Th republican party hat always been a party of tbs people, desiring their success and, working Tor us pro motion. All of its legislation hot bran directed to the promotion ol industrial Activity nd it bit always pointed with pride to increamce wealth and advanc ing WHces.as the greatest achievement of its legislative and administrative ability, It hopes for better things and always works to build up and not to tear down ami demoralize. Boms yeara since an effort was made to stock Oregon stream with Carp, and the attempt proved highly satis factory. Indiana streams were stocked with the fish, and this is thj plaint of ft paper from that state : "No monu pient will ever be erected to the man who suggested that the Indian streams be stocked with carp, but a vot of thanks and a medal are await ing tha person that can suggest how the streams can be rid of them." A. POLL of tha United States senate bows that nearly two-thirds of its members are unqualifiedly in favor of the ratification of the treaty with the Hawaiian islands providing for annex ation. By Christmas the picturesque and fruitful isles of the Kanakas will be under the dominion of Uncle Bam, nd the stars and stripes will float proudly under tbs tropical sky, never again to be hauled down by any "para mount" personal representative of a president. Thb advance in the price of char ters, owing to scarcity of shipping on the Pacific coast, is estimated at ten cents a bushel on the Oregon wheat crop. In other words, with plenty of shipping, and the sharp competition of last year, farmers would receive ten cents a bushel more for their wheat. The opening ot the Nicaragua canal would not only supply the competi tion, but the great reduction of sailing distance wonld enable ships to carry at much lower figures than ever before. Nirr to the construction of the Nicaragua canal, there is nothing which would be so fortunate for the Pacifia coast at this time as the devel opment of Alaska. The gold discov eries will probably attract such a horde of people within the next two or three years, that its period of normal devel opment will be hastened by perhaps half century. Like California, in the days of forty-nine, the eyes of the whole world have been drawn by the seductive glitter of gold in Alaska's direction. THAKKSomua of 1897 has come nd gone, and we firmly believe the people of this state came nearer being able to return thanks with a gracious pint than has been the case for sev eral years. The people are in a more prosperous oondition, wish brighter prospects lor lue future, wrought by many acceptable changes, and they returned thanks with much emotion, probably, in thousands of cases. The day was observed in every household in our city, and the expression was freely given that we bad many things to be thankful for. Keunions of sep arated families brought cheer to many hearts and gladdened the homes that had long seen gloom. Id fact our whole Union rejoiced. THB Boston Herald calls attention to the important fact that the stock of gold now in the United States is the largest ever held here. On November 1, according to lbs treasury estimate, the amount of gold, coin and bullion hi the country was $712,660,417. The Herald points out that tbis broke the record, the largest previous showing at the beginning of a month being that of November 1, 1888, which was (711,705,050. This is an encouraging circumstance. In the treasury, as well as elsewhere, the stock of gold is rising. The treasury fund has gone above the 1154,000,000 mark, and the drift is steadily upward. These are facts which should be kept before the country. They are bull factors of great consequence. Teachers of district schools in this county should encourage their pupils in every possible way. One most ef fective manner is to sen J to the local paper a report of the oondition of yonr school and the standing of the pupils each month. Too often this import ant part of the teacher's duty is over looked, a fact which school directors should inquire into. Tbis doty should be one of the requirements by" the school board when hiring a teacher, because it encourages the, pupil and he or she will make a greater ef fort to be noticed as among the best in the school. There is no one, prob ably, who does not like a favorable mention in the newspaper, and cer tainly that may be expected to exist to a greater degree among the younger of us. The comity papers, each and all, perhaps, wonld gladly publish, tha school reports, which have a double effect. They not only encourage the pupil bat they encourage the parent, and with the latter inspire them to greater effort in assisting their little ones that they may be noticed as among the brightest. In fact, all the way through, the whole community receives a benefit. It will create greater interest in many ways and inspire our people with a sense of the greatest de mnd of the day tetter school facili ties and a greater degree of education, iuiluelml uud otherwise. COLUMBIA COUNTY'S HEEDS. Muoh may be Said in regard to the resources of Columbia couiity, and all that U said may be true, but there is muoh work to bo done before we can boast too sroally of our superioritv. Our resources are of inestimable value, but wo must develop them. As an ag ricultural dititrtat Columbia county has no superior iti the state, and would rank eveu higher were our farms in a higher state of cultivation, which will rapidly follow the improvement of the times aud an increased domtuid for our lumber and shingles, the ningni tude of which scatcely has a limit. Eventually we will be classed among the greatest producers ia the state of the products of the farm, but at pre eut there is another possession of ours which must claim a pari our attention until wo have created a market fur our lumber and shingles, which we firmly heliove will be witnessed in the next iwo years, and then we can claim the commercial importance which is our due. The summary statement of Assessor W bite, which was