NOrtOns Notes.

The glorious Fourth has come
and gone.
The program at the picnic was
not as fine as it should have been if
more time had been taken in pre-
pairing. Most ofthem who attended
enjoyed the day. There was little
dancing on the picnic grounds, but
the dance in the evening at H. S.
Porter's was very enjoyable. The
Nortons teacher spent the day on
Rock creek. She reports that the
picnic there was quiet, but every
one enjoyed the day. B. J. Har-
rington, the merchant, treated every
one to candy and peanuts. A young
son had come to his home few
days previous.
There was a wedding at Nortons
June 80, and our most popular
young lady, Miss Marie Huntington,
will no longer handle the Nortons
postoffice. Mr.. Will Davis Of
Beaverton, is the lucky man. He
will take his wife to his home this
week. Mr.. Dick Huntington,
brother of the bride, came to Nor
tons to attend the wedding. Mr..
Harvey Huntington, cousin, is ur
from Newport.
Andrew Porter and wife from the
upper Siletz spent Saturday and
Sunday at H. S. Porters'. Mr.
Townsend and family from Kings
Valley were present also, and Mrs
Porter returned with them for &
visit Of some length.
Mrs. Eddy, the mother of Mrs
H. S. Porter, will spend week Of
two at Nortons.

Adverting to the senatorial fight
now on in Oregon, the Wasco News
refectively says: 1T is very pos
sible that a senatorial deadlock will
deprive Oregon of any legislation
next year. The republicans will
have about 20 members, and the
majority of the remaining 80 will
be populist. The republican
strength will be about equally di-
vided, and unless they can get
together it will be impossible to
elect. Verify, it begins to look as
though the halls of the senate will
be depopulated through inability of
legislatures to elect. 1t, however,
will have the good effect of hasten
ing the time when senators will be
elected by the.people." !"

Two Needful Things.

There are two things that stand
very greatly in the way of the
progress and development of large
part of Lincoln county. These are
two of the conditions which exist
in the matter of the entry and occu-
patton of public land in what used
to be the Siletz reservation. By an
act OF congress the unallotted lands
were made subject to one class of
entry, namely, homestead entry,
and that class of entry must pay
$3.50 per acre for the land, fifty
cents of which must be paid at time
Of entry, besides making three
years residence thereon. This
should be changed to the ordinary
homestead entry with the five year
residence provision. In going into
new and wild country there ara
hardships enough to encounter with
out being compelled to pay irr the
land besides. This matter OF tie
cash payment has retarded settle
ment very greatly in that pc, ton
the country, and it should |
abolished. There is 10 sense i,
compelling settlers there to n.y
that amount of money for THEN
lands when the settlers cu govern
ment land just off Of the reserve
pays nothing.
The next condition that should
be changed is to allow land to be
taken there under the timber act.
There are large bodies of very
valuable timber on the Siletz, and
the land is of no value at the
present time for anything but the
timber upon it. This land held
under the homestead law will be
many years in setting up, and will
be of no profit to the country. If
this timber land could be taken
under the timber act the govern
ment would be the gamer by
dollar per acre, and it would also
make source of great wealth to
the country. The lumber industry
will develop rapidly, and prosperous
communities would soon spring up
where there is now nothing but the
virgin forest.
Change these two conditions in
that part of our county and the
result would astonish the most
sanguine of our people. If our
people can get our representatives
in congress to take these matters up
and secure these changes the result
will be of great benefit to our
county.

Bicycles are the talk, the vogue, and alb
solutely the correct thing, not only now,
but to stay. Apropos of which, We would
say that the Bon Marche are howing and
selling a lot OF ladies' bicycle suits, IN
all-woOl cloth, duck, plaids and checks;
dainty things, which they offer as low as
Sc per suit, and no extra charge for suits
made to measure. or course, you can buy
them as high as $1s; material changing
the price. The Bon Marche have taken
quite an interest in the bicycle business,
and, of course, ladies desiring bicycle
suits should see to it that the people from
whom they buy know what they want,
and give them ut moderate prices.
The Bon Marche prOprietors having en-.
