Newspaper Page TextOllKUON MIST Entered at the rosloffice at St. Helens, Oregon, a second-clas mail matter. Isstmn Kvkrv Fripav Bv K. H. FLAGG. Editor and Prophiktor, One copy, one year, in advance Six montns Legal notices 35 cento per line. fl IM FRIDAY. Aug. 17, l'.HXk AH TO OVH KCTl'RK. Governor Chamberlain, in his address on Fatnrday las', laid "tres on llio fact that in time to come Columbia Couuly would be in much closer contact than it is toiiay with the metropolis, and that it mould be fouml profitable tor tliose Koekina locations for manufacturing lit' industries to turn their attention thi way. Milt-ites in the city of IVtland r hecoininir so scareo ami valuabb. tliat business of tliia claw I heintf ilriven down the river. Just at present St. John la deriving the most profit from this condition of affair, though Kaiuier has also benefited to a consiiler ahle extent, owing to the fact that it Iwiih river anil rail passing its fac tory doors. Cltkanic, also, thotff. not a convenient shipping point as Hainier, has en!oyed a substantial growth and will continue to prosper, even after the convenient limber has been cut away, as it is the natural out let of a good farming country which is certain to develop in pace with the re moval of the timber. The progress of St. Helens, on the ;contrary, has been so slow as to be hardly perceptible, this being due to the fact that the railroad skip the town by about a mile. Yet, with this drawback, St. Helens is as tnre to become in time a manufacturing village as was St. Johns, and the fact that its development has been long de layed may prove to have been a blessiug in disguise. It is the county seat. The noble structure rising on the rivers' bank settles that question forever. It possesses stone quarries that are becom ing more valuable annually, and whose pay roll will in time exceed that of any other manufactaring industry in the county, and it poseeses a water front capable of being utilized for great man ufacturing institutions to whom tne construction of a spur to the Northern Pacific Railroad at Houlton would be a very small affair. This development sure to come, but the time of its begi nine will depend upon those who are present resident here. They can delay it by refusing to stand together and al lowing petty jealousies and selffchness t interfere with their own interests they can advance it by unselfish and united action. It is probable that in the near future a business proposition will be made to the people of this commnni ty for the establishment of a small dustrr. It is nothing great or eensa tional, bat it will be a beginning, and if secured it will be a great aid to farther development. Let as qait dependin npon one or two men for onr prosperity and see if the men of smaller means by united action, cannot accomplish something. AlVKllTISIXO AND lMMH'.HKHSi. The effect of the advertising given Oregon during the Lewi and Chirk Kxnosilion is!iut being felt. It has brought to this '.ate millions of Eastern capitnl nnd caused capitalist from all over the Union to seek Investment here. und it ha made a market forour products that at present we are unable to fully tiipplv, owing to the inadequate trail Donation facilities. The slump thut many predated has failed to muterialUe, and instead there has been an enormous im-reatte in building, in postal receipts. in bank clearances, and in everything that indicate fubstuntiul growth and prosperity. And tin does not pertain to IVntlmid alone, hut to every section of ihe State. No man is idle unless he prefers idleness, and those who are at work arc receiving t-ie highest wages em known in Oregon. In view of these facts thers is nothing to be said against the policy of advertising the State's sources, or the resource of every county in the State. Columbia County is get ting its full share of this increased pros oeritv. and new industries are being es tablished in every p;irt of the county The good work should be continued, and as a means to that eud, Columbia Coun tv's exhibit at the S'.ate Fair shoutd re ceive the aid nf even' loyal citiien who ho it in his power to contribute any' thing for exhibition. It is impossible for the editor of the Mist, who has charge of the exhibit, to ee you all, nor is it necessary. Send in whatever you have vegetables, grains, fruits d- dressed to K. 11. Flagg, St. Helens, and I will do my best to see that the county receives the attention it deserves. THE Bl'IJXG SEX. pre- will A writer in a popular monthly diets that in time to come women not only have equal rights with men but they will be the governing sex. is certain that is the hope of many them today, and in very many instances the hope has been realized. A persistent woman who desires to rule the roost can always get the best of a peace loving nian, by a constant system of nagging and fanlt'finding that will eventually reduce him to acqniesence or silence, Give woman the power and it has de monstrated that she will use it more mercilessly than men. The male sex has had control for ages and gaadually they have conceded measures of justice to women until there remains but little for them to demand