7. Jay Buford came over last
Saturday from the state reform
school where he holds a position,
to exercise his suffrage in this
county. Mr.. Buford was pleasantly
greeted by his hosts of friends in
this county.
One of the most singular things
that occur at an election is the num-
Der of defective ballots cast. 1t
would seem that the marking of a
ballot under the present law in Ore
gon, especially in the election of last
Tuesday, would be so simple and
plain that a mistake would be we'll
nigh impossible. And yet from the
various precincts come the usual
number of defective ballots. Some
of the defects are so peculiar that il
must have taxed the ingenuity Of
the voter to have committed them.

L. O'BRIEN, Yaquina.
Hon. Geo. H. Brownell, of Ore
gon City, and Hon. M. E.. Pogue,
of Salem, closed the campaign in
this county for the republicans at
the court house last Saturday night.
The court house had been beauti-
fully decorated for the occasion by
the ladies of the Mckinley club.
Both speakers made interesting adj
dresses, that of Mr.. Brownell being
quite an eloquent effort. Senator
Brownell is the most eloquent speak
er that has appeared in this county
during the campaign just closed.
Another entertaining feature
was the music furnished by the
Mckinley glee club.
A deal of considerable Importance
was made in this place last week,
by which the sawmill property at
this place has changed hands, and
Toledo will lose one of her best citi-
zens. A. o. Krogstad traded the
sawmill property and the lot on
which the spring is located that fur
nishes water to the mill, to Moses
Gregson for a stocked farm near
Philomath. The trade is completed
but the papers r not yet made out.
Mr.. Krogstad will move out and
take possession of his new farm in
the course of a couple of weeks and
Mr.. Gregson will, at that time also
take possession of the mill property.
Mr.. Gregson resided on the Bay
several years ago, and was a con-
tractor and builder. He is an en-
ergetic and enterprising business
man, and will no doubt make a sue
cess of the mill business. While
we regret losing Nh. Krogstad from
our business community, of which
he is a valued member, we extend
to Mr.. Gregson and family a hearty
welcome to our midst.
More improvements have been
made in the little city of Toledo
this year than even many of our
citizens are aware of, unless they
make a trip around through the
town and note what has been done.
In the line of new buildings, there
have been three completed and the
fourth one is in course of erection.
The latter, Mr.. Sturdevant's, is
going 10 be one of the handsomest,
as we'll as IL of the most comfort
able ones on the Bay. A new
church building is also in course of
construction. OF course these do
not constitute much of a building
boom, but when the extremely
hard times is taken into consider

G.. F. Luckey was a Little ELI
visitor in Toledo today.
Gowell is always ''in it" If
prices, quality and quantity.
]. H. Yantis brought down the
returns from the Nashville precinct
last night.
w. W. January, of Big Elk
brought down the election returns
from that precinct.
The dance given at the hotel last
Tuesday night was a grand success
in every particular.
V. A. Vidito, of the Upper Alsea
valley, brought up the returns from.
the Tidewater precinct.
S. A. Miller came up from the
cannery where he has been engaged
during the fishing season.
F. A. Thompson, a gentleman
from the east, is in the city looking
up the prices of real estate in this
vicinity.
Business is business" and bust
ness is what Gowell wants-hence
his system. Everything low for
spo, cash or its equivalent.
DR.. and Mrs. Meriwether, Mr..
and Mrs. J. ]. Gather, Miss Ruth
Gather and Mr.. Sam Center came
over from Siletz Tuesday to attend
the dance at the Blake House, and
to hear the election returns.
1t matters not what the result of
the presidential election may be,
Gowell will increase the volume of
his business by selling at the low
est possible prices.
A good many of our neighbors
from the country and surrounding
towns dropped in Tuesday night
and Wednesday to hear the election
returns.
M. E. Peairs left this morning for
Astoria, where he goes to accept a
business position. He did not know
when he left whether it wonld be a
permanent change or not, and hence
his family will remain at this place
for a time.
We hasten 10 congratulate Col.
Chas. Ruhl, city marshal, and ex-
oHicio street commissioner, upon
the good fortune which has befallen
him in the way of a neat little
legacy from Pennsylvania. Just
how much Col. Ruhl will receive
from this source is not known. but
will probably amount to somewhere
in the thousands. The legacy
comes from the estate Of an aun,
who recently died.
An indication Of the rapid growth
of the Siletz is indicated BY the
vote of the election Tuesday, as
compared with the vote ofthe Alsea
country. In Lower Alsea, Yahats,
Tidewater and Lobster precincts
there were TT votes cast. In the
three precincts OH the Siletz, Siletz
Ross and Salmon River there were
aI4 votes polled. Of these abou.
100 are Indians, leaving about III
white votes on the Alsea, or a diff
ference of only g i'll white votes
This shows the rapid development
of that part of the county.
Chas. Reed, Of Salmon River
brought up the returns from tina
precinct arriving to day. Mr.. Reec
says that considerable dissatisfactio,
at the county court in his part o
the county, owing to the way the,
have been treated in the matter O
roads. They have been trying al
summer to get a road viewed GU

