An IiHoreattng New Letter Arrive at the Pre Hour, . Vkrnonia, Or., Jan. 10, 189-i. Editor Mist. It has been a long time ainno we saw any items in Til Mist from this place, and if you will allow us a por tion of your space we will attempt to send you a few Items occasionally, especially those Items that will prove of interest to the uowa-loving public. It should be the aim of the local paper to publish the local news, but ih the Vernonia paper puts all its anergics into politics, we Nehalemites wilt J..ive to took elsewhere for the local news, Mid atTHi Misrhas nearly, if not quite, as larire a circulation in Nclialent rs the local paper, we conclude to send our locals to St. Helens to be published. They may be a few hours late by the time they tret back here, but nevertheless the people will hear of them. At this writing there are about six incites of snow ut tint poiut. Last iSuturdiiy there were several inches more of the) beautiful, but the recent rains reduced that depth, mid the jiroepecl now is that the earth will be black as ever within a few days, tiuless the weathnr should take a colder turn. Thursday, January 4th, the mercury Ht Vernonia stood IS degrees above xero, Tom Brink and Ora Lavender made an unsuccessful tour of Pebble creek last week, returning Sunday. Mrs. Sietleltnan, an clderlt lady liv books, stationery, fuel, and light tucirefor lor the sheriff, county olert, and treasurer, or other county officers! 3rd, to establiah.vacate, or alter county roads or highways within the county or any other ueoewnry ot relating thereto, In the manner provided by law; 4th, to provide fur the erection and repairing within 'he county of public bridges upon any road or highway es tablished by public authority I oth, to licame ferries and tlx the rata ot ferriage; Sth, to grant arocery and all other licenses authorised by law where the authority to do so is not expressly given to some other tribunal; 7th, to asllmatc and determine the amount of revenue to be raised lor county purposes and to levy the rate necessary therefor together with the rate re quired by law for any other purpose, and cause the same to be placed In the hands ot the proper oflleer for collection; Stn, to provide lor the maintenance and employment ol the county or transient paupers in the manner provided by law; Sth, to have the general care and manage ment ol the county property, funds, and bus! aess, where the law does not otherwise expresslj prorlde; 10th, to compound for or releass in whole or in part any debt or damages arlsli eut ol contract due the county, and lor the sole use thereof upon such tortus as may be Just aud equitable." From the above, which Is all the law delegating powers to the comity court, it will be sees the county court has no power make anybody comply with the law, and power to Indict anyone or try anyone for an of fense or violation of law, hut who has? IM the law answer. Section 973 ol Hill's Annotated Laws of Oregon says: "The district attorney each dtstrtct is the public prosecutor therein. Section 97 says; "He shall attend the terms ol all courts having Jurisdiction of public offenses within his district, aud conduct on behalt of the state all prosecutions for such offenses therein. Section liM says: "The district attorney may submit an Indictment to the grand Jury in any case when he has good reason to believe that crime has been committed which is triable within the county." (Section 12AS says: "The district attorney, when required by the grand Jury, most prepare indictments or presentments for them in relation to their duties, etc' It will be seen from the above law that the district attorney is the man and only man who has control of the whole affair. Now let as see II the grand Jury had anything to do in the mat ten under the law. Section 13(2 of Hilt's An notatad Laws of Oregon says: "The grand tury has power and it is their dutv to inquire into all ill plant yield is iug on Beavor creek, about four miles crimM wiUed OT trillble ln tha Munty from vernonia. met with a sad aeci donl lust Friday morning.

