Editor LEADER will come
again, as promised to post you on
the happenings in this community.
1t seems that the while sheep and
cattle buyers are securing the coun-
try to rid us of our surplus stock,
they are also trying to rid the COM
munity of all the surplus bitters,
which would be all right if
they would ship it out of the COUP
try the same as they do the stock,
but in this particular instance thev
seem to prefer the doctrine of home
consumption.
One day last week there was a
performance at Mr.. Young's store
that eclipsed anything of the kind
known 10 the oldest settler. The
proprietor went into a trance, light
ming struck the back door and shiv-
cred it to splinters. Meanwhile
pockets of the yellow stuff was dis
covered, not exactly gold. but hen
fruit. which is legal tender here
at this time.
The adherents of Thomas Paine

By sheer oversight in writing up
the account of the ministral show
in our last issue we neglected to
give Rosebrook S orchestra mention.
This neglect was not because the
music was not frst-class, or because
we did not appreciate it. In fact
the music was excellent in every re-
spect, and to make it more appre-
ciated by us the orchestra parts
were all composed by
Prof. Rosebrooks. The orchestra
was composed of six pieces, Prof.
Rosebrook and wife and two boys,
and w. P. Ford and Chas. Hyde.
We can only apologize for our neg
lect to mention this excellant feat
ure of the entertainment, and assure
the orchestra, collectively and indi-
vidually, that their music was high
ly appreciated by the audience.
Indian Agent Buford, of Siletz,
has returned from Nehalem in
Tillamook county, where he went
in pursuance OF an order
from the Indian department, to
make payment of some money
due certain Indians there. 1t seems
that away back in the Cos the Ne
halem Indians ceded large amount
of land along the coast between the
Tillamook and Columbia rivers to
the United States for a cash consid-
Grafton. A part of this money has
never yet been paid, and it is to
distribute this cash that Mr.. Bu-
ford goes there for. Meanwhile
the Nehalem Indians have dwindled
down until there are only abou,
fourteen families of them left. In
addition to making the payment o.
the money Mr.. Buford had to trace
the lineage of the several claimants
to the end that no imposters be
paid. This was no small Job,
The amount of money to be paid is
about $I2, 900, but of this the at.
torneys who have been working or
the case will receive about $1,000,

There is sort of outraged feeling
existing in Lincoln county over the
outcome of the McMurray and Carl
son cases. In the first case the
prisoner is turned loose upon the
community, and is a sort of hero to
a certain class of thoughtless boys

not good. In the Carlson case
there is strong feeling that for
penitentlary bird that has just been
released for one crime from the pen
and commits two as bold burglaries
as Carlson did, that one year in the
penitentiary is a farce and travesty
upon the name of law and justice.
