R. Alexander one of Pendleton's prominent merchants .spent yesterday visiting his daughter and family. will then take the dredge to a point known as False Palouse, where a 60 foot ledge, which occupies a danger ous position in the channel, will be blasted out. Captain Baughman states that the work done at Palouse rapids" will now make the channel safe for navigation at any stage of water. This has long been considered one of the very dan gerous places on the river. The river at this point has crowded into solid rock walls, the channel at points being only 70 feet wide, while the depth is 150 feet There is nearly a mile of this kind of water. The work has been devoted to blasting out the dan gerous projections, while at the lower approach of the rapids, the channel has been widened from 65 feet to 85. Captain Baughman says the extreme ly low stage of water has enabled some very good work to be done un der most convenient circumstances. At points It was possible to operate the drills from the banks. Some big charges of powder have been used. A 950 pound shot resulted in blowing out a reef of rock 75 feet long- and 15 feet wide. Captain Baughman says that at Pine Tree rapid. 30 miles below Pa louse rapids, splendid work is being done In Improving the channel by Mr. McManagan, who is operating a drill scow removing rocks and reefs.

They have plenty of money and are seeking no assistance finan cially. All they want la to obtain land at reasonable prices. They think that they can overcome the winter rains by the construction of extensive shelters. They said that they had heard a great deal of the harbor coun try, and that Judging by what they had heard, It would be admirably suited for a stock and dairy country. "Curiously enough, one of the things that made them view this dis trict with favor was tLe heavy rain fall. They said it was good for sheep and besldea they declared that the range of California had become too dry for the raisins; of food meat Another advantage In favor of the harbor Is Its excellent shipping facili ties."

He was given the privilege of occupying a cabin In the Mariposa Big Tree grove. Leltch aa In Anril before he had ODened bis place of business for the year. As no goods bad been sold under the II cense and It was non-transferable, the administrator of Leltch's estate thought that the government would be willing to refund the license fee of $50. He applied to the treasury officials for the money but the only answer they could make was that there was no law authorizing a refund In such cases. Leltch's death revok ed license but that involved no draw back. In May the privilege that had been held by Leltch was sold to B. N. Baxter, who paid $50 for a year's li cense.
