At a special meeting held at the school house Wednesday evening, a special 5-raill tax was voted to raise funds for the purpose of defraying current school expenses in this dis trict. The directors will realizo about 400 from this rate and wil thus be able to conitnuo tho school until the expiration of the current school year It will be with regret that our young peoplo will 1 am that Mr. Gilson, of Houlton, will cut the greater amount of timber away from the skating-pond known as Broyles' lake. This lake has been the scene of much merriment in the way of skating, and when the tim ber is cut away, it Is feared that a difference will take effect In the freezing of the lake and thus spoil lots of sport. The people of Vernonia have been experiencing considerable difficulty of late with high water. The recent heavy snow and rain was the cause of tho Nehalem river and Rock creek raising to an almost unknown height sweeping logs, brush, etc., along with the raging to-rent, and flooding part of the town. Persons conse quently journeyed to their places of business in small boats, so we have been informed. Spencer Rose didn't tell us, but wo have good reason to believe the story. Eveiything now points to the pos sibility of St. Helens being supplied with fresh mountain water. If the proper encouragement is manifest this thing can be brought to a suc cessful termination, and St. Helens can have as pure, clean water as any own in the state, An improvement is possible over the present supply ind we earnestly hope the change -;an be brought around. The prop osition we believe is to bring the water from one of the large springs n Germany Hill, a thing which ;ould be easily done without requir ing the outlay of a great amount of money. A conservative estimate laco8 the cost of the proposition at ihout ?500. The county court at Us last ses don took a step In the right direc lon by not allowing road supervis es more than one day's pay for rvery six days worked on the roads. .oad supervisors have been known o work their office for what there vas in it In Columbia County, re tardless of the public good. The ate order of court, will, to some ex ent, prevent theso abuses of pub lic trust. Men who have the inter ests of the road districts at heart jhould be appointed to fill theso of fices; men who will not work the thing entirely In their own interests. It is true that a man should receive lust compensation for his services, but It is evident to many that some have received pay for what they have not done CLIFF. In St. Helens on Tues day night, January 21, to the wifo of Dr. H. XI. Cliff, a son. Jay Doming, a former employe of the Mist office, left Friday for Salem where he was called to take a "sit" in tho state printing office. Jay is a very faithful and efficient printer, and we beHovc will prove x valuable adjunct In the state office. NOTICE TO CREDITORS.
