Newspaper Page Text4 SUBSCRIPTION, $1.00 PER YEAR. St. Hklkns, Octobsk 21, 1E92, DOUBTFUL STATES TkS rotten little state of Nevada, which it owned by the millionaire nil in king Senator Wm. M. Stewart, the oolv "state" which the peoph party, With the help of the democrats, have a fielitme chance to carry. .v with the helpof S ewarland the demo crats it ii doubtful whether Hevada will ote for the "calamity' eleciora. The democrats will vote the people ticket in Idaho and North Dakota, but the chances for the republican BiicctK in both of these states U rra onably good. There is no other state where the Weaver ticket has any show at all. Outside of the three state named the fight will be between the republicans and the democrats with the chances strongly in favor of the election of Harrison and "Reid. The South is solidly democratic, as usual, and the' North is republican, with the exception probably of the states that voted for Cleveland four years ago, and with a slight chance that Weaver will carry one of the three states above named with the aid of the democrats. ASTORIA RAILROAD AGAIN. President Clark, of the Union Pa cific, and party, who were in Astoria Sunday looking into railroad matters, gave some evidence to an Oregonian reporter that his company was inter ested in the Astoria road proposition. While be did not say definitely that his mission to the sea was for the pur pose of railroad extension, yet he did not deny that the Union Pacific was thinking of purchasing the Portland A Astoria road, or at least running a line down the Columbia river to Ocean connection. There was nothing in bis remarks but what led to bis reali sation of the fact that it was necessary for hi company to extend its road to Astoria. The gentleman further said : "Work on the Portland Pnget Sound branch will be resumed in the near future. When completed the road will be used by both the Union Pacific and Great Northern, each company having a half interest in it." Columbia Cocsty shows 1 1,911,284 in taxable property; exemptions and debt, $611,770; net for taxation, $1, 299,624. Land is assessed at $3.50; bones at $12; cattle, $17.25. The tix on $1,299,624 at 2 per cent, will amount to $32,490 60 for the year 1S92. This is a large increase over last year and almost double that of four years ago, which goes to show that Colum bia county is growing at a rapid rate. Asa matter, of comparrison we cite the condition of Morrow cocnty, as follows: Total taxable property, $1, 916,737, or over $5,000 more than Columbia; exemption and debt, $760, 385, or $149,000 more than Columbia; net for taxation, $1,156,352, or $143, 272 less than Columbia. This com parison proves conclusively that the people's interests in Columbia county are as well guarded as in any other county of the state, and better than some of them ; that the assessor has done his duty in gathering and sum marizing the property of the county that the taxes for all pur-poses may be collected on all property at a fair valuation. We ask the populists those who are in the bappy posses sion of their faculties to read these jure carefully. ; Upon the accession of the republican party to power came the restoration of the policy of the fathers. A highly protective system, supervision of the currency by the creation of banks, and the appropriation of money on a colossal scale for works of internal im provement, went hand in band with the great struggle to uphold the gov ernment. With the democracy thirty years were enough to render the na tion a wreck. What has been the re sult ot thirty years of republican rule the great measures it inaugurated remaining unchanged, the only pur pose of the amendments thereto be ing to increase their efficiency and value? Thirty years in a country like our own is enough to test the value of any measure. Upon the experience of the past our system of banks and of protection must stand or fall. If the past does not fully vindicate them no argument can. And what have been the results of the thirty years of re publican rule? A degree of prosper ity in which all classes alike share, and of which history bas no example. The evidence bas been sufficiently set forth an increase of products and wealth in a ratio five-fold greater than that of our numbers; a Heady and im mense decline in prices of all articles, particularly manufactures; a steady and enormous increase in rates of wages, So that a day's work brings twice as much to the laborer as it did fifteen or twenty years ago. Loxo ago the democrats of Oregon split and one wing of the party called the others ''pizarinctums." Now Pen noyer bas bolte J, and he calls the regu lar democrats "Clevelandilcs" and 'bob tailed politicians." It was ba i onough, in the days tbst tried men's ! souls, to be a "pisarinctuin," but it is worse and more of it to be 'bob-tailtd politician." Tho governor deliberately slashes of the tails of the creatures who elected him, and then iashes them around tin) ring and laughs at their condition. This is Ingratitude piled mountains high, and is a punishment suited to the crime of having elected such a demagogue as Sylvester reu noycr to be tho states chief executive. A man whose disposition leads t "rule or ruin" ts not a servant ot the people. PRICES IS iS6l AND llf 189!. An Indiana farmer gives the result of his investigations to the Indianap olis Journal as fullows: "Having in my possession an oM daybook, in which are recorded the sales of a retail general store in Greenfield, Hancock county, Ind., during the year 1851, curiosity led me to make some com parisons between the prices then and now. The following lists of ten items which the farmers sold and ten which they purchased, with the accompany ing prices in 1851, and taken promis cuously from this daybook, and rep resent sales and purchases made at various times during the year, and, al though, of course, the prices then, as now, varied somewhat with the season, in no instance do I find them lower for things purchased by the farmers nor higher for the shings they sold than here given. I also give the prices of the same items here today : PRICES BBCEIVED BY FARHEBB. 1851. 1992.

