Manv of us will readily re call to mind a statement Mr. Frake made alx year ago. when he wa first elected to office, that it would require about eight year to pay off the County debt, and we can reasonably presume mat gentleman determined to demon strate the correctness of hi theory. It 1 nearly a foregone conclusion that the County debt will amount to but very little in another two year unless cir cumstances arise over which there would be no human control. The future will very likely bring forth no startling event in County matter for at least two year. BIO FinfS IN KAINIEK. Much of tbe Dwalness Portion of the Town la Destroyed. Rainier' celebration of the Fourth of July just past terminated very disas trously, two large business, Dlocks are laid in ashes and tbe small amount of good saved from three merchandise stores is piled promiscuously about the street. The fire started in the Delta block, destroying it entirely. In the block was the general merchandise store of W. J. Deitz, a butcher shop, bakery, restaurant, saloon and one or two other mall business establishment. The fire spread sooth to the Newsome build ing, in which was John Morgus' general merchandise store, Kistner' grocery store, Clark's confectionery store and postoffice. In fact, all the building along the river front from tbe north end of tbe Diets block, to Silver' saloon. The tire started some time in the after part of the night. Overhead in the belts building wa the lodge room of the Knights of Pythias, in which wa held meetings of one 01 two other societies. Fixing Cback Holes In Koads. A number of road in thi County would be in a fairly good condition at the prevent time if some provision had been made to fix small chuck holes from time to time, but as it is these have been neglected and allowed to become larger and larger until the road become impassible at these points. Where a load of gravel would have fixed several of the chuck holes if they bad been at tended to at the proper timo, it will take several load now to fill them, which means, of course, additional expense. In building Connty road it i poor economy after fixing them to let them run down. Now that road enpervisor have been elected in fifteen district, perhaps it will be easier to attend to fixing road when they need only a little work on them from time to time to keep them in good condition. Thi ia a matter which the County offi cials should consider with a view of having it looked after in future, for it is false economy and a detriment to good road to spend money upon them and not make the proper provision to keep them in repair. WASTED THINGS. "There Is being so much said In the country- aixiut hard time and the scarcity of money, and a everybody ha a cause and know a remedy, I uiuuKtu 1 wouiu write to toil your read ers what I think of the canso," lay a writer in the Ainericus Times, who seems to be familiar with the waste. "We buy more than we produce. Ther I too much flour and bacon shipped here every year. .The thing w ought to make at home w are buying. We let our timber rot and buy our plow stocks, single-tree, axe-handles, boe hiuidlo and fencing. We throw away our ashe and buy soap and axle-grease. We give away our beef hides and buy hame-strlngs and shoe-laces. We waste our manure and buy guano. We buy f;ardon seed in the Spring and cabbage 11 the Winter. We let our lands arrow Up In weeds and buy brooms. We waste the wax out of our pine and sum trees and buy chewing gum for our children. We build achoolhnusea and hire teachers and send our children off to lis educated. W land a 6-centflsh with a 4-dollar rod. We aend a 15-cent boy out with a 20-dollar gun and 4-dollar doir to kill birds. We raise dogs and buy wool. And about the only things in this country that there is an over-production . 01 are politic and dog tick." While the above la written in a some' what humorous vein, it contain manv solid fact that it would be largely to the betterment of the people of this country If they would heed and seek to remedy.

Ig norance of thi fact accounts for poor bread oftener than an Inferior quality of flour. Articles of food that are made of gelatine or milk should always be kept covered, as both milk and gelatine are literal scavenger 01 tne air and awtoro not only odors, but eerms. Neither cheese, cabbage, fish nor baked beans should ever be put into the refrigerator. They leave an odor which it is difficult to rid the refrigerator of, and they also flavor the food. It I said that if you bore a quarter- inch hole into the heart of a fruit tree or any kind of a tree that is infested with insects, and fill the bole with dry sulphur and plug it up, it will cure blight, make the tree strong and healthy, and in no way injure it. This i a val uable boon to fruitgrowers, a it goes clear through all parts of the tree, being absorbed from the heart, and makes a good healthy color. IS IT RIGHT Dead Baa In Lake Connty. A wagon ha been discovered in Albeit J.ke, a large body of water, sit uated about forty miles north from Lakeview in Lake connty, Oregon. The wagon i near the eastern shore, In about twenty feet of water, and just under the runrock. It is supposed to have been there for twenty years or more, but how It got there nobody know. It i difficult to reach that lo cality a the trail to tlio desert lies on the opposite side of the lake. This lake is a remarkable one. It is another dead sea. It Is about twenty mile long, from one to ten mile wide, and from one to seventy-five feet deep. It 1 fed by number of springs and mall stream and creeks, and the Che waucan river, but it ha no outlet. Its rise and fall ia scarcely perceptible, and its water ate so heavily impregnated with alkali that no animal can drink or live in it. At the mouth of the small streams that flow Into it hundreds of dead fish are found that have drifted into it waters and died. At the mouth of the Chewaucan river tons of fish can be found, and tbe shore are composed of fish bones. - Duck and geese only approach ita waters at the mouth of fresh water streams, and no living animal is ever found on or in the body of the lake proper. ' Stamp Book Failure. It la announced that the postal author ities at Washington have discovered that the paraflue paper used for the now postage stamp books will not perform the work expected of it. This paper prevent adhesion only for a short time, probably for a week, and appear to lose Its effect entirely, and the tamp be come glued to the page a though no preparation wa employed to prevent adhesion. Steps are to be taken at once to remedy it. It has been given out that no more books will be issued with paraflne leavon, and that a certain kind of oil naner is to be used in it stead, which, It ia thought, will prevent adhesion.

