The King OF Dahomey, wishing to
communicate with his father, who
had the excellent fortune to be dead,
cut off the head Of his mother so that
she could act as messenger. AS an
instance of fllial devotion the case is
complex and further confused by the
circumstance that while the heads
man was at work the King looked on
calmly smoking pipe. The King is
clearly entitled to some recognition.
He deserves at least the privilege of
being sent forthwith to join his la
mented parents, bearing his own
head under his arm.

Alsea Bay Notes.

Still more rain and early spring
omen's about as scarce as at this
time last year From the old set
tier point of view, Oregon winter
weather gets worse annually. Can't
we load this moisture onto the
back Of some political party, but
which, It's too heavy and frequent
for the new party to pack,
Messrs. w. II, Harrison & Son
are running the saw mill this week
and watchful eyes are frequently
scanning the ocean horizon for a
first glimpse of the San Francisco
steamer, due this week.
Messrs. Doty, Wakefield, Guynn
and Axtell returned from the pop
ulist convention last Sunday.
They speak very fcelingly of their
cordial reception and treatment by
the people of Toledo.
Since our school closed and the
outside scholars returned to their
homes Waldport has assumed the
aspect of Goldsmith's deserted vii
lage, only more so, To some eyes
II looks as though with our elegant
new school house and the outside
support the district receives from
scholars, as well as the presumed
increase i'll state grant, that we
might manage to afford more than
n three months school annually
more especially, when by the exer-
tionS of few an entertainment re-
alizing more than thirty dollars can
so easily be gotten up. But ex-
penses are heavy; wood and coal
oil serious items,
II is said that the mail route be.
Newport and Tidewater, so long
satisfactorily carried by Mr., Hol-
gate, is TO pass from his hands on
the Ist of next July, and Mr., How
ell, of the Waldport house, is to
make his debut to the public in the
capacity of route contractor be-
tween the above points.
News is hard to dig up this week
and fear Rex" will secure the

Jerry Banks, successful young

was in town yesterday filing on his

A decision was rendered by the
supreme court at Salem Tuesday
in the case Of Newton Williams VS..
The Toledo Coal Company. This
was suit to foreclose a miners
lien upon the property OF The To
ledo Coal Company, for wages for
work performed. The case was
decided in the lower court adverse
ly TO Williams, who then appealed
it TO the supreme court. The latter
court affirmed the opinion Of the
lower court and so Williams lien
stands for Daught.

able that this force will be kept ur

We see by the last weeks LEAD
Err and by the Salem Journal, the
name Of NJ. w. Simpson for county
judge, 1t meets with approval by
all in this part, regardless of party,
We know of no better man for the
position. Marsh is one of the
pioneers OF this bay; we'll known
by all to be a man of good Judge
ment, one that will work for the
best interests Of Lincoln county.
He has never been an office seeker
and would not be managed by any
ring rule or allow anything but
justice to all. He is we'll posted
aud well acquainted with all parts
of the new county and the people,
We have never found the man to
say one word against him in any
manner, and believe as the Journal
says, "He will catch votes as fast
as he can fish. We do not be-
iieve in any party running the
affairs of the county, We propose
to vote for the man not the party,
We want the man who will best
serve the interests of the people,
and believe NJ. W. Simpson to be
the man for the county Judge.
Divide the offices up with the best
men.

Dyking Tide Lands.

1nC uCSOtidllOitS iOI q SledD!
dredger by Robert Campbell, are
progressing favorably, and it is to
be sincerely hoped that they will be
successful. The plan upon which
Mr.. Campbell proposes to work is
dyke lands Oil the shares, the size
size Of the shares depending upon
the location Of the land and The
amount Of dyke required. This
plan ought to enable anyone who
has a piece Of tide land to get it
dyked. The profits and benefits to
be derived by dyking theSe lands
arc too many and various to be
enumerated here, and too well
known 10 need recounting. Lands
that are overhowed by every high
tide, while being the richest and
most most valuable in soils Of any
lands, are practically worthless for
any purpose. A few tons of tide
hay is the entire product. With
the land properly dyked the same
land will produce from two to four
tons Of good hay to the acre, or
produce all abundant Yield Of any
other crop to which the climate is
adapted. The land then becomes
productive, valuable and saleable,
so that the owner will receive an
income from it or dispose Of it if he
wishes, at a greatly enhanced val
ue, Dykes made by dredge are
much better and have numerous
advantages over handmade dykes.
In the first place no land is lost by
deep bitches OH each side of the
dyke. The dyke is placed closer to
the bank and the dirt for the dyke
is taken from the bottom of the.
slough or river, thus not only max
ing a dyke but also makes a good
clear boat channel. The dyke is
nicely rounded, and can be sown to
grass, and thus none of the land
will be wasted. The work is more
rapidly done and the owner can get
the use of his land that much SOON
er. Land that is properly dyked
will clear from $50 to $40 per acre
annually in hay crop alone, and
do fully as well when well cultiva-
ted with other crops.
1t is proposed to take contracts
on land for dyking, the tenor of
which are such that if Mr.. Camp
bell, or his assigns, erect a good
dyke of the proper Dimensions, etc. ,
that upon completion thereof they
are to receive deed to portion
of the land. Several parties have
already signed these contracts and
if enough of them are signed to JUS
tify the outlay the machine will be
purchased. In case the dyking is
not completed according to the
contract the contract then becomes
void, 1t is hoped that all parties
who own tide lands on the Bay will
investigate the plan, by calling on
addressing Mr.. Campbell, at this
place, and sign contracts if they see
fit. We believe that If the proper
interest Is displayed by land own
ers, who now are absolutely reap
ing no benefits from their lands,
the dredger will be here and in
operation before the season Is over.
Talk it up and help the enterprise
along, 1t will make a garden spot
of our country,
