The atablna of the Oregon Ice Company In 1'ortland were destroyed by Are on Friday morn ing of liiat week. It Waa about 1 o'clock In the morning, and conse quently before the Are department liad time to render any ambiance the entire property waa well along toward destruction.

They are now among onr wenlthioet farmer, owning large tracts of land. Thia provca conclu sively that the right kind of farmer can make money here, even with low price.

Last Thurs day evwnintf, September 5th, Captain and Mra. llendnrson, of Houlton, en tertained a number of thei' friends at thoir home. Invitation had been le aned a day or two previous, and the event wa looked forward to with great expectation. Shortly after duak a 'good-niced crowd gntbered at tho house and indulged in chat and card until late in the evening, when lunch wa announced. All partook in a manner which indicated that many had pur posely (I (jhied the afternoon uieol and bore evidence of a thorough apprecia tion of all the good things which had been spread before them. All had a pleasant time, which was evidenced by the lateness of Hie hour when they dinperaod. . Those who enjoyed the hot pilality ol Captain and Mr. Hen derson were Mr. and Mr. U. Cox, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Mucklo, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob George, Mr. and Mrs. David llenshaw, Mr. and Mr. D. J. fiwiUer, Mr. and Mr W. If. Dolman, Mr. and Mrs. A. N. Clark, Mr. and Mr. U. W. ClarV, Mr. aud Mrs. C. II. Johns, Mr. nod Mrs. David Davis, Mrs. E. E. Quick, Mrs. Ja. Cox, Mi Marie Dart, Judge Want-hard, Messrs. W. JO. lan iard, J. We'd, A. King, Washington Muckle, J. II. Bwager and N. A. ferry. A Dryimo Estaiiushmint. We note among the improvements In the little town of lloulton thia fall, tho erection of a fruit dryer by Mr. Lind ley Meeker. That gentleman has a large orchard of fine Italian prunes, the trees being exceptionally heavily laden, and in order to save the fruit he la putting up this, dryer, the first one, wo believe, of the kind in Colum bia county. He has employed to su perintend its oonstruotion Mr. 0. C. Mitrsan, of Vancouver, Wash., who baa hud lnrgo experience in uch work. The building i 20x30 feet, two stories in heiirht. with a basement for the furnace, which i constructed of brick, with hot and cool air Hues leading from it to a chamber, also built of brick, which stands just above the fur nace and which is 14 feet ft inches by 7 foot, and contains a system of large pipes for the conveyance and distribu tion of the heat, the whole apparatus being so arranged as to maintain any degree ot heal desired. Direotly above this chamber and on the main iloor I n chamber of the ame size, to hold the trays, 120 in number, for the dry ing of tho fruit. The rest of the main floor will be used to receive and ore pare tho fruit for drying; the upper story is for the storage of the fruit when dried, and the estimated capao . itv of tho dryer is 60 bushels every 24 hours, and its oost will be about s&UU. Mr. Meeker lias probably one week's work with his own prunes and then lie intend to dry for others, quite a number of our prune-growers having made arrangements to that effect. We Lulieve and hope he will succeed in this undertaking, not only because he deservos to be well paid for his ven ture, but it will mean much to Colum bia county, as success in this case will moan the building of dryer in other parts of the county. Mr. Marsan tells us that in his business of building and repairing dryers he has had occasion to visit many of tho prune orchards of mis coast, and Hint Mr. Mucker's orch ard is the best that he has scon, bet ter, even, than the famed orchards of Vancouver, both for size and quality, tiiu confirming what Thr Mist has all the time claimed, that Columbia joounly ia the oqiml of any county In tho alula in fruit-ruining. 1'KUHOMAIi AND IOCA Ii. .

