Leaving Toledo Tuesday after noon in the front seat of a one mare buggy, we drove out over the new road lately built by enterprising citizens of Toledo and vicinity. which intersects the old Corvallis and Newport road at what is known as the Dundon bridge. Here we found Father Dundon taking care of a large crop of hay. Mr. Dun- den has lived for over a quarter of a century on the old homestead, and now when he is turning down the shady side of life he has a good comfortable home to live in and enjoy the fruits of years of honest toil. Passing along the county road and by the large and thrifty looking orchard of Mr. Dwnden w? t'"'',d to the left, leaving: the old Cor vallis road, or sometimes called One Foot in Ten, by old settlers, and following up the winding val ley of the Depot slough, we soon came to the old Hardison farm, now owned by the American Mortgage company, of Portland. Its broken dewn fences and fast decaying buildings makes one feel like he was going through a country grave yard. But we soon came to a more cheering scene, a half mile further on, at the fine farm of Wm. Enos, whom we found busy unloading the last load of hay from a large and well kept meadow. A half mile further on we passed by the old Bagley farm, now ow'ued by C. W. Kurl, who by the way hasn't let any grass grown under his feet, having built many rods of good fence and otherwise improved his farm. Resuming our journey we soon arrived at the bachelorarm of our old friend J. S. Copelatid! Here we were also agreeably surprised at the many improvements that were unaer way. And hard by were Messrs. Crosno and son, Tillotson brothers, Mathews and Ben. Jones assisted by six horses, several plow, scrapers, axes aud grubbing hoes, they were making the dirt fly! Upon asking a leading question as to what was intended byihis whole sale onslaught on the unoffending crabapples and willows, we were directly informed-that a dyke 16 feet wide and four feet high was to be built from the Slough to the hill, a half mile away, to answer the double purpose of a dyke and also make a road bed for the Toledo Coal company, who will soon lay track thereon. Here we saw Mr. Crawford, the photographer of Al bany, who was up the Valley for the- double purpose "of regaining lost health and to get a shot at some of the splendid scenery ori the head waters of the Depdt slough. Passing on up the valley we found the fine farm of Albert Waugh green with the growing crops. Here we saw eight acres of fine potatoes that in our judgement will bring in more shining shekles this fall than any one hundred and sixty acres of wheat in the Willamette valley, We must not forget to mention that we were entertained by R. F. Colla more, who has au adjoining farm to Mr. Waugh's, which, by the way, would make a Polk county hop king smile, for here on the bottom lands of the Depot is the'' hop- r lands of Oregon. Passing on up the valley we passed by the splendid farms of Messrs. Hartnon,, Rader, Kyniston and Dick who are all making im provements this season. We also noted that on the left hand fork of the Depot that C. M. Carlson had made many substantial improve ments during the last year. Crossing over the peninsula to the Ollala, and striking it at the Wade farm, we now headed our mare for Toledo, a three mile drive down the valley of theOllala. Pass' ing by the splendid stock farms of Wade, Stanton, Hoffman and Mc- Cluskey who were all hard at work. Iu the way of improvements, we noted that Mr. Stanton had built a fine residence and otherwise beau tified his farm. Mr. Hoffman has built a' large baru. Johnny Steel bas pruned his orchard and built an addition to bu barn. Mr. McClus July 26, 1894. key is reclaiming a large piece of swamp land and otherwise improv ing his valuable farm. After a careful estimate of the bottom lands on the Depot and the Ollala, we are of the opinion that there is about 2,000 acre3 of rich bottom land suitable lor hops, sugar beets or anything that will grow in an Oregon climate. Add to this the bottom lauds along the Yaquina and its tributaries and the four thousand acres of rich tide lands and you have a total of about eight thousand acres of land, all on the water courses where its pro ductions can be handled cheaply and easily. We are glad to see the spirit of improvement reaching out over our county. For the trouble has been heretofore that we were all pregnant with the idea that we need not im prove our lands, all that we had to do was to wait until the railroad was built, then sell our brush patch es and decaying fences to some one who had more money than brains. We have climate and soil; we have muscle and cnterpri.se; we have one of the finest harbors on the