He limy provide for the poor in his will, but how is that going to help those that depend on his oil for fuel, which lie is raising the price of every week or so' T here is considerable inqury US to whether the black sands near Bandon will pay for mining. California capitalists who have a new machine to precess this sand have written to find out the location of these sands and for any information about them. We understand that Simon Lane and Col. Lane bad an active mine going in 18K1 that, paid them fairly well, running about on« dollar to th« ton. Ttmre is plonty of th« black sand in our vicinity, on« place back of Ran dolph that I hih never been worked to our knowledge, another place 3 miles east of Bandon, and still another north about G or 7 miles. D. F. Per- kins worked in the black sands at Whiskey Run in IS51, but although he found it profitable, found it very- hard to get at on account of the surf. L. H. Perkins of Quartz, Cal, wrote to hie father J. M. Perkins, that a company at that place is willing to put in modern machinery and com mence active operations if they get any encouragement in the enterprise. It is said that this is a reliable com pany and their machinery is such that will enable them to make a sue cess of the milling whereas several have failed. Up to the Assessor. The bouse did its duty by passing the Beals liili to compel owners of timber land to furnish a cruise of tli«*ir timber to the assessor. but the Senate, which appears to have been organized in the interest of the tax «lodging capitalists and franchise grabbers, defeated the measure, as they did many other excellent bills i passed l’\ the house. Now it is up to the assessor. He has Imd his salary raised to a decent figure, ami he can very easily dem onstrate io the people that he deserved the raise by compelling the timber owners to pay something like a just tax upon their holdings, At present the highest assessment is $14 per acre. Some of it is worth $1,000 per acre and, Mr. Laws admits that this is only guess work, as lie has no means of knowing the true value of land, and the owners persistently re fuse to show their cruise. There is but one thing for the assessor to do and that is to guess higher. Assess the timber land al such a figure that the owners will be compelled to make its true value known in order to se cure a reduction. We believe Mr. Laws will do this. The timber own ers have defrauded Columbia county enough tax money, if put into a fund for that purpose, to pay the salaries of its officials for all time to come. There is no reason why they should he permitted to escape paying jnst share of the burden. They are taking the value off th«» land and when they have delimit'd it they will move to Cortland and live in ease upon the money made in Columbia county Generation after generation of farm ors build up the country..but the timber owner is not a genuine home maker, but a get rich «piick speculator who can's for nothing but his own private gain. a*i<l as far as possible, Compel th«» genuine settlor to foot the bill. The ( trogoli M ist. all Presidential Reserve« are ancua- stitiMiuual. The next Congress it is to lie hop'd, will shake our bull dog President loo-'e from his grip ou our public domain, but it is a long time to wait au<l business sufTers in the meanwhile. At present we do not feel like treating the question at length, fearing that we are not suf ficiently well informed, ami that our indignation might affect impartial judgement. Curry county is bit bard, and she will have a bard time to maintain her organization if the black shadow of the Reserve is not removed.- Port Orford Tribune. W illiam T yndai . i who represented the Fourteenth District of Missouri in Congress lias gone home after two years at the Capital with eleven thousand dollars which lie has saved from his salary and perquisites since his election. This’fact is an un answerable refutation of the state merit of Senator Beveridge that a Congressman cannot live on a salary of five thousand a year in the Capital, that, in fact, “thirty thousand dollars a year is « very ordinary outlay*' for keeping up an establishment here. Mr. Beveridge has had a nightmare in which he fancied only millionaires could afford to run the Government ami be put the obsession in black and white and sent it to Appletons maga zine. Now Mr. Tyndall lias arisen to prove that not only can a man live on five thousand a year, with clerk salary of tift<s>n hundred or morn and other perquisites |>nt lie can save a nice little fortune out of it bosid<»a. Of course Mr. Tyndall's case is an ex treme one. He did not wear seventy dollar frock coats ns Mr. Beveridge ----------------------- does and bo did not wear a dress suit for dinner.

Strike at Marshfield. MRS. SARAH CÜBTBLLO. The employes of I lie» sash and door factory are on a strike. About one hundred and twentyfive, including the carpenters and the inside men, are out and the mill is practical!\ tied np. This means much to the whole Coos bay country at this par ticular time. The North Bend sash and door factory is th« only plant of the kind in this locality, and every building or house which is being erected, needs in its construction the product of the factory. Already some work threatens to be stopped because of the impossiblity to secure the needed material from t lie sash and door factory. A continuation of the strike without a settlement means eventually, in fact in a short time, the absolute paralization of the building on Coos bay. There is in course of construction both at Marshfield and North Bend houses and buildings which will represent trie investment of thousands of dollars. The men who nre striking have a grievance. They want a day of one hour less. This not being granted they stopped work. The men have conducted themselves in a creditable manner and have as a body done nothing since going out for which they should be censured. Th« com pany is likewise firm in the belief of the fairness of its position. But the merits of the case on either side do not enter into the question. Be the men right or not. tlie company fair or unjust, a long drawn out strike will bring great injury to Coos Bay. no matter which side is at fault —Times. West Bandon CLARENCE Y. Itandon.
