cbrIstmns Dinner for the Poor

As is customary it is understood that the Salvation Army will again this year give dinners on Christmas to d num- bei of the poor of the city. This is a good charity and the citizens generally should contribute liberally to the fund which will be raised.
 It was suggested Saturday that Chief Of Police Walters followed the plan of Chief Bodeker of Birmingham, which is that each patrolman inquire on his beat and learn what family will need and be worthy of a good dinner on Christmas Day. The officer will report such families to the desk sergeant, who in turn would hand the names over to the chief of police, who would in turn give them to the commanding officer of the Salvation Army. The day after Christmas the po- lice officer would inquire of the families on his beat whether they had received the Christmas dinner. In this way a number of families which would not get a good dinner would be made happy. With the number of dinners to be given known in advance it is thought that the money to buy them with could be col lected much quicker.

CITY COUNCIL TO MEET

Selma. December 10.-(Special)-The Selma Refund association was organized today among the retail merchants of the city and if will be the means of bringing considerable aditional trade to the city during the next few weeks.
 The retail merchants who formed the association agreed to return the railroad fare for radius of 60 miles to any GUS toner who will purchase to the amount of S25 from any one or all of those who have joined the organization This plan has never been tried by the merchants of Selma before, but they believe that 1t will be instrumental in the bringing of considerable trade here which has been going elsewhere. Practically every retail merchant of any standing in the city has joined the association Those who have not yet become members will no doubt join as the refund of fares will be prorated with the merchants accord ing to the amount of goods which the purchaser buys from them.

SOFT DRINK PLACES WILL BE REOPENEDI Liquor and Bar Fixtures to Be
 Taken in Custody
SHARPE ISSUES ORDER
Orders Followed Filing of Anidavfts Fly Proprietors That Places Were Sealed Without Their Consent or Agreement

Juse H. A. Sharpe of the city court yesterday issued decretal orders that Sheriff Higdon surrender to their pro- as result of injunctions issued against Edward H. Hickman. Charlie Cruse and Henry Dottenheimer, in one case, and J .E. Williams, Harry Rensford and Will liam Shoppert in another.
 Judge Sharpe's orders sustained mo- tions to this effect filed by the attorneys for these defendants accompanied by af- fdevaits that their places of business were sealed without their consent or agreement A like order was issued in the case of the State vs. Fulton, Fergu- son. Smith and Pearson, which has ai- ready had hearing and has gone to the supreme court on one phase.
 Under these orders the places will bs rcopened and the confiscated goods re- moved by the sheriff to the county jail. It was understood at the time the in- functions were executed that the places were to be sealed by the sheriff and ths contents left intact, but the motions and affidavits made recently deny this. None of the liquor or bar fixtures are to DO returned to the proprietors.
 The orders of Judge Sharpe followed all- day arguments yesterday in more injunc- ton cases. The case of the State vs. McFadden and the Wray brothers was again postponed, next Saturday being stated as the date. The cases argued yesterday before Judge Sharpe were those in which the above orders were issued, Attorneys Vaughan, Smith and Davidson being solicitors for the defendants.
 All other motions in the various cases were overruled, including the defendants motion in the case of the State VI. Johnnie Collins and Harry Flowers, that all fixtures taken into possession by the sheriff be surrendered. No affidavit was
 made in this case that the sheriff closed the place enjoined without consent of the propritors.
 Motions were withdrawn in the case of the State vs Edward H. Hickman, Dan Odum Al Campbell and one Rouzee.

City Council to Meet

The regular semirmonthly meeting of the city council is scheduled to be held at the city hall Monday night and a number of matters of importance will come up during the session for the at tention of the city fathers.
 The slowness with which some of the business concerns of the city pay their license tax is a matter of worry to the city government. The city needs money. IL takes a large amount of money to run the city and a way to remedy the delinquency in the matter of paying li- censes is being sought.
 It is stated that during the session Mon day night there will be made a sugges- ton which may be followed by the pass ing of an ordinance which will cause li- censes to be paid promptly This sug- gestion is that a time be set for the paying of the licenses to the city when they become due and that If they are not paid by the set day a penalty be imposed and collected by the city.
 The passage of such an ordinance would no doubt cause the prompt pay ment of all licenses and that is what the city is after. It is believed that Mayor Clay, in his message to the coun- cil will deal upon the license question at some length.

Lincoln County
Transportation Co.
Company Incorporated to Oper-
ate Vessels Between va
quina, Alsea, Siuslaw
and Portland.

Captain George Tyler has filed with |
the County Clerk articles of incorp-
Grafton of the Linoln County Trans
portation Company, and is low dis
posing of stock in the new company.
The object Of this company is to
operate freight vessels between this,
Alsea, Siusla W and Columbia river
ports, with principal offices at
Toledo. The company is incorpor-
ated with capital stock of $40, 900,
and will sell shares at S1.0O each.
The incorporators are George Tyler,
of Newport, A. H.Hill and F. G..
Savage of Portland. Capt. Tyler
will be captain Of the vessel and
manager of the company. The COM
pany has promised the Siuslaw
people ten-day schedule during
Summer months, and Yaquina Bay
a regular weekly eervice-that is the
boat will make scheduled trips from
Portland to all points on this Bay
as far as Toledo once a week, during
the Summer months and win run as
near the schedule in Winter months
as the weather and the bars will
permit.
The company has an option on
the power schooner Wilhelmina, 14O
tons, S5 feet long, 20 foot beam,
drawing ~ feet loaded, depth of
hold g feet 6 inches. The vessel is
equipped with heavy gear capable
Ct lifting seven tons. She is a twin
screw, $50 horsepower, also carries
sails. This boat was built about
year ago at cost of $4,000
The company has an option to
purchase the vessel at much small
er figure, and there is no doubt but
that the necessary stock will be sold
t. buy her. 1t is the intention of
the company to make the enterprise
principally Lincoln county enter
prise, and will sell most of the stock
III this county That the enterprise
will be successful there is no doubt.
as the business men and all citizens
II this Bay and both Alsea and
Sluslaw are subscribing for stock
and pledging material support in
the way of business. The CAPTAIN
informs us that he has already been
Offered several loads of freight.
CAPTAIN Tyler, who is to- manage
the com oany's business is one of
the best known masters on the coast
having been in the transportation
business for the past thirty five years
and has operated vessels on the coast
for over thirty years, consequently
is familiar with all the details of
the business and can and will give
the people and the company better
service than could probably any
other man, as he is acquainted with
every condition.
Itisup to the people to see that the
vessels bought and put on the run.
1t will mean thousands Of dollars a
year saved in freight rates This
alone would repay for the money
spent even if the company should
never pay dividend, and there is
no reason to believe that the comp
any will not pay dividends. If each
individual cannot take hundred or
a thousand shares take one, and
help this enterprise and thereby
help ourselves.
