In this issue of Tbc Mist will be found a detailed report of the deliberations of the Columbia county republican conven tion held at Rainier on Monday last. The ticket put forth is the result of the determination of the delegates after much canvassing of the situation, the sentiment being uppermost to put up a good ticket. The especial fitness of the candidates and their worth as public servants was the dominant object in view when the convention proceeded to business, and the result is a good, clean ticket that any republican can earnestly, honestly and cordially support, besides, it will be supported by many persons who have heretofore held opposite po litical opinions who are no longer wed ded to the peculiar methods of modern local democracy, populism and fusion. Of course, there were disappointments, as there must certainly be in such bodies, but the disappointed ones and their friends realize that someone bad to be left out. They are not disgruntled, however, and will put their shoulders to the wheel and assist in swelling the enormous majority that is in store tor the ticket. There is something more behind the ticket than the mere person ality of the candidates or individuals of whom it is composed. These men were not nominated altogether because they are capable and deserving, but because they are republicans, and Btand for the interests ot tbe party and the promulga tion of it principles. Tbe politics of tbe county officers is important to the public in their bearing upon more im portant places. Success in little things means success in greater things, and a vote for one person on the ticket means also a vote to strengthen the legislative ticket, which, at this time, is of vital importance to Columbia county. We have for United States senator the name of a fellow countyman, whose re-election we are decidedly interested in, besides due regard for onr interests by the re election of Congressman Moody. The ticket should be supported and elected for several reasons: It is clean and competent; it ia republican and stands for tbe principles of republicanism ; it waa the will of tbe majority that the several men on the ticket be nominated for the respective place ; and, because it is the result of concerted effort on the part of people opposed to the tearing down of good government by the degra dation of our monetary system with all its consequent disaster. Tbe struggle has been a bard one, but populism, with all its dogmas and fanaticisms has been discredited and completely beaten down in our midst, and the decision of our people at the polls will be that republi can rule is good enough. The conven tion has done its work well and the people of the county will set the seal of their approval upon it on tbe 4th day of next June. Had it been within our province to select the entire ticket we would have made but few changes. Our personal desire for the success of one or two friends may have prompted us to do otherwise than did the convention, but at the same time we cannot all view such matters in the same light, and we are always willing to abide the decision of the majority and those put there to speak for ns. Again we cay the ticket ia a good one and will be elected. At the republican county convention for Wahkiakum county, Wash., held last week, the only resolution passed by that body was one favoring the election of United States senators by the direct vote of the people. To accomplish this reform in our laws will require an amendment to the United States con stitution. Such an amendment can be submitted to the people by two-thirds of both houses of congress or an application of the legislatures of two-thirds of the several states. It is hardly to be expected that the United States senate as at pres ent constituted will favor any such change the only hope of the people being to demand recognition through the leg islatures of the different states. Is stirring political times it is not wise to get overheated. A man gains nothing for bis candidate, friends or party by unnecessarily exciting the op position in urelept gabble. It has but a tendency to make the enemy work all the harder, and while hurting the pros pects of friends who are aspirants to office, engenders ill feeling that in some instances never wears away. There is more profit in calmly discussing contro versial points thau by bellowing at each other, and in imagining that the very life of tbe nation depends upon getting the better of the other fellow in an ar gument over political questions. It is not alone in mercantile and in dustrial lines of business that labor has been more amply rewarded and capital lias received better returns from its in vestments since the arrival of the pros perous period inaugurated by tbe return to republican administration of na tional affairs. While the laborer has found emplovment, which was denied him in the days of democratic depres sion, and has had his wages gradually and perceptibly increased, the farmer has also been receiving his share of the general prosperity. Thk republicans in their convention on Monday selected a set of candidates