Thanksgiving Day, which we have just observed , was truly a thanksgiving. Never in the history of our nation was tliere inch a degree of thiift, prosperity and weaitti as is now being enjoyea oy the people everywhere, and that ia reason enough to be truly thankful. The past Year has added to the opportu nities of the American people to forge ahead in a sense of wealth, with conae auent happiness, for wealth, where there ia health, consitutes the highest degree of happiness with most people. With some of ua there have been occur rences during the past years which wounded our hearts, and brought blights upon our hopes, but upon philosophical view these were but the consequences that come along down the vicissitudes of time, which heal the wounds and bring sunshine and happiness to hearts in gloom. As a nation we have experienced the dire calamity of the loss of an honored executive, but we feel thankful that the good influences left by that martyred man has enabled ns to continue in a inert and righteous course, and that we lave at the helm of onr abip of state another whose iron will, pronounced de termination and Doneaty ot purpose wiu carefully guide us in our onward career. These conditions invite na to rest secure in oar present prosperity and faith in its continuance. Ohm of the exigencies of the day is called to mind by a circumstance that occurred in our county seat last week. when a man, whom the battles of life for more than three score years and ten have left their mark upon with telling effect. was committed to the asylum for want of a more suitable institution wnere he might receive the treatment and consid eration which he needs and ia worthy of. Althoogh physically, mentally and financially unable to care for himself as he should be cared for. it is extremely nnfortunate that he now baa to be con fined in such an institution aa an asy lum, where the environments are such as to drive the thorn ol distraction deep into the wounda ol Hopelessness and de spair, occasioned by circumstances over Which the enfeebled old soul had not the power of control. There should be an institution provided and maintained by the state where such people could have a home and necessary and proper treatment, without being surrounded by lunatics, which fact alone would produce violent insanity in even a stronger phys ique and mind. Uid man Lane ia not insane, but his mind ia weak and he is unable to care for himself, and if there had been any place other than an asy lum, there is where he should he taken for treatment and care. Such a case calls out all the sympathetic qualities of man, but sympathy does not repair this old man's wounded feelings, restore his mind to its normal condition nor supply the place necessary for the care of each unfortunates. Kainikb has scored a victory, and if any element was lacking to win her the distinction oi being one ol tne lively towns of the county, that requisite has been supplied in tne recent acquisition of so important an enterprise as an ex port sawmill, such as the new proprie tors of the Smith mill will make of the plant, and the achievement is one that the people of that place may pardonably be exultant over. Snch an important enterprise ia one that anv place wonld rightly welcome with heraldry, that the . whole country round about might be come apprised of the fact that the town possesses not only the natural induce ments, but the degree of development and enterprise, mingled with the good fortune of rail and water transportation as to afford inducement for so valuable a thing as an export sawmill, which will give employment to no leas than one hundred persons. It is enterprises of that kind that builds and makes a town and sustains the people in it; that gives encouragement to those already there to invest, improve and enlarge, and invites others who would like to invest and enter into commercial pursuits, which also enlarges the capacity and enhances the value of property. Rainier has gradually been forging ahead for several years, the citizens doing. what tbey could by their onn means to buildup and improve the town, nntil it became known as a good business point, where employment could be had for the seek ing and where good educational facilities j vxinuru, nuii Mie tensi, important tuingin the consideration of people looking for a desirable location, where not only a com petency might be earned and laid by, but where hope for future greatness could be entertained not in vain. We are not inclined to view these transpir ing events with a look of envy or malice, but rather 'feel proud to glory in the achievements of our sister town and ex tend hearty congratulations upon her present good fortune and express the hone that other and equally important additions may soon be made to her al ready quite large list, of commercial en certainty of its rapid development, its proximity to the state metropolis and its certainty to become a prosperous ami wealthy county in the