Fbocmim the fact that Columbia county
warrants are selling at 100 eeuts on the
dollar, the Seat time in many years. This
satisfactory condition of affairs has gradu
ally come about since ISM, at which time
county script sold as low as 70 cents on the
dollar. It is not long, to be sure, that our
script has been commanding its fall face
value la the markets, but the fact is all that
is necessary to satisfy the minds of thoie
who here to dispose of this commodity.
We wish to ask: What has caused this
change? It cannot be said that it is the re
sult of tricking politicians, because we hare
only ttst emerged from a hard-fought cam
paign, in which it was claimed that all evi
dences of prosperity were fictitious, and
ae soon as the struggle bad ended valua
tions would decline and business relax as
by a stroke of paralyaia.bat such is not the
ease. This condition of affairs csnnet be
aid to be the outgrowth of a cherished
hope that polices antagonistic to those bow
In force by a republican administration will
soon predominate.because as time advances
and the issues become better understood
the policy of the present administration
becomes more popular. Example: Ore
gon election June 6th. There are many
other philosophical reasons which the peo
ple of the country are ready to admit and
advance for a steady increase in valuations
of many classes. Up to a few months ago
the common class, to whom toe greater part
of our county script was issued, calculated
upon a 1 to 5 cent d isconnt on their paper,
ad now that the full face value is received,
who is benefitted f it is not the broker or
the money lender. Persons dealing in
money are now scouring the country in
search of investments that will earn a fair
rate of interest. Demands for loans have
decreased, and as a result rates of interest
have gone down accordingly. It waa freely
claimed that the price of warrants would
decline as sooa aa tax-paying time was
passed, but the fact is the increase in the
price of warrants has taken place since the
greater part of our tax has been collected.
Another feature in this connection which
stands out prominent to our vision fa) the
knowledge and belief of the people that the
danger of the predominance of principles
which would not be for the best interests of
the county has ceased, coupled with the
realization of the tact that the affairs of
the county are being administered judic
iously and wisely. All these conditions
are extremely gratifying, and must be so
acknowledged by all honest thinking people
Moss encouraging crop prospects could
not well be hoped for than axe reported at
this time from every section of Oregon and
Washington. The increased acreage and
the splendid condition of crops insure an
immense yiaia, ana certainly there ia ao
excuse for not expecting a good price for
wheat, hops, wool, etc., in the event of
which all other lines of trade will prosper
la accordance.
It seems to us that there ia but one sola
lion to the fact that ia our sister county of
Tillamook there is so an oca land being taken
up and proved ap on, as there is at the
present time. For period of at least three
yearn, yes, five 7 asm, a notice for publica
tion of a timber land entry was a thing rare
to be seen ia a newspaper in this section of
Oregon, when for several years prior to that
time such notices were published by the
hundreds, and it was at that time that U
ber land speculations were of such enor
mous proportions, and lands of that char
acter sold readily at good figure. Those
persona who now atop to think of general
business conditions obtaining at that time
Will recall with much pleasure the fact that
this section of Oregon witnessed no livelier
times than when timber lands were being
taken by hundreds of sections, and those
who chose to sell received from $i to S3)
per acre for their land. It was then that
business was lively and money plentiful.
and indications point strongly at present to
a repetition of those days. In fact, for six
montus or mora before the recent war
declaration, Umber lands in Northwestern
Oregon found readier market and better
prices than had been known for a number
of years before, and it really looks at pres
ent that despite the war the immensely
growing demand for onr timber and lumber
will assert itself. There is no questioning
the fact that the war bad a demoralising
4
effect upon our lumber interests, yet the
confidence of the people in the government
to carry the war to a speedy and successful
termination assarts itself in this matter,
and we see a steady revival of the roost Im
portant industry in this section of our state.
As an example of what is being dons along
that line uf trade, in the Tillamook Head
light oi the issue of July 7th there are fifty
timber land notices, a circumstance which
verifies our belief that Oregon timber lands
are soon to find greater demand at increased
privet, , '

THC KANILA SITUATION.
