When a farmer has toiled like a
slave for year, only to find that
his produce will not pay his ex-
penses Of living, it soothes his
feelings and makes him happy and
contented to be told that he is an
anarchist and a lunatic. Aud he is
particularly happy when he reflects
that the persons calling him an
anarchist are those who profit by
the laws that rob him-Rocky

The LEADER recognizes that in


county judge for Lincoln county
that it has no influence, and also,
it has no interest further than to
see good safe and conservative
man appointed. The appointment
will be made by republican gov
ernor, and it will undoubtedly be a
republican. So it is a republican
fight, and as such, the LEADER is
not in it.
But there is one argument being
used by faction that reflects upon
the town of Toledo, and in that we
do have some interest, and will try
and correct the statement. 1t is
asserted by the friends of one of the
aspirants that the Toledo ring"
as they call it, is trying to "hog"
all of the county offices. This state
ment will not bear the search-light
of truth. Let us see: Since Lin
coin county has been organized the
officers have been as follows: Ap-
pointed by Gov. Pennoyer: G. A.
Landis, sheriff, and Rev. Chas.
Booth, superintendent, Newport;
B. F. Jones. clerk, and H. Denlin-
ger, treasurer, Toledo; D. P. Blue,
judge, 7. E. Parker, assessor, and
Thos. Russell, coroner, Yaquina;
]. o. Stearns, commissioner, and
Josiah Gideon, surveyor, Waldporr:
and M. l.. Trapp, commissioner,
Chitwood. Under these appoint
ments Toledo had clerk and treas
urer; Newport had sheriff and sup
erintendent; Waldport had survey
or and one commissioner; YaQuina
had judge, assessor and coroner,
aud the whole east end Of the cour-
ty above Toledo had one commi--
sioner.
Under the election two years ago
the offices were distributed as fol-
lows: ]. D. DAILY, representative, G..
A. LandiS, sheriff, and G. H. Will
liams, commissioner, Newport; B.
F. Jones, clerk, and Geo. Bethers,
superintendent, Toledo; 7. E. Par
ker, assessor, Yaquina; J. L. Hyde,
treasurer, Little Elk; Josiah Gideon,
surveyor, Waldport. S. V. Burt,
judge, and DR.. Carter, corouer, Elk
City; and J. ]. Bristow, commits
sioner, Nashville. Since that time
the elected assessor died and Silas
Howell was appointed and is now
filling the unexpired term. Thus
we see that Toledo had the clerk
and the school superintendent,
Newport the sheriff, representative
and commissioner, Yaquina the as
SCISSOR, Elk City the judge and cor
oner, Little Elk the surveyor, Nash
vile commissioner. and Waldport
the surveyor, ard for half of the
term the assessor.
Last June the Offices were dis
tributed by the people as follows:
Toledo, B. F. lIones, clerk; New
port, S. G. Irwin, superintendent
and G. A. Lands, sheriff; Siletz,
Hurley Lutz, assessor; Salmon Riv-
er, Z M. Derrick, surveyor; Little
Elk, ]. l.. Hyde, treasurer; Beaver
creek, Il. N. Coombs, coroner;
Nashville, f. A. Goodwin, commits
sioner. AS it now stands Toledo
has but one county officer and one
only, and has h ad but three since
the organization of the county.
We do not believe that TO a fair
minded man that there is sufficient
evidence in the lists given above to
justify the charge that Toledo is
trying to hog" all the Offices.
. We honestly believe that the par
ties who sci up that cry would have
more influence with Gov. Lord by
not trying to deceive him, as the
Governor has no doubt investigated

Convict Confesses q Crime for Which He
)! IL Sentenced to Death
Albany, N. Y, Jan. 6.-The confession
of John McGough to the crime for
which Bartholomew Shea was to be
in Dannemora prison
caused Gov. Morton to grant Shea a
respite for four weeks, during which
time counsel can take proper means
to bring the matter before the courts
for a new trial. This was the climax
of one of the most dramatic criminal
and sensational incidents in the states
history, and was made public Sunday
just 4s hours prior to the time set
for the execution upon Shea of the
death sentence.
1.-THE crimes occurred March 6. 1894. Shea
and McGough headed q crowd Of reporters
who had worked almost every polling place
In Troy. They had been told not to work
their game in the ward. in which the Ross
brothers, William and Robert, were the
head of the republican party. but an
that they would. In anticipation
Of their visit the ROSES, John Boland and
several other citizens had armed them
selves with clubs and some with pistols
loaded with blank cartridges. 1t was s.ort-
ly after that the melee occurred, and. while
20 or more shots were fired. the two Ross
trate that somebody ran up and shot him
In the head. This crimc was finally laid
to Shea's door. and he was sentenced to
death, while Meg Cough was sent to prison
for - years for his assault upon William

Mrs. Lee and Miss Hubbard, of

Besides these unfortunate people
there were in the house at the time
Annie Bell, q colored servant, and four
other children of the Hubbard. family,
viz: Webster, Walter, John and Hinton,
whose ages ranged from eight to II
years. They all escaped by jumping
from a second-story window. Annie
BELL suffered fracture of one ankle,
and Walter Hubbard sprained one of his
ankles. The others are not injured.
The house is q large modern frame, two
stories and attic in height, and was
heated with natural gas, by means of a
furnace. The fire probably resulted
from an explosion of natural gas.

CUBA MAY YET BE FREE.

Tho Outlook.

