A Bloody Bull.

Sunday evening young man known as
John Calvin Sons, well known in this city,
was severely gored by bull, on the farm
of Thos. Davidson, about one mile south of
the depot. Sons has only been employ
ed on the farm for the past two weeks.
He was formerly employed at the Chemeketa
hotel, and was young man who was well
liked. 1t seems that on yesterday evening
Mr.. Davidson was .unwell and for the first
time sent young Sons out to care for this
furious beast, that has come near causing
the death of three persons. MIR. Davidson
warned him to use precaution and to not
get in the same lot with the ''critter." but
Sons had not been gone but short time until
Mr.. Davidson's little boy came running in
and told his father that the beast was after
the hired man. Mr.. Davidson went at once
to the poor victims rescue and soon beat the
man. killing beast eff. 1t was then dis
covered that Sons had received several very
bad wounds, one in the lower part of the
bowels, one over the shoulder and also two
severe wounds near the base of the spinal
column. Dr.. J. N. Smith was Immediately
summonsed and dressed the wounds and
this evening the young man is resting easy,
yet is In bad condition, although the doc
tor does not consider them dangerous.
This same animal has came near killing
three different persons, and this morning an
end was put to his career by taking him out
and killing him. Only about three weeks
ago an accident similar to the above occurred
at the same place.

A Boat Railway at The Dalles.


Mr.. Hollon Parker, of Walla Walla,
who is in the city, is just in receipt of a
delayed letter from Senator Dolph, which
was to have been read at the recent water
way convention. Speaking of govern
ment improvement the senator says:
l called yesterday at the office of the
chief of engineers to learn. if possible, if
the report of the commission, appointed
under the provisions of the last river and
harbor bill to examine The Dalies rapids
and report a plan of improvement, had
been made. l learned that the commits
sion had returned from Europe after ex-
aiming what is known as the hydraulic
lifts for vessel in France and England,
and that their report would be received in
time for action by congress.
From several conversations / have had
with members of the commission, the
chief of engineers and others, | am con-
fident that there will he strong favorable
report for the improvement, and that the
project recommended will be boat rail
way. l have strong hopes that with such
a report our delegation, acting in unison,
as we will, will be able to secure large
appropriation for the commencement of
this improvement.
In regard to other Improvements, the
large estimates made in previous years
for the work at the mouth of the Coium-
bia and at the Cascades have aided greatly
in securing large appropriations. This
year the estimate for the amount which
can be economically used at the mouth of
the river is not so large as heretofore. and
1 fear as consequence that there will be
more difficulty in securing as large ap-
preparations. As have said 10 you be-
fore. the appropriations are based, to a
large extent, upon the recommendations
of the engineers in charge, the first thing
done being 10 determine about how large
the bill Will be and then TO divide the
amount to be appropriated among the sew
eral orks.

Always be a Mystery.
w W IInian

J. NJ. Hill and w. w. Baker, who re-
turned late Wednesday night from visit
to the scene of the boiler explosion on Mon
day, state that after an examination of the
circumstances surrounding the accident,
they believe that the cause is destined to
always remain mystery. After careful
examination of the torn boiler they could
find no evidence of the metal having been
burned. The crown sheet, which was fitted
with \ soft metal plug, to prevent accident
should the water run low, was examined
and the plug was found intact. The boiler
and engine are reported to have been to.
tai wreck. Mr.. Hill has written to the
brother and sister of Isaac Harding, the
victim of the accident, at Darwin, Minn.,
detailing the manner of his death. The
body has been brought to the city and
buried, and the coroner is expected here in
day or two to hold an inquest. A portion
of HardIngs head only could be found,
that member having been badly shattered
regard the accident as almost stroke of
providence, and relate the following story:
On Sunday, Harding, in conversation,
stated that on several occasions he had con-
templated suicide, stating that within the
past five years he had run through $4,000
by drinking and fast living, and closing
with the remark: 81 would be glad if Billy
God were to take me out OF the world
where am of no use to myself or anyone
else"
At the time of the accident the engineer
was standing by the pony pump, which fed
the boiler, while another man was OH lad
der directly back and above the boiler,
both escaping with bad scare and minor
scratches.

