as? THE OREGON MIST. SUBSCRIPTION, It.SO PFH YKAR. 8x. Hklsns, February 28, 1892. L tx ju -- Ail opert fiver to the sea from the lStad water of tlie Columbia Is what the producer of Oregon and Wash- tucton need moat. Not so much ery deep channel, tut unobstructed navigation for river steamers and bareet to the mouth of the river al Astoria when ships may enter and 1 moored in perfect safety in all kinds of weather. It is not actually neces sary for aen-gotog Vessels to come a! the way up to Portland for their cargo when they are compelW to use the steamers and barges just the same to be able to get back to sea agAin. The small boats transport th farm pro duct to Portland and why not go right on to Astoria and load it into the ship there instead of all this extravagance iu towiug them up the creek to Port land and then be compelled to lighter them down the river again by these same steamers at a very heavy extra expense. Astoria is the natural com mercial point for Oregon, and after the millions of dollars are spent in making a ship channel to Portland ibe will still be the natural harbor. We most need an appropriation for the completion of the locks at the Cascades and the portnge railway at Celilo. The following from The Dalles Times-Mountaineer voices the senti- of the people of the Inland Empire "Portland is making, an herculean ef fort to secure an appropriation from Congress to deepen the channel to As toria, and if successful this will work against the appropriation for the Cas cade locks and the ship railway. The Iuland Empire is interested in an open river; and when the obstructions to navigation in the Columbia are re moved , it will be more convenient for oroducera to float their grain to As toria than up the Willamette to Pert- land." Peksident Harbison has at last ap pointed a judge for the ninth judicial district of the new court of appeals. Uon. William B. Gilbert, of Portland, is the lucky man; whose name was sent to the senate Tuesday by the president for confirmation. Mr; Gilbert is an able lawyer and has resided in Fort land where he has been engaged in the practice of hia profession for many years. He bad the endorsement of nch men as ex-Attorney-General G. II. Williams, Judge Shattuck, judge Moreland, Judge Catlin and many other prominent men of both parties. The salary of the judgship to which Mr. Gilbert has been appointed is $6000 a year. lie holds office uuder the act of March 3, 1891, giviug each of the nine circuits an additional judge, and providing a circuit court of appeals. This was done to relieve the United States supreme court of a great deal of its work. There is no appeal froni the circuit court of appeals, but the United States supreme court may re view the cases. James W. Scott, publisher of the Chicago Herald and Chicago Evening Pott, recently refused the largest alary ever offered ariy than in any profession or line of business in this country. Joseph Pulitzer, of the New York World, offered Mr. Scott a salary of $100,000 a year for a term of five years; and other inducements, if he would give his entire time and atten tion to the management of the World. In declining it Mr. Scott declined a yearly salary double that paid the president Of the United States. WASHINGTON LETTEB. From Our Regular Correspondent.) Wabhihotoh, D; C.; Feb. 19, 1892. Trie legislative cowardice of the democrats of the house was in striking contrast with the honest and manly courage of the republicans in the last congress. And the "gall" displayed by the alleged democratic leaders, when they found that they had lost control of the majority of tbe dem ocratic members of the house, wag wonderful, not to say ludicrous. They actually tried to get the republicans of the house to promise to help them out of their dilema, a promise, it is need less to say, they did not get. Early in tbe week it was ascertained that the free silver men had succeeded in ob taining the signatures of more than a majority of the democratic members of the bouse to a petition asking the committee on rules to set a date for tbe consideration of the Bland free coinage bill, already on tbe calendar. It was plain that this petition could not be ignored, so in order to gain a little time Speaker Crisp took a day off, "by order of his physician," and Mr. Catchings, one of the other demo cratic members ot the "committee on rules was suddenly called to Boston "on urgent private business," and, of course, the remaining democratic members of the committee on rules could hot ball a meeting of that com mittee. It was at this time that re publicans were.' approached with a statement that if they would promise to vote with the anti-silver 'democrats against tbe Bland hill it could be de feated by a majority of five or six, even allowing that those republicans Who were committed in favor of the bill should vote