Dowden got the Damsels Drunk.

On last Sunday evening man answering
to the rame of Mitchell Dowden secured a
good supply OF whiskey and took the near
est road to the Indian camps near Marys
river bridge Dowden and his demijohn
were soon on the spot and the children of
the forest" made him welcome visitor
when they discovered he had such good
supply of corn juice. The bottle was passed
until the entire party got beastly drunk
and Dowden reigned supreme. They built
bon fire and were having big time when
the hilarity of the occasion was interrupted
by a controversy that ended in big fight
in which Dowden was the principal pugIlist.
Deputy U. S. Marshal Pygall soon heard OF
the disturbance. and after learning the par
ticulars he escorted Dowden to a room in
the city calaboose and on Wednesday morn
ing bought his ticket to Portland where he
will answer the charge of giving whiskey to
Indians

East of the Mountains.

Nick Baesen and John Mensinger left this
place last Sunday to make an extended trip
E.st of the mountains and look at the coun-
try. 1t has already been suggested by
some of our citizens that they had other
motives for going away at this particular
time besides to simply look at the country.
In other words it has been limited that they
went away to remain until after the Novem-
Der term of Circuit Court, in 'rder to escape
testifying before the grand jury in relation
to the row which occurred in saloon in this
city few month ago, in which Sid Moore,
McTimmons, Baesen and Mensinger figured
prominently We believe the suggestion,
however, to be wrong one, because we
hardly think these men would take such
course in order to prevent justice from TAX
ing its course. If, however, they have
went away for any such purpose, the court
should continue the case until their testimo-
nv can be had.

campmeet,ng near Phllomatn.

Rumor has it that numerous instances
have occurred in the last week or two, IN
which, hoodlums and young outlaws, have
congregated, in and about the grounds near
Philomath, where campmeeting was being
held, wherein they attempted to and In
some instances did disturb the exercises in
different ways. If such is the case all such
intruders and petty outlaws should be
brought to justice as the law prescrlbes.
In this country people should be permitted
unmolested to hold gatherings of different
kinds and to worship in any way they please
and any young outlaws who can not behave
at such places should remain away or if
they 90 there and misbehave, they should
in every instance be punished. The laws
of our state prescribe severe penalties under
which persons should be punished who dis
turb or interfere with public gatherings and
any one who SO far becomes a law breaker
and an outlaw as to disobey these laws If let
90 unpunished is likely to become hardened
and thus 20 on until they commit graver
offences. Every law abiding citizen certain.
ly must use their influence 10 dlsapprove OF
such disturbances.

That Stir.

A party writing from Phiomath says
''there has been quite little stir there On
account of the remarks in the last issue of
the GAZETTE. in regard to the deputy mar
shal OF Phllomath. Some here understood
that the paper took sides with the ho"dlum
element" This paper has no apologies for
what has been said on that subject If peo-
pie stir because the paper advocates the
punishment of those who violate law and
order, they will have to do so, because this
paper under its present management, will
take no other grounds than that hoodlums
who break the law, and lawbreakers geper-
ally, or those who assault other people,
drawing pistols on them or throwing slune
shots and p,licemen's biiiies at peoples
heads shou!l be punished as the law pre-
scribes. This paper advocates the punish
men5 of hooIlums who break the law and
also the punishment of deputy marshals
who break the law. The president OF the
United States, because of his exlitel posi-
tiun or for any other reason has no right TO
draw his pistol on or throw other weapons
at people, and if he should do 50 he should
be punished. Neither does deputy mar
shall by reason of his exalted position have
any better rights to violate the persons of
other people by using deadly weapons upon
| them at all times than any body else.

Boys Shot At.

Last Sunday number of boys had been
swimming in Marys river south OF town and
upon returning one of them who was
eating an apple threw it towards the China
house eccupied'by Cinnamon who assist the
section boss in looking after the West Side
railroad. The apple struck tin can and
made considerable racket. One of the Chi
namen rushed out with pistol in hand,
when he observed the boys he fired at them
and then rushed upon th.m and stuck the
pistol in one boys face. Boys should be ar
rested and punished when they trouble
Cinnamon unlawfully just the same as if
they were molesting any other class of peo
pie, and Cinnamon have a perfect right to
inform on them anl to have them punished.
But Cinnamon who fourishes his revolver
around shooting into crowd of boys and
thrusting the funny end of his pistol into
peoples faces is a i tneerous kind of pill
grim to run at large, and should BE- arrested
and promptly dispatched tn Salem to view
the situation from behind the bars. S,me
of our officers who look after criminal prose-
cutions had best hav- tn 1t pig tail celestial
taken care of where he will not shoot and
cripple any boys.

The Lane County Fair.

The Lane County Agricultural Society
last Saturday closed its second annual exhi
bition, and to say that it was grand sue
cess is putting it in the mildest of terms
The pavilion, in Rhinehart's spacious par
lors and theater rooms, situated i'll the heart
of the city OF Eugene, was filed to over
flowing with exhibits of all kinds and com
pete in all departments, from that OF the
farm and field to that of the finest work OF
art and fancy work. The grain exhibits by
Geo. Belshaw, as well as that of grasses by
Hon. NJ. Wilkins, is deserving of speciai
mention and would be credit to any state
ill the Union, and is particularly so to Lane
county. The display CT fruits and vegeta
bles was excellent. 1t is said by parties
who visited both this and the state fair that
the only exhibits which did not surpass
that of the state fair was that of the live
stock exhibition. The pavilion in the even
ing was particularly attractive, having i'll
attendance an orchestra furnishing excellent
music, where the youth and beauty, aged
and middle-aged congregate ell mass. A
cursory glance by GAZETTE reporter at the
assembled crowd in the pavilion one evening
was convincing proof that the Iowa edloors
were only just in their praise of the Eugene
bellies.
| 1t is estimated that at least 5000 people
| attended the fair. The gate receipts
amounted to something over $500, and it is
thought by the managers that they will
be able to pay OF at least 80 per cent. of
the cash premiums awarded. No entrance
fee is charged for exhibits. A wise provis-
ion in the constitution of the Society does
not allow the managers to pay out on
premiums more than the total gate receipts,
| thus preventing the society from becoming
involved in debt, and which seems to be
perfectly satisfactory to premium holders
The race course and bicycling were features
of attraction. All i'll all the Lane county
fair was a grand success and reflects much
l, credit on the managers as we'll as the citi-
zens of the entire county. To the managers
we are indebted for courtesies extended.
With the same enterprise on the part of our
own citizens. Benton county could hold as
successful "a fair as this has been.
NOTES.
The Register publishers at Eugene City
exhibited enterprise in the publication of a
creditable daily during the fair.
Our fellow citizen, H. P Beach, had en-
exhibition some fine Jersey cattle, hut being
from another county could not compete for