except the suffrage and if they are denied this it is probably because many men fear to give theui the control. AH history teaches that women'rulers are tyrannical and cruel. They are swayed by their passions, and while some have been great rulers, they nearly oil nave ueen arbitrary and op pressive. Catherine of Russia was more of a wild beast than a woman. Elizabeth of Kngland loved one day and sent her lover to tbe block on the Tower the next. Catherine de Medici incited the massacre of the Huguenots and was a rejoicing eye witness of the horrible affair. There is absolutely nothing in history to show that female rulers are more just or more merciful than men. The world has known kind hearted male autocrats, but women who have been born to or achieved supreme power have always used it in a despotic manner. Equal sulfrage, so far as it has been granted in the United States, has not given great power to women, for the reason that as yet they have not used it for that purpose. The wife generally votes with the husband, and if not, she votes her own convictions, without any desire to place her sex in' control. If suffrage was equal and ques tions involving sex interest were up for settlement, the women, if victorious, would undoubtedly be the rulers of the men ;but that event is so far in the future that we may safely leave the men and women of another century to scrap it out together, happy in the fuct that the men of the present day, if not in re ality the governing sex. ran console themselves with the semblance if I ot the reality of power. THE DRACO DOCTRINE Ir. Louis M. Drago, of the Argentine Republic, ha advanced the doctrine that no nation has a ritrht to undertake to collect by force debt owing to its citi zens bv another nation. The doctrine commends itself to fair-minded people everywhere. If citizens of the United States desire to engage in business in any other country they should be willing to abide by the laws in force in that country and be content with such justice as they are able to secure from its courts. This is the practice that prevail among the great nations of tbe earth, and we cer tainly would fight should any other na tion attempt to bulldoze our courts into giving such decisions in favor aliens as their home governments thought just. Yet the greater nations interfere fre quently in the affairs of Ihe South Amer ican Republic, and no doubt many a colossal graft ha in this manner been made possible. The principle advanced by Dr. Drago is a simple one, and it will ultimately be recognized as international law. We have protected Venezuela against the aggression of lireat Britain, and now we are called upon to admit that we have no right, simply because we may have the power, to force our ideas of financial justice to private individuals npon any nation when we would not admit that they have the same right in regard to their citizens living and doing business in the United States. Might has made righ heretofore, but no nation is greater than all other nations, ot ever will be, and the principle will soon be established that the nations of the earth will insist on in ternational equity without regard to tbe comparative strength of the parties to a contest. IT WAS A HAPPY TIME CELEBRATION HEKB SATIKILVY A SI (. CESS IX EVERY WAV. Speech by (.rerntr Chamberlain XrkIc by l'trxona' Hand SlRglug, liuat Race, and a lilt Dinner Everybody Ila4 a (Jootl Time. It has been discovered that no pro vision was made by Congress to cover the cost of enforcing the pure food law. The regulations will be promulgated in September, but the law will not be actually effective nntil the necessary ap propriation is made by the next Con gress. Just suppose, for instance, that the next Congress should conclude that we do not need such a law and should decide to repeal it. Where would we be at" then ? It would be too bad to have to wait so long before having this whole some law enforced, but it would be much worse to find that eventually we would never have such safeguards for the pub lic welfare, lint there is little doubt that any future session of tbe national law making body will go ahead and see that this law, or perhaps even a better one is strictly enforced. Ten thousand murders a year in the United States the darkest criminal record of any civilized nation on earth. Are we more brutal than other nations? We will not admit it. No people are more fraternul, kind and generous tiian the American people. The only expla nation of our ukiuI criminal record lies in the fact that we are the most lax na- ion in the world in the enforcement of our criminal laws. If a man eteuls an old shot gun the chances are that he will serve a term in the penitentiary; f he kills a fellow limn the chances are that he will go without punishment. In the ncquital and nonpunishn.eut of our criminals we have been "flowing the Dragon's teeth" and are now reaping a fearful harvest. The Temple of Civiliza tion is builded on the bed-rock of law. Ji is the only safeguard of the indi vidual, the family, the community and the State. Governor Chamberluin praised Colum bia County's exhibit at the Lewis and Clark Exposition.