It may be question whether the editor of a newspaper baa the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicine wnicn uood tne market, yet as a preventive of suffering we feel it a duty to say a good word for Chamberlain' , Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known and used thi medicine in our family for twenty year and always found it relia ble. In manv cases a does of this rem edy would save hours of suffering while a physician is awaited. We do not be lieve in depending implicitly on any medicine fur a cure, but we do believe that if a bottle of Chamberlain's Diar rhoea Remedy were kept on hand and Administered at the inception of an attack much suffering might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of a physician would not be required. At least thi ha been our experience dur ing the past twenty years. For sale at the St. Helen Pharmacy. Dashed to Death. A frightful accidont occurred on a street car line in Tacoma on the morn ing of July 4th. A car laden with a precious cargo of nearly 100 persons, jumped the track on a trestle sixty feet high, instantly killing thirty-six people and frightfully injuring over eixty others. It ia said that the car operators were careless in their work, and were running the car at a terriflo rate of speed. An Epldemlo of Diarrhoea. Mr. A. Sanders," writing from Cocoa nut Grove.

From that year the pack in creased rapidly until 1877. when it fell off 100.000 cases. The record-breakinr year was 1883, when 629,400 case wer placed on the market. Six year latet the pack fell to H09.000 case, but recov ered in 181)5 to 617,000 case. In 18Wi a drop to 4(13,777 wa recorded, and in 18W) to 800,000. Thi year the pack, will b about . the same aa last, Although there is a good month coming, during wnicn tfie dencit may ne made up. A man from Astoria declares that the fishermen are becoming discouraged and are complaining at the small run. Last year tbe run wa light, but it wa ex' plained away by the assertion that it was an off year. Thi season differ ent view of the situation is apparent. and the unpleasant fact Is asserting Itself that the salmon are on the de cline. At the next session of the leg! lature, Fish Commissioner Reed will make a few recommendations-in tbe in terest of the preservation of the fishing industry. lie believe that the best Interest can be served by shortening tne nsning season in tne uoiumoia. The season is now from April 16 to Aug ust 10, practically four months. Com missioner Reed says the season should not continue more than two and one half months at the longest. He be lieves that men in tbo business should decide what montha should be selected, whether the first or last of the season. They could fish from April to tbe middle of June, or else from June IS to August. liy deciding upon tne latter montns. the spring run would be protected and vice versa. Under such an arrange ment there would always be some of the June fish saved. Cannerymen have declared that the salmon are arriving later with each succeeding year. Under existing conditions the hatch eries are getting next to no eggs at all from the June nsh. The river is so full of gear that it I next to impossible for a fish to get through aa far as the hatch eries. The amount of gear in the river cannot be restricted, however, nor can any particular kind be favored, for obvious reasons. There is considerable talk to the ef fect that more hatcheries should be built. Constructing hatcheries would be a needless expenditure of the State's money when no eggs can be secured for propagation. If part of the June run can be saved for the hatcheries through mean of the two and one-half month' season, then some benefit would accrue. The fish, say CommiSHioner Reed. can be held at their present stage if proper measures are taken for a few years. If no Ugh were caught for a half a dozen years, the salmon would then be plentiful enough ; but this suggestion ia not practical for the reason that if the proposition wa carried out the business would be dead, and a large lose result. A mild restriction and sensible protec tion would enable tne cannera to keep their brand upon the market and re main in the business until the run be came heavy enough to warrant an abolition of the more stringent safeguards. fishermen were formerly able to earn enough during tbe season to live with out labor during the rest of the year. They took tripa to San Francisco or other place and enjoyed themeelve. now things nave changed, ana tne fisher folk find it necessary to work during the month when fishing 1 pro- I11DIHKI. leicgram.
