E. THRESHER Food and D ru g B . Everyuody will agree with Pro fessor Joseph Remington that the pure-food law is one of the most beneficial pieces of recent legisla tion. Even if, as he says, the com mon adulterations of food and drugs are Dot poisonous, they are none the less exasperating. Wheq a per son pays his money for coffee he ought by good rights to get coffee, and not bread pills. Nor does it make the matter right to insist that the bread pills are not lethal. If the purchaser bad desired that mild Confection he would have uaked for it, and not for coffee.

ComnÙBHioQer, General The story of the New Orleans kidnaping tragedy reads like one of those tales from the heathenish districts of the Old "World where outlawry thieves and neither life nor property is safe. The crime is one of the results of the indiscrimi nate admission into the United States of all kinds of humanity from beyond the seas. There were no “ Black Hands” nor “ Inner Circles’’ in the United States a few years ago, and that they are now here and are kidnaping, murlering and dynamiting innocent people who fail to pay the price for immunity is the fault of our loose immigration laws. The yellow races across the Pacific are not regarded as desire- able timber for American citizen ship, but the “yellowest” heatbeD that ever came out of China or Japan could hardly committ worse crimes than are traced to the “ Black Hand” and the “ Inner Circle.” — Oregonian. --------------- ►<#. ■»— ■■ , Insurance The decision to continue build Agent, and Notary Public.

San Barnardino, Cal., June 26. — One of the moat remarkable sur gical cases ever coming before the profession of this section is just now attracting great interest at the county hospital, where Edward Ortega lies on a cot with his spinal cord severed, a large portion having been taken away, and the cord tied together. Ortega is but fifteen years old. He made a heroic effort to save his sister, two years his junio'r, from tbe attack of two strangers, and in the struggle which followed, the sister grabbed a revolver from bis pocket and in trying to shoot one of the assailants, accidentally wound ed her brother, tbe bullet passing into the boy’s back, fracturing his spinal boDe and severing the cord. Medical Superintendent Strong and Dr. Thomas B. Heard attended him. The entire lower portion of h s body was paralyzed. The wound was probed and fragments of the spinal bone taken away. A surgical opera tion of the most delicate nature was performed, the surgeons cutting away a portion of the bone, and getting the two severed ends of the spinal cord together. Somewhere within the boy’s body the bullet is imbedded. The surgeons dared not probe further, and after necessary preparations for draining the wound, as the healing progressed, they closed up the wound, and though not believ ing that the patient would live twenty-four hours, have now after seven days been forced to admit that his chanoes for recovery are excellent. Portland. June 26.— While mak ing a raid on a Chinese gambling den in thia city today the police made a revolting discovery by ihe finding of a white girl named Alma Churoh whose residence is in Spo kane, who has been held in captive more than three years. According to the girl’s story she was trapped while visitiug a Ghinose restaurant and taken to a barred room which she was never allowed to leave ex cept when heavily guarded. The girl is terror-stricken and al most a nervous wreck. The find ing of the girl winds up a mystery which detectives have been trying to solve for more than a year. At that time they were informed by a reliable person that, while passing Second and Taylor streets, he saw a white woman at a barred window and that she appealed to him to res cue her. Detectives were rushed to tbe house and a search made, but the girl had been secreted in the meantime. A warrant has been issued for the girl’s captor, but up to the present time he has eluded arrest. Port Townsend, June 27.— The enormous forest fire which haB been raging the past few days in tbe Port Discovery Bay region is now believed to be under control, after doing hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage to oedar forests. The fire originated from sparks of a donkey engine and started so quick ly that the engineer was cut off from escape. He saved his life by burying himself to tde neck in the ground and covering bis head with wet sacks. Comrades found him after the fire passed gathering up undestroyed portions of the ma chinery. The timber ia owned by a subsidiary company of the Chi cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail- road. Norway Items. A well attended and enthusiastic meeting of the Western Oregon Lumber Manufacturers’ association was held at Oottage Grove Friday which was attended by a number of outside lumbermen.

There are at leart one thousand fiue apple trees on the place which are begin- ing to bare. A grand opportunty for the right person. Inquire at the H e r a l d office or of R. J. Dean. If timber land values in other countries are anywhere near the same as in Columbia County the plan of having timber land cruised by experts for assesment purposes is likely to p/ove a very profitable scheme for the counties that have undertaken it. There has been same doubt whether the results would justifiy the expense of em ploying cruisers. In Columbia county much of the cruising has been done, and as an illustration of results, it is asserted that one section that has been assessed here tofore at a little less than $9000 has timber enough on it to be worth $64,000 for stumpage. A quarter section, 160 acres, which had been assessed in the past af $1040 is found to count iD timber of the value of 26,000. The cruiser not only makes an estimate of the quantity of timber of the various grades, but also makes an examination and re port upon the soil and topography of the land, so that its value, aside from the standing timber, may be ascertained approximately. In caHe of litigation the expert will be pre pared to back up his figures with evidence o f the value of the timber. Adding to tbe assessment roll large sums like that mentioned, and quite a large number of them, will lighted the tax burden upon .farm ers generally. What is true of Columbia is probably true of other countries that include heavily tim bered laDd. Having ODce exam ined the timber and estimated its quantity, the work will not have to to be done agaiD for a number of years, for the only changes in quan- titp will be those due to sawing logs or burniug timber. With the quantity known the value can be easily determined for each year, ac cording to the market value in each particular community. In a period of five or ten years the orig inal cost of the crushing will not be enough to be worthy of mention, provided the work has been well done.— Oregonian. In San Franoiaco architects drew plans for a large building, putting the estimate of cost at two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. When the bids were received the lowest one was three hundred and fifty thousand dollars or an increased cost of forty per cent. The build ing will not be erected. In Tacoma the architects figured the cost of a building at two hundred thousand dollars. The bids ranged from about two hundred and seventy- five thousand to three hundred and twenty-five thousand. These are extreme cases, but they Bhow the tendency toward abnormal cost and and the consequent decrease in building.— West Coast Lumberman. Under New Management. Geo.
