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

for ailverware or clothing, but secured

what was missing, aa the contunta of
the bureaus snd closets ' had been so

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

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.

How to Help a Town.
Tbe best way to build up a town ia to
land by every man in a place wbo doe
right. Whenever a man la doing well do
not tear him down. All residenta should
be partners, not opponents. In all liveli
hoods tha mors business your rival doe
th mors you will do. Every business man
who treats customers honestly, fairly and
courteously will get hi share, and the
more business that csn tie secured by united
efforts the better It will b for all. When
a town ceave to grow tt begin to die. and
more people try to kilt snch other In their
business the mure readily will utter ruin
com to nil. Stand together for tlis ad
vancement of every oltisen. It a mnn
shows ability to p osper do not pull hint
buck through -ulouy or weigh him dowu
' by a cold iniliffvronca.
