MED by Mrs. Holton's sister, Miss
Roberts of Grant county, Oregon,

visit in southern Oregon They will
go to Warrens in short time. Doug

the Rogue river mining districts. I
DR. and Mrs. Frazey, relatives of
the Moreheads, are here from Port
land, Oregon, and are staying with
Mrs. McCrae. Mrs Frazey is mil
liner and has purchased Mrs. West
lakes interest with Mrs. Curl. The
DR.. is not in good health, which is
his reason for coming here. He may
go into practice.
DR.. G. B. Shirley is putting up an
Office west of the Vendome. The
Improvement Co. are anxious to have
the quarters now occupied by the DIR.
vacated, as it is desired to throw the
offices and ware room behind into
one large store room. The company
evidently has it engaged for some
business, of what character we are
unable to learn.
The Supreme Judge Cigar Factory
is now settled.in its new location in
West Weiser and visit to its quar-
tiers will develop signs of substan-
tial business. Two cigar makers are
kept busy filling orders, and it does
not take long to observe that they are
putting some excellent stock into the
chief grade, and the cheaper grades
are also good in proportion.
The SIGNAL has had special room
built in the office in which to keep
job stock Dust is an enemy to job
stock and we aim to have the clean
est lot IN the country and will keep
a constantly increasing and varied
supply. You cannot get neater
. piece of job work than we give you
and our prices ale always in just
proportion to prices in all other
branches of trade in Weser.
A gentleman asked us, "Why do
you deprecate whooping on the streets
and then so frequently 'whoop' in the
: paper?" There is considerable differ
ence. Yelling on the streets disturbs
c and jars the ears of a quietly inclined
public. A big round ''whoop!' il
the paper disturbs nobody, not ever
e the sleep of an invalid 1t is a sigr
: of exuberant spirit which is no
: offensive in any sense. Isn't that SO
now?
a Mr.. Thomas, gentleman from
It Wyoming, has been here for some
s weeks arranging to buy our spare
market sheep. He is paying 81. *
/ for yearling weathers, ST. 30 for year
It ling ewes and 81 60 for two-year
k olds. Washington county will have
k about %, 900 surplus sheep to dispose
of this spring, which will bring il
fl from this item about 500, 900. TIL,
