The residents of Olga and vicinity
ought not to allow the COmparatively
new wharf there to lapse into Gin
desuetude," to quote the lam
guage Of the great Grover. 1t has
been in need of some new piles and
fender posts for several months. 1t Is
understood that the owners of both the
mail steamers have offered to aid in the
work. No community which has 30
good mail and transportation facilities
as Olga ought to be without good
wharf.
THE ISLANDER has received o COM
from resident Of Waldron
island, who says she Is lady, making
some very serious charges against her
husband, whose name she gives. We
do not presume to question the truth
OF. the lady's statement, andher evidence
certainly seems conclusive and that
she has been cruelty wr0nged, but 1t
does not seem probable that any good
could be accomplished by the publica-
ton of her letter, even lift were signed,
as it should be, by the writer's own
name. II the facts are as she alleges
she should experience no difficulty IN
having her marriage annulled.
