J. G. Megler is j the only onepaying the priee asked f for salmon by the fishermen's union; tlie re3t of the cannerymen are de pending on traps for their fish.

Yet, that's the Tacoina style of running a fire "department The Tacoma peo ple are lavish with appropriations for the tire department, but the matter is loosely managed. The forty-one negroes that went up to Kodiak on the Haytien liejmblif to take the place of strikers, according, to report, proved to be little good in the practical sense. They were not fishermen, aud had never before had any experience in handling salmon. Of" the number that went up thirty one went back to San Francisco on the Republic. The other ten remain on Kodiak island until next year.

Grand jury comes in, presents fol lowing report and are discharged; In the circuit court of the state of 1 Oregon, for the county of Clatsop. To Hon. F. J. Taylor, judge of said Court : The undersigned, your graud jury, submit the following repert: We have investigated all charges brought before us, and disposed of the cases in such manner as seemed to us warranted by the evidence. We visited the county jail, and find that it is properly and efficiently managed, but badly out of re pair and Ave recommend new flooring and thorough and extensive repairs. We also find that there is no cell suit able for the temporary confinement of insane persons, and we recommend that such a cell be fitted up imme diately. The city jail we also find properly kept, but recommend that it be so altered and repaired as to afford bet ter light to the inmates, as at present it is so dark as to necessitate the burn iug of gas during the hours of day light The court house, which was built thirty or forty years ago has about outlived its usefulness, and is a dis grace to the great and growing coun ty of Clatsop, and we recommend that the county take immediate steps to secure a suitable site for a new court house, and that it shall, as soon as practicable, build a court house ade quate to the increased and constantly increasing business of the county. We did not think it necessary or practicable to attempt o minute ex amination of the books and accounts of the various county officers. We heard no complaints against any of them, and so far aB we have been able to observe they are properly and effi ciently performing their business duties. We recommend that a safe be pur chased for the use of the sheriff, and we further recomend that the county provide for said office permanent books, aud ledgers. Those now kept are furnished by the sheriffs them selves, aud are private property, which each outgoing sheriff takes away with him, at the end of his term. We visited St. Mary's hospital, which is the county hospital, and found it excellently managed, and in every way worthy of commendation. It is neat, clean and comfortable, and situated in n healthful locality, and the patients kindly waited upon and cared for. And having now completed our labors we ask to be discharged. A. V.

Little Business And Lots of Talk. At the regular meeting of the city council last evening, a communica tion from property owners on West Sixth street remonstrating against a f proposed change of grade on that f street was discovered to have been laid on the table at a previous meet ing.

Andrews, and $165 for the relief of Boss & Wirt were passed under suspension of the rules. The auditor and police judge was instructed to notify J. C, Trullinger that the city was ready to receive the strip of land for the western exten sion of First street. A resolution instructing him to give notioe that West 6th street was to be improved, brought councilmen Welch and Cleveland to their feet for and against it After they had talked, aud talked, and talked, councilman Bobb moved that the council adjourn.
