ment III the matter of river and
harbor work. Nine months have
elapsed since an appropriation OF
81 100000 was made for the i'm
provement of Yaquina Bay, and as
yet there seems to have been
nothing done in the matter. Now
is the time to act.

build a new addition to Waldport
on his property across the slough.
He has laid the foundation OF two
large hotels to accommodate pleas

employed all the mechanics in this
vicinity, at s. per day. He has
contracted with Harrison Bros. for
the output of their saw mill for the

their lumber trade from San Fran

ton.

Yaquina Notes.
Sauce for the Goose,
Sauce for the Camden"


What is next, tell me quick! 1
would like to know. 1t seems an
impossibility for some of the va
quinaites to take a joke. Life with
them is a serious thing. The money
question worries them considerable.
They have my entire sympathy in
their hour of trouble. The parties
who had the most to say III regard
to those "Yaquina Notes" were
not mentioned Individually q will
not say collectively so if 1 did
joke a little it was no skin off their
"shins."
My friend is a trife mistaken
when he calls me a ''sport." 1
might be called anything but
SPORTY" in fact 1 am a gentleman,
and am living here solely for my
health. I believe in heaven after
death, am an American by birth
and education. So his statements
in regards to my being q heather
are a trife misleading, to say the
least. My eyes may be almond
shaped and nv face yellow, but it
takes more than that to constitute
a heather. Perhaps he meant a
"Hottentot' or "a Wild Man from
Borneo." 1 think the club had
better organize a little colony,
select those whom they deem fit
for members, buy a section of land
(before they agree to disagree put
a fence (barbed wire or air tight)
around it and keep out the meddlers
and busy bodies, and 1 forgo, to
say sports and heathens," as
their presence might cast a slur on
the "chosen few" If they keep
or they will want the earth with a
fence around it, but will they get
it? 1 guess init"
Well there is no Use fighting
over Joke, they said something
about my being narrow-minded, if
taking up that Josh" was not
narrow mindedness, l would like
to have the word explained. That
answer was a fair sample of it.
And talking about meddling
people, why bless your soul, l have
lots of company, so do not worry
about my welfare, as 1 shall not be
lonely. My consolation is,-there
are others.
Yes, my friend and worthy critic,
there are, undoubtedly, two sides
to every question. You gave the
sublime, the other or ''lop side"
and l gave the ridiculous, the true
or my side, and still you find fault,
but then there is many a true word
said i'll a joke, and it is the truth
that hurts.
The best of friends must part, so
l shall have to come to a halt. II
can almost hear those heart-broken
and weary friends groan, they think
50 much of me.
Ill have written anything, my
"spell-Oound readers" that has
offended YOU or hit the mark, lust
make out your wills and codicils,
bid your friends and acquaintance
adieu, and come ahead. l am
Johnny on the spot' when it
comes to pugi!ism, and if l don't

Multnomah county's vote was
1880. In 1892 it was 1868.
This shows a good gain of popula-
ton through four years of hard
times. The state OF Oregon in
1890 cast 7S,49I votes. Its vote
now is just about $4,000. Eight
years ago it was 6o,9I4, and twelve

Of all the novel telephone lines in
existence the one operated by the
citizens of Heppner caps the climax.
They have a city exchange compos-
ed of about rs phones. In putting
in this service it came convenient to
use a harbed wire that was on the
fence in connecting with the soda
factory, about a half mile above
town. To all appearances the
barbed wire transmitted the sound
as perfectly rs the copper wire, so
it was decidea to try a line to the
home of Jas. Hager, about three
miles trori town, to whose place
there was a barbed wire fence al
most the entire distance from Hep
pner. The result of this expert
ment was very satisfactory, it being.
said that one talking over this line
can be heard more distinctly than
over any line conneced with the
exchange.
This is a new idea and may
somewhat reduce the expense of
constructing telephone lines. Near
ly every ranch in the bunchgrass
counties Of Oregon could easily,
and at very small exp-nse, secure
connections, as the wire
.ence is the only fence in such To-
2alities. Milton Eagle.

FUNERAL OF REV. w. B. DOUB.

As the tolling of the bell Tuesday
evening reminded this entire people
without regard to creed of the great
affection that had come to the COM
munitv a sadness indescribable came
like a pail over all. Because, never
was man more sincerely and unlver-
sally loved and never was death more
deeply deplored than was that OF Rev.
w. b. Doub, of Main street Methodist
church. The esteem in which
he was held was fully attested by the
immense congregation present to pay
the last sad rites to his memory.
The services were conducted in Main
street church by DR.. E. A. Yates, Rev.
A. A. Pruden. DR.. ]. A. Cunninggim,
Rev. w. c. Norman and Rev. Jno. n.
Cole.
The pall-bearers were: Revs. Jno. n.
Cole, r. w. Bailey, N. T.. Coletrane, \.
A. Pruden, - Thompson, ana H.
Hibberd.
Tt was sad to be thus stricken down
in the very prime of life, taken from
wife, children and loved ones, but how
delightful to leave behind such an
aroma of sweet franRinscence as fol-
lows the memory of Rev. w. B. Donb.
His body sleeps peacefully in the city
cemetery, while his pure, gentle spirit
is baslling in the smiles of a loving
Saviour.

1t was a real pleasure yesterday
morning to see Justice NJ. A. Angler
on the throne at the Mayors court.
He is conducting the affairs of that
tribunal during the absence of the
Mayor. He looked so home-lille and all
who were to be tried wore such self
satisfied look There is nothing like
confidence and it was indeed crafty
ing to see with what child-like sim
plicity the poor unfortunate, who had
the night previous taken too much
''red-eye," stepped forth to hear his
doom. He knew that if Justice Angler
made a mistake it would be an error
of the head and not of the heart; that
he would not be punished to crafty
the spleen of somebody behind the
throne or to make capital for the man
who sat upon the throne, and there
fore he was happy.
There were only three cases, one
drunk, fined S.; one affray. costing the
two defendants, $2.45 each, and one
case of larceny in which the defendant
was required to give bond in the sum
of S25. and on failure was committed
to jail

VOTING For GOLD.

A Texas silver man asks the
Republic whether in voting for
Bryan and Watson he practical
ly would vote against Bryan.
In Texas-or in any other
state which the Populists can
not possibly carry-a vote for
Bryan and Watson is a vote for
Mckinley A voter casts his
ballot for a state electoral ticket.
If the Bryan electors get 40 per
cent of the votes, the Mckinley
and Hobart electors 46 per cent
and Bryan and Watson electors
9 per cent, Mckinley carries the
state and receives its full cleo
toral vote.
In the electoral college the
case is different. If Bryan and
Sewall electors, duly chosen in
the state, constitute 45 per cent,
Mckinley and Hobart electors
46 per cent, and Bryan and
Watson electors 9 per cent,
Bryan would be elected. Hence,
in state which the Populists
have a chance to carry a vote
for Bryan and Watson electors
may show up in the practical
result as a vote for Bryan.
As a condition and not a the
ory, a vote for Bryan and Wat
son-unless fusion arrange
ments have been made-will be
a vote for Mckinley. or against
Bryan, in every state.-St. Louis
Republic.
