Th Rainier Review bna gone soul,
body and breechea into the populiat
camp. This lateat freak ia aot sur
prising to those who have watched
the antics of the little apaamodio since
It started ; indeed, it haa been of the
populiat persuasion all the time, and
baa attempted to, and to a certain de
gree succeeded, in carrying water on
both shoulders until now. But the
populists have evidently demanded
that it show itself, since the spring
campaign ia near at hand. Newspa
pers of the Review type are always for
sale, and usually very cheap, too, but
an article so cheap is not worth buy
ing. The Review deserves ci edit for
one thing, however, it copies Ths
Mist's editorials with credit Thanks.
According to the Oregonian there
is some relief in sight from the pesky
carp. They are to be frosen and ex
ported to their native country Ger
many. It is said that tbey are to be
shipped out by the ton and the more
tons the better. These fish hsve been
proven to be the most utterly worth
less of any that have been transplanted
in our northern waters, and if China
and Germany want them back, tor the
sake of our country, send them back,
for there is where they belong. If the
Goble cannery people can make profit
able use of this Oriental production it
certainly should be the pleasure of the
people who reside along the Columbia
and its tributaries to glut the estab
lishment with their worthless carcases.
Thi administration's foreign policy
as set forth in President Cleveland's
message to congress does not meet
with the approval of our neighbors
across tba water, because the chief ex
ecutive of the United Stales does not
concede all England demands. Bat
if the administration would but carry
into practice many of the things indi
cated in the president's message it
would hare a far better standing with
the American people; and from the
tenor of some of the resolutions pre
sented in congress, practice instead of
theory, is liable to be the rale rather
than the exception. If it has not al
ready, congiera will sooner or later
learn, that it does not psy to dally with
the foreign powers in uncertain tones.
ExpkbiehcB seems to bring wisdom
to some people, some times. For in
stance. Farmer Jackson, of Southern
Oregon, who became famous a few
year ago by going to San Francisco
and letting the sharpers rob him of all
the money he had quite a large sumj
paid the same city another visit the
other day, and fought shy of the sharp
en to be sure. He just took a room
and advertised for a wife, and when a
lively one to bis fancy called, was go
ing to marry her right off, until she
fastened on to two $20 gold pieces in
hia pocket, and slipped out and away,
when he gay chase and ran her into
a police ststion and was locked up
himself, to be sure, that he could be
found for a witness when the case was
called. Nothing like the wisdom of
experience. -
Tax meanest person in the world
either man or woman, is the sneak, ex
cept some other person who is a big
ger aneak. The man or woman who
will smile up into the face of another
with .friendship, and who, with soft
words, will express solicitude for the
health and prosperity of the person
addressed, and with soft compliments
will express the hope that the future
of the other may be enhanced ; and
. who then, behind the person's back,
will by whispers and innuendoe, and
where possible, by open words, try to
break down the reputation of that per
son, to east doubts upon that person's
sincerity and try by tne means of the
snesk to weaken the respect of others
for that person; to cause others to
doubt the friendship of that person,
snch an individual in a community is
a mischiefmaker, and is worthy of the
contempt only 01 decent people.
Ths total valuation of taxable prop
erty in Columbia county in 1894 was
11,676,523. This year it is $1,534,663,
or a falling off of 1141,853. There
may be assigned several reasons for
this, one of which is a general depre
ciation of values, and another is that
there were many double assessments
made in 1894, which appeared on the
roll as representing actual taxable
property, but which, when taxpaying
time came could not be realized upon.
