AlSea Bay.

Those who read the first column
and a half of last weeks LEADER,
received a brief introduction to the
Alsea Bay, Abrupt illusions to
any of the places or things of that
article, except, of course, the
typographical errors, will be alone
the privilege of the writer.
To boom Our country is not our
aim, nor is it our aim to over-color
or misrepresent any portion of our
locality, and thus mislead or de
cieve those who desire to learn the
facts. Bat our design is 10 present
the real merits OF Our district, and
of those important factors which
will most speedily develope It's re.
sources. This we believe to be the
privilege, yes, the duty of any and
of every American citizen. That
grand and noble patriot and states
man from whom our county takes
its name, with his inAexible hon
esty and uncompromising frmness
to the truth, ever advocated the
principle of "the greatest good to
the greatest number" and so we
feel proud to concur IL the same lo.
bic sentiment, Doing what one can
to promote the happiness and well
fare of those around him, is an ele-
ment of true American citizenship
as we'll as a divine precept.
Vino can stand at the mouth OF
Alsea Bay, on the summit Of Va
quina Johns point, and looking
out upon the broad expanse of the
Pacific ocean stretching out befoie
him as far as the eye can see, i'll
calm, majestic beauty, glittering
like liquid crystal in the morning
sun, just as it did when Balboa first
discovered it, and not be impressed
with the grand possibilities of
American commerce. When Ex-
president Harrison was at Portland
few years ago, he said, in speak
ing to the people at that place con-
cerning the opening Of our rivers
and harbors and of the improve
ment of our commerce on the Pa
cific coast, that we were only be-
ginning to receive the attention
that we would receive in the near
future. The near future of that
time is about here now, and the
good people Of our bay are not go
ing to receive their portion of the
appropriations without their asking
fol it. Many good people fail tc
receive the richest blessings of the
Lord because they fail TO ask fol
them. The command is, "Ask ant
we shall receive;" KNOCK and i
shall be opened unto you." Wha
we want to do is to ask a good
reasonable appropriation for the i'm
provement Of our river and harbol
. and then knock out the big offensive
rocks from the river and put up some
, jetties and wash out the channel
little more at the mouth of the bay
I say a little more; by this / wis
7 to make the impression that the Ell
5 trance is not naturally bad, bu
needs improvement. The captai
, Of the schooner Mary Gilbert,
: have been told, says, "the bar a
the mouth of Alsea bay is less dan
gerous to cross than any bar he ha
crossed north of San Francisco, an
= that he believes he can sail In will
out the aid Of a tug. This is eli
' couraging in the extreme.

Raise Their Salaries.

ing legislature should do and that
Is TO raise the salaries of the county
Judge and county treasurer Of Lin
coin county. The salaries at pres
ent are out OF all proportion to the
work required. That Of the county
judge is $500 per year, and Of the
treasurer $500 per year. Ii is al
most absolutely necessary for the
judge to live at the county seat,
and unless he happens to be already
a resident of the place and has
son.c otneI business III connection,
he cannot live on the salary with a
family and pay rent, etc. 1t is
necessary that the county Judge be
at the county seat at all times, un-
less called away on official business.
There are but few days in the week
that some taxpayer from some part
of the county is not in town to see
the judge upon some county busi-
ness. Should the judge not be a
resident of the county seat, these
journeys of the taxpayers, often
from remote parts of the county,
would be futile and useless, and oi
much trouble and expense to them.
The judge should be paid a salary
of at least 5000 per year. A man
who is not worth $50 per month is
not worth being county judge OF
Lincoln county and have the con-
troll of the business Of the county
that the judge has, Or i'll other
words, if he hasn't got ability
enough to be worth $50 per month,
he has not got sufficient ability to
be county judge. Almost the
same is true of the Office of county
treasurer. The law requires that
he keep an office at the county seat,
In order to do this he must streside al
or near that place, and the pitiful
salary of $500 per year is altogether
too small for the treasurer to keer
a family in or near town on. The
salary of the treasurer should be
raised to $500 per year, or, at the
least, to $500.
In advocating these raises we are
aware that the county is poor il
finances, and that the closes
economy should be used in the adj
ministration of its affairs, but OF
the other hand, we do not believe
that the people of the county wan
either officer to serve them for moth
ing, or for less than a fair remuner
alton for their labor. The salarie'
of both officers are out Of all pro
portion to the services rendered
We believe that it would be mucl
better for the county to cut Of
some Of the semi-unnecessary ex
penses that are incurred from tim
to time, and pay these officers a
least a reasonable salary. w
make this plea, not because eithe
Of the officers aforementioned ar
especial friends OF favofi,es of ours
but because our honest observa
tions leads us to believe that the
are underpaid for the service
rendered.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Taken to the Hospital, Where His
Wounds Are Cared for by
DR.. Ancker.

