A few years ago Columbia county
came Into possession of a Umatilla
county wnrrant for $.'8, which hag been
numerated anionit the assett of the
county ever since, until the clerk made
liia semi-annual statement which ap
pears in this issue. The county treas
urer received tlio cash for the warrant
abort time ago, Interest to the amount
of (4 having accrued on it.
It gives ut great pleasure to learn
from time to time of the number of new
industrial enterprises launched in this
county. We seem to be keening pace
with the rest of the state in the expan
elon of Industries. In view of this fact
there Is every reason to believe the gen
eral tendency is to go to work, in order
that we are not dropped by the wayside
In the race for industrial supremacy.
Would it not bo good policy for our
county and city olliciiils to impoae a
license upon peddlers and solicitors who
infest our precincts? All manner of
acheinera are almost dally in our midst
with propositions to catch the unwary.
Our own merchant have wares to dis
pone of and who pay tuxos to maintain I
our county and cities. The solicitor
contributes nothing but takes away a
great deal.
Senator McBride arrived down from
Portland Tuesday evening and expects
to remain hero for ten day or two weeks
njoving the exhilarating atmosphere
n't nunt for the festive pheasant. The
senator rlnda it difficult to get away from
IniBinoss matters at the metropolis, but
all must admit that he ia entitled to
gome rest and recreation after a long
and tedious siege of discharging official
obligations in Washington and at home.
While the county board of equaliza
tion was in session last week, it waa par
ticularly noted that while a few demands
were made to have individual valuations
lowered, thoro was a decided scarcity of
persona in attendance to have the
valuation on their land and other
Sroperty raised. But then it waa not
iatinctly understood that the board
waa having a meeting for that purpose.
The assessor is probably at fault for not
giving due notice.
Ed Peek displayed a beautiful speci
men of Dolly Vaiden trout on the street
hero last Saturday. The fish measured
26 inches and weighed 7 pounds. It is
a rare thing for a Dolly Varden trout to
be tnken from those waters, being in
habitants of Inrger streams hich up in
the mountains. That cpeeie of trout is
aaid to be verv destructive to young Hen,
and the statement Is verified from the
fact that Mr. Peek took a 10-Inch chub
from the stomach of the rish In question
Juat after taking it from the water.

The countv clerk on Monday collected

Some delay ha been experienced in

Mr. Uloniger also says tnat about 7000
corda ol wood bave been cut and deny
ered at the railroad and on the river bank
there this summer, for which 12.60 per
cord l being received.
While, of course, there has been tome
unpleasant weather this summer, yet
there have been a great many redeem
ing feature throughout the season, the
pleasant weatlier continuing Mr into the
tall. Now, however, the weather is pro
gressing slowly but most surely toward
(he overcoatisn and aorethroatish stage.
The lines of sadness deepen on the ice

grow louder a the day grow brieler.
while shirtwaist, darker grow apace and

Quite a number of devotees of Terpsl-
bore of this city attended the grand
ball siven at Mnvner last Sat urday night
in honor of the opening to the public of
toe new Hotel de tluhrer. rrte new
hotel, situated on the bank, of the Col
umbia, at lireen. point, just above
Ma) gor, is a handsome structure. Such
an adjunct to the town of Mayger has
loni been needed, and if the structure
can be taken as an indicator of good
qualities, the public will always he
treated well and served wun everything

the dance report a delightful time.
The county hoard of eonnllzation at
ita Hitting lost Saturday did not lower
lie rate of valuation on any items on
the roll. It was suggested that insofar
Multnomah county would lower
valuee and thus increase the amount of
state tax on smaller counties, that out
side counties should do the same. The
(acts have developed that but one or
two counties within the state have com-
loted their rolls, Clatsop being one,
here valuation, are increased about
(160,000, Had valuation, in this county
been decreased the rate would have to
be higher, hence the matter remains as
it waa, awaiting developments from
Multnomah,
Suuervisor R. H. Bailey, of road dis
trict No. 22, Yankton, wa. in town Mon
day morning circulating a subscription
paper soliciting tunns tor improving me
plank road from Yankton to Houltqn,
lie mot with-fuir success in bis en
deavors and in all liklihood there will
soon be some valuable improvements
made in the road. Mr. Bailey states
that he would like to have about 20,000
feet of plank to lay, and aa the county
court has agreeed to contribute one-
hird of the cost of any Improvement
on any road where the people contrib
ute tne balance, it is now almost certain
that enoiuih cash can be raised to go
ahead with the work.
Engineer Robert Georire. who oper
ate a large logging donkey in Muckle's
camp on the Coweeman, was called
back to nis worn ueiore ne naa nnuneu
his visit here laat week. A new hand
bad attempted to operate the machine,
nd not being accustomed to tne man
ner of hauling the logs to the chute, a
large log got the better of the engineer
pro tern and crashed down the incline,
tearimr awav a part of the engine house,
somewhat demoralising the engine and
considerably bruising the engineer. A
cessation of operations wa necessary
lor a lew days. Meanwhile a nuniDeroi
the logging crow came home on a briof
visit to relatives in tins vicinity.
Mr. C. F. Fowler, of Columbia City,
was in town last Saturday with a design
or model of an Instrument which he
had Invented for guaging and swedging
crosscut saws. Mr, Fowler haB a patent
on the invention, which he old to Mr.
(Seorgo Pago, of Clark county, Wash.
Mr. Fowler haa studied and worked at
the invention for several yeara, adding a
little to its completeness as time went
along, until he now has a perfect instru
ment, which undoubtedly will prove of
great value to user of saw of that
class. The model which Mr. Fowler
displayed was of steel, each little part
having been made by hand proving the
skill and mechanical art of the owner.
Mr. Fowler secured $600 for hi inven
tion. Will Moserve was In town the first of
the week from Westport, where he has
been engaged for Borne time on a rail
road survey from that place to Nehaletn
valley. Mr. Meserve states that he does
not know what company or who is be
hind the projoct, but that a splendid
pas ha boen located from Westport
to a point on the Flohhawk, about six
mile from Its month. The grade is not
greater than live per cent at any point
on the survey, and a roilrood can be
built over the route at a comparatively
small cost for a mountain road. The
tact is becoming quite apparent that a
railroad is soon to tap the Nehalem
country, and very likely this is intended
for a feeder to the Astoria and Portland
road, very likely under the dictatorship
of Mr. Hammond.

The semi-annual financial statement
of the county, compiled by the various
officers, which appear in this issue,
should prove a hource of much satisfac
tion to the taxpayer of the county as
well a to those in whose hands the des
tiny of the county rests. Over $23,000
of the debt haa been paid since April
lat, and witn wnat casn tne treasurer
has on hand to pay advertised warrants,
there ia but (21,206 of the county debt
remaining unpaid. The semi-annual
statement of April 1st, 1898, showed
the public debt to be $60,000, which, in
the short period of eighteen months
has been reduced two-thirds. For the
last Bix months there has been but a
trifle over $7,000 of warrants drawn,
which, to the conservative person will
be gratifying knowledge.
