Scientists have estimated that every
year layer equal to fourteenfeet OF the
entire surface OF all oceans and other
waters is taken up into the atmosphere
In the shape Of vapor, to fall as rain and
again flow back into The seas.
A few people were inclined to treat 1t
as a joke when the GLoBE advertised
some weeks since for lawyer for this
place. Our new attorney, Mr.. Goode,
has been kept busy almost day and night
since bis arrival here, and he informs
US that his business has far exceeded bis
most sanguine expectations. A very
large portion Of the business to come be-
fore the next term Of circuit court will
be conducted BY Mr.. Goode. Among
the many cases in his hands now are
three or four divorce suits.
The number Of newspapers published
In all countries is estimated at Al 600,
Of which number about 24,000 appear in
Europe. Germany leads the European
list With 5000, then comes France with
400, England with 1900, Austria-Hun-
gary with I,500, italy with 400, Spain
with $50, Russia with 800, Switzerland
with 450, Belgium and Holland with 300
each, and the rest are published in Port
ugal, the Scandinavian and the Balkan
countries. Besides the GLoBE, the Uni
ted States has $4,000 newspapers, Can
ada has 70O and Australia also has 700.
The people OF the United States there
fore read and support about as many
newspapers AZ England, France, Ger
many and Russia combined.
We are glad to see that our citizens
are taking the GLoBE'e advice OF last
week and are digging more wells here.
Nearly dozen more new wells are being
sunk In different portions Of the town,
and abundance Of good water IL being
reached in all of them within seven or
eight feet of the surface. There isn't a
town in the county that can secure as
much good water 50 near the surface as
ut Condop. The only exception is that
Of the county we'll which il 20 feet deep,
and contains only one foot OF water.
This Is due to the fact that it is on the
highest point In town, and it will be
necessary to 20 few feet deeper. With
the exception Of Arlington, on the Col
umbia river, Condor has the best water
supply Of any town in the county, not
witlstanding the drunken grunts Of a
few jealous soreheads who are envious
q the towns prosperity.

Weather cool and pleasant the last
few days.
Mrs. Alex Crawford and Miss Nettie
Robinson each visited relatives at Com
don this week.
Nate Cecil and his buccaroos passed
here Monday en- route for Pendleton with
drove Of beef cattle.
Grain harvesting is in rapid progress.
We understand Jim Bennett has started
his thresher. Jim raised the best crop
in the valley this season.
Last Wednesday II. NJ johnson and
family and Thos. Barton and family
started for Wenatchee, WASH, for few
weeks visit with relatives at that place.
OF course the fruit editor Of the GLOBE
will expect few choice watermeloDs
upon their return.
Last week DR.. Nicklin organized a
scouting party OF abont bakers dozen,
and went up into the Buckborn region
to hunt for petritied wood, etc. Some
of them have returned, bnt no report
has yet been handed in--hence thisgood
item is unfinished. Later. The doelor
and family returned home to Condor
Wednesday, all having had most en-
joyable time.
No one here believes n word OF the
silly gush that the brainless idiot sent
to the Fossil paper last week concerning
Condons water supply. We think we
ARE correct in our surmise that the wri-
ter OF the childish stuff is simply some
drunken loaier who is jealons Of Com
don's brilliant success. 1t isn't likely
the writer OF the article owns any prop
efty at Condor, and does not live there
---at least he shouldn't be permitted TO
live there long, il he does. CowBoY.

The new fire bell was rung for the first
time Wednesday morning, the cause be-

A few buckets OF water cured it and no
damage was done.
Marshal Carlisle mailed" two more
disreputable characters last week for
selling whisky to the noble" red man,

tors should be severe enough to put q

A Malicious Liar.

The miserable cur, signing himself
"Citizen," who sent the half-column ol
lies to the Journal last week in reference
to the supply Of water at this place, ID
n malicious liar Of the dirtiest type, and
no one knows that fact better than him-
self. There Is not word Of truth in his
entire article, and it Is disgustingly evil
dent that the writer 10 simply jealous,
disappointed sorehead who is envious Of
the success and enterprise Of our town.
He Is such an insignificant liar that his
rawlings are unworthy Of notice, and we
would not have stopped to notice him,
were II not for the false impression 1t
might create.
Some Of our citizens met all right
enough on the evening Of the I'd and, in
the most harmonious manner, discussed
the necessity Of cleaning out the large
public tank. A committee was appoint
ed and next day the work was done, and
that is all there was TO it.
We might add that we are "onto"
the scoundrel who so basely misrep-
resented our town, and he will prob
ably be invited to vacate. Doubtless
the town, on pinch, could get along
Just as well without him.

Barbedwire fence-cutting seems to be

Assessor-elect Val Wheeler and Miss
Lena Smell honored Germany by visit
last week, Val wearing the same iuno-
cent expression OF countenance as OF
yore, also a smile that ought to catch
any Of 'em. Metaphorcally speaking,
Val was properly in it" on this occa-
sion, and he seemed to be glad Of it.

rae FLAG AT COLUMBIA CORNERS.

The school committee had engaged
Helen Fenton to teach for the fall and
winter terms at Columbia Corners with
some m~isgiyings. eve ought to have
got a teacher with moro determination
and energy" suggested Chairman Ross,
of the committee. etMiss Fenton took
an excellent examination, but she's such
a mild little body I'm afraid some OF the
toughs up there will be too much for
her." Mr.. Williams, of the committee,
to whom these remarks were addressed,
chuckled quietly and finally drawled
out: SWell, you remember. Josh Billings
says, You can't always tell how far a
toadH jump by looking at him. Per-
haps she's got moresand than you think
for. Anyway she's engaged, and there
amt no use in being sorry about it now.
Perhaps she'll turn out all right"
Miss Fenton's manner certainly did
seem placid. She was scarcely twenty
years old, and a trifie below the average
in height. But if her face did not indi.
cate it she vas nevertheless q person Of
unusual spirit and determination. In
less than a fortnight after her introduce
ton into the school she had instituted
several reforms, disciplined the unruly
spirits and placed her school on q good
working basis.
In the belief that her pupils would do
better work and would be more tracta-
BILE if they could all be brought to-
gether and become interested in a COM
mon cause, she conceived the idea of
inviting their cooperation in an effort to
procure a flag for the school. into this
project all the boys and girls entered
with great enthusiasm. They went to
work earnestly to find ninety persons
who would become shareholders in the
flag. The curious little Certificates of
stock" which were prepared by Miss
Fenton with painstaking care, sold
readily. After a few days canvass the
ninetieth investor had exchanged his
dime for the last certificate, of which
the following is an exact copy:
