Who la to Blame? ,
(To the Editor.) If we sow thistle,
according to the laws of nature, we must
expect to reap a harvest of toe same.
There ia an old and very timely saying,
"Wa cannot handle ooals without soiling
our hands," and it I just a applicable
to our association a to our work. If
parents have no more care or forethought
than to allow their son and daughter
to mingle promiscuously with all grade
of society, having no choice a to culti
vation or moral, they need not be sur
prised at the result. The gathering
together in the country or village dance
of all nationalities of ail ago from the
wise old bachelor to the little mis of ten
nd the blushing leaning girl of twelve
or fourteen year eannot but result In
tears and shame to someones' household.
Such ha been the experience of the
past ; such may be in the future. Care
ful a parent may be there ia enough of
in and wickedness open to the young
without (auctioning or permitting the
innocent, unsophisticated girl unre
strained in the dance hall with each as
would not be allowed to pay their ad
dresses at their home. If the son and
daughter cannot be brought under
parental restraint they had better be
under the discipline of a reformatory.
Too often home are not what they
should be in the way of amusement.
Music, game and attractive, wholesome
reading, together with the pleasurable
mingling of selected company, will go
far toward restraining the children from
dehire to rush headlong into all kind
of society. : There baa been bitter tear
over the wrongdoings of our girla and
boys, and if parents are not allowed or
will not choose companionship for their
families, more regrets will be recorded.
Be not In haste to have someone else
take the responsibility of caring for
your daughters. It may take days of
toil and nights of anxiety to plan aa to
how thev shall be properly clothed and
fed, but ft will not be a anxious and
heartachina aa the future home-coming
from an early, unwise and unhappy mar
riage, to say nothing of the possibility
of darker clond, occasioned by the
sanctioning of improper associations.

Mr. J. (i. Watts to be on Ore. and that
gentlemen hastened to tbe premise, and
quickly had the flames under control.
The family waa absent from home at the
time, and it ia fortunate that Mr. Watt
discovered the ore at tne time ne aia.
The woodwork around the flue wa

