in the river, aud the booming of big guns reverberates
from the wharves to the groundsof the Lwis and Clark
Exposition. The ships at anchor in the harbor, which
compose part of the United States Government magnif
icient display at the Coast Fair, are the protected cruis
ers Boston and Chicago, and the torpedo destoyer Per
ry. They remain indefinitely, possibly for the whole
Exposition period, and certainly for several weeks.
Leading exponents'of va: i us creeds will speak at
the Sunday services at Lewis and Clark Exposition,
which are held in the Auditorium, at f air each Sun
day afternoon. The list of those who will preach
during the Exposition includes some of the !xst known
divines from all parts of the country, and assures the
rwpularity of the services. On Sunday the admission
io the grounds has been reduced from fifty to twenty
five cents. The gates are opened at noon, and the ex
hibit palaces are open until six o'clock. The amuse
ment features on the Trail are not permitted to run.
The Columbia County exhibit is not what it ought
to le, but it is just what the people has nude it They
live passively sanctioned the acts of the commissioners
in the appointment cf the gentleman who has charge of
mr exhibit and they have accepted without a murmur
or protest the little work that has been done. Now it
is a well known fact that Colnmbia County is not pre
pared to compete with the counties that have had agri
cultural and horticultural exhibits s t the fair. But
with a man or woman at the back of our exhibit we
can yet have a much better exhibit than we now haye,
and may in the near future excel all other counties in
quality of our products if not in quantity. Any article
left at this office or at the Mist office will be taken up
to the Fair and placed on exhibition free of charge.
I'rlng in your c 10'ce pio ucts and let us show the world
what our country produces.
raw material into finished products.
While each section has some one or more indus
tries, Houlton has a large stave factory that employs
ab the way from (") to H ) hands, who spend a portion
of their wages among the several business houses in the
town. So whiie Houlton is supplied, the same condi
tions are found at Ooble, Rainier, Mayger and Clatska
nie. All have one or more enterprises that puts its
product into' the market, the loats and rail shipment
continuing throughout the year, giving employment to
numerous willing hands.
Rainier aud Clatskanie are favorite t nvns and ,
have good cause to feel satisfied with existing cendi-
tions. What is true of Rainier is true of Clatskanie,
when it comes to milis that manufacture the timler iu
iutc commodities. It is a pay roll that helps a town.
It is good roads that brings the. farmer to town, who
trades with his heme 'merchant.-'-' Our merchant and
business men are of the live and let live class, selling
as cheap or cheaper than the same goods can be pur

tured product to be shipped, and attest to the correct
ness of our assertion that the mills are busy at work,
lx)th in and outside of the several towns. All is activ
ity aud hustle, and there is no excuse for seeing idle
men when we take into consideration the many lines or
avenues that require extra help that have sprung up;
and in which one with a little grit or back bone and
pnsh can make himself useful. The advantages to let
ter cne's self ore much more in evidence here than in
eastern states, where everything is overdone where it
is so easy to acquire a little piece of ground and raise
something and make a start in life. The scenery, the
climate, water, shipping facilities, society, , churches
and schools are all here. Come and make us your
friends, and look us over from one end of the county
to the other. The latch string hangs out.
