. This U a republican legislature and
that party will be held responsible for
it acta. Be careful gentlemen the
people are watching you.
Coma out to Oregon you poor mor
tal of Nebraska and Kansas come
where crop never fail, where your
lock will lire through the greater part
of the winter without feeding.
The democrat made no fight for
peaker of the Oregon bouse of repre-
entativee. A good reaaon for thi is
that the democrat have not a member
in that branch of the legislature.
It ia a pretty well established fact
that a sidewalk will be built from thia
place to Houllon in the very near fu
ture. At the meeting held for that
purpoae last Monday evening there
prevailed an unanimity of opinion on
the subject, and the retult was that
there was some pretty effective work
accomplished.
Ln us join bands in making the
year 1895 bring more prosperity to
our community than wae ever before
enjoyed. Let personal animosity, spite.
prejudice, and petty jealousies be cast
aside, and let all unite in one grand,
universal effort for the common ben
efit of this entire section with its grand
aggregate of collosal resources.
. Ip Senator Gowan's bill becomes a
Law all the effort made by the people
of this county in regard to having the
county seat question submitted to vote
will prove of no avail, and those inter
ested will have been put to much ex
pense and trouble. It is more than
likely that the bill in which there i
so much interest taken will not be in
troduced until after the Go wan bill is
acted upon.
A IilTTLS encouragement can well be
given Meer. Orchard & Jones in their
effort to supply our town with better
water. Although the fact that St.
Helens people have always used river
water is no reason why they always
shall. We can be supplied with pure,
healthful mountain water at a nomi
nal cost, and for our future welfare we
insist that an effort be made in the di
rection of an improvement.
Thbai is a great difference in peo
ple. A Kansas man will stand in pov
erty and rags amid the ruin and ashes
of bis third corn crop, burned by the
hot winds of July, and swear to tbe
passing stranger that Kansas is the
best state in the Union, while the Ore
gon man who gets but forty bushels of
wheat to the acre one season, when he
wanted seventy five, and bad sixty
bushels tbe year before, will go on a
visit, dressed in a good suit of clothes,
and tell every man on the train that
Oregon is too dead to skin.
Thi people of Kansas and Nebraska
have been cursed by both food and
fuel famines of late years. Either the
grasshoppers or the drought have
brought on starvation every year,
while scanty fuel of any kind in Ne
braska now prevails, and surrounded
by mountains of snow, the people in'
some parts of the state are in the
throes of want and misery and suffer
ing. Last summer tbe drought de
stroyed all their hopes and prospects,
nothing being raised for man or beast.
They have been compelled to sell off
their stock to purchasers from Other
states or sea it die of starvation, be:
caue no crops were raised to feed it.'
XSPOBUCANS AND F1NANCS,
The republican party beingnomposed
of individuals is subject to difference
of opinion on any subject. This Is es
pecially true on the question of fi
nance. It is agreed that the republi
can parly has never declared itself in
favor of free silver. Neither has it de
clared for gold monomtUliitu. This
has only been done by individual
members of the party. The one is just
as much republicanism as the other,
and from time to time - the party has
changed from one to the other, as con
ditions seemed todiotateandasch ngt
in the membership of convention oc
curred. Thi Mist does not believe in abso
lute and unlimited coinage ol silver,
but it does believe that the product of
the silver mines in the United State
could be coined with profit to the na
tion. New legislation is always an
experiment, but since a remedy for
the present depression is supposed to
lie in the financial question, to coiu
the home product would test the the
ory, and in case it proved beneficial
then it would bo time enough to dis
cuss free ana unlimited coinage, in
which it is proposed to throw our
mint open to the products of the
world. To prove that the republican
party is not a proiiounced advocate of
the gold standard, we quote below the
financial plank of the republican state
platform unanimously adopted it the
state convention in Oregon in 1390:
"SixthThat recognising the fici
that the United States is the greatest
silver producing country in the world,
and that gold and silver were equally
the money of the constitution from
beginning of the republic until the
hostile legislation against silver, which
unduly contracted tbe circulating me
dium of the country ; and, recognising
that the great interests of the people
demand more money for use in the
channels of trade and commerce;
therefore, we declare ourselves in favor
of tbe free and unlimited coinage of
silver, and denouuee against any at
tempt to discriminate against silver as
unwise and unjust.
To say that the republican party is
not for both gold and silver is false.
The advocates of an increased coinage
of silver do not pretend to exclude
gold, but want tbe two metals on an
equal interchangeabilitv and good for
all obligations. This is republicanism
in its true sense.