published in this paper on the 8th of last month, showed a total acreage of non-tillable land of 840,721 acres against 12,161 acres of tillab! land. From this state ment you will readily perceive what there is for us to do. You will see that there are about 30 acres of non-tillable land to one of tillable land wiihiu our county. Our commercial import ance lies not so much in our agricul tural possibilities as it does in the cre ation of a market for our timber. Per baps Columbia, Clatsop aud Tillamook counties contain one-third of the piue and cedar timber of our stale. Hence it is readily to be seen that in order fur us to prosper in a degree to place our importance where it belongs we must have a market for uur timber. The fact is becoming more apparent each year that on; possessions are de serving of more than a passing notice, and within another two or three years Columbia county will reap a beautiful reward for her long years of waiting. Once another demand for our timber is created then will a quickened pulsa tion exist within the heart of our in dustries, and this done we will be the borne of more activity than any county in the state. In this connection it is to be said too. that progress must be made in our farming sections, for once our other industries receivean impetus then will there be a greater and stead ier demand for our farm products. By all means, however, do cot destroy the valuable traiber you possess, aud by all means do not deter the improve ment of your farm. ' Both these Bug gestions go band in band, because there is scarcely a one-hundred and- aixty-acre tract of partly improved land in the county that does not con tain from one to fifty acres of slashed timber, and this is where the improve ment should be made. Save your tim ber, but put your other land in a prime st,ue of cultivation, and then you will be ready to meet the two great coming demands. , DIVERSIFY TBS TRAINING. Some time since a miscellaneous ar ticle appeared in these columns in re gard to industrial education. The writer fully demonstrated the fact that more attention should be given the different parts of industrial training in the schoolroom, which, since the idea is receiving some attention by prominent educators, we may branch out and offer new fields in which to train the children. One of the im portant features of industrial training in the schoolroom, in our opinion, is the teaching of belter methods of road building. This is an absorbing question in Columbia county, all classes and professions being inter ested it it. With all respect for the general policy of our educational in stitutions, it is proper to say that much is taught which has not the practical value of soms other branches which are taught at present only in the rough school of experience. It is a very nice thing for a young lady to understand music and painting, it is even desirable that she be able to speak several languages, so long as English is one of them, but when that young lady finds herself the wife of a common, everyday, human man, and the mother of several healthy children she may regret that it is impossible to swap culture for crackers. To trans late Latin into English is good if the translator can also translate flour into bread. If but one of the accomplish ments is to be had the choice should be easily made. A person may be rich (in money) but riches "make pin ions for themselves to fly."' The only wealth which neither time nor fate ran chang is that which is stored away in the form of practical knowledge. We are glad to notice that mnch is being done in the way of teaching the rudiments of road building in the ehools of Eastern states. "The New Sotnh," too, is beginning to know that roads are an important fact jr in the development of any section, and our state and county have been wrestling with the question for many years, without any very great degree of suc cess, we are sorry to say. True, tim bered countries like Northwestern Or egon, where such quantities of precip itation maintain the greater part of the year, make good roads difficult thing to keep up. But we believe tbe lime is not far distant when our peo plo will unite on some practical meth od, and its successful execution will be the result. Hoad building is fully equal in importance to anything now taught in schools, and infinitely more important than much that is given greater prominence. A Kentucky paper which has for a long time been trying to save the democratic party, "all by itself," has given up the fight since the party took tip the salvation business the other day. The editorial which an nounces the abandonment of the enterprise is a curiosity in circnmlocii' tion, and a fine specimen of trying to "come down," while maintaining the appearance of stilt roosting high. Properly translated it would read about this way: "We have done our best, but we fear that notwithstanding our splendid efforts everything is going to the devil; but we feel it a duty to get back in the band wagon and go to the devil with the old party, and all its sins, provided we are given dilettante considcration'and are allowed to return to a seat al the first table. Of course we think this much ought to bo accorded to ua for old time sake; but tbe. fact is we have to no along if . we only net the scraps. We're out of meat. ' A NATURAI lUl-UOCK. St. HELitNs, Nv.

Kindly Remembered. Last Sunday afternoon Mrs. M. 0. Gray who had been quite sick for several day?, was called on by a host of young friends, who brought beautiful boquets and pre- swniea mem as an expression 01 svmpmnv. Flowers und happy fuces tilled the room in deliance of eVtr,vtliiiiK pert lining to gloom or sadness, and as each presented the token, which conveyed what words could not, It sent toy to the heart and brouuht forth word of deep gratitude. Although the flowers may fade and lose their fragrance, the time of their coming and the message uiey do re win uever be torgotten. Ons Intkbbstid, CliATSKAME NOTES. J. I.
