Prominent planters in California are bringing negroes from the 'south to drive out Chinese labor. Cotton planting is proving successful in the state. An agent tells a New York reporter that he has orders from the colonization of 10,000 negroes in the state. The figures are no doubtexaggerated.

Many abandoned mines is again being worked, and ores once rejected as worthless are being reduced with profit. In some instances quartz rock is being mined and milled in California that pays on an average not more thlin $3 per ton. There is plenty of such ore in Oregon, and mining can be conducted here 'as profitable as in California.

John Holcomb's house and barn, with 20 tons of hay, 300 bushels of oats, 200 bushels of wheat; and two or three tons of fchops, situated seven miles northeast of Independence, burned up last Saturday night about 11 o'clock. Mr. Holcomb and family were a a neighbor's visiting at the time. Tle fire was discovered by some neighbors, who broke into the house and saved a sewing machine, a stove and a few d. im.

wmmrMiKir, Strangre Deatn Mr Gamaliel of Linn County's oldest pioneer died on nis farm near Brownsville recently and was buried in the cemetery at that place on the afternoon of the next day. The manner of his death is causing considerable comment, and certainly was of a nature to demand investigation. As told us it seems that Mr Parish had bten Jjcbanon and while there got a prescription filled at one of the drug stores, for some local ailment. On getting home in the evening he took the dose prescribed just before supper. After eating he took another dose and soon began frothing at the mouth, dying about twenty minutes after taking the medicine.

A young man, we underst and was the only one present at the time. Whether it was the medicine that did it or not is a matter of conjecture, and whether, if the medicine, it was the druggist's fault, might still further bo a matter of conjecture Any way it is a case that merits investigation, and it is to be hoped that there are those in the county who take enough interest in the public welfare to give the case of Mr. Parrish's death a thorough examination. The medicine has been kept; but the body was buried without post mortem examination. Of course it is not to late to make one now.

Gamaliel I'arrish was one of the early settlers in Linn county and at one time was a man of some wealth; but during the last few years of hi3 life met with reverses whitch deprived him of most of his property; at the last Circut Court the mortgage on hisi farm being foreclosed. He was a member of the M. E. Church, and was a man of marked character, being stern demeanor; but possessing traits of character commendable in any oue. Democrat.

State University. At a meeting of the board of regents of the university of Oregon, held at Eugene recently, on recommendation of the faculty, the regents prescribed an English course ami abolished the so-called normal course, so that after this yeaf the oourses of study will be the classic, English and scientific. They also provided that outside of Latin, which forms a part ot eacli course, the students may choose either ('reek, Gernian or French as the language stu.ly in either course. They also requested the 'executive committee to make application to the legislature for a nehall, and to have section 18 of the university act amended so as to give the faculty power to examine persons coming in on free scholarships before entering the university and if found disqualified, to reject them, whereupon such appointments should become vacant. The board also adopted upou recommendation of the faculty a preparatory -course of two years, making the whole course six years.

The executive committee was authorized to endeavor to have the agricultural school in -corporated with the university of Eugene. The Ase Of Tue Newspaper. Public attention is absorbed by the newspapers; ami it is to the periodical press that (fhe literary man owes" both his salvation ami his ruin. The large class or people who read simply to kill time, satisfy all literary cravings by drinking at the streams', clear or muddy, as the case may be, of their, pet newspapers; and even the lighter class of stories appeal to them but seldom unless served up in long columns and sent thrpugh the p08tollice. It is empatically the age of the newspaper, and both author and preacher are rapidly finding themselves reduced to the choice between working for the periodical press and abandoning the field alto-, gether.

Of course, there are striking exceptions, but in the main this seems to us to.be about the sense and substance of the whole matter. Literary men are as well off fts ever, but" they must adapt their methods of work to the timo in which they live Boston Curier.

LaRansicur, who left Portland about three months ago to enter in business at Independence, Oregon, has failed and made an assignment for the benefit of his creditors, to Emanuel Chamness. The West Side speaks of the assignment as a misfortune brought aloi.t by a San Francisco jewlery firm, who pushed the payment for a bill of goods which their agent had promised should not be asked for until after the holidaj's. The want of ready mofiey made the assignment necessary in order to protect many Portland creditors. There has been assigned more than enough property to meet all liabilities. 1 A correspondent, at Lafayette says: It is evident that the or its friends f.T it, 'committed moral ft harricarrj by their late action.

The Crow Indians in MVntana have the use of 4,713,000 acres of land, 1,000,000 of which are capable of the highest cultivation, yet during aJl of last year and up to the present date, there were but ten acres cultivated by the government for the Indians, and 125 acres tilled by the Crows themselves without assistance from anybody.

From the 125 acres handled by the red men were obtained about 1500 bushels of vegetables, which wej-o consumed entirely by themselves. Last year the Crows put up 35 tons of hay ami cut over 300 cords of wood. The winter the custom among all tribes, were spent in hunting for game among the mountains and mi the plains!

Originally it was only', planned to keep 2)2 persons in confinement; and only a few months ago forty new cells were" added, making accom- Nnodations for 252 prisoners, there is a surplusof twenty prisoners, and it is necessary- to put more than designed in each cell.
