OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Tbb West will scon be teeming with
home-seekers ; but, like a stage coach,
this country is never fall, and there's
room enough for all, if they are made of
the right kind of material. It takes grit
to get along in the West, and with plenty
of that, success is assured.
Evisr person in this county who has
ny knowledge of the importance of the
dairying industry will readily admit
that the establishment of creameries at
different locations wonld be a thing
much to be desired. Let us foster their
establishment, by all means.
Ths agitation for better roads from
the Columbia river into the Nehalem
. valley, started by Tus Mist last sum
mer, seems to have struck a very popu
lar chord. The effort to improve the
road from St. Helens to Vernonia is
causing the people of other sections of
(he county to make an effort to secure
the Nehalem trade by improving exist
ing roads. Would to the good Lord
there were a third of a dozen plank or
corduroy roads from the Columbia river
into the Nehalem valley. There is more
than one possible route for an outlet for
the Nehalem people, and the way for
them to get a good road is to work for
their own best interests with people of
other points mutually interested. It is
' quite natural for those living along the
several proposed routes to be interested
in their especial section, and we hope
the interest attains to such proportions
that at least three good routes are soon
put in passible condition. It is good
roads we want, not the upbuilding of
any particular section of the county if
that means the destruction of interests
in some other- portion. We should be
mutually interested so far as possible in
upbuilding and developing the entire
county. We want our population to in
crease, and one of the best ways to bring
bout the desired result is to have good
roads leading throughout the county.
We glory in the ambition of the people
of any part of the county to build and
have good roads. It is a mark of enter
prise, and merits commendation. The
county, generally, is not so fixed as to
aid in this Important work, and inde
pendent action anywhere is all the more
to be admired.
Ths world loves a flash ; its heroes
muBt blow trumpets. The pomp and
heraldry of war stirs the heart and fires
the brain today just as effectively as in
olden times when David paralyzed Go
liath with the frizzled end of a porphyry
dike. Thus history is a record of blood
shed midget against midget in the great
universe, fighting over cobwebs and the
honor of our anthills, until fleet-footed
time launches the brief, fidgety lives of
all into the capacious vortex of eternity.
The pages of history are patented to the
heroes of war. He can eternally scatter
the internal viscera of the enemy to the
four winds with a rapid-fire machine
gun, The seeker after bubble reputa
tions e'en at the cannon's mouth the
political puppy with i pull are remem
bered, but what heed is given the heroes
of peace? The man who patiently strug
gles with adversity who labors day in
and day out in dangerous vocations, in
a solemn march with death, that his
loved ones may live he, too, is a hero.
Home heroes find no record in musty
tomes; no sounding timbrel notes their
advent; no roses are scattered in their
paths their deeds are recorded only
upon the pages of the white, unsullied
register in that "mansion not made with
hands; eternal in the heavens." We
have Jur full quota of these heroes here.
God bless them 1 They are delving in
the mines 'mid dismal and portentous
shadows ; they labor in every walk of
life, carrying with heroic smiles the bur
dens of the day and making possible the
home sunshine that nurtures civilization
and builds up the noble, manly instincts
of the race. The pioneers of this erst
while wilderness, who stake their lives,
their fortunes and their hopes in the un
folding of a new empire and the creation
of a commonwealth, are home heroes.
The prospectors who cheerfully faced
hardships and privations undreamed of,
that others may garner the wealth their
indomitable courage compelled nature
in her most rugged shape to disclose, are
home heroes, The men who throw thejr
restjess energies into the development of
pur industrial life are home heroes and
ehe4 the luster of their efforts over
thousands of happy homes, All honor
to the horns hero, who makes it possible
for man to live, rattier than glorious for j
him to die.
PLANK HOAP8 THE REMEDY.
The Only Solution of Good Koad
and How to Qec them. ,
The construction of tfood road has
received considerabla autmtion iu West
ern Washington, ami as vet the only
practical system that has been devised
by which our roads can be improved is
Hi plana meiu. una svowmi ih quite ca
twnsive. although the timber from which
the lumber may be cut is at hand. But
bad roads are very expensive. The wear
and tear of wagons, harness and horses
which they entail amounts to no small
sum every year, and the farmer is shut
out of the market and from all social
intercourse with neighbors frequently
for lomr periods. All this is a loss, and
a serious one so serious that in many
sections where .the conditions are alto
gether favorable to road improvements,
there should be no negligence in the
matter.
