Bhelley, who goes about the country spending tier time ana money (or tho ipeoml cooa or humanity, should receive liber! encouragement at the hands of the public. , " School Opinio. The sprint term of our city school opened last Monde with Prof. Baker In charge. Mr. Baker cornea well recommended, and the present term of sshool promises to be ai profitable hi the one juit closed by Mr. Uaee, which was said to have been the most profitable one taught here for several yeara. Mr. Oaae la teach ing the Houlton school at present, and that, too, la progressing uioely "Ma Ovibdoard." There was a great deal of exoitement created among the fishermen at the mouth of Lewis river Tuesday morning as the ateamer Mascot came down from Kinafleld, She was lust emerging from Lake river and a man, whose name we have beon unable to leara, stepped upon the railing on the cabin deck of the steam er and deliberately Jumped,ovarboard, Captain Lee hallowed to some flsher men near by to pick up the mao, which they did, and who, it was learned, wsa orasy. What was done with him we did uot learn. Fibhirmix Doing Will. While the strike is in progress on the lower river, fishermen at this plaoe have been doing vary well. Day or night makes little difference to them because the. water is at a good stage to fish. Last Friday morning the Telephone took from the wharf at this place over seven tons of salmon consigned to down river canneries. Monday morning an other consignment of aver six tons was ahlpped on the same steamer. In addition to this quite an amount ia ahipped to Portland each day on other steamers. Altogether there le a large amount of money paid oat bore daily lor Dsn. . Bint for Distinction. Last Tues day aa the steamers Thompson and Shaver wore attempting to land at Caplea a disastrous collision was nar rowly averted. The Shaver had whis tled for the landing, and the Thomp son attempted to take the landing ahead of the Shaver, and in so doing she came down stream at almost full till and crashed into the Shaver. Her rata of apeed was so high that she did not stop until she struck the beach, where she hung hard and fast. The affair happenedjio quickly that few of the passengers anew anything about it until all danger waa passed. The Shaver afterward went back and towed the Thompson off the beach, without which the latter would have been de layed several hours, probably. CENTRAL COMMITTEE Ml ITS. Pur- auant to agreement at a previous meet ing, the central committee of the re publican party of Columbia county met at Clatskanie laat Monday after noon. Those In attendance wereT. C. Watts, of Deer Mand ; Ed Elliott, of Marshland; O. T. Daywalt, of Ne iialem ; S. B. Rose, . of Auburn ; E. 0. Blackford, of Clatskanie ; W. M. Perry, of Rainier; and D. Davis, of Union. Among other matters which came be fore the committee was the wilhJrawal from the ticket of Miles 8beeirn, the nominee for coroner. The name of Dr. A. P. McLaren, of Rainier, waa presented, and by the committee nom inated to fill the office of coroner on the republican ticket. Other detail matters we'o attended to and the com mitteemen returned to their homes Tuesday. For a Rroatta. A citixen'a meet ing waa held Monday eveuing at the courthouse to discuss the question of a regatta at this place during the coming- summer. W, B. Dillard aoted aa chairman and II. Allen secretary. Mr. Dillard stated the object for which the meeting bad been called and explained at some length the advisability of holding a regatta at this place, after which a committee of Ave, tucluding the chairman of the meeting, was ap pointed to look into the proposition and report at the next meeting, which is to be held next Monday evening in the council chamber at 7 :30 o'clock. The committee are W. B. Dillard, J. R. Beegle, Thomaa Cooper, Jacob George and Jamea Muokle. It ia be lieved that the proposed regatta can be made a success if the citixens will take aa interest in the matter. Strike Still Ok. The fishermen's atrike still coutinuee with no visible prospect of an early settlement. Meantime fishing goea right along at thie plaoe unmolested, and good catch es are made almost every day. Some of those fishing here are union men and eome are not, but be that as it may, the fishing grounds in this vicin ity are occupied day and night. Some little excitement was caused here last Wt'dnesday when a report came from down the river that a company of the atrikers were on their way up the river and had reached Mayger, and had been destroying fishing gear wherever found in use, and also confiscating any fish found in boats. During the past week there has been aa occasional missionary from the fishermen's union at Astoria in this place for the osten sible purpose of persuading those en gaged in fishing here to desist until such time as the strike ia aattled, but all efforts in that direction have proven futile, ainoe fishing goea on the same very day. It is not believed the atrike will be of long duration, how ever, as it ia generally conceded that the packers can well afford to pay the price asked and atill make a hand aome profit. The season ia rapidly passiug by, so that the packers cannot afford to hold out much longer. There haa seldom been a aeason in the his tory of the canning business when the packers did not declare they could not afford to pay the price asked, yet in nearly every instance they did pay the price and made money, and no doubt history will repeat Itself this year.

