Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1898-09-23
EDITORIAL.
GOOD BYE AGAIN.

The type in the forms of last
weeks LEADER was not yet cool
when w. L. Davis concluded that
he wanted to again take up the
newspaper work on Yaquina Bay,
and as he has parted with some of
his "honest money" l climbed right
down and out, feeling assured that
he could and would serve the inter
ests of "our dear people" and give
us an up-to-date journal. 1 find
the honors of a city alderman about
all can we'll main tain, at present.
Mr.. Davis will now take hold of the
educational advancement, and l be-
speak for him all the success his
ability and push so we'll deserve.
Thanks, kind friends; thanks.
c. L. GOWELL.
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1898-09-23

Some of our people have doubted
that any one would bid on the con-
tract to improve Yaquina bar for
the reason that no appropriation
was made by our last congress, but
from all appearances bidders will be
plentiful when the proper time
comes. Several men have already
looked over the field for the pur-
pose of gaining knowledge of ex-
isting conditions that would allow
them to bid knowingly. The lack
of an appropriation has never re-
tarded this work. The trouble has
been to pursuade Secretary Alger
to give the word "Go" Now that
the word has been said, the con-
tractors will be numerous because
the harvest will be one of three or
five years duration. We have al
ways told you the COW would eat
he grindstone.
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1898-09-23

The entire Yankee nation is thor
oughly aroused by the outrages
perpetrated upon the "boys i'll blue"
by the negligence of Secretary AL
ger and his subordinates. If one
half of these reports are authentic
the great and noble Alger should
be severely punished. Of course
many excuses can be found for him
because there are many good reas-
ons why so gigantic work should
not be placed in perfect working
order in so short time as the exc
ginces of the case required. But no
excuses will suffice the fond mother
whose boy left home in the first full
flush of manhood, and who now lies
buried alone meath Southern lilies
because of the negligence and arbi-
.trary rules of Secretary Alger. The
committee of inquiry appointed by
the President should do its duty,
let the blame fall where it will. We
believe they will not dare but do
this for the eyes not only of United
States but all civilized nations are
now centered upon them anxiously
awaiting their findings. No fimsy
report will satisfy them-nothing
but true facts, openly stated, will he
satisfactory. Our brothers and Our
sons are too faithful to their coun-
tty, too loyal to Old Glory, too
true 10 the cause of liberty to suffer
such indignities that few officers
might amass an ill-gotten fortune.
