Newspaper Page TextOREGON MIST, BCB8CRIPTI0N. 11.50 PER YEAR. BEEQLE A DAVIS, Publisher. T. HELENS. OREGON, Jl'PIE T. FACTS OF RECORD. The Nehulem Journal, It. H. Mitch ell, editor, makes some very reckless Uteimenls regarding prices charged bt The Mist for county printing dur ing the past six months. The Journal ays The Mist has charged from $12.50 to f SO per meeting for publishing the court proceedings, and that during the past six months has received $31.64 from that source, and adds that the Journal had offered to do the work for nothing. We wish to say that during the six months referred to Tub Mist has actually received from that source $29.44 instead of fSl.64 as stated by the Journal ; and further, we wish to add that Mitchell never offered to print court proceedings free, but on the contrary less than three weeks go appeared in person and insisted that the county court violate the law and designate two papers to do the county work making the Journal one of them so that he might receive pay for what he now implies he will print free. Again the Journal says The Mist received $172.99 since January 1 from the county. We dislike to call a Sun day school superintendent a liar, but here are the figures : From conntv tor six months endin May SI $164 19- l'aia out la eaaa lot stoca 107 wj Balance 56 26 It will be seen by the foregoing state ment that the margin on the county work for the six months past, after paying cash for the raw material, has been $56.26, or $9.37 per month. Out of this must come labor, iuk and the use of types, etc On the larger jobs of county work this office has bid against Portland houses, to which Papa Schoonover can testily. On one job the Portland firm bid $22.50; we did it for $12.50. On another job the Portland firm bid $18; we did it for $3.50. And so it has been all along the line the work has been done here cheaper than in Portland. Notwithstanding this fact certain amount of printing goes to Portland printing, most of which this office is not prepared to do and the bills are allowed each term of court to which there is no objection raised by the Journal, which is not to be won dered at when we consider the Journal ia an alleged democratic paper with populistio tendencies, both of which parties seek to destroy home institu tions for the benefit of those abroad. Something has been said about the price charged for treasurer's notices. To this we wish to inform Editor Mitchell and Papa Schoonover that the charges, made for treasurer's no tices is and has been the same as the Journal and other papers charge for land notices occupying the same space and running thu same length of time, only that for a treasurer's notice we are paid in county warrants and a land notice is cash. If a treasurer's notice can be published for less why not apply the reduction to land no tices? It may be true the Journal man can do work very cheap, since he has not oae dollar invested and gets the use of the printing office for paying . the tax on the plant. Bat price is not the only thing necessary in plac ing the county advertising. The ob ject of publishing county transactions is to give the matter the widest pub licity possible, so that most or all of the people interested may become familiar with the county's condition. Could the Journal fill the bill? No one knows better than its editor that it could not. With the above statement of facts mostly taken from the records we submit the questions involved to those who desire to examine the records and see whether or nut it is possible for Editor Mitchell to tell the train. Susklt, Citizen, in the last question in bis communication, does not mean to infer that Commisiioner Schoon over would "cahoot" with his "peta" to "do" the county? Ir Columbia county would produce her own hay, meat, hotter and mill staff, instead of shipping them in, she would have no reason to complain of hard times. There is a market in this county for a great percentage of what could be grown. If our people would just raise enough for home consump tion it would make a marked differ ence in the circulating medium about the little farms in this county. The main remedy for the hard times in Columbia county lies within the grasp of the people of the county instead of other affairs. When the Journal man was emitting all that rot about the taxeatera be evi dently was oblivious of the fact that as a prosecuting attorney (T) be should have looked into the matter before he did. The fact is thai because the work was done at home, and the money re mains in the county the Journal man is terribly worked up, but if Portland houses had have been allowed to do the work at twice the price charged by The Mist the bills would have been all right, and nothing would have been said. The Journal man couldn't do the work if be bad a chance, be sides it would be so convenient for the county officers to go over to the Jour nal office when they are in hasty need of stationery. Eveby man present at the meeting Monday night to discuss the consoli dation of the Honlton and St. Helens school districts, except one, expressed himself as favorable to the proposition. The meeting was largely attended and it seemed to be the general opinion that consolidation would accomplish a great deal for the educational in terest of the two districts. As The Mist has repeatedly stated, the intel lectual standing of a community is invariably measured by its educational advantages, without which no material Prosperity or advancement need be oked forward to.. If this opportunity is not utilized the result will forever be an object of regret. MAYO Bit. Walter Severn has been very successful nailing 01 inie. John Htockeuberg ha purchased a team trout uusi Larson. Fluhrer Bros, are running their shingle nun tun nanaea at present. James R. Buckler la making a nice show ing 011 on rauco tins spring. 0.

