The Newport News official (?)
election returns are immense. They
create two new precincts, Ona and
Eddysville, and raises the vote of
Drift Creek precinct up to 63 on
sheriff, besides numerous other er
rors. A very pleasant farewell party
was given at the Hotel Lincoln last
Saturday evening, in honor of Miss
Bertie Buford. The evening was
spent in games and dancing, with
ftn interval during which all par
took of an excellent supper. All
present pronounce this one of the
pleasantest parties of the season.
, There are a great many people
from the outside who ore earnestly
inquiring when the Siletz reserva
tion will be thrown open to settle
ment. This indicates that many
homeseekers have their eyes turned
on this country. It will not be
long we trust, before there will be
hundreds of cozy homes of indus
trious settlers in the beautiful Si
letz valley. . ,
The State Reform school board
has made the following appoint
ments: Joseph Janes, of Salem,

lem, gardener; G. W. Smith, of
Portland, chief cook T.J. Buford,
of Toledo, farmer; John King, of
Salem, assistant farmer and officer;

teacher; Mrs. T- Jay Buford, of

Mrs. J, A. Hall, who went to
Nebraska a short time ago, writes
that she has just experienced an
encounter with a Nebraska cyclone
which came near unroofing the
house she was in and shook' things
up generally. She said also that a
drouth has prevailed there and
the whole country presents a dc
plorable aspect. When she left
here she was somewhat dissatisfied
with Oregon, but she says now that
she is perfectly contented to return
to Oregon to stay.
We would call the attention of
the city marshal to the pernicious
and dangerous habit of the boys,
and some of the young men of this
place, of jumping onto the moving
trains. The habit U indulged in
by many who are old enough to
know better, and while dangerous
to the life and limbs of those who
foolishly do it, it is exceedingly an
noying and bothersome to the train
men and hinders them in the dis
charge of their labors. The mar
shal should arrest some of the offen
ders, if he has any authority so to
do, and if no authority exists the
council should create some at once
by the enactment of an ordinance
on the subject. : .

various parts of the county. If you
can't send some every week send
as often an you can.
A petition has been prepared and
forwarded to Washington asking
for the establishment of a post-
office at the Pioneer stone quarry.
Theie are several people beside the
quarry people who would be bene
fitted by such an office and in all
probability it will be established.
A very pleasant entertainment
was given by the ladies ot Yaquina
last Tuesday evening. The pro
gram consisted of musical and lit
erary selections, and concluded with
a laughable farce. The Claremont
took a load of Toledo people down,
all of whom reported a very enjoy
able time.
Quite a number of people from
Toledo went to Newport last Sat
urday to witness the ball game
played between the Amateurs, of
that place, and Hot Stuffs of Toledo.
The Amateurs done them up with
a score of 56 to 23, but the Hot
Stuffs showed their good grit by
challenging them to play on July
4th, at Toledo.
T. Jay. Buford and family left
last Monday for Salem, where Mr.
Buford lias accepted the position as
farmer, and Mrs. Buford as a
teacher in the state refoi in school.
We regret to loose them from our
community as their places in the
social circles will be hard to fill.
They take with them the best
wishes of our people for success
and happiness in their new home.
The Albany Democrat wants to
see C. W. Watts, of that place, the
next state game warden. If the
next legislature has any regard for
its pledges it will repeal the law
that created the office of game
warden. It is a useless and ex
pensive affair, and partakes too
much of the flavor of the old world
aristocracy.
Trot. S. T. Adams came down
from Salem last Saturday and too'.;
a view of the school house and suv-
rnnn,iinr it nt r. v,,v ,.

Adams will teach one of the de
partments of the public school nr.-
der his principalship. Woojbuvu

The editor of the Newport News
professes great love and admiration
for the people of Toledo. We sup
pose that it was his. overpowering
love for them which induced him to
publish the following miserable lie
in his paper on May 31: "so far as
we have been able to ascertain, the
only road built is a little spur of
about three miles to intersect the
Newport and Corvallis road, and
we are reliably informed that Iu
dians and the county paid for that."
Of course every citizen of Toledo
knows that he loves them.
Eddy ville will celebrate the glo
rious 4th in true American style.
Irs. J. L. Akin is reported to be
lying at the point of death at her
home in Philomath.
The printers want $700 for print
ing the ballots of Marion county.
Lincoln county ballou cost $70.
The county clerk has received
the blank assessment rolls for 1894.
There are four of them, one each
for the clerk, sheriff, assessor and
to the secretary of state.
Mrs. N. L. Lambert, of Yaquina,
has been appointed agent for the
Wiley B. Allen Organ and Piano
company. Parties desiring any
thing in that line will do well to
call on or address her.
Sigfried Theiler has been duly
started oh the read to American
citizenship, having renounced all
allegiance to all foreign prince,
potentate, state or sovereignity,
ani particularly to the republic of
Switzerland.
The regular passenger train will
be put back 0:1 the roai ne ct Mon
day and we will receive a slightly
better train service. Receiver
Clark finds that the busiueis will
waimni me running 01 sucn, a tram
and will
keep abreast ' of the de-
ds of t!,e travelin? public.
T':e prospect for a good summer's
travel over the road is very bright.
The orchard of the Yaquina fruit
company at Nashville is doing re
markably well this year and makes
a good showing to the passers by
on the railroad . Most of the trees
are now in their third year and
some of them are beginning to
bear. It is not the intention to let
the prunes come into full bearing
for two years yet. The orchard
appears to be well managed and
well kept, aud shows that managers
of the same are practical fruit men.
The Salem Journal is filling its
soul with sorrow because Col. T.
Jay Buford, of this county, has been
appointed farmer at the state re
form school, and slops over with
columns of type about it, and
mourns and will not be comforted.
It says that there are plenty of re
publican farmers in Marion county
that might have been appointed
who are practical farmers. The
trouble with the Journal is that it
is too narrow and bigoted to see be
yond the narrow confines of Salem
and Marion county. It thinks that
within these borders lie all of Ore
gon, and that it should have all the
state institutions, all the state ap
pointments and all the state pap of
every description, and sets up a
mournful wail if any other part of
the state gets anything. The Jour
nal's spasm of reform in the Buford
case would be more marked were it
not known that the Journal is the
most pliant tool of the state house
ring, and it only squeals when the
teat is taken from its mouth. Bu
ford may not have spent his life on
the farm as a practical farmer, but
neither did the appointee whom he
succeeded, nor will the one who
will follow after. Practical farm
ers are scarcely ever rewarded in
practical politics, and no one knows
this any better than the Journal ed
itor. Buford's appointment was
no doubt a reward for political work
and so is every other appointment
in the institution from Superinten
dent Hendrix down, and Mr. Bu
ford's appointment is just as fit as
any the rest of them, aud the Jour
nal swallows them because they are
all from Salem, with but oue ex
ception. The howl of the Journal
only indicates that the Journal had
a pet for the same position who
failed to get appointed.
