It ie certain that a considerable m flox of Eastern people to this stale is to occur. They are of the clase who will have money enough to engage in business or industries. , Borne of them are already here, looking around, form ing a judgement upon localities and opportunities. All this region will be benefitted. The East has aroused to the fact that the Pacific coast is to be greatly developed by the Oriental com merce and trade. The opening np of China and Sibera, the probable laying of a cable to Hawaii, the American ac tivities in the Orient, the probability of a Nicaraguan canal all these and other things assure that a large part of the world's commerce will event ually be done on the Paoifio ocean. So the East is going to make invest ment! on this side of the continent and many Eastern people are coming out to settle here and "get in on the ground floor." It is time Columbia county was doing something toattract at least a small portion of this capital for in vestment. We hTe numerous oppor tunities here for investment that will bring large returns, and they should by called to the attention of the capitalists. thbrk w one bill now in prepare tion and will be introduced at the coming session of the legislature that will meet with the hearty support of every fair-minded citizen of Oregon, It is one making a misdemeanor pun ishable by a heavy fine, and imprison ment to put up salmon under false labels. The bill will also provide for the confiscation by the fish commis sioner of all salmon found masquerad ing under false labels. A measure of this kind is badly needed, not only for the protection of the legitimate pack- era and of those engaged in the fish ing industry, but also of everyone who purchases canned salmon for their tables. It is a well known fact that fully half the salmon packed on tbe coast is sent to the markets as "Fresh Columbia River Spring Pack," ol- tnougn large quantities ot it was caught in tbe fall and never was near the Columbia river. Nut only the Oregon packers practice this fraud, but those of Wellington and Alaska do the same thing. It is but a short time ago that a full cargo of salmon arrived at Tacoma from Alaska and nearly every case was marked "packed ou the Columbia river." It is true that this law if passed will not reach these last-named packers unless their product is shipped into tbe state, but by enacting such a measure a start toward removing the evil will have been made, and it is thought that press ure may be thus brought on ourrepre sentatives in Washington that will in duce congress to pass a similar law that will reach the whole United States. Comment Called Forth. In lust Monday's Oregouian appeared tbe following clipping from the News, ot this !lnf. The article has been thoroughly di gested Ion? since, but we print It merely as a link connecting other circumstances: "It now becomes our painful duty to In form Mm union forces of Columbia county, and the readers of this paper generally, that one In whom wa refoiiners put (treat trust has anceumbrd to (ho willes of the enemy. The man ot alt men in this county we made the tight for in the last campaign, and who we expected to allow to the people of this county that reformers were more honest politically, than republicans, ha surrendered hie "honor, hi manhood, his principles, and bis veracity into the keep ing of that party which ia tlaily and hourly blighting this beloved land of the free. It is with a sad and foretxxllnir heart that we tell our readera that 8uurilt J. N. Kice has gone to supporting the paper that abused him, that cursed him and viilliied him un mercifully in the last campaign the Ore gon MisL In Inst week's issue of that pa per there appeared three notice of sheriff sales, which, hy all political low, written and unwritten, should have appeared In this paper. Just why Mr. Kice to far forgot all political honor, to say nothing ot sol emn and binding pledges made to the writ er, bas not, as yet, been explained by thut gentleman. But the deed has been done, and there is no undoing it." In last Tuesday's Orr-gnnlon we Bud the following communication, written by one of the candidates on the union ticket with Mr. Kit e, as will be plainly anderstood : "PoitTLAnn, Dec. 12. (To the. Editor. In the Oregouian of today I notioed an ex tract from an article in the Columbia County News which would do great credit to " i'he Dawson Digger." But the wit of the arti cle hardly justifies the libel on the sheriff ot vommnia county. Mr. luce is a good man. and has done nothing to destroy the couhdence of his supporters. Having been a nominee on the ticket with Mr. Rice, I am sure there was no agreement of the candidates, generally, to support any one paper or otherwise sartender their liberty of action. The Columbia County News was the hardest burden the nnion county ticket hart to carry iu the last campaign. In the very issue from which you extract, it approvingly publishes an article from the chairman of the people's party, in which socialism is suggested as the haven of the populist party. 1 am sure that such a sug gestion would not meet with the approval of many of the nominees on tbe last nnion ticket. . , , Democrat." Moving His Img-frlng Plant. The surveyors employed on the Baldren logging railroad on Cray's river went over to that place yesterday t make some alter ations in the survey as recently laid out, The road commences at tbe head of tide water on Gray's river, running four miles into the woods, from where it will branch out into the surrounding timber. Mr. Bal dren, who has been doing extensive logging on the Clatskaule for some time, has pur chased 2000 acres of land on Gray's river from Michigan parties, and bas an option on 5,000 acres more. The price is under stood to be $50 per acre, providing the tim ber cut from each acre scales 1,000,000 feel of lumber. Mr. Said r en bas the logging outfit used at (Jlatskanie ready to move end will take it to Gray's river on barges. Two logging engines will be used in the woods and from 75 to 100 men will be em ployed. First-clam fir logs are reported selling at $8 per thousand at Gray's river. Bpruce logs bring even a higher price, and enough cannot be had to supply the de mand. The new road will be standard tua and bids will be submitted for its construction at once. Saturday 's Astorian.

