The Fairburn postmastership has long
been bone of contention, but it is only
recently that a very lively sensation
has developed in that usually quiet
neigborhood. A day or two after the
burning of the postoffice and other
buildings, at Fairburn, B. w. Soper, who
was recently appointed postmaster to
succeed Geo w. Sanderson. was arrested
by U. =. Marshal Bray, and taken to the
Springs to answer to the charge Of set
ting the fire. He was arraigned before
o. 8. Commissioner Anderson, and to
give him an opportunity to secure co,in-
sci and witnesses his examination was
postponed until January 4th. His bond
was fixed at $5O0O0, and it was imms
diately signed by JIM. Daniels. Mr.
Soper protests his innocence, and 1t 10
reported. how truly We do not know,
that he charges Postmaster Sanderson
with having burned the buildirg for the
purpose Of destroying evidences Of
crooked dealings on bis part.

The night Of December 3lst 1898, was
cod and disagreeable one, but the
elements were braved by several dozen
miner: and prospectors who had their
eyes on numerous choice mining claims
which required location about the time
the new year was born. If there were
any mining properties in this vicinity
which reverted to The U. S. government
when Sunday night last gave place to
Monday morning, they were soon dis
covered, and Uncle Sans claim was
short lived.

Mrs. Tobey mother Of Howard Tobey

Mrs. Tobey, mother Of Howard Tobey
Of Condor, died last week at her home
In Athens, Maine. All Of her children,
except Howard, were present at the
time Of her death, and the old lady ex-
pressed great regret that Howard was
not there also, as she had not seen him
for seven years, since he came West.
She leaves husband and five children,
all the children being unmarried. How
ard is out In the mountains with sheep,
and has not yet learned the sad news.
The news will be terrible shock to
him, as he has been trying to make pre-
parations for several years to 60 home
TO zee his parents and old home. Last
summer he was just upon the verge Of
starting, but concluded TO put it off an
other year, bnt the delay has cost him
the sad realization OF never seeing bis
mother again.

The Wheat Outlook.

The wheat situation gets no better.
The crop In the United States is con
siderably below the average, due 10
many causes, the principle one Of which
Is the remarkably dry and hot weather
Of the western states. Yet the low crop
conditions are Of no benefit to prices. A
low yield is followed by the lowest price
ever known in this country. The crop
in Europe Is hardly up to the average,
yet the enormous increase Of the Argen-
tine has served TO make up for all de-
ficiencies, and still leave the world with
a surplus. This country will have
wheat to ship but az the world does not
need all that is grown, the question as
to who is to sell is determined by the
answer Of the other question, who will
sell for the smallest price. Our farmers
are in competition with the world, and
the price IL such that unless cheaper
means Of getting their products to the
worlds markets can be found, they will
have TO 60 out OF the business Of wheat
raising. At 80 cents bnshel there is
nothing in it, and the prospect Of its
bringing more are decidedly discourag-
ing. II is simply question Of who can
put the grain in the European market
cheapest. As far as the Pacific coast is
concerned, Argentine has much the bet
ter Of US in the matter Of transportation,
for her wheat can be laid down in Liver
pool for less than half the freight rates
that we must pay from Portland or San
Francisco Besides the Argentine is a
rich prairie country, through which
railroads can be built at minimum
price. labor is cheap and all the ele-
nents combine TO put her grain growers
in position to undersel us, and still
make handsome profits. Argentine will
have in the heighborhood Of 100, 200, 900
bushels TO export next spring, her crop
ripening in January, and she is now
shipping a crop Of 100000 bushels
From all Of which 1t will be seen tina,
the wheat outlook is decidedly bad.

RUB THE OTHER EYE.
Good Advice of an Engineer Regard
Ing the Removal of Cinders.

Nine persons out of every ten with a
cinder or any foreign substance in the
eye will instantly begin to rub the eve
with one hand while hunting for their
handkerchief with the other, says the
Medical Summary. They may, and
sometimes do, remove the offending
cinder, but more frequently they rub
until the eve becomes infiamed, bind a
handkerchief around the head, and 60
to bed. This is all wrong. The better
way is not to rub the eye with the Gin
der in it at all, but rub the other eye as
vigorously as you like.
A few years since was riding on the
engine Of fast express. The engineer
threw open the front window, and l
caught cinder that gave me the most
excruciating pain. | began to rub the
eve with both hands. "Let your eve
alone and rub the other eye" (this from
the engneer.)

