OREGON MIST. SUBSCRIPTION. II 60 PER YEAR. BEEOLB ft DAVIS, Publisher. T. HELENS, ORKUON, AUG. t. Persons who com to settle in Ore- ftra should never luctte permanently Without seeing this pari of Columbia county. It is free from malaria, the sou is good lor all purposes, it is well watered, it is food for hout and fruits, large end small, good school and good sooiety. If you are looking for a home don I forget Columbia county. Envy I What is it? It is the evil na ure 01 man mat worcetn gona to no one, but causes many to suffer; it ii the yearning of nature for a better place than has been allotted as his share of this world's goods; a louging to overpower some man and nut him self in the seat that rightly belongs to another, it is in fact tbe devil work Ing in tbe heart Of him who is not strong enough to withstand the temp ution to do evil in Ins sneaking way. It is the one great fault so often fonnd lurking Just under the hide of so many seemingly good men. The lumber business is again look ing up, much to the gratiUcation of those engaged in that busmen as well as to tbe people at large.- Logs have advanced 5 cents per thousand on the sound, which is a good indication Tbe advance in price ia accompanied by a brink demand, something that has been anticipated with a great deal of anxiety for many months. There seems to be a feeling of more confi dence among loggers and lumbermen than for a long time. While it may be said that money has not begun to circulate freely, there is a general feel ing that tbe worst times are over, and trad will improve henceforth, a con dition which will be very acceptable at any time it may come. Ex-Senator Dolph takes issue with the supreme court ol this state on its affirming tbe decision of the lower court in an appeal case. Mr. Dolph very severely criticises the supreme court, indeed speaks in very nncom plimentary terms of the decision of that august tribunal of justice, and calls into question the motives which inspired the court to render such a de cision. Tbe ex-senator, as usual, play ing the role of "the great I am," heaps abuse upon the court in a manner un becoming a gentleman in Mr. Dolph's position. Just how long tbs supreme court will permit itself to be slandered by the ex-senator is a question being closely watched by all loyal citisens. We believe that in any other state of tbe Union were a man to apply iwh terms to the sapreme court as Mr. ' Dolph has in this case be would be immediately summoned to answer for eon tem pt. The United States district court has reversed tbe decision of the circuit court for Clatsop county in tbe con current jurisdiction case, and holds that where the laws of Oreeon and Washington conflict, either has juris diction to tbe middle of the river, but where the laws do not conflict each state has jurisdiction to tbe opposite snore. Tbe question that will bereaf ter oocnpy tbe time ot the courts will be in determining just where the cen ter of the river is. If Judge Belline ers interpretation of the law is correct there is more urgent need than ever of Oregon and Washington enacting uniform laws governing traffic on the Columbia river. Otherwise tbe courts of both states will, in future, be bur aenea wun nonsensical litigation in settling disputes and punishing viola tions of the laws of tbe two states bor dering on the Columbia. The two states ought each to have jurisdiction to tbe opposite bank, without which oar laws mar be violated with impunity. Tbs county assessor in his endeavor to straighten ont the entanglements of former assessments id Columbia county, is having no end of trouble. Inieed it is slmost like making a com plete abstract of the property. As sessor White has already found and assessed a great deal of property that never has been assessed before. One day this week it was discovered that a hundred lots in Columbia City escaped taxation heretofore, and tracts of land in many parts of tbe county have been uncovered by Mr. White and will in future be subject to taxation. In a great many instances it is found that property has been assessed to other parties thsa the real owners, and there are any number of double assessments. By thorough investigstion it is also discovered that many persons have failed to give in their entire real estate and therefore it cannot be found on the roll of former years. But tbe as sessor and his deputy say they are de termined to straighten ont these en tanglements and see to it that an hon est assessment is had. When the county board of equalization meets on tbe 26lh of August no doubt there will be many persons present to inquire wny tneir assessment is higher than in lormer years, but in many cases this can be explained by the fact that part of their property has heretofore escaped the assessor. Mr. White is no respector of persons when acting in tbe capacity of a public servant. the meet oonveniont point on the river to aunply steamboat, several hundred cords a week could be contracted In Purtliind. This is not guess work, but the result of thorough investigation by parties who contemplate goinif into the business. It is an easy matter to figure out Just what the net profit woma be on every cord of wood handled, because the estimates on cost of construction and operating have al ready been made. There is already a large amount of cord wood sold here to the steamboats sloue plying on (he river, and the amount would be greatly increased Were it positively known they could always depend on the sup ply. With a flume running wood onto tbe docks in this city this uncertainty would be removed. Let us say again that money invested in this prnposi. tion will yield largvr profit limn in I any other enterprise, and an investi gation ct the matter, we believe, will prove these facts conclusive to the Satisfaction of any business man. REUBEN RUMORS. While people who have money are easting about looking for a place lo invest it they should not overlook the fact that right here in St. Helens there is an opportunity to invest a few thousand dollars which would yield large profits lo the investor and fur nish employment to a large number of men at good wages. Tbis is noth ing less than the building of a wood flume from Milton creek into St Helens. The Milton creek country furnishes an abundant supply of tim ber wbicb would not be exhausted for years to come, and persons who have examined the grade ssy there would be no difficulty in constructing the flume into this place. With a little larger expenditure of money the flume could be made of sufficient capacity to carry lumber and piling. But tbis