Too Maut Road. We am in re
ceipt of a communication from Cow
Camp in which the writer complain
of there being too many road laid out
and not improved sufficiently to meka
them passible. Our correspondent U
correct in this matter. There aire, in
deed, too many new road laid out and
located without aofBclent meana to
improve them, thu dividing up tb
work on so many roada that none are
what they ought to be and would be
If the work was mors centralised.
8orjio Br Ihvutioatkd. It is said
that instead of tbe garbage from Port
land being delivered and consumed by
the crematory at Rooky Point, a great
deal of it has been dumped into the
Willamette slough and allowed to float
down stream or rot at Its bottom. How
ever, these charges have been made
and from tbe quality of the water in
the slough below Rocky Point it is
reasonable to suppose the statement is
correct. In any event the matter is of
uffiolent oonsequence to justify en in
vestigation. RioitTBRBO Stock Pay. Mr. U.
West, of 8capoooee, is Riving consider
able attention to blooded stock, prln
eipally Jersey oattlaand Poland-China
hogs. Mr, West baa been handling
took nearly all hia life and bis come
to the conclusion that to make a suc
cess of stookraising it must be done
by feeding nothing butgrades, and con
sequently he ha imported to hi slock
farm some of the higheet grade regis
tared stock to be bed, 'from the lead
ing stock farm of the Eaat, which can
be aeen at hi farm at any time.
Rbsumrd Oprratioh. Tbe mill at
Mooreaville, atter an idleness ot many
months, is again in operation, and the
hills and valleys thereabout resound
with the shrieks of Ihe whistle and Ihe
hum of machinery that hae long been
silenced under the enormous weight
of business depression. Just how long
the mill will continue to run we did
not learn, but the fact that the gonial
and rustling H. B. Bntthwiok is at the
helm carries along with it the snur
noe that so long ai there la a chance
to keep even operation will continue.
A 8,tatb Cihiui. The oonitltntion
.of Oregon provide that an enumera
tion of the people of the data (hall be
made every ten yean, beginning with
1895. The statute further provide
that thl .enumeration ahall be made
by the .county assessors, beginning
ot later than May 10th, and that, be
Ides enumerating tbe people of Ihe
state, they shall classify them by. age
, V" collect various simple
statistics of production and industry.
The assessors are to make returns to
the county clerks, and these to the
secretary -ot state, who is to furnish
blank forms for tbe enumeration, and
who also must declare the result. Pen
Ida are.imposed upon assessors and
olerirs Veho fail to perform the duties
imposed upoa thsui by thii law.
iumnvm thb Tow. The proprie
tor of the town lit of St. Helen
land In their own light by not reduc
ing the pride of lot. At the present
tlma kits hare are held too high and
cannot be sold until a marked reduo-
tion 1 mad. Tbe prloes are today a
high as they should be in city of
5000 population, and as a result there
i no demand. There must be a start
ing point for every city to Improve,
and this starting point is not reached
through high prioes. As a town grows
in population and business value of
really grow, proportionately. The one
I essential to the other, and must
come up, If at all, together. It i ap
parent to everyoooy who nave waioiiea
the growth of citie that one improve
ment enoourai and stimulate an
other( but In all case the degree of
progress rest with the town site
owner. Just how long this state of
affair will continue In St. Helen is
not known, but it is evident that the
party owning the town site will have
to offer some inducement and attempt
some improvement of the property
before there will be a demand for real
estate in this place. As matien now
itand property ia absolutely ansaiaoie
and will continue so until a more
liberal disposition is shown by those
who own the property.
ThatPlakx Wal. Another meet
ina wae held Monday nieht to further
ooneide the proposition to build Ibe
walk between 81. Helens sna Houiion,
and also to receive the report of the
committee to view and survey out the
route, which waa submitted by James
Muckle, as follow: "We recommend
proposed and most feasible route, find
ing the distance to be 6910, which
would require 23.640 feet of lumber to
put In two-plunk walk; wv further And
that tbe proposed route is prnciicable
and the walk can be put in very easily
with very slight grade, and same
would be on a street almost the entiie
distance to the end of the 8t. Helens
claim." It waa slated at the meeting
that Mr. Howard would furnish the
lumber on the ground for 17.50 per
thousand. A motion wa made by Mr.
Dillard and adopted, that a committee
of three be appointed with wer to
make necessary arrangement for
clearing the right-of-way, contracting
for lumber, and superintending tbe
work on Ihe ground, with the u nder
tending ibal the shortest route pos
sible, from Ihe lower end of Blakes
ley's garden, should be chosen. On
motion W. H. Dolmau wae made col
lector and treasurer tor the funds sub
scribed. Tbe meeting then adjourned.
To Broulatb Fbb. A bill is now
pending in the legislature which pro
vides tbat in any suit or action brought
upon a promissory note, contract, or
other obligation, created either by
agreement or etatutory provision,

Appeal to Supreme Court. Atlor
nevs Dillard A Cole bare been served
with notices that an appeal will be
taken to the supreme court in the case
of Tetam A Bo wen vs. O. A. Massie,
l. al. The property involved in the
raae is the sawmill property at Danby,
this eounty, which Massie, during bis
term of office, as sheriff, levted upon
and sold at sheriff's sale, to Muckle
Bros, for a atipulated sum. Tat urn A
Bowen brought suit in the circuit
court to recover the property for the
purchase price, but tbe case waa de
ckled against them. They will now
lake it to the supreme court and ask
that tbe deciaion of tbe lower eonrt be
reversed, and tbe case be remanded for
new trial.
A Bio Deai We were informed by
a reliable gentleman tbia week tbat a
big realty transfer is on the tapis, in
which many will be pleased to bear of
its early consummation. Two gentle
men from the East are negotiating for
the Musgrove place, on Sanvies island,
and should the sale be made there will
be severs! thousand dollars involved.
The intending purchasers, it is said,
will bring nearly a bundrvd head oi
registered slock with them, and engage
extensively in the dairy business. In
rase the purchase ia made several
thousand dollar will be expended in
modern improvement.

to improve the service.
