Mr. Merrell re port a lively condition of buainesa affair In the vacinity of Clntskanie. especially is there great amount of teaaung being done there at present. Collin A Gray carry a large stock of general merchandise. If In need of any thing, call on them ; they will be glad to how you what they have and to quote you prices. They will buy anytliing tor you that they do not have in atock, and .also hip anytliing for you that they cannot use. A letter received from Mr. II. A. Oberg, from Grants Pas, states that he arrived at that place on the 20th of July with hi family. Mr. Oberg I not favorably Impressed with that part of tlie State, and sny we can expect to see him hack here at any time, a Columbia is the best County in Oregon.

While absent he will visit his former home in Kngland, take In the Paris Exposition and other points and places of In treat and return home about the middle of October, Owing to the Indiacerimlnate use of throngh Portland and Astoria reduced rate ticket by parties living at inter mediate station along the lino, the A. A C. R. R. Co. will place on sale at Portland and Astoria on August 8th, ticket to the point affected by the cheap rate, which will prohibit their use from any other station than the in- i itial point named on the ticket, and con ductor will have strict order to honor the ticket only from the point at which they are sold. If a man want to make atrip from Clatakanie or some other way station now, he will have to buy his ticket in the proper manner instead of asking some accommodating friend to bring it to him from Portland. There seems to be a temporary lull In timber land deals for the past fow days, eays the Oregonian, but thoso interested look for increased activity in a short time. A drought in the graingrowing districts of the East has put a damper on the demand for lumber, and the tim ber speculators of Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota are not so keen to buy timber land as they were. One man came out here from Dulutb a week ago to purchase 20,000 acres of timber land in a bodv, but he recieved a telegram order ing liim back about the time he had finished looking up the land. The deal would have amounted to $260,000, and a railroad into the belt would have cost tSO.OOO more. The anent here, however. has hope of consummating the trade later. CLiATHKAMIO ITKMIt. W. II. King, of Upper Clatakanie was In town Tuesday. Mis Lucia Oomin I a visitor this weulf iroiu Portland, W. H. Abel waa under the weather so lie coum not use his teuui, Tuesday, Borneo! our citizens went to Hcasido on an excursion Wednesday of this wecK. The city fountain la so far In the shape of a trough, but 1 lust a valuable to quuuuii thliHt. C. A. Hlmplo and family arrived last week from Nehalem and will make our city their home for the present. The Graham building I now painted and the scaObliling taken down. It is the uioat conspicuous building in town W. H. Whitton and wife of Newport, siient a few dava at the home of Prof. P. 0. Whltten in Mil city. They left the urm oi lie weux. Another city building for the protec tion of the hoae carriage and lire apiia- raiu oi uie city ia under construct on and now being roofed. An addition ia beinir built to to newlv- aujulred Page property which will give me lainuy more room ami add to tlio comfort and convenience of the building. Mr. J. V. Wendall and son, Clyde, and Mia Guasie Anderson, former resilient here, now of East Portland, spent a few day in our city recently. Tom Law I reported to have bought out Tom lleunett' interest und logging outfit at Nordby & Flippon'a and eM ail men charge of the busiuess. He will move his family from Dew Island in the near future. L. V, Maxwell and family have moved to room over Kratx'i (tore. Mr. Mc Keill, who seem to be Nackley's me ceaaor iu what is now called the Racket tore, expect to move his family into me nouse jiaxweu vacutea. The Artisan had a social Saturday evening which waa quite well attended. A literary and musical program wa followed by ice cream and cake and a few dollar realixud in that way may go Into the treasury of tlie order. Marquee Zimmerdalo got hi leg badly crushed under the leu which wa bauliiiK tlie don ko v engine at Hrigg'e ramp last week. He wa taken to the hospital at Portland and at last account it wa not clear whether the limb could be aved or not. ' A. E. Thoma wa out from the mill above Mist the first of tlie week, looking after lumber intereata. He roporte 17 teams at work Hauling between the mill and Clatakanie. and has about one-third of his mill production already on this side of the mountain. Mrs. Rosenberg came down from Port land Friday evening for a trip to Vesper. tiiie will pan her cottago some three mile out ol town