TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS, 'ihe Mist is setniUis bills to nil who npicar to ba dclitiquent'uidre than one j-ear. The previous innnnRPnror.t ' of this paper has been so tooso that we liava no doubt some of our subscriber ro eutitleJ to credits which they have hot received, and these will be cheer fully given. We trust that in every: instance where an error has lieen made and a bill sent for more than the amount due, it will be promptly returned, with statement of fact that will enable us to (' matters' right. The editor desires to correct his list and to collect bat is justly due, and to drop from the list ilio.TO who are greatly in arrears. Iu om instances men are delinquent for ten years, and very many owe lor five years. Most of tluso we believe to be honest and responsible people, d lue fault is largely due to tho manner in Nvbieh'tlie paper has been conducted in tho past. It" you do u't wai t the paper, pay up and stop it. The Mist will not be sent to any one w ho does not desire t. We have to pay for the papers we send out and v.c want to make the paper worthy of the patronage of every titiren of this county, therefore we in tend to send it only to those who pay heir subscript! in. .

The gpntlomen connected w ith a soap taciory now in operation atSerttlespent two days a week or ten days'sgo look ing over Eainier with a view of starting a similar factory at that place. The gentlemen are very favorably impressed with the facilities oflered there and the bonus asked is very modest, if we re member right. The site for the factory roust contain not Ksca than one acre of ground, and the Hou. Dean Blanchard was approached as the owner of the location most desirable, being not far j from the old sash and aoor factory des troyed by fire. In addition to this the Citizens are asked to subscribe for stock in the enterprise at 25 cents per share. aThe soap is of a superior cualiiv end ihe gentlemen who are at the bead of it certainly have a bonanza. The soap is equally as well adapted to the toilet as tho laondry, for it contains chemicals, is of a gritty, sandy nature, and remotes ink, paint, and any other substances. The Board of Trade or business men of Bainier took up the proposition at its meeting held Saturday, when the ques tion of raising the amount asked to compensate for the site and number of shares taken was to be considered. The factory is said to be entirely odorless, and therefore no nuisance to a neigb-' Borhood. The gentlemeu bring skilled workmen with them and as soap is a Staple article, any one subscribing (or stock can easily see that be runs no risk or that the enterprise is no gold brick proposition. ' As Iloulton has a stave factory, em ploying fifty hands, w hich is as impor tant to a town as the Columbia River Sash A Door factory at Bainier, it needs no pessimist to see that the day is almost here when capitalists or enter prises seeking investment and locations ere bunting us up. Our river and rail road facilities are superb and our forests furnish abundant - raw material. ' A good, healthy pay-roll is the back bone ef a community. No one scatters money more quickly and evenly than a uie- eh'anlcV ' St. "Helens aloae, of. the communities of Columbia county, has shown no decided improvement in the recent past. Since the editor was hut a resident of Columbia county' the county seat has acquired a water works system, a band some school house, three new churches, and crushed rock streets. These are substantial improvements, but we ex pect a much greater advance in the near future. For many years there was no place deader than St. Johns; but the dme cans when the water frontage was Seeded for Manufacturing sites, and the old tcwu look on new life -acd.ia now filled with the hum of industry. The same thing will happen here, and we expect next year to see the beginning of Bt. HelenB' substantial and rapid im provement. The corner stone for the sew court house will be laid, and there will be a new wharf and a modern saw mill. - ' THE cbXoKAlio T ROUBLES. In all the denunciation of the miners of Colorado for the violations of law eharged to" their account, it hhotild be remembered that the rich mine owners of the state were the first to violate the law, and that this action on their part is the cause of all the present trouble. The Legislature of Colorado passed an eight-hour Jaw and the mine owners re fused to comply with its provisions. Then came the strike. Law-breaking by the capitalists led to law-breaking by tbe miners. The troops were called out SKiNd OFAWAKEMNU. On August 2d ami Sd a convention will meet in I'ortland, under the au spices of the Portland Commercial Club, for the purpose of organising an Oregon Development League. The organitation of such a body is long j-.t 'due, and 11 ' is proiier that the movsuieut should originate with l'Oiliaiui s commercial organization. The main fotor in the development of Oregon is to be the luiuic-seekor w ho conies for the purpose of engaging in agriculture ; but there is tso al;uiU..mt oppor janity for the manu facturer, the future great market for Oregon products is to be tho Orient T'u )'li!ilippi,te, Japan, China and Omental Russia, will consume millions of dollars wortfi of foodstuff and of woolen goods. The manufacturers of the Eastern states labor n ruler an im cienio disadvantage in supplying these markets', on aecorftit of distance. Fac tories ocateJ in Oregon would, there fore, have a groat advantage in com peting for Oriental business. It ill be tho province of the Development League to make tiiee facts known, in an ampl tied form, to possible investors and to home-seekers. There shouM be at every county scat, and in every iuipo tant locality, some person who will make it his business to answer lettersof inquiry, and these answers should bear the stamp of approval of some organiza tion of reputable citizens. There was at one time published a pamphlet entitled " "The Resources of the Slate of Oregon." It was compiled by authority of tbe State Board of Agriculture and printed at tbe State priuting cfU; c, ami, although it was nut as complete or as well gotten up as it should have been, nor as thorough!' distributed, we have no doubt it was instrumental in bringing many desira ble settlers to Oregon. As all seciions of the etat'j benefit by tbe distribution of reliable information, nl as a docu ment from official sources is always more reliable and influential than one from private or speculative sources, it would be a gool investment of the peo ple's liioiiejr if the next session of the fcegisUfture 'provided for"the publication of .1 complete exposition of Oregon's resources and advantages and placed the same at the disposal of the Develop ment League for distribution. to study the men and women at work, or witness a dog feast, to realise their primitive character, mid then to pass on to the constabulary, tho boginntng of tbe army of tho Philippines, representa tives of many tribes hostile to oh plher, but brought together and har monized by the uniform they wear and the Hag they salute. The Philippine Exposition was or ganized to show what has been done, and what is being done tit tno istanus. It is an educational exhibit from be ginning to cud, and we want you to see it. If yon will call upon me at the ex position,! shall be glad to supply yon with nasses. If at any time you want eeueral Information about the exhibit, or special illustrated articles, I cau fur nish them free of charge. Yours very truly, ' " HKK IKRT S.