No one should object to the small out
lay necessary to make a good serviceable
road when only a small outlay is needed.
Every road should be made as good as it
is possible to make it at reasonable ex
pense,for money thus expended will
pay a large dividend.
Our county commissioners have been
considering the matter of inaugurating
the planking system in tnis county, cor
dnrov havintr moved unsatisfactory. In
fact they have so far considered that
they have appropnatea Jiwuior me pur
chase of a rjortttble sawmill. Some are
inclined to kick against this means of
securing plant: tor the roaas. However,
it is believed that if care is exercised in
the operation of the mill the better grade
of lumber cut could be sold for enough to
pay the expenses of planking the road
with second-class lumber, which will
last as long on the roads as the first-class
lumber. If this be true there is no reason
why the board of commissioners should
not proceed with the work of making
good roads. CowliU (Wash.) Advocate.
THE PEE SYSTEM.
Not a Brilliant Success, Says a Oor
xvvallts Paper.
We never could understand why the
taxpayers of the state outside of Alult-
noman county should ne soeagertoaooi
ish the fee system for county officers and
constitute salaries. The result has cer
tainly not iustifled their expectations,
so they keep cutting away at salaries,
until soon it will be a hard matter to get
competent men to fill the offices. Under
the fee system the county paid its officers
in fees less than one-half what it pays
them now in salaries, and to some of its
officers it paid nothing at all. - The bal
ance was paid by litigants or by those
needing the services of the county officer.
The idea of the salary system is that of
ficers must collect fees as usual ana turn
them over to the county, and in this way
the county hopes to reimburse itself for
the officer's salary. In no instance that
we ever heard of has this idea been ac
complished. The officer has no means
of enforcing collection of fees, and if he
had he would not do it, for every officer
hopes to succeed himself. The net re
suit is that the counties pay out every
year for salaries of county officers more
than twice as mucn as tney ever aiu
under tbe old fee system. If the fees
were high it was an easy matter to re
duce them, and we are of the opinion
that this is what should have been done.
Union-Gazette,
Transient Cannot Fish.
An examination of the sections of the
fish bills of Oregon and Washington rel
ative to the issuing of fishing licenses
shows that in neither state can the fish
ermen, who have been accustomed to
come here each season from California,
obtain licenses to fish on this river. The
laws are very strict on that point, requir
ing not onlv that the applicants for li
censes must be citizens of the United
States, but they roust also be bona fide
residents for at least six months of one
of the states bordering on the Columbia
river. Our local fishermen should see to
it that those provisions are strictly en
forced on both sides of the river, as it
would redound directly to the benefit of
the fishermen themselves in keeping out
a large number of men who come into
competition with them each season.
That an attempt will be made by many
of these men to fish is certain, as a num
ber of them are already here, and claim
to have tbe backing of some of the can
nery men. It is. proper then that those
fishermen whose interests are protected
by the law should m every way possible
lend their aid to the officers in enforc
ing it.
Bu-ack by Lightning.
The craze over heroic advertising
seems to have been run into the ground
by some ardent crank in Jasper, Ind. A
notice of a religious revival at that place
reads as follows : "Struck by lightning I
Jasper all on (ire 1 Fire started in tbe
'Amen corner of the Free Methodist
church last Sunday, assisted by the Bev.
utoerteanx, 01 jasper, assisted Dy tne
Ram's Horn band, of Adrian, and others.

assisted by hook and ladder company,

their souls. Mothers have especial in
vitation to come and bring their crying
babies. No terris trial loafers allowed on
the scene." . . '
All After Kasaon Smith.
Bev. Kasaon Smith, who spent a few-
months in Roeeburg, leaving for Eastern
Oregon last summer, has a woman hot
on his trial, says the Review. Mrs. Mol
lis Smith writes to the sheriff, claiming
to be Kasson's wife and wanted to know
his present whereabouts. She ssys he
left her in 1898 without being divorced,
and understands that he has a wife at
Milton, Eastern Oregon, who he also de
serted. She wrote to the sheriff of Walla
Walla county, Wash., and he answered
that Kasson had six wives. Mrs. Smith
states that part of her husband's religion
was that a man should be entitled to all
the wives he wanted. Evidently, if her
story be true, Kasson is practicing what
he preaches.
