THE CHINESE LAW.
The Oreyonian nn J3ae arc great
ly exercised, and evidently chagrined
at the decision of the Supreme Court
in the case of the city of Portland
vs. Perry G. Baker. The defendant
in this case had contracted to improve
Tenth street, Portland, and employ
ed Chinese lahorers. The city of
Portland plaintiff brought an action
against Baker the defendant and
prayed an injunction to restrain him
from employing Chinese, which in
junction was made perpetual, in the
Circuit Court, and the ease was ap
pealed to the Supreme Court. Now
tho facts are. Ihe city of Portland
failed to make a case, and conse
qnently were beaten in the court of
last resort, and now are engaged in
eating suspicions against that court.
Tlie only question involved in the
ease, was simply this: Had the
the city of Portland made a case in
its amended complaint which would
warrant a court in exercising its
equity powers in granting a perpetual
injunction. We think it had not.
The complaint contained no allega
tion that tho city had in any way
been damaged, or that it would be
damaged by reason of the work not
being properly done, simply this
bare allegation. " That by reason of
the employment of the Chinese la
borers, the city was ami would be
greatly damaged and unless restrain
ed, will suffer great and irreparable
injury." Which is entirely unsup
ported by any statement ot facts,
upon which the court could be called
upon to- exercise its extraordinary
powers. Gentlemen, the fault is not
with the court, ; but with the case,
as it appeared upon the pleadings.
It would be in good taste for you to
instruct cities attorney how to prepare
their cases, instead of trying to make
the Supreme Cwrt responsible for
the failure of the case. Use a little
more reason, and less abuse.
A Loxg Isla nd Dutchman in
reading an account of a meeting in
New York City, came to the words,
"Tho meeting then dissolved." He
could not define the meaning of the
last, so he referred to his dictionary,
and felt satisfied. In a few minutes
a friend came in, when the Dutchman
said, "Dey must have very hot
wedder in New York. I red an
agount of a meeting vcre all the
peoplesh ad melted away."
Soite idea of the capacity of the
British Museum Library may be
gained from the statement that it
contains three miles of bookshelves
eight feet high, and taking them all
at the ordinary 8vo. size, there are
twenty-five miles ot shelves. The
dome of the reading room is the sec
ond largest in the world, the diameter
of that of the Pantheon, Rome, ex
ceeding it only two feet.
The national debt has been boiled
dowrt to about $2,000,000,000. We
came out of the war owing more than
$3,000,000,000, and therefore have
reason to congratulate ourselves on
the present showing. It will be
easier to pay off the balance of the
debt, funded as it is at a low rate of
intrest, than it has been to reduce it
by $l,00CLpeer,000, the whole being
ea with a high rate of interest,