Business is dull the day they don't kill a lineman on some of the Portland elec. trie lines. It's about time for the labor commissioner to take a band In that gama. It may be that some time In the future Columbia County will see a larger gathering of happy ieoplo than that which assembled in the picnic grounds In this citv on Saturday lost ; but np to this date it ha had no equal. They txgtui coming from nearby point early tit the morning, then the Northern Paci fic brought about AX) trout Scnppoose and Warren, the Republla arrived with the Governor of Oregou, the Cirniid Lodge of Masons, Parson's fatuous band o(fixtwn pieces, Mr. Alexander, the soloist and a number of distinguished visitors. A tune by the band in front of the old court house, and then-all took up the line of march to the picnic grounds. The A. A C. train was lute, but when it arrived it brought another crowd from Clutskauie, the lower Nvhaleui, Rainier, tioble aud other points along the road, ami when Judge liattitn arose to start the proceeding as chairman of the day he faced a crowd estimated at from 1000 to 1500 people, a very coservative figure being 1100. Prominent upon the plat form were n number of the oldest pio neers of Coulmbia County, and during the entire day aa especial effort was made to make the pioneers feel that they were our honored guests, and we are sure that in this at least we succeeded. After music by the band and a solo by Mr. Alexander, Mr. W. II. Powell deliv ered the address of welcome on the part uf the city of St. Helens. He expressed the community's plcajurein entertaining so nuny of our fellow citizens of Colum bia County, and hoped that the spirit of unity would prevail among as, and that in the future we would all work together without any jealousv for the public good. iiovernor Chamberlain was next in troduced, and although he had expre-sly refused by letter to deliver the principal address of the day, yet the sitnatiou was such that he was compelled to do so. He spoke w ithoot note and proliably did not occupy more than twenty min utes, yet hia address may be said to have Ucn the priucil event of the day It was without any attempt at oratory, but tilled with happy thoughts and far- seeing predictions. He spoke of Colum bia County as a suburb of the city of Portland, and predicted that on account of the lankily increasing value of land in the metropolis the time was not far distant when the saw mill and other factories needing considerable space would be compelled to come to Colum bia County for locations and electric line would bind this county and the metropolis still closer together. He evinced a thorough familiarity with the resources of the county, and praised it for the fine showing it made at the Lewis and Clark Centennial. Hon. J. C. Moreland, of Portland, was next introdaced and delivered a fine address to the pioneers of the county. Judge Moreland is well qualified to speak on this theme, oi he is himself a pioneer and well acquainted with the trials and hardship they endured in crossing the continent and .during the early days of the settlement of Oregon. Ihe program was interspersed with band music and vocal solos and probably the best test of its excellence was the quiet that prevailed and the fact that hardly a person of the large crowd left their seat or their standing position. There was perfect order throughout the delivery of the three addresses, some thing most remarkable on such occa sions. Then came the dinner. Six hundred plates had been spread, but many more people stood at the first table and ate from the clean paer with which it was covered. It seemed impossible to make the crowd understand that there was an abundance for all, and all thut was necessary was for those who could not get to the first table to wait their turn, and we are sorry to be informed that some left the grounds without eating. The arrangements for the dinner were entirely in the hands of the ladies, and It is simple justice to say that they were as near perfection as mortal ever get. At the head of the long rows of tubies was arranged the commissary depart ment, with serving tables on three sides of another long table used for tliose who waited on the corps of waiter, who in turn kept Ihe tables replenished with the bill of fare, and back of these was th coffee kitchen, where Mr. M. C, Gray brewed the beverage which cheers without intoxicating. The eatables served were limited to roust beef. boiled hum, bread and butter, pies and cakes, coiree, doughnuts, pickles, and cheese, but everything was of such ex cellent quality, nnd so well cooked, (lint it is hard to see how better satisfaction could have Ix-cn given. They were a lot of tired women when the night enme, ! uut tney were happy in the fact that they had done their full part In maintaining the city' reputation for hospitality, Immediately after dinner, at about 2:.'K) p. in., tho Masonic Grand Lodge of fheKtateof Oregon met at the local place j lodge room, formed n procession and marched to the court house, where Ihe ceremony of the laying of the corner stone was conducted in an impressive manner by (irand Master Williamson. of Portland, assisted by the Grand Lodge officer. j The last feature of the day' program was the races between gasoline launches on the river, about twenty boat partici pating. There were two race. The first rsc was for launebts of three and four how power, (he distance- being about n milu and a quarter to the Mak boat. There werw nine entries, John Lvnintf winning, Will llenilei second, Homer third, James C le font tit. First ptino 8, second $0, third 1, notiith i-- The second race w for boats of smaller power, the entries Ih-'iii! IVrvy Harrison, lav Young and Alfred (ieorge, Harrison being the winner, and the prizes JA, f:i and ru.-cvlivcly. And then the hull in the evening or, rather the two balls with orchestras of live pieces in each hall, ltoth hails were well tilled. The intisia was nil that Terpsichoie could B-k for, nnd nothlhit occurred to imir the plciisuro of the tUncets, who enjoyed themselves free of cost until Ihe clock struck the hour of midnight, and then quite a num ber of them nttended the dance at our sinter city of Houlton.

Fred Rergerson is out from Portland, visiting hi brothers a few days. There was enough rain I ere Sunday to help the late cnpj, and so far has done no hstui to grain. Harvest Is in full blast nnd a belter crop never grew np out of the tarth. Campers in this vicinity say that cm in Washington County are not to lie compared to our Nehalem grain. A. C.
