Prescott, Surveyor -St. Helens Frank Sherwood. Coroner Rainier CITY MATTERS Notices are postal calling for a city election to be held April 5th. The no tice states that all persons who shall have resided in St. Helens thirty day next proceeding the election are entitled to vote. The Mist has looked up the Jaw on this subject and thinks this is a mistake. Moreover, we are of the opin ion that the present acting officesa were never legally elected and that their official acts are, to say the least, of doubtful validity. The latest amend ment to the charter upon this enbject is fonnd in House bill 1ST, page -HO of the Laws of 1S93, section i, as follows : 4 The Board of Common Council sball have a Ixiok for the registration of voters prepared and arranged and kept bv the recorder, and shall by ordinance nrescribe laws, rules and regulation for the registering of the legal voters of said citv; provulea, saw registration book shall be closed six months before any general election of said city, after having been kept open in the recorder's office not lew than thirty days before the beginning of said six months; ana pro vided farther, that no person shall be an elector of said city who is not at the time a citizen and resident ol said city, actual, bona fide and tn good faith, and has been for six months next before the election, and who has registered as this act has, and as the board of trustee" shall have, provided, and no one shall be deemed n citizen or said city on account of bis washing or place of sleeping beinu there.bnt his actual home must be there; and all laws or parts of laws in conflict with this section are hereby expressly repealed. If the Mist's view is correct it is high time au atteuupt was made to do things in a legal manner. Large property in terests are becoming involved, and the acts of the council should ne of undoubt ed legality. Can a set of officers elected in direct violation of the law bind the city by any of their acts? WHO CREATED THE .NORMALS Of course the Oregonian attempts to place (be blame for the fool acts of the late Legislature upon statement No. 1 members and the direct primary sys tem. It does this without any analysis of the vote or any attempt to show that opponents of the direct primary were any nearer safe and sane than its friends. To one who knows the history of past legislatures its statements seem farcical. The normals, with the exception of the one at Monmouth, should be abolished, but they owe their existence directly to the logrolling system in which the members of the Multnomah delegation, under the control of Senator Simon, were past masters. The editor of the Oregonian undoubtedly retn-'tnbers. the session of 18!(9. The Multnomah dele gation went to Salem pledged to kill the State Board of Agriculture and abol ish the State lair, preliminary of course to taking the Fair to 1'ortland. At the same session Mr. Simon introduced bis famous tax collector bill, which would have done away with the publi cation of the tax list and given him more power by the naming of a number of deputies. Between the extra session and the regular the friends of alem made a deal with tin edocational insti tutions, and at the regular session Mr. Simon found that in order to pass his bill he must call his dugsoffon the State Fair proposition, and this was promptly done, but the deal with the normals held good and the extra rinrmulu u.n. i created at that session, with the Senate ! under the absolute control of Hon . .Jo- nr.

Wbeti it lirst paseed the House iu order to secure iis reconsideration the Oregonian agreed to ueaee its opposition to the State Fair provided the .Marion countv deletriition uuuld vni t,.r . sideration wlneh Ihey did, and the ,jr- ; cgonian deltveled the goods."

Doc) took hit recently made bride nee Shirley Wood with him, and the other boys left their very sad maidens here in the valley. We shall expect them to return for a pur pose in the near future. Joe Hlggenbotham, of Hillsboro, is here, towing grain and rebuilding fence along Rock Creek and the Nehalem, on the Baker farm. The high water in January did Mr. Higgenbotham, as well as others in the Xebaletn Valley, a great deal of damage Don't forget the city caucus next Monday night and the city election on Monday, April 5th. Johu Pringle, Sr., returned from Portland last week, where he had been called by a large real estate firm to take a partnership with them, but Mr Priugle says there was too much outside work for a man seventy-five years old, so he declined the offer. C. A. Mills is the proud father of a new-bov since Sunday night. Tuis is the third son for Teck and wife. Miss Ethel Weed has closed her school at Braunsport and Is now visiting her brother Oscar and Sistei Gertrude, who are teaching at Haxel Dale, near Clats kanie.

Mrs. Emmons is to go to Mist after her school closes in the Wilkinson dis trict, in about five weeks, to teach the school there during the summer. Mrs. Keasey will visit here with the home folks and at home witb her brother Josh and sister Julia during the summer. Dr O. E. Hiatt and Joe KeeJ went out to Portland Monday of last week. The doctor took three of the fine deer heads he bad recently mounted, two of which be had sold to a man in Salem for f 45. Tell Soule, wbo with his father and mother moved out to Gaston early in the winter, came into the valley for a short visit with relatives and friends here aturday last. Tell says they are all well pleased and are getting along splen didly. The forty he boagbt for $05 per sere a few months ago he has refused $!00per acre for. Come again, Tell. The people here are alwajs glad to see you. V. T. Hatfield, who went to Portland March 3d returned again last week. His old enemy, rheumatism, got hold of him again, so be thinks he will stay in the Xehalem now until it is really warm weather. In the meantime if there are people hereabouts who would like any thing in the picture line he would be pleased to have them call. He it an expert photographer for anything from a pet dog or a crying baby to a fine landscape view. E. R. Ttaroop and C. C.