at the county court in his part of
the county, owing to the way they
have been treated in the matter of
roads. They have been trying all
summer to get a road viewed out
to the lower canoe landing on the
Siletz aud also to have a road
viewed out from the beach up Sal
mon river to the Polk county line
Mr.. Reed informs us that they do
not ask the county to do ANYTHING
on either road, except to legally To-
cate the same, so that what work
and material is placed upon the
roads will not be lost to the man
that put them there. Mr.. Reed
also says that the people are get
ting quite impatient to have the
tail viewed out by Toledo parties
last summer from the head of Depot
to the head of tide on the Sile,z
completed so that a horse can be
got over it. This should be done.

A Dog and a Burglar,

About 2 o'clock yesterday morning
Mrs. Wilson, who resides in the north
era part Of town, heard a struggle he
tween the house dog and a man. She
rose hastily and going to the kitchen
found the dog had a nan by the leg
who was eudeavoriug to escape. He
beat the dog over the head and 60:
out OF the door on the run. The dog
followed him up the street barking a.,
his heels for a couple of blocks
He had made an entrance by fore
ing off the lock on the kitchen door,
but owing to the watchfulness of the
dog did not succeed in realizing any
thing on his venture.

Prize Ring Jobbery.

The inside Of the big fight is now
laid bear to the public ia the Courts
Billy Smith and George Allen, Shar-
keys trainers, have been on the stand
and testified thai the Fitzsimmons-
Sharkey fight was a fake; that carp
was selected as referee and 'fxed'
for $4,000, and that the discol0rations
on Sharkey's groin were made after
the fight by hypodermic injections.
Billy Smith did the work and he and
h other trainers went on the stand
and told the truth because Sharkey
owed them money be would not pay.
This testimony if unrefuted, should
give Fitzfimmons the $4,000 and
land the res Of the gang in jail.

A Wonderful Metal.

From time to time Nevada shows no
with luminous shrubs, travelling
stones, petritied coral, prehistoric men
and animals, mineral soar and other
wonderful products, and now she is
credited with being a necessity TO the
airship, as the OroviIle Register saws :
Ii Will be remembered that some
years ago a mar discovered a won
delfui metal in Pine Nut, Nevada.
Ills peculiar metal WAS contained in
clay Il the man accideAtly dis
covered it by using some clay for a
bank to his stove. Some hours after
building a fire in the stove he found
that the back had Disappeared and in
place OF it was a clear white metal
with scarcely any weight to it.
Now The mar who discovered and
used n a metal as in Oroville yes
teTday in fact he has been here a
number Of days. He does not wish
his name published, but We met and
talked with him for fifteen or twenty
minutes. We DO not know of course
whether he has anything to do with
this mysterious airship or not, but if
there was any Truth in the report of
the wonderful metal discovery it is
possible that he has kept the secret
and used the new metal in construct
ing this wonderful floating ship.

sam" a2-nts have already organized
branches of he JuLt. in Ohio, Indi-

AT Chicago.
One Of the objects of the Junta is to
encourage Influence for the movement
/ looking TO the recognition of the
Cuban revolutionists by this Govern
meut. ThrrA ia no international law

Of the minor ideas of the bodies, as

serVlceable assistance to the revolu-
tiOnlSto, Ii Promoters Of the Junta
are operating with a p]recautiun that
surrounds their movements with COM
paraiiro protection against possible
Interference on the part Of the Fed
eral authorities. The organizers Of
the Junta for Missouri are said TO be
Senior Co!teZ Dclasino and Senior Jose
PetoreZ, both native Cnbans. These
gentlemen have made frequent trips
to all the large cities 10 this s. ate.
The branches in this city, Kansaa City
and st. ice are the largest in the
State, but none Of these are Cd a foot
ing of strength that warrants public
action. Any Cuban resident or Amer
lean who will donate something to the
aus of liberty may be enrolled as a
member. The total membership in
st. Louis is said to be about 1900 and
in the State about 1900.

