In another column we nnounce the particu-
lars of our special clubbi arrangement with
The Weekly Detroit Free Press, paper so well
known, by reputation at least, that ny special
mention of its great merit seems scarcely
necessary. While one OF the funniest OF pa.
pers, 1t does not depend alone ON Its humorous
features for its popularity; it is equally noted
for its literary excellence. The best writer's of
America and Europe contribute TO its columns,
indeed, our readers will find The Free Press q
perfect cyclopaedia OF the best current litera-
Mre. When the great cost OF production is con.
sidered, It is a matter OF wonder how so inter.
esting and instructive journal can be furnish.
ed for so low price as one dollar u year-a
handsome premium included.
We know that every one of our friends will re
benefited BY reading The Free Press and we
congratulate ourselves and them on our ability
10 furnish twith the LEADER for so low price
ass2, 1t is certainly an opportunity OF which
al shuld take immediate advantage.

The litigation i'll the matter of
the foreclosure of the mortgage on
the property of the Toledo Coal
company seems to be no nearer an
end than ever, It has taken on an
entirely new phase. 1t will be
remembered that U. G. Hale has
been trying to foreclose a mortgage
on this property for some time.
Several months ago it was offered
for sale OIL an execution issued
from Benton county, The amount
of the bid was not forthcoming and
another order Of sale was secured
from Benton county, directing the
sheriff of Lincoln county to make
the sale. This sale was made not
long since and the property was
bid in by U. G. Hale. Last week
when Mr.. Hale's attorney appeared
in court at Corvallis seeking a con-
frmation of the sale he ran against
an injunction obtained by the law
firm of Strahan, Whailey 6, Pipes,
Of Portland, as attorneys for B. F.
Jones, of this place. Some of the
salient points set up in the COM
plant of Mr.. Jones in this new
suit are, that he and his wife were
the owners of a certain tract of
land which is now in controversy;
that the Toledo Coal company Sc.
cured a fraudulent possession of
said land; that the company,
through its president and secretary,
uttered fraudulent mortgage upon
said premises to U. G.. Hale, that
the Toledo Coal company was
never legally organized, and has
never legally met and elected
directors as by law required, and
many other points afe,set up. An
injunction was issued by Judge
Fullerton restraining the confrma-
ton of said sale, and the matter
will be brought TO Lincoln county
circuit court for adjudication.
Hon. J. D. DAILY, Benton ard
Lincoln Counties enterprising rep
resentative-elect, has gone to the
Cascade mountains, mainly for the
purpose Of showing interested
parties over the route, proposed
by Mr.. DAILY, to connect Eastern
Oregon with the Oregon Pacific
and afford an outlet, to the wool
growers and farmers of Eastern
Oregon via, Yaquina Bay. 1t is to
be hoped that Mr.. Daly's scheme
may meet with the success it de-
serves. If this twelve miles of rail-
road and ten miles of wagon road
was built Eastern Oregon farmers
could get their produce delivered
in San Francisco for less than what
itnow costs to haul it to The Dalles,
on the Columbia River, aud the
earning capacity of the o. P, more
than doubled. The plan propose
by Mr.. Daily is both feasible and
practicable; and ifconsummated will
solve the o. P. problem-be God
send to farmers and merchants, and
start a stream of commerce over the
o. P. and Yaquipa Bay harbor that
will astonish many who have never
realized the Importance of a con-
nection with Eastern Oregon.
