THE OREGON MIST. hL'lWCBIPTtOJlt 11.30 PER YlEAtt. Et, Helerb, JAnriRY 1, 1892. YOLUMt 0, NUMBER I. Willi ill! Smuu The Mist begins the ninth year of it continuous publica- tlon. This it volume, nino, number one, commencing on New Yeara day, 1892. Thb Mist wm established in 1883 and ha been published once week ever nince that time. A tut the paper has wet with (air degree of success and has been Instrumental of a (real deal of good toward the up building of Colunniia county, and ha t all timea advocated such measure a woulj tend to ad.ance the common welfare of its people, consequently it haa met with favor and a liberal pat' ronage from the people which it haa looked to for support. True, the pres ent editor has had control of the paper only about five months, but during that time we have the pleasure to state that the business has been on the increase steadily, and as fast a our limited resources and ability will permit we propose to Improve th paper. Whether or not Thk Mist lia been instrumental in the progress of Columbia county we leave it for our readers to determine. V The population of the connty in creased from 20J2 in 1880 to 5191 in 1890, an increate of 3149, beiug 154.11 percent. There are but two counti te la the state whose percentage is larger than this Multnomah. 197 per cent.. and Tillamook, 203 per cent. This, to My the least, is highly gratifying, and Thb MisT points with pride to the figures quoted The year 1891 has been one of pros perity to the county, and a. large in crease of population as well as an in crease in taxable wealth has been re corded in our favor. To our patron who have aided the paper financially and otherwise during these years we wish to extend our thanks, and trust that we may merit tlie cood will and liberal support of all. . . We do not claim that Th Mwr alone is responsible for the county'. iapid progress, but we do claim that it lias been largely because of the effort of the paper in that direction. As for Ibe new year, indications point to one of great progress in farm ing, lumbering, road building, railroad construction! etc., which is, to some extent, afready in progress. Before the close of 1892 we earnestly belie v that a railroad the entire length of the county, and to Astoria, will be com pleted. With this road greater pros perity is assured to our people than ever before. : As for ourselves, personally, we have no apology to make. The paper speaks for itself. If you think it worthy of your patronage we will gladly receive it ; and wishing all onr readers a happy New Year, we remain your humble servant. degrees below sew of Nebraska, Kan- J nit, and the Dakotaa. Of court, f he could not be Induced to stay If months, he would get over his di'gust, become a genuine wobfoot, and fight any proposition to have better rouilt because of "taxes." , There is no use trying to dodge taxes, I nor to really reduce thorn. It cannot be done. Taxes are en re at death, Instead of continually contending against them, It would be much better to try and discover some better plan of raising the money to pay them with than going twice or thrice over a bad road to market when once over a good road would serve the same purpose. W. J. CASH STORli.! -DKALKRS lt- Thb rumors of a 'grow thicker and thicker all the time. The United States is making all possible haste in preparing hei navy and army for act ion against Chili, and the latter country seems equally determined not to apologue for the killing of the t'uited States steamer Baltimore's bailors in Valparaiso, Chili. A con' diet witlUhat country seems inevitable and promises to be a warmly contested one, at least for a little while. WASHINGTON LETTER. BO ADS AND TAXATION. The Boseburg Plaindealer sums up the road and tax question in tbs fol lowing I Our correspondent, instead of trying to better his condition by improving his surroundings at an in crease of tax and an increase in the valuation of paoperty, and by increas ing facilities for getting full loads to market, seeks ratharto economise by -reducing the expenses and keeping the country in a state of statu qua as it was In the beginning, is now and ever shall be mad without end, etc. Economy is & good thing and nothing under the tun stands more in need of economy than the administration of our laws and the expenditure of pub lie money, on roads, court houses, or . for other purposes. But tbero is such tiling as being to economical. It isn't the amount of the taxes that makes life a burden to the farmer and laborer, so much as it is the lack of cash to pay them. A man can much easier pay one hundred dollars a year taxes, if he has the hundred dollars, tlian be can fifty dollars, if be is in a chronic state of bankrapsy, by reason of being unsble to get his produce (if he had any) to market on account of bad roads. No country can ever ex pect to prosper until it bat developed enough enterprise and energy to make roads passable at all seasons of the year. Let us have good roads. Of course they should be as economically constructed as possible, but by all means let ns have good roads. It is the very poor est economy to make too tripa to mar ket, consuming an entire day each time, when if there were reasonably good roads the same quantity of pro duce could be hauled to market at one load, and the trip made in half a day. This lack of transportation facilities is almost the only draw-back to Oregon and is just what is keeping her from marching at the head of the procession in almost every branch of industry. It is one of the principal reasons why there is to little money in the country to pay taxes with. A stranger comes to Oregon from theblixserd East He wants to locate, and a live real estate man catches him, inveigles