OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
CONSISTENCY IS A JSWSl.
Below ar extracts taken from the
Balem Capital Journal, one of the rant
est, Bryauiard, free-silver, calamity
bowling sheets published in the state of
Oregon daring the presidential cam
paign of 1896 and the state campaign of
1898. In its ranting it depicted all
sort of dire calamities to befall the
nation in case the republican party won
the election. Warning people not to
Tote the republican ticket at the ex
pense of even suffering for something to
eat. The statement was made a number
of times with great positiveness by that
paper that if the cause of free silver
failed to win it would be an utter im
possibility for a man to secure a days
work, and starvation and destitution
were certain to befall every laborer in
the land. Here is an extract taken
, from the columns of that paper of last
week's issue, which, by his own words,
brands him as an idiot or a knave :
"Good workmen are scarce in Lane
county at present and the wages are
constantly on the increase. When the
agent for the contractors of the govern
ment work at Lane county's sea coast
was through here a short time ago he
was desirous of men at $1.75 a day for
those works. But owing to exposure to
the inclement weather and the danger
ous character of this work, good men
are loath to accept an offer of this kind.
Then the agent hinted that $2.25 per
day might be paid for experienced men,
but none were to be found at that price."
A statement of that nature is very
consistent, isn't it, in the face of all the
rot that found space in the Journal's
columns during the times mentioned T
It seems to us that if a spark of man
hood existed in such a character he
would openly acknowledge his mistake
by making a clear, concise statement in
his paper that time has proven his
theory wrong and dangerous. But in
stead, he is forced by circumstances to
acknowledge the truth, and hopes to
gain favor with the public by occasion
ally slipping a truthful item into his
columns. Below is another item from
his paper of the same week, being the
truth, brands him as a deceiver and his
whole party as a combination formed
for the express purpose of attempting
to force a bad condition of circumstances
upon the country, at the same time
knowing themselves to be deceivers of
the blackest type, caring only for the
spoils of office:
"The Booth-Kelly Lumber Company
are advertising for men at $1.75 and
$2.60 per day in their logging camps,
and these works will continue indefi
nitely, besides the number required in
harvest and hoppicking. Taking all
this into consideration it is hard to see
where Mr. Wants-work gets off atin Lane
county just at present. It be is weak
and can't do heavy work, why I then
there's the hoppicking, and the fruit
gathering, and the etrawetacking at the
threshers, and then there is the choring
on the farms, milking, etc., and in-door
work in the towns. And if be is strong,
then there ie the heavy work in the
woods, at the machine in the fields, and
on the government works, and the pay
is certain ; bat if he is strong and lazy,
then there is nothing for him to do hut
sit by bis back-woods fireside or lounge
about the street corners and howl ca
lamity while the good people feed him ;
and this costs him nothing and he gets
no pay."
The statement in the lines above
quoted is gospel truth, but coming from
the source it does proves the truthful
ness of the saying that "consistency is a
jewel." In Columbia county the same
conditions prevailed, and we heard the
statement made more than a dozen
times during the day of November 6th,
1896, by .local politicians and states
men, whose brains seem to be located
in the wrong part of their anatomy,
that a vote for McKinley meant no
work, no wages and consequent demor
alisation and starvation. It certainly
' seems to us that those astute politicians
and statesmen would be very proud of
their record in the face of the -condi
tions which prevail today, not only in
our own state, but throughout the en
tire nation.
It Is becoming quite common for some
editors to assume that the present
administration has proven a failure. In
this matter history simply repeats itself
from the days of Washington down,
Even Jefferson so far forgot himself ss
to write to a friend in Europe charging
Washington with using corrupt means
to destroy the government so lately set
up. Among other assertions this lan
guage oocurs ; "It is a subject of the
greatest astonishment that a single in-
dividual should have carried h s designs
against the public liberty so far as to !
jeopardize its very existence. Such,!
however, are the facta." Jefferson
never intended lor Washington to see j
this letter, but it was sent back to the
United States and caused a cessation of
former friendship. And when later
Washington retired from the presidency,
a Philadelphia paper expressed itself
thus: "Every heart in unison with
freedom and happyisa of the people
ought to beat high with exultation that
the name of Washington ceases from
this day to give currency to political
iniquity and legalised corruption," It
is customary now the world over to
place the name of Washington on the
highest pinnacle of honor and integrity,
yet it is evident that some of his con
temporaries were then, as several ap
pear to be now, "ferninst the govern
ment. Such a condition of affairs
would not be tolerated in any other
land except the United States, and even
here it may sometime come to pass that
the denouncers of the government will
be denominated traitors and their lib
erty restricted to the four walls of a
prison. '
BSINSTATi TNS BOARD.
