Mrs. George Buford and children
arrived from Los Angeles Saturday
night and will again, take up their
residence at the Agency. Her
husband dislikes that portion of
California and is again off for the
mines Mr. Buford informs us.
The apples stored in the Grady
building owned by Buoy &Landis,
were loaded into freight cars Satur
day. Monday Mr. Landis loaded
about a car at Elk City and now
the apple buying and shipping is
completed and off their hands.
Severt Anderson, who owns a
farm on Big Elk, who formerly
worked on the government works
at Newport; came from Astoria
Friday to look after his home, the
title of which was before the court.
He has been absent about six
years, but has changed not at all.
The Grady building is now
occupied by a billiard and pool
parlor conducted by C. W. Bogue
It has been well patronized during
the past week although not yet
stocked or improved as the pro
prietor intends to have it. This
new business venture will doubtless
be well patronized by our citizens
who love these games to pass
away a heavy hour.

C. S. Sullivan, superintendent of
the Corvallis & Eastern, was a
Saturday visitor in Toledo. He
spoke very encouragingly of our
city's past progress and hoped to
see it continue. He wishes our
people to bring such rock as he has
placed on the depot grounds and
cover Hill street from T. P. Fish's
store to the court bouse and from
the track on Third dreet to A. T.
Peterson's residence. The cost
will be but very little as the
Company will load the cars and do
the hauling at just the matter of
cost to them. This will have to
be done before our business streets
can be anything but a raudh'ole in
winter.

Secretary Wilson, of the Agri
cultural Department, had less to
say oh the President's recent trip
South than most of the other mem
bers of the party. He did take
occasion, however, to advise some
of the colored people whom he met
to plant clover and raise sheep and
cattle. "The trouble," he said,
"is that you keep too many dogs
and too few sheep. The cost of
feeding one dog would raise too
sheep or one hog." Another
economic statement was that if all
the salaries received by the poli
ticians were compared with the
value of the eggs laid every year,
it would be found that there was
more money in hens than in politics.
Youth's Companion.
Court Notes.
F. A. Godwin came down Mon
day to look in upon court.
Jack Porter returned from Port
land Saturday and attended court
several days this week.
The genial J. R. Wyatt of Al
bany came over Saturday to be
present during court session.
Attorney Ed Bryant of Philo
math, transacted business in this
place during the session of circuit
court.
Mr. Yokem of Portland, a stock
man, attended court Monday, a
witness in the Meaker-Lewis cattle
case.
The Trombly brothers, Sam Hill
and wife, J. Blaser and others were
present from the Ona neighborhood
Monday.
One moral to be learned from the
late shooting affair is this: Never
carry anything but a Smith &
Wesson gun.
Messrs, Bollen, Fred Chambers
and Oscar Woods came over from
Siletz afoot late Monday evening
to attend court.
An attorney should have his case
well in hand before coming into
court he will find no time to in
form himself there.
No time is lost in court where
Judge Hamilton presides. He
practices true economy. The tax
payers will note this fact.
Attending court from Corvallis
comes Attorneys W. S. McFadden,
A. L. McFadden, W. E. Yates,
E. E. Wilson and J. H. Gibson.
Robt. Chambers, . a Little Elk
reader, was in town several days
during the week doing business at
the court house and elsewhere.
No grass has grown or other
velvety green growth has sprouted
neath Sheriff Ross' feet this week,
or on his head either for that
matter.
Treasurer Hyde has been con
spicuous for bis absence this session,
but Wm. Alexander and Chas.
Crosno have occupied their usual
positions.
Those in attendance upon this
court doubtless noted that Judge
Hami'ton cared to hear nothing
but facts; and they bad to be right
to the point.
Uncles Hutch and Jack did their
utmost to uphold the dignity of the
court. Neither cracked a smile
throughout the session during
"office hours."
J. K. Weatherford attended
court the latter part of the week,
spent Sunday at Newport and
Monday returned home to attend
office duties.
B, F. Swope, who formerly
resided in this city but hails now
from Oregon City, arrived late last
week to attend to business before
this session of court.
Attorney W. S. Hufford of Port
land, well known to all our readers
arrived Saturday night to be
present during circuit court. Looks
as natural as an old shoe.
Lincoln county from Summit to
the sea and from Salmon to Yahats,
was well represented at the court
house Monday. It was also noted
that the Leader readers were on
all sides.
Some localities always take
premiums for their fine fowls, pure
bred cattle, big pumpkins and un
excelled cabbage heads, but our
Alsea country never fails to produce
a crop of the best jurors in Lincoln
county and should take the bum.

place on the map as Yaquina Bay. If you are American,
