The railroad muddle has assumed a more muddled condition than ever before. The matter of the confirmation of the recent sale came wp for hearing at Corvallis last Tuesday and upon the showing made by the various and conflict ine elements the court refused to confirm the sale. Just how the mattei now stands is the mast difficult to say. We suppose that the court will order a new sale, which will take place about next May.

Price and Work Satisfactory A representative of the Lkadkk in company with Senator Crosuo and Albett Peterson on Tuesday week visited the A vies coal mine, which is located in section 13, nbout a mile and a half west of Toledo. We found Captain Ayles a very plensnnt geulkMimn, who showed utk their prospects. They nre run ning a tunnel about 5x6 feet nnd have gone into the mountain side n distance of 145 feet. They expect to reach the vein within the next thirty feet The Captain has good experienced men, and is building a good tunnel, timbering and log ging it in a good substantial man ner. The mine is locnted one-half mile from tidewater, nnd if sufficient coal is found will bo very easy of access. We hope thnt the company may realize their f .'iidest hopes, ns such enterprises are the making of our country. Granny Matthews' mouth got loose again last week nnd said "The County Court took the adver tising out of the hands of the sheriff, and instead of letting the contract to the lowest bidder, let the job for printing the delinquent tax list, to the Leader for $558. It is safe to say the tax payers are in (or $500 for this publication notice. Hut then we nre not recompensed for this small outlay of $500 by having a delender of the peoples interests nt the county scai. Lu to be paid for, nnd nble exponents of public economy cannot work for nothing. Granny, you wouldn't lie, would you? Now did or did not Sheriff Land is wnit six long days for you or your sou to come nnd bid on the tax list?

The latest railroad news is em bodied in the following circular is-. sued by Receiver Hadley: "All Employes and Material Menj The court having decided to con tlnue the operation of this property until such time as it can agaiq be) offered for sale, it becomes the duty of all of us to calmly consider the situation, and each one be prepared. to do all that is within his power to protect the common property, , which is the security and the only security which any of us have for the ultimate payment of the sums, now due you. We can expect no nkl from without.' The property 1 must earn its own bread. It thus becomes our; duty the duty bf self-, protection to combine our efforts to make such sacrifices that "the property will, if possible, earn its own living.

We often hear our business men ani our farmers say, just wait until the railroad g' cs ahead, then times will be good. This is no doubt true, but why wait until the road is built before we make n move. Why not go ahead and improve our farms and dcvelope our resources as best we can, and be in good shape to enjoy prscrity and good limes The trouble in all new countries is there ore a certain class of people who want to sell out and go farther west, as soon as civilization advances. This is all right, but if a farm is let to grow up to brush and weeds it does not present a very good appearance to the stranger looking for a location. We have always observed that im proved property will (tell over un improved. There is a farmer living near Toledo that took up a home stead on a rough hillside, and is now farminif about one acre of level land and three or four acres of a mountain side. This man has good barns and out buildings and a neat cottage to live in, and is lay ing up several hundred dollars every year for a rainy day. Notwith standing, he has a large family to ' support. We only cite this instance I to show the fact that if one man Christmas day passed off nicely. Everyone enjoying Chrismas din tiers, but as I couldn't attend them someone was kind enough to send me a nice Chrisinas cake.