This office if in receipt of a descrip tive pamphlet of Oregon City, author ized by the board of trade of that city, and printed by Chas. Meserve, of The Enterprise. The pamphlot contains illustrations of the principal buildings of the city, the many manufacturing plants, the great falls of the Willam ette, and the steamboat canal, besides a comprehensive write-up of the many resources of Clackamas county and Oregon City. In all it is a splendid advertisement, and speaks well for any city whose citizens are so enterprising and energetic Mrs. S. A. Kell,of Pomona, Cat., had the bad luck to sprain ber ankle. MI tried several liniments," she says, "but was not cured until I used Chamber lain's Pain Balm. That remedy cured me, and I take pleasure in recom mending it and testifying to it effi cacy." Thi medicine is also of great value for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the chest, pleurisy and all deep- seated and muscular pains. For sale by Dr. Edwin Itoes, druggist. Victor M. Wallace, probably one of the most prominent characters in the early settlement and upbuilding of pioneer towns on the coast, died at his home near Kelso, Wash., on tbe 5th inatantat tbe advanced age of 88 years. Mr. Wallaco. with his family, left Mis souri in May, 1847, for this ooast, and arrived in Oregon City just a few days before the first of the next year. Mr. Wallace was prominently identified with the early settlement of the Will amette valley, residing in that part of tbe state for many years, when he re moved to the Cowlitz valley, in Wash ington, where he spent tho rest of his life in a useful manner. If Tbk Mibt is reliably informed in the matter, there is urgent need of in spection by the authorities of the premises upon wbicb tne children died of diphtheria on Sauvies island, and the man nor in which the patients were allowed to be transferred by boat from that place to Portland. It is said that no precaution whatever was taken to prevent the disease from spreading over the entire country there around, and if such is the case there may yet be still further destruction by that peasiience. Undoubtedly there i work for the health officers there, aud it is tbe duty of those who have tbe wel fare of that community at heart to see that some attention is paid the matter. Messrs, Btrachan and Gibbs, two ex pert stone masons, have been engaged this week in tbe erectiou of a water fountain immediately in front of Tho. Cooper's livery stable. The structure has a base about five feet square and is about five feet high, and when com pleted will be cemented and used for a publio watering place. It is built of native basalt and granite, and besides being a credit to tbe workmen, will also be a great convenience to the publio, and ia evidence of tbefaot that Mr. Cooper la always alert to tne ae mands of the publio in more ways than one. It is something whioh there has been a crying need of for a long time, and speaks well for any citizen whose public spirit prompts him to supply. Affaire of the City. - Tuosday evening tbe common council of Hits city met and considered several im portant matters for tho city welfare. Fro Inent am one other tiling was the consider ation of the improvement of that part of Columbia itreet lying between St. Helens and Willamette streets. The road entering the city from that sad ha never been on the street proper, and the Improvement in that portion of the eity ha neoeuarlly ma terially changed matter there, necessitat ing the improvement ot Columbia street so a to permit of the more effectual carrying out the plan of property ownera in that vicinity. To thia end two bid were received by the council for removing the stone and other wise ohanginn matters there, one from Mr. W. B. Dillard. the other from Messrs. Glbba and Straohan, the latter agreeing to enter into contract with the eity to remove the stone to a depth ot six feet, and to the width of sixteen feet on tbe crest of the hill .

The attempt of the Oregon fe Cali fornia railroad oompany to have tbe assessed valuation of their land in this oounty reduced from $3 to$l per acre, we believe will not meet with tbe ap proval of the citizens generally. We fail to see any valid reason why the valuation should be lowered on cor poration property any more than on individual property. We believe also that a just and equitable assessment ha been made and should not be tampered with. The railroad agent when here during court last week in sisted that he did not want the value lowered on other property than that of the railroad. Of course not, Ihe railroad company always want the actual settlers to pay the tax on their land by having the former assessed low and the latter high. Mr. rases' oourse in demanding that the valua tion be not lowered on the railroad land is commendable, and in fairness to the taxpayers 10 goneral should be concurred in by the other members of the court.
