CATHLANEr, May 2S-tSpecial. Last Friday
night the steamer K. Z. Thompson while max
ing landing, ran into the wharf at Brookheld
and cut off about twenty feet of It, fetching up
just at the edge OF the cannery building. The
boat was not injured, and repairs on the wharf
will be commenced at once.
For the last six months the Columbia river
steamers have all been in a combination, and
rates for freight and passengers have been ad-
vanced Is per cent. Passengers and shippers
have been crying tor an opposition boat, and
finally their demand has been met by the owners
of the City of Frankfort, who have placed their
boat on the route between Portland and Astoria
at the old rates.
The run OF salmon continues small. GILL
meters catch few fish, and at present seines
are not doing anything on account of the high
water. The fish that are in the river are large,
some have been caught weighing sixty pounds
each. The canneries are putting up good
many flats from the chinook salmon, but
use only the select portions, as was done last
year.

pany, which was issued by the secretary, has all
been called in by President Megler for the pur-
pose of putting the official seal of the company

Contractor Lynn has turned over the new

John Dockar, who recently sold his place adj
joining Cathlamet to Judge Beal. had probably
as fine q herd OF registered Holstein cattle as
there is in the state. Judge Beal is selling
them of.
Road supervisors are taking advantage of the
good weather and, favored by having cash in
stead of unwilling labor to use in repairing the
highways, will probably do much more on them
than has ever before been accomplished.

residents and non-residents, that their absence
here surprises and annoys. A STRANGER.

of one of the divisions it may be con-
sidered as having been launched on its
career. An examiner is given charge of
it. and it is his duty to call for all the
evidence necessary to establish it rs a
GOOD or bad claim. John Smiths rheu-
matism is Investigated from every point
of view, and the correctness of his testi-
mony is tested as well ms it can be on
purely ex parte system. In the hands of
the examiner the claim stays until it is
completed. Sometimes il takes few
months only to reach stage of compile
tion, and sometimes, too often in-fact, it
takes years. There are plenty of claims
still pending in the pension Office that
are ten years old, there are more that are
five years old, and there are even some
that are quarter of century old.
When the examiner has brought the
claim to complete state he briefs the
papers in it and submits it to the Board
of Review for admission or rejection as
the case may be. The Board of Review,
ii it thinks the claim requires more evil
dence, returns it to the division from
whence it came, where it undergoes
more treatment from the Examiner, but
if, on the other hand, the Board of Re
view approves the findings of the Exam
iner and allows the claim it goes to the
certificate division, where a pension
certificate is issued. If the claim is re-
jected it is sent to the rejected files OF
the adjudicating division from whence it
emanated. = Washington Star.
