YEAR’S
PORTANT EVENTS.

atruction by Fire, Wind aud Flood.
Many causes have combined to make
the year 1SU9 a rather remarkable one.
Its opening was signalized by Spain s
surrender of the last vestige of her sov
ereignty in the western hemisphere; its
progress brought forth lhe declaration of
war between Kngland aud the Transvaal
Republic, and its close leaves these na
tions still engaged iu a bloo«ly contest,
thaj may result in important political
changes in South Africa. During the
year the lighting between the natives
and United States troop« iu
Philip
pines has continued and the war is yet on.
Other events, aside from warfare, that
have occupied public attention to a great
er or less extent have been: Signing of
the treaty of peace with Spain; settle
ment of difficulties in the Samoan Isl
ands; trial, eouviction aud pardon of Cap
tain Alfred Dreyfus in l'ranee; numer
ous lurge tires that have destroyed many
lives and much property; tornadoes that
caused disaster and death at Kirksville,
Mo., in April, and at New Richmoud,
Wis., in June; several fatal shipwrecks;
deaths of pi eminent men, among them
President Felix Faure of France, Garret
A. Ilobart, Vice-President of the United
States, and Robert G. Ingersoll; great

Outlook Bright tor Logger..
The outlook for the loggers is bright
er now, says tho Budget nt Astoria,-
than it has been for ii long time, not
withstanding that most of the logging
■.■amps are shut down for a time, while
short days aud bad weather are the
rule. Some 5,000,000 or 6,000,000
feet of logs just floated out of the Elo-
kaniiu river, have been sold to the
North Pacific Lumber Company for
$6.50 per 1,000, which is -he highest
price paid for logs in this section for
probably eight or 10 years. This is
encouraging to loggers,notwithstanding
it is said tho company needed the logs
aud had to pay a little more than their
real market value.