Troops Defeated by Insurgents at Colon
The Outlook.
Havana, Jan. CA decisive battle
took place near Colon, about 80 miles
from Havana, in which the Spanish
were badly routed and suffered heavy
loss. and the insurgents gained the po-
sition which will probably enable them
to take Havana ut the next step. The
insurgents also captured the entire
Spanish artillery. Gen. Oliver was
killed and Campos' son seriously
wounded. The banishment of corre-
spondents from the front and the rigid
censorship of all press dispatches pre-
cludes the possibility of learning details
of the battle as yet.
Unless all indications are misleading,
the end of the Cuban lnsurrection is
at hand, and the result, 1t would seem,
must be in favor of the insurgents,
whose armies, under Maxine Gomez,
Antonio Maceo and Quintin Bendera,
are nearing this city from three differ
emit directions. The above facts, so
frequently denied in official circles dur
ing the past two weeks, are now gener-
dl1y dAAALICOS SSS4A ~ OAAA>A0A VA ~ -
As the advance bodies of the Cubans
were at Tapasto, is milss from Guiana
5aco, practically suburb of this city,
Friday night, it is by no means i'm
probable that the report that the Cuban
scouts have been sighted from the line
defending Havana is correct.
In effect, the whole island of Cuba,
outside of the city of Havana, is now
in the hands of the insurgents. They
ha not apnihilated the Spanish forces,
nor have they routed the whole army in
any single pitched. battle. Yet the situ-
alton is completely in their hands, and
so completely have they outgeneraled
the Spanish that, to all appearances,
Martinez de Campos' army might as
well be in Spain for any check it puts
upon the movements to and fro of Max
imo Gomez army. The latter's prog
ress has been accompanied with con-
tinual aceessions to his forces by volun-
teers, and he has captured enough
horses, rifles and artillery to add i'm
mensely to the effective strength Of
his men.

JAMESON'S DEFEAT.

His Command Captured After Loss OF
24O Killed and Wounded.
London, Jan. Gin response to an
inquiry from the colonial Office Sir
Walter Hely-Hutchinson, governor of
Natal, has sent dispatch confirming
the main facts CT DR.. Jameson's de-
feat. He adds that the Beers who op-
posed DR.. Jameson's force numbered
about 1900. They occupied strong
position. The governor also sends ex-
tracts from newspaper kilograms,
which are confused and contradictory
The main points deductible from these
dispatches are that DR.. Jameson ar.
rived near Krugersdorp. on December
81 and attacked the Beers on the day
following. He was repulsed and then
tried to move by 'Randfontein to Roode-
port, butwas stoppedat Doorkop.H Heavy
lighting took place on the afternoon OF
January @. at which time the Transvaal
state artillery arrived DR.. Jameson's
force was hopelessly outnumbered and
was almost exhausted, having been
without food for three days. The
horses, too, were helplessly jaded. DR..
Jameson yielded after sustaining loss
which, if the original force was 800
men, amounted to- 240 killed and
wounded.
In reply to 4 cable dispatch to Presi-
dent Kruger relative to the report that
Jameson and his fellow-prisoners are
to be shot, Joseph Chamberlain has
received from the president an assur-
ance that he has not ordered 1.-THE free
hooters who are prisoners" to be shot,
but that they will be tried 'strictly in
accordance with the traditions of the
republic and in sharp contrast to the
ruheard- of acts of these freeboo:ers."

Used q Clothes line.

John Holl, IS years of age, took his
life by hanging. He had been board
ing with q family at 2237 Twenty-one-
and-a-half avenue south for some time
past, and shortly after $ o'clock one
morning cut'of d piece OF rope from
the clothes line in the yard, and going
to q vacant store at 1917 Minnehaha
avenue hanged himself from the cell
ing.
Failing to respond to call to arise
from a member of the family, his room
was opened and found empty. The
cutting of the clothes line was noticed,
and becoming fearful for the safety of
the man, the police were notified. The
latter found Holl suspended in the
store, dead. Dependency is assigned
as the cause for the deed. Deceased
spent the summer in the harvest fields
of Dakota and arrived in Minneapolis
several weeks ago with over 500 In
cash. He proceeded to enjoy himself,
and want followed. His inability to
obtain work rendered him desperate.
Coroner Kistler ordered the removal OF
the body to the county morgue, where
q postmortem was held.

MADE FROM wAlRus ruska.

Many False Teeth Come from the Mon.
archs of tho Arctic Rosions. g.
sWhere do false teeth como from?''
said q well-known bono importer,
echoing n question that a Philadelphia
Times man had put to him. "Wouldn't
yoM like to know? Most people, I Inn
agine, think that all false teeth arc
made from ivory. That is quite mis-
taken idea, a. tho majority of false
teeth are now made from anything but
ivory. We import large quantities OF
walrus' tusks for no other purpose than
that they may be made into false teeth.
You 60 into some big dental establish
ment where teeth are made and you will
doubtless find the remains of walrus'
tusks lying around, and, indeed, a high
~ polished tooth made from q walrus
tusk is just as handsome, although not
80 lasting, as an ivory one.
"A dentist once came to me for an ele-
plants tusk, from which good set of
permanent teeth might be made for .
wealthy client of his. He was to spare
no expense. Hound him tusk, which,
being an especially good one, I sold for
$3.50 pound, the usual price being
from $3.50 to $3.50 per pound. I after
ward learned that the dentist made $500
out of that set of teeth.
"Of course, it would be impossible for
dentists to sell teeth SO cheaply as they
do now if the teeth were all made from
elephants tusks. AZ q matter of fact,
80 many people are now wearing false
teeth that doubt if the ivory suitable
for this purpose would ever be found.
l am told a good many false teeth arc
being made. from vegetable ivory, ivor-
Inc, etc. If so, the price Of teeth must
naturally go down, and in time the
toothless one will probably be able to
replenish his mouth for an absurdly low
sum. A set Of teeth for $685." con-
cluded the dealer, laughing, would
create boom in false teeth"

The water war in Duluth is still at