If the double assessments were de
ducted from the total amount as shown
by the roll of 1894, the vsluation in
the two years mentioned would be
very nearly equal. In a few counties
of the state the total valuation Is
greater this year than last, but this
only occurs in counties which have
had a substantial growth accompanied
by the advent of new industries. Val
uations have depreciated all over the
state and Columbia county is no ex
ception to the role.
It has already taken the Review
three weeks to print the county court
proceedings for the last term snd it is
not certain that it bas yet finished. At
thia rate it would take it about a year
to print the tat list. As a matter of
fact, Ths Mist is the only paper in
the county prepared to do such work.
Besides it is impracticable to have
such work done away from the county
seat where it cannot be personally look
ed after by the officer. If the Review
nan made an offer to print the tax
list for any stipulated price he did it
solely for buncomb, for he knew that
such a proposition could not be enter
tained aud was impracticable. He
alio knew that hia paper had not suf
fioient circulation to entitle it to con-
iderstiou in such matters. . The real
intent of the law in providing for the
publication of notices on execution or
anything else Is to give it the widest
publicity possible, and in executing
the Ihw the official is expected to tuku
cognisance of tins fact. It is appar
ent to everybody tlmt the Heviow has
tither been eubaiiliiHil by the popu
list or is running a bluff, or both, and
in Ha foolish howl about "ring" it
knows nut whereof it speaks. St. Hel
ens nor Union precinct thu largest
iu the county waa given a place on
the county ticket at the but election
and consequently there is no St. Hvl
ens man holding a county office. Tli-cli-rk,
sheriff and treasurer have moved
here from other parts as a matter of
convenience during their respectivt
terms, but they are not bona fide reti
dents, and on election day do not vote
here. Rainier has the judge and sher
iff, Vernonia has the clerk, Quincy,
the assessor; Deer Ielaud, the treas
urer ; Svsppoose, the commissioner and
school superintendent; and Delena
has the surveyor. The cry of "ring"
is of very sncicnt origin and does not
apply at the present time, since the
officers are well distributed over the
county, and notwithstanding the Re
view e many misrepresentations and j
implications, they are attempting to
do the very best thing possible under
the circumstances.
fMr STBAKGS, INDEED.
But," says the Review, "it is our
first experience in over 35 years of
newspaper work where a republican
paper, working for the good of the
party, has been given the cold sboolder
as it has by those in power in Colum
bia county." Indeed I No one would
ever have known it was republican if
it bad not said so. But herein lies the
secret of tbo Review's discontent. If
tho public patronage were given it, to
which it has no right, the little spas
modio would be as silent as an oyster.
To show that the Review is here for
boodle only, and will resort to black
mail or any other method to get it,
we quote below three items from that
paper which appeared a short time
ago just after Sheriff Doan bad given
it three notices of tale to publish.
Here they are, and if they are not
sufficient to show the dishonest mode
of procedure or tactics of the Review
we can produce many more: ,
'Sheriff Doan, the sturdy conservator of
the peace of Columbia county, came down
from Bt. Helens last Wednesday and post
poned the Muekles tale one week. Nego
tiations arc pending for a settlement of this
ease before the sate, some statement of
which may be made later in this week's
Beview." Review, July 19.
"Sheriff Doan visited Rainier on official
business last Monday, snd shook hands
with his many friends who believe that
Columbia county has a sheriff that is O. K."
Review, August Mi.
"While waiting st the wharf for a boat
last Monday an old settler (a very influen
tial man) stepped od to Sheriff Doan, and
in the presence of ths writer said: 'Mr.
Doan. 1 don't endorse vour nolitics. bnt I
do endorse your conduct as an officer; I be

