scored seventy hits, and the CU2feder
ates scored only forty six per LOCO.
There were $500 killed and wounded
on both sides
If the casualties sustained in battle
may be taken as evidence of good
fighting, there was desperate work at
Bull Run. On the Federal side not less
than 1854 men were killed and wound
ed. The loss fell upon seven brigades.
Five of the seven brigades lost an
average of go men, which was the
average loss in Hancock's brigades in
the celebrated fight in the wheatfield
at Gettysburg.
The Confederate loss in killed and
wounded at Bull Bun was about 1000.
The brunt Of it fell upon three out of
the ten brigades engaged. The three
brigades lost 1,3OO men, an average
of about 435 to a brigade They be-
longed to General j. e. JOhnStOn's
army and were the fighters for their
side in the struggle on the Henry

won a brevet and a generals star for
galantry in command of battery.
His was one Of two batteries that
fought so gloriously for the Henry
house hill. But for an accident they
might have turned the tide there. All
was going well with them until the
regiment uniformed in gray approach
ed and was about to be deluged with
canister, when the chief of artillery
declared that the strangers were
friends. Several Union regiments
wore cadet gray on that field. The
gunners held their fire, but the men in
gray did not. They peppered the
batteries at close range, cutting down
every cannoneer and killing many of
the horses Ricketts, lieutenant was
killed and he himself terribly wound
ed. Lying where he fell, he was soon
cared for by southerners he had known
in the old service. His wife joined him
and with careful nursing saved his life.
Sherman tried to regain Henry
house hill. 1t was there he lost Colo
mel Cameron of the Seventy-ninth
highlanders. This regiment dashed in
among Ricketts, idle guns and tried to
set them going again; but, finding the
enemies fire too severe, Cameron de-
cided to charge. Come on, my brave
highlandersn he shouted, and started
for the timber where the Confederates
lay in cover. He was shot dead. 1t is
asserted that Colonel Wade Hampton,
the impetuous South Carolinian, hot
Cameron to avenge the death of a
nephew at the hands of the Sixty
ninth, also in Sherman's brigade. TAX

On July %, the day after Bull Run,
McDowell's army was in camp and
bivouac around Washington and Alex

of Lincoln's resultant call for troops,
and the battle gave an impetus to re-
cruiting throughout all the warning
states north and south.

Of Louis d. Brandeis. Of Boston, IA
nous of rhis activities in the Bal

big legal battle between the inde-
pendent dealers and the tobacco
trust
Brandeis represents the National

soclatlon. These companies claim
that the trust is attempting to put
something over in It's plan for dlsso-

assert that is plan afoot to create

The school board will hold its next
regular meeting tomorrow evening.
Arrangements will have to be made
at this meeting for relieving the
crowded conditions in the Grant and

can accommodate 1t is expected
that a teacher will be placed in the
Portable School which was con-

grade class has been transferred
from the Grant to the East school,

calls, but this is not Joe's fault. The
trouble is caused by the fact that the
trains pull in from Falls City and re-
main in West Salem only 80 minutes
before starting back. Now, it will be
seen that Joe has less than 80 min
utes to get his passengers over from
one train and back to the other, and
this prevents his calling for passeRg-
ers, unless arranged for an hour or
so in advance. Joe is compelled, un-
der the law, to walk his horses across
the bridge, and this further cuts
down his time.
Those desiring him to call for them
should do SO early, so he can take
them over as he goes to meet the in
coming trains. This would compel
them to wait in West Salem half an
hour, but it Is the only way he can
accommodate those not in the busi-
ness section.

chairman stated that he believed that
the 100000 spent by Stephenson and
his campaign managers for liquor
and cigars was illegally expended.
Continuing, Sackett declared that
he had paid l.. H. Bancroft $3.50 for
the general organizing of Richland
county" He knew that Bancroft
was a candidate for the legislature,
and voted for Stephenson for United
States senator, he said but he de-
MED that he had paid Bancroft for
his vote. He said that he had simply
given the Legislative candidate the
money to be spent in Stephenson's s
behalf. He said that he knew of no
single voter who had been induced to
vote for Stephenson as a result of
the senator's campaign.

which they are taken, Mr. Bailey
says, lies directly on the state line

ment for assault and battery against
David Mattox, who was arrested in
a hop yard near WoOdburn. The
charge made against him before the
committing magistrate was that of
assault with intent to commit rape,

dence was not sufficient to establish
it. j. c. Dopinspeck is the person
named upon whom the battery is al
legged to have been committed. In
dignation among the hop pickers ran
high after the commission of his Of
fense and they were preparing to
