Captain Thomas Doig returned yester-
day from his ranch on the Nehalem.
after an absence Of a coupe OF months.
Captain Doig says the farmers Of the
valley have been very busy lately har-
vesting their winter crops. Many Of the
families. he says, have been Ill with la
grippe during the winter. but no deaths
have resulted. Besides his homestead
Captain DOig owns one Of the finest
timber claims adjacent 10 the Nehalem
river. Captain Doig believes that the
timber Of the Nehalem will be marketed
by a railroad built from Seaside to some
point at the mouth Of the Nehalem. This
route he thinks the most practicable, be-
cause the current at the mouth OF the
Nehalem is not OF sufficient force 10 keep
a channel clear for export purposes. The
distance it would De necessary 10 extend
the a. & c. road 20 reach the Nehalem is
less than % miles, and he thinks il
very probable that the line will be tx
tended in the near future.

the Cold.
Pending detailed information, the

but cautiously upon the news of the
Anglo Russian agreement, regarding
spheres of influence in China.
The Daily Chronicle points out that
this agreement will produce similar
arrangements with Germany and
France, resulting in the partition OF
China, which Lord Chas. Beresford
predicts will bring about war. "Ameri-
ca, "says the Chronicle, "will appar-
emily be left out in the cold, and she
really deserves no sympathy, for if her
statesmen had been willing to join us
at an earlier stage in keeping China
open to the world, the present situa-
ton would never have arisen"