coast! we have millions of feet of fine saw timber; we have mountains rich in rock and coal; we have fifty miles of coast line dented by four bays, along the ever green banks of which are yet many homes to be located. On two of these bays the escape of steam never wakened the echoes, or has the pioneer's ax struck tlie blow that has so often marked the path way toward civilization. But ere the bells ring out the old year, the handiwork of man in his efforts to build him a home for his family, where God and nature has so richly provided the way, may yet be seen. Hard times and railroad strikes we may read about but neveprealtae if we but improve our lands and de velop the many resources within the borders of our own county, The Corvallis Times, in speaking of the Burleigh matter says: "Yes, the Irishes, Samuel and 'Daisy, iu spite of the fact that a little more than a year ago they were driven out of a house of -ill fame t,hey used to run in Corvallis, by a crowd of angry, disgusted citizens, have still the ear of the governor of Ore gon and their story has more weight with him than does the de cree of a righteous court and the verdict of twelve honorable jury m,en. Sam is the same Sam that lived for more than a year with Daisy before he married her, living before and after the wedding on the fruits of the wretched traffic in human flesh she carricJ on. Daisy Irish,' b'etlef known'-faer. as "Big Six" bas always been a notorious woman, a fact that under the com mon law is a Strong 'circumstance pointing to her father's guilt in the case. Collectively they are a sweet scented pair for the chief executive of a great state to hold up to his people as persons whose affidavits in the consideration of executive clemency are preferred to the sol emn sentence of Judge Shattuck, or the sworn verdict of the twelve Lincoln county jurymen, whom it iook dui two minute ; to agree mat Burleigh was guilty. If it is to this class, the harlots and the leeches who feed on harlot traffic, that the governor turns tor counsel, decent people who have been shamed, courts whose decrees have been outraged and juries whose verdicts have been insulted by .the wholesale pardon of criminals ceed no longer wonder at the spectacle." The Salem Statesman enthuses as follows, concerning the Oregon Pacific: 1,A most brilliant future is staring the much abused Ore gon Pacific in the face. This road will come out of the kinks yet, and with a return of "good times" it will be extended over the mountains into Eastern Oregon and beyond. On the east it will have direct connection at Boise City with transcontinental lines. On the west ocean steamers will give it connection with coast ports and San Francisco. A lines from near Stay ton to Salem and on down the valley will give it cou-. section with the great Central Willamette valley and Portland, and from Salem another line will be built with coast termini at Tillamook and Astoria. The Oregon Senatorehip. Although the legislature will not meet for six mouths, there is con siderable speculation as to the sue cessor of Senator Dolph. The large republican majority assures the election of the man dominated at the republican caucus, even if a few should bolt. D.P.Thompson, who has made his lecture on Tur key a means of going about the state, would be acceptable to the silver men, as he is a prominent advocate of free coinage, but his personal characteristics do not win him many admirers or ardent supporters. Senator Corbett is credited with an ambition to end his days as United States senator, but he is equally objectionable to the silver men and his health is against him. Sol Jiirsch has never lost sight of the office nor forgotten his defeat for which the mission to Turkey was not a sufficient recom pense. Two younger and more active republicans are mentioned for the place, C. W. Fulton and Thomas H. Tongue. Both are ex tremely popular, able, energetic and gifted with the rare quality of doing things for otheis cheerfully and earuestly, and neither has es tablished a financial record that is objectional to the extremists on either side. There are no doubt others who will be mentioned or will keep their lightening rods in order. The situation is both in teresting and perplexing. Salem Statesman. Among the replies received by the World to a request for views as to the Pullman strike, was the fol lowing from Joseph Medill, editor of the Chicago tribune: "Ibelieve that the result of this strike will be pf greaji benefit to the country, It is like a thuridet'storm that sudden ly sweeps up, purifies the atmo sphere and results in a better sup ply of health giving ozone, It will result in congress devising laws whereby disputes between