Martin Cunningham, a teamSter en-
ployed on the city engineers street and
sewer force. met with serious. If not a
fatal accident yesterday. A few minutes
before C p. IN. Cunningham was driving
down Chestnut street when his horses
took fright at something and ran away.
Just before reaching the corner of
South Washington street the joltlng
of the wagon, caused by the ragged
pavement. threw Cunningham and the
seat upon which he sat to the street.
Cunningham head struck the ground
with full force. and he lay there
mOtionless. William Beisang, who wit
messed the accident. raised the injured
man up. and with the assistance of a
friend carried him into a saloon Oh the
corner. The right side of his head and
face was covered with blood, which
poured from his scalp, and the lid of the
eye appeared TO be torn away. He re-
gained consciousness in few mo-
ments, and gave his name and address.
He lives at 245 Bantil street with his
parents, and is single man, about
twenty-one years old. The central sta
ton patrol wagon, which had III the
meantime been summoned, conveyed
Cunningham to the city hospital. The
physicians found that he had sustained
a deep scalp wound OH the temple. in
the region of the eye, two inches in dia-
meter. which extended clear to the
bone. There was also a severe confusion
below the ear OH the left side. AT mid
night Cunningham was resting easily,
but his condition was serious. The team
ran across Washington street and disap-
peared.

the success of the Democratic party in
this campaign than any other young
man of his years In this city. although
this is his first experience in active
politics. He began by making a
few speeches for Mr.. Darragh, who
is also member of the club, but his
fairness to the other side, the clearneas
and logic of his arguments and his
simple but forcible manner of speaking
attracted so much attention that Mr..
Darragh and the club have insisted OH
his speaking somewhere in the
city almost every night during
the campaign. Mr.. Ney is
not quite twenty five years old. He was
born and brou ght up OH his fathers
farm near independence. TO-, where he
remained, with the exception of a few
years, till he reached his majority.
Daring the winter months he attended
the public schools OF that city, and when
sixteen years old was granted teach-
er's certificate. He taught school
several terms, and in 1888 accompanied
his father to Sacramento, CAL
ifornia, where the latter was engaged in
constructing levee OH the Sacramento
river. Assisting his father for year or
more in this work he returned to his
home in Iowa in the early part of 1890,
and in the fall Of that year entered the
law Office of Gov. BoieS at Waterloo, 10.
What time he could spare from his law
studies while there was given to
looking after the extensive farming
interests of MIR. Boes. In 1892
he was admitted to practice. and in
February of 1898 came to st. Paul.
After residing here the required length
of time he was admitted to the bar of
the state. AS finishing touch to his
legal education he attended the law de-
partment of our state university for six
months of last year. and graduated with
honors from that institution last
June. His retiring disposition and
close attention to business has
somewhat limited his circle of acquaint-
ances, but he has made many new
acquaintances and friends during the
past few weeks. Though laboring hard
for the cause of Democracy, he is In no
sense politician, and says that he be-
lieves i'll politics as duty and not as a
career.
