White Bronze Mo1uments.

Mr. j. a. Cardwell the general agent for
the State of Oregon for the White Bronze
Monuments writes us saying that she heard
some reports while at Independence that
the White Bronze Monuments at our cem-
etery had become both rusty and blatk. +"
In reply to this Infamous falsehood no doubt
gotten up by some person who sells the
worthless marble, granite and stone monu
ments of the present day, which cracks,
crumbles, and decomposes within twenty or
thirty years, so that it is almost worthless,
we desire to say; that the ''White Bronze
Monuments" in our cemetery here, have
not changed their color or appearance par
ticle since the day they were put up, over
one year ago, also another of like material
which we put up in Lee Mission Cemetery
one mile east of Salem is in like beautiful
condition. These Monuments being made
of pure zine they will last as long as time
and as long as the native zinc will in the
mines from where it is dug. 1t is not a
composition, but is made of pure zinc. hence
those common liars who go around the
country saying it will rust or change its
color should post themselves in order that
they may not appear as ignorant asses max
ing assertions contrary to the laws of nature.

Copp's Settlers Guide.

Henry n. Copp. publisher of Copps Set
tiers Guide is very valuable work for par
ties who contemplate or are perfecting their
title to government lands. Itcosts only 25
cents and contains all valuable suggestions
necessary On the subject. It shows to be
erroneous many of the common ideas talked
about as to the rights of settlers acquiring
titles in this way. This valuable book. on
the subject of residence and cultivation. con-
tains the following words to-wit: "a party
who enters a homestead and attempts to ac-
quire title thereto by going upon the land
and remaining over night once or twice in
six months, fails to establish legal resi-
dence; and where it is shown that such fail
ure to comply with the provisions Of the law
was not the result of ignorance or of uncon-
trolable circumstances, the entry should
be cancelled parties living and doing
business in cities and towns can not secu,e e
titles to public lands by occasional visits to
their CLAIMS"

Oregon Cadetship,

Milton F. Davis, of Mccoy, Polk county,
has received the appointment to West Point
through Congressman Binger Hermann, of
this state, says Portland exchange. There
has neen quite contest over the cadetship,
humber of applicants having applied for
the appointment Mr.. Davis, who received
the appointment, is about 20 years of age,
and was appointed on his true merits-hav-
ing undergone Thorough examination, and
found thoroughly competent and tt-for the
position. Regarding the appointment Con-
gresham Hermann has written the follow
ing letter to a member of the board here:
sAfter much reflection l have settled the
matter of the cadetship by appointing Mil
ton F. Davis. 1 have found my principal
reliance on the result of your examination.
Physically he was as good as any. Had the
variance not been so great 1 might have lis
tened to the great influence brought to bear
for others, but / think in this republic boy
should stand on his own merits, and having
great confidence in the finding of the board,
could not do otherwise than nominate the
one shown by it to be far ahead Of all other
competitors. l again thank you most kind
ly for your aid. Yours truly.
BINGER Hermann.
This settles the case for the present Mr..
Davis will have to undergo very critical
physical and mental examination before his
admittance to the school at West Point.
Readers will remember the board examined
all the candidates i'll this city and of these
reported favorably on three. Of these three
Congressman Herman has selected Mr. Davis
principally because of his superior standing
mentally, as evinced in his examination.

A Linn County Postmaster In Trouble.

Deputy United States Marshal Burkhardt
went to Portland last week havingin charge
MIR. c. M. Talbot, of Sodaville, Linn
county, Oegon, who was accused OF inter-
cepting a letter. Mr. Talbot was exam
ined and held to answer before the United
States grand jury in bonds of $3.50, whichhe
will have no difficulty in securing. The
history of the case was in short as follows:
Mr.. A. 7. Workman, now of Portland,
formerly resided in Sodaville, where he had
business interests. He has lady cores
pondent in Ohio, who sent him a letter adj
dressed to Sodaville, which he received in
Portland July Sth, and was dated in Ohio,
June 22d. The letter when received there
was in an envelope addressed by the accused
Mr.. Talbot explains the case by saying
that some weeks ago he was requested by
Mr.. Workman's father to address a letter
to his son in East Portland, and is positive
he has not opened any letter belonging to
Mr.. Workman. In justice to MIR. Talbot
it NAV be said he has never before been in
trouble, has, an untarnished reputation and
the record of a good, square man in the
section where he lives. The case was re-
ported to the postofiice inspector sometime
ago and has been made puplic for the first
time to-day.
