County Official Paper We are iroinir to change our name. Hereafter thia paper will be called "The St. Helens Mist" instead of "The Oregon Mist." We make this change for several reasons, one of them being that we are proud of our home city. St. Helens Is the best town In Oregon and we want the name of the city to appear In our heading. The word "Oregon" as applied to this paper heretofore does not mean much, so we have mae the change In the heading. We are preparing to improve our plant with new machinery and tools no that wr will have a plant second to none. We are going to keep on improving the paper as fast as possible. In addition to the full page of St. Helens ncw9, ar. rangements are under way to print a full page of new9 from various parts of the county. It will be not only a St. Helens paper but will be a Columbia County paper printed and published at St. Helens, the county seat. Dur ing the year of 1912 we have en deavored to keep pace with the times in this Community and have made many improvements. We have given the news as we found it. On all matters of public con cern we have passed an opinion, editorially, and will continue to do so, having due regard and re spect for the opinions of others. Our aim has lx-cn to give the news, advertise this section of the country, St. Helens in par ticular, and conduct a live, read able paper for all classes. If the efforts have met with the ap proval of the readers we ask a continuance of the liberal patron age heretofore given us.

Laboring people of all classes have banded together to aid each other in the struggle for life and living wages. The pri mary object of organized labor is worthy the vmu who organized the unions and haf done so much to make them a power to be reckoned with. No one doubts the sincerity of purpose of the ordinary union man, yet the crimes that are committed in the name of organized labor is doing more to weaken and influence for good they may have than years of lawful and Jegitimate work can remedy. Think of 3S men out of 10 being convicted in the United States for dynamiting Think of the great crimes, mur der, arson and destruction of property committed by men higr in the councils of organized labor and in the name of organized labor. If thai method is pursued much longer Unionism will be a thing of the past. When the ordinary union men will permit a few ngitatots and outlaws to run their affairs and commit crimes in their names it is high time that new leaders were se lected and that great care be used In their selection. After the elections have been made greater care should be used in watching their every movement and the first one who undertakes to commit a crime in the name of labor must bo kicked out and punished. It is up to the labor Organizations to clean house and keep it clean. irface pavement.

According to Dr. Kerr, of the Oregon Agricultural College, the work of that institution should 1m demonstrated among the farmers, giving them, at their homes, the pport unity of seeing the very latest methods of agriculture. All in terests will work together to sup ply this need. A number of young people, boys ami girls, are niHking a practice of loafing in the St. Helens postotlice obby and during the ahsenco of the iHMlotlice emuloyees devote their time to scribbling on ollieial mat- ter, also on calendars and other mat ter placed there for convenience 01 the nuhlic. and mutilating aim de stroying nny other postotlice prop erty to which they find access. This must be stopped and stopped ai once. Actions of this kind will positively not bo tolerated. The city marshal has been Instructed to make arrests of such parties. The United States postal authorities will be notified of any further attempts of this nature, and as fair warning has been given, no leniency can be expected. The postofViee lobby is not intended aa a congregating place for idlers, and such parties are warned r'"st using it for this ling matter through "Postmaster" by industries movement. An attractive program has been arranged for the second Oregon Irri gation Congress to be held in Port land January l-10-11. The list of sK'akers includes agricultural and irrigation exjerts, many of them of national reputation. Officials of the reclamation service and railroad presidents are listed for talks, but not less interesting will be the actual experiences of irrigation farmers.
