A town, unlike a city, i no place to
foster jealousy and nourish contentions.
All should learn to know that whatever
will conduce to the welfare of a town
mi not injure her citixena. The dispo
sition made manifest by her citixen
point to her downfall or rise. Harmony
among the people of a community i as
necessary to their success as is air to

Nearly twenty members of the Trinity

land contingent returned to Portland on
the Hassalo.
A passenger rate war la fairly on and
the transportation companies are throw
ing out inducements to the public
which make it cheaper to travol than
remain at home. The steamboat seem
to tie after the scalps of the railroad
people, putting the tare from Portland
to Astoria down to 50 cents, which rate
was met by the rsilroad. The steamer
Canby, on the Rainier-Portland run,
reduced the fare to 26 centa for the
round trip, while the Iralda, on the
same run, reduced the fare to 46 cents
one way. Competition is . the life of
trade, and the public accepts the new
condition with no misgiving, to be
ure.

Considerable excitement prevailed for
a lew momenta laat Sunday evenlngat the
steamer lauding at this place, when a
passenger for the Bliaver was precipitated
to the water, caused by the foot plank
slipping from the wharf. The steatner
llwaco was lying next to th wharf and
it was necessary lor the Beaver's pan
senuers to nas over her nnner deck,
The gentleman was attempting to de
scend the plank, with a heavy grip in
his hand, when the plank slipped, and
all took an involuntary bath. Only a
couple of minute time was consumed
in rescuing ins uniortunst passenger,
deed fortunate that he was not killed.
A case in the lustice court here on

excitement among the law fraternity.

Senator McBride cam in from the
Dolman camD at Bunker bill laat Friz
day and on haturday continued to Port
land, where he went to attend to Im

stated that be expected to go to Wash
ington on important uueiness, wnicn
would necessitate an absence from this
state of three weeks, when be would
return to tins city to remain until about
the 26th of Novemlier. Senator Mc
liride ia much improved in health and
unless some unforsnen circumstance
takes place to impair his vitality, he
will be able to enter upon the discharge
of his olllcial duties in December with
f raster seal and energy than ever be
ore, notwithstanding the arduous tasks
he lias conquered heretofore.
A cord of string beans sound rather
exaggerative, but we feet justified in
saying there was almost a cord in the
lot of beans sent to this office laat Sat
urday by Mrs. Goea, who resides on the
lilakesley place, near Houlton. Not
from their number, particularly, but
from their lixe. we are prompted to
sneak. They were of the ''Caseknife"
variety, many ol them being an men
wide and twelve inches long. They
were brittle and juicy and added an im
portant feature to the Sunday dinner of
"ye editor' ana lamuy. Mr. jess
Hendricks, of Perls, also brought to
this olllce a few days ago sample of a
very large and delicious variety ol string
beans, something new in this vicinity,
which proves that any aud all varieties
of vegetation grow and mature in the
most perfect condition in tin county.
Mis Marguerite Longacre, of Port
land, at the fall examination only
recently held of the Chicago musi
cal college, waa the successful competi
tor among 318 contestants, for the free
scholarship offered by that institution
for vocal anility and talent. Miss Long
acre is a pupil of the college and poses
see an excellent voice, from the cultiva
tion of which her friends expect much
in the future. The competition In which
she successfully engaged waa confined
to her fellow students, who are from an
parts of the country, and was estab
lished by the college lor Uie purpose ot
encouragiug the development of musi
cal talent among them. In addition to
vocal music, Mia Longacre is taxing
the full course in elocution, physical
culture and instrumental music pro
vided by the college. Hiss Longacre la
well known in this county, having
taught school at different place here in
the past.

Statesman err in us mnwu
farmers of Columbia county, at least,
are endeavoring to supply the demand
for cattle, but, of course, cannot do it.
One reason to be aseigned for thistm
poseibility is the fact that for a period
of tlireo or four years recently, there
was no demand for beef cattle and farm-
i ,4;uwMirfiAil nt low rjrices.
The herds were allowed to diminish in
number until few, If any, oeei came
were to be found in thS county. For a
vear or two, demand ho been better
and prices very high, but a scarcity of
trood beef animals obtain. The fact of
the matter is, Columbia county is un
able to supply the demand for many
commodities, but what of them are to
bo had, command a high figure, spot
cash and gold standard dollars. More
attention ia being given by our takers
to stockraislng and in future will be
hotter able to meet the demand,
