Robert T. Lincoln division of the county repub lican club was organized at Gillton last Friday evening with nineteen members. This is an encouraging outlook. That particular place was, with the exception of two or three voters, claimed by populists, but there seems to have been a revelation in political affairs at Oillton. Like other places, the light has dawned and by its dawning there has come many changes. A little action on the part of republicans will bring many things to light. Has Much Interest. C. A. Foster. of Portland, was in town Monday look ing after timber Interests in this county. He expresses great confidence in tha future of the county, in that respect, and mora especially so since there are such bright prospects for railroads to be constructed through the county.
