America for Americans. "Long Ma;
It ware O'er tko Homo of tbo Free
aud the hand of the Brave."
"We believe if Si. Helena had aa or
dinance forbidding bioyola riding on
the sidewalks it would be strictly en
forced." The life and limb of people
who throng upon our streets each day,
and especially in the evenings, is con
stantly in peril, and "an ordinance
should be forthwith passed by our city
council prohibiting the riding of bicy
cles upon our passwaya." But if there
is the least danger of Gsh being made
oi one and nesn ot tbo otber do not
cause such a law to fiod place upon
ino pages of our ordinance register.
hoq ibis law is passed" and it
lonna to operate only in certain in
stances it should be repealed. "Stuce
for the goose should be sauce for the
gander."
These is nothing so supremely di
pasting as to realize the enormous in
liuence exerted in these days by men
whose only passport to society is the
possession of money. This fawning at
the lent of wealth is degrading and de
moralizing. Ueoerslly without a einel
redeeming trait of character, education
or intelligence, these men stand ready
to proclaim certain theories, generally
vicious, in their application, with all the
glibness of a parrot and the persistency
of a beaver. Their cheap witticisms are
often taken by their gaping admirers
generally indebted to them, to be
omen of effervescent wisdom. Their
arguments in support of improper con'
among are usually as potent as an ex-
ploded fire cracker. Their ability to
make noise is their chief stock in trade
but tbey are nevertheless a millstone
a round the neck of progress.
Tug surrender of Santiago and de
termination manifest by the Ameri
can troops and navy to proceed
againet Spain and her Pacific posssss-
aions, seems to us would demonstrate
to the Dona that surrender of their
o:sessioos and an appeal for peace
would snow their better discretion.
Such conditions will be the inevitable
result, and their discrace at first
would be no more humiliating than at
lost. Discretion would certainly be
the better part of valor. With two
fleets destroyed, the surrender of San
tiago, the inevitable surrender of
Havana, a state of revolution and
depleted execheqner at home, a revo
lution id the Philippines and Admiral
Camars operating bis fleet on a regu
lar schedule at $2iZ,UOl) a trip through
ine sues eanal in order to evade Com
adore Watson and the Oregon, would
lead any nation save bull-fighting
Spain to negotiate peace terms at all
jauzaras. Jttataiss.
Time is not far distant when making
journeys ot some considerable dis
tance by bicycle will be but a common
occurrence, and that means of travel
will usurp much of which is directed
other ways. The Oregon Eoad Club
is assuming large proportions and ex
tending its influence into all parts of
me state, it is now designed to con
struct a good bicycle path from Port
land to all near-by towns, thus extend
ing the range for operation and pleas
ure over many miles of territory.
From Portland to Vancouver such a
path is already in existence, and it ie
the iotentiou of the club, with the as
sistance of JicyelUts directly inter
ested1, to extend the service by con
structing a path to St. llelens. The
existence of such a path would mean
that hundreds of people would visit
our city. These visitors would leave
more or less money in our city each
time and in the aggregate the amount
would be considerable. Devotees of
the sport, however, are the ones to
take the initiative in this matter, and
see the enterprise through.
Much lias been said about the im
portance of the movement inaugurated
Dy tuo uregoo Lumber Uo. of Portland,
Oregon, in shipping rafts of lumber
trom their mills to 1'aiiiorma. It was
the sincere hope of many that the first
rait would prove a failure and discour
age any further attempts in this line.
A Calilornia paper stated that owners
of lumber vessels were watching the
progress ot the rait wilii deep interest.
some predicting disaster, aud most of
them hoping for a storm that would
scatter five million feet of lumber all
over the Pacific ocean. Ju case of fail
ure more than one skipper was getting
ready to entertain his friends. In spile
. however, of an unprecedented storm at
this season of the year, ninety percent
of the lumber reached its destination.
There is no question but what ship ow
ners must acknowledg the new factor
in the carrying trade along this coast
Like all innovations, it makes loss in
some quarters. Unless the ship owner
can make prices to fit the new condi
tions created by ratling he will find it
iwc-'iry to look for other freight than'
lumber to (il! bis vessels. Puget Sound
Lumberman, , '
Tub county court at its lust session
as has been the case for four years,
was again called upon to settle the
denuty hire proposition. Th Kaintor
Keviewsays: "Like Banquo's ghost,
th subject will not dowu until it is
settled," and the Review offers sub
stantially the same means of settling
it that has been advanced by differ
ent persons whom we have heard dis
cus the subject. Fifteen hundred
dollars is not enough to run tbo sher
iff's office, nor is $1SOO dollars per year
enougii to run the clerk's cilice, but
pledges were made aud the court had
out one course to pursue, which it
wisely chose a blank refusal to allow
one dollar for deputy hire. Commis
sioner Peterson was in favor of allow
ing Sheriff Kice$i0 per month extra;
but tue rest of the court did not ac
quiesce. No niau in Columbia eountv
has a more vivid understanding of the
truthfulness of the statement that the
present compensation of the sheriff's
office is insufficient than Mr. Uice, who
openly declares that there is not a liv
ing in the office at the present sched
ule so Iohr as he is required to pay
bis deputy aO per month, who refuses
to work for a less amount But th
court is not to blame, and has not
volunteered deputy hire to either the
Cleric or slienfl. Air. JBice had two
years experience, but it is different
with Mr. Watts, who wasted to believe
tbat a 25-a-month-man could do all
the work in his oflice, and ho enjoy all
the honors of entertaint;inir the visit
ors and drawing the salary, but subee
quent events developed a different con-
anion oi Bttnirs. However, the court
acted with due caution when it refused
to allow deputy hire, and adopted the
proper means for clearly demonstrat
ing to the public that the salaries are
insufficient, by asking those officers to
submit itemized statements of receipts
and expenditures, and then the court
would better know how to judge. Our
representative should be appealed
to oy the masses to use his in
fluence to secure the proper legislation
in regard to the salaries of these offi
cers a sum which he wonld believe
to be just and equitable compensation.
Then, and not uutil then, will bidding
in county offices, as by auotion, cease.
SOUTH KKN CAMFOKNIA.
Il will not do to treat with indiffer
ence a matter of so great importance
as looking after the improvement
of highways leading from onr city to
sections or me county to which we
look for patronage. At the present
time a well organized effort has exist
ence in the Nehalem valley looking to
the improvement of a certain road
surveyed aad recorded, lendine from
that valley to intercept the St Helens
Portland road at Scappoose. No doubt
a good grade could be had bv that out
let, but would so great a number of
people be benefitted? Yet the fact ex
us mai me people over there are
earnest in their endeavors to improve
their condition and are resolved to
werk out their own salvation, since it
is almost apparent that little interest
is manifest in them by towns on the
Columbia river, whose interests are
identical with their own. St. Helens
is the natural outlet for the u Doer Dart
of the Nehalem valley, as we all know.
nut conditions are such tbat any con
siderable amount of traffic is absolute
ly out of the question, and must re
main so nntil better roads are Pro
vided. We have made it our business
to investigate the merits of snch an
undertaking and are convinced tbat
the people of Ibat valley are ready as
never before to co operate with any
point that will bring them relief. Five
hundred dollars spent on the road
from St Helens to Pittsburg would
put it in prime condition for heavy
teaming the year round, and the im
provement conld be made so substan
tial that it would endure for a number
of years. The trade of the Nehalem
valley would be worth aianv hundred
dollars annually, and it the people of
tbis place display a proper spirit of en
terprise and progresMveness they will
reach for this trade by co-operatine
itb the Nehalem people, and make
St. Helens the shipping point for the
products of a rich and fertile valley
whose commercial possibilities are not
to be overlooked.
almost every happening in a com
munity, especially if it be of a scanda
lous nature, reaches the editor's ears
about the first thine, and those of a
sensational turn scan their columns to
see what is said about it But as a
general thing they don't find it The
fact is, newspaper men are censured,
without cause, more than any other
class. If they mention some people
and matters with the best intentions
great howl goes up ; papers are stop-
pea ana a boycott is at once inangur-
tod. And this. too. in the face of the
fact if the editors tell all they know,
the eyes or tbe world would be opened ;
there would be a score or more of ap
plications tor divorces; many a man
and woman of "upper ten" proclivities
would be ostracized from society ; not
few of "the very best" element would
be relegated to tbe background. So
in the face of these facts, newspaper
men should not be too harshly treated
or criticised. They are tbe best friends
the people have. If they are cursed,
let him that is free from sin cast the
first stone,"

