THE COLUMBIA BAR.

The mighty Columbia is asserting it
self again, despite the millions of money
invested by the government at the Jet
ties. The tremendous food is build
ing. and unbuilding, at the behest OF
impulses and forces not yet within the
puryiew of human correction. The bar
is Swallowing on one course; and deep
ening on another, especially on the
channel that makes to the south and
west and diametrieally against
the jetty work. There is moth
ing to be surprised at in these condi-
tions: enormous barriers of this sort
are not dispelled nor regulated in
year or two; the history of harbor i'm
proyement the world over demonstrates
the uncertainty of tidal currents and
the unreliability of all methods of re-
straint. The forces at work at the
mouth of the Columbia are not of the
simpler sort and their battling agencies
are not amenable to the ordinary plans
of restriction and guidance. 1t is hard
to conceive that the cultured wisdom of
a government and the trained forces it
brings to the solution of these great
enigmas, are at fault indeed. it is not
yet possible to declare with any GER
tainty that the ietty is failure, nor
is such an assumption under eonsidera-
ton here; but, there is ground for the
conclusion that the work already done
must be amplifed by the construction
of a northern jetty to make the one on
the south at all effective. Pending this
additional work, it is beyond all contro-
versy that the great channel must be
kept open by the simpler, yet tempo
rary, expedient of a powerful dredger,
and every influence will be brought to
bear for the ordering of the Chinook
to the scene and the keeping her there
for as long season as possible.

Troyites in the Earthquake.

There were lot Of old Troy citizens
in the California earthquake, most of
them at Santa Rosa, where the shock
was extremely severe. A. H. Charles
wrote to D. M. Eckman the day fol-
lowing the disaster and reported all
safe except Charley Daniels, who was
in San Francisco at the time, and on
the 18th had not been heard from.
Mr.. Charles said his residence was ap-
parently alright, but the damage to
contents was big. He had worked all
day getting people out Of the fallen
buildings, and said, although about ex-
hausted, he would stay with the trying
labor one day longer. 1t was beyord d
description, he wrote. Live and dead men
were in the ruins and the sights were
awful. The Christian church and othel
public buildings were being used as
morgues. Santa Rosa was literally
shook to pieces.

Money in Goats

1t is quite certain that one of the
most profitable industries offered in
this section is the raising of goats.
Especially is this true relative to pine
and brush lands, of which there is a
vast area tributary to Troy that is fast
being put under the plow. Joe Wells,
living northeast Of Troy some twelve
miles, has just finished shearing eight
head, and from this little flock got an
average OF six pounds each, valued at
one dollar per pound. A sample Of
the clip was brought in by J. D. Jolly
this week and measured almost a foot
in length. Mr.. Wells says his band
will clear about three acres a year of
brush, or over a third of an acre per
goat. These animals are great forag-
ers, and thrive particularly we'll on
brush, twigs, leaves or bark, and will
eat up brush, cutting clean to the
ground and killing it. The goats will
eat leaves as long as these last, then
they browse on the twigs and later
devour the bark, stripping trees and
brush clean. This gone they will eat
up even the brush already stripped ol
bark and foliage. And it is the opinion
Of Mr.. Wells that the ground is cleared
even better than it can be done by
hand. These animals thrive we'll here
and their great value ought to make
them in great demand in the section
north and east of Troy.

A Coincident.

While it is a coincident, yet it is
very peculiar that it should happen,
AL. Roberts, our well-known American
ridge farmer, and c. c. Carpenter, Of
Thorn Creek, will have big celebra-
ton today at the Carpenter home south
of Moscow. It is all due to the fact
that both men were born on the same
day of the month, April 27. They
were both welded on the same day
of the month, July 23. Both mar
ried girls of the same age at day Of
marriage. And two years ago both
Mr.. Carpenter and Mr.. ROBBERS weighed
exactly the same, 1877 pounds. So to-
day there is big celebration at the
Carpenter home, and AL. Roberts and
wife are in attendance. 1t is a fore
gone conclusion that the day will be
one of pleasure to both families. Yes,
and both are dyed-in-the-wool repub-
licans, and both will probably continue
to vote that way as long as theil
party is in business at the old stand.

Money in Cattle.

There is good money in cattle, even
when feed is as high as it has been at
Troy during the past year. This fact
is established by good proof, because
Frank Green and brother, who stall
fed "a head at Troy last winter, tried
it. The cattle were a bunch OF two
year olds last spring, which the Green
brothers brought here last fall from
their farm, and they fed them three
and half months before selling them
this spring to Messrs. Sullivan and
Reitman, Troy butchers. After de-
ducting the loss Of one steer that died
the cattle brought an average OF $50
per head, ard by feeding the bunch
over winter they cleared justfve dollars
a head over cost of feed. That is, a
profit Of SIS per head was made by
feeding the steers only three and
half months. The price received was
about four cents per pound at the
barn and the results are highly pleas
ing to Mr.. Frank Green, who related
his experience to News reporter.

An lncubated Infant.

While Mr.. and Mrs. George Carbuhn
were visiting in Portland, Ore, last
January, Mrs. Carbuhn gave birth to a
baby boy four months before maturity.
The little piece of humanity weighed
but one and one-halt pounds. The
parents decided to place it in an infant
incubator under the care Of a trained
nurse, and if possible preserve the
spark of life in the little body. The
child grew and waxed stronger each
day after being placed in the incuba-
tor. When born the nails on the
fingers and toes had not yet formed.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Carbuhn returned
several weeks later the baby was still
living and growing nicely. The first o.
the week they received word from
Portland that the child was now fully
developed and had reached point II
its existance where it could be brough
home and placed under its mother
care. Mrs. Carbuhn left for Portland
Yesterday morning to bring the little
fellow home. They are expected t.
arrive unday.-Uniontown Press.

For City Water.

While there seems to be possibility
that Troy may be unable to install her
water system this summer, owing
to the lack Of funds, the proposition
has not been abandoned. Through
the efforts of Olson & Johnson Spokane
.canitalists have become interested in
the project and are now investigating
the matter. During the week special
representative of the Spokane people
was in Troy, and the ground carefully
gone over. The tlwn was partially
canvassed to determine the probable
revenue, and if the people here will
only step up at this time and do the
right thing the gravity system will be
put in this summer. Now is the time
to show the proper spirit and get fire
protection for Troy.

About Our School.

The petition by residents Of me
south end Of the Troy school district
askino for legal separation from Troy
was denied by the commissioners.
When the matter was thoroughly in
vestigated many Of those who signed
the petition changed their minds and
were anxious to keep the district as it
is today.
At a meeting OF the directors a few
days ago all the teachers in the Troy
schools were retained. There seems
to be feeling of general satisfaction
with the work of the Troy teachers
and no objection to their retention.
This is certainly complimentary and
speaks we'll for the work done.
AS soon as school closes Prof.
Smith, with his family, will move back
to their homestead near Park.
No effort will be made to build a
new school house in Troy next year.
The old building will be straightened
up and strengthened and used until
such time as the district can afford
to erect new one. There is a strong
sentiment against running the people
any further in debt. At the annua
meeting in June the question Of re-
bonding will be taken up. A specia
tax must be levied Or new bond
issued. The old bonds are due thi
year and although they have run fifteer
years no provision has so far beer
made to pay them off. A sinking
fund must be created now, for the Law
plainly says that such action must bt
taken to meet bonded indebtedness.
