County Purveyor Meaorve returned Monday from the Lower Nohalem country, where he has beeu most of tbe time for the past five weeks, engaged in surveying for different partiea. Mr. Meserve tbiuka (he section of country tributary to Mist and Fishhawk is tbe most prosperous part of Columbia county, and ez pressed great surprise at me development going on In that low I i ty. "The fa rmera," he aaya, "are striving to make themselves indepond rnl, and are succeeding in a very sat- ihfai lory manner." We do not under stand that tbe Lower Nelmloiu la any better than many other part of the county, but the prosperity down there must fce mainly due to contentment among the peoplo. I'orliapa there have not been any populist agitators down there to preach calamity among a prosperous and contented people. Not Cahninq. Horsr Mbat It la a mistake that the factory at Linnton ia canning horse meat, aa ia generally supposed, aaya Ihe Times-Mountaineer. Not one can has so far been put on the market at this place, and the horses have been butchered, and tbe bides anved and the meat cooked, dried and ground up and turned into fertilising material. The company has now 8000 pounds of the moat in plcklo, which will be sent lo Germany and Franco. About 4000 or 6000 of (he SwiUler baud the company has purchased at a cost of $2D0 a head, and have received aovernl hundred of thia lot. The ca pacity of the worka ia about 55 head a day, 45 horses and 10 colts. After the aninml ia killed it ia denuded of its hide by pulling it off. The hide la started in plnoea and then jerked off by winding machine. This is tanned into leather and used in the manufac ture of boots and shoes. The olTul is fed to hogs and thia furnishes good feed. Anyone desirous of purchasing an animal may take his choice for 1 10, but our informant says there ia none be can son that ia worth thia amount. Two ExAMrLRa.-.From a report of the teachers' institute, by tbe Repub lican, held last week at Union, Oregon, the following is taken : "Superintend out Irwin addressed the teachers and friends of education on the subject of bow to obtain an education. It was recommended from a practical stand point that the boys should have a part in obtaining tho means for getting an education. This aame thought was contained by President Chapman, of the State University, wbo said he bad started to school with $!0 which he bad earned by teaching a two months' term of school, and so detor mined was he to obtain an eduoation that he did not so much notico the poverty through which he bad to go in order to obtain his education, and which was imver regretted. lie Is now the honored preaidont of our grand Uni vorcity of Orogon, whilo Mr. Irwin is our stale mperintondenU-two good exanipb'H of what our boys osn do who bnvi- the pluck and energy to push out into the world and make a name for themselves, regardless of poverty, from hu worst condition from which some pI'oqv best men haye come," I'EKBONAIj AND LOCAL,.

Tim Roneburc Review has this lo say about one of the men lynched at Yreka, Gal., laist Monday morning ! "Garlaud Slemler was a mombor of the Stemler family at Dora, Coos county, on the old Coos bay wagon road. He attended the Corvallis col logo last year, leaving there in Febru ary, and while there-was frequently aoouseiLof llitfft. ' Tho family, is an excellent one, and Garland's brother, Milton Sleinlur, graduated at the Ag ricultural college this yoar with high honors. Tho lynched boy was a "black sheep." , Frank Dow, of Oak island, Commis sioner Frakes, of Scappoose, N. A. Perry, I. G. Wikstrom and Judson Weed, of Houlton, were In the city Tuesday evening in attendance at tbe Knights of Pythias loJge. Prof. W. II. Towell, of Pittsburg, was in the city on Tliursduy of lust week. Ho has been employed as principal of tho school in Cottage Grove for the coming school year, where bo will be gin bis duties about the last of Sep tember. The court bouse ia' now decorated with a handsome nw flag 12x7 feot, and is suspended from the top of a slick of Oregon' pine about 00 feet high. The rlag would show off to bet tor advantage if floating from the top of a new court-house. For fine work in watch repairing and cleaning there ia no mora reliable store In Oregon (ban Uncle Myers, 165 First street, Portland. There can also bo found a full and complole line of diamonds, watches and fine jewelry, which is offered at bottom prices. The Houlton school bouse Is now complete and has been accepted by tlio board. We are informed a special meeting of the patrons of the school will be held next Thursday for tbe purpose of devising ways and means for conducting the school at that place. W. D, Council, administrator of the estate of 8. F. Hunter, deceased, sold by public auction last Saturday the real estate belonging to said estate, which was bid in by Charles Gore, the purchase price being flOCK). Tbe prop erly is located at Hunters Poiut, and is said to be a bargain. The artistio rustio fence under con struction around Dillard's park attracts considerable attention. It is com posed of logs about thirty feet iu length with morticed cross-blocks forming tbe joints. The fence when completed will certainly be "horse high and bull atrong." Enough rain has fallen to lay the duat, and to see the large stock of rub ber goods opening out at Dolman's store one would think that lots of mud was expected. More rubber goods are probably worn in Oregon than in any other slate by the same number of people. That is the best evidence of our mild rainy winters. Leo Stewart, for many years a resi dent of Columbia county during bis boyhood days, is, sccording to the fossil Journal, successfully engaged in the photographing business in Fos sil, where the Stewart family located some years ago. Since their residence there Lee has held the oflloe of oounty aurveyor a part of the time. It would acem from tho tone of an article in last week's Review signed by one "L, V. Hanzor" that that individ ual does not consider a rape case a "rotten affair." We are not surprised at this, emanating from the source it did, but we are inclined to btdiove, however, that all friends ot moral decency will disagree with the afore said individual.

All but one man is said to have in stantly jumped to their feet. The minister with surprise depioted on his face, advanced down the isle saying. "Why, Bro , do you not want to go to heaven!" "No," replied tbe man, "Oregon is good enough for me." It ia the deaira of Rev. Judy and others interested in maintaining a Sunday school at St. Helena to have a meeting of all wbo will lend their assistance Sunday, September 8th, 10 :15 a. in., for the purpose of de termining tbe most convenient hour for tbe lesson, and other matter of importance to tbe Sunday school Rev.

"I tried several liniments," she says, "but was not curod until I used Chamber lain's Pain Balm. That remedy cured me, and I take pleasure in recom mending it and testifying to its effi cacy."
