tate be started. If the amount is
$500 or under the fee is $2.5 so. The
child is young and the estate re-
mains i'll court fifteen years. Much
work is done and the county receives
ST. while it pays the clerk many
times this amount. The $2.5o fee
will not pay the postage expense.
If Brown wants to have a suit at
law, let Brown pay the expense
and not ask his neighbor Dixon to
pay portion of it. 1t is not just.

be abolished.

THE LEADER is in receipt of a
communication this week from
Morrison which does not appear in
our columns. 1t is rather lengthy
and somewhat personal, THE
LEADER does not wish personal
matters to appear in its columns
any more often then is absolutely
necessary. Don't attack neighbors
but state your argument and let it
go at that. 1t is much better in
every way and makes the newspa-
per no enemies. He says among
other good things: "Mr. Editor,
am no hunter. but would like 10
see all the deer run out the noun
tains. My observation has been
that deer meat costs the hunter
more i'll time spent than more sa-
worry meat would cost in coin. But
our trouble which the deer causes
is the fact that there are so few
dogs that will chase varments when
they come to deer track, that it
IS no use trying to get rid of them
in that way. And as to trapping,
that can ONLY be done when The
varment has killed an animal and
then the trap set by it, and even
then, how often does the old trap
per fail? AS for dogs killing goats
and sheep, have made consider
able inquiry and find that bear have
killed more i'll one flock than dogs
have killed i'll the whole neighbor-
hood for eight years. 1t has always
been but a short time until the deer
had to give way to the settlers, and
it will be so here, yoh may pass all
the game laws, write all you NAV,
generate all the bad blood you may,
and even then the deer will soon be
a thing of the past. The small
stock that the varmen,s have killed
would be worth more to Lincoln
County than all the deer that ever
was in it,"

Like MAN that is born of wo.
man" the salary system is of "but
few days and full of trouble" I,
is not a just system to begin with
and it is the cause of increased tax
alton wherever used. The county
clerk is obliged to do world OF
work in probate matters for moth
ing. If man receive a legacy, he
should be willing to bear his por-
ton OF the expense of securing it;
others should not be obliged to pay
any part of it. Why should YOU
help pay for the settling of your
neighbours estate? When an estate
is admitted to probate the county
receives as follows: When the
amount of property involved is S5co
or less, the fee is $3.50 and so on
up the scale, over $1,000 calling for
a fee of SEQ. The charges cover

Our philanthropic brother severe
ly criticizeS. This is easy. No in
telligence is necessary Cor a kicker.
All Oregon, excepting few Port
landers, want the remedy, want
something definite, something
tangible, something certain. Will
the Journal point itout? The same
class of critics lived in Lincoln's s
day. They made the same kind of
caustic remarks. So the work of
every great man has been criticised
but did it effect the result? Did
the critics leave life record to
which others pointed with pride?

eous? If Mr.. Tongue and Mr.. Nc
Bride are recreant to their trust,
give our people the facts to prove i,
and their political life will be brief,
indeed. And if the Journal man
knows of a man or men who can
and will accomplish better results,
show our people the man or men
and produce the guarantee and there
will be no trouble about the action
of the people. But bare assertions
OF the above sort are only poisonous
particles which annoy but never
kill, neither do they benefit anyone
and hence, they are useless.
Messrs. Mcbride and Tongue did
not obtain from congress what was
greatly desired by Oregon people in
general and Yaquina people in par
ticular, and many of our people at
tribute it to,a negligence on the
part of these men, but no one has
discovered any plot, no one has de-
cided against them except on hear
say evidence or a view of the re-
suits. 1t is not much better to de-
lay Judgment against these or any
other men until good and sufficient
grounds are secured for base upon
which such Judgment may rest?
Let him who has succeeded in
every project undertaken in his
own life throw the first stone.
