With this isrius this paper paste into the hands and nolo ownership of the undersigned, Mr. J. R. Beegle, re tirinf. the change taking place last Monday. la the future aa in the past, we will endeavor to give our reader the best rmner our limited circum atances will permit of, and in o doing we ask the assistance of all interested in the existence of a local paper. Po litically we have little to say at this ..... . 1. 1 ! .l .... a in connection are known by every resi dent in this county, and we will not waver from what we houeetly believe. It ie our intention to run a clean, pro gressive psper in the interest of Co? lumbia county our home and to that end we will be found lending our effort. The people of this county have treated us. with creat consid eration in many respects, for all of which we are truly grately, and in the future we hope to merit tbe same friendly treatment we have received in the past. With these few words we disappear at the door of our sanctum and cheerfully take up the task of fur nishing you a good local paper. Yours very sincerely, David Datis. From certain quarters we hear ap -peals for harmony in the republican ranks of Oregon. Serious looking gen tlemen are solemnly singing tnat aoie- ful, peaceful hymn, "bow sweet is unity." Aud they don't know hew tunny they are. '1 lie republican party in Oreeon" la doin very well, thank yoa. It is only those who are out of harmony with the party that are so loudly clamoring for harmony. "Tbe regiment is out of step with me," cries the limping soldier, but his complaint is unheeded, and thoae who bear him only smile. The republican party of Oregon is not worrying about har mony. The party is too big to miss tuneless com plainer, or to be worried by them. . . COCNTT COURT. Proceedings of the November Term of County Comrt In Full.

Mrs. Wm. Bnrr Is spending little time at Ball's, out on the riyvr. K. 0. Blackford spent a few days up th river last week, report says, ou official business. Sam Tedford Is acting deputy road super visor, and trying to uu som wora on uie Nehalem road. Henry Liggett left town last week to try his fortunes In Eastern Oregon, probably about Baker City, Adam Barr shipped out an fin a lot ot apples last week as on would wish to handle or use, iner were w uuxoa m shipment. A rather unsightly looking bsrn on a corner lot on front street has been torn down and given place to a fouudtttion for a dwelling house whkh K. ti. Harlow is build ing for Dr. Hall. Enos Hanklns tins caught th moving fever, and is going to spend ibe wiuter witn his brother in Malheur county. Enos is a familiar figure, and tils straw hat will be missed as uiuc as niniseu. A. M. Tichenor proposes to try California climate this winter, and took his departure last Friday evening lor that purpose. Uncut went uh.nir as far as Portland, leav ing Steve in charge of government affairs uutu Monday eveumg. Wallace Edmrton has rone to Eastern Oregon to try the effects of a change of climate. Walley haa been an invalid re ceatlv and feel impelled to change his surroundings in hopes of physical improve-' mem. mat ma uupva uiaj nimmuu the wisb of bis friends. W. A. Edgerlon returned from Astoria, Oreeon. last week, and thinks be has found off in Malheur county a fine business loca tion. He will probably move there iu the near future, accompanied by Ed. Page and family, with the stock of goods now in the postotnee ouiiaing. rtewuino jr irvua bye yet. remembering that "There's many a slip," etc Winnie damrhtar of J. I). Nelson. Who has been at the hospital at Portland for so rue time, wss brought back to die a few days ago, and breathed ber last at tbe Home hotel before getting to her father's. She wus a sufferer for years from soms stomach trouble, thought to be cancerous in char acter, thoogh only about 16 years old at the tun ji ner ueatn. At tba council meeting Tuesday evening of last week, A. M. Tichenor was granted leave of absence instead of being allowed to tender bis resignation as mayor, and A. a. Haines was selected to officiate aa acting mayor during his absence. Th council are still wraatUos with the water problem with a fair prospect of success lu the near future. Tt Is nerhana not too let to mention tbe social held at Kratx ball Saturday evening a week ago. It was one of tbe most enjoy able affairs of the kind given lor som time. Mrs. Crosbv. aa a performer on th violin, and Miss Myrtle Jones, as a vocalist, sus tained their reputation ana couiriDuiaa largely to the evenings enjoyment Annie Eniriiah was nresent with ber violin and played two selections which were well re ceived, in sauilion to ine musical iraiurve, a few recitations were introduced and some exercises that kept the crowd busy with pen and pencil for half an hour. Refresh ments were served to strengthen th audi ence after their mental effort. After this it was a go-as-you-please until about 11:30, when tbe last of the crowd left for home. There was a net financial result from an admission fee amounting to nearlr $13.00 whicb was given the resident pastor, Mr. Shannon. A man's benevolent intention sometimes Jet him into trouble. Dan Dixon keeps two ogs, oh fortunately, and last Friday morn ing before daylight they got to fighting. In the interest of peace, Dan jumped out of bed, and, without waiting the formality of robing himself, proceeded to settle th dis pute outside. Such was his bast to accom plish his bensvolent purpose that be stepped out regardless of consequences, until all of a sudden the rest of the family heard such a yell from Daniel as to make thsm think the dogs were chewing him up. His wife arrived tn the scene first, and discovering bis cans of anguish, got bold of an old bandl and drew two teeth of a rasty iron garden rake out of his foot that be bad unluckily stepped en. His father and mother were both alarmed and hastened to the scene, but were unable .to do more than express sympathy and assist in getting Dsn into the bouse. The doctor was called and tbe foot made as comfortable as possi ble, but Dsn has suffered a great deal of pain since. Moral: Never keep two dogs; they do not pay th trouble and expens, and they do sometimes fight. VEBNOS1A GLEANINGS. Peace has been partially restored in this vicinity.