One can fool all the people some of
the time and some of the people all the
time, but all of the people cannot be
fooled all the time. About a year ago a
tremendous hue and cry went up from
all over the state against the state
board of equalization, or more particu
larly against the members of that body
because they were paid an enormous
per diem for their services. We are
frank to admit that we also took a hand
the game and were as loud in our
protests and condemnation . of the
board as any in the county. The legis
lature at its next session proceeded
forthwith to abolish the board, and what
is the result T The answer is easy, but
the burden imposed will very likely be
come a tiresome load before we get thor
oughly rid of it. There being no state
board to equalize the assessments of all
counties, the assessors are at liberty to
increase or lower the valuations in their
respective counties to suit themselves,
and this fact is a danger signal that
some of the little fry counties like Co
lumbia are in imminent danger of get
ting tightly squeezed befcre relief comes.
In Multnomah county it is said that
Mr. Oreenleaf, the assessor, will reduce
the valuation of all property about $12-
000,000. Marion county will likely
reduce valuations, and a few other
counties in the state will undoubtedly
do likewise. Taking Multnomah for an
example, what will be the result on
Columbia county T When we are called
upon to pay the state about $3000 extra
as a state tax, then the result will be
understood, and the knowledge will
come with much emphasis. The entire
taxable property of Columbia county is
less than a million and a half dollars,
hence, if Multnomah county lowers the
valuation of its property $12,000,000, it
will require just nine counties in the
state with the amount of taxable prop
erty possessed by Columbia county to
make up the deficiency. A certain sum
of money is required to maintain the
state government, and if the valuation
in one county is decreased the burden
falls on another county where the valu
ations are justly rated to supply the
shortage.
A county of great wealth like Mult
nomah, Marion, Clatsop, Polk, Wash
ington, Yamhill, Clackamas and others,
can easily enough lower their values
because enough will remain to meet all
demands, but in case of Columbia
county such action is impossible, and
the burden of paying the state tax falls
upon those less able to bear it. When
a state board of equalization was in ex
istence, valuations throughout the state
were equal and Columbia county paid
as state tax all the way from $4000 to
$8000 annually, and no additional sum
charged to pay the fee of the commis
sion, bnt if our state tax next year
would happen to be about $10,000, oc
casioned by the non-existence of a state
board of equalization, we believe a pro
test would go up that we were being
systematically robbed, and we will be
surprised if such is not the case. The
members of the state board of equaliza
tion drew an inconsistent sum for their
services, but we may yet be greatly
pleased to see such a body reinstated,
la Very Properly Said.
Men will, in spite of tbe many induce
ments offered in the country districts,
flock to the large cities and invest their
money and seek employment there.
Possibly this is the reason why Oregon
is beine so slowlv developed. Take for
instance tbe dairying industry of Tilla
mook county. Here Is a safe money
making industry, fully demonstrated by
those engaged in it, which leaves not a
particle of doubt as to its financial suc
cess, yet new comers will crowd into the
large cities and allow opportunities
of becoming well-to-do dairymen slip
through their fingers. The attraction
for city life draws together a tremendous
lot of skilled and unskilled labor, which
several months in the year may be seen
eoine to waste in onr large cities in idle
men walking the streets with their
hands in their pockets, with but little
prospect that their condition will raise
above that of the band-to-mouth fashion
of eking- out an existence. Tillamook

Tom Nordby Is going to start log

Tli tiniUir lavs riizht alone the creek.
He has contracted with Wolff A Zwicker
for tbe building of a logging engine.
It is claimed that many of the Sno
homish lousing camps will be com
pelled to close down on account of a
scarcitv of labor. Laborers get from
$2.50 ti $3 per day, and even more In
some instances.
