One of the happy occurrences of the
New Year in I-akevicw was the wedding
of Ira It. Bradley and Miss Adit Buscy,
which occurred at the home of the
bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. C.
Ilasey, on Deeemlier 31st. Quite a num
ber ( friends were invited to witness
the ceremony, and a general good time
followed thu tying of the nuptial knot.
The bride is the eldest daughter of Mr,
and Mrs. Buscy and is an estimable
young woman, who has many friends to
wish her happiness. The groom is a
prosperous young stockman of the Silver
Lake section, a bright and affable gentle
man of good uddn-ss, who is highly
sMikeu of by those who know him best.
The happy couple were the recipients
of a number of pretty and useful pres
ents, as follows:

alsmt three fourths of the land sur
veyed i in Harney county. The survey
was principally in the Buck Creek and
North Warner sections, aud near Abert
Ijike. Mr. Nickerson has leen five
mouths doing the work with a force of
seven men. In his ttavels over this
great tii'l'l he eucountereil in some
place great tracts of fine bunch-grass.
While the land surveyed ia one great
domain of grazing land, Mr. Nickerson
says there is an occasional tract that
would make a good home. In these ten
townships there are 3ii0 sections or
2.10, 4U0 acres of land. As soon as Mr.
Nii-kerson's final report is filed at Wash
ington maps and plats w ill be made by
the government' and forwarded to the
Ijikeview land office, and the land will
be oen for entry.-
Don't Want Railroad.
The Oregonian of Dec. 27 has a brief
interview with V. L. Snelling of Lake
view, and here is what our townsman
says regarding a railroad :
V. L. knelling, of the firm of II. C.
Hothe &. Co, Lakeview, is in the city.
Mr. Knelling was Register of the Lake
view land office during the last adminis
tration of President Cleveland, lie
states that timei are exceedingly good
at Lakeview. Referring to the project
ed railroad from Termo, Cat., coming up
from Reno, Nev., Mr. Snelling says the
business men of Lakeview do not favor
a railroad, lielieving that it will injure
instead of help the place. But the rail
road is going there anyhow, whether
they want it or not, according to all ac
counts. The Columbia Southern also
expects to build to Lakeview, and the
town w ill have an abundance of railroads
after awhile. The Business of Lakeview
principally goes to San Francisco. With
railroad connection Portland would
probably get a large share of it.
Thanks for the "Boquet."
S. M. Sample, ex-forwarding agent,
Termo, Cal. : "I am not given much to
flattery, and am not indulging in that
art when I say that the Lake County
Examiner is the best country weekly
newspaper 1 know of anywhere. I
have read The Examiner with great in
terest for a number of years, and must
say that in its present form there is no
peer to it in this northern country. It
is what I call an up-to-date country
paper. I can also assure you it is much
appreciated by the N. C. O. people and
everyone in my country."
Nineteen Townships.
A disputch from Oregon City to the
Portland Oregonian says that Henry
Meld rum and S. A. D. H ungate, who
had extensive surveying contracts in
Lake county, returned to their Oregon
City homes on the 25th ult. During
their absence they surveyed nineteen
towiiHhipsof sagebrush land. This land,
which lies north of Silver Lake, can
easily be made productive by irrigation.
Surveys have been made for a system of
canals to bring water from the Deschutes
river and the project found practicable.
