Warm rain and wind on the II

mained in this locality.
Leslie Evens left on the 18th for
Portlant to take a position offered
him by hardware house.
Rev. R. z. Brown who has been
assisting Rev. Guynn in the church
work here, departed on Monday for
his home in Philomath.
Last night and today we are hav-
ing the hardest blow, and the high
est tide we have had this winter.
Dick Evens so far as we have
heard has the largest pot shot of
ducks for this season, bagged 12
fine Sprigs with one barrel, and
raised the score to II before the
birds got out of reach.
What was supposed to be a tele-
phone meeting was held on the 16.
Voted to raise Capital Stock, and
instructed the Secretary to make
necessary application to the Secre-
tary Of the State. But on looking
up the law on what was necessary
for him to do he found that the
whole proceedings were illeagal an d
refused to proceed further.

necessary expense of bringing his
witnesses this long distance to testi-
fy in his case. Why would it not
have been better to have taken the
case to the landoffioe in Portland,
which is closer than Toledo, or to
Tillamook where it belonged, or to
some other county seat closer than
this place? What justice, what
sense is there in such monkey bust
ness?

Several land cases have been
heard before County Clerk Ira Wade
at the courthouse last week and
this. Special Agent H. T. Jones
has appeared for the Government.
Ben Jones, Col. Robert A. Miller
of Portland, and others have been
defending the homesteaders. The
cases are all contest cases wherein
the Government has contested the
right of the entryman to the land,
and most if not all the cases are
practically farces. This is par
ticularly true in the case of U. S.
vs.. Willis l.. Johnson, and shows
what little respect Uncle Sam some
times shows toward the meek and
lowly homesteader who is, usually,
honestly trying to secure a home.
MIR. Johnson's homestead is in Till
amook County, his witnesses, of
course, are all residing in Tilla-
nook county. but the Government
forced Mr.. Johnson to come some-
thing like one hundred and
thirty miles to this county
to fight for his rights.
What reason or justice is there in
having this man go to all this un-

The Commissioners Court has or
dered survey of she Toledo-Siletz
wagon road. 1t is the Courts, as
well as the peoples, desire to make
this a first class road. The survey
or was instructed that in making
the survey to avoid more than six
per cent grades at all times. With
a good plank, gravel or corduroy
road with no steep hills our farmers
will be able at all seasons of the
year to haul their produce to town.
A road such as this is to be will i H.
crease the value of the farms on and
near this road from fifty to hund-
red per cent. When the advanta-
ges of this road is seen it will be
easier to build good roads in other
parts of the County. Good roads
is a bigger inducement to bring
new people into the county than
any other thing, and until we have
them our county will always be be-
hind other counties in development.
What makes land values so high in
Tillamook county? Is it that the
land is more productive? We think
not. 1t is simply that the county
has good roads, miles and miles of
them. We are going to have good
roads in this county, too, and this
Siletz road will be the beginning.

Senator Chamberlain.

Last Tuesday the legislators of
the state of Oregon elected Cover
nor George Chamberlain for United
States Senator. We are glad of it.
We are glad to see the pledges made
by our representatives kept. We
did not want Chamberlain nor any
other Democrat elected Senator, but
we certainly did not want our rep
resentatives to go back on their
pledges. Chamberlain has made a
good Governor, from Democrat 8
standpoint, and will probably make
a good Senator. Anyway, hurrah
for Senator Chamberlain.

1t is to be hoped that the people
of the Lower Siletz will be able to
swing that boat proposition. They
need such a boat and if they are
ever to go ahead and develops that
part of the county they must have
better means Of transportation than
at present. A small boat such as
is being talked of seems to be he
only feasible way out of their
trouble. By the time the boat be-
comes two small for the business
they will have good wagon roads
and perhaps a railroad.

The Lion and the Child,

The strange spectacle of a lion play
ing with child is reported to have
been witnessed at Vryheid. A Dutch
farmer, accompanied by his wife and
little boy, was out shooting game.
Suddenly the attention of the parents
was drawn to the child, who had tod
died short distance away to gather
wild flowers. Growing with delight,
the little fellow was pulling the hair
Of a full grown lion, and the animal
appeared to be enjoying the operation.
Spellbound, the farmer and his wife
stood gazing at the scene. The farmer,
even If his gun had contained a shot,
could not have fired because Of the
child. The lion skipped sportively
round the boy until, startled by loud
shouts from the parents, it walked
quietly away, followed by lioness,
which up to then had lain concealed In
the long grass. A hunt was afterward
organized, but the lions had disappear
ed into the thick bush.-East Rand