J.Carlton has returned from the Santtain river, where he has a claim, and reports everything iu a very prosperous condition mere. J. W. Boats has begun the excavation for his new house, and it is said he will have the finest house In this vicinity wheu it is completed. A lady in this place received a letter from Mrs Marv Severn who left here some time ago for Oklahoma. She expressed a desire to get back to Oregon, and savs she has had nothing to eat since she left here ex cept corn bread and sorghum molasses. Comeback to Oregon where there is plenty of good bread and butter, cheap, too. Miss Fannie Meserve cave a verv inter esting entertainment at the Sanborn school house, where she is teaching, on Decoration Day and the children all did wall. Tliev called for some man to address the school and one of our populists got up and gave vent 10 nia leenngs 10 tnis wise: 1 tnina it would be better for the people to take the money spent to decorate the graves of ole dead soldiers and give it to the poor." remaps our inena wonia line n nave some himself, but I believe in honoring those who have earned it, first and always. 6CAPPOO8E. Commissioner Schoonover paid us a fly ing visit last week. Children's day exercises will be held in the church next Sunday. Henry White has iust completed a resi dence on his place west of here. The fine weather of the Dast few davs has given early hay makers a good start. Mr. J. Johnson is sojourning in Sweden and visiting the scenes of his early days. Miss Hattie Mullen is teaching: in dist rict 28. She is giving good satisfaction as a teacher. Decoration day was befittinglv observed here as well as possible considering the wet weather. Supervisors Johnson and Clonineer have been getting in some apleudid road work the past month. Only a few dairymen are compelled to move out on account of the high water, and from present indications the worst of the freshet is over. A eang of fence builders belonging to the N. P. K. R. Co., have headquarters here. Theypropoae to fence the right-of-way in every part. Marvdale creamery is taming out piles of fine butter. Our dairymen are fully con vinced of the benefits of a creamery in their midst and are the gainers tnereoy. The late rains seem to have damaged much of the cherry and berry crop. However, the shortage will be a gain in the end owing to the excellence ot the crop. A nrni-t ia on fool to connect theennntv road leading from Scappoose to Bald Hill with the Pebble creek road in Nebalem. If this Idea is carried out it will be of im mense value to both sections of the county, in fact the road should have been bout years ago. TKYOX OBSERVANCES.

Graham, of Portland, was on our streets one day last week. John Bryant came up from the Island to spend last Sabbath at home. - John Llndfren is making dally trips with his team between here ana Mist, Dr. Coley returned Saturday morning. Prof. Pophain did not return with him. W. H. Conyers spent last week at the slate capital and eisewnere up tue river. City Recorder Warren and wife returned Friday from a few days' visit in Portland. Rev. White returned Friday after an ah- sence of nearly two weeks at Portland and uregon nty. There was an attempt at holding a coun cil meeting Saturday evening that tailed for want ot a quorum. Monacle waa in Monday with his travel' ing trading establish ment ready to ship some rteiitueni vauey product uy steamer, A dime social at Dr. Hall's last Friday evening was quite well attended. Those piesent report having spent a very pleasant time. 1 Al Harney got a lay-off last week from the seining ground and improved the op- portuity to visit 111s home in wo penaietu vauey. nt returned to worn Monday. Jack Lace came In from Astoria Sunday night and took a look at the new niece at v. K. l icheuor s. lie left again on Mon day, satisfied that the little maiden was all right. Mrs. Mattlo Dixon is back again after an ausence 01 several raontns. Her sister accompanied her from Castle Rock, Wash., and is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Murray. Arthur Lowe returned on 8unday from his eheapshearing tiiu lo Eastern Oregon. Rheumatism got a grip on him and stiff- lened mm too much tor successlul work Hence his early return. J ack Cameron left na Monday evening, report says for Nebalem bay. Jack's fa miliar figure will be missed about here where he is so well known. His many menus wisp mm success. The Illness of the president of the repub lican club and engagements of other of ficers elsewhere, prevented a meeting last week and deprived tbe members of listen ing to the promised auurawea oy uome tal ent. The speeches, if well salted, will keep for another occasion. E. W. Conyers took occasion last Sunday evening to explain in his hall his rendering of scripture bearing on Sunday observance in reply to a sermon from