
reason of this sad experience of the writer,
while out riding behind a team of uncivilized
cayuses To make long story short they
run away and spilled the editor of the
Times unceremoniously on the ground, pro-
ducing sensations something akin to what
the lamented Jim Fisk complained of when
he sayed, after a long military review on
on horseback, that he would be compelled
to take his meals for the next two weeks

Workmen and supplies for the railroad are
arriving in this city faster than they can be
transported to the front. This is owing to
the fact that teams are scarce and the roads
have become SO bad that the present force
of teamsters cannot remove the supplies as
fast as they arrive, although a large quanti-
tY has been shipped to the bay by water.

Bro. MAYS ON FUTURE PUNISHMENT
Many of our readers will remember the
Rev. F. w. D. Mays who was a member of
the recent conference of the NJ. e. Church
South, that met in this city this summer,
and who was stationed at Pomeroy w. I.
where he is the editor of the Washington
Independent. THIS is the way the Indepen-
dent speaks of the future of Guiteau:
Bro. McAlisteI defends Guiteau spiritually,
and tries to get him to Heaven finally.
We will go some other place if such men as
this assassin is to be our companion IN the
Universalist Paradise We believe in
mercy, but God has to be just also. If He
is just. Guiteau is in He'll everlasting. We
have no confidence in the repentance of any
man who commits the crime of premeditated
murder. We believe such are roasted on
the grid-ron of He'll, while his soul drinks
molten lead to quench its thirst as the fires
of Damnation are bursting upon it, and all
the little Devils burst tire-crackers of Eter-.
nal misery on Guiteau & Co. head forever.

ARTICLES FILED.-The Alsea and Tide
Water wagon road company have recently
filed articles of incorporation in the office of
the Secretary Of State for the purose of con-
structing wagon road from the lower end
of the upper Alsea valley to Thiewater.
The capital stock is fixed at 5000. The in
corporators are Thomas Russell, and VIM.
K. Hammersly, and w. P. Ready. the
principal Office being At Tide Water. This
road, when completed, will connect the two
Alsea's, and furnish for the people of the
Upper Alsea an outlet to the ocean, with a
harbor at Alsea Bay. where sex going vessels
can at any time come in and carry away all
the produce Of the two Valiies; beside this
it will be great advantage to tho citizens
of the Lower Alsea. We hope to see this
much needed enterprise . perfect success
and have NO doubt but it will be soon.
This is one of the. most fertile portions of
Benton county and has large population
who are. now considerably hampered for
want of this very road.

VIM. Lloyd Garrison in an address before
the Wonan's Suffrage Convention at Port
land ast week said that the social condition
hero was constant surprise to him, having
formed the same idea tnat many others had
beforehand who have not been to this coast,
that We were but semicivilized. He paid
Portland the compliment that it looked for
all the world to HIM like New England
city, and the only thing to make its ad-
vanced civilization the more apparent was a
Woman's Suffrage Convention such as was
then attending.

that he lost about six thousand dollars
worth of stock last winter, but has some
left and proposes to stay with them until

We admire his pluck and sincerly hope that
he may not meet with another misfortune
similar to the last, but eventually become
rich and prosperous for he deserves success.

HAUNTED.-We are informed that the
proprietor of one Of our most public offices
in the southern part of town is in horrible
dilemma. Almost daily tall preposessing
human may be seen striding slowly and
cautiously towards the Office. He uncere-
moninusly steps in, finds chair, chats about
the weather, throws out leaders on various
subjects, and invariably waits until noon to
accompany the poor unsophisticated agent
to dinner. Our rgent is fast failing; his
once vigorous vitality is alan,ingly wasted.
His former full face, with such rosy cheeks,
presents picture of untoli suffering The
agueish complexion, the wan countenance
too plainly tell the tale of distress. Even
the once vigorous moustache is fast fading,
it deigns not to grow upon flesh that re-
quires an everlasting cultivation. Reader,
beware of breathing ghosts. The blasted
Metaphysical and mental, of our beloved
friend is terrible warning.
We have not been furnished with the
name of the gentleman who is thus blasting
the life of the agent, or we would seek a
personal interview and urge him to desist,
for 'tis sad for one 30 young to die thus.
