Santiago has risen from the depls of black despair to the sunshine which blesses all who come under the protection of the proudest flag that floats. The advice to young men to "go west" is again in order. There is a wonderful opportunity in Hawaii, the Caroline, Ladrone and the Philippine Islands, to grow up with the country, The bundle of .Sunday Oregonians failed to arrive at this place last Sun day for soma unknown reason, and our people's eagerness to learn the latest war news became at once intensified. The past rear's trade was the most remarkable in the history of thiscoun trv. All countries in the world paid tribute to the United States, More gold came Into the oounlry than ever before, snd the balance of trade was double that of any previous year. The . exports exceeded the imports by $G61,. 259,021. Dr. Ross Is the promoter of an affair that will nflbrd unbounded pleasure to those who are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate. Tbe idea is strictly original and is unique In its conception. It cannot naaaitily fail to be the aome of perfection In the pur pose for which it 1 designed. Such an Opportunity for downright enjoy ment rarely presents itself to the peo ple of Houlton, St, Helens, Warren, Yankton, Columbia City and other places, and if they fail this time to participate there Is no telling when such an opportunity will again pre sent itself. It is a delightful moon light rids on the popular steamer Young America to Kalama and re turn, the cost of which will be but a mere 2D cent piece. The enjoyment to be had will be worth four times the price. The steamer will leave this city at 1 o'clock sharp this (Friday) evening, reach Kalama at 8 o'clock, remain there until 8:30: return home at 10 M. Refreshments will be served on the steamer, snd the evening will be one of unalloyed pleasure. What might have been a much more serious accident happened to James Muokle, Jr., last Monday, while he was on the Coweeman looking after his ex tensiv logging interests there. He was feeding salt to a number of young horse when a near-by stub of a tree broke from its trunk and crashed to the ground with terrific force, Just be hind the borsss. The crash startled the colls, and they leaped with furious fright in every direction, burling Mr. Muekle to tbe rround, and a number of them trampling over him. His right leg, below the knee, was struck oy tne foot of one of the horses, Inflicting a painful and serious bruise, but no bones were fractured. He was brought to this city Tuesday, when his Injured member was examined and treated. Under favorable circumstances Mr. Muckla will be able to be out in a week or ten days. Wash Muokle, Dan Vorhses, (J. K. Blakesley),and Burt Whitney returned Monday after an extended journey of forty-eight hour' duration through the Bunker hill region. The boy left town on Thursday of last week with provis ions enough to last nine weeks, ex pecting not to return until the early fall raius, but tbe heavy thunder storm prevailing up east last Sunday was mistaken by them for a visitation to the Columbia of a Spanish cruiser, bene their early return. Tbe boys stated, however, that they bad about decided to remain away for an indefi nite period, or until it wa possible to learn bow serious the bombardment was, and upon arriving in town were pleased to note that what they firmly believed to be a naval oontest between a Spanish cruiser and a few Columbia river flabboata wa but an hallucina tion. Teach a child a lesson thoroughly and it will never forget it. Teach him something every day about hi coun try and Its Dag ana it win mate a pa triot of him, ready at any time to fight for it honor, if necessary, and to at all time stand out for pur government and the maintenance of the principles of the constitution. The various school boards in tbi county ahould require each teacher to devote at least ten minute every day in short talks about the natioo's government, the flag, or in singing soma one of the national hymns. This is a neia mat snouia not be ueglected, and the subject ahould have it regular place in the daily school program. School Superintendent Copeland was down from Warren last Saturday. Mr. Copeland informed us that it waa definitely settled that the annual teach ers' institute for this county would be held d urine the first week of August, President Campbell and Prof. Hawley f tbe State Normal School, at moo mouth, will be io attendance, and tea- lares of anew and varied character will be Introduced. The session prom ises to be one of more than ordinary interest. The place of holding tbe in stitute ha not yet been fully determ ined. -- The News seem to be considerably worried because the Tbi Mist ha un dertaken to euggost a few improve ment that would benefit our couoty and town. The people of St. Helens and Columbia county need not flatter themselves that the News would ever suggest an idea that would be of public benefit or interest. It mission is not that. Its sour-scented comment on matters of general interest, and its gen eral dog-in-the-manger style, makes one' spinal column pain very near the south end of it. Monday's Oregonian says.- "Port land would do well to give financial ssistanoe to the project to build a wagon road from the Nehalem valley to a junction with the Portland-St, Helen road at Soappoose. The Ne halem valley is one of the most pro ductive sections in Oregon. It popu lation ia rapidly increasing, and Port land should have ita trade." Mary Ellen Lease is not coming to Oregon to reside, as she said she in' tended to. She has heard from Ore gon, and the tenor was as a harassing discord to Mary's political ear, so she decided to get as far away as possible, and is at present doing newspaper work in New York City. Mary, old "gal," you have our permission to stay away, ; Rev, G, Grovenor Haley will preach in Houlton, next Sunday, at 11 a. m., and in St. Helens, at 8 p. m. The sub jeetof the evening sermon will be, "The Bight ol women, uui wiu be the firat of a series of sermon on "liOve, Courtship and Marriage." Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Dolman left on Tuesday morniug for their Bunker hill eamn. They will be joined by Senator MoBride upon bia arrival here from Washington, and a camp main tained there duiing this month and next. The game Beaton opens on the 1st of August, and from that time until December 1st sportsmen will be at lib erty to slay elk, moose, and mountain sheep, so long as they use, sell, or pre serve the carcasses of such animals for food. , .,. - Judge Doan was up from Bainier last Saturday taking testimony in the land iroof case of Harry E.