' The Orange, Branch loaded at Port
land and Kainier, Oregon, for Shanghai
and Woosung, China, recently, with
2,8tH),000 feet of lunilier. This is the
second largest cargo that ever left the
Columbia. It would have required over
two hundred cars to have hauled this
cargo.
Just to give democratic and populisttc
political conventions something else to
"view with alarm" we call their atten
tion to the fact that five new battle
ships will be added to the American
navr before the next campaign-opens.
They should not let these evidences of
militarism escape their notice.
"A mosaic of popul ism, anarchy and
public dishonor" is what General Buck
ner, who was a candidate of the gold
democrats for vice president in 1!KJ,
calls the Chicago platform. Possibly
there ruiirtit be a more irranhic dencr lo
tion of the platform than that given,
but it would be difficult to find it.
The present era of prosperity is unex
ampled in magnitude and also in the
evidence of its permanency. Every
commercial agency, as well as the ob
servations of men in trade, bear out
this assertion. It is this faith in its
permanency which causes the increased
uemaua in uie lace oi auvanciug prices.

veyor-General Habersham calls atten
tion to tne tact mat application glioma
be filed without delay. Tbe usual
preliminaries consume much time and
if settlers are in any hurry they should
not procrastinate now that there are
funds on hand.
The magnitude of tbe cattle industry
is most strikingly illustrated by the re
turns just completed by tbe Kansas
state board of agriculture which show
that the value of cattle sold for slaugh
ter in the state of Kansas during the
year ending March 1, 18V9, exceeds $50-
000,000. This represents an increase of
tl4.OO0.C00 over the product of the pre
ceding year.
Hemlock lumber is rapidly gaining in
favor. One Eastern firm has bought
80,000,000 feet of hemlock and larch
timber on the Columbia, and will build
a logging road and construct a mill to
convert the product into finishing
lumber. There are only three non
tastable woods in Oregon and Washing
ton, viz : Larch, spruce and hemlock.
The value of these timbers is yet greatly
underestimated.
Tbe price of lumber and also of logs
is advancing at all the lumbering points
on the coast, notwithstanding the fact
every logging camp is busy. In Port
laud rough lumber was recently ad
vanced $1 per thousand, while in San
Francisco the price has gone up $2. In
the latter place also a sharp raise has
been made in the price ot boxes.
This will, no doubt, result in many
more being sent from here than for
merly.
Quoting Aguinaldo's recent speech in
which he said that "some of the states
of tbe American Union have risen in
our favor, especially the democratic
party," the Louisville Courier-He raid
very tersely says: "Aguinaldo was
misinformad as to any of the states
rising in his favor, but tbe democratic
party, which has all it can do at pres
ent to rise in its own favor, has as yet
done nothing to discourage this view of
tbe Tagal insurgent."
The lumber interests of Oregon are
being pushed as they never have been
before. All through the timber districts
the old mills that have been idle for
years are now in operation. Four big
mills at least will be completed this
year and their capacity will equal fifty
per cent of the whole output of the
state a few years ago. A large number
of email mills have been added. The
beeinuine of a new centurv will see the
output of the mil's of Oregon cutting a
wide swain in tne coast trade.
If rumor is correct there will soon be
a donble tracked railroad between Port
land and Seattle, upon which the trains.
not only of the Northern Pacific, but
the Union Pacific will have joint traffic
and trackage facilities. The freight
business is heavy, and logging interests
in the lower counties of the state re
quire a number of trains daily. The
entrance of the Union Pacific into the
Sound country will have tbe effect of
immediately doubling the traffic over
the Portland branch, hence tbe pro
poned route.
There never was a time when the in
dustrial situation was so completely i
question of how to produce in sufficient
quantity of the goods that consumers are
imperatively demanding. The old de
bate as to whether it is overproduction
or underproduction that affects the
economic structure is no longer revelant.
Manv people do not know when
they are prosperous, but no thinking
man can be ignorant of the fact that at
present tne country is enwying unex
ampled business expansion and that it
is sure to continue for many months at
least. Buffalo express.
Deals have been closed within the
past few davs whereby John E. Du-
Boise of Clearfield, Pa., purchases
about 4,000 acres of timber lands in
