OREGON MIST,
BCB8CRIPTI0N. 11.50 PER YEAR.

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.