FEE.
He Wants ~25,OOO for Some
Litigation.

Yesterday the case Of the Bullion
Bank VS.. the the Union Mill q Mir
ing Company for S25, 600 came up in
the U. S. Court. w. E. F. Deal rep
resented the Union Mill & Mining
Co, and W. d. Torreyson appeared
for the Bank,
The history of the case shows that
in 1899 Coffin was employed to bring
suit agaiut the ranchers Of Carson
Valley in behalf of the Union Mill &
Mining Co. He claims that 10 ag-
reement was made relative to the fee.
A few months ago, when the change
came in the Bullion Sank. the new
management legal to call in all the
loans.
Coffin owed the Bank something
over $13, 600 and they demanded OF
him that he either pay the indebted
ness Or furnish proper security. He
turned over to the bank his 1nyo
Canal stock and his interest in the fee
he claimed was due him from the
Union Mill and Mining Company.
Coffin vas on the stand nearly all
the afternoon, and was put on the
gridiron by Deal regarding the fee.
Coffin had a hazy recollection in con-
nectiOn with the matter and according
20 his testimony he had studiously
avoided making any agreement re-
lative to the fee when the parties who
engaged him pressed him upon the
subject.
He related a scene between himself
aud H. NJ. Yerington in which the
latter pressed him to say how much
ne would charge, and how he had
skillfully avoided mentioning any
specified sum. He denied that he had
told Yerington il the presence of
Major Ford that he would take the
ase for 81 500.
The case will be resumed today.

DEATH OF GENERAL BEATTY
He Expires an noon Yesterday at
the Arlington House.

Exactly at Don yesterday Attorney
General Beatty breathed hie last at
the Arlington House,
His death WAS q lite unexpected "a
a few DAYS before he was up and
a"out his rooni, seemingly on the
high road OF recovery and was tx
pected to get out in a few days.
About a quarter Of twelve O'clock
the editor Of the APPEAL called on him
and found him ia great pain, which
almost sent him into couvuls ions. Mr.
klrcher of the Arlington was as
slstlpg him TO sit up an d the two
proped him with pillows. He pressed
his hand t. his side and exclaimed
several times hat he was suffering
terrible pain. He was then taken
with a tit Of gaspiD2 and caughing as
il troubled with phlem in a. throat.
The writer hurried to he drI store
to get some N decline and o. MS way
back spoke to DR.. Lee whom he met
on the street. TIE two then hurried
to the sic mans and he had
just settled back on his pillow and
brea'hed his last when they reached
him.
The news # his demise spread rap
idly over he city and was a great
shock TO the community.
Many who had called on him the
6a y hnfnra Ir.ra coaroajx- ahta tn ~
alize that he had passed away. While
Mr.. Beatty Was taken down with what
threatened to be an attack Of pneu-
moni4, it ls quite probable hat he
really passed away from an attack Of
n Of the terrible spasms to which
OF late years he h IS been more or less
subject.
Robert Muir Beatty was a native of
Illinois and would have been AZ years
of age on the fourth of next March.
He came to the Coast in 1862 aud to
Nevada in 1868. He was regarded as
a much older man, as his hair was
snow white.
He studied law in Virginia CITY
and Vas admitted to he bar at Ham
lltOn, White Pine county. in 1871. He
moved to Eureka county in 1873 and
was elected District Attorney 10 1887,

NJ. Jr., is a Captain of the Salvation
Army.
he was a member and Past Grand
Chancellor Of the knights of Pythias
which order has taken charge of his
remains until instructions come from
his relatives.
1t is likely that the funeral will take
place here under the auspices of the
X. Of p. and with such State honors
as may be considered appropriate.
The appointing OF a successor to fill
the unexpired term deyolyes upon
Governor Sadler.
The flag on the capitol was placed

reached the buildiDg.
Mr.. Beatty leaves a large circle of
warm friends in Carson and through
out the State. He a a man of
strong personal characteristics, an
able lawyer and d man Of fine men
tally. He vas a warm, true friend
and an uncompromising enemy who
never deviated from the path Of duty
when he thought he was right.
