TOLEDO-SILETZ- DALLAS RAILROAD. , In what is known as the Siletz Timber District is perhaps 1G.O00, 000,000 feet of as fine timber as there is in the world. It has re mained bottled up for wantof trans portation. Its natural outlet is through the Yaquina Bay. The land on which this timber stands is first class farming land when cleared. When under tillage it will be worth more than it is now with the tim ber op it. One farm in the Siletz district netted $66.50 .per acre last year. The great need of this sec tion is a railroad. Some of our own citizens realizing these things and having grown tired waiting for others , organized themselves into a syndicate for the benefit of tne entire county, and to build a rail road into this great viigin forest and this empire of untold wealth and thus open it up to modern pro gress and settlement. The corporation will be legally formed in a few days and a contract for the construction and equipment of the railroad has already been let to the American Contracting Com pany of Portland, whicn corporation builds and equips the railroad for its bond issue. The right of way to Siletz has been practically obtained and the officers of the American Contracting company are now in Toledo arranging to open up a branch office here and crowd the work on the Siletz di.ision, which they expect to complete before the winter rains set in. The county is unanimously in favor of the rail road and it would be strange indeed if any citizen were opposed to it. The promoters and officers of the railroad being residents of thia county is a gurantce that it will be not only honestly and efficiently managed but that it will be oper ated with the prime object of de veloping the latent resources of Lin coln and Polk counties. There can be no doubt but that this railroad will cause an immence influx of per manent settlement of tarmers in this county where they can obtain as fine land as there is in the world and at remark ably low figures. That the Siletz division will soon be completed and in operation there seems to be no doubt and the con strction of this railroad means the expenditure of over a half million dollars in Lincoln county within a year. Success is now the word with the affix i of Progress in Lincoln county. Let everyone help. Real Estate Transfers. Catherine Conklin to H R Fant, lots 3 and 4 block 3 Vincent's ad to Toledo. $1.

Tho concert given, at Woodmen Hall last Wednesday evening by Mr. and Mrs. Shed Rcsebrook and Heir Fritz Hanlein was one of the most enjoyable musical treats ever given our citizens. Seldom is a town the size of Toledo favored with such talent. We have all heard Mr. Rosebrook play many times, but this was our first opportunity of hear ing Mrs. Rosebrook play. She is a finished pianist, one of the very best on the coast. Herr Hanlein, late of Berlin, Germany, is recog nized as a master with the cello. His playing is wonderful. Any time the Rosebrook boys give a musical here they are assured of a full house and an appreciative audi ence. The program as rendered at the concert was one of the most classical and but for time and space we would like to present it here. After the concert about forty couples enjoyed a dance until the wee hours. Jack Fogarty has purchased steamer Truant of the Modern the Provement company. Jack tends to operate the boat here the bay, making his head quarters here at Toledo, doing towing and a freight and passenger business. He will run the usual Sunday excursions to Newport, leaving Toledo Sunday morning and returning in the even ing. He also purchased the big scow which he will usa in handling heavy freight. A party consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Newton, Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Arnold, Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Howell, Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Mc Cluskey, Mr. ana" Mrs. Arthur Nye and Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Akin, went to Siletz Saturday evening for a pleasure trip. The ladies and Mr. Newton walked over Saturday after noon. They all returned foot-back Sunday evening. They caught lots of fish. Last'.Friday George Howard, an employe of the Fir & Spruce log ging camp, came near losing his life by having a snag fall on him. The snag struck him in the back, knock ing him unconcious, he fell on his face with the snag across his back and shoulders. He was brought to town and placed under the care of Dr. Burgess and is doing nicely. Mrs. Margaret Harrison accom panied by her granddaughter, little Henrietta Howell, arrived in the city the first of the week for a visit with relative and friends at this place. ESCAPED WITH HIS LIFE. "Twenty-one years ago I faced an awful death, "writes H. B. Martin, Port Harrelson, S. C. "Doctors said I had consumption and the dreadful cough I had looked like it, sure enough. I tried everything I could hear of for my cough and was under treatment of the best doctor in Georgetown, S. C. for a year, but? could get no relief. A friend ad vised me to try Dr. King's New cure." Its positively guaranteed for coughs, colds, and all bronchial affections. 50c. and $1.00.