It is an open question whether the qneen bee possesses within herself the organic functions necessary to enable ber at will to produce male or female progeny .or whether tbe sex of her offspring is regulated by ex ternal conditions. A Kansas patron ot the Weekly Globe-Democrat has sent as the following communication on the subject, which, to say the least, is interesting and plausible: ' To the Editor of the Globe-Democrat: Neosho Rapids, Kan., Nov. 29. I notice an article In your lest Isssue In reference to the queen bee. The writer holds the idea that the qneen can deposit eggs determin ing tbe sex of the progeny, while tbe fact still remains that the queen has practical I; nothing to do with the sex; that matter is determined entirely by the size of the cell. The reason for tbe above fact is, after the qneen becomes fertilised she is both male and female, having retained the male or gans when she met the drone. The worker cell being smaller than her body, sbe has to press herself dowa in the cell, and when the egg passes the male organ it becomes impregnated, and consequently it produces s worker ; bnt when sbe deposits her eggs in drone comb, it being twice as large as her abdomen, the egg passes out without pressing the male organ, and produces a drone. As a proof of the correctness of the above theory, take an unfruitful queen, put ber into a colony with both kinds of comb, and the progeny will all be drones, both large and entail. Again, take a fertile queen and nut her into a colony of bees where all of the drone comb is cutout, aud I will give 1 for every drone produced in a whole season. Having been in the business for over fifty years, aud having reared a great many queens in test hives, I have ascertained these facts for myself, aside from Ixng stroth, King, Topper and ail the rest of the practical Dee Keepers 01 modern times. Observer. Winter Hprajinjr. A question, says the Rural Northwest, which a great many fruit-growers are inter ested in is this: What cfTt has winter spraying with the regular lime, sulphur and blue vltrul compound In preventing brown rot? The trend of opi.iion tn the East seems to be that the most effective time for spraying to prevent brown rot is in the win ter. These two compound are not only our best insecticides for winter use but are alro of much vaiue as fungicides, and H is probable that they will be very useful in destroying the germ of the brown rot. Those of our readers who can give us any facta bearing on this subject are invited to do so, Tbe fact that we escaped serious ln jury from brown rot In Oregon during the liast season should not lend anyone to be little the danger from this formidable Uis- ease. We believe it will well pay every prune-grower to thoroughly spray his prune orchard every winter with some fungicide in order to keep the disease in chuck as iuucu as possible. . Certainly Will Not. Multnomah county is agitating a new ap portionment of members of the legislature on a basis of a senator to each 12.083 of white population and a representative for every 6,04 1. The present ratio is respectively 6,502 and 3,290. The only great gain by the new arrangement would be to give Portland seven full and one joint senator, instead ot live as now, and fifteen representatives for the present nine. Washington county, like nearly every other county in the state ex cept where the metropolis is located, would lose, having as now a senator, but with fourth interest tn a joint senator instead of the present half interest, and receiving two representative and a half interest in a joint representative for our three full representa tives, xt toots line a giiod eiueeieiur I'ortland. but may not work. Washington county iiatcuei. Living In the Country. In the December Ladies' Home Journal Edward Bok, with much satisfaction, notes the strong tendency to country living, and believes that "it is one of the best signs of the times. Nothing in the world can keep a man or woman so young and fresh as to be able to be in touch each day with tbs perpetual freshness and youth of Nature, Suburban life means more ont-of-door liv ing, and that is what we Americans all need. We want more exercise, and suburban liv ing makes that easier. We want our inter est in things kept fresh, and that Nature does for us as nothing else can. The more our busy men eeof Nature's restful wavs the more restful will they become. Tbe closer we keep our children to the soil, the healthier will they be physically, and tbe stronger will they develop mentally. The more our girls breath in tbe tmre air which God intended for all, bnt which man in the cities pollutes, the fewer worried mothers we shall see. The more our young men see of out-of-door sports, the more clearly will they realize the greatness of splendid physi cal health. The more the tired housewife sees of flowers and plants and trees tbe closer will become her interest in ail things natural aud simple; and as she sees the simplicity with which nature works, uncon sciously will the lesson be forced upon her and enter into ber own methods. We ail agree that there is no teacher like nature herself. Let ns all, then, get as close to her as possible. Whatever she teaches is whole some to tbe mind and uoliftliiiz to the soul and strengthening to tbe bod v. In the very act of studying ber wonderful ways there is Amend the Law. The law for tbe collection of taxes should be amended so that county treasurers should collect all tsxes. They are the cus todians of tbe county fnnde and are tbe only persons who should in any way be connected with the collection of taxes. In states east of tbe Rockies it is almost uni versally the case that county treasurers col lect tbe taxes as well as disburse the funds. The treasurers should be empowered to make all tax sales, the warrant being issued to him instead of the, sheriff. Tbe law should be amended so that tax sales should be