Although the populists have been
in the saddle for six months in Jack
son county, and have been favored
with a salary law (which cuts down
expenses a great deal) and no unusual
heavy expenditures of any kind, there
is no change from affairs that existed
before these great reformers came into
power. The county officials now as
then, draw just as much salary as the
law allows them, and show no more
anxiety to do anything more for the
dear people than their predecessors
did. They put their relatives into of
fice whenever they can, notwithstand
ing their organs have much to say
about nepotism whenever the naughty
democrats indulge in it. If the pub
lic service has been improved it is uot
perceptible. Tbe people wilt pay jtisl
as much taxes as they ever did. Just
where the great improvement is which
tbe populists promised us is a decided
mystery. Tbey are ftrenuously en
deavoring to keep alive tbe prejudice
so successfully aroused against their
opponents in the past in order to re-
lain tbe reins of county government ;
but the people will ark a belter reason
for their retention when the proper
time comes. Jacksonville Time.
orops, and also afford those who de
pend on their daily labor an opportu
nity to earn a few dollars after the
opening of business in the spring. The
people of the state are looking to this
legislature for relief, and we see no
better point they could make than the
one suggested above.
Thi deal h of ex Governor S. F. Chad
wick at Salem, on Tuesday of last week
removes one of the beat-known politi
nal land matks of Oregon's early his
lory. Governor Chad wick was oue of
the best-known aud most brilliant po
litical lights of the state, and in tbe
early days of Oregon was closely con
nected with its welfare lit a political
way. From 1870 to 187fi he served as
secretary of state, and in the latter
year, by virtue of his office, became
governor of the slate when Governor
G rover was elected to the United Stales
senate. Since that time he. ha been
practicing law in Salem, and bag al
ways been prominent in matters of
public welfare.
Very likely the man from Ogden
knows whereof he speak in regard to
the old Portland-Astoria railroad, bill
it U our firm belief that at no very far
off day a railroad will parallel the N-
halem valley. There are too many
rich iron and co.tl deposits, too much
valuable timber in that country to lie
dormant much longer. Oue railroad
company is no', going toallow another
to slide in ahead aud monopolise the
buHiness from Astoria to Portland a
great leuglh of time, either. Our road
done, in our opinion, nie.tns the i n-
meoiate mnHrw-lion of another.
NxVBR tire of well-doing. Everybody
in this community should put their
alxraMer to the wheel and keep it re
volving in a manner bet calculated
to build up prosperous little town.
The country is behind us, bat we need
more people and better cultivation.
We should be ever ready to encourage
enterprise ever ready to recognise
with tbe most liberal generosity every
local enterprise having a tendency to
create new avenues of labor, and Ibe
general development of our phenomi-
nal resources. Give all enterprising
homeseekers a warm band of welcome.
SNAP SHOTS.
The year of 1894 has gone, and with
It many a glorious throng of happy
dreams. Its mark is on eaob brow;
its shadow in each heart. There is a
marked sameness about years as they
follow each otherand pass away. Each
year bas its happy dream, and leaves
marks on brows and shadows in hearts.
There is a wonderful commonality
about days and months and years, and
the experiences and sunshine they
bring, and tbe shadows they leave be
hind. Sure enough, there is nothing
new under tbe sun. Tbe year 1894
has fallen into line and taken its place
io tbe long train of years and is aow
numbered with the past. Its record
is closed and sealed, its words bave all
been spoken, its deeds all done. In
bringing the experience of our own
town and county nearer home we may
feel congratulated and thankful for
tbe favors and blessings received. A
more healthful moral tone is pervad
ing our business, social, and political
life in our county, and may the year
1895 bring torth marked improvement
and enterprise for our town and coun
ty, and a prosperous uplift be the re
sult of the present year.
The ever-taking man seldom gets
credit fir being wise, while the silent
man often gets that credit without de
serving it.
Coxey ia still trying to talk to
congress about non-interest-bearing
bonds. Night as well try to persuade
people to invest their money in a nonprofit-paying
business.
Tbe new two-cent stsmp ha come
into service. It is similar to the one
in use ft present, differing in color,
which is green, end being a little lar
ger than the red two-cent stamp.
A democratic congressional caucus
is almost a harmonious as a midnight
gathering of cats. St. Helens people
are well prepared to judge as lo the
amount of harmony that mast prevail.
Mark Twain was once asked by a
friend what he thought of tbe exist
ence of a heaven and a hell, to which
he replied : "I don't want to express
my opinion ; it is policy for me to keep
silent. I have friends at both places.
It is surely time to read the riot act
when a democratic congressman Mr.
Conn, of Indiana refers lo Mr. Cleve
land as the "toadstool emperor," wbo
has found out "that the earth revolved
whether he ordered it or not." Conn
won't eat any White House dinner
very soon.
The year 1895 will give eclipses,
three of tbe sun and two of the moon.
All the solar eclipse will be partial,
and none of them visible in the United
Stales. The lunar eclipse will take
place March 10 and September 3. The
solar, M.ircli 26, August 20, and Kc
tember 18. Willi the year ending on

COUNTY SKAT QUESTION.
