Every town hat a liar or two; a mart Aleck ; tome pretty girls ; more Ion fen than It needs; a woman or two that tallies; an old fogy that the town would be better off without; men who land on the street comers and make remarks about women ; a man who laughs an idiotio laugh every time he cayt anything; ecoret of men with the caboose of their troutert worn at tUck at glass; wen who can tell you how the war question should be settled ; the weather, and how to run. othor people's business, but who have made dismal failure of their own.

Through tlcknest of the office force and In the family and a rush of work on band Tun Mist neglected to men tion in the last issue that the Kuightt of r ythias of this city bold a public Installation of officers on Tuesday evening of last week. The families of members of the order were Invited, the total number present being about sV' enty-flve. Deputy Grand Chancellor Edwin Uoss, assisted by Fast Chancel lor Frank Dow as grand prelate, and fast Chancellor David Davis as grand master at arms, oandueted the installa tion ceremony, the orlicers for the pres ent term being 0.

A fter this ceremony the lodge room was converted into a banquet hall, tables being spread and laden with numerous delicacies, and those present proceeded to make merry a only suck a crowd oan. Many good speeches and witty sayings were indulged I ft until an extremely late hour, when the visitors retired, and the members proceed to olose lodge in the regular form. Avon lodge has the reputation of being a cay entertainer, and when a meeting is announced at which the ladies and friends are to attend, it oan confidently be expected that good time will result. This lodge is now al most five years old, and is one of the most prosperous lodget in the Oregon domain. The membership has in creased to almost rixty contributing members, and its permanency is an assured fact. Farties who have been holding West ern Oregon and Washington timber land for years are feoling greatly en couraged over the prospects of dispos ing of their property in the near future at fairly good prices. - Several traotsof Washington timber have been sold within the past few months, and a deal ia now on band, with every indication of being closed within the uoxl few Weeks, whereby local man will sell to an Eastern Arm several hundred acres of Clatsop county timber land. The growing scarcity of good timber in the Eastern and Middle states is causing the mill men to look to the coast for an available supply. Astoria Budget. The comity court has purchased a new portable saw mill for $1,200, which ia to be used for sawing out plank to be used in the construction of roads, and a the logs will not coat the county anything, for people on the roads south of here have agreed to furnish them free, so anxious are they to secure good roads, it can now be confidently relied upon that Tillamook county roads will in a few years be iu far bet ter shape to travel thun what iliey are today. Tho county judge and com missioners are generally commended lor their wisdom In purchasing the aw mill, which we believe will In the eud save the county large sum of money Tillamook Headlight. A remarkable coincidence, which may be of interest to believers in tele pathy and other kindred occult ser vices, is to be noted in connection with the recent destruction of the Fulton cottage at Seaside. On that night the members of the Fulton family were alarmed by a strange sense of smoke prevading the residence. The odor was so marked and distinct that the ladies ot the family became alarmed nd Insisted on a thorough examina tion by Mr. Fulton of the entire prem ises, which, of oourse failed to disclose uy fire. Strange as it may seem, this waa a veritable occurrence, aud believ ers in the misteriuus can make as much or little of it as they please. Astorian. An exchange has the following good advice: "Once I was young and now I am old, and I've never seen a girl unfaithful to her mother that ever came to be worth a one-eyed button to husband. It isn't a guess. It is a law of God. It isn't exactly in the bible;' but it is written large and awful in the miserable life of many a misfit home. I'm talking for the boys this time. If one of you chaps ever come cross a girl that, with a face full of roses, tays, at you como to the door, 'I can't go for thirty minutes, for the dishes are not washed,' you wait for that girl. You sit right down on the doorstep and wait for her, ' 'cause some other fellow may come along and carry her off,' and right there you have lost an angel. Wait for the girl and then tick to her like a burr to a mule's tail." If you want to be loved don't find fault; don't believe all the evil you liear; don't jeer at anybody's religious belief; don't be rude to your inferiors in social position ; don't go untidy on the plea that everybody knows you; don't repeat gossip, even if it does in terest a crowd ; don't underrate any thing because you don't possets it ; don't contradict people, even if you are lure you are right; don't believe that veryone else in the world ia happier than you ; don't conclude that you have never had any opportunities in life ; don't be inquisitive about the af fairs of even yonr mo-it intimate friends ; don't get into the habit of vulgarizing life by making fun of the sentiment of it ; dou't express a posi tive opinion unless you perfectly un derstand what yob are talking about. Don't lose sigh? of .the fact that Co lumbia county, baa a prosperous future if her citizens will only take the trouble to tell the world about our boundless resources. The snow and sleet storm of tbe pstt week snd the consequent accompany ing cold hat been a bummer. Just as an illnslraiion of how cold it baa been here in St. Helens the following state ment made to ua at different times during the weak are published. It is said that some of the boys down town found a bottle of fourth-proof alcohol froxen, last Saturday, the bottle hav