who can go before the people with clean records, and against whom no com plaints can be uttered. With such a ticket suceeas is assured for the republi cans in June in this county. Ano now there ro heart in (rloom in the Drat congressional district. Mr. Tongue was re-nominated on the first hallot at the McMinnville convention on Tuesday. He received 101 votes, ten more tl'ian were necessary for choice. The combined opposition developed little strengt h, mounting to but 02 votes, of which Hatch, of Marlon, re ceived the greatest number of any one of Tongue e opponenie. i-oiuicri aspir ations of the onnosin candidates are shattered to frnmiienttf. ami the Ikjvs will return to their homes weaker but wiser, and fully satisfied of the truth fulness of the saving that tnere are "ways that are dark and tricks that are vain." Mr. Tongue wilt lie re-elected. That Pettigrew, once the idol of South Dakota republicans, is now the most despised man in the state, is shown by the action of the republican connty con vention at Watertown in adopting a resolution denouncing him as "an advo cate f treason and a traitor to his gov ernment and to his state." Thus are the mighty fallen. It is safe to predict that IVttigrew will not receive the vote of one patriot in South Ihikota in the coming election. Pioneer l'resa. Geo nog M. Cornwall, who, for eleven years past has had editorial charge of the lathiamet uaxette, a nreezy mue paper which has taken up and contin ued the work of Pacific's zephyrs in wafting current eventt to every nook and corner along the Columbia, last week disposed of his interests in the paper to Mr. A. C. Miller. We predict success for Mr. Miller and continued prosperity for the Uazette. Tire farmers of Oregon will this year obtain not less than five million dollars from the sale of sheep and wool. The sheep industry of the state ia now almost as much of a factor as wheat is in supporting the people of Oregon. If wheat should continue low in price and wool remain high it will not be long until the sales of sheep and wool will bring more money into the slate than the sales of wheat. W. P. Elv has aeain taken editorial charge of tbe Kelso Journal. Ely has bad a rest from newspaper drudgery for nearlv two vears and should be able to enter again upon the many duties with new zeal and vigor. Columbia county voters are a little more energetic in "registering, the rush having already begun. Tie well. THESE WB WILL VOTE FOR. Besides Usual Officers, Five Amend ments to Constitution. In addition to the regular election for county, district and state officers to be voted for at the approaching election, there are also the following constitu tional amendments to be voted on : Municipal indebtedness amendment; judicial amendment; irrigation amend ment; repealing amendment; and an amendment for equal suffrage. "Of these propositions ttie first abro gates the present section of the state constitution, which provides that no county shall incur an indebtedness exceeding in the aggregate sum of $5000, and in its stead proposes to substitute a section that shall exteifd the limit of indebtedness to cities, school districts and other municipal corporations, 3 well as counties, ao that their aggregate indebtedness shall not exceed 5 per cent of the taxable property therein. "At present there are throe justices of tbe supreme court. If passed, the judi ciary amendments will increase this number to five. "The irrigation amendmendment is an innovation and that passage will add another article to the state constitution. The constitution of 1857 contained eight articles which have been preserved. If it receive the sanction ot the voters, tbe irrigation amendment will be known as article XIX, and under its terms the necessary use of lands for the construc tion of reservoirs for purposes of irriga tion, and for the construction of ditches and flumes to carry water for the devel opment of natural resources or the preservation of health, is declared to be a public use and subject to the control of the state. The right to appropriate from any natural stream, unappropri ated waters, and shall not be denied. The use of waters now appropriated is declared to be a public use as above, subject to certain regulations. The right to collect compensation for use of water is made a franchise. "Section 35 of Article 1 of the state constitution provides that no negro, not living here at the time of its adoption, should ever hold land or be allowed to make contracts or maintain suits in the courts. Upon the passage of the Four teenth amendment to the federal con stitution this section becomes a dead letter, and tbe 'Repealing Amendment' seeks to efface it from the organic law of the state. "In voting on tbe question of the 'Equal Suffrage Amendment' tbe ques tion to be determined is whether or not tbe constitution shall be amended as follows: "Article 1. The elective franchise in this state shall not hereafter be prohibi ted to any citizen on account of sex. "Article 1 of the constitution contains thirty-five sections but the joint resolu tions as adopted proposing the amend