wiier sue spent some year securing land on a homestead filing. The cottage is one of the land mark on the way to Mist. Nordby & Flippen are an enterprising lumber firm. A notice calling attention to ttieir lumber and prices written ill the Finn language i posted up outside the pontotllce. They are in business for all UBtionalties, and wide awake to all the possibilities ol the trade. James McDonald waa in Portland last Friday and called to see Zimmerdalo at tlie hospital. He found him cheerful and hopeful notwithstanding the un certainty about the fate of his leg. Jim consulted an ouculist about his own eye, injured about the 4tn ouuiy. lie got no encouragement about ever having a useful eye again. There is little sight left in that eye. J, J. Johnson was the victim of a pain ful but not very serious accident Tuesday of this week. In driving his empty wagon toward Mist for lumber the horses scared and started to run, giving him a lively ride for about half a mile. When he got pretty good control, one end of his bindinit pole struck the ground and the other new up, hitting him a tremendous i:l -i n. -j.. it. ; . . i ilea along ins siuu ami mp. ne is quite bruised and swollen in consequence. W. II. Kysor was one of the unfortu nates last week. While standing near a man who waa chopping, the exe came oir the handle and alruuk Kyaer so as to cut a gash across the back of hi hand, severing the tendons and bones, produc ing a very disabling and serious wound. Di'S. Hail, of Rainier and Clatakanie, were both summoned and put the hand in as good repair as possible, so if all goea a well a ex pocted ho may have a useful hand. A leas serious cut was re ceived in IiIb thigh at the same time. Quality as well a quanity counts when one buys good. Collin & Gray carry first-clans goods, and their price are reasonable. Rainier Kleotrlo Light Co. Salkm, Aug. 6. Articles of incorpora tion were tiled In the Secretary of State's olllce today by the Rainier Flume, & Electric Light Company, the intention being to utilize the waters of Fox Creek, in Columbia County, as a power for flutu ing wood, lumber nnd timbers, also as a source of domestic supply. Another object is to establish an electrio light and power plant at Rainier, where the principal office i to be. The capital stock is $3000, the incorporator being Dean Blanchard, 8. Benson. J. Silver, and W. L. Stacy. Examination Class. The School Superintendent is holding the quarterly examination for teachers in thi city thi week, fourteen appli cant being in attendance, a follow : MissEmily O. Brown, Portland ; Laura E. Foss, Gray's River, Wash.: Catherine J. Tracy, Clatakanie; Ida L. Morgan, Delena; Veda Lewis, University Park ; Zulla Lewis, University Park; Merle fShannahan, Vernonia; II. K. Shirk, Kist; 0. B. Wirtx, Braunsport; Mrs. I. H. Copeland, Honlton ; Misses Ollie Rice and Harriet Thayer, Rainier; Martha Green, Skamokawa, Wash. ; Mis Maude Bryant, Clatakanie. Oar Bicycle Path. It I very evident that ao fur a the cash will go it will be expended to excel lent advantage in constructing bicycle paths. Mr. 0. E. Whitney, in whoso hand the bicycle money wa placed for expenditure in this part of the County, i making judicious disposition of it, and what work ia accomplished will be of a first-class character and permanent in nature. Just about one mile of path will be completed, the entire distance being graded and coverod with crushed rock, then rolled and packed. From St. Helena to the Milton bridge cyclists can now depend on good going, over which distance has heretofore been the most difficult and tiresome wheeling. The one mile of path cost $50, but tlie work oould lie extended at much less cost per milo. A general effort, which should have the co-operation of the Scappoose and Warren cyclist, should be' put forth to extend the improvement to the County lino. The improvement would be of mutual benefit to business mennnd pleasure seekers, and the entire popula tion should co-opernte with the effort to open the way for cyclists from Portland to wheel to our city. no you knowt That the foot that rocks the cradle has no time to stop and kick for woman' right? That the official count of the United States centua will not be ready for the publio before December? That lightning played a curious prank with an Ohio man last week? It burned the image of a tree on hi side. . That the County Treasurer has a call thi week for all outstanding County Warrant endorsed prior to January 1st 1900?. , 1 That It is said there 1 a' man In this town who ate seven saucer of Ire-cream ? He must bo the man for whom the cows give milk. That the Portland Telegram unkindly remarks that "the preacher are nearly all away on their annual vacation, but the devil does business the year round, summer trie same a winter." That a book agent recently called on a fanner of thia County, nnd proponed to sell him an encyclopedia? The farmer replied "Saw, I don't want one ;my child ren are all girl and couldn't ride one." That crushed rock ha taken the place of gravel on thoroughfare of Yamhill, as it is thought to be more aervicable and conaiderably cheaper. The County owns it own crusher, and It cost about II. 2f per yard to put the rock on the roads. That the City Treasurer of St. Helens Issues a call for outstanding warrants endorsed prior to February 2. 