A CITITE,
ANOTHER CORPORATION SENATOR

The Republican victory in Oregon,
says the San Francisco Examiner, has
turned out badly for the people, not
only of that State, but of the entire
country. The Republican majority of
the Legislature have sold out to Vii
lard, and the result is the election of a
railroad attorney to the United States
Senate. The nomination of Mitchell
by the Republican caucus was a shame
full act. The mans record hould de-
bar him from Office. Enough Republi-
cans he'd out against the caucus decis-
ION to prevent Mitchell's election, but
the entire body at last united, aban-
doned Mitchell and elected Joseph N.
Dolph. This is undoubtedly the work
of money. A large sum must have
been paid out by the corporations to
secure SO unfortunate result. There
are intelligent, respectable and honest
Republicans in Oregon, and one of
them should have been sent to the
Senate. Instead, goes Dolph, rail
road agent and attorney. He will rep
resent in the Senate the Northern Pa
cific railroad interest primarily, and
the Central and Union Pacific seconda-
rlly. His election gives the monopo-
lies another vote in the Senate. He
will be another obstacle to the restora-
ton of the forfeited land grants to the
public domain, and to any bill that is
intended to alleviate the condition of
the people. The Senate is fast becom-
ing unrepublican and undemocratic-a
body more and more similar to the
British House of Lords. 1t is being
filled with the agents of the great rail-
road corporations and other monopo-
lies, and will soon stond as an insuper-
able barrier to all popular aspirations
for reform. Fur Seal Miller, Wood
Pulp Miller, Railroad Attorney Dolph
and such men are gradually seizing the
seats that should be filed by friends of
the people. 1t is a most lamentable
turn of affairs.

MONTGOMERY STATION.

Believing that this portion of the 0.
& c. R. r. extension has never been
represented through the columns of
your valuable paper, I shall now take
the time, if you will gra Mt NE thespace,
to give brief description of this flour
ishing little town, and also of the stat
us of the railroad work near here.
Montgomery, the headquarters for
all mill men here, is also headquarters
for those employed by the railroad
company, consequently one can readily
conceive what life at the front con-
sists of. There are about thirty-fve
houses in the town, four Of which are
boarding houses, four saloons, one
blacksmith shop and one store, all of
which are doing thriving business.
Willis Il Abraham's large and commo-
diouf saw mill employs large force of
men, and is cutting about $4,000 feet
of lumber daily. Teamsters, with
teams of all descriptions, can be seen
at almost any hour of the day passing
to and from the mill yard with timbes
which will, in The near future, bear up
the iron horse as lie wends his way up
the long dreaded Cow creek hills. The
large Howe-truss bridge in course of
construction across Cow creek, will,
upon completion, make grand appear
ance, it being 100 feet span and ele-
waited to the height, of twenty FIVE feet.
On opposite sides of Cow creek piles
have been driven and everything, so
far as we are capable of Judging, is
ready for the track-layers.
The large tunnel at Cow creek hill,
one and half mile east of Monteom-
cry, is being rapidly pushed forward,
work on the same being pressed night
and day. Even at this late hour, II
o'clock P. NJ, blasts are being fred
On tie south side of this long tunnel
the entrance has been effected to the
length of 800 feet, while on The north
side to the distance of $50 feet, and
contractors complain of not having APP
preached solid formation as yet,
much tc their dissatisfaction.
Montgomery, though small at pres
ent and laboring under many disad-
vantages, bids fair to become large
and prosperous town, es we learn from
good authority that it will be the site
for the round house or machine shops
for the Oregon division of the Oregon
and California railroad.

B. Hermann, c. H. Merchant, and
Asher Marks were selected as directors

TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

As had been frequently announced.
the teachers of Douglas county, with
the mony friends of common school ed
ucation, met at the Court house in this
city, ON Wednesday evening, to attend
the opening exercises of their annual
convocation. The weather being very
inclement, and the city having several
other public attractions on the same
evening, yet there was a goodly num-
Der present, who felt fully repaid for
their attendance Prof. E. B. Noel
roy, State Superintendent of Instruc-
ton called the meeting to order, with a
brief speech which convinced his hear
ers that he IS alive to the Importance
of the work in which he is engaged,
and that he is an energetic worker
Pref Cathey followed in some earn
est and practical remarks which met
with cordial approval from the audi
ence. Hon. A. f. Campbell was then
introduced and delivered the address of
welcome. His address is indescibable,.
abounding in beautiful SMILES, and
practical suggestions. Among other
thugs, he remarked very aptly that the
work of the teacher is to instruct pu-
pills in thinking and obeyiug The re-
sponse to this address was delivered by
Hon. H. P. Webb, whose remarks,
like those of his predecessor, were OF
the choicest English and full of practi-
cal suggestions. 1t is to be regretted
that all the friends of education were
not present to hear them.
The exercises of the evening were
interspersed with music, under the di-
rection of Prof. Cathey. Especially
worthy of mention was solo by Mrs.
Film, with chorus by Messrs. Cathey
and Miss Catahy. The opening exer-
cises gave promise of an earnest and in
teros.ing meeting.

