Beet Sugar Factory.

Monday morning A. j. Hackett left
Union for Chicago TO report the progress
that has been made IN raising the subsidy
for securing the establishing of a beet
sugar factory in Union county. The cap
ilalisis who are 10 erect the factory had
given the committee until the first of the
year 10 complete the subsidy, but as the
time had ca pired and the subsidy has not
yet all been raised, 1t was considered ad-
visable for MIR. Hackett to proceed to
Chicago and make the best show ng pos
sibie of the lands and amounts subscribed
and endaavor 10 secure another extension
of time to enable the Union people to
fully complete the required bonus. There
has been nearly enough subscribed, but
owing to the fact that number OF the
owners of lands being non-resldents and
the tard ness of others IN making deeds
to the tracts subscribed. the amount has
uet fulfilled the requirements, but it Is
thought the amount can be made up In
the course of a short time.

Broke Jail For Fun.

Says the La drande Chronicle: A man
named HotchLiss was a passenger on this
mornings train bound for Union. Mr.
Hotchklss stated TO La Grande man thai
he had lately been an inmate of the instI.
tuition in which this county keeps its
malefactors, being accused of robblng a
store at Pine valley. A longing came
upon him to see the metropolis of the
county aud draw breath or two of the
atmosphere of freedom. He could not
resist the impulse, and therefore broke
jail the other night. and came to La
drande. Having gratiied his desire, he
was returning to Jail a contented man.
1t Hotchklss' tale be true, 1t forms quite
a commentary on the condition of Uulon
countY's jail, from which prisoners seem
able TO depart at pleasure.

Navigation sus pended.

Navigation along the Snake river has
been suspended for several weeks by the
o. R. & N. company, owing to the fact
that the stream has been heset by
masses of solid and floating ice, says the
Walla Walla Statesman. However, now
that the river is again open, naviga ion
will be resumed Wednesday, the 10Th
inst. at the Lewiston enj. On the
Snake, between Riparia and Lewiston,
the company has three steamers-Lt,r-
iston, Spokane and Ain, ia. The two boats
first named were placed in winter quar-
ers, some time ago at Log Cabin, and
the Aimota only ceased making trips
after the river became closed with ice.
For the present. the Almota will be the
only steamer that Is to make trips, as
the great rush of freight is over for the
season.

"Judge McUIinton of the superior court

was. in November, elected superintendent
of schools IN that county and received the
largest majority of any of the successful
candidates, but on the strength of an
opinion received from the attorney gen.

oyerruled the demurrer TO the complaint,
which decides the case as far as the supe-
