a Now Paper at Dufur.

Dufur is going to have new paper.
The plant is on the way and the time of
its first issue will be announced in due
time. 1t is the Monmouth Democrat
rediricuss but what name it may assume
up here we have not yet learned. 1t is
to be democratic, SO our informant says,
as its proprietor was advised that as the
county was now without democratic
paper there might be good field for a
new journal of that political faith. We
tell the story as we heard it, but the
CHRONICLE thinks this last statement is
a hard hit at the Sun. The CHRONICLE
believes in two parties. The one is
needed to watch the other. As it is the
Times-Mountaipeer is republican when it
is not mugwump. Now let US have a
rattling good democratic paper out at
Dufur and the CHRONICLE will preserve
the happy balance of truth between the

Circuit Court Proceedings.

In the circuit court the case of Allen
VS.. Sergeant ct al. occupied the court all
day Saturday up till nearly IL O'Clock p
m. whensit was argued ably by Messrs.
Huntington and Wilson for the defen-
dants and Judge A. S: Bennett for the
plaintiff. The jury agreed upon ver
diet at about 4 o'clock Sunday morning
awarding $500 to the plaintiff.
The man Lawsen who pleaded guilty
to having committed a rape upon the
person of Mrs. Poorman, an old lady
of over 20 years of age was brought be-
fore the court this morning to receive
sentence. Judge Bradshaw in order to
become informed as to the depth of the
mans guilt had Mrs. Poorman put on
the brute had broken into her room dur
ing the night and committed the crime.
DIR. o. D. Doan testified az to the con-
dition in which he found the person of
| the old lady the morning after. In pas
sing sentence Judge Bradshaw said, ''I
ious than the one with which you stand
charged. The law has given me wide
range in the matter of punishment but
our offense has gone to the ut mos
limits of imfamy. A big stout man
like you,' breaking into the room of a
frail lonely old woman, and perpetrating
the crime you have committed deserves
no leniency. The limits of the courts
leniency in your case have been fixed by
the legislature The judge then sem
fenced Lawsen to twenty years in the
state pententiary. The sentence is per-
fectly satisfactory far as the court is con.
cerned, the only regret being that, the
law did not permit the judge to send the
brute mp for life.

A Sort of Joint Proposal.

A short time since, at a wedding in
South Carolina, a lawyer moved that
one man should be elected as president;
that this president should be sworn to
keep secret all the communications that
should be forwarded to him in his official
capacity that night; that each unmarried
gentleman or lady should write his or
her name on a piece of paper, and under
it place the name of the person they
wished to marry, then hand it to the
president for inspection, and if any lady
and gentleman had reciprocally chosen
each other the president was to inform
each of the result, and the names of those
who had not been reciprocal in their
choice were to be kept entirely secret.
After the appointment of the president
communications were accordingly
handed up to the chair. 1t was found
that twelve young ladies and gentlemen
had made reciprocal choices, and eleven
of the twelve matches were solemnized.
