The "Man About Town" has several
times been requested to "show up" fsl"
low who was 50 cranky that ho would not
even buy tickets TO the dramas given
Wednesday and Thursday nights Of lass
week, because the actors were amateurs.
Listening to amateurs was not good enough
for his exalted psrsonags. OF course this
was his own right; but when he made
hirnaeIf conspicuous by running the ems
tertainmeHts down and trying TO discour-
age people from going, then it became
sort Of q public matter In which public
spirited citizens take an interest, 80 II IL Of
importance to everybody to see the Opsrs
House placed in good position, out Of
debt, for entertainments Of all kinds. The
fellow Is getting bad nsme for being
narrow minded and pig headed In refer
ence to matters here generally, and had
better go easy or he will run against snsgs
some stormy day.
The Man About Town has observed the
fellow who tried TO cut bis threat several
months ago In this city again on "bend-
err" Hundi eds or other people have ob-
served this also, sn6 some Of them have
said that it Is pity that the attempt -
suicide failed. Monday he drew knife
on saloon keeper, and has been riding .
mulish horse generally. A generous,
good natured sort OF fellew sober, he Is .
''holy terror" whom drunk, a0d that is the
way whIskey generally treats people.
The Man About Town has found people
wondering at the following things:
why the town clock fell through.
Why nails continue to stub pedestrians
toes.
Why the salmon do not swim south
ward faster.
Why people do not begin to get more
social.
Who will be the Portland P. NJ. after
the 2sih.
When the public schools will open.
Whether one out Of ten Chinese realizes
that be Is being agitated.
Whether we will have another winter
like tho last one. Ugh.
If wheat will ever get as high as IS cents.

years together is the hearty wish Of their

Tho case Of The L. ba ION l. Cascade Wagon
Road Co, against s. Il Teinpleton was tried
Last Tuesday, before George Humphrey, Esq,
and jury at the Court House in this city.
The action was for toll evaded by tho de-
fendant's bringing large number Of Indians
around the toll gate, not paying the regular,
nor any, fees. Seven witnesses were pres
ent from Sweet Home. The case was decid-
ed in favor Of the defendant practically on
the ground that the Wagon Road Co.. is not
complete, and hence, in other words, can
not force the payment of toll. The case will
Of course be appealed, as it affects the vital
| ity of the Road. Considerable interest has
been manifested in the result Of this impor-

County sucd,

Constable @. G.. Burkhart has brought
a suit against Linn county for $l3S,
fees for arresting Find.ey in the Sweet
Home case, the papers being served the
first of the week. AS Mr. Burkhart sued
the county few months ago in like
case and recovered judgment, the same
result will probably follow from this
suit. Under such circumstances why
the bill was not allowed we are unable
to say.

reference to the famous poem, "The
Prophecy" says: ''In looking over the
copy of your paper, dated Sept. 1Ith, / was