ing broken, and tbe frosen substance was used to knock the icicles off the hot water tank when they were mix ing toddy. All the sun dogs froie to death, according to Sheriff Bice's statement, and a nightmare over in Charley Muckle's barn ia said to have had her hoofs frosen off. A popular young man here in town (we will not divulge any names) proposed to a so ciety yonng lady one night during tbe week, but the words were frozen before they reached the young lady'a ears, and the young man is now quite de spondent because lie has received nd answer. Martin White laid he taw Bob Uattan sink a shaft sixteen feel through the mow to find bit cow, and when he found her the gave ice cream. This is snow joke, either. Tbe smoke in Jim Sheldon's shop ohimoey froze solid, and it was found necessary to make shoepegl out of bamboo stalks in order to let tbe frost out of George Mayger's boots. Dr. Cliff loaned bis team last Sunday and tbe driver is said to have frozen and did not return here with the team until late In the night, in charge of two honest high waymen. It waa soold weather. The county oourt in session last Fri day fixed the tax levy for the year 1898 as follows : The state tax hav ing been fixed the day previous by the slate board at 5 7-10 mills, county tax 15 7-10 mills, school Ux 5 6-10, mills, soldiers' and sailors' indigent fund 1-10 of a mill, the total being 27 mills, the tame at on tbe 1897 roll The total amount ot valuation on the 1808 as sessment roll ii $1,396,080, and the 27 mill rate will raise $37,694.17, of which amount the state lax will be $7,957.66, county purposes $21,918.46, school pur poses $7,678.45, indigent fund $139.61. There will be a larger amount on the tax roll when turned over to the sher iff for collection, however, from the fact that a great many of the school districts will levy a special tax, which will add several thousand doliara to the total to be collected. The county levy as fixed this time is over two mills leas than last year, owing to the in creased state tax levy, aa tbe court did not choose to occasion a higher rale of taxation than baa heretofore existed. This reduotion will necessar ily lessen the amount of money for county purposes, notwithstanding the faot that the tax roll tula year contains about $35,000 more assessed valuation than the one last year contained. The situation ia about the same, however, under the ciroumstancee, as the legal rate of interest on warrants is reduced 2 er cent, besides the county is not so far behind on payment of warrants by several mouths, aa it has been in the past. Thb Mist is tbe official paper for Columbia county for the year 1899. The county oourt so designated it last Friday, and in tbe future, as in tbe past, tho proceedings of the county oourt, tbe only matter which this designation covers, will be printed free of charge to the county. During tbe years of 1894, 1890 and 1896 this paper did this work for nothing. In 1897 the work was dons by the News free of charge, but that paper charged 15 cents an inch for printing the proceed ings during the year just ended. The bid of the Newt man to do the work for the year 1899 was 1 cent a line while Thb Mist offered to and will print the proceedings without cost to the county. It It a matter of news to our readers, and the proceedings will appear regularly in our paper as soon after the oourt adjours earh term aa it it possible for the clerk to prepare the copy, and while we are looking for all the legitimate business there is to be had at reasonable compensation, we do not tee why Columbiacouuty should ray to have tbe proceedings of the court printed in any particular paper when all the papers are obliged to fur nish the court proceedings to their readers at all events. Thi Mist al ways has, and will continue to print all the county news. .. . Editor Curtis, publisher of the As toria Herald, and member ot the legis lature from Clatsop county, doesn't take much stock in football, and he will probably try aud have It abolished at this session of the legislature, lie has announced bis purpose to Intro duce sucn a mil. These are dull days for the newt- paper. Notwithstanding the fact that the advertising patronage it light at this season of the year the expense of getting out a papor remains just tbe same if anything slightly increased. If you have not paid your subscription you could do us a great favor by doing soaloooe. " On behalf of myself and wife I wish to extend thanks to the good people of St. Helens and Houlton for the pleasant surprise donation party given us last Saturday evening. They left our larder well stocked, which, with $8.80 cash, amounted to about $22.50. I especially feel grateful for the good will and appreciation shown by one and all Bar. G. G. Halsy. ' The legislature will have no possibil ities of obstruction to mar its progress in the coming session, and an open Held for work will be left to it. It is to be hoped, however, that in the un obstructed opportunity for legislation that ambitious legislators will not force upon the people any more superfluous laws. The state already has too many laws of a useless character, and some time might be profitably spent in re pealing a few of them. Intelligent methods are the needs of the state at large In the improvement of our roads, as well as an appropria tion of money for the purpose. Legis lation may be needed, but about as much as anything that is needed is energetio action by residents of the district, and the manifestation of a de sire to actually make improvements that will be of benefit and not merely to get tbe lob done regardless of the advantage that will follow. Eugene Guard. Thb Mist takes this means of thank ing its correspondents. We realize the i in porta ut part our contributors have taken in making Thb Mist a live and newsy county paper. Without your assistance it would nave been a difit cult matter to have attained tbe suo- cess which the paper baa met with.

