The pardon was granted on recommendation of the state military board, and all rights are restored. Dr. O. B. Estes, the health officer for this port in bis quarterly official report sent to Governor Pennoyer last evening, reports eighty vessels having entered this port during the quarter ending March 31st, all given clean bills of health except the steam er Oregon which was placed in quar antine on February Gtb, but through the wise and timely precautions tak en the spread of disease was pre vented and the safety of the com munity secured. Light snows and no heavy rains tho past winter have resulted in the most remarkable drought this spring that the lumber woods of upper Michigan have ever experienced, and over 1,000,000 logs barked and ready to bo shipped to the mills below, are hung up because there is not enough water in tho streams to float them. Heavy and continued rains alone will be able to rescue this winter's cut, and thus keep the mills going the season through. In the state circuit court at Salem last Wednesday, Judge Boise de cided tuat the act of the last leeia lature appointing railroad commis sioners for tins state, went into effect and became a law immediately on its passage over the governor's veto.

Last Thursday Mayor Moran of Seattle summarily suspended chief of police Mitchell pending an investiga tion of charges of malfeasance in of fice in collusion with gamblers. Cap tain Willard was appointed acting ohief of police. Shortly before hiB suspension, chief Mitohell arrested six gamblers, from as many saloons, and took them to the police court, where they paid fines of $50 each. The mayor and council say this move of the chief was done only for effect, and chief Mitohell admits that he had an understanding with the gamblers, that each saloon wonld be willing to furnish a man to pay a fine of $50. One night last week while the Tele phone was on her way up the river some person in a fishing boat fired three shots at the vessel. It is sup posed that the steamer went through the fisherman's net and so exasper ated him that he sought vengeance with his rifle. The officers of the steamer say there are no lights shown by some of the fishing boats and con sequently it is next to impossible to avoid striking a net once in a while. While it is exceedingly aggravating to a fisherman to have his net wrecked by a passing steamer, it wonld doubt less be showing poor judgement for him to try to mend matters with a rifle bullet. At Portland, on Wednesday after noon deputy United States marshal Roberts arrested the steamer Joseph Kellogg, at tho snit of the Portland, East Portland and Albina Transpor tation company, who brought suit in tho United States court to recover damages in the sum of $140 on ac count of injuries sustained by the steamer Alarm, from being run into by the Kellogg. It is claimed that the Kellogg waa in charge of O. H. Kellogg, an unlicensed pilot, and the whole accident is attributed to the carelessness of the man who was at the wheel. The owners of the Kel logg furnished bonds in tho sum of S300, and the boat was released from custody. The ship Kennebec was towed to sea at San Francisco List Thursday and as the tug was leaving, the ship signaled it to return. This was done and a boat was put off with the second mate and four sailors from the ship. Tho sea was running very high. When the boat was longside, it was found that it wa3 desired to put on board a wounded seaman named Gustave, who had broken his leg by falling down the main hatch. He was taken on board just as a monster wave swept the small boat about 100 yards ahead, throwing out two of the men. Another large wave carried the tug forward. It collided with tho boat, which was washed across tne tug and the mate was thrown down on tho deck. Lines were thrown to tho two men iu the water and they were saved. All hands were finally gotten into the small boat and put back to the Ken nebec, but their rescue was con sidered almost miraculous.

A Communication. Abtobia, April 11th, 1889. To the Editor op The Dailt Astoeian. I was very much surprised this morning to find published in to-day's paper a letter addressed to myself from senators Dolph and Mitchell and representative Hermann relating to the appointment of collector of customs at this port, a copy of which as stated by the gentlemen in the letter they had "taken the lib erty to send a copy of this letter to" the several parties named therein. One of those persons took the liberty of having the letter published with out consulting either myself or the other two parties mentioned. This action I think was injudicious, im politic and entirely uncalled for, if not a gros3 breach of confidence. Very respectfully, J. H. D. Giur. Is Consumption Incurable? Read the follewing: Mr. C. If. Morris, Newark, Ark says: "Was down with Abscess of Lungs, and friends and phy sicians pronounced me an Incurable Consumptive.
