Mills to cut lumber and plants o
manafactare our natural products iuto
ware lor fjje markets at the world ia
what Columbia county needs, and is also
what the contemplated commercial move
ments will brine about at no distant day.
a Columbia county is to be found every
thing that natnee could provide to sap
port the industries that would make a
community grow and proe-per. All that
is needed ia energy and capital to take
bold of the resources that nature baa
furnished. To some extent both these
requisites have been found and a daw n
itvaj of a new era. in the business history
of our county will be the result.
Talk of constructing a railroad from
Portiaad to Tillamook has been revived
with a great deal of vigor seemingly in
jected into the movement, Ia fact, U
we are to believe reports, actual con
struction work on the independent line
will be in progress jc a very short time.
Skepticism hovers about every move
that ia made and every word that is
Ottered in regard to this road. The
hope of the people have been so often
boilt sp by rumor and as often crushed
by disappointment that there no longer
remains the slightest element of confi
dence in anything that is said or done.
No doubt the gentlemen who are en
deavoring to promote thia great under
taking are encouraged, but efforts have
ao repeatedly Called that no confidence
is placed in anything that if) said or
done in this connection.
N&AsiY every county in the state has
been howling what is known as a good
-roads convention, when the supervisors,
members of the county commissioners'
court and citizens generally get together
and discuss the question of improving
the public thoroughfares. People who
have attended these conventions be
lieve that they are conducive of much
good and more than justify the slight
expense incurred, as they stir up the
settlers to the need of doing something
to better their condition and encourage
movements in the line of highway build
ing that would otherwise never have
been started. Such a convention would
assuredly be a capital thing for Colum
bia county as there is probably no por
tion of Oregon where an improvement
ja the condition of the public highways
)s more badly needed than here.
As the timo draws near for holding
the republican county convention the
announcement of the names of gentle
men who would be available timber for
nomination to the various offices is
being made. There are some of such
announcements in this issue of this
paper, to which we direct the attention
of our readers. This method of con
ducting politics is perfectly honorable
and legitimate and demonstrates that
thexe gentlemen are endeavoring to be
straightforward in their efforts. This
paper claims no further responsibility
in the matter than the giving to the
soBouoeeoients the space they occupy.
We believe men are in politics not for
glory, but for means of making money,
and we know that we are not in the
pewspaper business for our health. If
health were the heighth of our aims we
would go to piling cord wood, Thia
paper does not seek, never has sought to
dictate the nominees of the republican
party of this county, hence the an
nouncements that are made in this re
spect should not be aonsiderad or under
stood a being of a dictatorial nature,
HusDstps of people of tba Northwest
counties of Oregon, and especially
great many people of thia county, will
bail with a degree of delight the fact
that the law enacted by the last legiar
latere, called now, for convenience, the
"logging stream law," has been declared
an unconstitutional act by Judge B. P,
Boise, of the 3rd Judicial district of this
state. The Nehalem river and its tribu
taries in Columbia and Clatsop counties
and other streams in Columbia county
hare been filed upon by corporate com
panies, claiming the right under the act
referred to, to monopolize the use of
those streams to their own pecuniary
benefits. However, at the time these
filings were rnade we believe the parties
claiming the rights had but vague
hope of being able to bold the streams
to their advantage, Tna law provides
that within ninety days after the filing
has been made, steps must be taken to
Improve the streams, but we know of no
effort being made in this direction in
any case In this count. It seems to go
JDon't read Xliiai matter of news. It Is
in regard to politics. You should not
care anything about such matters unless
you have interest enough to get out at
the priawiea and assist in the work of
electing delegates to the rounty conven
tion who will stand for men as nominees
of the arty w&e are desired by the
majority of Hie people. Unless you 4
this, you should take your medicine like
a man. Do not remain away from the
primaries and then find fault with what
the delegates did at the convention. It
is your duty to be at the prima'ries and
endeavor to elect delegates to the
county convention who will strive to
carry out your .wishes. The man who
expects to go before the people asking
their support for office should desire
that every voter of his party in every
prstcinct should be present at the pri
osary. There and then the will of the
party is, or should be,' expressed in
favor or against any certain man as the
nominee of this convention, and the
aspirant for office who is afraid of the
remits of the primary election should
also be shy as to the result of the
general ejection. Get the voice of the
people at the primary and you have a
pretty good idea of what the result of
the election will be.
Them is no provision for the duties of
the third clerk on the first election
board, which is the board working dur
ing the day receiving votes. The third
clerk, so far as can be ascertained, has
nothing to do on the day of election but
sit around and look pleasant. He could,
of course, be used to relieve one of the
Other clerks when one becomes tired.
The third clerk on the night shift, how
ever, will have all he can attend to.
Or late years the election to the office
of county surveyor in this county por
tends an untimely ending of the official.
County Surveyor Little is the second
osSeialin that capacity to meet death
within three years. His predecessor,
Mr. Hayes, died near the end of his
first term. The death of Mr. Hayes was
no surprise, but Mr. Little's sudden
taking off shocks everyone in the
county.
Do not neglect to attend the primaries
of the republican party of thia county,
to be held on Thursday, March 20th.
Every voter in the county of that
political faith should turn out on that
occasion and assist in the work to be
done.