for it. The republi C di leaders are far too smart to tell the domoemtt in advance what they will uo when the silver bill comes up, bin the cliame's are that they will allow the democrats to fight it out among tlietiiselroa. Many senators believe that the in vestigation of the introduction of ty. ptnie fever into New York and Crook lyn by Russian Hebrew immigrants, authorised by joint resolution of the senate and house, Will result in a re port showing the necessity of making S vUeal change iu our immigration Itwa. Behring sea matter and Canadian reciprocity were discussed at a cabinet meeting thia week in a general way. The tardiness of the Behriog sea com mission, now in session here,' in reach' pig a decision as to what question! are to be submitted to arbitration is far from satisfactory,- and the situation is not improved by reports that the delay is intentional on the part of the Brit ish commissioners, in order to prevent a renewal of the modus vivendi before the 6pening of the comiug seal season. On Canadian reciprocity there is but one opinion. When Canada wishes to enter into an agreement that will be just and equitable to both countries, the United States is ready to meet her half way ; but it is use!es for her to aste time in making such one-sided propositions as that submitted by her representatives here the other day.' Even democrats are becoming die- guxted with the big democratic ma jority in the house that does not dare to do what it really wants to do. Rep resentative Dungan, a democrat from Ohio say's of his party colleagues "J i am becoming convinced that this is a cowardly congress. It is becoming very tiresome to me. It ought to get np and do what the people expect it to do, and not be afraid of its shadow.' Tbe only difference between Mr. Duu gau and the undrejudiced observer of the present house is that while he is just "becoming convinced" and "tired" the observer has been both for some time. The democrats of the house this week, for the second time, defeated the senate resolution authorizing tbe sec retary of the navy to charter a vessel to carry the food to the starving Rus sians which has been contributed by big hearted American, which has been lying on the speaker's table, under a motion to reconsider, since it was first defeated. It matters little, so far as the Russians are concerned, a private generosity bas supplied a vessel, which is now almost ready to sail on its mis sion of mercy. Said a veteran observer: "No won der the democrats of the house are so anxious to start investigations of any and everything. They bope to stir up something to distract the attention of tbe public from their do-nothing policy." Mr. Holman is now leading a de termined assault of the "peanut" dem ocrats on the Iuuian appropriation bill. ine democrats ot the House are thankful for that invitation to Chicago, as it enable them to escape the dan' gers of tbree legislative days. The special train carrying as many con gressmen as care to go will leave here tonight, returning next Wednesday morning. . ' ST. HELENS TO CLATSKANIE What the Casual Observer' - covered en Route. Die- Editor Mist: A trip through Colombia county to i close observer cat! not be with out interest even I have noticed many items which might be of interest to your numerous readers. Leaving your city on the hurricane deck of an excellent quadruped , I made the trip in a remarkable short time. It can be ddhe in a day with a good horse. I was sorry to leave your city, especially your streets. I only wish they extended all the way, then I could not find any fault with the road. Your town Is really the only place I have seen in the Whole route that has the appearance of a city. Yon bav excellent paved streets and good side walka clear through the city, which is a great satisfaction to both the residents and travelers. The first place of note I came to was Columbia Ctty, which is at present undergoing a brushing. When I came in sight of the town It reminded me of a "shorn school girl." I cried glory, tbe goats did it. and thought I would invest in that kind Of stock, but alas I tbe brush got such a start on the goats that the pro prietors had to call on the general govern ment to swamp the streets so the passing traveler might think the city is undergoing some great improvement. Here I saw an excellent school boose, an old saw mill, a wood dock, a four-story hotel, some moss covered, tumbled down houses and some very neat cottages. The next place I came to was beer Is land. This place is a new town In an ex cellent farming country. There are only a few buildings here as yet. There is a good store of general merchandise, a saloon and a Northern Pacific railroad station. Con siderable business is done here, being tbe trading point for the Tide Creek logging camps. This place, I believe, would make Used in Millions