Major J. D. Daily, republican
for joint representative,
came up from Newport Oh a special
boat last Tuesday.
A representative of the State
Insurance company, of Salem, was
In town the first Of the week, and
VIM. Alexander local
agent of his company at this place.
Mrs. A. T. Peterson was taken
to Albany last Tuesday for medical
aid, Icing al-.lted with a tumor.

The populists met in adjourned

clerk; John Reese, sheriff; w. 4.
Biaggins, recorder; Major Bruce,
joint senator; Thos. Stakely, joint

Our friend Matthews, Of New
port, rode a horse nearly to death
in order to get up here i'll time to
file Newport's nomination for coun-
ty seat last Saturday. After he got
cooled down and caught his breath,
he found out that he need not heve
been in so much Of a hurry as lie
had a8 good days to go on. That
can be put down as the "march we
did not steal"
The LEADER presents its ticket
in the present campaign to its
readers this week, and will COLI
sistently strive for the election OF
the candidates named thereon till
election day has passed. The
ticket is one to be proud of and one
to which all clector can give a
hearty support. The candidates
are worthy, capable men, and if
elected will fill the several Offices
with integrity and ability.
Yaquina harbor is TO have life
saving station, the arrangements
being started under way last week.
Captain Hooper and Major Blakeney
Of the. marine service, were over
last week and took the initial steps
toward the establishment of the
station. The site has not yet been
selected, though it is rumored that
it will be located on South Beach.
1t is stated that boat house and
large surf boat will be located we'll
inside the jettys.
The people Of Toledo have been
putting in some extra good worl;
on the road from Mackay's point to
the Fall creek road during the past
few days. Last Friday and Satur-
day there were good sized gangs at
work, and Tuesday there were ff-
teen at work. The ladies also take
great interests in the work and
some Of them go over each day and
make the men hot coffee for dinner
The road is now cleared and graded
as far as the rock quarry. There
is a bridge to be put i'll and then
the road will be entirely open and
ready for the grade on the upper
end.
The republicans seem to have
made a peculiarly unfortunate and
unfit nomination for the Office oi
prosecuting attorney for this district
to succeed Seymour Condor. Geo.
NJ, Brown, the nominee, is said by
many exchanges 10 be a dissolute,
worthless fellow, and even serious
crime has been charged against
him. Many prominent republican:
of both Lincoln and Benton counties
openly declare that they will III nc
manner support him, They fee
ireer in saying this from the fact
that his nomination came from the
most bareiaced trading and dicker
ing any convention ever knew
Fortunately the democratic nomine(
Geo. Doris, is a young man o
both integrity and ability. Th,
Office being q non-political one to ;
large extent, il is safe to predic
the defeat of Brown by q rousins
majority.
