The advent of the use of tho bont will save fisher men much time and labor, as tbe fish will be picked up along the river instead of the fishermen being required to bring them to this city. Mr. M. Collins, who hss charge ol the Honeyinan farm, near tscappoose, waa In town Wednesday morning. Mr. Collins say that a great amount of very valuable improving ha been done in the past year by the furmer of Bcap pooso. On the Honeyuian place about twenty-five acrea of ground has been niade ready for the plow this year, this being one of numerous such improve ments in that vicinity this year. A very severe and painful accident happened here last Friday to one of the deckhands of the steamer Kellogg John Oibson, by name. The steamer wa landing, when Oibson attempted to pass the line between two piling. His arm was in Just the proper place to be crushed should the steamer strike the piling, which It did; the result being easily imagined. Dr. ltosa was sum moned and rendered such relief as would permit of the sufferer continuing on to Portland to the hospital. The arm waa frightfully crushed. Registration throughout the county are being made more liberally of late. However, there are many voters who have not yet complied with the law. On Tuesday evening the registration books at the clerk's office showed that 880 voters had registered, which number Is about two-thirds of the voters in this county. Many are waiting, and some say they will not register, but aa inter est In the -election becomes greater, so will the desire to vole increase and those who aro now hanging fire will hie themsolves off to the registration officer. There ia less than five weeks time re maining in which to comply with the law, so do not defer the matter too long. PIONEER RESIDENT OONB. LaOrlpue Hie Cause of the Death . .of 11. B.

Attention of the voters of Columbia county Is called to the necessity of reg istration at once unless thev desire to be disiranchisea at the coming election. The time for registration expires within lorty days, ana numiroa ol legal voters aro not yet on the rolls. If everybody waits to reitister uutil the last my the clerks will be so rushed that it will lie impossible to properly attood to all the applications and much confusion and trouole at tne polls la bound to be the result, business men should determine a certain day to discharge the duty they owe the country and determine that of rcKlslration, ana then not overlook tbe date and time. A deed was filed for record In the county clerk's olQce this week conveying to John Stewart anil 11. t . rowers the title to 4itU acres of timber land near Marshland, formerly owned by A. U. Woodward and wife, for a consideration of IH000. The timber was cruised and estimated at 10,500,1)00 feet. A transac tion o( this nature plainly demonstrates the true worth of Columbia county tim ber land. Of courso, this particular fiieceof timber is easily accessible, and or that reason commanded a higher fig ure in the market than timber located away from the river. However, timber iu future will command better prices. On tbe instrument conveying the title to the land in question were documentary stamps to the amount of )8. Fishermen are exceedingly slow In taking out their licensee for the coming season. Although Uie opening of the sesson ii close at baud, few licenses were .sued at the coinuiiMMoner'a olitce in Astoria last week. Two applications were mode but it was found that the applicants were not cituens 01 tne uiled SUtcs, and permits were there fore refused. There ia no question that the delay in taking out licenses is due chiefly to tho fact that many of those who intend to fish during the coming reason have not yet arrived from the various points in the Kortiiwetst, Where they have been engaging them selves during the closed season. But Whether the excuses are good or not Hhere will be many who will be materi ally delayed because ol deterring the taking out of licensee when they are otherwise prepared to start out because of the great rush that will necessarily follow when all will endeavor to secure licenie at once. 80 far as can be ascer tained there la no disposition on the part of the fishermen to resist the pay ment of license fee as required by law. although very few of them have tiled their applications thus (ar. The delay in thia matter will, no doubt, be the cause of inconvenience and trouble when tbe season oitens. The commis sioner announces that no licenses will be issued this year except at the olHce and anyone caaght fishing without securing a license will be prosecuted and the net confiscated. At a meeting o( the fishermen held in Astoria Tuesday It was decided to ask 0 cents (or fish this season, which price will probably prevail. Examination Programme.

The fusion gathering for the selection of delegates was very sllmly attended the came alternoon as the republican gathering, and we understand, no nomi nation lor precinct oillcer was made by loose present.

