Burglar are playing high jink at different point in the County. At flcanpooae on Thuriday night of laat week Watt 4 Price' store wa entered and a number of article, besidr- about (16 in cash wa taken. At Rainier on Monday night John Morgua' store waa burglarized to the extent of about (100, principally ahoea. Bo far no clue to the perpetrator haa been found. The public chool of this ity obaorved Memorial Day by attending in a body, the decoration ol the grave of Mr. John uuinni, at the Germany Hill Cemetery. Mr. Uuiutn, at hi death, left an endow ment of several hundred dollars to tht achool, and the kindly remenibrace by the achool children wa but a fit token of respect. The grave of a number of veteran toldlera were also decorated. The city council of fit. Helen ha very wialy lft a contract to have the atreet Improved, and the work ha already started. Al Robinson, Mitchell' Kay and Jack McKio took tlie contract to put crushed rock on 1400 feet of the main streets, from ltart& aluckle' atore to the new Mathodiat church. The ccntract price i 78 cents per yard. The alack i to be placed on the itreet to a width of eight feet, W inches deep in the center and tapering to (2) inches on the edges, and when the work i com pleted we believe it will be taating. It will be a great improvement and will add very materially, to the appearance of tho city and pleasure of the citisens and viator. The property owner could well afford to have the material placed , from the ilduwalk'( edge to join the work already done. It doe eera itrange that If Dave Davl i o exhorbitant In hi charge (or print ing that aherUr Rice would occasionally patronise thia ortioe with his order for atatjonery. Of course, Sheriff Rice know he ha to pay no more Wire than any place elae, and when the order it left it will be quickly and neatly execu ted. So far ae Mitchell duplicating our work at lea cost i concerned, he could not duplicate anything unles It were a mud fence. The work he turn out of hi office ia a disgrace to the art and would make the bonea of the founder Gutenberg, rattle in their grave to know that their owner' art had gotten into auch bad hand. Of course fourth-claa work can be done at fourth-claa price, but business men prefer to have stat ionary which would not diagraee them and tneir business.

Mr. Allen' election ia an assured thing, by a very large majority, which would be only just recognition of his qualifications and fitness for the office to which he aspires. After as suming his office every duty will be ably discharged and the State's interest have never bad better care than Mr. Allen will administer, and he will be a terror to criminal. Buainea Interests, where law points are involved, of each County in the Fifth District, will also be In competent hands, Mr. Allen being lawyer of ability far above the average. We heartily invite the suffrage of the people in Mr. Allen, behalf. v:, yv . YANKTON ITEMS. A Who aaid Yankton la in the back . woodT Eben Brown is at home from the camp for a month' vacation. W. L.

To tux Eorroa or Tux Mist: Will you please publish ,fn your valuable paper the enclosed communication? think it onlr fair the voters of the County should know the true facts I wiah the voter of thi County to know what sort of a person is he who asks their votes for him a County Com inisaioner on the Populist ticket, and if you will kindly allow space in your Highly-valued paper lor this letter 1 think they will change their views somewhat. Mr. Peterson wa the leader of a party who had a small portion of the road district cut off (or hi own benefit, in order to have less road work to do. Now. thi ia not lust exactly what a good citizen should do especially if he intend to ask the people' vote for some County Office. But that Is only nurnner one. xne gentleman in ques tion piaved auite a nice little trick to get another piece of land close to the one he already had. It was not just in accordance with the law to do this, so in order to beat tbe law be made a sham sale to his brother-in-law and then filed on the land he wanted pre-emption. Alter proving no, he took ins tormer land back, as he intended to do from the tart. Now. candidly, voters, u this the kind of men you want to fill your public ottlcesr As far as i am concerned i don't think s man who would play trick like the above mentioned would make a very good County Commissioner. DEHALIM V OTBK. Mist, Or., May 25, 1800. i ' 1 i I, : A Holatetn Herd. Commissioner Frake. of Scanpoose, has just received from the well-know herd of Uolstein-Friesian cattle, owaf by Henry Steven A Son, La ConN, making the trip in live days, arriving in splendid shape. The youngster wa Bired by Manor UoKol, no. 21,220 tl. m. H. B. Hi grand dam is Nutherland Hengeroeld, with a butter record on official test by tbe Cornwall University, of New York, of 28.08 pound of butter in teven days, being the largest official butter record ever made by any cow of any breed. Hie great grand dam is De Kol 2nd, having the next highest offi cial butter record, being 26.57 pounds of butter in seven days, the average milk per day being 77 pound for seven days. His dam haa an official milk record of 318 pounds in seven days, and butter, UK pounds at two years old, and hi pedigree could be extended for ten gen eration, and would be about the same.