PRICE OF REAL ESTATE.
In our issue of the 20th ult.T in
speaking of the need of more business
houses and dwellings, we stated as fol
lows : " In some instances, attempts
have been made to purchase property
whereon to erect suitable business
houses, but the owners of the land
either would not sell at all, or asked
such fabulous prices that it was use
less to think of becoming possessed
of realty here." It seems that some
one or more persons in town feel
agrieved thereat. For in our issue
of the 27th ult., " Citizen," takes is
sue with us, and intimates that we
have not given this matter but little
if any attention. " Citizen" docs not
pretend to know anything about the
price of real estate himself in our
city, but requests us to confer with
Dr. Bayley and Mr. Woodcock and
others," and detail the result.
"Citizen" also says, "Give this
matter a fair looking into, and you
will find that I am right." We think
we know whereof we speak, and if
there is one thing more apparent
than another In "Citizen's" article,
it is this, that he is the mouth piece
of a few real estate owners in this
city. Why did not Dr. Bayley, Mr.
Woodcock and others use our col
umns to enlighten an anxious public
on the mater of the prices of real
estate in our city, instead of emloy
ing " Citizen" to reply to us, who is
in town only temporarily, and cannot,
therefore, be as well qualified to speak
as they? Why do not these genth
men speak out and give us facts, fig
ures and comparisons ? Tho intima
tion is made in Citizen's article that
men who come here with " money'"
can get all the real estate they may
want, at reasonable prices. Now, if
this is a fact, why does not some of
the real est ate suitable for business
purposes change hands? We know
of persons that have come here with
more than a "few hundred dollars'"
that have tried to make purchases
and in some instances have met with
this answer by the owners of the
properly, " we will not sell, we have
no price on our propel ty," and in
other cases tho price has been so high,
that no one could afford to purchase.
We will suggest to Citizen, to look
around and see what he can do in the
way of purchasing real estate here,
and give our many readers the benefit
of 1 is labors through our columns.
We want facts not speculations.
"Citizen" also says, that "your
article was calculated to retard pro
gress and keep intending purchasers
away." Now, we take issue with
" Citizen" on that. We believe that
it has been the uniform course of the
Gazette to encourag the develbpe
ment of Benton county, and Corval
lis. It has stood in the breach and
labored incessantly, for years, to
build up the natural interests of this
town, and if "Citizen" were at all
familiar with our columns, he would
not be in a situation to say different,
and in regard to the effect of our
article, to which he refers, we must
say we think he is inclined to be very
captious. We whould not change
what we wrote if we could; and wc
wrote it, to call the attention of our
citizens to the fact, that they are
holding property too high, and they,
and not we, are the ones that are
keeping away those seeking to invest
their means here. We hope that the
article referred to will open the eyes
of property holders to the facts, and
that they will see the necessity of
and tho certain advantages to be ob
tained, by taking a more liberal
course.
EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
Dear Gazette: Three Veks ago
last Friday, accompanied by Mrs. C,
we started for the Golden State m
quest of health. We sailed for San
Fiancisco from Portland, at 6 a. m.,
Saturday, on the A 1 iron steamship
Oregon, Capt. Conner, and F. II.
Reed, purser. Among the noble
commadore8 who command the fleets
of the Pacific, Capt. Conner, tor skill
and prudence, heads the list having
been in command of vessels between
San Francisco and Portland for the
past thirty years, wilhont meeting
with an accident, we believe. Fol
lowing in the wake of the great
storm, we had quite a rough passage
many of the passengers experienc
ing what is meant by sea-sickness.
Mrs. C. was among the number,
while the writer escaped, and enjoy
ed an excelle-it appetite. The officers
and employes of the Oregon were
all very kind and attentive to pas
sengers, bnt " Mary," the steward
ness, who, like a ministering angel,
was here, there, and everywhere,
dispensing favors and cheering the
lady passengers with her smiles, de
serves more than a passing notice;
She is the right woman in the right
place.
Francisco at 10 a. m. on Tuesday.
Remained until Thursday at 9 a. m.,
when we took the steamer Orizaba
for this place. Touched at Port
Harford and Santa Barbara, arriving
at San Pearo, (ship anchorage) at 6
a. m. Took small steamer to Wil
mington, from thence by cars four
teen miles. Los Angeles is one of
the oldest towns in Southern Califor
nia, some 450 miles southeast of San
Francisco. It claims a population of
15,000, and would be a lovely place
if it had been laid out with anything
like order or regularity. The streets,
in the business portions of the city
are short, crooked and irregular
apparently taking the direction of
cow-paths, as Built, origiuinally by
the Spanish population.
The climate is said to be usually
lovely in winter but the present is
an exceptional season nothing like
it ever before known by the "oldest
inhabitants." Snow, (slight) ice, cold
rains, cloudy days, here since our
sojourn, with a few regular Oregon
" mists." We have been here a fort
night, but are promised better weath
er in a few days, if there is not
an improvement soon, we shall re
turn to Webfoot.
As an evidence of the " cold snap,"
we find the lime hides and trees all
dead, and many of the tropical plants
and beautiful" flowers completely
" cooked," so to speak. The orange
trees, however, appear to be unin
jured, and are now loaded with gol
den fruit. Nearly every lot is an
orange orchard. Oranges, grapes
and honey, seem to be the chief pro
ducts of this section of the State.
In consequence of continued ill health,
which is but little improved, as yet,
we have been unable to see all the
city and country adjacent, but are
delighted with what we have seen.
But, with all the grand anil romantic
scenery, and much praised healthful
climate, we find that people get sick
and die here, as elsewhere. We find
rheumatism, heart disease, dropsy,
consumption, and that, too,amongna
tive Californians. Some invalids find
relief here, while others do not, .and
in some instances, quickly pass away.
We are very pleasantly situated
through the kindness of Prof. O. S.
Frambes, and his most excellent wife,
formerly of Oregon, and whom we
are permitted to number among our
warmest and most esteemed friends.
They are in charge of the Los Angeles
Academy, conducted under the aus
pices of the M. E. Church. We are
boarding in the Academy, with Mrs.
Snyder, who has chargeof the board
ing house. Among the boarders ae
Rev. M. M. Bovard and family, Mrs.
Tansey, Mrs. Wilcox and son,
Miss Hill, Mr. and Mrs. Frambes and
Prof. Jory, the latter formerly of
Oregon. The table is supplied with
all the market afford f, and served in
the most agreeable and home like
manner consequently always full.
As soon as Prof. Frambes learned we
were at the Cosmopolitan, he called
upon us, and in order to secure ns
accommodations at the Academy, his
wife proposed to give us their parlor,
which was furnished in good style,
and here we have been ever since.
We have made numerous agreeable
acquaintances, which makes the time
pass very pleasantly, indeed.
Rev. Hardin Wallace, Rev. n. F.
Ashcraft, and James Jaynes, of Illi
nois, Holiness evangelists, are doing
a grand work in this city after; spend

