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

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.

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.