Martin Both, of Eainier, will be a
candidate before the republican county
convention for the nomination for rep
resentative. Mr. both baa been a real
dent of this countv for the past thirteen
years, and stands high in the estimation
of all who know him, as a man of strict
integrity and of broad and liberal ideas
regarding public matters. He has never
been before the voters of Columbia
countv before, and it is only at the earn
est solicitation of personal friends that
he has coocented to become a candidate
for this nomination, and should he be
successful the people of this county may
rest assured 'that its interests will be
well represented and protected in the
state legislature by an efficient and trust
worthy citizen.
Pth ef Mr. A. B. Little.
The people of this county were
shocked on Monday to hear of the death
of Mr. A. B. Little, who, while not hav
ing been ill but a short time, nor was he
considered very dangerously sick, died
very suddenly. About ten days ago Mr.
Little went to Arizona upon the advice
of bis physician, and it was expected to
see him back here in the full enjoyment
of good health in a short time. His
lungs were affected to a more alarming
extent then his friends anticipated, and
after few days spent in the Arizona
climate he succumed to the dreadful
ailment. He died last Saturday, at
Phoenix, Arizona, and his remains were
embalmed and shipped from that place
Tuesday evening. They are expected to
arrive at Houlton today (Friday) and
the funeral services will be conducted at
thechurch at Houlton at 11 o'clock Sat
urday forenoon. The body will be
buried in the Odd Fellow's cemetery at
Warren. Deceased was 49 years and
four months of age. His mother, former
wife and four children survive him
He was a member of the local lodge of
Masons, and that organization will take
charge of the body and conduct the
funeral. Mr. Little has served in the
capaeity of county surveyor of this
county for several years, and no indi
vidual bad a wider acquaintance
tbrougbout the county. He settled in
Besver valley good many years ago,
but later removed to Houlton, where
his home has been for four or five years,

Mr. John McCrackcn, Portland,
president of the coin pa uy incorporated
over a year ago, to project a railroad
from Portland to TUUmook, has com
pleted his held work aod negotiations
with English capitalists and and sub
mitted to the incorporators of the com
pany a detailed report of his labors, to
gether with the assurance that construc
tion could be begun on the line in sixty
days if the board of directors of the
,couipanv will sanction the move.
Mr. McCracken and his company en
deavored to secure trackage over the
lines of either the Northern or Southern
Pacifio for ten miles or such a matter,
out of Portland, in order to save the ex
peuse of that much construction, but the
existing rail hues demanded of the pro
jected line such an unreasonable eon
tract that toe new company could not
afford toaster into contract with either
oi them for trackage facilities, hence
an independent line is agreed upon.
This condition of affairs has resulted
favorably to the project, as capitalists
have since declared that their money
could not have been secured to construct
the remaining part of the road bad an
agreement been made with either of the
meuitioned companies to use their track
age into the Portland terminal grounds.
Two different companies stand ready
to advance the new railroad company
cash on its bonds at the rate of 118,000
a mile for construction work, or a total
of 1 ,584,000. as the whole distance to
cover from Portland to Tillamook or
Nehalem bavs is about 88 miles.
At a meeting of the company held in
Portland Wednesday of last week to re
ceive from President McCracken his re
port of progress made in his endeavors
to enlist aid in the undertaking, that
gentleman's report said in part:
"I am pleased to report that your
company has bean, so far, successful,
having recently discovered a very prac
ticable route through a pass hitherto
unexplored, not eight miles from thia
city, on a max una in descent of a 2 per
cent grade, and without a tunnel or ex
cessive rock-cutting. In order to satisfy
ourselves of the practicability of this
new route, in contrast to others, we re
invited from California that engineer
and superintendent of railroad construc
tion who last fall examined our line
from Tillamook to Glencoe on foot, to
examine in person, which he has re
cently done, these eight miles, and he
reports it a thoroughly practicable line,
at reasonable cost, saving less than $150,
000 over our tunnel route, and he claims
it is the beat of Ibe other local routes to
Portland, which he also examined. Ac
cordingly, renewed applications, with
specifications of details of traffic, ate.,
of the direct line into Portland, have
been transmitted to those various finan
ciers who last summer entertained our
trackage connection bonds and at that
time made special examination of the
country and resources tributary to our
lines. We hsve therein pointed out the
particular advantages of the security of
our new mortgage bond, proposed for
$18,000 per mile of railway direct into
Portland, with terminals here, and we
are gratified with the replies already
received. Two of such financiers have
since sent their separate representatives
(now here) to negotiate with me. as
president, and the secretary as to the
terms on which they can acquire our
bonds and stocks, and while such nego
tiations are necessarily slow, on account
of the freauent reference to tneir pnn
cicala, there is every indication that
they will be able to give your company
obligations to commence construction
within sixty days and contract for the
completion of our first sixty-eight miles
of railway in exchange for stock and
proceeds of bonds to be delivered them
only after each ten miles of railway are
completed, vour directors equipping the
road. I would, therefore, suggest that
to an executive committee ot three oi
rectors, with the president an ex-officio
member, there be delegated full powers
to make all contracts for the sale of the
company's bonds, stock, construction,
operation, equipment and management
of the railway to be built, until the rail
way reaches Nehalem or Tillamook bay,
and as an all-rail connection from which
is obtained into Portland, when yonr di
rectors' functions will cease, and control
and management then turned over to
the bondholders or their assigns."
At a meeting of the organizers of this
company held in Portland last Saturday
it was d radically agreed bv the intend
ing purchasers of the bonds that their
partot the work con id be denniteiy ar
ranged in ten days, and everything now
indicates that there ia some hope of rail
connection between Portland and Tilla
mook within the next year or two.