this State, may come to Oregon.
Mr. Jaynes is a fine singer the San
key of the trio. Rev. Mr. Wallace,
who, by the way, used to make our
father's house a stopping place, when
he first entered, and when we were a
small boy, is a very original and pe
culiar, but at the same time, very
effective preacher. He preached to
a large audience last evening, in the
Trinity, M. E. Church South, on
" Justification and sanctification, or
Holiness-." W. B. C.

Enoch Arden Outdone. Enoch
Arden has been outdone in Council
Bluffs. Iowa. Some time prior to the
war a young couple met and loved.
After a short courtship they were
married and lived happily together.
When the war broke out the hus
band shouldered a musket in defence
of his country. Letters came regu
larly for a time and then ceased.
Word was sent home that he had
been taken prisoner, and soon after
the dread news came that he was
dead. The news was considered so
authentic that the Government' al
lowed a pension to thetwidow and
her children. After a time she lis

husband proved to be a worthless
drunkard, and she got a divorce on
the ground Of intemperance. Not
content with her bad luck, she con

YAQUINA BAY.
How we wish that we could leave
out this heading from the paper, in
calm confidence, that no farther
effort is needed, that the struggle is
over and the battle won. We know
that the people ot the valley counties
p11 with their sieninr of
the memorial to Congress. We have
all confidence that Congress will in
its turn pay all due attention to the
prayer lately sent on. We believe
that our Senators and Representative
will continue to do their part in press
ing on the attention of their col
leagues this matter, so closely identi
fied with the interests of so many of
their constituents. Well, then ? The
truth is, that we know this battle is
being fought against very heavy
odds. Our great enemies are ignor
ance, envy, incredulity and indiffer
ence. Much has been done to defeat
them, but the field is not yet won.
How many do we yet meet who
either never heard of Yaquina Bay,
or if they have heard of the place,
have some rival interest to serve,
some other axe to grind ; or else they
doubt, courteously or rudely, accord-
inf to their character, whether we
have there a land-locked bay, a deep
water channel hill eight miles long,
an entrance, obstructed indeed by
that reef, but offering now 12 feet ot
water at low tide, and nineteen feet
at high tide, and capable of unlimit
ed improvement. Or we come across
some Gallio who cares for none of
these things, and contemptuously
drives ns from the judgment seat. If
we could but capture some of these
men and carry them down to that
high hill over Diamond Point, look
ing oit across the Bay to sea, and
keep them there, even if the wind
did blow a little, till they got to know
these outlines by heart, and traced
once for all that broad strip of calm
blue water between the narrower
strips of foaming white, while the
great seas beat on that outside reef
in vain seeking an entrance into our
quiet harbor. If we conld but im
press some of these doubters and
bear them out in that little schooner
we have heard of, and tie them
fast while they watched the leads
men sound across the bar. If we
could t&ke them to the Light House
Point when the Alexander Duncan
came boldly in, finding eighteen feet
of blue water, as Captain Carroll re
cords of his last trip. Well, then
we should have these doubters, and
converted these indifferent, ones ; this
we know. But, then ? Then there
would be still two things to fight
one to get Republican and Demo
cratic members of Congress to be
lieve that the people of Oregon are
in earnest in insisting on these great
natural advantages being developed
by national aid. The other, and pos
sibly the harder, to overcome the
dead weight of officialism, fearing to
undertake fresh work, content to go
on improving a little here, patching
a little there, in places which have
long since won such a battle as we
are now engaged in.
If the valley means to succeed in
thus breaking its way through obsta
cles to the open sea, let its voice be
ever heard, let Oregon's Representa
tives be ever stirred up to work, let
no candidate have a chance of success
unless he makes this cause his own.

