G. ADAMS. Editor & Proprietor. LOCAL NEWS Blakesley's new hotel approaches com pletion. It seem3 to be away ahead of country hotels in Oregon. Indeed there aro no hotels in Portland so well planned for convenience this. The arrange ment of.rodms is perfect, aiid will save much labor in running the hotel. The first door as you enter the main hall on the left is the office afcd gentleman's re ception room, aud beyond that the pub lic dining rooul. The first door at the right is the ladies' reception room, and .opening cut of that is the ladies dressing ro'Oiiu Next door in the hall is the bag jjage:rooni, the neztj dining-room for families and ladies On the second floor over tho ladies' rcception-rooni is tlie parlor. The prospect from this is very fine. In front is a view of iiver,moun tains, steamboats and vessels, on the sido it looks down cn the beautiful garden ct 13. F. Oiltner, rich in vines anil flowers. There are 20 bed rooms, wh.ch have been furnished with elegant chambersets, everything about the beds Is new and in the latest style of modern invention. The main hall is 13 x 32 feet. The public dining-room is 17 x 32 feet The office 17 x 20. All the rooms are high and airy, and Veil ventilated. A splended hotel will be a great help to St. Helen. Mr. Blakesloy came Lore a poor wan but by perseverance, energy and the assistance of a riot!e wife, now deceased, and a helpful family lias succeeded irtlift ingjhimself nto a place of popularity niid success that is always on the increase. "We congratulate St. Helen on possess-, ing a man so energetic and public spir ted. He has had great faith in the future of this part of the country, and lias been long ireaded cnorgh to take the tide at the ill. On Monday vc went with our family to Portland oii the Lritca Mason. We had a. very pleasant time. Mrs. Dr. Davis, Miss Bella Copeland, a Mr. Mon roe and wifej bound for Mexico, a Mr. Oaufield, a Mr. Barnes a South Caroli nian, from Spartanburg, Zacheriah Creigh of Salem, and others were on the boat We got up in pretty good season, and obtained a good double room at the Esmond, lix Ike evening we called at tho Dancing Hail at corner of Second and Salmon Streets. Mr. W. D. Palmer and family have rooms in the same block with the Dancing Hall, where he teaches dancing in the evening and his wife in the day time. He has bought for $500 the right of Oregon and W. T. to Frazter's rrew method of teaching dancing. lie will soon send out agents all cvrr the 'country. I Tad a splendid breakfast at the Esmond and returned on the Lucea Mason. Mrs. Tyszkiewicz and little dafthter Beat r?en v.vro rm u v j board when wo came back. Beatrice is ' a charming rhild. W e ran an independent newspaper. We do not object to a man if he is a Republican or Democrat, but like all true men we despise a hypocrite. Gleiv dye to Democrats pretends to be a Dem ocrat of the purest-strained type, and to Itopublicans a Republican. Even the trhildmi when he taught at Deer Island hotfeed his appeared elated when in the late wot the Union arms were defeated or the American in the Revolutionary war, at least so they reported to their parents. This is yotrr "thorough-bred Republican trotted "out by the Muckles to freeze out an old soldier with a bul let in his body. Surely very Confed erate or Union soldier must hate this pocket-edition of Benedict -Arnold who is the figure-head of a set cf pcopfe "Whose only politics is a U. S. Dollar with a chicken on it, as the Chinaman Bays. Perhaps the Muckles are getting ready to whop 'over, thinking the next Administration may be Democratic. They may get left. Let 'em whop ! The. island in the Merri'rioc River where Mr, Tray used to live is now owned by Richard SpofFord who ry.afi ied Maria Prescott, the celebrated authoress. The former owner was the uncle of S. L. Lovell, and there Mr. Lovell spent man ly happy days in Ms childhood. This is above the city of Newburyport, Mass, On tl ' T(aA t.n Ampdlinrv A ftnin bridge connects the island with opposite isides'of the river. IE. J. Northrup whe so enfdrtunatcly met his 'death was a brother-in-law of Moses McN ainee. He was one of the best men in Portland and respected by the universal public to hear of his un timely fate. Mrs. W. C. King, of Salem has writ ten an excellent letter to the Band of 3Iope. Mrs. Mary li Adams wifo Of 'Major E. CJ-. Adams was educated at the Congre gationalist Academy at South Berwick Maine, and the N. II. Conference Seminary and Female Cjollegc ai San born ton Bridge, X. H. Sh6 was iiistructr e.l in painting and various ofp.amcntal 'jrahches by MissPhabe Bailey of Tort land Maine; in vocal music by Messrs' D. W. and A. Spencer, Chorister, and Organist in the if. E. Church at Ber wick Me.; on the piano by Miss Mary Ladd, now wife of Banker Steel in Port land, Oregon; t-!le Mioses Annie, and Mary Thompson, Organists in the Con gregational isfc and Catrimst Baptist, churches a.

