Mesr. Cnnnell and Spencer and P.
Usher are building a dam in Bprague
creek. Thi dam ia further up than
the one already in Tide creek. This
mean that logging I going further
back, and men are awakening to the
necessity of dams for lodging purposes
in tbe small streams. The next thing
hould be for some energetic business
man to open Morrill creek, construct
dams aud get some of the fine timber
in tin neighbotbood to the worlds
market. But we do not approve of
hipping logs to market. Let ua have
the benefit of manufacturing it at
borne. It ia just aa easy to ship lum
ber from here as it ia lo ship it from
Portland or any other point on the
Columbia river. Transportation fa
cilities here cannot be surpsased.
We met a bnainess man a few daya
ago who Ulked creamery to ua in the
most intelligent way we have beard
any one talk on auch a business. ' In-
tead of buying the milk by the pound
he would also buy It by the test.' That
the man who would bring good,
rich milk, would get more than the
man who would bring watered milk,
or milk that would be purity aklmed.
He would also reject all unclean and
nd uuwholua me milk. Taking a
radius of four miles around Deer Is
land, we cannot see why the farmers
should not support such an industry
aa a creamery. We believe they will
realize far more than they now do
from a little db of butler they put on
the market. We are informed by a
reliable authority that some of the
ermera acroea the river netted over
SOO a cow the first years they bad a
creamery there. If the farmers will
give an inducement to a man like tbe
above, thero ia no reason why we
should not have one and do aa well as
they.

Kino's Vaixar, Or., Nov. 1.
1 long to aee the many of my true
friends and have a good visit wilii
them in their homes iu Columbia
county, but at present I am deprived
of that privilege, ao again I write for
the same purpose of impressing the
fact upon your minds that I bare not
forgotten none ot my aear irienaa, ana
never shall until I lose my memory.
My work at present is quito large. I
have eleven regular appointments, five
of which I serve twice a month, t)ie
remainder, once a month. We havi-
many true Evangelicala on my field of
labor, who will stand for Ood and the
church though tbe heavens fall, and
will never follow off a anspenaed
bishop. I waa quite unfortunate on
last Tuesday night. Aa I waa coming
home from my work quite late at
night, and aa I waa unhitching my
horse from tbe buggy, he got scared
and began jumping and finally threw
me to the ground, spraining my knee
so badly that I have been unable lo
walk since, but am improving at pres
ent.
Since I begun thi letter, and while
thinking it would be Impossible tor me
to fill my appointments tomorrow, it
being the Lord's day, a fine-looking
gentleman rode up and gave me to
understand that it is not goon tor man
to live alone, ao I presume tbe only
thing that I can do ia to double the
application of ointment and be ready
to make two souls happy tomorrow.
My work ia ia a good condition
spiritually, and ha Increased in num
bers since 1 took Charge oi it.
Now, dear friends, as -much aa I
would like lo aee you all and preach
to you the blessed Gospel of the Bon
of Cod, I don't know just when I will
enjoy that blessed privilege. Ia con
clusion, if any 6ne in your country de
sires to buy a good home in uoiumeia
county, I will sell tbem mine on Mil
ton creek for the small sum oi uw.
The family are well and all in good
heart. Your friend, as aver.

of the leg. It may not be dangerous.
Mr. Walfred Miller is getting ready
to start sawing lumber. He talks of
building a new frame house.
Mr. Atwatera'a minister of Portland,
paid Spring Valley a viait last week

DEEP CREEK.
From all appearance tbe winter
raina have set iu for the season.
The grist-mill is kept busy prepar
ing the winter supply of bread.
The potato crop is about all harves
ted being about an average yield.
There ia an abundant supply of
winter apples of very fine quality. In
fact everything ia plentiful but money.

Our Good Templar lodge meeta

bly with the membership. Our teach

The family of Mr. Payne are nearly
all sick with coughs and colds.
Lester Rice, while playing with one
ot Mr. Quigley'a boys, received a bad
cut with an ax just below the knee,
which prevents him from attending
school.
We spoke of tbe new logging indue
try in our last report, but its existence
waa of short duration. The teacher.
backed by the school authorities, stop
ped further, operations, fearing, per
haps that a log might jump from the
chute and run through the school-
bouse. The company, rather than
sue for damages, made Mr. 1 ingle a
bresent of the logs already out and
turned ita attention in the direction of
a new enterprise.
We were wondering what caused
Mr. Young to go ever to Clatskanie
Friday evening through the mud and
rain until we heard that the Shaver
went out that nigbt with the tide,
then all waa plain.
During the full moon tbe tides were
extremely low, which ga e us a chance
to explore the hull of the little steamer
Minnie Hill, which was burned about
two months ago. The Minnie was a
trading boat and burned about mid
night, which gave those on board no
chanoe to aave the money from the
drawer, consisting of considerable gold
coin. The thought that we miRht
find some of this money made our ex
plorations more interesting, aud while
searching among the old caus, pans
and other rubbish we discovered an
old iron teakettle with tbe spout close
against the upright boiler and the lid
fastened down with wire. Thinking
this might have been used for a safe,
we pried the lid off, and there, sure
enough was a water dog. Query:
How did Mr. Dog get inside of said
kettlet ' ,
Tbe logging team at the camp of
Fisk and Johnson ran away last week

This la pretty damp weather for re
porters to skirmish around looking

very careful what they do and say for
fear their names will appear in print,
therefore itema are scarce.
The new warehouse of the Pacific i
Fish Company will soon be completed,
The new firm of Smith A Simmons,

There are some changes in the
steamboat business bore after tbis
week. The Iralda expects to make
her daily tripa from Sulla instead of
Rainier. The Manzanillo ia doing the