All we require is that your uame ia signed to the manuscript to prove Its genuineness. We do not want to print your name. All neces sary stationery and sumps are fur nished to regular correspondents. Before Judas Doan Tuesday even ing wat heard s writ of habeas corpus in the case of Mary A. Gaston vs. o. A, Sanford. The warrant for arrest was issued out of tbe circuit oourt last Saturday, charging defendant with attempting to abscond and thus de fraud bis creditors. Mr. Sanford wai arrested on Monday evening, after re turning from Portland. At the habeas corpus hearing defeadant was ordered released from the custody of the sher iff on the ground that insufficient evi dence had been produced to warrant his retention Voider the circumstances. . Last Saturday evening there was a surprise donation party tendered Rev. and Mrt. Haley at their home in this city, by the people of St. Helens and Houlton. The donations were numer our aud useful and the surprise was complete. After a brief time spent at the house the assemblage was invited by the Masonic fraternity to repair to their lodgeroom," wnlch was accepted, and where two ' or three honrs were very enjoyably spent. Professor Hoist will give a basket ball in the opera house in this city on Friday evening, January 20th. Each lady attending will be expected to take a basket of lunch, which will be auctioned and sold to tbe highest bid der. Admission, 60 eenta for gentle men, ladies free. Mr. D. W. Freeman, of Fiahhawk, was a passenger down on the Shaver Tuesday evening from Portland. Mr. Freeman was returning from a trip through Washington county, where he purchased a team of four-year-old colts. . Friend Freeman will drive a fancy team. , Columbia county begins tbe new year nnder the most favorable condi tions and everything indicates great prosperity for our business interests aud a marked improvement all along the line in our county. We are bound to grow and thrive with the passing years tbe location and natural re sources and natural conditions make it not only possible, but positively cer tain. A little energy exercised, bow ever, by our citizens would add greatly to the development of tbe county to a wideawake and thriving taction. Our requirement! are many and can only be obtained by push. Let every citi zen itrive to aid in our general ad vancement during the year 1899. Senators come high, but they are an indispensable commodity. As a result of Oregon's special session bf the legislature last October the stale lax levy is over 2 mills higher than it waa last year. Tbe special session disposed of much work which was nec essary to be accomplished as soon aa possible, yet we believe the principal factor in prompting its convening was the election of a senator. The time between the special and regular ses sions waa so short that we believe it would have been possible for Oregon to have survived the unpleasantoees of remaining two or three months longer with but one senator. The action of tbe legislature now in session will dein enstale whether or not the speoial ses sion wat a good thing. Under Oregon's tax law all school districts and municipalities mutt make their tax leviet and certify the tame to the county clerk during the month of January of eaoh year. As school dis tricts mutt make their leviet by vote of the people, and a ten days' notice ia required to call a meeting, director! of school dislrioti should make their ar rangements accordingly. It must be understood, however, that tbe law is explicit in its explanation that before lbs levy in a district ia made it is first necessary fur the school clerk to obtain from tba county clerk a certified state ment of the amouotof assessable prop erty iu each district. The county clerk now hat the required data prepared, and until it ia received by the district olerk no special levy should be made. Mrs. Mclntire, a lady who recently located in this city and baa a dress making parlor in tbe Gable building, sustained a fracture of the left wrist last Friday by falling on the slippery sidewalk near Dr. Cliff's office.