not disputa the statement, we may con'
cmae tost me om gentleman was correct.

Sheriff Doan is still cond noting bis
office in the same manner endorsed by
ine "influential mau" above referred
to which was concurred in at that
time by the Review. Why this won
derful change in so short a time.
is purely an attempt to bulldoze the
countv othcera into patronising the
mushroom sheet through fear of be
ing blackmailed. But snch attempt
will not swerve an honest official from
the pathway cf bis duty.

Quite a large crowd cams down from
Yankton to attend the Thanksgiving dance

K. J. Barues is busy covering his house

done an immense amount cf good to Mr.
Bumgardner.
(Should the Rainier Beview have pub
lished the delinquent tax list, which he is
so much crying about, and made as many
errors in its publication as it does in names
of people that do business with the county
court it could not possibly be legal: besides
ths Review is not of general circulation,
for not till recently (U now) was one
copy of it received at this pottoffice.

of Upper Clatskanie, on our streets
this week.
J. D. Nelson, one of our enterpris

with some fine apples tor delivery to

W. K. Tichenor has been supplying
some missing plank along the county
road between the suinglemtlt and the
steamer landing. Ho expects to be
hauling shingles soon.
On Monday last John Wallace of
Mist, was in town with some fine
porkers he was taking to market at
Astoria. It is quite a distauce to have
to go to sell pork.
One of tho families that recei t'y
moved into our town is moving out
again, headed for Portland. Perhaps
this may be all right, for if all who
come in remained here, wo would soon
have no room for new-comers, and if
a man is fortunate in striking some
thing elsewhere we congratulate him
on bis good luck and wish him success.
Mrs. Leamler R. Bnrnham, who
with ber husband, made their home
on a scow, now anchored at Wallace
island, died ou Tuesday night of ex
haustion, resulting from a chronic
bone disease that has kept np a dis
charge from her limb for years. She
was nearly 62 years of age and leaves
beside her husband, a son and daugh
ter nearly grown up. Her remains
were buried in the Maplewood ceme
tery on Thursday of this week.
A school bell is a useful thing in a
town to call time, but it is amusing to
see a few scholars who wait until the
boll rings the last time before they
start to join the procession thst forms
on the front steps. Tbey generally
get there, but they go into school blow
ing as though they bad to put on sev
eral pounds of extra steam to make
the time. It may be all right, but two
or three minutea of an earlier start
would pnt them in less danger of get
ting tbe "heaves or some other wind'
broken condition.
On Monday evening Mrs. M. A. Hall
arrived on tbe steamer from San JJi
ego, CaL, to visit her eon and family
in this city. 8 he is Dr. Hill's mother,
and came rather nnexpectedly to him
as he presumed she would prefer to
winter in southern California. She is
an active lady for one of her age, be
ing 77 years old, and is pleased with
what she sees about here. Tbe grand'
children, whom she never saw before
prove an especial attraction, and moth
er, son and daughter, as well as grand
children, enjoy tbe visit.
A case of very troublesome hemor
rhage from the cavity of an extracted
tooth occurred in the family of John
Wallace, of Mist. One of bis boys bad
gone up to Mr. Hodge's and bad
tooth taken out. After returning to
bis borne blood continued lo run from
the cavity for a day or more in spite
of any application the friends could
make to stop it. Naturally the family
became alarmed and on Sunday even'
ing sent lo our town lor medical as
sistance. Dr. Hall went out and suc
ceeded in a short time in putting an
end to the trouble.
On Tuesday the justice's court wss
so attractive that tbe room was crowd
ed to listen to the proceeding in the
Hill-Van case. It was only a civil suit
to collect something about $50, but
tbe fact of there being a well-known
attorney from St. Helens, Mr. Allen,
on one side, and our well-known attor
ney, W. H. Conyers, on the other side,
gave rise to tbe belief that there might
be something entertaining to listen to.
and that we might, as spectators, gath
er some points of use to our business
relations. In this we were not disap
pointed, for we listened and laughed.
and we think we got tbe pointers with
out having to fee an attorney, and
having a comfortable seat, which many
did not have, our only regret was te
bear tbe tustice agree to postpone tbe
case for two weeks.
Edwin Boss, tbe druggist, will tell
yon that no one is better qualified to
judge of tbe merits of an article than

ion on the experience of all who use
it. For this reason be wishes us to
publish the remarks of other dealers
about an article which be handles.
Messrs. C. F. Moore & Co., Newberg,
Oregon, says: "We sell more of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy than all otb
era put together, and it always gives
good satisfaction." Mr. J. F. Allen, of
Fox, Oregon, asys : "I believe Cbam
berlain's Congb Bemedy to be the
best I have handled." Mr. W. H.
Hitchcock, Columbus, Wash., says
"Chamberlain's Cough Bemedy sells
well and is highly praised by all who
use it."