course of a very few years. This year Oregon has been blessed with abundant crops, fruits of all kinds have done well, granaries and burns are well filled, stock is looking well, and everthing should assist in pro moting a feeling of hope and good cheer. There is an abundance of employment throughout the county for those desiring work, and the conditions existing here are of a most inviting nature. We do not consider it overstepping the bounds of truthfulness to say positively that fifty new families have located iu the vicinity of St. Helena within the last year, and the degree of development going on ia reason for congratulation and hope. We know that other parte of the county have received additions to the population, and the prospect ia all but uiscouragi ng. We bid a most hearty welcome to the new-comers who have appeared to add their brains, brawn and capital for the up-building of Columbia county. Rumoii says, quite unnecessarily, that the president is writing his message with bis own hand and in his own way. Who expected anything else of Theodore Roosevelt? But rumor saya further that this first Roosevelt message to congress will be a short one. That's a pleasant hearing and we hope it's so. In the beginning the message was, as regards size, a very modest anair. . it did not even emulate the bare-ribbed attenuation of the "speech from the throne." against the American equiva lent of which it was, indeed, in a way, a Jeifersonian protest, but there was nothing of the Daniel Lambert about it in tne third president's time nor in the fourth. It grew a little in Monroe's time, erew Quite perceptibly in John yuincy Adams', grew portentiously in Anurew jacxaou a. tie was as copious when he had a controversy on hand as he was pugnacious. Of the later ante bellum president. Polk was a sad of fender aa regards prolixity, and not the only one. It has already become an unwritten law oi the White House that all the more important things said in the reports of the heads of departments .tt . . .... snouid be said over again in tne mes sage. Only one president since Abra ham Lincoln a time has ventured to dis regard this law, and he only once. If President Roosevelt, in the coming message, breaks tnis toousn unwritten law (which ia only a custom, after all) into smithereens, he will do a good thing for himself and his successors, for the people of 1SWI and their descend ants. The custom, once broken, is nrettv snrelv done for. The rehash of the departmental reports became long ago a weariness to presidents and public alike. The short message will have thousands of eager, interested readers, where tiie nnoonscienably long message hastens. A HAKoeom school building, hand somely furnished and surrounded by handsome grounds is a source of intel lectual and moral stimulus and nolift second only to the personal influence of a strong, pure, healthy, bright and en thusiastic teacher. These two condi tions make the ideal school. Fortu nately for the local school, it is deficient in these respects only in the former condition, and that deficiency is now practically supplied, By the time arrives for the opening of school another year there will be a beautiful school building adorning the spot where now stands a structure used lor a scnooi-nouse. This indicates thrift, enterprise, progression. and is evidence of the fact that educa tional matters are held in high estima tion by our people as a condition to hich our loftiest aims should be di rected. We want better educational ad vantages; the times demand them. A good school in a community is the key stone in tne arenway oi ail tne loitier ideals of life. the Buffalo Pan-American exposition to make us all gliuf we live In so good a county, one capable of producing arti cles worthy ot such ho'ior. It may be trulv ami honorably said that these award rwmlied from and by reason of merit and not through any '"pull" or other influence CUTSKASIE SEWS ITEMS. ' Christian Troisier has moved his family to the metropolis for the winter to get iu out ot the wet, Onr slippery street crossings are being replaced by substantial plank walks as rapidly as tits marshal and assistants can do the work. C. W. Jones Is getting hia house in Haxel Grove moved around to face the new county road aud expects to build an addition in its new locality. T. J. Flippln Is bringing plank to town from his mill with a purpose to fight it out, mud or no mud, until he completes the orders given him. Extensive preparations are going on for a literary and musical entertainment to be given on Wednesday evening of this week by the Junior League. It ia expected that our merchants will close their stores on at least a portion of Thanksgiving Day, and a programme for annroDriata services to be neld in church has been announced for the fore noon. It was feared that turkeys would be scarce about hers for thanksgiving, but aa the day approached, the fowls put in their appearance aiso, and any person with the cash