need not be considered in the begin ning, for the flume could be profitably nssd all the time carrying wood, for vbiuh there is a ready market here all tbe year. In addition to tbis being i E. S. King is hauling shinies from Apiary, Alex MoDonald, ot Deer Inland, was in town last week. James McNanghton made a trip to Ore gon Cltv on Friday. J. R. Beegle, of Tbs Mist, was in town Saturday. Call again, brother. W. D. Connell, ot Deer Island, was lo town Tuesday; also Eugene Blakesley, of St. Helens. Samuel Howe and family, of Neer Citv, were visiting Mr. Howe's mother at this place Saturday and Sunday. Sara Bowen and wife, of Mooresville left for Eastern Washington last week. Tbey expect to be absent until September. Mrs. H. R. Borthwick, of Portland, spent Saturday and Sunday visiting friends at Mooresville, returning borne on Sunday evening. Mrs. John D. Neer, of Fortland, has been visiting her mother, Mrs. C. 8tehinan, dur ing the last weak. She returned home on Friday. Mrs. C. Stehraan is having very poor health this summer. I am informed that there is little hops of recovery on account of her age. H. B. Borthwick and James McXaughton spent several days with 0 mipany A, at Oearheart Park, they being members of said company. H. B. Borthwick sent a scow load of wood to Cook's cannery last Thursday, and scow load of lumber to Astoria Sunday. Borthwick is a rustler. H. C. Brown was in town Tuesday mak ing out legal papers in a case of replevin ol R. R. Foster vs. T. 0. Marks of ADiarv. he case is set for trial at this place oa August 7. Lawrence Archibald returned from Salem on Wednesday, where he went to see his wife. He reports her Improving nicely and thinka she alii be able to return home in about six weeks. Mr. and Mrs. William Williamson, of Portland, were looking over the lay of the land at this place on Monday. The gentle man thinks the completion of the Astoria railroad will make business lively here. CROPS AND WEATHER. Following is the report of the State Weather Bureau for the week ending on Monday, July 29. WESTERN OREGON. Weather Generally cloudy weather, with the temperature cooler than the average. were the principal features of the weather during tbe past week, consequently the sunshine was deficient. There was a total absence of precipitation. Special grain report Harvest is progress ing rapidly in all sections; some threshing has been done, and already some grain has been shipped. From tbs progress which has already been made with tbe barvest, it is expected tbat the bulk of tbe fall-sown grain crop will be harvested within the suc ceeding week or ten days. Within a few days the entire winter oat crop will have been harvested, and the spring oat crop will soon be ripe enough to harvest Much of tbe spring crop of oats on the higher land has already been eut, though on the lower land tbey are too green. Spring- sown wheat has rjpened so rapidly tbat wiimn ten aays li wm be ready (or barvest in some localities; in the southern counties, also in Lane and Linn counties, the crop suffered somewhat by the warm, dry weather though there is a wide divergence of opinion as to material injury. Wher ever barley is grown tbe crop is cood. In the Willamette valley the crop is not gener ally grown, but in Douglas, Josephine and JtcksQn counties it is one of tbe principal crops, and an excellent one this year. The site and fnllneas of tbe heads ot wheat and oats are commented npon by correspon dents in all sections. Farmers are Jubilant over tbe expected yield as a rule. Tbe po tato crop is in need of rain, though np to date it has made good progress. There is a good crop of peaches, the earliest of which is on tbs market. There are large crops of prunes snd plums. All vegetables and fruits are making the good advance ment toward maturity tbat was expected. HOHOOIi BOOK CHANGS. Clrowlar Letter of Instruction Sent Out by Superintendent.

You will observe that a new series ot Spelters, Language, Grammar, Drswing and Civil Gov ernment has been adopted, while all other books are the same as used the past six years. The Watson Spellers have been displaced by Reed's Word Lessons, upon the following terms: The pupil exchanges the old Speller (or the new one and pays 10 cents additional, or buys the new book for 20 cents, without giving the old book. The Grammar exchange Is made as follows: The pupil gives his old Sill's or Clark's grammar and S5 cents for the new Maxwell's Grammar, and gives his Barnes' Language Book and 25 cents (or ths new Maxwell's First Book In Language. Peterman's Civil Government Is Introduced in place of Younjr's Class Book, the pupil giving his old book and AS cents for the new book. 'Drawing books are not exchanged for old ones, but are sold direct at 10 cents each for primary, and IS cents for advanced books. These special terms npon the newly adopted books are good nntll April 1, 1896, and all old books should be displaced at once, while the prices are favorable. Ail new books adopted are of the latest and best series and their introduction will be (or the best interest ol the public school. A full list of supplementary reading matter has been selected, and while its use is not com pulsory. It should be gradually Introduced into the school-room. Agents lor attending to the exchange ot new books have been selected throushout the county, and a special effort should be made to have all new books introduced during the fall term. All text books nsed in the public schools after October 1, 1895, must be of the (oregoing series, and Boards ol Directors and Teachers should insist npon the use ol the legal books. In connection with the use of the regular text books, I woula suggest that each district be supplied with a Reading Chart, Geographical Chart, Globe, Abacas, Physiological Chart or Manikla, Webster's Dictionary and Blackboard; also Cbalk, Erasers, Pointer, Pencils, Psper, Ink, Pens, Etc., all of which may be purchased from time to time from the 10 per cent, allowance made annually from the regular school (und (or such purposes. The custom adopted by some districts ol pur chasing wood, glass, stoves, tinware, lumber and other articles not actually used in teaching. is to be severely criticised, and should not be practiced. District clerks ate often paid ont of tbe teach' er"s (und. This should be discontinued. The money used In these transactions should be raised by tax in the district. Any further Information concerning the fore going will be cheerfully furnished. Very respectlully, J. 0. WATTS, County School Superintendent. S.tll.1 I I'll l.ill - S BI.-IS S II. I II health.
