The Ne haletii'spopulatlnu lias decreaed rapidly during the past lew years and il II con tinues al the name rate lor five more there will not be aay rettlers left in the beautiful valley. The whole country is a sad tale of the control of the timber land speculators. For one house that is inhabited there are tour that are not, settler having told their land and left. And now it is from these same pecula tor that the future prospeiity of the country must come. Iiventualiy iney will put in a raiboiid to take out tneir timl-cr, proUbly erect a mill at ome ooint in the valley, and make it a coun try that will be sought after instead of run away from. L,it Sunday tlie Liven of clean out door sport had an opportunity to fee a fine eabibit'oli of the national game oi I'.nghind and Scotland.

McCormick Company and associate of San Frauciaco nur- chased tlie timber, logged-olf lands, rail- roan ana camp equipment of C. C.

The company has ten miles of logging railroad, nine donkey engines. two 40-ton Shay locomotives sod thirtv- rigging truck. The total consider lion was in the neighborhood of half a million dollars. With the river front that eoes with this purchase the Chas. It. McCormick Company now have a frontage on thi Columbia Kiver and the Willamette Slough of three miles ami a half, with an average depth ol thirty feet of water- In a short tuua thev will put in a snur from their railroad and give the city connection with the transcontinenal lines This will make Si. Helen, tha most desirable town lu the country lor the operation of factories With river and rail connection and its desirable lo cation, the future for the old town is certainly bright. The Hgging operations will be carried on under the name of the St. Helens Timber Company, and work at the camp will continue along the same line as in the past. C. C. Matn has been re tained as manager an. will baechaige. Last Monday Game Warden Floeter and a companion in the ciudIov of the State ol Oregon came into town with ieorge liieloh and son Chester in cu- ody, charging tin in with having in their possesion a deer the sex of which they had disguised, all of which is ferninst tho peace and dignity and in violation of the laws of the State of Ore gon. And back ol this Iber is a pretty good little story. Tho Itielohs acre hunting in company with Peter Lou- iguont of Scappoote, and when they eft the Scappoose country and went into the Nehalem Fred Floeter thought it would be a good idea fo. hi in to go over the mountains, too. When Fred got into the valley and found that Pete and his companion had gone duwn the river he thought tli-elk around Saddle Mount ain were wh.i. t.iey were after, and as it is the 1 i-ed season on elk Fred hit it up for the lower Nehalem. Hut the hunters had no notion of g ling so far away, and when they got to Mist they backtracked across the burn nil I returned to Ver nonia, where we are informed that they enjoyed several days of good hunting while Floeter wms wearing out shoe leather around Middle Mountain. But altera lew day ;ent in fruitless search Fred, who is the 1 vest (iame Warden in the State ol Oregon, hustled back up the river and met the Itielohs on their way out ol t'"- valley. When brought before .t'istice V.'atkins tiny were released on il.t-ir putting up a car'i bind of f 1 00, and the rase aas set for Wednesday, but on ou Wednesday it w:is igiin postponed. SCAPPOOSE CORRESPONDNCE. At the home of the bride's parents in Scappoore, on Wednesday, October 19, 1910, at 4:30 p. m., Miss Lucy L. Leon ard, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs James Leonard, and John 0. Diveni of lloulton, were united lu marriage by Rev. J. Morgan Lewis. Only iramedia'e relative were present. In the evening a crowd of their friends tendered them an old time serenade. Refreshments were served, after which tney decried wishing the couple a h ug and happy man I d life. HEAVY SHIPPING THIS WEEK. St. Helena is certainly some seaport these days, and a stranger getting in this week and seeing nothing but the ship aould think that the town must be 1'ortlau 1. The payroll for loading the ship that are now here amount to about -1J0 a day, which nearly all foe into the regular avenues of trade In St. Helen The schooner George K. Billings will leavj here about the first ol neat week with a cargo of 1,500,000 of fir lumber for Melho ir.ie, Australia. The tchooner Alvena will leave here at about the sii.b time a ith 1,000,000 feet for South ru Ca'.fornia ports. The schooner King Cyrus will take a partial cargo, consisting of 700,000 eet of ties, from the noiit. The I'.ritir-b ship Claverdon is transfer inga partial cargo of California redwood from the steam schooner Nehalem. The San Francisco Eiaininer has the follow ing to say of the Nehalem's cargo of red woo J. One ol the largest and most valuable cargoes of red.oai lumher exported from Humboldt ltay in the last seven years, bound to South Abica, will be taken on the Hammond Company steam er Nebalein, to be delivered in the Co lumbia river to ships that will carry it to II dest. nation. The Nebalein i now taking on about 600,000 feet of rough clear an I rough teh-cted redwood lum ber, or, more exactly, 470,000 feet in timbers from 10 te Z leet long, and from 2x12 inches, cross section, to 20x20 inches. The total value of the cargo i placed at approximately f ltf.OOO. Water Iront men are n jw wondering whether or rot tlie ship wiil be cleared at this port or fiom the Columbia river. All are of the opinion that Humboldt bsy should receive the credit of this ship ment in the records ol the cuntoin house. The last big shipment of redwood for South Africa was made on the Oeriimn bark Henry, March, 1113, carrying 034,. 000 feet of lumber, and on the bark Oxo, Fehiuary, ltsj.'l, carrying 570,000 feet. These were full cargoes, the vessels being small. The Claverdon will also take 1,000,000 feet of fir from the St. Helens Mill Com pany for South Africa. The Claverdon carries 2,500,000. The .team schooner Yellowstone of the McCormick Line came intojhe river snd will take some HO0.000 feet to Cali fornia ports. Owing to shortage in dock room it will have to get its load some where else on the river, probably at Rainier. ST. HELENS SCHOOL NEWS. Constance Adams has been promoted to the Third grade.
