The old Singer mill at the edge of the bluff near the Seventh street stairs, was burned last Friday morning at about 1 :30 o'clock. The building had not been occupied for many years and while the building was about seven stories high it was of no particular value, all the ma chinery having been taken out and the windows knocked out by "the boys." In fact it was a constant menace to sur rounding property, tor it was almost daily expected that tramps would set fire to it, and had this been done dur the dry season it would undoubtedly have caused other conflagrations. As the old hulk waa considerably watir soaked and its surroundings in the same condition no other damage was done. Pnenmoula Prevented. The gaeatest danger of a cold or an attack of la grippe is of its resulting in pneumonia. How to prevent this will certainly interest almost everyone, es pecially those who have weak lungs. No one need fear that their cold will re sult in pneumenia when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is used. It counteracts any tendency toward pneumonia and will cure a cold in less time than any other treatment. During the epidemics of la grippe a few years ago, many thou sands of bottles of it were used, and in not one single instance did any case re sult in pneumonia so far as we could learn.

Ileld a .Meeting of ihV County Central Cbinmtttbf Last Naturdny. A meeting of the democratic county central committee for Clarkamai county was held in Justice Scuuebel'i office last Saturday afternoon for the purpose ol transacting Important business. J.J, Cooke, chairman, and A. W. CliPtiey, secretary , were at their potitt of duty. It was discovered, however, that soiiiu of the heretofore faithful were uot pres ent and upon Inquiry it was. reported triaA the aWrtt ones had gone over to thereto, or l( hot, their Bryantied C6amg had worn off until they were past recognition by the stalwarts. But a re ported loss of a few from the ranks of the populist adjunct did not dampen the ardour of the governor, the senator and the postmaster. They were there (or the purpose of perpetuating the organization of a party based upon great fundamental principles, an I to see that these principles were pre served inviolate during the interim while the party managers might run the gaunt let of populism, pass through the throes of fusion, and perchance assist In hold ing up another legislature, after which they might return to their first love as the orignial and at all times consistent advocates of the great fundamental principles of democracy. The chairman and secretary of the meeting are said to have been harmo nious and everything went smoothly, as is always the case in such gatherings. It was discovered that several members '0( the committee had enlisted their I efforts in an attempt to sustain the na of the Clatskanie tion's credit by declaring themselves in favor of the gold standard, and when this startling announcement was made the offending members were at once deposed and Pryanizod substitutes placed on tho list. This was perfectly right ami proper since there is a vast difference between a democrat and a Bryanite. The meeting finally settled down to businesa and fixed the dalo for holding the convention on March !9ih ane the primaries on March 12th at 3 p. in. The basis of representation agreed upon Wkn 0ne delegate from each precinct, one for every 20 and one for every fraction of over 10 votes cost for Bryan in 1890.
