OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Tub political arena is extremely qniet
In Columbia county. Politicians m.iv
lie extremely active, but their work is
of a quiet nature.
Now doth the the busy politician im
prove each shining hour, repairing
fences broken down by the opposition's
"jour." Milton Eagle.
It is no longer conjecture as to what
the subject for discussion is when you
see two or more men engaged in conver
sation. This is the political season of
the year.
Coli'Hbia county is entitled to the
joint senator this year, but it is dollars
to doughnuts that we do not get it.
Washington county again has designs on
the place.
Fisn Commissioner Little, of Wash
ington, collected $40,000 last year for
licenses from fishermen and canners.
He expects the receipts from the same
sources to be $60,000 during the pres
ent year.
Politicians may condemn the Ding
ley tariff law, but its effect upon the
United States treasury is vastly more
salutary than was that of its predec
essor, the Wilson tariff law. Buying
bonds in time of war beats selling bonds
in time of peace.
Aocisaldo has deserted his cause and
his country and fled to Asia. His for
mer conduct would lead to the belief
that he would be capable of just such
an act. He succeeded in embroiling his
countrymen in rebellion against the
authority of this nation, and when in the
thick of the fray he becomes a deserter.
And some people in America have the
audacity to bold such a specimen up as
a martyr.
At the precinct primary elections to
be held on the 31st of this month it
should be borne in mind by the voters
that the nomination of a justice of the
peace and a constable should be made,
and it must be particularly remembered
that the primary convention is the
proper time and place for nominating
the road supervisor for that road dis
trict. In precincts where there are two
road districts there should be two nomi
nations made. Do not leave this matter
to be disposed of by the nominating
convention.
One cannot get a better idea of Sen
ator McBride's standing among his fel
low committee members than by glan
cing at the names of the men who make
up what is familiarly known aa the
Philippine Commission. With one ex
ception the entire committee, Senator
McBride being a member, is made np of
men who have seen more than one term
of service in the senate, and with two
exceptions, McBride and Beveridge, all
are veterans. Two of the most promi
nent men upon the foreign relations
committee were taken ; from the appro
priations committee was selected its
chairman, Senator Allison, of Iowa, the
honored leader of the senate ; from the
committee on naval affairs, its chair
man, the veteran Senator Hale, of
Maine; from the committee on agricul
ture, the distinguished senator from
Vermont, Redfleld 8. Proctor, the for
mer Secretary of War ; and Sentor Mc
Bride himself is chairman of the com
mittee on coast defenses. Senator
Beveridge, though a young man, is rec
ognized as a careful student who has
made a special subject of the Philippine
people, their customs, manners, laws
and their condition under Spanish rule.
But for this he could not have hoped to
secure a place upon so important a
committee.
The report of the condition of the na
tional treasury, published on Tuesday,
bIiows almost $550,000,000 on hand, as
follow : Available cash balance, $303,
075,056; gold -reserve, $242,931,049.
This is a quite different condition of
national financial affairs from that ex
isting when the present republican
administration took charge of the gov
. ernment. Mr. Cleveland's administra
tion found almost as much cash in the
treasury when it was inaugurated as
there is at the present time, but before
his tenure of office had expired there
was less than (62,000,000 in the gold
reserve fund, notwithstanding the fact
that the laws are such that no adminis
tration shall reduce the gold reserve j
fund to an amount less than 1100,000,-1
000. Furthermore, Mr. Cleveland's
administration, besides expending the
etish it found on hand when iniuigur
atetl, it sold goM-benring boiuli of the
gorcriunent to tlio nuiount of $-C2,000-000
to raise sufficient cash to run the
government in time of profound peace.
The present atlmtnstration has con
ducted war for aljnost two years, at a
necessarily immense cost to the govern
nicnt, issuing, of course, $250,000,000 ot
war bonds, but tlie treasury today shows
almost $500,000,000 mora on hand than
was the rase when it took hold of the
govermontal affairs. This is a condi
tion to be regarded with some degree ot
consideration and is record ot no little
significance upon which the republican
party can justly asa commendation.
f,0OQ NQ OUTLOOK FOR 1900.

Facta and Figure.
''liog. are scarce and in such good de
mand on toe Columbia river that tney
can hardly be obtained at any price.
Most of the annual output of the large
firms has been engaged by niillmen in
advance, and timber is being cut now
to nil orders. The loggers are doing
their best to get out all the logs possible
and man? niillmen have been turned
down in the past few weeks.

