It is up to the Oregon Logislatun to
incorporate Hie town o( Houlton.
The duty of the lrgislature ia,
Dot to investigate or f pond ti.r.e or
money in fusing with and financ
ing a loosing deal, but to r? peal so
much of the exhistinj law as is
necessary, and itself electa Master
Fish Warden. That said warden
be responsible to the legislature
itself and report to it, and ltot to a
ccmi&ioa whose chief end is pol
itics. It is sale to say that no state in
th Union, except Oregon, enjoys
the unique distinction of having
half of her delegation in congress
tinder indictment, and half ot the
other half under official investiga
' lion. What a spectacle we must
now present to the people of other ;
Mates? hat a subject for the
prayers of those charitably in
clined. What an object of con
tempt and disdain to the rigidly
honest, be he puritan or cavalier?
At the beginning of the assessment
work this year we were advised that all
nperty would bo raised in value. AVe
tot, this statement with faith and favor,
bet expressed our doubts about the
possibility of an equitable assessment
being made. A few comparisons- and
the people can draw their own conclu
sions. Here is School District No. o!,
in which is located the town of Houl
ton, with three general stores, two sa
loons, two hotels and a barbershop, and
territory equal in size to the city limits
of the City of Clatskanie, where there
are seven general stores, a drug store,
photograph gallery, four saloons, n
- livery stable, three town halls, a saw
null, a lawyer's office, twobutchershops
and two bartwrshops.. Houlton proper
ty is assessed at H,000, while the city
f Clatskanie, with all its business, and
Jive ' residences that -ost over S-VXX)
each, is assessed at a trifle over $41,000.
Then to make an individual comparison.
Last vear the Rainier Gazette w as as
eased H00. This year at o75. Last
year the Clatskanie Chief was assessed
$350. This year it is the, same. Last
year the Oregon Mist was assessed 1100.
This" year 433. Two years ago the
Pittsburg Sentinel plant, now the Col
cubliBegisteb, was assessed $120. Last
year sot at all, but this year, although
redirected from a hen roost after the
first of March, it is assessed at f15.
nnat is true ot tne printing business is
true of every other- so far as we have
investigated. To escape taxation a man
should be a resident of Clatskanie, or
else he must belong to the Republican
ring of St. Helens. Now as a
matter of
fact we tried last spring to bny the
Clatskanie Chief or the Oregon Mist,
and the proprietors refused to take less
then $2000 each for their plant. The
Caiette plant waa- sold for $2000. We
are not kicking about our assessment!
' being too bigh, but it certiinly should
be no higher than that of the Chief or
Mist, both old established papers. But
we can pay our taxes, especially if busi
ness continues as good as it is at pres
ent. a r m j

which Portland uses to pave its streets.
Rainier w ill exhibit the products of its
sash and door and soup factories, and it
is hoped there w ill be a good exhibit of
creamery products, which are second to
none in the state or elsewhere.
It is also intended to have a photo
graphic exhibit, consisting of -too large
views from tho logging camps of the
county, showing the processes of lum
bering, from the felling of tho treo in
the forest to placing the finished pro-
duct aboard the vessel. Thts uill l,

tor a very complete idea of the manner
in which this great industry is con
ducted. No especial attempt w ill be made to
have a display of the agricultural and
horticultural products of li04. but spe
cial pains w ill bo taken with the crop of
190.1, and as fast as it matures samples
of the best vegetables, fruits, grains and
grasses w ill be placed in the display. It
is also understood that, while fruit w ill
uot be given away indiscriminately,
there will bo enough on hand every day
after the new crop is available to tickle
the palates of genuine inquirers.
The work of organization has just be
gun and will be vigorously pushed.
Owing to Columbia county's proximity
to Portland and the numerous vehicles
of transportation, it will be compara
tively easy for this county to keep its
exhibit of agricultural and horticultural
products constantly replenished. There
