HOW The Election effected
Them.

The republicans in this vicinity
were quite hilarious over the recent
election news, and it affected the
various reps. in various ways.
Charley Crosno shaved off his side.
whiskers and bought new two-bit
plug of tobacco; Bill Alexander
got his hair cut and bought new
derby hat; Judge Burt put on a
2x4 smile and said that the demo-
Gratis "didn't know a little bit;"
Bob Campbell knocked the price of
choice neck steak down to a bit a
pound; Clark Copeland hurrahed
for Mckinley; Sy Copeland went
home and fed all of his sweet milk
and cream to the hogs, and many
other queer capers were performed
by the overjoyed faithful. Never
mind boys, two years is a long
time to wait but the democrats
have waited longer than that many
a time.

Lincoln County aUiU make
An Echibit.

The funds necessary to pay for
space for a Lincoln county exhibit
have been raised and our county
will have an attractive corner in the
exposition building at Portland dur &.
ing the month of December, and af-
ter the bells have rang out the old
year for the new, and for two weeks
after we have written it 1895. The
10Th century is fast waning, and it
behooves us to get a move on if we
expect to be in the great procession
that will go marching into the Goth
century. And now while the re-
publicans are rejoicing at the result
of the great tidal wave of public
opinion that has swept our shores
from California to Maine, do not let
us forget that we have a duty to
perform i'll the matter of gathering
up and sending to the Portland Ex-
position some samples of the pro-
duct OF LincCia county soil, raised
and fostered under a mugwump ad-
ministration.
Therefore, people all over the
county are earnestly requested to
send in samples of fruit, Grain,
grasses, vegetables, coal, rock, min
erals, etc., to Hon. R. A. Bensell
and S. G, Irwin, Newport. Luke
O'Brien and M. H. Brunk, at va
quina, Hon. c. B. Crosno and!J. F.
Stewart, at Toledo, L. w. Deyoe
and M. w. Simpson, at Elk City,
and l. F. Eddy and M, J. Allphin,
at Little Elk. All specimens will
be neatly marked with the name of
the party who iaised it and the To-
cality where grown. Arrangements
have been made for transportation
to Portland, where it will be placed
on exhibit in the place allotted to
Lincoln county, and will be care
fully looked after by Hon. John D.
DAILY and other citizens, who have
kindly offered their time at their
own expense. If the people all
over the county will take hold of
this matter and consider themselves
a committee to collect and forward
the products of Our county to the
parties named, we need not be
ashamed of the display when it is
arranged at the Metropolis of Ore
gon.

attention Farmers.

As will be noticed in another
column, arrangements have been
made to make an exhibit of Lincoln
county products at the Exposition
held in Portland this winter.
While it is true that it is late in the
season to prepare an extended ex-
hibit of the multiplied resources of
Our extremely fertile and productive
county, yet at this late day an ex.
hibit can be arranged that will
astonish the people who visit the
Exposition. The farmers and
gardeners have proven by the splen-
did samples Of their products
brought to this office during the
past two months that they can
make a grand exhibit if they so de-
sire. We earnestly hope that the
farmers will lend their cooperation
to this plan by selecting and saving
any choice or nice fruits, vegetables,
grasses, or other products which
they may have. 1t will be splen-
did opportunity to display our pro-
ducts and to attract people from all
over the Northwest to Lincoln
county. There is going to be a
vast tide of immigration to the
Pacific coast during the next two
years and it behooves us to attract
as much of it our way as possible.
The only expense to be incurred by
those donating specimens will be
to deliver the products to the par
ties mentioned i'll the notice pub
lished elsewhere by Mr.. Jones.
All other expenses will be borne by
private individuals. 1t is earnestly
hoped that all parts of the county
will cooperate in this. Our Alsea
friends will find it a little trouble
to send up their samples, but we
feel that they will be many time
repaid for their trouble.
Let us all work together and
make Lincoln county's exhibit one
of the best, if not the best in the
Exposition. We can do it if we
try, and the benefits we will re-
ceive from it will be untold.

Silets Items.