Kibbey, of Upper Nehalem, who was so severely injured by being gored by one of McOauiels' cattle last summer, was tu Vernonia one day last week. "Happy Jock" is proving himself to tie the best mail carrier on the Uoul- toti-Vernuuia route since the days of Aiike Pertier. Jack arrives about 5 o'clock, and you never bear a kick. liev. It. D. 8trevffeller left for St. Helens and Portland last week. L. W. Van Dyke and Gns H. Bynon, of the the Nehalem Journal, visited bl. Helens last week, V. W. Alien Las invented and ap plied for patent on an appliance for safely hitching horses and cattle. It is a good arrangement and agents will be working all over the county in a eb rt lime. The machines will be manufactured in Vernonia. A mod die of the contrivance is on exhibition at McJJutt Bros.' store. It Governor rennoyer would come to Vernonia be would rind all the peo ple or tins part ot Columbia county in good spirits, plenty to eat, and plenty to wear, aud plenty of feed for cattle. Kthalemites do not depend upon ruta uagas ana dog salmon for their daily diet; that day is past and our people are living as well today as are people in more populous sections of the country. Vernonia bus not the usual number of unemployed this winter that has characterized other cities in tbe state. Free soup bouses are unkuown, rail rond rumors create no excitement, and everybody in happy. - VVitlimg Thk Mist a prosperous new year, and promising you that this is nut the lust lime you will hear from uie, I sni yours till I ccme again. . A.V.P. present them to the court, either by present ment or indictment as provided in this chapter.1 Section 1251 says: " In addition to the power and duty prescribed by section 1242, the grand jury has power and it is their duty to inquire, 1st, into the condition and management of every public prison in the county, and 2nd, into the condition and management of the offices per taining to tbe courts of justice In the county.1 Thus it will be seen that the district attorney and the grand juries ot Columbia county are alone and solely responsible lor the sheriffs not settling as required by law. They alone had the right authority and duty to enforce the law, and we can safely aay that if they had dona their duty we would have na defaulting ex-sheriffs in our county. We are sorry they did not hare the courage to acknowledge their fault, but the people ol Columbia county are not idiots nor fool and will not be deceived by their attempt to shirk the burden they should bear, but in the minds of the people the burden will rest where it legally and rightfully belongs. As to our lees. oar bills are on file and can be examined, and if any one questions them as being too high or improper, we are willing to have them pub lished and show what they are for and let the people Investigate for themselves. Knowing that we have not charged as much mileage lor coming from tbe same place to St. Helens as one of the last grand jurymen did, and that our bills are all regular, legal, and correct.

The county court raphes to the district attor ney and tbe misrepresentations of the grand Jury iu their report at the adjourned October term of circuit court, MM; It is with a feeling of deep regret that we en ter into any controversy, or attempt to criticize the actions of anyone, h i! the district attorney, linn. W. S. Birrift. aa I the grand Jury of the October term of the circuit court, 1893, so far forget their duties and legitimate powers, or were ignorant ol them , that they make use ol their prortnee to males a report to the circuit jj tgeaiitl to abuse the county court and mis represent the comity commissioners. Not sat isfied with that they go further, and, by impll ration, mis-epreseat the law and attempt to shirk the duties which the law imposes on Die Xietrlt-t attorney and grand Jury and, by mis representation, saddle them on the eonnty court. while in fact and iu lac the county court could not do what they say it should have done, but a the contrary It is the auty of the district at torney aad grand Jury to do what they say the rouaty court should have done, ss we will show by quoting the law of the State ol Oregon. we lesl that we are driven to this in de fense ol ourselves; our character, our honor, and our Integrity, as the report of tha grand Jury is a public record standing against us and has been published in our local papers showing all the people the charges made against us. U we do not refute these false charges aud resent the insult It may be considered that we ate to blame as ebarged, and we know of no other Way to set ourselves aright than to explain the matter as it is, to the people, hence this article. The grand Jury, in its report, says: "We, since ISM, have had a statute in this state requiring trie sheriff to pay over all money collected on any taxllst In his bands to the treasurer ol the county, once a month, taking duplicate receipts. one ol which he shall tile with the clerk ol the eoanty court immediately thereafter. This time aas recently been reduced to once a week). If this statute had beeu enforced by the county oourt. in our opinion there would be no short age la the accounts of tbe ex-sheriffs of this eounly, and in our opinion the eonnty court ol this county has been derelict in their duty In not requiring the sheriff to pay over, the tax money collected and file their receipts there ion as required by law." Now, let us see what are the powers aud duties ol the county court. Section fX ot Hill's Anuotated Laws of Ore gon explain, therefore we quote It. "Section The county court hai the authority pertain ing to county commlsslnners rn transact county business, hit is: ltt, o provide lor t:ie erec toi and repairing of cour. horses, jails, and other nei'flaxury public buildings for the use ol tbeeiauty; ;j'!,t provide oSccssnd furniture. 16 .