railroads and their employes will be har moniously adjusted. I have great faith in the Anglo-Saxon race to govern themselves. The people have been asleep until awakened by this great economic earthquake. I believe that iu twelve months we will have laws that will provide for the full settlement of future dis orders. I think the contract sys tem can be applied successfully by the railroads. Employes should Be engaged under contract and hold their positions so long as they abide by the rules of the company and perform their duties faithfully. No man should be discharged without due notice, and no man should leave the company without serving notice. I endorse the scheme envolved by the huge brain of Bismark in the German empire, The good advertiser is a much more valuable citizen- thna he gets credit for being. He is a pusher for trade. He recommends his wares not only to the citizens of his own city but to thousands out side of it, By bringing trade to his own house he increases the prosperity of all about him. More than that, he does much to favor- f'VV. 1 ' ....... . . aDiy impress tnose wno nave oc casion to patronize him. If a city has good advertisers it is generally understood that its'people are active, energetic, prosperous, and if these people have these characteristics the city must also have them. This is an active generation at.d people Hke to go where there is activity. People have cause to know that activity follows adver tising and the crowd always seeks what is best advertised, whether it be a private business or. a com munity for that fealon. Tacoma Ledger.

The boys report a grand time, and many thanks to Toledo club for their.. kindness, and will try and return the compliment on the 5th of, August. And if possible change the score in favor of Elk City. The boys also return thanks to Mrs. Vincent for bread and honey. While she was very sweet, some of the boys doubt her age and think she is 28 instead of 16. Arthur' Rochester is a good umpire with equal eights to all. O. C. Simpson, contractor on theS mail route to Glen, has a petition to change the mail day on Saturday to Friday, and the scedule to leave Elk City at 7 a. m. This will be a benefit to all on the line, as mail coming in on Friday will not be held at this office until Monday; 44 it is now coming in on Saturday. Jack, Dated July 24, 1894.' An auction at Pullman, Wash., last week, was brought to an un timely end by an incident out .of tne ordinary. Tne auctioneer had just received an opening bid of $10 when the sobs of a woman inter rupted proceedings. The wife of the man whose team was being sold under a mortgage, had risen from a sick bed, weak and scarcely able to stand, she forbade the sale. She said that her husband viai away in the mountains when the horses were taken; that their crops must be cared for; that the horses were the only means of gaining a livlihood, and that the debt which the horses were being sold to satis fy, was already secured by a mort gage on this year's crop,, ''df. course, the auctioneer and every body else lost interest in the pro ceedings, and the sale was post poned. Meanwhile; soma way will be found to avoid taking the horses from her. 1 , On Monday C. G. Rawlings had Mr. Boyd, the photographer, to go up to Mrs, Simons' and take a group of five generations, such a group as one will hardly see in a life-time. They were all of the feminine gender, the eldest being lot years old, while the youngest was three and a half months. The group consisted of Mrs. Simons, aged 101 years, Mrs, Joe Welt, aged 74 years, Mrs. J. II. Clelan, aged 44 years, Mrs. C. G. Rawlings, 1 aged 20 years, and Mrs.1 RawHiigs'i baby, aged three and a half months. Whether it is on account of such a healthy country that members of this group have reached this age or not we are unable to say. But we ' do say that we will wager that a person will have to hunt a long ' time before they could find an other such group. Lebanon Ex1 press. I A word of warning might be in , place to those who go fishing and 1 hunting during the dry season.', The woods are full of decayed mat ter that is as dry as powder and will burn as readily, and the drop ping of a match or the neglect of a c'dtnp fire inight give birth of a forest fire that would not only des-; troy thousands of dollars worth of property,' but would endanger and sacrifice life as well. There is a' heavy penalty attached and persons identified as being responsible can be severely punishel. Forest fires are now raging on the lower Colum-' bia river. j Railroads carry a man from New York to San Francisco for $So; a hog weighing the same as a man id carried for $6; the advantage in favor of being a hog, $74.
