The South Bend people are determined to locate the county seat of Pacific coun ty In their city, If they have to carry it there. The question of finally locating the jprat Is to be settled at the term of court commencing at Oystervllle on Tues day, - February 14th, but the South Bend folks do not propose to wait till that time If their actions are any evidence of their Intentions. The result of the re cent election was to 6lve the county seat to South Bend. The people of Oystervllle enjoined the auditor and county com missioners from removing the seat of their offices from the present location at Oystervllle, on tho grounds of fraud In the election, and demanded a recount and nt the sitting of the superior court at Cheholls last Saturday, the South Bend people obtained an order raising the In junction. An alleged copy of this order the prosecuting attorney attempted to serve on the auditor on Sunday last, but he refused to accept service on the grounds that It was Sunday, not a proper day for legal Bervlce, and also that the papers were Improperly certified. On Sunday morning three steamers, the Cruiser, Kdgar anjl Favorite, arrived at, Astoria and Clatsop Wagon Bond. The last meotlnj of the board of trus tees of the Astoria, and Clatsop wagon road was held at the residence of Mr. A. E. Turley. , There were present Messrs. C. S. Cake. A. E. Turley. J. W.

He refused either to accept service or give up the keys. They then demanded the keya of their respective offices from Treasurer S. F. Lockwood, County Clerk A. Bowen, and Sherfff T. Rooncy, who promptly gave them up. The mob- then proceeded to the courthouse and took all the records and papers from ths offices of the trean urer, county clerk, and sheriff. They left a prisoner In the Jail, not deeming him part of the effects of the sheriff's office. All tho papers and books were packed up In fish boxes for transportation to South Hond.

Have 5,000,000 Souvenir Half Dollar Coins in their treasury, the gift of the American, people by Act of Congress. The patriotic and historic features of these Coins and their limited number, compared with the millions who want them our population is 66,000,000 have combined to create so great a demand for these World's Fair Souvenir Coins that they are already quoted at large premiums. Liberal offers from speculators, who wish to absorb them and reap enormous profits, have been rejected for the reason that This is the People's Fair-- . We Are the People's Servants and a divided sense of duty confronts us We need $5,000,000 to fully carry out our announced plans, and We have decided to deal direct with the peopleTo whom we are directly responsi bleamong whom an equitable distribution of these National heirlooms should be made. The World's Fair Offer to the Americas People: - That none of our plans for the people's profit be curtailed we must realize from the sale of 5,000,000 Souvenir World's Fair Fifty cent Silver Coins the sum of $5,000,000. This means $1.00 for each Coin, a much smaller sum than the people would have to pay for them if purchased through an indirect medium. Every patriotic man, woman and child should endeavor to own and-chensh one of these Coins, as they will be valuable in future yearsa cherished object of family pride. Remember that only 5,000,000 Coins must' be divided among 00,000,000 people. 1 nese umis could be sola at a high premium to Syndicates, but we nave enough confidence in the people to keep the price at a Dollar for each Coin, as this will make us realize $5,000,000 the sum needed to open the Fair's gates on the people's broad plan.