mills will require 100,000,000 feet more
this year than last. Other mills will
also require a proportionate increase.
Logs being now scarce and the East
ern and i'ennoyer mill not started, the
prospect for a reduction in price is not
warranted by any sign. It is doubtful
whether the Columbia river camp will
increase their output 100,000,000 in 1000.
Logs are cash, employes, as a rule,
get paid promptly, in fact, whenever they
want money tney get it. Kothing is so
conspicuous on' the Columbia as the
logger's check, which goes for its face iu
all transactions. There is very little
"stand-otT in logging camps, because
logging hands are scarce, and prompt
payment of wages is necessary to secure
them and keep them at work.
There is no present sign in the situa
tion that forbodes a reduction in the
price of logs. There is prospect of a
rise, as much of the available timber is
going into the hands of large syndicates
capable of holding off for tatter prices.
In a short time the small loggers will
have difficulty in finding logging shows,
and then prices will rise far above what
thev are now.
SUPERVISOR MUDDLE.
Plan to Overcome
that Might
Any Difficulty
Art.
Tiiere is considerable activity among
the leading men in various country pre
cincts, looking toward the nomination
of candidates for load supervisors, to be
named at the county convention, and in
many cases efforts will be made to se
lect delegates to the convention with a
view solely to their position on the
candidacy of certain aspirants for the
position of road supervisor, losing sight
of the more important places to be hi led
by the convention. This is liable to
have bad results, and it has been sug
gested that the choice of candidates for
roau supervisors be made at the primar
ies, the delegates simply pledging them
selves to abide by the choice of the
voters at the primaries iu their respect
ive precincts. In the precincts where
open primaries are held the matter can
be easilv adjusted bv choosing the road
supervisor hrst, the candidates for dele
gates, chosen thereafter, pledging them
selves to present the choice 01 the pri
mary to the county convention for rati
fication, in the precincts where closed
primaries are held, it is suggested that
the voters, when preparing their ballots,
write the name of their choice for road
supervisor on the ballot, the one receiv
ing the majority, or a plurality, to be
pretented to the convention, bv the
delegates, as the precinct's choice. This
would take the road supervisor's hjht
out of the contest for delegates, and
would not embarrass the convention.
This procedure is pronounced legal by
the liest authorities, and is perfectly
feasible. Salem Statesman.
OFFERS A CORRKCTION.
To the Editor. Please allow me to sav
for the farmers of Nehaleui that the
statement in the telegraphic dispatch
from Astoria, which appeared in your
Eaper of the 9th of March, classing Man
ane as a farmer, is a complete false
hood. We have no such farmers here,
and declare we never will. Before bis
marriage he claimed a partnership in
the sawmill of the Lane Brothers, at
Mist, (now of Deep creek). Since his
marriage he would claim anything to
avoid manual lobor. If the writer from
Astoria had pnblished or commented on
the villainy of turning such criminals
loose unpunished in the last few years,
we farmers would think he had judged
matters justly. We see violations of the
law daily and conclude to bear it, until
it becomes insnpportable, as in the pres
ent instance, rather than swell our tax
list with court expenses, and with but
little hope of punishing the aggressor.
Now, Mr. Editor, this gives the senti
ments of Nehalein farmers. I have lived
here twenty-one years, and can say that
our breeches hang so low now that if we
have to pay any more court expenses
and criminals go unpunished, farmers
must either go naked or borrow some
good strings from old Kentucky or North
Carolina until we have tune to raise
some hemp in Oregon. Ex-Governor
Lord's wife advocated flax raising so
that Oregon women might learn to spin,
therebyasisistingtheir husbands through
hard times. Our wives feel very grate
ful to her ladyship for the good example
and encouragement, and propose to carry
me industry stui mriuer. xney ten us
now that we must have both flax and
hemp; the flax they will convert into
an article 01 ciouung, ana tne neunp tney
mean to use for medicinal purposes.
They claim if the article is ptoperly
medicated and carefully administered
one dose is sufficient in the worst stages
of disorder. A Nkiialem Fabjieb.

We have saved many doctor bills since
we began using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in our home. We keep a bot
tle onen all the time and whenever nnv
of my family or myself begin to catch
cold we begin to use the Cough Kemedy
and as a result we never have to send
for a doctor and incur a large doctor bill,
for Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy never
fails to cure. It is certainly a medicine
of great merit and worth. D. 8. Meab

The entertainment given at the school
house on Friday evening last was first-
class. It was due to f ranklin Hoyt and
Jasper Hazen, who were sole directors
of the movement, that it was such a suc
cess. The proceeds, some $14 or $15, is
to go to astist in building the proposed
evangelical church at this place, first
on the programme was an opening
chorus, followed by a recitation by Lena
Wilson, which was rendered well. The
recitations by Misses Musette Grewell.
Mae Slavens, Maude Wilson and Master
Clyde urawell were all that could be de
aired. The vocal duet by Mr. and Mrs.
AUard was well received. Mrs. AUard
possesses a remarkable alto voice, which
she uses to good advantage. A pathetic
song, llie Living tneineer," rendered
by Maude and Mae Wilson and Katie
liaker was worthy of an encore. Miss
Lillian Larson captivated the audience
oy ner vocal solo and ber instrumental
selection was a masterpiece of work.
She chose as her selection Ben Hur's
Chariot Race, a piece by no means an
easy one. Mrs. Hoyt's vocal solo, "The
Jiam m me mill, anu ner recitation,
were both very clever bit of work. The
tableau, representing "Love. Courtshio
and Marriage," by Misses Olive and
Musette Grewell and Mr. Floyd Puzey.
would have been second to none on the
programme had there been red fire used
but as it was, the audience appreciated
the effort. The vocal solo, ''The best
little girl in the wide, wide world," was
creditably rendered by Mrs. J. F. Down
ing. The nigger sketch was good, each
part being well carried out. The min
strel first part was also extra gold, the
circle being com posed of nine boys 111
neat uniforms, with Frankie Hoyt and
Vin Grewell on one end and Janper Ha
zen and Louis Puzey on the other end,
while Carson Harms carried out the
middle man's part in a creditable man
ner. The jokes and songs were new and
catchy and the audience was not slow in
responding. Louis Puzey made the hit
of the first part by his original joke on
one of the end men, which seeuied to
strike the audience as being remarkably
funny. An elegant lunch was served
after the programme had been concluded,
after which dancing was indulged in.
The verdict of the people as they left
the hall was to the effect that they had
witnessed a first-class entertainment.
