TELEGRAPH STRIKE AT GRASS VALLEYL Jan. 6, 1870 ' We understand that the oner- ators on the Bell Graham Telephone line which runs from Spencer's store to Feter Johnston's are on a strike. They have nothing to complain of, but give us an excuse that striking is all the go, and they will not be behind the times. This line is operated by boys V learning the business. All quiet S at the office of the Western Union. 'y Pan VALLEY Jan. 14, 1870 The name of this fine valley is now snelled in the papers and by all who write about it, uPennn, which would indicate that the val- ley is named in honor of the great Quaker. Such is not the fact. The proper name is Pen, and it was so called by its first settler because there was a horse pen, or a corral, in the valley--at e very early day. As Pen Valley is likely to become a railroad terminus, we think it right to correct a mistake as to its history. . C K Uuiullv-ou-quilt!
