Tim iuipnrtanca of - this in(!tion ohoulil ctauoe every rfifmblioiin to be on the alurt, and work for the won of his tiariy. The oulv wv in insula the pimple good govern man t, is 10 ewai a republican administration irom top to bottom. m: J "Too Lath. Tha town of j'ttiiiu oat a woolen mill that bo recently received to many order tliitt i na Men found necessary to run the unit utty ami nignc, and to atld 40 em loy to hi force.

Indication! is Umatilla. The in' -dicalion ia that Umatilla county will have another enormou crop next year. All farmer of authority ooite in the declaration that the weather of the lt few week ha been exactly like the weather of a year ago, when nature laid the foundation for the great crop or 1BU7. II tint prove true and another niammeth yield be obtained there will be no limit t' the tide of prosperity that will wtnp over that locality. The production thia year, including the proceed from the ale of ttock and other product of the farm, amounted to a per capita wealth f 300,or about 41S0O to every fnan in the county. Doubt tli it amount, and next year ' there would not be a tingle mortgage on Umatilla real eiUto, and evvry resident would be free from all future financial trouble. Everything it fair ly on the road to the realisation of tht hope. ..: LOOUINO AND LlTMDKft COMTaACT. P. 0.

Enough timber will be furnished under the contract to fill two of the big Stella raft. - That's am Eaby One.

The stock is complete iu every detail, and the managers ar always willing to show the goods. The regular January term of county court was convened bore . Wednesday morning by Judge Doan. Matters re quiring the attention of the court are numerous, always, at tha January term, and many preliminaries have to be gona through before the board cun settle down to hard labor.

It is tha iuteutioQ to enlarge and ) otherwise improve the paper, making it a medium through which tiie people j of the state can get all the stat news, and through which political utluirt in the state will be reviewed in an inv partial milliner.

' Martin Iluvidon, of Vernonia, Wat in town Monday aud Tuesday of this Week looking after interests which ho ouiini.It.-ia vitiU.'in reaurd to city aov- rnmonttii piijirs of Vernonia, Mr. Davison, it will bo remembered, was a Candidate for the l(iulattir on the populist ticket in 181)1, but for wn of vote did not reuch the goal, lie lint been contidDred at all timet by the people 01 uoiumbia county at a popu list, but in conversation with a Mist reporter during his vit here, remarked that if "the gang" (something we know nothing about) tinted tha ticket In the next popnliat convention he would tee to It that the ticket did not receive tha individual support of the party. Mr. Davison's remark brought to our comprehension new departures in pop ulist politics. We were always of the ooinion tliat populist were ruled by the wish of the majority, but it teems that slates are slated and tickets tick eted with them n i said to be the cane with other political parties. Mr. Dav ison declare he will wage "war to the teeth" in the populist camp if "the gang" railroad the ticket thi year, anil from ms conversation would im gioe he lint quite a following. At all eventt the action at the next populist convention will be looked upon with some degree or interest by populists. The semi annual Installation of of ficer! of Avon lodge. Knights of Pyth ias of thin city, wa held Tuesday evening. The ceremoniee were public so far as members' families were -con cerned, and a large crowd wat present. After these ceremonies of tha Knightt were concluded the lodge was declared at eaBe, and member of Ava Temple Katnoone outer took" poslettion and held their semi-annual installation. During this interim of perhaps an hour, three or four enthusiastic Knights busied tbemtelvee preparing a lunch, which they, unbeknown to tha sisters, qnietly carried to the ante room, and, when tbe proper time came, proceeded to serve sandwiches and coffee. This interesting feature of tbe eveoing'saotertainmout required about an uourf time, after which, speeches were mads by retinae and incoming officers of the two orders, and many good things wore said. It was, indeed. after 12 o'clock when the ceremonies were brought to a close, and even then ail were loth to quit the lodge-room, and a they did so all expressed great satisfaction and declared the eveuing pleasantly and profitably spent. LastTnursdsy the men employed in constructing the new wood flume were obliged to blow off a point of rock in order to level the flume, which was just in tba roar of the residence of J. II. Decker, in the west part of town. and it was only through the greatest fortune that serious damage wat not don when the blast wat discharged. i.very precaution was taken by the workmen to prevent the chattered fragments from escsping snd flyiog, but una pieoe of rock found its way through the heap of. logs and brush and flew straight for the window of tba kiicben of Mr. Decker's house, in which were members of tbe family preparing the noon meal. The window was wrecked, glass flying in every direction in the house, filling the un covered kettles on the stove with fine glass. No blame ia attached to the workmen, and all agree that fortune favored them insofar as no serious damage was done. Last Saturday night an entertain ment waa given at Houlton for the purpose of purchasing a dictionary for the school. Tha programme rendered was made up of songs, . recitations and readings, and all present sesmed to thoroughly enjoy each number. With the conclusion of the programe it was announced that oysters and cake and coffee would be served in the upper story of the schoolhonse, aud pretty near eyerbodv availed themselves of the opportunity to get something to eat. We are not advised aa to the amount of money received, but in all probability tutlioient amount was taken in to purchase the book, and holder. On New-Year' Day a man named John Shelton, working on the Astoria railroad near IUinier, was instantly killed by the dischargeof a blutt. The man was working near tha blasting crew, and when everything waa in readiness for the fusea to be lighted the usual alarm waa given, but Shel ton did not take warning after the second notice. He was buried beneath four feet of rock and dirt, and when extricated wa dead. The coroner' jury exhonerated the foreman and all other employed , there at the time, of any blame Whatever. The progressive ladies of West field. Ind., issued a "Woman's Edition" of tha Westtield News, bearing dale of April 3, 1896.
