"AFTER TBE OTHER FELLER."
"Ali : bee pardon I" said the Review
man a few days seo when Sheriff
Dosrt called st the office and demended
ftroof of the accusations made in that
aper during the past month, with
speciat reference to the Upton case
and the tax list. "It fa Becglo and
the other 'fullers' we are punching
and not you, Mr. Doan;" says the
great apostle of populism, Herman,
who beiraa this war of worda by an
Unwarranted attack upon this paper a
few Weeks ago. Herman now squeals,
a is his true nature, and says it is
"unprofeMionar for Th Mist to de
fend itself. Well. really.it is unueces
sary, and very few people do, pay any
attention to what the Utile spasmodic
has to v, but since Populist Herman
made the accusations he has against
the county officers and in the same
paper acknowledges he knows nothing
bout county atiaira, it is our just so
those maliciously accused for this
tiarjer to set the public aright in the
premises. Further, if Herman knows
nothing about county affairs he should
post himself before making such state
ments as he has lately; and still
further, if it is "Beegle and the other
fellers'" he is after why don't he come
up and make his demands in person,
since it is usually customary when a
man wants any thing to ak for it T
No doubt he could beacomniouatecL
Again the Review mnn went into
another spasm, and this is what he
raid when be came to: "It any person
commits a trifling offense a warrant is
sworn out by the prosecuting attorney
that cannot read his duty clear and
the sheriff serves them, like in the
Upton case, the county pays the bill,
and ever member makes something
out of the deal. Every little service is
charged doubly for, and soon the
county will be held up in daylight."
Will the Review please slate what
was charged doubly tort A failure to
do so will be proof of falsehood.
The Review's statement in regard to
what it offered to print the tax list for
is also untrue. It never offered to
io the work for $75 or anr other sum.
The editor of that paper asked Sheriff
Doan for the tax list and when the
sheriff asked him what be would
charge, answered that he "would not
cut prices." Sheriff Doan is able to
speak for himself upon this poiut.
The Mist simply mentions these
things in order that people may not
be misled by tbe willful prevaricator
who runs the Review, and in order
that those interested may look into
tbe matter for themselves. Tbk Mist
also nrges the closest investigation of
any assertion made by it regarding
public questions or the acts of'any
public official. The court records are
here sod are open to anyone who de
sires to look them over ; so that there
is no excuse for any one being deceived
by misrepresentation.
TBE LOT OF TBE FARMER.
The report of the secretary of agri
culture contaius some facts and tig'
ures which present the lot of tbe farm
er in a very encouraging light. So
much has been said by the celamityites
in receul years about the allege! bur
deus and distresses if the crop-raising
classes that it ie refreshing to read
something of the opposite character,
and to learn from the official statistics
that tbe most of this wailing has been
nothing but lying. This report shows,
to begin with, that tbe farms of the
United States have an average value,
including implements, of 94UUU for a
family averaging six persons. These
farms have fed the owners and their
families and 40,000,000 dwellers in
towns and cities, besides supplying
1500,000,000 worth of products for for
eign consumers, annuslly. Tbe mort
gages on farm values aggregate only
16 per cent that is to ssy, there is
an incumbrance of about flow on
each 110,000 of rural real estate
which is less than in any other line of
industry or on any other form of prop
ery ; and the value of farm lands is
steadily increasing and must continue
to do so as tbe population increases,
which is not true of manufacturing
plants and other kinds of mortgaged
properly. "How can anyone dare to
assert," the secretary says, in view of
such facta, "that farming is generally
unremunerative and unsatisfactory to
those who intelligently follow it?"
It is true that agriculture has suf
fered in common with other kinds of
business by reason of the prevailing
- depression, and prices have gone down
in some instances almost, if not quite,
to the point of tbe cost of production ;
but, all things considered, the farmers
have probably fared better than any
other element of the population. They
have been sure of a living in any
event, and their profits have not been
lessened in an equal ratio, on the
whole, with those of merchants, man
ufacturers and general traders. The
pessimistic orators and demagogic
vote seekers have led them to believe
that they are bearing all the misfor
tunes of the country, while other
classes were prosperous at their ex
pense ; and they have gone off with
that falacy in their heads and joined
tbe populists. But they are learning
how they have been deceived, an J what
little reason they have, comparatively
spesking, for complaint and lamenta
tion. The report of the secretary of
agriculture will help to confirm them
in their present disposition to take a
cheerful view of things, and to refrain
from the folly of voting the populist
ticket for the purpose of helping their
condition. They can readily see from
the statistics therein presented that
they are by no means the leading
debtor class in proportion to the value
of their property, but that they have
reason to be thankful that they are
not so badly off in tbst respect as the
bankers, for instance, and the owners
of railroad stocks. Their lot, in short,
is one of more than average comfort
and happiness, snd their prospects for
gaining a compentency are better than
those of men engsged in any other
form of industry.

