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. Many thlnirs are hrousrlit
Into Orearon that it reauirea cood money
to buy. After they are here we have
them ; but our money is rone: and when
money cease to circulate in a State or
community tnen begin a cramp In bus

to make almost anything needed, and

State needs factories that will take thi
raw material and make it Into thlnes
needed at home. And the day will
come when this will be done, and then
win we nave continued belter time.

Flour should not be kept in a store

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

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.

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.

It la announced that the postal author

to remedy it. It has been given out
that no more books will be issued with

For an Editor to Recommend Fat-
eat Medicines?
from Sylvan Valley News, Brovrad, N. C.
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

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.

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.