At about the moment the sun sets on onr
fleet at Havana it rises on our Seel near
Manila, and both are not unlikely to be ia
action simultaneously. " This Is a peculiar
situation for a country so strongly adverse
to engaginc in a toreian war. But we are
in truth minding our own business, both at
the shores of Cuba and of the Fliilippinea.
War with a nation of widely distributed
posaesvions like Spain necessarily means
Bel J of action as broad as the world. The
guns of the Oregon may soon he thunder
ing off the coaM of Spain also, and there
may be collisions ia the midatlanticor near
the Canaries. All the enterprise of the
American iwople will now be employed
and their forceful qualities asserted
Commodore Dewey's fleet was compelled to
capture a port from Spain in the far Pacific
or to bring his ships back to Baa Francisco
for a base, leaving half the ocean closed to
our commerce. His orders, therefore, were
to capture or blockade the most important
of Spain's ports near the caster coast of
Asia. Oiving op access to the Western Pa
cific is not to be thought of. Our fleet fought
for a foothold, and not retreat to our Pacific
harbors. 8000 miles troni the scene of Its
present intrepid operations.
Not long ago the London Spectator said
that "A great maritime power holding the
Philippines ought to be mistress in the far
East; and which of them is it to be? Amer
ica will be the owner of the ia lands, hut she
will not want to keep them, thus giving
hostage to all the maritime empires.
the Asia this is true. The 8,000.000 or 10,-
000.000 population of the Philippines are
largely Asiatic, and the task of governing
them would not be accepted by this coun
try. But if the islsnds fall into oar hands
we shall retain a harbor there and have
voice in their disposition. Japan is said to
have ooce offered $300,000,000 for the Phil
ippines. The London journal remarks that
there will be fierce bidding for the group,
and fierce jealousies excited among those
who bid. Bat the United States alone is
bearing the cost and other burdens of the
war that is expected to wrest them from
Spain, and no nation can undertake to
shoulder us aside after the expenditure of
oar blood and treasure.
Great Britian, Kuasia. Germany, France,
and Japaa are firmly seated on the eaatera
coast of Asia, and look to the future for
great commercial advantages ia that re
gion, the most populons on earth, and the
one most ia need of industrial development.
The aggregate area of the islands is nearly
doable that of Missouri, and their tropical
fertility ia unsurpassed in the world. Sugar,
tobacco, hemp, and fruits grow in great
abundance, and the dera and for all products
is ample. But Spanish influences and tax.
ation have kept the natives miserably poor
and ignorant. They have bad ao incentive
to work, and progress of all kinds has been
discouraged. The same causes of uuarreo
tioa have long existed in the Philippines
and Lube, labor has had neither reward
nor respect, and official authority has been
in the hands of officials who looted mer
chants and peasants alike, making a com
modity of justice, and standing ia the wsy
of all real progress. Destiny has placed
upon the United State the necessity
of
fighting the oppressor in the Philippines.
Tax importance of an exhibit from Co
lumbia county at the exposition which
opens la Portland in September is of no or
dinary magnitude. Onr resources should
be exhibited, and thus brought to the atten
tion of the people of other sections of this
state at least. The Portland expositions arc
yearly attended by a great many people
from states other than Oregon, and we be
lieve an exhibit therefrom Columbia county
would be of some benefit to as. Our re
sources have been talked of aad written
about, to be sure, but the expneition of
what we can raise and what our forests and
mountains contain would be of far more
practical advantage than all that might be
written or said of it This matter is of su
preme merit and should receive encourage
ment.
It is the opinion of the collector of inter
nal revenue that a person whs buys couaty
warrants for himself, simply as an invest
ment, Is not a broker aad is not required to
pay a broker's tax. If, however, ha buys
for others, either in bis own name or in
their names, he is a broker and must nay a
yearly tax of HO. If he pays this tax he can.
of course, bay for others, bat if they sell
again they will become brokers, and must
pay the lax.