The son was a grad uate of the New England Conservatory of Music Boston, Mass. : Gleudye .says we ought to be horse whipped. We should like to see him attempt that .JSb. We would mingle them punch eyes of liisen ! into one. That field was pvM- for any way if it was Dart's. They didn't get the use of it for abusig Dart. We saw one of the Artist Co. pay a number of dollars to Bill Mcckle in G. W. McBride's store and Bill had such a Shylock look on his face we thought it was some gouge game operation. The way iu which the Muckles lisrd J. H. Piatt was small, exceedingly small. After his return from Cedar Mountain Mill, he let ids time run on, without a settlement and Ihey gave him but $1.92 a day when formerly they paid him 82.00 They set their own price. Wash. Muck le had agreed to let him have the house at the shipyard for i?3.50 per month. At settlement he charged him $1.00. Yea and verily we should like 'to see anybody the Muckles wouldn't skin if they had a chance. ; On Sunday J. II. Alexander was made the happy father of a bouncing bojT. He went for Mrs. Perry who was at Mr. Frank Hoyt's on a similar errand where another boy had put in an ap pearance. When he got back Dr. Stew art had brought in a basket a young squaller of powerful lungs, and Mr. A I exarrder was left. All is well that ends Well Mr. James Bacon has had some large photographs of his father, Jesse Bacon taken by Davidson in Portland. They are painted and finished in artistic style. Each child with filial atVectiou has se cured a ccpy of Ihe author of their be ing. Mr. Jesse Bacon is a cousin of the celebrated Divine of Connecticut, Dr. Leonard Dacon of New Haven. At the late term of Court but one in Clackamas County there were 1 I indict ments and 11 convictions. This last term there was not a single indict ment The vigorous action of the Pros ecuting Attorney must gain much of the credit of this. There seems to have been a quietus set on crime at least for a time. Met on tho boat Mr. J. M. Forbes, merchant at JEtna. He owns ninety acres at the head of navigation on Lew is River, aud is doing a thriving busi ness in the mercantile line. He will soon lay out a town. Other traders threatened to "freeze biin out, but he clon'l freeze 'worth a cent an' more than Major Adam?. There, was a big excitement on Tues day among tho Muckle crowd. The Grand Jt?ry in a body went down to Muckles' store, it was reported to exam inc their scales, but in reality to exam ine tlie County Treasurer Cox's books. They found Cox all right, after a rigid examination. Nothing like a clean rec ord. Hon. S. L Lovell lost much wheat, grain, and hay by the winter freshet in Nehalem Valley. He also lost all the old family silver of the Lovell family, ancient heirlooms, in the lire that burned up the store of David West at Westport. The silver plate was two or three hundred years old, r.nd very mas sive. ' ; Dr. Mendtnhall testified as an expert in fvlato homicide case at Hillsboro. He swore to practising in St. Helen. The only patient he had here was Joe Camp bell's dog to whom he administered a close of cold pison. He left between twoays t6 escape a writ Such was his brilliant history in Columbia Coun- ty. . j Jud;re Shattuck came down from Port lornd on Tuesday. He is here to attend to the business of Mrs. F. F. Victor, who will sue Judge Lancaster aud Davis for a partition of her rights in the tfcwn site of St Helen. The Judge is an intelligent' lawyer, and able to straight en out any legal tangle. j The town had a first class small pox scare.

Johnny Bull must give us a permft Columbia County must be considered a little old British Colony to suit the Muckles. The Muckles, wo understand, are building a mist-condenser about as big as a hen-coop on Cowlitz Street. There will be machinery to cotvlatfse telegrams, Glendye's brains will bo so condensed, it will take one of Lord Ross' most pow erful telescopes to detect them. . Meussdorfler is tho best hatter in !