As Looked at From a Soappoose
Standpoint.
To Tax Xditom. Th many people of
Scappoos aa a unit are opposed to a re-location
of the county seat at th present
time. We re free from pelty Jealousies,
nd a deslr for leltlih gain, and oluttu
good business-like reason for our stand
in this important matter.
In the first place, w do not aspire to
claim th county seat. However, our mod
esty doe not forbid us from stating thai
w possas a many advantage as two or
three other place that do. Ws recognise
Hie fact that this ia a grave move, and
mistake made in undu hnte will entail
much trouble and oust upon the future of
the county. While w know that 8t. Hel
ena i not centrally located, it possesses the
largest number of advantage of any town
In the county. It has both river and rail
transportation, and a telegraph orfiYe. No
other point in the county besides Qoble
oun possibly claim these necessary requis
ite, we claim that for the above reusons
alone 81. Helens should be rettiliied as th
capital of our coanty. low to th other
point that are to be Considered.
Rainier is probably the iiiokI prominent
aspirant for the honor, and ha but one
potudbl claim over St. Ht L nt Hist of be
ing a little nearer tbe middle of the tlver
aide of the county. But even thin claim is
more than counterbalanced by the added
distance from tit populous settlements of
Uppur Kehalttiu. It htt awalr eoiumuni
outtonand nothing else; iio railroad, no
telegrHph, and small prospeuU. However,
I he peoe of this county are not prepared
lo bank on the prospect of any of Us in
itietit towns, much less are w anxious to
boom somebody' real estate at county ex
pense. As for Clutkanie, it is a lively little in
land burg with few- r i l ilin than Rnluler,
aud ii much too far from the center of the
county and from t,ranxpotitlion facilities
to en -sue our notion coilderatton.
L, lying -idt thf o'.uiins of thee peiitl
print, we de-Ire t- euipha ie the Mean ial
qut-tion i.,vulv- d Iri a ihan.-e or county
scat. Any ob-crver will know that a
rhaiiite of cou t house will enluil a large
cost to our a! tadv heavi'y taxed people.
N. nuttier what itiducemi-nta artohVred
as a bait by enterpii ing contestants, the
exienae will ultimately rail largely upon
tbe people At tbix time we ure not fi
nancially able to build a suitable ronrt
house, and common sense would dictate
that there is ne us building until we are
able to put up a substantial structure. We
claim further, that the near future will
bring about great changes In our county;
that th mine and limber will b utilized;
that railroads and telegraph will pierce
our remotest point and that many new
towns and village will spring up a nat
ural result, and it is reasonable to expect
that a center of business and population
will manifest Itself and than we can agitate
the question of a county seat with a due
regard for future prosperity. In conclu
sion, we will state that when those things
shall bave come about Bcappoose will Join
in with a majority of our people hi locating
and establishing a permanent county seat
and in promoting any and ail schemes for
the betterment of our affairs; but until
the time is ripe we will etand agalost any
undue haste iu the matter.

It is generally believed that a law
will be passed at this session of the
legislature providing for the payment
of taxes in two iuslallments part in
the spring and the remainder in the
fall. Such a law as has been repeat
edly stated in The Mist would greatly
relievo taxpayers in these times of de
pression and scarcity of money. The
present time for the payment of taxes
is the season when there is the least
money in circulation. But should the
time be extended until later in the
summer it would give farmers sn op
portunity to realize on their early ! Up the Nehalem valley.
OLD ASTORIA-PORTLAND ROAD
Patterson, of Ogden, Says Capital
will not Take Hold of It.
"I bave been looking over the route
of the old Portland and Astoria rail
road," said Mr. A. Patterson, of Ogden,
to a Sun reporter, in Portland, last
Saturday. "I am here in the interest
of the First Nation bank of Ogden. I
bave exerted every effort in endeavor
ing to arrange matters to complete ibe
construction of this road, but without
avail. Tbe road was incorporated
about three year ago, the right-of-way
was secured, and nearly 17 miles of
the road graded, which is in good con-'
dition today. Messrs. Corey Bros., of
New York, were the contractor who
constructed these first 17 miles, and
tbey hold a lien on the company for
the services performed. The right of
way was through the Nehalem valley,
one of the most fertile valleys in the
state, and rich in field of coal. Owing
to tbe scarcity of money and tbe re
luctance of Eastern capitalists to in
vest sny money in the scheme, the
property, such as there is of it, in my
opinion, will, of . necessity, be aband
oned. I visited Astoria a few day
ago on this matter, and found the peo
ple in that city very enthusiastic over
the new road, the contract for which
was recently let to Bonner A Ham
mond. The new road will skirt the
Colombia river from Astoria to Goble,
and I am of the opinion that a branch
of the line will be constructed from
some point, say about St, Helens, to
