This is strange. We don't know of
any Franklin M. Carter at Toledo,

Carter at Elk City, perhaps this is
the writer of the letters.
The second trial between Al.
Meaker and Jas. Lewis, the rival
cattle buyers, was had at Yaquina
last week before 'Squire Booth and
a jury of six unbiased citizens.
Two days and a night were taken
up with the case, but a great part
of the time was occupied in get
ting a jury. The jury, after being
out all night, finally rendered a
verdict in favor of Meaker Saturday
morning. This suit, it will be re
membered, was a replevin suit
brought by Meaker to recover some
cattle which both buyers claim to
have bought from a party on the
Alsea. The first trial, which was
held several days ago, resulted in a
hung jury.

J. H. Crawford, living on the
Cloak place, at Storrs, brought some
of as fine apples to this market last
Monday that have come here this
year. We have a sample of fall
pippins, the largest of which just
weighs a pound. The apples are '
all sound, almost without a flaw or 1
speck on them.
The depot ground at this place
has a much improved look since
the new side track has been exten
ded and the unsightly humps oi
dirt that have di figured the appear
ance of the grounds so long have
been removed. If the company
would now spread a godd layer of
gravel over the north ed of the
ground, where the teams will ap
proach the depot, the work will be
complete.
Dr. Wakefield, of Little Elk,
wears the blue ribbon so far for fine
apples brought to this office. Last
Monday he brought a box of apples
ot the Dutch Mignon variety that
are certainly hard to beat. There'
were fifty-one apples in the box
j and they weighed fifty-six pounds,
averaging a little over one pound
to the apple for the whole box full.
In addition to their size the apples
are sound, finely flavored, and the
entire box was without scarcely a
speck or flaw. Besides the apples
Dr. Wakefield brought down some
excellent samples of corn grown on
his farm. Two of the stalks had
two well developed ears each, and
the other two stalks had one ear
each. The corn is of the Yellow
Dent variety and was grown on
bench land. The com is quite well
matured, and is a proof that this
variety of corn can be successfully
grown here.