A Convincing Argument la Favor of High Proteotton-ElnthBsl-alto Heating. The spring campaign is now well under way in this county, and the people of Clatsksnie held their firat political meeting last Tuesday eve ning, and one can truly say the pot is boiling. The large hall of E. W. Con yers was packed with anxious listeners to the ronvincing argument of Mr. Cleeton, who for one hour and a half produced the most convincing line of argument yet presented to the people of that city. Certainly there is suffi cient subject matter for republican argument, and Mr. Cleeton ia the one to quickly grasp the situation and show ud fallaoiea which do now exist and which have existed for nearly four yeara. He made his argument strictly on the question of protection, as that certainly ia the paramount la- sue before the American people today. Mr. Cleeton concluded his argument by heartily endorsing the action of the lata elate republican convention on financial matters, and he appealed to the republicans of that precinct to stand by and support their ticket first, list and all' the time. Mr. Cleeton, like all other republicans in the county, saya their ticket will be elected this year by a handsome msjority, not merely because of tbe superiority of its personnel, but because it la repub lican, and that ia what the people of ibis country are now clamoring for. They want republicans in office be cause they have faith in them as men, because they have been trid and found not wanting, and principally be cause they are republicans, for to that Jiarty do the people look for relief rom tbe free trade predicament in which the country ia now writhing.

'DR; CREAM ft Most Perfect Made. 40 Years the Standard, THE DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLE As Enunciated by the Oregon Democracy. They Declare for the Free Coinage of Sliver at Ratio of 16 to 1 Their Nominations. Tbe democratic slsteconventlon was held In Portland on Thursday and Frldsy of last week, and It appears that It was not more harmonious than the republican con vention bold at the same time, the principal light being on the money question, which resulted in the platform declaring for the free coinage ef silver at the ratio of 10 to 1. After two days deliberation the following ticket was placed In nomination: For supreme judge, John Burnett of Ben ton county; congressman, flrt district, Jeff erson Myers of Linn county; second district, A. B. Bennett of Wasco county. Delegates to the national convention were W. F. Butcher, J. W. Howard. L. P. Mnlllnlx. M. A. Miller, J. D. McKinnon. Charles Nlckell. J. H. Townsend end J. Welch. Presiden tial electors-Dr. Oglesby, J. J. Whitney, Edward Kilfeather and J. U. Carroll. Knr joint senator, Columbia, Tillamook and Washington W. II. Dillard. For district attorney, 6th judicial district J. E. Hedges. THg rLATFOStf ADOPTED. The democratic party of tbe state of Ore gon, in convention assembled, do make, de clare and adopt the following resolutions: First Whereas, the present depressed condition of tbe country and the shrinkage of values are largely due to tbe financial system which has controlled tbe nation for mors than twenty years last past, we, the democracy of the state of Oregon, hereby declare ourselves as unalterably opposed to the single gold standard, and demand the immediate return to tbe constitutional standard of gold and silver by the restora tion by tbe general government independ ently of any foreign power, of tbe unre stricted coinage of both gold and silver into standard money at tbe ratio of 16 to 1, and upon terms of exact equality, as they ex isted prior to 1873, tbe silver coin to be a full legal tender equally wltb gold, for all debts and does, public and private, and we denounce all discrimination by tbe govern ment against either gold or silver euriency of the country. We demand that the sec retary of the treasury shall coin into stand ard silver dollars, as soon as practicable all tbe silver bullion now in the treasury of the United 8tates, which represents the silver seigniorage or coinage profit to the govern ment; also all silver bullion that may here after be offered for coinage. "Second We demand tbe repeal of all specific contract laws, state and national. "Third We favor the construction of tbe N'lcsragaan canal, and its control by tbe general government. "Fourth We are In favor of a tariff for revenue only, so adjusted that it shall effect alike eur commerce, our agriculture, oar labor and eur manufacture. "Fifth We demand of tbe general gov ernment rigid enforcement of the Monroe doctrine. "Sixth We demand a reduction of all salaries, federal and state, commensurate with the depressed condition of the conn- try; that the compensation of all state of ficers shall be kept strictly within the letter of the constitution; that all laws now ex isting providing extra fees or compensation for any duty or senrice imposed by law upon such offices shall be repealed. "8eventhWe demand the repeal of the laws creating the railroad commission, and all other useless commissions. "Eighth We Instruct our delegates elec ted to represent us in the national eenven to support only a candidate in favor of the free ana unlimited coinage of silver at tbe ratio of 16 to 1. "Ninth We demand the reenactment of the mortgage tax law, and the amendment of our assessment laws so that all recorded indebtedness of the taxpayers shall be de ducted from his assessment. "Tenth We denounce the extrayugant acts of tbe last legislature as co-extensive with fraud, jobbery, and squandering of ths people s money, and we censure and bold the republican majority responsible for the present condition of our public debt and high rate of taxation. "Eleventh We favor judicious expendi ture of the public money for the purpose of opening up and improving our waterways and harbors. Twelfth Religions difference should find no place in American politics, and the democratic party is unalterably opposed to the spirit of Intolerant bigotry fostered for political purposes by those who seek to breed discord and animosities among tbe citixens of the public; secret political bod ies are a curse to party, state and nation. We heartily welcome the assistance of all good citixens who will co-operate ia the suppression of any political movement or ganised for religious prescription. "Thirteenth Resolved, that we, the dem ocratic party of the state of Oregon la con vention assembled, hereby earnestly ask the congress of the United States to take up the bills now pending before your re spective bodies, vis: The honse of repre sentatives and the senate of the United States, providing for a snrvlval of pension of the Indian war veterans of the United States, and pass said bills. "Fourteenth We favor the preservation of the salmon Industry of Ibe state by abol ishing all flshtraps, fishwheels and small- mesh gear, and denounce the republican party of the state for refusing to keep Its pledge to afford such argent relief."
