Though the eeason iaatita height, very few are being taken. Owing to their oarcity, fishermen only go out occas ionally, and a nighl'a drifting on the river seldom remit in a ctoh of more than one or two Hah. The water i extremely cold, and the weather at tbia season of the year makes it very an--pleasant to spend a night in an open boat drifting on the river. Fishermen, theiefore, are reluctant to go out for the amall oompenaation in it. At cer tain stage of the tide, when steel heads are known to run better, a few boat can be aeon drifting abreaat of the city, in favorable weather. For a time th demand waa o great that the buyer forced the price op to7 cent a pound, but tbia only laautd for a few daya and ' the price dropimd to 6 cent, where it jiow remains. The lupply i very, lim ited, but it is not thought the price will go any higher the remainder of , the aeaaou. The reaidence of II. B. Borthwick, 334 Taylor atreet, Portland, was gone through by burglars Thursday even ing, aays Monday' Oregoniait. Mr. and Mr. Borthwick had juat gon down to hia mill, near Qoble, and the girl employed by them had gone afier a woman who staya with her when the family I away. While the bouse wa Vhtia left unprotected, some sneak thief who had been watching hia opportun ity entered through the basement and ranaaoked the house, opening every closet and bureau drawer, and turning their contonta out in search of the plunder he fancied. Ha did Dot care for ailverware or clothing, but secured aome 925 in money, a pair of opera gbiet'S and some 300 of Mr. Botth wick's ChrUtmae cigar. A box con taining s doxen pain of new kid gloves w thrown aside a of no value. The thief waa evidently in search of article of value which did not occupy much pnre. Mr. Borthwick did not get home until Saturday night, and yes terday had hardly time to ascertain what was missing, aa the contunta of the bureaus snd closets ' had been so scattered about. The will of Mary Jane Brlstow was admitted to probate in the county court yesterday, any Friday's Oregon ian, and K. L. Krenan and Ata K. lliohaidann were appointed executor without bomla. The estate ia valuvd t about $7000, and is deviaed aa fol low; To Ana Richardson, a brother of the testatrix, reading' in Lewis comity, Wash., lot 4, block 40, Couch addition, and the Income of the prem ie at 600 Front street, being the south oiiu-hiilf of block 6. block C, Carw Iters' addition ; also C4Q00 owing tiy him to the testatrix, loaned to pur chase a farm in Lewi county, and a franchise) for a boom at the mouth of Lewi river, Wsh.,belng right granted to the Lewi Eivcr Boom Company by lease for fifty year.

The Mr. RichardkOn men tioned in thia will is well known to St. Helena people, having resided just op posite this place for many year, and ha been a familiar figure on the streets of this town. We might say to the mow I "Oat off from the earth ; and perhaps no one would got mad, either. Miss Beatrice Crouse Is up from As toria spending a few day with relative aud Ineuda in and about ot. lioleti. Misses Jr iorenoe and Anna ueorge returned to Portland last Sunday, after pending a week witb relative in this oiiy. . . Wolffs A Z wicker, of Portland, bave purchased a ten-acre tract of land at Linnton, and will proceed at once to erect a large shipyard and slilp-build- ing plant. Two hundred men will be giveu employment. The women are on the warpath after tbe Utah congreman who ha throe wives. They are also on the warpath after the man who has no wife, and it ia not often that the man who ba one wifo escapes the onslaught of the lady belligerents. Verily, women are like providence, in that their ways are past finding out. Hero Is a pointer for school boys and girls. Your teacher are your best frionda. Whatever they ask you to do, try to do it promptly and cheerfully. Going to school I bualneas for you, just the same aa regular buaines for the older folk, and if you neglect your business now, where and bow will yon finish your life workf Oolumbia county need a good many things, but tbe worst of all ahe should have an organisation to advance her interests. A board of trade or commer cial association would bring about many enterprises in the course of a few years that otherwise will go to neighboring oountiea. Now is tbe time lo liue op with the procession. J Mr. E. M. Wbsrton has recently dis posed of bis farm, Just below Colum bia Uity, to Mr. Joe Holaday, oi Boap- poose, and Wednesday of tbia Week left, accompauied by his family, for Newcastle, California, where be expects to permanently locate). Mr. Holaday has purchased one of the nioeat amall farms in this aeotiou of couutry. Judge Doan lat Saturday heard the petition of W. D. Cae, administrator of of tbe estate of James Cook, de ceased, for final settlement of the estate. The administrator wa dis charged, aa were alao the bondsmen, and the estate turned over to Andiew Elliott, wbo held a power of attorney from the two ben lu the old country. A letter from a reliable gentleman in Manila says the condition of the sol dier is) by no mean deplorable. Most of tbe sickness ia the direct result of wine, women and sons?. The letter say that no soldier suOer who keepa out of the night air and does not dis sipate. In fact, their life is a contin ual round of joys a perpetual picnic We believe be tells the truth. The macqiierade dance givea in this city last Friday evening, under the auspicea of the Knighta of Pythiaa, waa very much of a success, not par ticularly so from a financial stand point, but socially it eclipsed all former events in the history of the town. The best of order prevailed and all present seemed to be set on having a good lime, and certainly they bad it. Tbe receipte were equal to the expenses, however, for all of which the member ship is duly grateful. The future prosperity of Columbia county depeuda largely upon what the people of the county make it by united effort and an evincible desire to work for Columbia county and not aome particular part of it. Help build up, and not to tear down. There are many detail, however, to be thought out and worked out, and intricate prob lems solved before the wonderful re sources ol this county can be de veloped. We aak one qnestion for the solo purpose of eelling our friends lo thinking: What united effort ia being made to induce manufacturing indus tries to locale in our county and de velop our resource? What is every body's business it nobody's business. Let us be up and doing. On the 21t of thia month there ia to be a meet ing in Portland of tbe state board of Immigration, and an invitation ia ex tended to county courla and chairman of town council throughout the (tale to attend. Columbia county ihould be repreesnted there because the meet ing will be one of representative peo ple, and undoubtedly great good would oome to tiiia county should it be prop erly represented. And too, a chamber of commerce, to look after the indus trial interests of the county, could ao complin!) a great deal. Getting our products lo markQt; fruigbt rales, en couraging tbe patronage ot Dome manufacture, encouraging industries to locate here, and numeroua other matters that such an organization could take up which would be a per manent benefit to the county. If we desire to progress we must adopt the methods lor that purpo-e employed by sections of the state that are going ahead. The successful man in btui- nes studies out carefully the.amnll matters and guard them carefully, and so with our county's interest. We must took to the minor detail, and it requires an organised body to accomplish those thinga. The year at will undoubtedly be a busy year for u all, but we can well afford lu devote a portion of our time to the public' welfare. When everything i bustnw and stir propositions for public benefit are more easily accomplished. We must look after immigration, i. W& de itlre the acquisition of sturdy, indus trious husbandry. We want our hills and fertile vulleys converted into vine yards and meadows, and when this be uccomplivhed our population is natur ally increased, our wealth become greater, our taxes less, - and our inde pendence forever eatiibli.xhed, snd if a chamber of commerce or a board of immigration can accomplish any of these things it will be of lasting bene fit to our naturally wealthy county. v s f 1 flkkes t-30 food more dclidoiss end wfco-esoma Srtvi.
