Officiul County' Pnper, LOCAL NOTES: T. Jay Buford went to Newport Ihe first of the week. Williams, the Newport gro-Uryiuan, was up last Monday.

1'. M. Stanton went to Corvallis bn business the first of the week. Miss Lay ton, from near Scio, arrived 011 a visit to her aunt Mrs, tlias. Dick, this evening, 'We are requested to announce Saturday night will be postponed one week, Judge Hurt, of Elk City, came down last night and Is in the city to-day.

The Judge looks like living at Klk City agreed with him. S. N. Wilkins, the Corvallis furniture dealer, was attached yester-May by Portland creditors to the Amount of It is expected hat an assignment will be made. Whnt has become of all our touritry correspondents? Give us the best you enn boys, your items beats ours too bad.

Come as often tat you can, even if your items are lew. A number of spars or small piling have drifted in on the north beach nt Newport recently. They are from 60 to 80 feet long and are fine pieces of timber. It is thought by some that they are a purl of the finnous Coos bay raft. The St.

Johns church bell has arrival in good shape but hits not yet been put in place. It was accompanied by a life-sized freight bill, which is causing the good church people to hustle to raise the Shekels to satisfactorily liquidate the same. We understand that when W. S. Hufford wfts in the other day on the Grady rond mutter, he made an offer to compromise oh behalf of Grady.

The terms, we understand, was that Grady give up all right to twenty five feet next lo Copelaud's stoic and that the county thereupon surrender all claims to the balance claimed. We have heard of many cost miles before, Imt it has never been our good fortune to run across many such cost sales as is now going 011 at the popular clothing and furnishing store of Luke O'lh ten's, at Vaquina. The tost with this sale is the cost of both buyer and seller. He is doing this- order wtfoH liie of. a large winter sloejj and make room for his spring slock, which will arrive about the 1st of March.

believe that there ore just us good bargains on his counters ns can be found in Portland or S.tn Francis- CO. Robert Campbell went lo Newport on the fust of the week, and returned by the Shaw coal mine. He brought us a sample of the coal that they ate taking out of the mine, and in appearance It is as line a sample of coal as we ever saw in any country. It very much resembles the famous Pittsburg suit coal of Pennsylvania, and is remarkable for its.ckiliiliiess. In handling it with the bare l'muds no black or sooty spots or marks uiv made, and parties who have'tiicd it s.iy that it bums as clean and free trout soot as a handles.

They also say that it Sums u-' free ft 0111 cinders. Tlu-ie hi bo no question but that it is a i v.q etit.r qua'ity an I that it ul be a cogent factor in the deW-1-t opmcnt of our country. The 1 company are working right along at the mine getting things in shape 10 supply the mmket with coal. If the whole product of the mine is as pood as the sample brought us we ii edict thlt inside of two years it -v ill drive wood piuctu.r.h out of nr local 111,11 Vets usy-1 ii'tVi it Sheriff Landis had business in Newport the first of the week. From the many honest words of encouragement we have received we are rapidly losing our fears of being "starved" or "crushed." We acknowledge a short call and a few words of honest' encouragement from Jos.

Ulflwer, living near Mill Four, on Tuesday. Wearegladtobeabletostate that our friend J. 'f umidge, who has been quiteJHor some time has so far recovered as to be able to get down to town once in a while. Hon. Beal Gaither was over from the Silelz yesterday, He reports that the grippe, jvhfcti has been epidemic on the reservation for several weeks has about abated.

The O. P. is now running mixed trains on freight days. This makes the train get in a little later on these days, but is otherwise no inconvenience, and is 110 doubt quite a saving in the operating of the road, Wallis Nash returned from a trip to San Francisco and Portland a few days ago. While at the former place, we understood, hj; met Col.

Hogg, and the condition of the Oregon Pacific was discussed at length. However, Mr. N'ash informed us that there" are no- developments in O. P. matters.

Corvallis News. j. man tnai can mm a wiioie urt of news these days to put in a pa per these days is a regular James dude, lhere may have been a time when items were scarcer for the country press on the coast, gen erally, but we believe if there ever was it was before the Hudson Bay company trappers ever struck the Pacific coast. It might jur.t as well be under stood nrst, last And all the time that the Lhaoick cannot be silenced 111 any way or manner. It is not for snle and it cannot be bulldozed.

That ends it. And it may just as well be understood also that the Lhadkk only has one Interest to protect, and that is the people of Lincoln county. The football teairi of the Oregon Agricultural college defeated the Multnomah Juniors, of Portland at Corvallis last Saturday Now if some of the students of the college would get in and win a di ploma, or prize, or something as a mark of superior learning, sonic of the people would be foolish enough to feel highly elated ovei that, also. Notice has been received and duly posted in the clerk's office that the survey of township 12, range 10, has been duly approved and the plat filed in the land office at Oregon City, and that land in saitl township will be subject to entry on and after March 1 2, 1894. This will be welcome news to the settlors in that region, some of which have lived eVi their ranches more than live years.

