NEWPORT

Mrs. Geo. Pratt returned Monday
evening from visit with relatives
at Salem.
Well, what do you know about this :?
The Yaquina Bay News jumps onto
the Leader because the Newport Cor
respondent shows up the rotten condi-
tion OF Front Street in the Resort City.
The News editor says the Leader
should look at the condition of some
OF Toledo's streets before saying any
thing~about Newport's streets. In the
first place the Leader editor did not
write the item referred to and the
Newport correspondent only is respon-
sible for same. In the second place
II Toledo has bad streets 1t Is no
reason for Newport to try to go her
one better along the same line. In
the third place the. News editor did
not deny that the street is going to
pieces. He seems to think that no.
thing should be said about it-maybe
he is right in this respect, the street
speaks for itself. Now we wish to ask
! the News man not to jump onto the
Leader because he takes exception to
the items sent in from Newport but
to direct his remarks at the cores
pondent, whose name he will find in
the alphabet.
A representative Of a sardine can
ming establishment was here not long
ago looking over the situation for
establishing sardine cannery at this
place. Not meeting with very much
encouragement he passed us up and
we understand that the cannery will
be put up at Marshfield, a place where
they meet prospective enterprises at
least half way.