of Homes 0 PH OP a healthy town sfte. The ground being of a dry fomution with pit nty ot good mount ain stream's. To my right I posed Hunters, Reuben', Oolils, Neer City and Dnnby. Hunters was the old railroad transfer town.' At present It has a sawmill , the Tide Creek Boom and Dam Company have their boom here, being the mouth ot Tide Creek tthfch will never move, unlike a railroad incline. Reuben has several buildings, a general merchan dlse store, saloon, a large wood wharf and warehouse. It is on the Columbia river and on the ship chunnel side. Goble, half a ml!e north, is also a promising town. At present the railroad transfers freight and passengers here to Washington serosa the Columbia river. The Northern- Puclfle railroad company has a ttfto depot here there are several buildings, a tine hotel, saloon, store, and some good residences. It la also the shipping point fur the Co umbia River Lumber A Fuel Company, who have a large sawmill a couple of Miles back on Goble creek, with a capacity of about 80,000 foet per day. They run a. double flume from the mill to the wharf. I understand they have over twelve miles of flume built through the tlmbef, by which they tarry lumber, cord wood, stave bolts, electric and telegraph poles. Taking It as it b at present, Goble is a rushing town, though it does not offer as good a shipping point as Reuben, which has a wagon road into NehsJem valley. Neer City is principally a cor.lwood and timber town. There is a large wharf here, a good Warehouse, stores and several good residences. As I pa-d by considerable activity seemed to be going on in the woods, the continual see-suit of the cross-cut and the loud wait of the steel wedge from the' blows rained upon its bald and bars head by the heavy sledge. ' Dauby bas a sawmill and some other minor industries. The next plrvce I came to was Rainier, a beautiful hamlet on a gentle slope sver looking the (frand Columbia river, and commanding one ot the finest sceneries in the Northwest. Here I met some familiar faces, those of W. J. Muckle and D. C. Ted ford, to whom I am Indebted for such substantialities as are absolutely necessary in life, Messrs. Muckle A Co. have a large store and are doing a good business. 1 his is to be the future city on tbe Colombia river. Business men have looked into it and are located here with the intention of staying. There are several fine residences, two or three large sawmills, a large sash and door factory, shingle mill and several other small industries. Messrs. Smith & Son's sawmi'.l is about the largest one on the Columbia river. . After leaving Rainier I uiut not pass through any town but through a fine agri cultural country. The Bearer and Cluts- kanie are beautiful valleys and very fertile. but tbe farmers are given to considerable experimenting. Borne clear and cultivate th upland and others clear and cultivate the bottom lead; some make slashings and leave nearly hlf tbe treea standing, while others leave simply shade trees. Borne plant orchards and set the trees very close together, while others set their trees very far apart. I have not observed anything very regular among the farmers ; each one seems to have a different way of building fences, arranging barns, constructing bouses, clearing land and cultivating the soil. " Clatskanie is a new town, but its pros pects are good, judging from the enormous buildings here. The volume of business must be heavy. Here we have six large sawmills with an average capacity of 25,000 feet per day, inch lumber. Certainly some of these mills cart cut a great deal more, while others not so much. There are many neat cottages and fine residences. Tbe most of the buildings arc' just new, in fact with an exception of one or two' buildings, the whole town has been constructed in tbe past couple of years. The traveling was splendid fer this time of the year. The road needs considerable repairing throughout. Wherever it has been cross laid with plank or punchlons the traveling is splendid. Good heavy punchion will last about twelve year's. I have encountered a greet many old rickety, dangerous bridrs, especially between St. Helens and' Rainier. Now the question arises . how is the county going to build these bridges. To build those bridges in a good substantial manner will cost close to $5000. Certainly the present board of county commissioners will not, dare not do this improvement till after election. The people demand new bridges, but how are they to get tbeni? if they should ask the county court to build those bridges they will indeed promise faithful to examine and attend to the matter immediately ; then sneak home and let the county judge ad journ court when be gets ready. From Rainier to Clatskanie there are not very many heavy bridges, but a great many have been washed away by recent floods and will give tbe