The number necessary was secured with the assistance of Mrs. C. L. Conyers, who worked very Indus triously toward the same object. A masked skating carnival wa an nounced for last Friday evening at the new hall, but for some reason, largely on account 01 the entertainment that was to follow the next evening, the at tendance wa not very large and the carnival could scarcely bo termed a success. The city election on Monday brought out an unusally large vote, and awak ened an interest not usual at our annual election of officers. It was the old storv of the man not caring for the office, but urn wauling to ue Deaien, anu 11 me candidate did not work themselves, others did for them, with an energy that would do credit to an election for United Htates senator. The following persona were selected for the positions named : President of the council. S. O. Tichenor; councilmen, W. E. Conyers, A. t. Myers, Ueorge U. Tichenor. Irank Merrill : recorder. J. E. Hall : marshal. A. Eagle. The public school entertainment at Convers' ball last Saturday evening attracted a crowd that filled the room entirely. A most Interesting pro gramme bad been prepared and in ren dering it the schools surprised and de lighted their mends with the successlul manner in which they performed their parts. Some very meritorious perform ances deserve special mention, but aa it would lie difficult to draw a line and as apace is too' limited to mention all who took part, it is beat to sav, all did well, and let it go at that. The entertain ment aa a whole, was one of the 6 nest ever bold hero, reflecting credit on the teachers for trouble and time In prepara tion, and on the scholars for skill and the interest taken in having the parts well rendered. The republican primaries did not attract a very large crowd Saturday afternoon, but it was a good natured one', and after waiting what seemed a sufficient lenth of time, the precinct chairman, W. II. Conyers, called the meeting to order and announced the business in hand. Pr. Hall was se lected aa chairman and F. C. Whitten as secretary. The following named per sons were placed in nomination for the position named: uonelaoie, Angus McOillvary; justice of the peace. A.J. ( rwig. IWogates to tbe county conven tion, N, Merrill. E. B.

The primaries of the republican party of Columbia county have been held In all the precincts and the delegate to the republican convention to be held next Monday at Kaiuier have been chosen by the voters. Thia being the case, it is now not out of order for us to state publicly tbe name ol those whom we nave heard mentioned lor omce. We merely state existing conditions. and any statement contained herein is not intended to influence the conven tion in the leastwise for or against any person. The convention and the people will seek to know from what material the republican ticket will be composed, and for this reason the names herein mentioned are so done in ordor that all will be fairly and equally treated. The convention will do tne nominating. This being the year for Columbia county to have the Joint senator, accord ing to the rule of passing that office around, we have candidates for that place. Who shall have that office is to be determined at the state conven tion, the candidates will look after their chances by endeavoring to have such persons sent to the state convention as wilt favor their candidacy. Those whose names we. have beard mentioned for that place are Attorney W. W. Conyers. of Clatskanie, and Mr. W. D. Connell, of Deer Island, (i. O. Mayger, of Port land also would accept such nomination. It is considered necessary for any candi date from this county to have the en dorsement of hi delegation. For the office of representative those prominently mentioned are Dr. 11. R. Cliff, of St. Helens, and Mr. Norman Merrill, of Clatskanie. Each of these gentlemen residing in either extremity of the county, will undoubtedly go into the convention with support about equally divided. Each of these gentle men have tbe delegations from their own precinct, but we believe which ever one of them receives the nomination will be loyally supported by the other. Besides these gentlemen, the names of Mr. T. C. WatU, of Reuben, and Mr. A. B. Little, of Houlton, have been associated with the office of represen tative, as has also that 01 the present incumbent, Dr. Hall, of ClaUkanie. It is scarcely worth while to devote space to tbe candidate for county judge. The present incumbent. Judge Poan, has no opposition, and 111s nomination win undoubtedly be made by acclama tion. His conduct of public alliairs for the past four years baa earned him that favor in the eyes of the public. Mr. J. u. watts, the present county clerk, so far as we can learn, has made an efficient, obliging officer and it seem to be the will ol his party to renominate him for the office he now holds. For sheriff several names have been mentioned. Mr. A. L. Clark, of Rain ier, was at one time a candidate for that place, but whether he still expects avor from the convention we are un able to state. Tbe name of Mr. Geo. W. Barnes, of Ouincy. has also been mentioned. The name of Casper Libel. of Mist, baa been mentioned as a possi ble candidate lor aherin. 1 lie name oi the pesent assessor, Mr. Martin White, is prominently associated with others who will receive consideration at the hands of the convention for that place. For assessor, besides the name ol the present incumbent, we have heard men tioned the names of T. H. Woodruff, of Rainier, R. H. Bailey, of Houlton, A. T. Laws, of Peer Island, O. W. Barnes, of Quiney. There appears to be no opposition to Dr. Ross' re-nomination for treasurer. He will most likely be re-nominated by acclamation. For Bchool superintendent, besides the name of the present incumbent, we have heard mentioned the names 01 Prof. F. C. Whitten, of Clatskanie, and Prof. P. C. Allard, of Warren. As Nehalera people claim the office of commissioner, we have heard no name mentioned for that place other than Nehalem gentlemen, among them being W. P. Case, of Pittsburg. C. W. Mel- linger, of Vernonia, and J. A. Van, of Fish hawk. For survevor, we have beard the names of A. B. Little, of Houlton, and Aimer Meaerve, of Helena. Dr. M. K. Hall, ol Kainier. is the only person we have heard mentioned as a possible candidate tor coroner. Spreads Like Wildfire. When things are "the best" they become "the best selling."