For instance, I find the following record : 'To one grain shovel, to be paid for with one bushel of wheat,' Such shovels today are sold for 75 cents." It is a waste of time to talk to a mau who will make an assertion with out the facts to substantiate the same. The world is, so to speak, full of just such people. The Same Here. Judee McBride bas won golden opinions from the people and the bar bv the judicial fairness and ability which be bas displayed during the term that is now drawing to a close. He bas dispensed justice intelligently nd wisely. His decisions in matters of legal practice have been given promptly and clearly. As the result, few "exceptions" have been noted and no discontent has been manifested by litigants or lawyers. The judge has done his utmost to restrict court ex penses and has expedited U!lSifies by evening sessions. He has held voluble wiUiegsarin check and at times re strained counsel for their own good. In weighty suits, as well as in affairs of less account, Judge alcana nas paid close attention to details and has imparted cheerfulness to the dullest cases. Astoria n . Judge McBride bas shown the peo ple that he was the court in fact, and that no lawyer or no combination of lawyers can run the court. His de cisions are quick and to the point, thus expediting matters a great deal compared with our former court, and at the same time no one questions the fairness of his rulings. His undivided attention is devoted to bis duties, which is gratifying to the taxpayers. Dusan-Kyser vs. Meaerre Bros. In the case of Duzan A Kyser vs. Meserve Bros., which occupied the at tention of the circuit court all day Friday, and Saturday the jury, after being out about half an hour, returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiffs. This case grew out of the purchase of a sawmill by Meserve Bros, in 1890. at that time Duzan A Kyser being in possession of the mill, which was held subject to a mortgage by J. M. Arthur A Co., in Portland, fur the machinery, amounting to $1,449.50. It seems thaw after some talk with Duzan A Kyser by one of the brothers, the final pur chase was effected with Arthur A Co. whereby the defendants in the cane were permitted to take possession of the property and remove it to another location. The price first talked of by Used in Millions of Homes praiOES rf?am Baking the Moserres with Duxaa A Kyser was $2,000, $1,600 of which was to satisfy the mortgage of Arthur A Co., and $500 to go ro the plaintiffs, Dusan A Kyser. This purchase Was not made, ixnd later on the property was bought from Arthur A Co. direct, their lien on the machinery having matured, the purchase not including anything ex cept that part of tho mill covered by Arthur & Co.'s lien, and this certain property was all that was removed from the site, Duzan & Kyser being present at all times during the mov ing and forbidding the (deserves re moving anything except such articles as had come from Arthur A Co, A Cars lor Cholera, There U no r.se of any one suffor i ig with the cholera when Chamber luin'l Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy can be procured. It will give relief in a few minutes and cure in a short time. I have tried it and know W. H. Clinton, Helmetta, N. J. The epidemic at Melmetta was at first believed to be cholera, but subsequent investigation proved it to be a violent form of dysentery, almost as danger ous as cholera. This Remedy was need there with great success. For sale by Edwin Roes, druggist CIRCUIT COURT. A Long Session and Many Impor tant Cases. rrcecnt Hon. T. A. Mcltride. Judge; Hon. W. N.