(To the editor.) flues my former letter
I havesiient two delightful weeks on Smith's
mountain. Leaving Valley Centre, the first
place of importance passed through
route to the mountain Is the Rlueon Imll
reaorvatlon, which Is drained by the Ban
Luis Key river, whose exit IsthsPaoiBo
ocean. There are two schools on the reser
vation. The Indians speak a mixture ot
an Indian dialect and Spanish. I also
passed through tht Petrorara reservation.
We now begin the ascension of the mod
tain; the grade it regular, but gather steep.
Arter a walk of tluee utiles the summit
reached, and what a view I The Ban Luii
Key river, crossed a few hours ao, can
now be seen meandering its way westward
through the valleys te the grand Paolfio
The road just pasted over can be seen wind
ing like a huge serpent back to the valley
from whence we came. Lying to the north
may be seen Elsinore valley. Followit:
the horiaon rosy be enumerated the follow
ing valleys: Iterietta, Temecula, Fall
brook, Valley Center, Bear valley, Ksoon-
dido, Ramon and Warner's Haneh, the
latter containing 50,000 acres, also the Hot
springs, famous for their medical proper
ties, cm the summit one finds a serifs
beautiful mountain meadows, on whii
xraxe herds of fat, sleek cattle. The hills
sr covered with a heavy growth of eedar,
red fir, hemlock, and a great variety
oaks and pine, some of tbe latter measur
ing about twenty five feet In circumference.
There is an abundance of game quail

