T. ne(,EIfs, OBEOOH, FEB. tS.
Th present congress will end in
few days, and it is noticeable that no
one suggests that it longer exist.
What Columbia county most needs
is a re rival of business, but the ques
tion as to how to bring this condition
about is the pussier.
Thb populist sheet down at Clatska
nie, with its 97 subscribers, seems to
worry a great deal about the success of
the republican party. Never mind,
brother, the republican party does not
need any populist assistance.
- Oct of about 500 bills introduced
into the legislature at this session it is
not likely that more than one out of
seven of them will ever reach our
statute books. This, perhaps, is just
as well, for a large majority of them
would be of no general benefit to the
state at large.
Bknjamih Harrison was able to ex
tend 125,000,000 4 per cent bond
three years ago at 2 per cent, but G ro
ver Cleveland has to pay 3 per cent
for the money he is borrowing now.
The difference between republican and
demooratio credit ordinarily is not so
great as this, but it is always great
enough to be noticeable.
Whxk Harrison was inaugurated in
1889 the Interest-bearing public debt
was $889,853,090, and when he retired
in 1893 it was only 9585,029,100. On
February 1, 1895, it had increased to
$684,323,710, and when the next bonds
are sold it wiU amount to $746,723,710.
These figures tell a story that the aver
age citizen can easily understand.
Yocvo'a bill which passed the house
last Tuesday provides that state, school
and military taxes shall be paid only
with lawful money of the United States
and excludes county warrants. It i
hardly possible the bill will pass the
senate since the time is short, and
such a rush of more important legis
lative matters now pending. Hereto
fore county warrants have been legal
tender for taxes in the county where
issued, and about tax-paying time
they have been bought np at a dis
count and turned in to the sheriff at
their face for taxes, thus preventing
warrants of prior issue being redeemed
with the cash, which, if warrants were
not taken, would be paid out for the
warrants issued, in their regular otder.
Again, it may be said that the county
should not have the right to refuse to
take its own psper for any obligation
which it has already contracted.
There are two sides to the case, and it
is a difficult one to adjust.
Oif the witnesststand in Chicago a
few days ago Eugeue V. Debs testified
that for years he was editor of the Lo
comotive Firemen's Magazine at a
salary of $4000, and that, on the or
ganisation of the American Railway
Union, he became its president at a
salary of $9000 a year. This is the
man who professes such friendship for
the workingmen and claims to work
solely to improve their condition.
While pretending to help the workers'
condition, be drew from their small
earnings a greater salary than that of
cabinet officer and lived in luxury
on the contributions of bis misguided
followers. In order to. keep the money
coming in, he had to make a show of
activity, and so stirred up the great
strike ot last summer, in which the
workingmen were so badly worsted.
There is a calculating selfishness
among these professional agitators
thai does infinite harm to tae cause
of labor.

The largest part of ths afternoon session
on Tuesday was consumed In the reading
of Burke's long bill prividlng for the collec
tion ot taxes. This work was finished at
3:45 o'clock, and then Hofer inquired
whether the purpose of the bill was to levy
a tax upon all church property, except on
the grounds upon which houses of worship
were located, and also to tax educational
institutions. Receiving an answer in the
affirmative from Long, chairman of the
committee on assessment and taxation, be
moved that the bill be recommitted, and
the section in question be amended so ss to
exempt a mansion or parsonage and the
personal property of all educational, liter
ary and scientific institutions , and so much
of the real estate as may be actually neces
sary for the proper location of the neces
sary buildings to be used exclusively for
educational, literary and scientific pur
poses, from taxation.
Sehlbrede emended this, plscing the limit
of college grounds at 20 acres, and the
amendment was accepted by Hofer. 8mltb
of Josephine offered an amendment pro
viding tbat deductions be allowed for a fair
and honest indebtedness owing i thin the
state, upon presentation of satisfactory evi
dence, such ss the names of creditors, etc.
The bill was re-committed with instruc
tions to a committee to insert the amend
ments snd report Immediately, which was
done. Coon moved to strike out the line
listing the stock of nurserymen, grow
ing or otherwise, as merchandise, which
wss also done.
Amendments were adopted and the bill
was placed upon Its final passage, and
passed by a vote of 50 to 3; absent, seven.
Wanted for Forgery.
Hiffssx, Or., Feb. 17. D. C. Boyd, who
has been in the employ of the Patterson
Publishing Company for the past six weeks,
hss skipped for parts unknown. A warrant
Is out for his arrest, and if found be will no
doubt be sent to Sslem. He forged three
checks on the company for a total amount
of $55. Two of the checks were cssbed st
the bank. The other one for $25 was csshed
by Robert Krick, a saloon keeper here, and
refused st the bsuk. This caused an inves
tigation, with the shove result. As Boyd
is well known to the newspaper fraternity
throughout the state, It is thought that he
cannot escape. It is reported here tbst
this Is not the first time he has resorted to
crooked measures to replenish his ex
chequer.
