"A DAY AFTER THE FAIR. .

We clip from the "Daily Standard"
the following very appropriate edi
torial on the improvements at va
quina Bay, which very evidently ex-
hibits the fact thatlthe present editors
of that paper have the independence
to say what they meai., regardless of
surrounding influences. This article
will appropriately apply to a few
other papers in the State as well as
to the "Port Oxford Post:
There is vein Of jealousy running
through all editorial in the last issue
of the Port Oxford Post that ridicules
the idea Of Yaqnina Bay with its
shoals ever becoming port of any
pre,ensions, that if it had been treated
fairly and the desire TO show the adj
vantages Of Port Oxford not been
I quite 81 prominently pushed forward,
case not altogether bad might have
been made out. However, at a time
like this, when surveyors and con-
tractors are at work on the road to
Yaquina Bay and the statement pos
itively made that track is now affoat
for that enterprise, the attack OF our
envious contemporary OH the coast is
ill-timed and as small as it's own jour
nalistic dimensions. IT it be true, as
stated, that Yaquina Bay must al
ways be shallow harhor at the very
best-such one as deep water YES
sells will never-can never enter,'
the sPort Orrord Post" should have
made it apparent long ago, and be-
fore intelligent men, VITO have doubt
less looked before leaping, had in
vested their money in railroad. TO
that point on the coast and had forced
the preliminary work into practical
shape. 1t i'll becomes coast paper,
or any other paper in Oregon. to find
fault with and try to place obstacles
in the way of an enterprise that is
now well under way and its sea ter
| minus definitely settled upon. IF the
selection of Yaguina Bay was mis-
take OH the part of the parties inter-
estrd in running the railroad from
the heart of the Willamette Valley
by a direct and short ronte TO tide
water, it is too late to faunt il in
their faces now The incorporators
must make the most Of it, and il is
the true course of every honest sper
in Oregon to help the venture by en-
couraging words rather than aim to
retard it by derision and post naortena
arguments.

which it is believed will effect the desired
object. He bore the operation well, and
has now recovered from the effects of ether
ization and is in excellent condition.
AS soon as the patient had been put under
the influence of ether, a long and slightly
curved instrument was introduced into the
wound, pushed between the ribs aud carried
downward along the track of the bullet
| until it's end could be felt below the last
rib from the outside. Holding this instru-
ment in the wound as a guide, DR.. Agnew
then made a counter incision below the
twelfth rib, cutting directly through the
integument until his knife met the end of
the first mentioned instrument at the point
where he wished to intersect the track of
the ball. The operation was not difficult
or dangerous one and the patient bore both
it and the etherization extremely well.
There is now an opening to the deeper parts
Of the wound which does not pass between
the ribs and which can always be kept free
and unobstructed, and no further trouble
from accumulation of pus IS anticipated.