pigeons. Besides a large number of cam

postofflce and a faroons Iron spring. Af
ter shoeing onr wagon we returned to Vs
ley Center. Partly Improved lands here
range in price from $3 to $10 per acre. An
unique way of clearing lands is employed
here taking an oak log about twenty feet
long, hitching a team to each end, break-
ino the brush down, after which it is Bred.
The ground is then ready for the plow.
The rools of the brush described in my
last letter are disposed of for fuel. I neg
lected to state that the Pacifio ocean aud
the bills In Mexico, lying south of Ban Di
ego, are plainly discernable from the sum
mit of Smith's mountain.

Another Ocean Raft.
The fourth ocean log raft built by II. E.
Robertson, at Stella, has gone to sea, and
it peril has not overtaken it it is perhaps,
well on its way to San Francisco by this
time. It contains 51)0,000 lineal feet snd
scales between six and seven million feet of
lumber, or about twice the size of tbe raft
recently shipfied to San Frauclsco by tbe
Inman-Paulson Company. It is 000 tset
long, S3 feet beam and draws 20 feet and 0
Inches of water. It is elintic share In the
center, drawing down to a circle IS feet In
diameter. The raft is cigar-shaped, like
those formerly sent down by the same
company, and is protected by a heary
plaak bulkhead at each end, tied through
the raft with four steel cables 1 inches in
diameter. It is towed by a coa hawser 16
inches In circumference and ISO fathoms
long. Tbis chain is connected to a center
chain which runs through the whole length
of the raft, and whenever the strain comes
on tbe hawser it pulls the raft together. On
tbs ocean by this means the raft is tight
ened more securely.

A DELIBERATE SUICIDE.
Colombia County Young Han Kills
Himself,
Fobest Gsovr, July 19. Otis Oliver
Thomas, aged 24, killed himself fn the
kitchen at bis boms on the Upper Nehalem,

self. Hs left a father and mother, two
brothers and six sisters. Interment will be