A SORROW STRICKEN FAMILY, riisfortutics Have Been Hultlplled For Them During The Past Week. A FEW QUEUES At the recent meeting the Orenon State Grange adopted a resolution asking the State Legislature to make nn annual appropriation of $1000 for farmers' institute work, and this, ac cording to the Oregon Agriculturist, is considered to be a reasonable request, and should be acceded to. We have no doubt the appropriation would be of considerable value to the agricultural interests of the state; but this, and all similar measures naturally evoke the inquiry, "What is the duty of the state toward its citizens?" We are rapidly becoming paternal government, and the appeal for Btate and governmental aid is becoming more insistent every year. If the people of, pastern Orejn can not raise wheat profitably, on ac count of freight charge?, then the state must build them a canal at an enor mous cost. If the salmon industry is in danger of extinction, then the state must establish hatcheries and provide officers to see that the laws fcr the pro tection of our food fish are enforced'. We must bare a State Board of Agriculture, 1,'airy and Food Commissioner, a Bu reau of Labor Statistics, a t isn Com missioner, and other boards and officials whose chief duty is to protect certain lines of industry, and there appears to be no good reason why exception should be made of tiie industries that are not now under the tutelage and protection of the state or of the General Government. Throw open wide the doors of the treas ury and let them all take a grab. There is no reason, except its superior im portance, why agricultur; should be more highly protected than any other industry, or wby salmon packers and. fishers should receive state aid in pref erence to chicken raisers. The medical profession is one of the greatest import ance to all mankind, and why should there not be a free state medical school, witbachair for every separate fad in medicine? Wby should the General Government be so partial to a one eighth portion of Indian blood as to clothe and educate its fortunate posses sor?. Why should partial socialism be commended and perfect socialism de nounced? Where is the line between socialism and the present system, and bow olten bas the line been moved? Ono would hardly think that there is onough in tho honor of being a car nival queen to warrant tho expenditure of :t tWO by one person for voles for his favorite candidate, yet tins is about the amount Mr. Mason spent for his daugh ter, and when she declined to serve as the qu.in, Mr. Mason was. giveu. tils niouey back.

Those who reiul the account in last week's Mist of the attempted suicide of JvdiU Sobiska must have had their sym-rmthit-s aroused for the old nuVu. who, after suffering for years from the result of bring injured by a falling tree, sougiu relief in death; yet, had he had tne courage to resist the nauiial impulse to escape pain, a much greater tragedy would have lwen averted. As a result of his injuries, Miss Augus ta Sobiska, who has been for a long time employed as a waitress at the St. Charles Restaurant, Portland, was summoned home, and on Saturday afternoon she and her sisters Nettie and Eva, and her brother Johnnie, went bathing in the mill dam on Tedford Creek, a small tributary of Milton Creek, with the re sult that Augusta, Eva and Johnnie were frowned.

AIC.USTA SOBISKA. Nettie Sobiska cin Sunday last, she Ijc- came mired in the soft ground and called for help. The others naturally rushed to her assistance. Then by a freak of chance, Nettie pulled herself from the treacherous, clinging mud, while her rescuers found themselves fast sinking beneath the water and unable to get a sure footing on tbe muddy bottom. Nettie's strength was exhausted when shereaclnd a place of safety, and her efforts to" save her sister and bnithj were futile. ttie three young people drowned in a still pool, not over seven feet deep. The dam is in a. little gully, almost entirely ridge-locked, aniis secured by a sluice gate. Had this gate been opened at Net tie's first call for assistance, there would probably have cen no fatalities, but the sisters and brother obeyed tbeir natural impulse to run into the water to aid their sisler. Upon receipt of the news at St. Helens Mr. K. R. Quick immediately tele graphed to I'ortland for the collins, which arrived by express Sunday at Houlton, and were immediately taken to h.

' ti The register and receiver of tbe Ore gon City land, office rendered five decisions recently in regard to home stead claims affecting title to lands in f,inn county, about 10 or 12 miles from Larwood, Ore. The entryuien, in all of these cases, hod made commutation proof, and after their proof was made and final receipts issued, contests were initiated, and the cases were tried out upon the charge that the entrymen bad not resided upon, cultivated and im proved tbeir claims as by law required. The decision of the local office was to the effect that these parties had not complied with the homestead law, and recommended the cancellation of their entries. It appears that the entrymen sold their claims soon after making final proof for 000 apiece. While there is nothing in the homestead law to prevent an en try man selling bis claims soon after making filial proof, yet his claim is subject to conteet until patent has issued,' and tbe party who buys the claim mti8t rest his title upon that of the eatrymen. .rtiiy people imagine thai final receipt is equivalent to patent, which is not true. These cases are being watched with considerable interest, as there are many others in a similar condition. Night Was Her Terror. "I would cough nearly all night long," writes Mrs. Chas.
