There are tuob people in theoitiee of Bainier and Cllatakaole, and butineae activity in those places It the result. An am fcltion to eioel it the principal thing thatbuilda large cities. We do not auppoee either Bainier or Clatskanie will reaob the several thousand mark right away, but they bear evidence of substantial growth, backed up by pro gressive people. . Found a Floateb. On Thursday of last week a man wat found lodged against the Jetty on the opposite aide of the river. Tha ooroner of Cowliti county was notified, who made an ex amination, and took the remains to Xalama where they were buried. It ia thought the body had been in the water for months, owing to ill awful atate of decomposition. There was nothing by whioh to establish the iden tity of the body. -j Naw Watib Plaet The oily coun- ell at itt meeting Monday night passed a resolution aoDropriatinc MUU Irom the city treasury to be applied on the new water plant whion is now undef consideration by Orchard k Jones. It is estimated tbat the workt proposed by these gentlemen will cost about 91500, and tbey asked the city for a bonus as above stated. The water will be brought from Wikstrom't place into the city, and it it intended to begin work on the new system at once. That Expumiom. The blowing up of the old steamer 8. G. Beed, which was to have taken place somewhere in the Columbia river last Sunday night did not take plaoe, and tn consequence there were tome very much disap pointed people in this place. The steamer Young America left here about 5 o'clock with a party to witnese the event, and proceeded ss far up the river as St, Johns, but seeing no signs of the object of their trip, returned to this city, and next day It was hard to flud any one who went on the wild I goose chaae by moonlight.

It is esti mated that 11,000 will complete the road ready for travel.

Gomvioted or Cokbpiracy. Ex- Collector James Lotan and Seid Back were tried in Portland last week for a third time charged with conspiracy to smuggle Chinese Into the united Btalea. On the two former trials the jury could not agree, but this time, after being out several hours, they re turned a verdiot of guilty aa charged in the indiotment. A motion will now he argued for a new trial on exceptions. The defendants are both rich men, and no money or effort will be spared to establish their innocence. The penalty for the orima for which tbey liave been oonvioted ia two years in prison and a fine of (10,000. Ik Trouble Aa aim .The same gang of tongba who were arrested here three -weeks ago for selling liquor to minors on a whisky scow, of whom two women were convicted of immoral oonduot, have since been in the tout at Oath lamet.

Dokatios Laud Claims' .--The matter of perfecting title to donation land claims Jn Oregon, Washington, And Idaho, under the aot of September 27. 18&0. cannot be delayed much longer.

The girl exhibited the note to her mother, who concluded she would fill the desired appointment with the frisky young man personally, accompanied by her daughter-in law. She met the .writer of the note on the Canemah sidewalk, above where the falls of the Willamette glisten in the eleotrio light, and proceeded to give the amorous iothario such a cowbiding that he fairly yelled with pain.