A Reduced Levy.

LIE DALLES, Oct. 10, 1908.
EDITOR TINES -MoUNTAINEER:
A good deal of discussion Is being carried
on about the results that would flow from
the making Of ten mill levy by the next
county court, instead of one sufficient to
meet all the expenses of the county for the
current tax year; and some have an idea
that instead of the proposed measure work.
ing benefit to those it is intended to re-
lieve, it would work the other way, be
benefit to the rich and those who are in no
need, aud that finally and in the long run
the full proportion with interest of the in
Cured comfy Indebtedness would fall upon
those who have suffered most from the
drouth of the past season. A very simple
illustration ought, think, to place this
matter in its true light. Suppose the case
of taxpayer, in the burnt out district,
who, at the time the assessor called ON him
last summer, returned an indebtedness of
say $500. With nothing whatever to sell
from the proceeds of this years crop it is
safe to say, that the same persons indebted.
ness will he doubled the next time the as
SCISSOR calls on him. And this means less
taxable property and, as a consequence,
smaller taxes. And it is safe to say that
the increased Indebtedness consequent on
this years failure of crops, will wipe from
the assessment roll many small taxpayers
while it reduces the taxable property of
every man vino has suffered. Thus, in the
end, small levy for this year will benefit
the farmers while they have little or moth
ing with which to pay taxes, and it will
benefit them next year, when they can take
advantage of the law that allows deduction
of Indebtedness. As a corollary, 1t is not
denied that, the measure contemplated
would throw little of the burden on those
who are best able to bear it; but If the rich
and well-to-do are seeking channels for FRA :
tical benevolence, it seems to me there is an
excellent opportunity afforded them of en-
couraging measure that would cause the
whole generation of farmers in blighted
parts of this county to rise up and call them
blessed. HUGH GoURLAY.

A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.

During the past few days the following
accidents have happened. and the results
have been kindly furnished us by one con-
versant with the facts:
Mr.. Geo. Reed, on Oct 10th, an employe
of the o. r. & N. Co., had his finger caught
in the oil box. The member was badly
bruised, but DR.. Logan, the company's sur.
geon, feels assured that the wound can be
healed without amputation.
Mr., j. Schoren was struck by locomo-
tive near the coal bunkers, last week, and
was slightly bruised; but was not seriously
injured.
On the 1lth, Switchman F. Ryan, at the
depot, in trying to board caboose while in
motion, made a misstep and fell, his right
foot being caught under the wheel, result
ing IN the loss of three toes, which DR..
Logan, the company's surgeon, amputated.
He was sent to st. Vincent's hospital, hav-
ing no home in the city.
Yesterday, in the forenoon, E. Drews, as.
sistant upholsterer in the company's shops,
while picking hair in a foot-power machine
the cogs becoming choked his thumb was
caught in removing the Instructions, and
the injury will lay him up for several days.

The usual run of affairs are about the

The last letter of Veritas created quite

they are doing the same thing again, while

Your correspondent saw a new Norwegian |

A Sad Accident.


Last evening about 6:30 the eight year old
ckild of G. W. Johnson's met with dan.
gerous and painful accident. The little son
was playing on the floor ami a sewing
needle with small piece of thread attached
was lying on the floor and in moving around
the ne edle was thrust into the childs' knee.
Drs. Richardson and Cusick were at once
called and at first no trace of the needle
could be found. The physicians were COM
PEELED to administer chloroform to the little
fellow and make deep incission to the
bone. The needle was found. 1t had en-
tered with the head inward and had pene-
trated almost to the bone. The little fellow
bore the operation with great fortitude and
is resting quite easy to-day. The operation
was deecate one as the needle had entered
the knee close to the kneecap and if an in
cission had penetrated in the wrong direc-
tion the little boy would have been crippled
for life. The doctors hope that no serious
consequences will terminate from the acci-
dent.