Wholesale Thievery.
Dknybb, Col., Feb. 19. The com
mittee appointed by the legislative as
sembly to investigate the conduct of
the retiring state officers are unearth
ing some of the most wholesale thiev
ing schemes ever known in any coun
try. The committee have at last dis
covered that the populist state officers
stole even the carpets from the state
house, and appropriated them to their
private use and for their mends, and
purchased a second supply of new car
pets for the slate house again. This
same thing is said to have been done
with certain articles of furniture, in
cluding typewriters and large quanti
ties of stationery. The investigation
will prove the death blow to populism
in Colorado.
Bonding Property.
Astoria, Feb. 19. It is stated here
today that Bonner & Hsmmohd, of
Missoula, have bonded the property of
the Astoria Packing Company in this
city. The property consists of three
blocks on which stands the remains of
the mammoth cannery, burned last
summer.' M.J. Kinney, when asked
for information as to the consideration,
declined to be interviewed on the sub
ject. It is known, however, that for
some time he has had in contempla
tion the erection of a new cannery on
bis property at New Astoria.
POINTED AND PERTINENT,
Rlitean million dollars Is what ths people
of this oountry will hsvs to psy for Mr.
Cleveland's attempt to bulldose congress
into suthorlsing gold bonds, Mr. Cleve
land will have the distinction of having
been our most costly president.
Ex,8ifSker Reed has again demonstrated
hi. ahllltv as an unsurnassed leader. The
republicans of the present house follow him
solidly, snd thoss of the next house will do
the sams.
Hnw oould oonsrass be expected to hsvs
confidence In any financial plan emanating
tmm the administration, which has already
presented three plans each differing from
ths other.
Tha Tennessee democrats are, by their
counting out process, doing sxoellent work
toward making that state permanently re
publican.
I 'there lean man who wants ths next
demooratio presidential nomination hs Is
keeping very quiet about It.
Tha democrats who are pinning their
faith to ths belief that the republicans In
the next housa will be torn bv fsctions and
unabls to get together, are simply hugging
a delusion.
The French Count who Is to marry Miss
Anna Gould is to tot S2.000.000 from his
wifs ths dsy the marriage ceremony is per
formed. Counts are apparently going up
Tha transfer of the administration leader
ship In the house from Springer to WUson
will have no effect upon tne result, voter",
not leaders, la what ths administration
lacks in the house.
Ths St. Louis brsnd of kisses come high,
A court decision has fixed the tariff at 2
500 each, when taken without permission
of the kisses.
The less ths 53d congress does, outside of
passing the regular appropriation bill, dur
ing the few dsys of life it has left, the bet
ter it will be for the country.
Spring will be very grestfully received
this year, not only because the people will
be glad to see the last of this awful winter,
but because it will end the democratic con
grass.
Senators fill) and Gorman were two of
the fire democratic senators who voted
with the republicans for the lsytng ofs
cable to Hawaii.
There is nothing to indicate that Mr,
Mr. Cleveland is one whit more disgusted
with bis psrty than it is with hint.
Ths administration has done more to-
wards alarming ths country sbout its finan
ces than have the men who have with'
drawn gold from the treasury.
SPRING VALLEY NEWS.
Mr. Marshal Is at home again Improving
his place.
The snow is fast disappearing in this vi
cinity and in many places It Is all gone.
G. Deleskl is at boms again from Bache
lor Flat, where he has been clearing land.
Mr. Miller is finishing bis house, which
when done will help the appearance of tha
place greatly.
There has been nesrly 100 acres of land
slashed In this vicinity during this winter
which will be ready to burn and clear next
fall, and nearly tbat much has been made
ready for crops daring the winter.
Beautiful spring weather is fast approach
ing; robbins made their first appearance
last week; fish darting to and fro In the
streams; ducks and geese entrance the sir
with their melodies on the northwsrd flight,
and indeed every indication points to fast
approaching springtime.
A Corpse for a Bedfellow.
Tscoma, Feb. 17. A corpse for a bedfel
low was the experience J. Underwood had
iaat night. When he awoke this morning
in his room at tbs Brunswick hs found his
roommate, George Deardorff, cold snd stiff
In death, beside him. Deardorff wss a la
borer, aged 67. Hs had been on a pro
tracted spree, and death was doubtless
caused by alcoholism. He had no relatives
here.