him into a mud wagon and starts out to show him a fins piece of property a few miles from town. Before three miles have j been traveled the stranger is homesick eutl longs for (lie frozen plaint and 40 ! From Our Regular Corrttpandnt.) Washisotos, D. C, Dee. 25, Wl Secretary Blaine says, and he cer tainly knows, that notwithstanding tne numerous startling aud alarming ru mors prevalent there are no new dev elopments in tne Chilian difficulty, It is believed that the eynopxis of the report made of the investigation by the Chilian authorities of the attack upon the sailors of tne Baltimore, which was cabled to a number of American news papers Wednesday, is correct, but notb- iojr can be done untill the official re port m received by tne state depart ment, and if it comes bv mail, which is probably owing to its length, it may be several weeks before it gets liere. rhe indications now are that Chill will .Incline to apolopti, and if she does the probabilities favor serious trouble, possibly war. il Speaker unsp bad been intent upon widening the breach in the dem ocratic party in the House be could not have done it better than he did in. his committee nsfignments. x lie snub administered to Mr. Mills and his strongest supporters is so plain that even be who runs may read. The Crisp gang, which include all of be worat elements in the democratic party are in absolute control of every important committee of the house, which by the wsy, is a mighty good thing for the republcan party, ss it is certain that Mills and his friends will take any occasion after the reaserablinc of congress to show their resentment, and it is equally certain that the re publican representatives will take the trouble to pour any oil upon the troubled democratic waters. Its a democratic rjw, and members of that party wilt be allowed to fight it out It is said that certain democratic senators have approached Senators Quay and Cameron, of Pennsylvania, with a propositionto exchange votes against the confirmation of George Dallas, the Pennsylvania, democrat recently nominated for judge of the new circuit court, for votes against i he confirmation of the nomination of Judge Woods, of Indiana, to the similar position. It is extremely doubtful whether any republican seuator would take part ia any suchbargain, and j our correspondent pieJicU that all of the nominations which the president has up to this time made to the bench of the circuit court will be confirmed. although it ia probable that Senators Voorhees and Turpin, of Indiana, may succeed in getting all of the democrats to vote against Judjre Woods. Senator Stanford s bill for the erec tion of an addition to the White house, wLich was before congress st the last session, has been again introduced, and the senator has hopes of its getting through this time. The new bill only differs from the old one in saying that the addition may be built from the plans proposed by Mrs. Harrison, or from those prepared by others, ss a commission composed of the secre taries of state, the treasury and of war, may decide. No one at all familiar with the present White house denies the pressing necessity for the addition. Much interest ia expressed here as to who will succeed Senator Plumb, whose sudden death last Sunday gave Washington a shock from which it has not yet entire recovered, and many prominent republicans have expressed the wish that the governor of Kansas would appoint Mr. Ingalls to rill the unexpired term. Those who express this wish mean no disparagement of the other gentlemen who have been mentioned in that connection ; they simply recognize the great usefulness to the party of a man of ex-Senator Ingalls experience, at this time, when General merchandise, Crockery, Boots, Shoes, Glassware, Ladies Dress Goods, Queensware.

Secretary Elkiut, whese nomination has been unanimously confirmed by the senate, arrived iu Washington yesterday. The announcement of the sudden death of Hon. 3. A. J. CresswWl, ol Maryland, who was iKwImaetrr general during the whole of the first and a part of the seeoud term ol f resident Grant, which occurred at Elkton, Maryland, on Wednesday, is deeply regretted here, where he had many warm personal friends. Senator Sherman, lust before the adjournment of congress to January 6, introduced the bill, which was unani mously reported from the foreign af fairs committee at the last session, providing for the guarantee of f 100,- 000,000 of the bonds of thoNicaraugua Canal Company. Senator Hausbrough introduced a bill authorizing the postmaster general to extend, when practicable, the free delivery system to rural or farming communities and to expend such por tion of the amount that may hereafter be appropriated for compensation of poelmasUrs and for star route trans portation as may be necessary to carry out thia act DEEDS RECORDED.

It produces the hot buckwheat, Indian or wheat cakes, hot biscuit, doughnuts, waffles or muffins. Any of these tasteful things may be eaten when hot with impunity by persons of the most delicate digestive organs. Dr. Price's Cream Bak ing Powder leavens without firmentation or decomposition. In its preparation none but the purest of cream of tartar, so da, etc. is used, and in such exact equivalents as to always guarantee a perfectly neutral result, thereby giving the natu ral and sweet flavor peculiar to buckwheat and other flour that may be used, the natural flavor so much desired and ap predated by alL The oldest patrons of Dr. Prices powder tell the story, that they can never get the same results from any V other leavening agent, that their griddle cakes, biscuits, etc. are never so light and never taste so sweet or so good as when raised with Dr. Prices Cream Baking Powder. .