The end of Receiver Clark's first month will soon be at hand. Now if Mr. Clark takes what money there is on the first of the month and divides it pro rata among the laborers even if it is only a dollar each, and not let the reu ivct and the attorneys hog the whole tiling, our faith in the new administration will be materially strengthened, Anything short of this will bring the regulation kick tioiu this paper. K. Rhoades made proof ou his homestead near this place last Mummer, and the proof vyas rejected at the Oregon City land office by Register ApH'rson on technical grounds.

Mr. Rhoades appealed the case to the. laud commissioner at Washington and hasjust received word the cflect that he will be entitled to ivxke his prcof in the picsctihid way and is diiected to do so at once. We congtatulate Mr. Rlnvides upon the favorable decision, as we are sorry to see any honest eutrymaii lose his land, The stricture i.ud by the Capital Journal, of Salem, on Receiver Claik, arc both unjust and uncalled for at the present time.

Mr. Clatk took hold of the propel ty after it had been thoroughly sucked day. The ocean division was solidlv tiid uj, and the liver division was puictically in the same shape. It would have been haul to have conceived a woise state of utfairs for a new receiver to take hold of. At the present time it K-gins to look as though he was going to bling I order out of chaos, far as it nppeit.iln to hbn Is very ill-timed land out of place.

As tar as the. utlici i li.it. cs concerned we! i- '''ill Jas. M. Collins, ap-old settler 011 1 Alsea, was in Toledo last Monday, L.

F. Pipin, of Chitwood, was caller last Tuesday and gave us a short chat. i i We understand that protracted meetings will soon begin at this place. Hon. R.

A. liensell braved the elements and cAmeun from New IttlVJl LUC 4 1 11 1 It. is to the effect that ksfbett knocked Mitchell out in three rounds. The branch insane asylum OCK rHLL ana been located at Union, if the prop- erty territory can be secured There was a social dance.at Mr and Mrs. Frank Tilbjtfjon's last night, A fine timers reported by all present.

One of our star actors in the drama here the other night lost a nick out of his ear in the sword fight. No rewaid is offered for its recovery. The industrial school afthe Silelz has an enrollment of 88, and a general avenijjefUeiidauce of 84. The attendance is larger than was anticipated. We see by the exchanges that Col.

Parker, of Walla Wfilla, is headed this wayi We ought to get in and quarantine against him before he gets here. That account which vou promised to pay nie is still due, Please call anil settle it at once, tins means who are owing me. C. G. Coi'KLAM).

The Salem Capital journal is trying to work up a subscription list along the line of the O. and is hashing up a lot of foolish stuff ami sending each of the O. I', boys a lot of extra copies. We understand that the Tillotson boys have leased Chas. Kennedy's place east of town for a period of two years.

The boys will put the place in good shape with their two years services. Receiver Clark went through to Yaquina last Friday evening. He was accompanied by Crosby, the grain shipper, and they went to superintend the unloading and loading of the steamer Del Norte. Henry Wulf killed his pet Pedro, last Tuesday. Pedro had got to be too "sassy" fopsafety and went into ihe corfdition in which bears are Hlost available through a shot in the head.

John Gaither fired the fatal shot. Pcnnoyer's Christmas letter has already begun lo bear fruit. In a letter received from friends in Denver they say's "Joe and Mary were going to Oregon this winter bul they see a letter from Gov. Peiinoyer lo Cleveland that people were about to starve in Oregon and. they thought they would wait awhile." The Corvallis Times cries out loudly for dividend to the Hamilton, Job Co.

creditors, and asks the various public institutions which are claiming trust funds to waive their claims as far as the payment of a dividend is concerned. A dividend would be a very nice thing, but the complications ahead of such event are many and various. The drama "The Turn of the Tide" which was played by local talent last Tuesday night was well attended by our people. The young people who performed the various parts did quite well for the short time in which they had to prepare for it. One noticeable feature was the entire absence of long "waits" between the scenes which are usually the drawbacks of ame- tcurs.

On the whole the play was above Owing to the extremely stormy weather last Friday night which prevented Installing Officer Oliver to come up from New pott the Odd Fellows installation of otliccts was again postponed. An elegant supper for the members and visitors had been piepared at the Hotel Lincoln, and after lodge the members partook of the same with as much est as though due tiott had been had. The supper was a nicely arranged feast of good things and added another tcsiimoni- nl to the hostess', Mrs. 1 hi ford's, ability to picp.ttc a feast fit for the most fastidious, Klk City Items.