ment does not state which particular one it is desired to amend." Cnrtls on tbe Kopje. As nearly as we can learn from the latest heliogranis, Commandant Curtis has reconnoitered in force and occupied the Clatsop county kopje as a prelimi nary to a general movement, horse, foot and baggage, agaisnt the enemy, which he will soon lead in person. In the meantime Commandant Fulton is pursu ing his customary policy, throwing np intrenchments, laying in vast stores of ammunition and encouraging his troops to daily devotions. Tbe signs of a fear ful and sanguinary conflict between tbe erstwhile Damon and Pythias of Clatsop republicanism causes the moon to ap pear crimson-hued whenever it shows itself. Astoria Budget. Millions Given Away. It is certainly gratifying to the public to know of one concern that is not afraid to ha generous. The proprietors of Dr. King's New Discovery lor Con sumption, Coughs and colds, nave given away over ten million trial bottles, and have the satisfaction of knowing it has cured thousands of hopeless cases. Asthma, bronchitis, lagnppe and all throat, chest and lung diseases are surely cured by it. Call at the St. Hel ena Pharmacy and get a free trial bottle. Regular size oUc and ll.uu. livery oottie guaranteed. Tbe Best In the World. We believe Chamberlain's Cough Remedy ib the best in the world. A few weeks ago we suffered with a severe cold, and having' read their advertise ments in our own and other papers, we purchased a bottle to see it it would effect us. It cured us before the bottle was more than half used. It is tbe best medicine out for colds and coughs. The Herald. Andereonville Ind. For sale at the St. Helens Pharmacy, COUNTY SCHOOL FUNDS. Amow.nl on Hand Apportioned to the Heveral Districts. The county school superintendent has apportioned the county school money on hand on the first Monday in April to the several districts as is shown by the following table. The amount appor tioned to the districts are proportion ately less than in former yenrs, owing to the tact that the levy for school purposes is one-half of r mill less this year, be sides there was less saloon license money received this year than formerly. The number of the district appears first, the name of the school clerk secondly, the number of children snd the amount due: 1 W.T. Watts il 243 10 5 K. E. Quick 72 202 0 8 J.

Joint districts receive from this county only part of too $50 -each county in which the district lies pays in propor tion to the Dumber of children in each. As the above, $7449.02, includes all the 5-mill county school tax, there will probably be no more money to apportion before October. However, should there be money in the treasury on the first Monday in July next, it will be appor tioned among the districts. I. H. CoPELAXD, County School Superintendent " Bryan's Record. The personality and record of Bryan will be platform enough to procure his defeat at the bands of the industrial and commercial forces of the country, which are the potential forces of popular self-interest in politics. These forces may be divided on the question of the personal worth or weakness of President McKinley, bnt will lie a unit in the con clusion that it would be supreme folly at a time of unexampled national pros perity to place the administration of the national government in the hands of a party whose engineers are a piebald collection of political cranks and charla tans, whoee finance is equipped with the brains of folly and the soul of fraud ; whose statesmanship would in anarchy soon survey its national empire and be hold its ultimate home. The stars in the courses have fought against Bryan and his faction since 1896, and he will probably be beaten to a pulp next No vember, because the prosperity of the country has utterly discredited him as a political prophet aud stigmatized him as nothing but a vociferous quack and a tireless political tramp.

By the irony of fate and the exigen cies of personal ambition, it became tbe duty of the Hon. Joseph C.Blackburn to pronounce tbe funeral oration at the coffin of William Goebel. And of Goe bel, Senator Blackburn said : "Build here over bis grave a mighty towering granite shaft that shall defy the corroding touch of time. Inscribe upon it an epitaph that shall be worthy of the man. He earned this at bands. In life and death he was consecrated to the people's cause. He lived an honest life, and gave his life for your deliverance.- Of him no eulogy buttrnth may say: "Earth never pillowed upon her bosom a truer son, nor heaven opened wide ber portals to receive a manlier spirit." At Covington, on Sunday, April 14, a little less than five years ago the eulogist of Goebel pronounced another funeral oration. That time he ktood by the colli n of Col. John L. Sanford, who, like Goebel, had been shot in the high way. And of Sanford, Senator Black burn said : "John Sanford was to me like a brother. I loved him. I hope God may pare me, and I shall make it my life's mission to avengo him by burying his slayer in the depths of merited public execration." The slayer of John Sanford was Wil lam Goebel.
