Mr. Ual siger bas faith In the prosperous fu ture for White Salmon and he Is lint alone on his Ideas, as most White Sal- monites are enthusiastic in this re gard. White Salmon Is a pretty warm place on a hot day. There Is one place however, whore you can be made cool. We refor to the thirst uonoing factory of II. K. Ilownian & Co., where you can obtain the cup that neither chiers nor ineoriaies, but refreshes. After a long drive over the country roads one of those long cool life sa ers is a boon to mankind. During his trip to White Saluiou the ( i lacier mau had a heart-to-heart talk with our correspondent, who has been nouleotiug his duty somewtiat latelv. Although he Is a busy man, he assures us that he will do better in the future and promises to keep us informed of the di lugs in the bill oitv. If von have anything of Inter est In the way ot news don't keep it to yourself. We cau tell ic to more people than you can, tiesuns you won't have to wear out your voice. .Inst whisper it In the ear of our cor respondent, 11. Fields. While at White Salmon recently tbe (llacior man was shaved In the print ing olllce there a very good srave too, by the way. This isn't the drat time however that tho Ulaciei man has lieeu shaved in a prntlng ofllce, having been iu the business ost of his ill'e he has been getting shaved there pretty regularly not however, w'th a razor. Somebody conies in al- must evoiv dav with the iiiteution of ehnvini; him and uond many succeed in doing it. We wouldn't be surprlsd if Kilitoi Cinder had been shaved a few times this way himself. W. W. Kiiukln, a former Hood Hiv- er resident, and who was at liingen until the right-of-way of the railroad took tho site on which his stable was located. Is now in the livery business at White Salmon. His place of liusi lies is opposite the now Culburn hotel for which he meets the boats. He also has a coutiact for hauling gravel for the railroad Biid has several teams working In the vicinity of llingeu. coat of paint, Mrs. Hansen, proprie tor of the Maple Leaf hotel, bus bought two lots In the center of the proposed town and expects to build a hotel wbiob will be morn modern and accommodate a greater number of guests thau the present one. Judge liyrkett, who in company with hie wife has been on au extended trip to Washington, 1. C, returned last wee!.. Mis. B.ukett will return after. .

Through ISitiKon the new road bought 4,r00 feet of right uf-way )0 tut wide. On tliis the railroad will lav side tracks and erect a station. With a natural town site surrounding the railroad it Is iueviULle that a town of no mean prr.i nrlious will spring up at this point, lu fact it is said by those who know, tbat tnere Is no spot on the line of the new road that is so well adapted to the building of a town. With this in view, it is very evident why A. If. Upright, who bought considerable of the right-of- way for the new road In this neigh borhood, purchased the store proper ty of F. L. 1 nomas. The purchase In cluded three lots along side the store, wbiob are no wui tli ;iOU a piece. Mr. Upright paid tl,7U) for tbo property. The saying that "eveiytbing comes to him who waits" is exemplified lu tbe life of Their. Suksdurf, of liingen.

As we passed on down the Old Columbia 1 thought what tali - she could tell if only she bad the gift of speech ! What deeds of bravery have been performed in the saving of lite.

Tbe gates are worked or moved by hydraulic power and seem to be just as easy gu lug to sleep in an arm chai. . We pass ou through tbe rapids, the only place where it seems dangerous to me, but the oaptain of tbe boat knows tbe course to take. We pass on and as we look out on either side there are mountains most majestio and grand to look upon, and we are leminded cf what tbe palmist said: "Tbe heavens declare the glory ot Cod and tbe firmament shewed His handiwork." We not ioe tbe water falls at various points, and tbe hills aud mountains covered with trees and shrubs make it delightful to look at.