In the Circuit Court of the State ot Oregon, for Columbia County. Toths Honorable Thomas A. McBride, Judge of the above named Coortt The undersigned,, your grand Jury for the October (1S92) term of sahl eour, re spectfully report as follows: We have tiaminod into U charges of crime bronchi before us and htrve returned indictments In all cases where we thought the evidence was sufficient to support a conviction. We have hoard no complaints against ths various county officers, and as far as we could learn they are all properly and offl- ctently performing the duties of their re spective unices, Ws did not deem it advis able to attempt to make a full examina tion of the books and accounts ot the county officers. To maks a thorough ex amination ot the same would take more time than ws thought practicable for this grand Jury to remain In session, and we were unwilling to make a hurried examina tion ot said books and accounts, which would be unsatisfactory and of no benelit to the public. As ths county officers are required to settle with the county court, we leave the matter with that body. We are Informed that ths county court has allowed ths insurance on the court house to expire. We recommend that the county court insure the same against fire in some good, reliable insurance ooinpany. And now, having completed our labors, sreask to be dlschotged. M E. Moaoax, M. O. BavAMT, C. W. Mosuaa, Jons R. CaoWK, Alokzo F. Adams, William Avdsbsoh, A F. McDosialoi T Rfaeh Risk It is not n n usual for colds contract ed in the fall to hang on all winter. In such cases catarrh or chronio bronchi tis are almost sure to result. A fifty cent bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will cure any cold. Can you afford to risk so much for so small an amount? This remedy is intended especially for bad colds and croup and can always be depended upon. For sale by Edwin Ross, druggist. CLATBKAN1E. Hiss Nora Ccnyers is in Oregon City, probably for tbe winter. . W. R.Holmes, of Upper Clatskanie, had a child badly burned last Satur day by its clothing accidentally catch ing fire. One more blacksmith added to the town last week, but too young yet to handle a sledge. Tbe public schools, under Professor Cleeton's direction, are making prep arations to properly observe Colum bus Day Friday, liie schools here expect to be joined by those of Marsh land and the Barr district and have the exercises participated in by all the schools. Rehearsals are going on this week and an interesting time is ex pected. Several of our citizens were reqnired to be in attendance at court last week, either as jurors or witnesses, and most of them put on their white shirts to show the people at the county seat that we have starch as well as brains in this city. The Portland Exposition has also drawn largely upon Clatskanie for support during the past ten days, and a list of all who have visited it from this place would take up the balance of this column. The steamer's regis try book would give names to any wanting to find them. Eour head of work cattle, with yokes, chains, etc., were sold at sheriff's sale on Monday last. It did not seem to be a (rood day to realize much out of that kind of property. The oxen sold for about tbe value of hide and tollow, while the yokes and chains ought to have brought more at a pawn brokers. The town has been embellished, re cently with several large-sized pictures of Harrison and Reid, which can be seen in several of our business bouses. They are good campaign pictures, fur nished, we understand, by W. II. uon yers, Chas. Meserve, of the Oregon City Enterprise, spent a lew days in town the first of this week visiting friends. A party of ladies was seen escorting tbe minister over the bridge last Sat urday, and the nnusual sight causing some comment, it was learned upon inquiry that they were all going along to lower Beaver to assist in making pastoral calls that day. Since their return next evening it is also learned that they scattered out somewhat be fore reaching their destination, fearing that the sight of so large a number traveling together would terrorize the people they were going to see and that they would find the doors locked and the chickens all carefully con cealed under waehtubs. Their pre caution in this matter was wise, and secured them very generous and hos pitable entertainment among the ex cellent people in that locality. Mrs. N. Tingle was a passenger on the Shaver Friday, returning from Oregon City, where she has spent the last two months. A MORAL- BIBD. There's a lesson to be learned, I've beard, In the actions of each timid bird. The ostrich o'er the desert ran, Far from tbssinful haunts of man; Yet, longing with a searching eye For some pet folly to descry , She cams upon a little shed "Oh, this can not be right," she said; "Man must Indeed be very vile, To bide bis actions 'neath this pile." And then she started to relate Her find. Bat it was all too late. The huntsman, hiding just at hand, Now close pursues her o'er the sand . The moral bird now tries a spurt The more pursued tbe more throws dirt Until, at last, when brought to stand , She bid her head down In the sand . Ths moral of this tale, I've heard, T were better for a moral bird, In things it does not understand, To keep its bead down in the sand, Lest the curiosity that led In shams should cause to hide its head.