The calf cost Mr. F rakes (110.45 delivered at Scapnoose, making good stock pretty high, but as the dairy business will not pay unless good cow are had, the only way to get them ia to raise them. - With Columbia County having the best grass land in the State, there if no reason why good stock will not pay.

De- serve that Title... . t Ananias wa the greatest liar of which History or scripture give ny account, but there are others deserving of tbe same renown. So far a Mitchell ia concerned he ia to be pitted rather than uiarued. it' the nature ol the man and nature' designing is condition quite difficult to combat. Last week this man, Mitchell, stated In hi New that The Mist received (1200 for print In the tax list. Tux Mint never re ceived any such an amount for printing I!., 'Ik. t,r., ,.l . " ... ...... Ana i uwi . fi vi ID vVUMIiJ Clark's office, if anyone will take the ffYiIihlu frt ttvamlna thorn twill I a n . s w kuui" n ill UOIUVU' struts the degree of regard Mitchell haa for the truth. For printing the tax list oi ITO1BI mist received from (Jolum bia County a warrant for (173. The Mist printed the tax list of 1808, but Columbia County did not pay it one cent. While in the last eight year The Mist ha received (173 from Columbia County for printing tax lists, the New na received fiw.w. It received In 1800. (148: in 1897. (114.10: in 1808. (378.55; in 1809, (119.75. Aa to thi latter amount Mitchell also stated that he did the work for 175. when, in reality, he told a (44.76 lie, as the regis ter warrant in the County Clerk's office reauat "eept.o. mm. K. 11. Mitchell. printing delinquent tax list, warrant No. 6084, (119.76." We have (100 dollars cash for Mitchell if he can find a stroke of a pen upon the County records that wouiu disprove any statement made here. Mitchell wilt not search the rec ords, because there fact are demon strated, and that is a commodity in which he is not deal ng. He is a gen uine Populist, thriving on misrepresen tation and feasting on falsehood. Blind, tnrougn oesire, to tne trutn, and natur ally downright hypocritical, mingled with a good dear of cussedness and a whole lot of hcllery. THE COUNTY ASSESSOR. Retain the Present Kfflolent Valua tion Knamerator, For County Assessor, Martin White. Thi you will And opposite No. 40 on the official ballot, and for an efficient officer in that capacity Columbia County has never had hi equal and will never have one who is superior. The excellence of hi work i exceeded only by bis ability. gained through six years of experience, to do better and more thorough work in that capacity in the future. The - esaed valuation of all property in this County has gradually Increased during tne last six years, or since Mr. v rate has been assessor, from a few hundred thousand dollars to a million and half dollars, not altogether because Mr. White is tbe Assessor, but very largely to tne i act tnat ne naa made a deter mined effort to get every particle of property on the assessment roll that should, through justice, be there. His record for six years past ha already spoken so very highly for him that what we mignt say would be but ft reflex of what all voters know and proclaim. When you vote for White yon vote for a just and equitable assessment of all property in the County. VOTE THIS WAY. Mark Your Ballot According These Numbers. Tbe offllcal ballot are Drinted and de livered to many oi tne precinct along with the other election sunolics. When you go to the booth to mark your ballot look up these numbers and place an 'x" between tbe number on the left and the name behind It. They are all Re publicans and worthy your support: no. ia is Malcolm Moody, lor congress. No. 18 is Charles E. Wolverton. for Supreme Judge. m. IV is J. W. Ba lev. for Dairy and Food Commissioner. No. 22 is Harrison Allen, for District Attorney. , iso. 24 is lien r. Cornelius, tor Joint Senator. No. 27 i Norman Merrill for Repre sentative. No. 29 is J. B. Doan. for County Judge.

No. 40 i Martin White, for Assessor. No. 42 is I. H. Copeland. for School Superintendent. mo. 43 is A. B. Little, for County Sur veyor. These number extend only to tlie bottom of the District and County ticket, but in voting for precinct officers vote for the man who has "Republican" following his name. There are all sort of official handle attached to tbe op position candidates, but yon will notice the chsracterizeation of either Demo cratic. People Party, Populist or Fusion- tor-oince.
