TnE Columbia county Demo crats nominated Dan Price for Representative last Thursday. It looksjalittle singular to any one i - up a tf eef Jqr..any pqity pi. observ ation that Columbia county should have one representative, while Clatsop and Tillamook together have only one. . There is popula tion enough to entitle us to two; as it is we have not the represent ation down- here that we should. As for the idea that "both parties are equally balanced and neither cares to give possible preponder ance to the otHert" that is puerile. In a progressive, go-ahead com munity like ours, such a boyish plea should not be allowed to stand in the way of common good. Wo look to the next legislature to remedy tho defect. Washington Letter. From our.Regular Correspondent. Wasiiixotox.D. C. April 5. 1882. Congress is just warming up to the real business of legislation, and tho indications now are that it still has a long pull ahead before tho session can end. It is under stood that about one hundred speeches were booked in tho House on the taiiff commission bill, of which only a compara tively small portion have so far been delivered. The tariff ques tion is exciting more attention than wa9 oxpected at tho opening of the session, and if the commis sion bill is defeated a revision bill will be insisted upon with suffi cient pertinacity to compel another long discussion. To say nothing about the large appropriation bills, there aro enough other important measure pending to occupy at tention for a considerable- time. This Congress is probably qnito as talkativo as any of its predeces sors, but as nearly all tho won bors desire to keep their seats another term, and thoy must make "a record" to do so, there is some hope that .something more than the introduction of bills and making speeches will bo accomp lished before midsummor. Some suggestive figures wero sent to Congress the other dav by the Secretary of the Interior in response to a resolution requesting a list of states and corporations that have received land grants and have not fulfilled the conditions on which' those grants were made. The grand total of land grants made to states mid corporations is 137,881,357 acres. Of this vast amount, eight railway companies have been granted 110,589,008 acres, and to them have beon pat ented 3,971,391 acres. Theso rail way corporations agreed to build 7,748 miles of road; they have built 1,475 miles. Grants of 21, 282,349 acres of land have been made to ten states for railroad building purposos, and about one half of this amount has been pat ented to the railroad corporations in tho states. This brief state ment suggests the freedom with which tho railway corporations make promises and tho reluctance with which they perform ,them. Another important feature of the business is that although tho cor porations in no case fulfill their part of the compact, they hold the government rigidly to a perform ance of its implied obligations. Isn't it about time for the govern ment to inspire these grasping or ganiratians with a little reepoct for its authority and a littlo re gard for the rights of tho people? Advices received horo from : Salt Lake indicato that the polyga mjsts have at last taken alarm oror the Edmunds bill and fear serious trouble when it goes into opera tion. Nevertheless, they have not ' given tip all hope that they may find loop-hoIeB of escape, and with this end in .view some of the lead ers have quietly removed their ""?- ., , wives to separate houses, thinking j thereby to avoid arrest under tho clause which raakea cohabitation with more than ocr, woman a mis demeanor. Mfttir. nnlrfTflmt nf. fice-holdera W0 also resigned, and their places have been flllod by monogarjists who aro not sub ject to removal under the bill. It is also,, said that no polygamous marriages have been celebrated siuce the passage of the bill. though, as these-are always secret, nothing can bo learned concern ing them. This bill was thought to be iron-clad in its rrovisions. and the presence of these difficul ties, even before the commission is appointed, is very discouraging to those person who have buildod so many hopes upon the success of tho measure. It is not probable, however, that if this legislation fails, Congress will hesitate to sup plement it with other law3 of even a more severo character it really necessary to effect tho desired end. Having put its hands to the plow Congress is not likely to turn. It may yet turn out that tho pobyga mists have honestly accepted the law and are only putting their houses in order against the arrival commission. Sickness has been quite preva lent among Congressmen this winter and there are now several cases on tho list. Tho condition of Senator Logan's health is re garded with much anxiety by his friends, and it is feared that he will not be able to remain at his post during the rest of the session. He is one of tho most active and in dustrious senators in tho discharge oi his duties and protecting tho interests of his constituents, and his influence with the administra tion is justly very" great. During his speech in tho Senate some days ago in favor of expending ilio entire receipts from taxes on dis tilled spirits for educational pur poses, in referring to those who do not believe that good of any kind can coine of money earned by tho sale or manufacture of liquor, Senator Logan related the follewing: "I onco heard n story which I think would apply to those gentlomen very nicelv. Thero was a man I will not montion his name for whom I had great re spect, and I think this whoio country had. He was considered a statesman in his day. He. some times indulged in a little game of cards. Ho was coming up the Avenue one morning and met a poor old colorod man, who, calling him by name, said: 'My congre gation is very poor; wo want a place to worship God in; wo have no house; will you please contri bute a little something for that purpose?' The gentleman put his finger in his poeketand pulled out a hundred dollar bill. Said he. 'I won that last night at a game of cards; if you will tike that for tho service of Tho Lord you can have it.' Ho took it and said: 'Thank you, sir.' 'God moves in a mys terious way His wonders to per form.' " Spot. A singular caso is reported from Massachusetts, where ana Huchins read in his Sunday morn ing paper a prediction of a rain storm before night. Part of his roof had beon removed for repairs, and he immediately set about re placing it. An attempt was made to punish him under an old blue law against Sabbath breaking. But the judgo decided that his work was of necessity and dis charged him. Eastern despatches signify that the New York ward politician who, by the graoo of an assassin's bullot, usurps a man's place in tho Whito House, intends running in '84 to succeed himself. In such an event, he will get most beauti fully loft. Dissolution of Co-Parinership. THE CO-PAETNERSHIP nERETOKORI". existing between Chin Yu and Gow ChonK Hi the eitaurant business on .Mala street.