supervisors considerable expense to replace them. One great fault I have with the road that the people tried to build it to straight and are always in too much of a hurry to get to tbe top of the hill. It is often the ease when a person is in too much haste to get to the lop he goes down fully as fast. Such is the trouble with our county ro&ds, and eventually the roads will be changed on those hills and the present labor will be a total loss. Bess. That Awful JTioy. Clatskasik, Or., Feb. 22, 1802. JEditos Mist: In the Issue of the 12th inst. of the Clatskanie Chief tbe correspond ent of Tbk Mist at this place, writes in re lation to tbe boy that Was sent to the Re form school. To use bis own words, "strange as It may seem to him. we have the right to differ from bis views." He says that be was (cached in a tender snott that he knew thebovand nittied him It seems a little singular, if he knew him sd well and pittied him so much, that he did not try and do something to reform him. Those neighbors who he refers to. it seems to ns, have little to do, when they run around the country and busy themselves about other people's business. Every neighborhood always hsye just such per sons in it, arid this one seems to have some such. As to the character of the boy, we powder: 40 Years the StandarcL refer your correspondent to K. D. Wood James Barr, a, 11, Murray and C. C, Lee We can give other responsible persons for reference necessary. These gentlemen have known the boy for the past several' years, and some of them have had the cars and custody ot him heretofore. As for reasons that they would not keep him we simply refer your correspondent to those persons. . Again we ssy that It said correspondent, or any respectable pernm, who can or will take this boy, feed, clothe, educate and train him up in the Way he should gov we have not the least doubt but what th peo ple of this place, anil th slate authorities, would be Ktud to have them do so. Now, while yetir correspondent seems to wurifi to protect the orphan, and has tried to raise a great hub-bub about this matter, ot which be knows but little, he should reniemb that the person of whom he writes,, is widow woman, who has to earn her Hr'nir by hard work, and that she was advised by tiie county official to take the step she did hi relation to the boy. Cum Tex PEER ISLAM). The farmers of this neighborhood are commencing the spring work,-and if the present fine weather continues they wit aoon commence sowing and planting. The skillful medical knowledge of Dr. Moore, of East Portland1, and good miming pulled Mrs. Merrill through this awful spell of sickness, and is now past all danger and able to sit up i little at a time. A reunion of the Merrill family or curred since Mra. Merrill took sick. All her children came home with their families and made a fult family circle. Master Bruce Enyert had the mis fortune of hieing his arm a few days ago by an accidental discharge of a abot gun tn the Da mis of a younger brother. Bruce is a good boy who baa the sympathy of all his acqu.iut- anccs. Aaron Kinney, of the Clatskanie river, has discovered a coal mine in the Tide creek mountain, about six miles west from here. It is reported to be of first class quality, with a three foot vein on the surface. He is at present forming a company with some Portland capitalists to develop its mag nitude. Undoubtedly life day' is not far distant when the coal, iron and stone of this neighborhood will be one of our leading eiports. Deer Island possesses the finest kind of sandstone, and all it needs is proper handling to become marketable. County Surveyor A. B. Little has been doing considerable1 work in this neighborhood for the past four weeks, and platted a portion of Mr. Elzy George's place in town lots. So now we have a city and lots for sale. Mr. English is having his store well stocked and filling orders with the most promptness. But just at present he is making cash a specialty. Considerable indignation is felt here over tbe maonef in which the county commissioners acted over a dangerous bridge that is close try. Tbe bridge is 320 feet long and across a lake. The supervisor reported it in a dangerous condition and recommended it to be filled with rock and coarse gravel. He had a contractor make an estimation, both as to bridge and fill. The piling to be cut off Jar enough below the water surface to find sound timber. The bents are 20 feet apart and will require heavier timber than Where it is closer together. The estimations were for bridge over $1300, and for fill less than 1900. The commis sioners promised to examine the bridge but never put in an appoarancei and our bridge is vefy likely to be a trap for life and property for tome time, or nntil it falls into the lake and the road blocked for three or four months, like Tide ereek bridge waa a couple C ye ago.
