Two bills to raise the salaries of Columbia County officials nave ocen ltitroaucca by beuator Hodson aud have passed the Senate. The salary of the sheriff is not directly raised, but his traveling expenses are provided for. leaving $1400 per year net compensation. me biicnii s traveling expenses Jiave been oaid out of Ins own pocket, and we understand that in at least his monthly expense exceeded his salary. The office is one in which a man is called upon to risk his life for the public good, and the-present sheriff has never been found wanting either in courage or ability. We do not believe there are very many substantial taxpayers in this county who cousider $1400 per year any moie than a reasonable compensation for a laimmi aiscnarge 01 tne duties ot that omce. The office of assessor is, sd far as our financial prosperity is concerned, the most important in the county. This bill proposes to increase this salarv to 1200 ner vear net. If the people want good work willing w pay ior u. 1 lost to Columbia County the the salaries of Columbia County's officials for all time to: come by the slipshod manner in which assessments have;1' been made. The present assessor is improving quite rapidly ; ' " and is giving the pconle a better show than thev have liaH ! for years. Very much remains to be done, and his work! .... . ... Should be Carefully Scrutinized. .1 W . tnese increased burdens are placed where they belong upon those who have heretofore not paid their jus? taxes.2 TiLe a uv kuuu icitsuii wiiy in; nue .... !f.

The Mist ist in reciept of a Minneapolis paper by President Klliot of the Northern Pa cific Railroad, the object of which is to instruct the country press as to the great efforts transportation companies to tne tiusiness ot the country. It is a very able special plea and demonstrates that the Northern Pacific has paid out an mmense sum of money in the and if the railroads have done must be admitted that under private ownership they are un able to cope with a great emergency. Mr. Elliot very truth fully says the railroads are not in possession cf Aladdin's lamp. They cannot procure an unlimited supply of money by merely wishing for it, and is not so very long since many of them were in the hands of the receivers. There is, however, one corporation that can secure all the funds neces sary to meet any emergency. It has demonstrated its ability to raise billions upon its promise to pay and it can get all the men and means necessary to keep pace with its own prosperity. The Government of the United States is a pub lic service corporation. If it owned the roads there would be no necessity for a car shortage or a coal famine. It does not hesitate to run rural free delivery roads wherever it can serve a reasonable number of people, nor is it alarmed if some particular branch of its service fails to pay expenses. It spends billions upon the improvements of rivers and har bors and looks to l he general prosperity of the country for its returns. If it owned roads it could order cars from Flori da to the Dakotas, or from any point where there was an abundance to a point where there was a scarcity. It wonld not have to make enormous profits upon watered stock or to go into the hands of a receiver at the first breath of hard times. In fact, the ownership of the railroads by the Gov ernment would do much to prevent the recurrence of such times. The prosperity of the country is in the hands of the transportation companies. Why not put the transpor tation companies iu the hands of the Government. IHI.b KEtil I.AT1XU EMPLOl ME. NT OF CH1I.UKEX. I fx lit prodgies, child won.lrrs, juve nile actors und entertainers are debarr ed from the s.iige by Semite bill 20 in- trodued by Senator Beach and drafted and advocited liy Judge Kraner, of the Portland Juvenile Court, h) the Port land Telegram. This provision govern ing child performance appear to hi the ....i.. ... ...i.i..i. ...;n .i;o.,i;. uiii. cviwi'i. nuitii tnuw uwn.i.- (action in the future. The objevt oi the bill In tl'O inuin is to regulate the treatment and con I ml of dependent, neglected mid delinquent children, to provide for their suport, edm-atlon and punishment, to provide fr the separa tion of children from udults when con lined in jails, and to supervise all corpo ratiouti, ancit-tii'S and hist tuiious whirb receive under the provisions of the art. Toe sweeping part of tlia measure which eliminates tho child performer is "and any child under the nge of 14 yeara who is found begging, peddling or sell ing any articles, or singing or playing any musical instrument upon the street or giving any public entertainments, or who accompanies or is n)l in aid or any person so doing." if this construction ol the proposed law is correct, and it so upiars, because no exceptions nre specified, it will a licet many of the performances given in Port land theatres. There is scarcely a mouth when a child acrobat, musician or actor is not found on one ot tlw vaud yillo bills, and et least that often chil dren nre found in the plavs presonted "'!rea i'rveling com- panics. Kverv circus has a half a doxen boy clowns, riders and gymnasts, and all these are under the ttkiue The bill will also prevent children from picking bops in the fields of the Willntiittte Valley, or strawberries lu Eastern OiCgou, because It is a mensute to prevent child labor. In vot'ng for Ibe bill, the Seuators un Coiiciously put themselves on record against their own pages, as the boys, or ut least two of them, nre not 14 yeais old. Senator Colo was lu the peculiar position of oting for the bill which alTects his own son, the youngest page in the Senate Chamber. These examples are some of the awkward c inditions which are likelv to arise after the bill becomes a luw, but : the measure has such good intentions tbat no one lins yet oft'ertd to oppose it.

The above Is a reproduction in spelling, capitalization and wording of an article puhliohed in the Ciiikf last week. From the appearance of it, it would be to tlin advantage of the CntKr to get souip school kid to read his proofs. This interesting nnicle try to siy something alout changed politics in connection with the publication of the court proceedings, but the writer of il does not show very clearly where tho politics come in. lie does, however, bring out with commendable- clearness one point. That is, that this paper, to quote from the Chirk "lakes down th proceeding as they come ff tho reel." We nevercopy the proceeding, however, before they are made a matter of record, signed by the court. Hauling for Trouble. "I've lived in California 20 years and am still bunting for troubles in the way of burns, sore, wound?, boils, cuts, sprains or a case of piles that llucklt-n' Arnica Salve won't quickly cure." writes Charles Walters of Alleghany, Sierra Co.