Rev. s. w. Potter, the methodist
minister, came. over from Toledo,
on Thursday the 9TH, and held
services every night during the
remainder of the week and Sunday
morning, and left us in the after
noon. Wishing him success in his
work among the Indians on the
reservation. ,
DR.. Carter stopped over night
night here on his way home from
Rock creek, where he has been to
see John Lucas, who is said to be
very sick with inhamatory rheuma-
tism.
]. w. Parrish, the deputy sheriff
OF Lincoln county, made us a visit
on the I2th. His business was to
serve papers OH Jacob Orton, whose
former wife has sued for divorce,
Mr.. Parrish failed to find his man,
he being absent from the reserva,
ton.
Sol. Stock, Of Corvallis, has been
spending few days with us.
On the Iath about 1880 p. m.
there was fire alarm given at the
boarding hail, which was soon an
swered by a great many men from
the Agency. But close invesngay;
tion proved it a false alarm. Only
smoke ascending from one of the
side flues. The excited employees
being on the opposite side of the
roof and could not see the top of the
opposite fue, from which the smoke
was coming, thought the smoke
was from the top Of the roof. The
smaller children who were just be,
ing put to bed were soon hustled
down the stairs, but were soon
quieted down, and the larger
scholars soon returned to their
rooms to study, and the smaller
ones sent back to bed.

Cre0lllelu Meetinn.

Pursuant to call a meeting was
held at the court house last Satur-
day night to discuss the creamery
question. The meeting organized
by electing o. o. Krogstad, chair
man, and ] F. Stewart, secretary.
B. F. Jones made a statement to
the effect that he had recently
visited the creamery at Vancouver,
Washington, and in a talk with the
proprietors had interested them in
our locality. These gentlemen
stated that if we could agree to
furnish at least 1900 pounds of
milk per day, and furnish a suitable
site that they would send a man
over here to look the matter up,
and il conditions were as repre-
sented that they would put a plant
in at Toledo. The matter was dis
cussed and upon motion the chair
appointed a committee of FIVE, con-
sistion of B. f. Jones, A. O..
Krogstad, R. Campbell, 7. E.
Parker and J. F. Stewart, as a
committee to visit the various To-
calities adjacent to Toledo and
ascertain how many COWS the
farmers will pledge themselves to
milk for the creamery. Those
present subscribed $I6.5o to pay
the necessary expenses incurred by
the committee. Upon motion the
meeting adjourned subject to call
of the chairman.
This meeting was enthusiastic
and harmonious. Our citizens are
fully awake to the great importance
of creamery plant for the Bay and
are determined to have one. If
the same spirit and enterprise is
kept up by our citizens they can
accomplish wonders.

A letter recently received by
Hon. c. B. Crosno from Senator
Dolph, contains the following in
formation concerning the Siletz
opening: There has been reserva-
tions made, outside Of the regular
allotments to the Indians, for
school and agency, zoo acres, for
lumber yard and saw mill, 4.o6
acres; for NJ. L. church, 8.5 acres;
for cemetery, II.5, acres. Out of
the 50 extra allotments made a
short time before Mr.. Buford retired
from the agency, but IS have been
approved. A list of the unallotted
lands is being prepared, ard as
soon as completed, the department
is then ready for the presidents
proclamation to be made. This
list referred to has been doubtless
prepared by this time, and as soon
as the Indian department is notified
Of the completion of the payment of
the Indians on the reservation the
proclamation will doubtless issue at
once. 1t seems that this should
occur in time for the proclamation
to issue by the first Of December,
in which case the reservation will
be open for settlement about Feb
ruary Ist, 1895. This will be in
time for the settlers to get in some
considerable crop next year.

Some people make bad start in life,
and it takes them all the rest of their days
to explain how it happened.
Even poverty has It's compensation. 1t
lessons our wants and diminishes our
means of SHINING.
Because mau wears good clothes and
displays gold watch and chain, it is no
evidence that he is not rascal and a
thief.
When q person is so situated 10 life
that he eau live comfortably by working
half his time, he soou gets so that he
don't want to work at all
Many AN otherwise bright intellect is
dwarfed 10y coveieousness.
Same people do all that ought to be
done to-day and others leave i, all to be
done tomorrow.
There are many blind people in this
world that would give their thousands
aud even all they possess TO be restored
to sight, who will walk in darkness all
their days rather than submit TO be cured
without money and without price by the
simple application TO their eyes of an oint-
ment made of clay and spttle.
The sum of our happiness is made up
of small things. The widow who gave