the Adventist point of view the week previous. Quite a large audience gathered and gave the speaker a respecttul bearing. There was quite a family gathering at Murray's last Sunday, where children and grandchildren to the number of a score or two vied with each other in efforts to spend a pleasant time. It was rumored that a wedding was one of the attractions, but if it was, notice of the affair has not got out yet. The committee to solicit funds for the Fonrth oi July celebration is meeting with gratifying success and there is every rea son to believe that Clatskanie will do its part towards spreading tbe wings of the American eagle on that day. An array of committees have the different portions of the work in charge. Quincy wants to stay at home this year and celebrate the Fourth of July, and in vites their neighbors to participate. We prefer that they come over here and pro pose to make it an object for their people to come. Quincy is one of our attractive autrarus anu our tatco string is always out for its worthy citizens. Wilt Con vers started out on horseback one day last week with a gun on his shoul der and an accompaniment of dogs, and reported he was going out collecting. It is doubtful if even a dog and shotgun would get much money out of a person these days. Nothing else does. Will has not reported what success he had. towe's child, about two years old. had a finger very nearly cut off by a hatchet In the bands of an older brother about ten davs ago. The case seemed Quite hopeless to save the finger, but Dr. Hall decided to attempt it and is quite well pleased to see that healing is taking place and the child will lose very little if any of the injured member. Railroad talk is still the order of the day and some of our business men are quite en thused over the project of building a road into the Nebalem valley bv local enterprise. if necessary. This would secure a logging road up the Clatskanie river, and in that way help na out it tne road never got any further. With a road up this river, how ever, it is not probable it would stop short of tbe valley of the Nebalem. Our present mayor is kept busy talking the scheme and sees in it much of promise for our little city. DEER ISLAND DOINGS. Alex McDoDald was up to the county seat Monday. Beautiful weather, and vegetation is now putting forth its best growth. Edwin Merrill and wife did business and pleasure in Portland last week. Peter Smith has been considerable under the weather for a few days past with heart disease. Cherries are now getting well colored and will be ready for the pickers in a week or ten days. Mrs. Emmons Buell has been slightly In disposed for several days, but now is rap idly improving. Mrs. Clara Merrill, who has been con fined to her room for some time with an attack of sickness, is convalescing. Bnpervisor E. Merrill is doing some very much needed work which will be a lasting benefit to this district. Such work is com mendable. Strawberries are not equal to what they have been other years at this date, but chances are that they will be better and more plentiful later on. W. H. Bomgardner made final proof on his homestead last week. If all who have taken homesteads in this county would have made such permanent improvements as made by Mr. Bumgarder the county would be ahead several thousand dollars. C. H. English, of the firm of C. English & Son, made a qnick trip to Portland last Mondav, where he purchased considerable stock for their store. Through intelligent management, straight, holiest dealing they have done an excellent business during these hidebound times. The Rev. Mr. Jndy preached here last Sunday to an appreciative audience. An effort was made to organize a Sunday school which will be consumated in. two weeks. A vote was taken for superintendent and Mr. Charles English was elected unani mously. An assistant superintendent was next in order to be elected, and as there were three candidates for that office there was much amusement, and was evidence that we do not lack material lor good Sun day school officers. Rev. Judy will preach here the third Sunday in June, anu an ei fort will be made to have him come regu larly. A very pleasant musical entertainment was enjoyed by Edwin Merrill and wife a few evemnirs ago. when a few neighbors called in to spend a few hours at their home. Mr. B. Fisher, of the firm 01 vy. B. Allen & Co , music dealers, Portland, waa in the neighborhood, staying at tbe home Of Mr. Merrill, and was very much pleased to have so many csll to hear him play on the organ which he had with him. Charles English materially helped with bis violin, while Jack Pavne took a tnrn at tbe keys also. While all this was going on Mrs. Merrill was not idle, as she prepared an el egant lunch for the guests. Tuv XfraT w.nta m. enrrMnnndAnt in every neighborhood.
