| After all this world is pretty much q
game Of draw. 1t takes rich man to
draw check, pretty girl to draw at
tsntion, q horse TO draw cart, a plaster
to draw blister, topper 70 draw cord,
a dog fight to draw crowd, and an
"ad'' In the paper TO draw trade.
J. M. South Of Mayville, who also
owns farm on the John Day, Is the
most extensive melon raiser in this
country. He informs US that he had n
acres In melons this season and he could
easily have walked all over the patch
on melons, 80 close together we're they.
He has been furnishing the town with
all the fruit" Of this kind our people
could use.
The National Medical Review says /:
"a man may be called thief, liar
and dead-beat, and yet be may pros
per and live upon the fat Of the land.
But once let him be called "Doc," and
his professional success 10 at an end. II
a man calls you .Doc,' you need never
expect penny from him for any pro-
fessional services you could render.
This may not hold always, but it is 80
near the truth that 1t may pass for q
rule"
| John Lyons, who has been studying
law here under his brother, T. II. Lyons,
for the last six months, will leave next
Tuesday, 25th, for Salem, where he will
enter the law school Of the Willamette
University. He is very bright young
man and will no doubt make success-
ful attorney. Owing to his pleasant and
and agreeable manner he has made
many friends here who hope he will re-
turn to Condor after his term in college
A Mitchell correspondent to The Dalles
Chronicle says; Jack Hamblet, who
murdered Ben Gammay near Mitchell
several months ago, has been in his old
haunts again. He was at lew Reting's
(near Mitchell) and staid all night and
part OF day recently; but there seems
TO be no move TO arrest him. There s
a standing reward Of $3.50 for HambIet's
body, dead or alive, and it's wonder
some one doesn't try TO earn" the
money.
We are informed that eight families Of
immigrants from Douglas county arrived
here last week with view 10 settling
on some Of the vacant land in this vi
cinity. They are acquaintances Of A.
Hartman and A. 7. Lacey, just north Of
town. These people have used good
Judgment in coming here, as this is
destined to be the most prosperous coun-
try on the coast when II becomes settled
up as 1t should be-by an energetic,
working class OF people.
The cost Of moving wheat from the
Palouse country TO Portland is l4h cents
per bushel, and the market price OF
wheat 10 from 28ts to 2S cents. The
cost from here II 8 cents bushel, and
the price IL 30 cents. II the wheat is as
good, which il is presumed TO be, why
should not the price be 8 cents more
than in the Palouse, since there is that
difference In the freight? Again, wheat
is selling at 20 cents per hundred in
Portland, or AZ cents per bushel, and the
freight is 9 cents, leaving SO cents, with
3 cents for warehouse dues and co,nmis-
sions, why should not the price here be
at least SO cents?--Dalles Chronicle.
The Fossil paper, with its usual and
long-accustomed practice OF encoura-
4 ri ng crime and shielding criminals, last
week saw fIt TO criticise Wayne hamil-
toms effort to bring to justice Clarence
Zachary, who was charged with the
larceny Of Mr.. Hamilton's colt. Wheth-
what business has the Journal to try
the case and acquit him, without know
ing anything about the facts of the case.
The object OF a preliminary examina-
| tion Is to examine into the evidence TO
ascertain If q crime has been committed,
and II Is presumed that the magistrate
before whom the examination is heard
can be able to ascertain whether or not
Il crime has been committed. without the
Journals nieddlesome interference. The
Journals tendency to encourage crime
is having It's desired effect. Judging
from the large amount of criminal husi-
ness from that section that comes before
the grand jury at every session, II
seems TO be true saying that birds oi
feather flock together" etc.
