They intend buying a small price of land close to town. There are all the elements for a prolonged fuss in that Drift Creek land business. People of different nationalities, and a disputed piece of land, makes the foundation for a big fuss, and as it loo often occurs, for a tragedy. Wise and cool advice should be given and followed. We hope and believe that the worst of the case is over. It is now a matter for the land office to decide, and we hope that the settlement will be speedy and equitable. Jack Oglesby. of Fall creek, was in Toledo today. Mr. Oglesby is having some trouble over a county road over in his country. Some stockmen have fences across the road and refuse to remove them. Mr. Oglesby appealed to the road supervisor to have the fences re moved, but the supervisor refused to take anyt action without an order from the county court, and the court has refused to authorize the supervisor to have the fences removed. Mr. Oglesby states that I he only has to open eight gates to get out from his place now. Toledo branch of the labor exchange will burn a kiln of brick this season.

Mr. Sam Case, of Newport, re turned from Portland last week, where he has been at the hospital for a time. We are sorry to be informed that the hospital physi cians gave Mr. Case no encourage ment.

We say it, without boasting, that Toledo has more ability of the kind named above than any other town of its size in Oregon.

For sale by O. O. Krogstad, druggist. Mr. A. B. Hammond is expected to make a tour ot inspection of the O. C. & E. line this week. As lue construction of the Astoria line draws to a close it is hoped that attention will be given to the ex tension of the O. C. & E. Quarterly examination of teachers again, and several applicants are present to try their skill at all the wise, deep, and sometimes shallow questions sent out by the state board. Last examination it was mental arithmetic that tripped up several of the applicants. It is thought that the members of the state board that have the framing of these lists of questions, have been too busy trying to figure out their own salaries since Kincaid has tied the treasury up, to have had any time to study out brain puzzling problems for the poor wouldbe pedagogues. The Westfield, (Indiana) News prints the following in regard to an old resident of that place: "Frank McAvoy, for many years in the em ploy of the L., N. A. & C. Ry., here says: 'I have used Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for ten years or longer : am never without it in my family. I consider it the best remedy of the kind ever manulactured. I take pleasure in recommending it.'" It is a specific for all bowel disorders. For sale by O. O. Krogstad, drug gist. Sam Logan, well known to nearly every reader of the Leader, j has lived many years on the Bay, and during that time has "bucked" tide with small boat, steamboat and scow, in daylight and dark, in all times and through all seasons. In fact Sam has a kind of local reputa tion as a "bucker" of tides, it be ing said by many that they have seen Sam wait until the tide turned just to get to pull a boat against it. But Sam tried a new mode of buck ing the tide last week, and it came pretty near being Sam's last buck. He started from Newport to Otter Rock with a span of mules and a hack load of provisions. In round ing a point Sam crowded the tide a little close and met with an accident He thought he could get around between two waves, but he forgot that he was driving mules. .The mules saw a breaker coming and stopped and all of Sam's efforts failed to get a move 011 them. The breaker caught the hack upsetting it, and strung his load out in the waves. Sam got his mules and himself out, but he lost his load of groceries. The next time Sam tries to buck tide it will not be with a span of mules. Tetter, Salt-Kheum and Eczema. The intense itching and smarting. Inci dent to these diseases, is instantly allayed by applying Chamberlain's Eye and Skin Ointment. Many very bad cases have been permanently cured by it.

The present in cumbent's term expires about the present time, and his successor will no doubt be immediately appointed. There seems to be an enormous crop of fruits of all kinds now as sured in Lincoln county this year. The season is now so far advanced that no danger from frost is feared, and but little fear exists of a long continued cold rain that would in jure the blossoms. Small fruits will be a little late, but a few warm days like we have had this week will bring it on rapidly. The only thing injured by the spring frosts that we have heard of has been the strawberries and a few early peais. The damage to the strawberries has been slight, and no doubt the late buds will make up a full crop. We happened to overhear a part of a conversation between a repre sentalive of a Cascade lumber mill, and a gentleman of this place who is erecting a good sized business building, the other day, and we heard a remark made by the home gentleman that deeply impressed us. The mill representative was trying to induce him to purchase material from his mill, and said that on a bill of the size he wished, that he could get a much lower price by buying of an outside mill. The gentleman made the statement that he could not afford to buy of outside parties, no matter what the price was. That he firmly believed in patronizing home institutions whenever it was at all possible to do so. It struck us that the senti ment was a good one. If all the lumber that will be used in Lincoln county this summer be bought of Lincoln county mills, it will mean not only the keeping at home of a large sum of money, but it will also mean almost steady work for' our mills, steady work for our loggers and a general benefit to the com munity. The difference of fifty cents or a dollar per thousand in .1. r 1 , . . iue price 01 lumoer snouia never cause any Lincoln county man to buy away from home. He will be the loser in the long run. Sunday School Picnic. The members of the M. E. Sun day school will have the first picnic of the season next Saturday, if the weather is fair. The picnic will be held in the grove near the Parrish school house. The committee extends an invitation to all to attend, and especially the children. The children are requested to meet at Copeland's store at 9 o'clock wnere teams will be provided to 1 take them out. To Cur. Coo.tlp.iton Forotrr. r.V P'f1" Candy Cathartic. 10c ortSc U u C.

The celebration will be a basket picnic. All the details will be arranged by our next issue, and will be then published. The Best Remedy for Rheumatism. (From the Falrbaven. (N. Y.,) Rcirister.) Mr. James Rowland of f his vil lage, states that for twentv-five years his wife has been a sufferer from rheumatism. A few nights ago she was in such pain that she was nearly crazy. She sent Mr. Rowland for the doctor, but he had read of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and instead of going for the physi cian he went to the store and se cured a bottle of it. His wife did not approteof Mr. Rowland's pur chase at first, but nevertheless ap plied the balm thoroughly and in an hour's time was able to go to sleep. She now applies it when ever she feels an ache or pain and finds that it always gives relief. He says that no medicine which she had used ever did her as much good The 25 and 5 cent sizes for sale by P.O. Krogstad, druggist. For Sale. Poland China pigs for only $t each- A.
