From what our reporter could gather
it seems that large stable in the
rear of Mrs. Susan Sloan's residence
was set on fire by some one and before
the flames could be stayed it was burn
ed to the ground. Situated as it was
in the midst of some fine private
residences-it is wonder it was
not more serious.

SINGULAR AocIDENT--A Nan
Choked to Death.-About three clock
Tuesday afternoon Frederick Lutz, Of
this place. seventy-two years of age,
lost his life at Engle's meat store in
an unusal manner. He was standing
by while Mr.. William Engle was slic-
ing ham. He took small piece and
while chewing it some discussion
arose as to its purity. 1t is supposed
this nauseated him, as he indicated a
desire to vomit. Mr.. Engle directed
him to the rear of the house, but in a
moment he came back with arms up
lifted and face discolored, and fell
upon Mr.. Engle's shoulders, thence
to the foor-dead. Mr.. Frederick
Bepler was present and seeing the
situation struck Mr.. Lutz several
blows between the shoulders with the
hope of relieving him. He aleo
called in DIR. Ravenscraft, but the
patient was beyond surgical aid.
The entire transaction took place
within five minutes. Justice Atkin-
sons attention being called to the
matter, he heard the statements Of
Messrs. Engle, Coyner and Bepler,
and decided an inquest unnecessary
1t is supposed that the piece fell in
the trachea and could not be dis
lodged. The deceased left widow
and seven children, five of whom are
grown. The funeral took place We'd
nesday at the German Lutheran
Church.

The Freight Problem Of the Future.

After reading the reported inter
view with President Leland Stan
ford, of the Central Pacific and
SoutherR Pacific railroad COM
panies, realizing the importance of
the matter to the people of Ore
gon, the editor of the Willamette
Farmer addressed letter to Gov.
Stanford, referring to the same,
and asking special endorsement
of 1t, and received the following
reply:
s. A. CLARKE, ESD. Portland. Oregon.
DEAR SIR Yours of the 10th INST
received. We expect to have the
Southern Pacific railroad completed
thrsugh to the gulf cf Mexico during
the coming year and when 1t rs opened
as connected line it will compete
successfully, l think, for the carriage
OF the wheat of California and of TIRE
gon. 1t is largely with this eXpecta-
ton that the road IS being construct
ed. Yours truly,
LELAND STAMFORD
The Willamette Farmer says;
How the construction of this rail
way can serve the purpose of Ore
gon wheat-growers can be more
readily understood when we add
that we have an intimation from q
reliable source that the intention
of the Southern Pacific manager:
is to put a line of heavy freight
steamers on the ocean, to connect
Astoria, at the mouth of the Co
lumbia, with the port Of WHINING
ton, lower California, which vii
be one ocean terminus Of th,
Southern Pacific railroad, and ST
make it easily possible to transfe
the wheat crop of the Columbi;
river region to market via the gul
of Mexico. In the future, the in
tention is to connect with the Ore
gonian Railway company limited
as has been stated, but the trans
fer by steamers, as proposed, is a
feasible, as to transport our whea
all the way by rail in the future
The subject possesses interest, am
the tone of Mr.. Stanford's lette
shows an earnest purpose.

The Bold Peasantry.
san Francisco Chronicle.

Our recent census report ap-
pears to have suggested some un
pleasant reflections TO the English
press, which is indulging in specu-
lauons showing a tinge of jealous
ly, not to say alarm, at the
marvellous growth and develop
ment of ''the great Republic" The
London Standard exclaims that
Europe IS rapidly being depleted
Of its manhood of wealth to aggran-
die the power of the United
States, and estimates that during
the last year she has made US a
present of at least S30O,00O,000.
The same journal laments bitterly
that the vast stream of emigration
cannot be diverted TO the British
colonies. ave may need our bone
and sinew vet" So concludes the
piteous lamen;ation, "but the bold
peasantry, when once destroyed,
can never be supplied again.
This is a tardy recognition Of the
value of the peasant class. Surely
the policy of the British govern
ment, especially its Irish policy
would seem to imply desire tc
stimulate, rather than check, tn,
emigration Of those who live by
tilling the soil. An earlier appre'
ciation of the value, and also o
the just rights, of the ''bold peas
antry" would have done much tc
prevent the evils to which Englisl
journalism appears to have jus
opened its eyes.

The Agricultural society OF
Paris thinks that the tariff on
French wines iS simply a measure
of reprisal for the French inter
diction of American bacon, and
invokes the aid OF the government
70 procure a removal of the duties.
The Agricultural society Is in
error. The duties ON French wines
is partly a revenue measure, in ac-
cSrdance with the sound principal
of taxing luxuries rather than ar
ticles of necessity, and partly a
protective measure to foster Amer
lean vinicultural enterprise. As a
matter of fact it antedated the
French interdiction of the impor-
tation of American pork and bacon.

The winter of 1SSo-8l will be
known as a memorable one in MANY
respects, and not the least among
its extraordinary characteristics
will be its simultaneous effort at a
breakup throughout the whole
country. 1t was either raining OF
showing throughout the whole
United States, with the possible
exception Of a district west of the
Rocky mountains; and except in
the Dakota region there was vic
cent movement Of the water-cours-
es toward unloading their winters
accumulatioRs. Up in the prairies
of the northwest where the normal
wind appears to be an Arctic biz
zard, the meteorological phenom-
ena were of an intensely wintry
type, but elsewhere the whole
country was literally under water.
From the lower Missouri valley to
the Gulf, the streams were pass
ing down their winters store oi
ice, while along the lakes and the
Atlantic slope they burst their icy
fetters with a violence seldom be-
fore witnessed. From all the
rivers in the country except the
upper affiuents of the Missouri and
Mississippi, comes the same story
Of strong foods.