Legality Jottings.

On Monday, Sept. 18th, Noble g. Sayre
met with horrible accident. While
at work threshing on the farm Of b. F.
Tennis Mr.. Sayre jumped off backwards
from the machine on which he was
standing and accidentally fell on pitch
fork that was stuck into the ground.
The handle penetrated his body coming
out at the side Of his abdomen. With
much difficulty he extracted the handle
himself, but he realized at once that he
had received his death wound. He was
carried TO Mr.. Tennis house and DR..
Geisendorfer hastily summoned. The
doctor could do but little TO relieve the
unfortunate man, and he suffered the
most excruciating pain until Wednesday
night when death was q welcome re-
lief 10 him. lie was conscious up to
within 20 minutes Of his death. His
young wife, whom he married less than
a year ago at the age Of 16 years, was
with him TO the last and was completely
prostrated with grief, as was also his
brother, Albert sayre.
Mr.. Sayre was an industrious young
man Of excellent character, devout
Christian and was held in the highest
esteem by all who knew him or had
dealings with him. He was passionate
ly fond Of his girl wife, ws.ich love was
fully reciprocated by her, and is indeed
a sad blow TO her young heart. The
sympathy Of the whole community is
with her and the other relatives in their
terrible afIiiction.
The body was embalmed and shipped
back to his old home in Missouri for in
terment, the heartbroken wife making
the sad journey with the corpse.
Our quiet little community has been
visited by two Of the sadest deaths it
has ever known. Mrs. Thomas, the be-
loved wife Of Dan Thomas, after suffer-
ing for weeks with that dreaded disease,
consumption, 'joined the silent major
ity" last week. Mrs. Thomas was low
ing wife, tender mother and devout
Christian. Wherever she went she
brought gladness and cheerfulness. To
know her was to love her. Our sympa-
thies are not with her bat with the be-
reayed friends who mourn her loss.
She was buried at the Olex cemetery,
Rev. Strong Of Arlington delivering a
touching and beautiful funeral sermon.
Another frightful accident happened
TO one OF our worthy citizens, Lee Paul.
While hauling water his team OF mules
became frightened and ran away, throw
ing Mr.. Paul to the ground. He clung
to the lines and was dragged some dis
tance, the heavy tank running over his
hand, breaking several bones and tear
ing nearly all the flesh from it. The
ligaments were torn so frightfully that
DR.. Geisendorfer at first thought the
hand would have to be amputated, but
has concluded that it will not have to
be done. 1t will be many day before
he will have the use of his hand, and it
was very unfortunate and painful ac-
cident. EUREKA.

San Francisco Chronicle: The fling
OF the protests of the manufacturers Of

tention to the beet sugar industry in
California. Another article appeared in
the dispatches in which Robert Oxnard,

in Nebraska, expressed his sentiments
ON the matter. Mr.. Oxnard said that if
the farmers did not share hall OF his

THAT ia just what we will have to do
here" said John L. Howard, president
of the Alameda Sugar company, yestsr-
day. People who have not acquainted
themselves with the progress of this in
dustry do not imagine how much harm
the loss of the bounty is going to do to
California. The farmer ia the one who
will suffer mostly, for it is to him we
look to raise our bests. We have been
paying SIS a ton for beets here, lust az
the Oxnards have been doing, and with
the bounty law still in force the con-
sumption OF beets promised to be greater
each year. for the output of the sugar
has increased each season during the
three years that we have been in opera
ton. | can see no other wav out OF the
difficulty, If our protests are OF no avail,
than to cloae mp next year, and this

The bounty paid on beet sugar last
year amounted to $685., l74.S4. or this

all the deer parks belong to the nobility,
this has occasioned an inquiry which
has resulted in showing the fact that the

are now sent there for sale. As the
British brewers daughters are now all
