rifle, to be ready for what it
might be, when to his surprise

The boy shot, hitting the bear in
the breast. He turned and ran
for the canyCn, the boy after
him through the fern. He shot
again killing the bear dead. 1t

WHY SLEEP LONGER? /,
LET'S UP AND DOING

If you didn't attend the meet
ing at Newport on the 18th inst.
you missed something.
The object Of this meeting
was to consider the advisability
of Lincoln county cooperating
with the Government for the re-
opening Of Yaquina Bay-in
short to make the Bay deep
water harbor, a port of entrance
for large vessels.
! The meeting was largely at
tended and the audience very
attentive. Congressman Haw-
ley, the Hon. Binger Herman
and a number Of prominent tim
ber men were the main speakers.
The fact was pointed out that
If we Of Lincoln county did not
put our shoulder to the wheel
and help ourselves to establish
an outlet for our immense re-
sources we could and would lie
dormant and rot as it has been
in the past.
With our immense timber in
terests approximating fifteen
billion feet; our diversified farm
ing interests, with deep harbor
water way at Yaquina Bay; the
installing of large saw mills on
the Bay; the larger sea-going
vessels loading our lumber for
all ports of the world, think Of
the untold wealth that would be
Opened up to us Of the inestim-
able benefit to the farmer. He
benefits first, last and all the
time. A home market will be
established through the advent
of sawmills, camps, ETC., for
hundreds of tons Of produce.
His excess products can be ship
ped at a minimum cost, and 1t
will be worth while to, increase
herds of cows and cattle, hogs,
sheep and goats. ve>
The movement of our timber
"Opens up the vast area. in the
Siletz country; win bring In
hundreds of settlers and put LIN
coin county in the front ranks
of the prosperous coast counties,
instead of being at the tail end
of the procession as we now are.
II is time for us to wake up;
time to grasp this wonderful op-
Iportunity, to get very busy. II
our Uncle Sam will proceed with
this project We must meet him
half way, not so much to help
him as to help ourselves. Our
timber is over ripe, 1t Is de-
teriorating in value and under
the present conditions no chance
for 1t to be harvested. Why
should we continue to sit idly by
and not help ourselves?
With the deep sea harbor,
sawmills and the advent of log
ging roads, our prosperity
would be assured and would be
an actual condition, not dor
mant wealth as 1t now is.
Just think this matter over,
good people, and when the time
arrives cast your lot with the
side that is for the upbuilding Of
our magnificent Lincoln county
and not with the side that is sat
isfied to remain In the old rut.
You owe this to yourself and
to your children.
Get in the band wagon and
boost for a greater Yaquina Bay
and a happy, prosperous, pro-
gressive, greater Lincoln county.
!. Am. Reddy.

DAUGHTERS DANCE
WITH TEXAS VETS"
Fiddle Is Brought Out,
and Years Drop From Ex-
Confederates' Shoulders.

AUSTIN. Tex, Dec. 12.-For q short
hour yesterday little plot Of ground
on the outskirts OF the city was alien
soil. The Confederacy lived again. The
Confederate Home is only the abode of
white-halred, feeble, old men, a place
of memories.
But yesterday it was changed. The
grim old halls echoed to the dance tunes
of half a century ago.
1t all began with the Daughters of
the Confederacy, who held their state
convention here. A group Of gray clad
figures. hunched in chairs, sat on the
wide veranda OF the home and droned
in monotonous undertones. A bevy OF
women in gay summer dresses halted
the veranda. p. 80 49,.
! The buzzing ceased suddenly. Several
back-tilted chairs sought upright posi-
tions with q clatter. A tan man with
steps to meet them. A pretty woman
answered his look Of inquiry.
Captain. were Daughters Of the Com
federacy," she said. "We've-we've come
to dance with you boys
YOU the captain began. Then
his head inclined in a graceful bow:
Madame" he replied. I'VE will be
hono'ed."
He led the way on the veranda. In
stantly every veteran was on his feet.
The women passed into the hall be-
, tween two lines OF bowling gray heads.
An ancient fiddle quickly appeared
from some mysterious hiding place; Its
table. Then the orchestra" swung in
to the strains of THE Buffalo Girl"
The gray company. the years fallen
from their shoulders and rheumatic
and other old dances with the grace or
, fifty years ago.

up for general repair work to put her
in readiness for summer service.
