As a matter of fart it would per haps lx n fcood idea t leave nil levying jtower in the hands of the County Court or in a special board for that purjose. composed of men who w ould make a study of the conditions in the whole county and make the levy accord ing to needs instead of servir-K some sjiecial or jiersonal interest. To this cnuse can le attributed, to a large extent, the hik'h rate of taxation in this county.

Mr. Selling is a successful business man in Portland and has a w ide acquain tance all over the State. He has served in the State Senate from Multnomah County, and was President of the Senate at the P.Hl session. By virtue of that ollice he w as the acting Covernor of the State for a few hours be fore Cov. West was inaugurated. As President of the Senate he made a good record always voting as he deemed Ix-st and not with any particular fet of men all tho way through, thus demonstrating his freedom from political factions. lis bnincss aurcess and legislative experience eminently tit him for the p .sition of United States Senator and if Jonathan Bourne can be defeated Ben Selling can do it. However this may be, Judge Bowell of l.n.ll..ton must not be overlook ed in this fight for he is in it to stay and will have strong sup port from certain portions 01 Eastern Oregon. He is also a man well qualified for the po sition and his candidacy and the candidacy of Mr. Selling will certainly conflict to such an ex tent that Jonathan Bourne is not likely to be displaced by cither of them. For the past two years it has j been rumored that a ship yard would U- established in St. Hel ens and now that rumor has be-j come a reality. The McCormick l.umlter Co. and St. Helens Mill Co. have already begun work on the yards and it will be in active ox ration within a few weeks. What this means to St. Helens can best be judged whtn it is known that from M to T.jskilltd men will be working continuous-, ly there and thousands of feet of lumber w ill be used in the con struction of fhips. Then tie building of ships will necessarily bring to St. Helens ot her indus-i tries which go with an enterprise ; of that kind. For instance, ma chine shops and engine works. ! The already large pay roll for labor in St. Helens will be in creased about $10,Mi0 per month by the ship yards alone and other things which are sure to follow will bring the St. Helens pay j roll up close to ?KH.(Ht) per month. A nice sum to bo paid out each month for labor in a. city with les than 1 "() people. ' I'OKS.M.K New f'O egg Cycle in-' euhalor. 1 Mi. (!. J. Lindiihl. Warren.
