being one of numerous such improve

A very severe and painful accident
happened here last Friday to one of the

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.

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.

The public school entertainment at
Convers' ball last Saturday evening
attracted a crowd that filled the room
entirely. A most Interesting pro

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

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

CANDIDATES FOR OFFICB.
Material Out of Which Itepnbli
cane Will Make a Ticket.
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.

We
believe Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the best in the world. A
few weeks ago we suilered with a severe
cold, and having rend their advertise
ments In our own and other papers, we
purchased a bottle to see if it would
effect ua. It cured us before the bottle
was more than half used. It is the
best medicine out for colds and coughs.
