The Leader is now the official paper pf Lincoln county, having been declared so by the county court last week by virtue of its having mow subscribers within the county than any other paper, No wonder the banks are having a hard time of it, In the newly settled county of Lincoln there are thousands of dollars stuck away in old stockings and other safe places that have formerly been in bank vaults, For a banner scandal town Salem is away in the lead, It seems like there must be a lot of people in that place who have nothing to do but tend to some one else's business, and they keep very busily engaged in doing it.

Duller, one of the oldest settlers on the liny, left with his family for Klamath comity, where they expect to make they future home. We regret losing Mr, Dut lcr, us he was one of the county's most valued citizens, but .we feel assured that but a short time will elapse before he will turn his foot steps again toward old Yaquina Bay, We had the pleasure of seeing the redoubtable Rev. J. R. N. Dell, at Newport the other day. We had heard so much ol Rev. Dell that we had formed an idea of about how he would look. We would say that our idea was away off, and that if we were out shooting all the jieople we met who looked like a preacher, the Rev. J. R. N. Dell would be jHrrfcctly safe. TO UK NT.

Governor Pgnnoyer has addressed the following letter to each member of the legislature: "Having re ceived numerous communications urging me, in view of the present financial (stringency, to call an ex.7 tra sessiqii of the legislative assem bly fpr the purpose of passing a law for be stay of execution on ajl judgements fr ong year, I request that you, as a member of the state legislature, would express your opinion as to the advjsabijity pf so doing." W. L. Davis has severed his con nection with the Silvurton Tribune and has returned to Newport, We do not know what business he ex pects to engage n, at that place, but we do know that he came up yesterday and got 3 license to marry Miss Stella A, Cressy, one of New port's handsome young ladies, and we suppose that before this reaches our readers that they will be united in the hojy bonds of matrimony. Here's to Mr. and Mrs. Davis, may you live long and prosper. I'iciili; nl Oyster City, On Tuesday last the members of the Oyster City Sunday School gave an entertainment and picnic, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all those who were present. The pro gram consisted of vocal and instru mental music, speaking etc., and under the direction of Miss Cora Gregson. Everything passed off without anything happening to mar the enjoyment of auyuue, The day was simply perfect, just enough breoie. blowing to keep things cool, but in spite of the gentle winds the young folks were glad every once in a while to quit their games and seek the shade of the fruit trees in the orchard of Mr. Geo, King. After the speaking the dinner was announced, and to see the will ingness with which all pitched in would do any ordinary mortal's heart good; ''hard times indeed" if any one has got it into their head there are hard times on Yaquina bay, he had better attend a picnic at Oyster City and be at once un deceived,, . . . However all things must have an end (yes even dinners) nd every one was obliged to confess they had had enough, although some of the boy looked sorry when they saw the remainder of the good things being packed up, but sorrowful looks quickly gave place to smiles as the girls suggested games, and then all were busy again until half past four, at which hour the picuic came to an end, all being united in the opinion that they had spent one of the most pleasant days of. (he summer. May prosperity and success at tend the efforts of the members of Oyster City Sunday School, and all the citizens of that little burg who behaved so royally to their visitors is the w ish ol their friend Wide Awakk.