published by the printer making the lowest bid, who resides in the county where tbe property is to be sold. This course would save the state tens of thousands of dollars annually. We demand that our representatives make a united effort to have this much needed legislation made effectual. In this same connection we want to direct tbe attention of Benton county's delegation in the legislature to the enormous expense caused this state by making three tax rolls in each county. It is nonsensical, expensive and of no practical value. One copy Is enough for each county, and when mads up should be placed in the hands of the county treasurer for collection, and thus avoid the circumlocution of having the sheriff collect and then pay over to the treaurer, which hy some sheriffs is not vrr promptly done. Our sheriff is not at fault in this matter, we are glad to say. t'orvallis Gazette. IMdn't Talk Politics. There is a fanner three miles east of Ger vais who bas just sold his winter apple crop for $000 and he had no wormy apples. He is satisfied with the result of his work. He has not talked populism on the street cor ners while the pests destroyed his frnit or made it unmarketable. He has gone after his insects and wsged a war of extermina tion. We need more such orchards hun dreds of acres of them. There is no coon try that can compete with ours in the rais ing of apples. But they will not raise them selveslike they would in the good old davs before the wooly aphis and codlin moth came West with advancing civilisation to grow up with the country. Balem States man. Quite an Accident. Cbas. K. Hall, who left here hut Thurs day with Mayor Eddy and Meedames Hntehins and Williams aa passengers for North Yamhill, met with serious trouble at Sampson's mill. It was quite dark when they reached that station, and Mr. Eddy was walking ahead with the lantern, when one of the breast straps broke, letting the tongue strike tbe gronnd, which upset the vehicle throwing tbe ladies out This so frightened the horses that they ran into th mill pond, and before tbey eonid be rescued one of tbem was drowned. Fortunately the ladies and Mr. Eddy and Mr. Hall es caped injury, but the front wheels of the wagon ami ipe narness were nauiy used up Auiamooa fieraiu. A Great Difference. It makes all the difference in the world what kind of a burden a man carries as to how he complains of the load, says an ex change.

It is stated that tbe steamer Astorian will shortly be placed on the Astoria-Portland run. The Astorian has been tied np for the past two years at Smith's Point, below As toria, under an agreement entered into by the companies operating steamers between Astoria and Portland. All the lines went into a combine and the owners of the As torian were paid 1250 monthly to keep their boat out of service. It is reported that a company will be formed and the Astorian again placed on tbe run, tbe agreement naving expired. What It Coats. Admits! Dewey's expenditure in powder and shells to sink tbe Spanish Beet at Manila, according to his owa official report, was about 145,000. The cost for tbe same item in disposing of Gevera s fleet off Santiago is between 190,000 and 1100,000. Experts re gard the figures in both cases as surprising ly low. Dewey's and Schley's and Samp. son s combined fleets cost nearly 930,000.000. Dewey fired 5,681 projectiles; Schley, 7,5.33. Schley's flagship, Brooklyn, fired the larg est number, 1,073: the Oregon next, and Sampson's flagship, New York, the smallest number, z. Already Bounty Here. A petition bas been presented to the county court to place a bounty on cougar and panther scalps. The petition was signed by residents from the city and county. The court has instructed County Clerk Wherrity to communicate with the clerk of Columbia county, with a view of entering into an agreement of placing a bounty of 8 or $10 on such scalps. Astorian. The court of Columbia countv at its last session agreed and ordered that hereafter, until revoked, M snontd be paid on each cougar scalp presented to me clerk. Fntnre for Apples. There is a great future ahead for Wash' ington and Oregon apples. The soldiers at Manila and Honolulu will soon teach the people of those islands that they cannot celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas with out apples, Skainokaws shipped more ap ples thi year than ever before, and these hills along the Columbia, now given tin to ferns, will some day become the great apple orcnarus oi mis district.

Many of tbtisa who were shocked at the Idea ot horses being slaught ered for food will not worry themselves much about tbe agonies and suffering of the unfortunate beast who dies for want of food. Tbe lot of those who were given their dis patch while full-fed and happy Is very much preferable to that of those left to frees and starve by slow degrees. Oregooiau. Brain Power of Bats, Confronted with the difficulties which modern builders and householders put in the way of rats in drains, floors, and skirt ings, the black rat would probably be baf fled, while tbe sagacious gray rat still re mains more or leas master of the situation. The ease of the rat is typical ot the value of brain power. Routine, which is the us ual condition of animal existence, does not exist for them. They have to face "recon structions" of their common surroundings at any given moment, and their resources and adaptability have seldom been found wanting. Ship rats have survived the era of steam and steel, and only just recently thrived so sacceasfully in s big ironclad that tbey mad her majesty's Colossus al most uninhabitable. House rats have learned bow to cope with gas fittings, lead pipes, brick drains and cement floors. "Sew er rats" have made themselves a uame equal with modern urban sanitation, and others are now learning to live in ''cold stores ' and eat chilled meat and game in an atmosphere where breath turns into snow.
