Mrs. G. Bethers left last Wednes day morning for Philomath where py will visit for. few days, 'Miss Jessie Alexander returned from Portland last Saturday even ing and will stop at home for a time. A social party was given in 'honor of her return at the Blake House Saturday night. A couple of weeks age the Leader stated that the Rebekahs Lodge to be organized here would be the first on the Bay. We learn since then that this is a mistake, that . there was once a Rebekahs Lodge at Newport, but was allowed to go down. . -Thos'. Drew, the steamboat en gineer who was receptly sentenced to the .insane asylum from this county has 'been discharged as cured, and took passage on the Alcatraz , for , San Francisco last Tuesday. It was only a good case of aggravated jag on the part of Thomas Drew. ' . 1 1 He joke runs that- the citv council of Newport appropriated $50 t'o send Dr. Bayley to Salem to get a memorial from the legislature concerning the improvement of Vaquina Bay, and that he failed to get the memorial but did get him self appointed health officer of Vaquina Day. Just how true the ' .story is we do not know, but give it for what it is worth; The county coutt did wisely in loriHing find creating a justice of the peace precinct ont of the Siletz. and hi "this'way extending the state laws over that part of the county In no other way could the county expect to obtain the taxes from the trust deed Indian lands on the reservation. It is optional with the Indian Department whether or not they pay these taxes, and it is their settled policy not to pay them unless the Indians in return get the bertOHt of the state laws. At the teacAe'ts' examination held in this place last week the applicants to receive certificates to teach were, Jerry Banks, of Glen, and Miss H. E. Hampton, of Nashville,. first grade; Miss Inez Depew, of Waldport, Miss' Bertha Plimkett, of Kings Valley, Miss Effie Crosuo, Miss Belle Butler and Eli Gaither, .of' Toledo! second grade; Miss Alice Trenholm, ot Waldport, Miss Ida Skinner, of Nashville, Miss Laura Malav. of Newport, Miss Nellie Ghotmley, of Ben.

Tarker wishes us to say that the rumor that has been spread abroad in the county that he was in Salem wot king to get his salary raised is without foundation in fact. He states that his business in Salera was in the iuterests of all the assessors of the state and not for himself individually. He fur says that when the committee X uors came to 1 is county in '.Ha bill he named $i,'aoo recover at an early date and spend many days with us. Mrs. C. G. Copeland went out to Corvallis last Thursday and bought a big bill of goods from Murphy, Grant & Co's man, and drove to Philomath the same day and visited her parents. ' '. W. W. Saunders, who was par doned from the penitentiary by Governor Pftinnvr Vii- -. M mitted to the bar at Spokane upon the recommendation of George W. Belt and J. E. Fenton. Saunders is a graduate of Harvard. The commodity report of the 0 P. at this place for the month of January shows that there has been billed out of this office 2,492 tons of freight. Of this the greater portion of this freight was rock from the Pioneer quairy. There is probably more freight billed .out of. .Toledo than in any other station 011 the 0. P. Mr. Ed. Stone, the representati ve of Messrs. Bonner & Hammond, went down over the Bav.' , He was accompanied by Supt. Clark.' We are informed that Mr. Stone expects orders from Boiiiier & Hammond to proceed to repairing of the .road immediately. It is to be sincerely hoped that this is true, and that active work will begin on the road at an early date. O. Nelson had the misfortune to lose his house by fire last Sunday night. Mr. Nelson left home Sun day evening, going .to Vaquina, and did not return until Monday afternoon, cud did not know of his misfortune until his return. All .his belongings were in his house and the loss, while small, comes very heavy on Mr. Melson, who is a poor man. His house and con tents was covered bv a small amount of insurance, and such frivolous matters, and only turned aside to take such, mat ters up when on the defense - We have labored hard to forward the interests of the county in every material way. We do not say it in B. F. Jones returned fiom Salem anil l'ortlaud last Thursday. He spent some time at Salem and saw ine woncieriul antics of the great reform legislature that is just wind ing up its course. He states that feeling runs very high at Salem, and it is his opinion that there will be no election this session. Mr. Jones also conversed with Senator Maxwell, of Tillamook county on the subject of creameries and gained much luformation that is of value. He made a special trip to Portland to look up creamery matters. He feels much eucouragment over the results of his investigations and be lieves more than ever in good to be derived from opening up this in dustry in our county. The ""sharp Hick'! which the shrewd editors of the Yaqujna Bay News and the Vaquina' Post played to try to secure the county printing has proven to be a genuine boom erang to both of them. When thev thought that they could use the names of the subscribers to the a spirit of boastfuluess, but it is a fact that 110 one can point to a single project originated at heme for the development and welfare of the county since the Leader has been CstnnlmliH lt- -Iim- i- dOie all in its power to aid it help it along, not by mere words alone, but by financial help as fur as it was able. This was but right, however, and will ' continue to be the policy of the paper in the futuse. The Leader expects to shape its future course by the' past, It will work unceasingly for the in terests of Lincoln county without regard to locality, believing that in the. development of the county we will all be. benefitted. ; Thanking the people for past patrouage and trusting that we will contiuue to merit the same, we start in on Volume in. --.- Jii'Wih la The llivew Considerable complaint has beeu made about the practice of many of the settlers along the Yaquina and Big Elk of cutting and throwing brush and other debrii into the river. The effect of this is to blockade the streams and to cause bars to form in the channels at various places. The following sec tion of the .Federal law recently enacted will be of interest to all parties: "Section 6 That it shall uot be lawful to place, discharge or deposit, by any process or 111 any manner, ballast, refuse, dirt, ashes, cinders, mud, sand, dredging, sludge, acid. or any other matter of any kind other thau that flowing from streets, sewerSj and passing therefrom in a liquid state, in the waters of any harbors or rivers of the United States, for the improvement of which money has been appropri ated by congress, elsewhere than within the limits defined and per mitted by the secretary of war Any and every such act is made a misdemeanor, and every person knowingly eugaged in or w ho shall knowingly aid, abet, authorize, or instigate a violation of this section shall, upon conviction, be punish able by hue or imprisonment, or both, such fine to be not less than day for Salem, where she will visit friends for a time.