FROM JKE BAY.
Ed. Gazette: The Daily Oregonian of
February 21st contains a letter signed
" Shipmaster," of great interest to the ship
pers, to the merchants and farmers of the
Willamette valley. The Oregonian properly
calls the substance of this letter, written by
a large ship-owner and one of the directors
of the London bank in Portland, a "burden
on our shipping," and while deprecating the
system so detrimental to the State, says :
The subject will, we trust, receive the
attention of our board of trade, so that
measures may be taken to effect changes
through legislation, and in other ways which
will obviate as far as possible these onerous
charges on our commerce.
Right to the point, and it is just what the
people of Central and Eastern Oregon are
doing. We want an appropriation to re
move an obstruction less than 150 yards
wide on the Yaquina bar. ''Shipmaster"
says it costs from $250 to 500 pilotage and
towage, a distance of fifteen miles. This of
course includes the passage of the Columbia
bar (nearly five miles across) to a point near
Astoria. ' He further says the charges,
through not quite so high, from Astoria to
Portland, are unreasonable. But, don't you
see, the legislation we ask does away with
any bar, ami the whole distance from the
deep water of the Pacific to the wharves of
the W. V. & C. E. R. will be less than six
miles. No legislation can possibly effect
a greater reduction of pilotage and towage
in favor of the commerce of at least half of
Oregon than this improvement, to say noth
ing of the distance saved or the incidental
expenses, such as lighterage, etc., etc.
It is a noticeable fact that during these
long years of argument and the presentation
of every real advantage claimed for the
Yaquina Bay as a railroad terminus, and as
an outlet for the trade of Central and East
ern Oregon, not a single contradictory state
ment has been offered. Why? Simply be
cause it would be against the interests of a
large portion of the State, and because every
point made is susceptable of official proof.
No man with a thimble full of common sense
but can see plainly this railroad means com
petition, and competition means the regula
tion and cheapening of transportation. Leg
islation will not bo required to keep the
greed of pilots and tug-owners of the Colum
bia in check. These gentlemen will be busy
reducing rates to meet the rates established
by the shorter and cheaper lines. There is
nothing visionary about this. Solid busi
ness principles suggest the method of recti
fying a great mistake, and natnre offers the
way. There is only one thing necessary:
Can conflicting interests and the potency of
capital, concentrated and occupying an un
fortunate position commercially, annul the
wide-spread demand for this small aid in
improving our harbor ? Certainly not; if
energy is used and the enthusiasm of to-day
continues, the result is not the least doubt
ful. But remember, " Eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty," and it is liberty we
want. We desire the liberty of choosing
between two routes to the seaboard. If we
choose to take the longest route, it will be
because itis thecheapest every way, and that
point can never be reached while we have
but one thoroughfare for tly trade of Ore

Is a compound of the virtues of sarsaparilla,
stillingia, mandrake, yellow dock, with thty
iodide of potash and iron, all powerful blood'
making, blood-cleansins, and life-sustaining
elements. It is the purest, safest, and in
every way the most effectual alterative medi
cine known or available to the public. The
sciences of medicine and chemistry havo
never produced so valuable a remedy, nor
one so potent to cure all diseases resulting'
from impure blood. It cures Scrofula, and
all scrofulous diseases, Erysipelas, Rose,,
or St. Anthony's Fire, Pimples ana
Face-arrubs, Pustules, Hlotches, Boils,
Tiutiors, Tetter, Humors, Salt Rheum,
Se.iil-hea(l, Ringworm, Ulcers, Sores,
Rheumatism, Mercurial Disease, Neu
ralgia, Female Weaknesses and Irregu
larities, Jauntlice, Affections of the
kivcr, Dyspepsia, Emaciation, and
Oeneral Debility.
By its searching and cleansing qnalities
it purges out the foul corruptions which
contaminate the blood, and cause derange
ment and decay. It stimulates and enlivens
the vital fund ions. It promotes energy and"
strength. It restores and preserve!, health.
It infuses new life anil vigor throughout the
whole system. No sufferer from any diseaso
which arises from impurity of the blood need
despair, who will give Aveh's Sarsaparilla
a fair trial. Kemember, the earlier they
trial, the speedier the cure.
Its recipe has been furnished to physicians
every where; and they, recognizing its supe
rior qualities, administer it in their practice.
For nearly forty years Avar's Sarsapa
rilla has been Widely used, and it now pos--sesses
the confidence of millions of people
who have experienced benefits from its mar--vellous
curative virtues.