DESPERATE AFFRAY.-On last Fri.
day an affray occurred at Lewisburg
at the end of the track, which may re-
suit fatally. The circumstances as we
have heard them from various parties
are as follows: Itappears that Edward

fast he insulted Dawson's wife and sub
sequently came into the store, when
Dawson requested him to let his wife
alone. At this Kelly became very
abusive and struck him and in a short
time after he returned with another
man. Kelly struck Dawson with
club and while the other man clinched
him, struck him IN the eye with a glass
and IN the back of the head Dawson,
who is powerful man, succeeded in
putting the two men out of the tent.
From neon until the bell rung for sup
per Dawson remained inside the tent.
When he went to supper with his wife
and children, he took his pistol, as
Kelly he'd threatened to kill him before
night. Just as he was seating him.
self at the supper table Kelly entered
the dining room and putting his hand
In his back pocket, said he would shoot
him anyhow. Dawson then .drew his
pistol and shot Kelly in the head, near
the left temple. Kelly is not dead but
his recovery is doubtful. Dawson
came to Roseburg and gave himself up
to the Sheriff. No examination has yet
been held.

ROBBERY OF MAIL Coach Last
Saturday, Oct. %, the stage left Can.
yon City at the usual hour for The
Dalls, and when about Is miles below
town, near the place of r. Dam
on, the driver discovered that the iron
rcd, or guard that passes around the
body of the blackboard, was broken,
and that the through mail sack was
missing The driver immediately
mounted horse and returned to town
at full speed, expecting TO find the
sack on the road, if it had not been
picked up and brought back by team
coming his way. He was disappointed.
The sack was not found, nor could any
trace of it be discovered. A thorough
search was instituted, but without
avail, and on Monday, the contractor,
P. A. Helms, who was driving the stage
at the time the sack was lost, issued
posters, offering reward of $500 for
its discovery. No clue could be OBJ
tanned until Wednesday, when Post
master Hall and Sheriff Cresap found
the sack buried in the gravel near Can
yon creek, about one and one-half
miles below town. It had been open
ed and the contents distracted. The
cut was about seven inches long, and
was made with dull instrument, evi:
IDENTIFY an axe or hatchet. Some half
dozen blows had been struck before the
instrument penetrated the Tough leath-
er, of which the sack is made. It is
said there was at least $500 in gold
dust and greenbacks in the sack when
it left the pestoffice $500 in dust be-
longing to H. R. Sells, and $1,000 to

Their wives and children smiling run
And shout them welcome home:
Then who'd exchange home and ease
With loving friends to cheer,
And roam DER mountains, hills and wales
But the brave volunteer:
For, when his country calls for aid,
And hurls her flag in air,
He bids adieu to home, sweet home,
And starts volunteer.
The volunteers have now returned,
And glad they are to find
To laurels they so richly earned,
The people are not blind:
Buchanan now is in the field,'
And Captain Smiths his man;
But John surrounded him, you know,
And brought him to stand.
Full ten of his brave men were slain,
And twenty more did bleed;
While he beheld with inmost pain,
The Indians strip his dead:
Thirty long hours they were entrenched
Before the Colonel came,
And many spots of earth were drenehed
With life's red lurid flame.
But was it it so with Limp and George:
Did they stand to the fight!
When volunteers rushed to man
They took to instant flight.
Their squaws and children were all left
To shift as best they could,
Of blankets and of ''ictas" reft,
They ran to save their blood.
Thus they were all compelled to yield
For well our shots did tell;
And woe to them who hindmost were,
For they in battle fell
Next, John. to try our grit, came up,
His lead like hail it fell,
Then soon to save his hair, he left,
But where we cannot tell.
We've hunted him both up and down, -.
And many mountain through,
Fen to the ocean-all around,
And valleys through and through.
hree months we've spent in marching round
Three months of toll and pain;
We've whipped the Indians whenever found
And not man was slain.
Tis true some sickn we have had
And wounded, Only two
But now in health and spirits
We are to meet with you.
We love to see your smiling face,
We love your company,
We hope to stay at home from this,
From wars and turmoils free.
We all admire your courage bold;
Your love constancy-
You've guarded we'll affairs at home,
While we were in the spree
Our Major is as brave man
As e'er commission bore.
In fight he always led the van,
Nor left till all was DER.
Our Captain too's as true as steel,
Our officers all good;
And every man that's in the field
Up for his country stood.
Success 20 every honest man;
And success to the brave,
Who fought old George, Limp and Sam.
Their wives and babes to save.
Sweet peace is now restored to as,
Wen cultivete our lands;
WeIl plow and sow, we'llreap and NOW
And work with our own hands.
Now let us shout and swell the song,
Ard give three hearty cheers,
That VIC may all remember long
Our brave young volunteers.