For the year jut ended the amount
of litigstion filt-d in the circuit court
of this county has been nearly one-1
half in excess of what It was the pi
ceding year. Tb'a will account in
some degree for the additional circuit
court expense. It is also a matter ,m
record that the fees for recording for
the year ending July 1. 1895, were
Over 30 per cent in excess of what they
were for the yesr ending July 1, 1894,
and these fees tor the latter year have
gone into the county treasury iustead
of into Hie pocket of the clerk as here
tofore.
Dukino the first part of President
Cleveland's term he nominated Rufus
W. Peckham. of New York, to be asso
ciate justice of the supreme court, but
through the opposittouof Senator Hill
(he senate refused to confirm tbe ap
pointment. Recently, however, the
president again named l'eclilmm to
the vacancy caused by the death of
Justice Jackson, which appointment
waa confirmed by the senate Monday,
Senator Hill concurring.
Skxatob Lodqc says that during
his recent visit to England he was told
more than once that ths woolen man
ufactures of Bradford had been saved
by the Wilson bill. "I have no grudge
against the people of Bradford," he
adds, "but I prefer that those woolens
should be made in the United States."
This is the feeling of a decided major
ity of the American people, which is
to say that they want restoration of
the republican tariff policy.
The Sentinel still insists that the
county paid back to Dibblee the
amount of bis (ax paid to Meeker be
sides giving him credit for tbe smouul
on the roll. The man who will dis
pute the records, and when shown his
error will reassert the falsehood, does
not possess one particle of that quality
known as manhood. What manner
of man is this the people of Fittsburg
have in charge of their public school T
.. "Would The Mist like a chapter on
republican defalcations in Columbia
county?" Sentinel. Thb Mist does
not object. Place them side by side
with populist defalcations ss soon as
you like. In this connection we might
ask : Would the editor of the Sentinel
like a chapter ou his psst history? We
are prepared to give it upon his re
quest. Dcrbawt, the convicted murder of
Blanche Lamont in San Francisco, has
been denied a new trial by Judge Mur
phy, and now the only hope left for
tbe accused man is in the supreme
court's disposition to reverse the de
cision of the lower court.
Confessed tbe Murder.
0gon Citt. Or., Dec 9. Charles Mont
gomery surrendered himself to the sheriff
this afternoon, saying he had shot and
killed Hiram Hall, a mile from town on
the west side of the river, in order to escape
being robbed. Hall's body was found
where designated by Montgomery and
brought to town. Montgomery, appar
ently, bad been under tbe influence of Hall
for weeks, snd wss induced to mortgage
land to get money for both to use on Bilets
reservation lands. Three hundred dollars
had disappeared and Montgomery thought
Hall had stolen it, snd was trying to get
1300 more, which he bad Hall is rep
resented to hare been a tough character.
Both bad been drinking much together
lately.
The Stearns Case.
Salim, Or.. Dec. 9. In the supreme com t
today the ease of the State, respondent, vs.
L. M. Stearns, appelant, Inm Columbia
county, was reversed. Opinion by Bean,
chief justice. The defendant, 8tearns, was
convicted by the lower court and sentenced
to a term in the penitentiary for the crime
of embezzlement. The indictment upon
which he was convicted set out that the de
fendant, as solicitor snd agent of the Slate
Insurance Company, collected premiums
to the amount of (14.15, and failed to ac
count for the same. The opinion says that
ths allegation that the defendant received
premiums that he failed to turn over to the
company, according to the nature of the
trust, is not sn allegation that such money
was in fact the property of the company.
The indictment failing to negative the own
ership In the defendant or allege that the
nviuey said tobsve been embezzled wss the
property of otber than the defendant, it is
held no crime is established and therefore
the judgment is reversed.
Should be Many Competitors.
Salim, Or., Dec. 2, 1895.
"That in order to instil in the minds of
the rising generation a state pride that
would result in s patriotic snpport of state
institutions, and to bring the objects of the
associations before the families of ths
Northwest, snd thst a doe sense of the im
portance of patronizing home industries
may be firmly planted in ths minds of tbe
boys and girls of the state, it was decided
the association would offer three prizes.
One of f 15, one of $10 and one of $5, to ths
best three original compositions sent in by
ttie school children of Oregon nnder fifteen
years of age, the subject being 'The bene
fits of Patronizing Home Manufacturers.'
The compositions must be ia the hands of
. C. liasten, secretary, room 7, Chamber
of Commerce building. Portland, Oregon,
on or before January 10, 1896, and the prizes
will be awarded by the executive committee
of the association, and published with tbe
names of the authors." Ws have the honor
to be yours very truly,

TO TBS TKACBTSBS Of OaEOOX.
Tbe above letter was received from the
Manufacturers' Association of the North
west, and firmly believing that the purpose
is a noble one, and will be productive of
mnch good in awakening an interest among
the pupils of the schools throughout tbe
stale, I very much desire that you make it
known to the pupils in the various schools
nnder your supervision. v
Urge upon the pupils to make an effort
for the prize, assuring them that though
they may f nil for the prize, the benefit to
be derived from the effort will mare than
compensate them. O. M. Iswis,
Stats Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Electric Bitters,
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed, when ths languid exhausted feel
ing prevails, when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need of a tonic and altera
tive is felt. A prompt use of this medicine
has often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will set more
surely in counteracting and freeing tbe
system from the malarial poison. Ilead-
ache, indigestion, constipation, dizziness
yield to Klectric Bitters. 60c snd 11.00 per

this year was taken with gill nets. 12 per
cent with seins, 19 per cent with traps and
I per cent with wheels."
Another interesting feature of the report
is that referring to tbe salmin-c.iii factory,
which this year manufacture I 17,000,000
salmon cans, embrsciiig sixteen different
varieties, employed 100 peop;e ( white labor.)

were of American manufacture; also ths