1100? The total amount of city warrant re maining unpaid, issued prior to the in auguration of the preaeut council, amount to but $08. Of course the present council has incurred consider able expense, but no one ia complaining; tlie indebtedness created waa for street improvement, which wa a judicious ex penditure of the city' fund. That at thia Reason of the year the mountains are full of campers and it is necessary that care should bo exercised to prevent the spread of forest lire. A little carelessness may result in destruc tion of uiuclt valuable timber and pos sibly in tho loss of life. People nhould bear in mind that there are strict law reg ulating the setting of fires, and providing penalties for all who cause their aettiuic and fail to extinguish them. It is a small matter to see that the fire I put out, when breaking camp. That Kansas populist his Jerry Simpson and thrust him into outer dark ness? They are too prosperous for him, or rather for hi reputation. They want men who both wear socks ana nave a reputation for wearing them. Jerry is prosperous, too. and wear the roost expensive kind of socks of late. But the reputation of his calamity day cling round him still, and the Kansas popu lists want to be represented by men and women who have the air of blue blooded patricians or plutocrat, since they have put the day of their poverty behind them, and since their banks are loaning money to the poor railroad and banker of the East. That It Is high time that there was some work done on the Clatakanie river? says' the Chief. Perhap someone is holding back, thinking they will get a bonus to push tlie business through. It has been about six year since a peti tion wa sent to congress and nearly two years since an appropriation of $13,000 waa made for this improvement and still the river is as crooked a ever. There should be something done about the matter. Clatakanie might organize a chamber of commerce, push club or some kind of an organization that will look after the interest of the county. You will never get any improvements unless you do something of the kind. Other ton n do so, why not Clatekanie ? That the old saying that It ia no dis grace to be poor isall right? but we would add that it is mighty blamed handy to be rich these days when the roads to the mountains and springs are open, and ail one needs for the trip is wealth enougn to provide a little "grub" for the trip and some one to look after the business at home while you are away. The poor devil of a printer is just the sort of an individual who is compelled to forego the pleasure of such a trip, and stay at home and get out bis paper, even if everybody else is out of town. When it comes to summer outings and vacation the printer ia not in it, but he has the satisfaction of knowing that he will recieve hi reward hereafter. That there has been more farm ma chinery shipped to Clatskanie this season remarks the Clatakanie Chief, than in anv three years since that paper waa started, and we are of the opinion that our citizen should wake op and do something? Every town in the United States is not sleeping, but is rustling to Improve the opportunities offered them. Clatakanie has quite a number offered her, then why not take advantage and rustle for something. Our timber is almost gone. It Is far enough gone to make our citizens begin to figure on Rome other way to keep up their income and we can think of no better way than to establish a flouring mill in our midst. The Chief has tried before to impress the people of this necessity, but they listened not. rVcar. 1891 ..105,22 . ,.;il,770 ,..120,45 . . . 123,781 ...120,:iS ...129,023 ...120,950 ...130,763 ...132,388 To Use Northern Trackage.

President Cannon is now en route east to look after the rolling stock necessary. The road will be laid with 50-pound rails, and timber will be tapped in three mile. The road will be standard guage and it is the purpose of the company to make cordwood of all the timber not used for sawlogs. A switch from the Northern Pacific' track will allow cars to be loaded with poles, wood, etc., and shipped direct to Portland and other points. CIRCUIT COURT.
