Mrs. Frank Brown, of Yankton, died
Monday night at 11 o'clock at the Klght
Mile spring, on the Buuker 11111 road,
where the family had beeu camping for
a few week. About a month ago the
young man fell from a footing across Cow
eeman river, striking on the solid bed
rock of the river, sustaining a (racture
of one wrist and serious injuries to his
head. He was supposed to have been
recovering from the effects of his injur
ies, and was able to be up and around,
but a reaction took place about two days
before his death.
Over at Kelso, In Washington, ome
citizen has demanded the observance of
law and the doors of the three saloons
were locked on Nunday. Speaking of
the matter, the Kelso Journal remarks
thusly; "Kelso people are no worse,
no better than their neighbors ; a holi
day once In seven would be acceptable
to all of them if universal, but they do
most seriously object to being forced to
keep holiday one day in the week while
rival towns' are allowed to keep open
and rob them of trade to the amount of
six or seven hundred dollars, which Is
about the average sum expended among
our merchants every Sunday, leaving
out' the saloon."
Tho supposition that some Individual
or aggregation of individual were wait
ing for an opportunity for a "graft" be
fore starting work on the improvement
of Clatakanie River, is now dispelled by
tho report of Captain Langfltt, who has
the supervision of the river and harbor
improvement work. The delay is caused
through the inability of the tioverment
to procure title to certain lands in that
vicinity. An extract from the Captain'
report published in the Oregonian a few
day ago. aet the matter right before
the people. "Although there is a bal
ance of (12,hVS0 available for improving
the Clatxkauie, nothing was done during
July. When the title to a desired tract
in that vicinity ha been acquired dredg
ing will be roHtimed, and pushed as long

Coal la of l'oor Quality.
Just upon the heels of a most favorable
report on the Upper Nehalem coal, sub
mitted to the Portlund Chamber of Com
merce by Mr. C. I. McKenna, a repre
sentative of that body sent out for the
special purpose of examining all the
coal deposits throughout all the vast
territory drained by the Nehalem river.
comes Mr, Reid and attempts to dis
courage the building of a rood to what
is known as tlie rouble ureok coal neiiis.
We do not believe all we hear or read,
but we do have considerable fulth in
Mr. McKenna's report, and very little
faith in Mr. Rcld's report. We do not
contend that the Pebble Creek coal Is
superior to any other, but we do be
lieve It to tie of sufficient good quality
to warrant its being tranported to mar
ket. There have been dozens of tests
made of the coal by experts, and all
renounce it good steaming coal. Port
und must have coal in order to become
the extensive manufacturing center it
deserves to be, and to dally, with the
reports of people who go and merely ex
amine the outcroppings of the coal de
posits Is absurd. Without reflection
upon Mr. McKenna. practical, intelli
gent coal miners ana experts should be
sent on such missions, supplied with
sufficient materials and assistance to
enablo them to make a thorough test
and examination.

In the annual report blanks sent out

are few persons better qualified to ex
press the needs of the common schools
than men who have had practical ex

number of minor defects In our present
school law that will, no doubt, be rem
edied by the meeting of our next State
Legislature. I believe, however, that

schools i better supervision. The qual
ifications exacted from every one aspir

A LOW ASSESSMENT.
Hade Necessary for Protection from
Higu Kate of Slate Tax.
The action of the Assessors of Mult
nomah and other Willamette Valley
Counties in assessing the property of
ineir uihixicib hi. k iuw vBiunuvi, una
resulted in other Counties making a
similar cut in the assessment rate as a
matter of protection. In commenting
upon tills fact the Portland Telegram
says: Xlie assessment oi umuuua
County foots up about $1,200,000 less
than It aid last year, unuer uie snme
Assessor. This does not indicate thut
the property of that County has depre
ciated in value, but that i.Un Umatilla
County Assessor is going to follow the
example set in Multnomah and some
other Counties, and cut down his figures,
that bis County will not Have to pay so
great a proportion of the State tax as
formerly. So it will be. all along the
line, and the result will be a very small
allowing of property in Oregon, and an
exceedingly high rate of taxation. This
iooks uau on us mce w iiuuiig,aii onu
inquiring visitors, but if, as claimed,
it tends to Keep uown expenditures, u
may be justifiable. Taxation is a prob
lem that we seem to come no nearer solv
ing than our fathers or grandfathers did
indeed, It is doubtful if we do not
make a worse muuuie oi it man mey
did." The assessment roll for Colum
bia County is not yet completed, but it
ia thought by Assessor White that an
increase over last year of about $30,000
will be shown. Mr. White is of the
opinion, however, that the County
lioaru 01 .equalization win rawer iub
values in order to escape the excessive
rate of State tax, a course pursued by
manv Counties of the State. This con
dition of affuirs arises through the non
existence of a State Board oi Equaliza
tion.
Mr. Charlei McCauley and Miss Mary

An extensive vein of coal has been
discovered near Knappa, in Clatsop
County, and a company of business
men of Astoria has been organized to
develop the prospect. Speaking of the
matter the Astorian says: "If the en
terprise proves a success, of which there
is every indication, the promoters argue
that it means more to Astoria than
would the construction of half a dozen
new railway lines about the mouth of
the Columbia. Shipping goo where
the cheapest fuel can be obtained. The
representatives of the Knappa Coal
Company are satisfied that they have an
abundant quantity of good coal right on
the line of the A. & C. railway and close
to the water's edge."