sparks from another stove, the pipe
from which waa in tne same nue.
"" Fishing Season Opened.
Last Saturday afternoon the fishing
season opened, and in an incredibly abort
time there we is over tnree ton oi sal
mon cauirht and ' delivered to Fish
Agent Sheldon. It was a miraculous
run of flab, and the boys reaped har
vest while it lasted. The first day of
the season last year there wero only
bout two tons of fish delivered here,
and the second day the amount waa far
less. This season mere were aa many
fish delivered on the second day aa there
were on the first. The run slacked off
for a day or two but at present fish are
running very weiu
As Solid" as Ever. '
Ths safe which Mr. Dlllard recently
purchased waa removed from the Harris
atore-huilding laat Saturday afternoon
into tbe street, where it remained over
Bundav. Durine its sojourn there some
one found the sign used by 'the defunct
banking Institution, and displayed it
prominently over the safe. To the cas
ual observer the thought immediately
presented itself that the institution was
a reliable in its condition at that time
a ever. Better, even, than that. iss
damage wa apt to result to the public
than when the frailty of the concern wa
covered up by an "incorporated banking
tShonld Be Considered.
The fact of the Arbor Day observance
by the public school in this city last Fri
day helnir nonnned entirely to indoor
exercises la a forcible reminder that our
school grounds are decidedly inadequate
to all demands, and arrangements shou Id
soon be perfected whereby a more ault-
Die site and building migot oe secured.
The proposition mentioned some time
since in our columns regarding the prac
ticability of the tlouiton and tst. neien
district combining interests and jointly
erecting a beautiful and adequate build
ing at a convenient piace between we
two town would render it possible to
beautify the premise, besides giving
much better facilities for educational
training. . - - v . ,,
Many Apple Trees Bet Out.
The good price paid tor Oregon apples
the past winter has stimulated the set
ting out in Columbia county of good
many young trees during the planting
season, now drawing to a close, and nur
serymen have been shipping large
numberof the choicest varieties of apples
to points all over Oregon, Washington
and Idaho. The apple trees have be
come a favorite, not only because the
fruit pays better for its raising, but on
account of the trees wintering well.
Winter freezes seldom have any terror
for the apple-raiser, and late frost very
rarely Injure the apple blossoms. The
eodlin moth gets in its work aa the fruit
is forming, but judicious system of
spraying will bring these ravages down
to minimum. The dealers in nursery
stock think the demand for apple trees
will Increase every year from now on for
some time to come. -
, A Business Proposition.
The same degree of business tact should
be employed in dealing with public af
fairs as a careful and conservative man
would exercise In handling his own orl
vate Individ ual atfHir, and for this reason
we state that the present system of pay
ing suiBnei hj county oiucers, a against
the old fee system, Is a gigantic fraud
and child's-play method of doing busi
ness. Would a careful business man
pay a greater sum of money for salaries
ior nis employes tnan his buslnes I
earning him? And wa nut n a mnra unn
or Justice in a county paying more for
tne salaries oi its pincers than ths omce
earna in fee to maintain the ofHce. Of
course, most of the offices of county
have no mean of earning anything, and
in such cases it is only luet and nrooer
that the officer is adequately compen
sated for his services, but where it is
possi bie to make an office pay its wav.such
a system snouia certainly be adopted.
in uenton county the officers have
been paid 142.760 since the salary law
took effect, July 1st. 1804. and the rev
enue the county derived from all offices
is H.wo in the same period. The county
is behind on salaries iust 136.000. In
Columbia county the system bas worked
very much in the same manner.- Since
July 1st, 1804, tbs clerks of this county
uonn pw )io,&ia.o, ana tne omce
has earned for the county (10.886. In
other words, ths office has cost the
county 12,428, which is far better than
the sheriff's office has lieen able to do.
In the same length of time the sheriff's
office bas cost the county (12,626 in sal
aries, while it iias returned to the county
exchequer in fees only (1081. Thus in
order to maintain the sheriff's office it
lias been necessary to pay the officials
11,463 more than the office bas earned.
It ia no fault of tbe officials ; it simply
lies with the system, and we believe the
oDjeci lesson at nome la sumcient to con
vince the strongest advocate of ths sal
ary, system of its utter inadequacy and
inconsistency. Who are they that can
ustny this thing?. Most of this deficit
paid by men who never have work
done by the county officer, and the of
ficer are obliged to work aa hard aa they
ever did for nothing, and for neoole who
can well afford to pay. The sheriff, who
uugui. vu iwikkf in ieea an amount at
least equal to half his salary, now col
lects comparatively nothing. Thus, the
only source of revenue from fees is from
the clerk. Strangers from other coun
ties and from other states come in to
our officers and have work done by them
ior notning under the law, that used to
be decent revenue under the fee system,
We Decline to Print Iu .
This office is in receint of eomranni
cation from a prominent populist leader
of this county, sent ia for publication.
The writer deals very severely harshly
with certain local members of his party
organization, and for good reasons we
refuse to give it space at this time. In
the first place tbs writer only reiterates
what everyone in the county knows
that a sn organisation of reformers ths
party has been a dismal failure. In the
second place, people aa a rule, do not
care to read constantly of the shortcom
ings, real or imaginary, of tbe member
of any political party. There Is a time
for that variety of literature, and that
that time is not now.' Further, the peo
ple of this county are well pleased with
the administration of public affairs, and
to start the weak and weakening strug
gle or populism on course ot treatment
for recuperation by such methods would
only widen tbe chasm which exists in
that party, local and national. Our
charity, our sympathy for people, some
oi wnora were earnest in their igno
rance, prompts the refund. When the
time arrives for the discussion of who
should have the various county posi
tions we expect to pick up our cards
and play the band for every point there
i in it, considering qualification the
rst requisite at all times, but at pres
ent the discussion is untimely and un
called for. We do not question tbe sin
cerity of the writer, but we consider his
judgment very poor In taking up tbe
subject, even though it has been already
launched. His points may or may not
be well taken, but we decline to give
the article space because it not onlv haa
no interesting feature for us, but tbe
fiuDiic in general aoes not care to reaa
he airings of all dirty nieces of linen.
In the next place, occupying the posi
tion we do in the orginaxithtion of the
republican party in this county, the im
pression would at once be created that
we courted such inethode in soliciting
"roasting-" communications from nar-l
sons in ins populist party merely be
cause many of its members are opposed
to the methods employed by another
wing of their organization. The Dartv
has no footing, has no ground on which
to stand and make a campaign that would
court favor with the people. : Populists
may fight smona themselvea all they
choose; it has no concern for us or the
public, because the party is known only
as a party of opposition, and when it is
unsuccessful in opposing tne republican
party which is all the time it degen
erates, and starts tbe crusade amona Its
own numbers. , ..

Pythias, of this city. Grand Chancellor
Cake, of Portland, paid the lodge an of
ficial visit, and the benefit resulting to
the membership will be lasting. Brother
Cake seems to be endowed with the fac
ulty of drawing the members of the or
der to him. Ilia ease and gentleness of
manner banishes all fear with his broth,
era to approach him on matters of busi
ness and work of the order, the result
being that he is doing great good in this
domain. Brother Cake haa splendid
ideas on bow the inner working of the
order should be conducted, and hia
cleverness in making hia knowledge
known and felt by the brotherhood Is
such as to inspire every member to re
newed energy and effort. Tbe lecture
lasted nearly two hour, after which the
lodge room wa soon converted into a
