How n New Conner Sees Us.

j. Il. Girton, correspondent Of the
Western Newspaper Union, gave the
HERALD the following as his first i'm
pressions of Aberdeen:
elbow am ! impressed with the Gray's
Harbor country? What can say will be
first impressions, and first impressions
are not always safe guide, but from the
geography of the Harbor country one can
see how the number of streams which
reach up into your magnificent forests
can but be the means of building up not
only large lumber interests upon your
shores, but in encouraging the develop
ment of farms along their banks.
"The one thing needful not only for this
locality but for the whole of Western
Washington, is that men should come
here, not to buy lots, Git were better if
thousands of them were made back into
farm land) but to buy five or ten acres Of
farm land, and after clearing thoroughly
farm it intensely, especially for fruits,
vegetables and dairy products. The rich
valleys of the Chehalis, Wishkah, Ho-
GUAM and others are inviting fields.
You will have to shut me off or I'll never

stop, for | am sort OF crank on this
subject, but when this is done then will
your towns grow naturally, backed by the
substantial industries of lumber, fishing
and farming.
"Cf Aberdeen the thrifty and Clearly
appearance OF her stores is noticeable,
the merchants may not be doing much at
this time, but they are keeping their
places clean and attractive. This may
be more easily done on account OF the
character OF the streets. 1t seems too bad
that the rich land on which the town is
built is not protected from Che tides by a
dixie. What gardens and flower beds you
might have. Time, however will prob
ably remedy this, for it seems to me that
Aberdeen, at the head Of the Harbor,
holds the key to the situation.

To Begin Canning.

Mr.. MCGOWAN, of the United Cannery
Company, was in town yesterday making
arrangements to begin operating the COM
pany's cannery. He says that the COM
pany are making arrangements to send
their crew and materials over by raj, and
that they will be over the latter part of
next week. They expect to have twenty
five or thirty boats fishing, and offer to
pay 1917 and 80 cents for fish.

The axe that Gladstone was wont to
use at his residence at Hawarden, and
which is on exhibition in the forestry
building at the Worlds Fair, is to be pre-
sented to some lumber trade association
at the close Of the fair. If there is any
truth in the reports of the members OF
various associations cutting prices just
now, it might appropriately be given to
the one that gets prices the lowest Mis-
sissippi Valley Lumberman.

When Grover Cleveland says a thing,
no matter how he says it, there is never
any doubt as to what he means. His
message has the genuine ring of gold, and
of gold only. This he calls the peoples
money. Fiat money has no place in his
creed. He says: ''The knowledge IN
business circles among our people, that
our government can not make its fiat
equivalent to intrinsic value, nor keep
inferior money on parity with superior
money, by its own independent efforts,
has resulted in such lack of confidence
at home, in the stability of currency
values, that capital refuses it's aid to new
enterprises, while millions are actually
withdrawn from the channels of trade
and commerce to become idle and unpro-
ductive in the hands of timid owners

While times are dull here, they are
less dull than elsewhere. There is work
to be had in this vicinity for every
man who wants to work with his hands
the man who lives by jaw bone alone is
not after that kind Of work. That there
is work to be had is shown by the fact
that after it was advertised that men
were needed to build the new sewer sys-
tenn in Montesano, it was necessary to 60
out of the county to get them. The man
who is looking for work only that he may
60 around the corner in order that it may
not see him, is the one who is bowling
most about the scarcity of work. His
whole stock in trade is howl.

WHEAT SURPLUS.

PORTLAND, Sept. 28.-Frorn
the best information obtainGble
by leading shippers in this city
it appears that the surplus Of
wheat for ihipment from the
northwest will be about the same
as last yearly 100000 bushel.
A large amount Of Willamette
valley wheat will be milled.
shipments from Portland will
be 100000 and from the sound
5,000,000, a large part Of which
will probably go to San Fran
cisco, as there is only 10000 ton
mage listed for the sound against
60,000 for Portland. The wheat
market is moderately active here,
farmers are Offering freely and
quite a number Of ships are to
be loaded.-Review, Spokane.

4han they have been for The past
several months. Indeed, the
confidence of men of means is
gradually growing stronger, as
they are enabled to see the foun-
dations of our financial system.
There has been no just reason
why real estate securities should
not, at any time, command a
reasonable amount of money.
Men grow alarmed when good.
reasons for fear exists; and then
suffer themselves to be carried to
extremes in which everything
seems dangerous. No better
symptoms need be asked for than
the resumption of the banking
business of the country. Then
the vast amount OF cattle and
hogs, are sure indications of bet
ter times.

A SUCCESS.

The School Directors have
done nobly in pushing forward
the erection of Our new school
house, for which they justly de-
serve the good will and hearty
cooperation Of each resident of
the community, There will
doubtless be a small amount OF
money needed, more than is Sc
cured in order to complete the
house. And it seems to us, even
though the times are so exceed
ingly hard, that with proper in
terest shown by all who are able
and are directly concerned. the
house can reach completion with
out one dollar of debt resting on
it. We can we'll afford to sacri-
fee almost any line Of business
rather than have our school in