There seems to bs considerable romance attached to this wedding. ; The groom had been lying at the point of death for seme days. Thirty years ago tbaeoupl were betrothed, but became sstranged, and each married another. Mrs. Nichols, hear ing of her old lover's illness, cams to marry and take care of him, having abandant means to do so. She has decided to ship his remains to California tomorrow Bight for Interment. Buno post, O. A. K., of which deceased was a member, held funeral servloes at ths Home today. Deceased was well known in this eonnty, having resided at Beappoose for several years. His cherished pastime was that ol trout-fishlug, and his numerous trips to the mountain streams In this county brought him in contact with many people, hence his wide soqualntsnce. He left this city about two years ago (or Boseburg, where be has sines remained until the time of bis death. To See Her Illinois Bome. Mrs. Thomas Watts, a well-known lady, living at Reuben, down ths Columbia, earns ap on the steamer KeUogg yesterday on her way to Chicago snd vicinity on a visit to her sisters and ber old schoolmates, whom she hod not seen (or many years. Mrs. Watt was ths happiest passenger on board of th Kellogg, as the boat steamed from Beuben to Portland. At the landings along the river her friends bad gathered to bid her good-bye, as her acquaintances seemed to be scattered alt along the river. Her intention Is to return bome in eight weeks. A pleasant visit is in store (or her. Only one cloud is in tbe distance. When a child, Mrs. Walts lived In ths East, snd she was in mortal (ear of a thunder storm, and her only apprehension yesterday - was that there might be an old-fashioned thun der storm, sad in that event she was sure she could not overcome her old child habit of hiding under the bed, Her friends bops ber visit will not bs attended by any thun der storras. Oregonian, Wednesday. Wharf at Catlin. At Catlin, formerly called Maryavllle, dlrently opposite Kelso. Wash., a large wharf is being constructed. Tbe Kellogg Transportation Company Is building a dock there 400 feet long, on which will be erected a warehouse 80x90 feet. The company Is building this whsrf, not only for its own use, but for the benefit of the eitisens snd the large farming community as well. Heretofore the farmers have been obliged to carry their producs to Freeport, a dis tance of two miles. In order to ship it to Portland. Captain Kellogg, seeing the sa nation, concluded to make the improve ment at once, which is now under way under his supervision. Tbe dock facilities were greatly needed, and tbe entire com munity is greatly ptsased with the improve ment. tfore Lumber for San Francisco. The second lumber raft io be towed to San Francisco, now building by tbe Inmsn- Poulson Company, at Portland, is being eenstrneted at a rapid rate, so as to have it ready to go to sea before tbe fall gales be gin to blow. Tbs raft built by the North Pacific Lumber Company is tied up on the esst bank of the river, near tbeold dry dock in that city, awaiting the tugs which are to tow it to San Francisco. Harvesting; la Umatilla. Henry F.Pierce, of Cmatlllaeounty. who. has 8000 acres In wheat this year, is busily engaged In harvesting his crop. Abie steam threshing machine hs bas in operation did some exceedingly good work last week, During the six days ending Saturday, ths machine cut and threshed on an average of 70 acres of wbeat, about 1000 sacks, per day, the crop averaging 80 bushels to the acre. The machine does ths whole business, cuts, threshes, and sacks the grain. It does tbs work of eight men snd from 16 to 2i horses. More Jobs Than Men. Montesano ( Wash.) Vidette. Employers of labor have to handle their men with gloves-these days when there are more situations than there are meu to nil them. The entire crew of one of the steam ers on the harbor threatened to quit one day recently, unless one of tbe crew who was discharged was retained. It is needless to say he kept the Job. The delinquent tax roll for 1897 will be ooDied. tbe warrant of the clerk at tached and turned back to the sheriff thia week for resuroot Ion of collection. Tbe roll contains a little over $8000 of delinquencies and tax-payers Will save themselves extra expense ny paying up at oacsw It is remarkable just now that the Oregon papers which are the most solicitous about Oregon's next United Slates senator are (hose of the other oolitical complexion.