could procure one without difficulty. Dan Quinan, a familiar flgure about Page's store, has taken a wife (and some children) to himself, and has also pur chased the Mrs. Aldridge property, on Walnut street, and expects soon to enjoy the comforts of a home. His friends offer congratulations. A young men's brigade baa been or ganised in town for mutual, social and intellectual improvement along moral lines. Recognising the interest of the pastor nere, jiev. J. xv.. niwinn, in their behalf, a present of a fine turkey was sent him Monday with the compli ments of the brigade. A number of the boys ot greater and lesser sise, procured musical instru ments more or less discordant in sound. on last Saturday evening, to organise a Calathumpean band and proceed to ser enade somebody. After diligent in quiry as to who needed serenading, the organization adjourned without action aa there seemed no demand for their services. Some bovs. like crows, want to get up in the world and look down lor game. Dan Carter climbed up in the woodshed belonging to the school property, a few days ago, but could not compete with the crow in getting down, and carries one arm in a sung on a account ti a break near the wrist, Some other bovs will probably doaa well later on. Noth ing like the rising generation showing what it is capable of. The recent rise in the Clatskanie river started thousands of logs floating, too many in fact for a successful voyage to tide water in so small a stream. The result was that a jam was started which speedily assumed proportions too great to be successfully dealt with and the logs are piled up in great shape some two miles above tide water. It is reported however that about 600 logs got through ahead of the obstruction. COMMERCIAL NOTES , , '"TJT a. EXECUTOR'S Hones. N0T1OR 18 HRRKBY (UVKitTIf ATTHIt UN" denlgned has been, by Ilia Hob.

It has been suggested that a history be written on the state and placed in every public school, that teachers and pupils may have, at all times, access to a work that will give in detail the history of the dis covery, growth and development of Ore gon. The subject is worthy of the thought and the best efforts of those in terested in Oreoon history, and that should include all Oregon ians, either by birth or residence, for Oregon history is one of the most interesting subjects in the development of the nation. Oregon School Journal. Ait Eastern Oregon exchange is au thority for the statement that Senator Mitchell contemplates introducing a bill for the establishment of an Eastern Oregon federal judicial district, with its own judge, marshal, clerk, United States district attorney and other judicial offi cers.

Perhaps University Park will give larger oppor tunities for his talents, but we will welcome him back if he finds he baa made a mistake in moving away.

When the man was taken to the police station it was found that be was well dressed, wore diamonds and had an abundance of money in bis pockets. He said he was a "tourist" and had boarded the train at Scappoose, paying the brakes man si to.rideon the top ol a car. He had a belt around his waist which was stuffed with bank notes." While there are plenty of people about Scappoose who wear good clothes and have plenty of money, we think none are so penurious as to care to take a midnight journey on the hurricane deck of a passenger coach, just for the sake of saving a dollar. He must have been a "tourist," indeed. NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT In the County Court ol ths Stats of Oreoon, In and for Columbia Countv. In the matter ot the alat Ot Sll O. Foato dect-Hited.

Jeer now evertbing in the way of real estate seems to be assuming new values. During the past few months many East ern people have come West in search of new homes, where climate, general neaitfiiuiness and lair opportunities for business enterprise present themselves. Some of these people have chosen Co lumbia county as the nearest perfect of all places according to their ideas. Among the new-comers are men of some means, who have been in business in other states, and who have the necessary push and energy to insure success in any country. They will go into the country, for the most part, and develop and help build up the county. Iu many instances IotiNEss is dry rot in the nation as it is in the individual. If mankind would progress it must find employment for all its members. This employment must not necessarily be toil. A man does not have to labor ten or twelve hours out of each twenty-four in order to have good health. Health requires almost con stant employment, but not almost con' stant labor. Toll is not even necessary to health. The great Question of the age is how we shall furnish employment mat win ornig sustenance and neaitn to our entire population. Try a sack of "Superb" flour. Every sack guaranteed. Is made of hard wheat and makes good bread. "Superb" is soia py uoiuna uray. CASTOR I A For Infants And Children.
