1 yj DBECQN SEBTiHEL. JACKJO.VV IL.L.V. Saturday, September 12, 1885 H Swamp Lands. The arrival, of C. D. Shackelford, the governnmnt's specul agent, to ex amine into the Oregon swamp land, will open up this question anew. The state will now appoint en agent to as tut Mr. Sliackilford in the investiga tion, and thejr will work jointly. The state's agent has not yet been appoint ed. , The last legislature appointed a com mittee t investigate the status of the swamp land question, but the commit tee never reported, whether for the want of tima or otherwise was never disclosed to that august body. The rcportthat was drafted by tint com mittee's clerk, who received 8 per day for forty days out of the state funds, now sleeps quietly in a certain honorable gentleman's hands. If thue who hold swamp lands ac-quired-them by complying with the re quirements of the law to earn them, thsy should be protected in their right and title to their property; but if in the course of the iuvesli(,ution the fact comes to light that land is being held contrary to the provisions of the law, it should be forfeited. The eyes of the public will be on this investigation. Honest men invite investigation an J do not shen publicity. If there is any "nquealiug" the public will conclude that some one's corns have been pinched. "Salem Statesman," Fire hundred and fifty ono immi grants passed through St. Paul during August for points west of Spokane falls. In the name time 130 first class passengsrs bound west, passsd through St. Paul, making" tn,e total departures from that point for the Northwest 690. Arrivals of first clais'passengers and immigrants at Portland by the Oregon Short Line were about 600; by stemer from San iFrancisco about 1,600. The whole number of arrivals for the month was 2,890; in July 2,500, June 3,100, May 3,100, April 3,000, March 2,000 February 1,000, January 400. A total of 17.990 for tho first eight months of 1885. Land Commissioner Sparks, says the Marvsville ''Appeal," is a daisy of reformer. Nearly 7,000 land patents made out since he came into office will Jiave-io tArre-wrmen;"&no7th8reaordir of the office made over to correct er rors in dates. Twenty-nine thousand claims, in which final proof had been made, were suspended by the arbitrary order ef April 3. He doesn't scorn to be able to ds anything in a straight forward manner. It is one thing to proleot the public lands from dishonest claimants and another to inflict less and injury on thousands of honest per sons by denying Ihem their rights. ' Up to September 1, 6309 fourth class post-mast era had been appointed --a greater numbpr in Ohio than in any other state. The work is qoing nn as rapidly as possible. So far the President has filled 524 of the 2332 postoffices to which appointments must be made directly by himself. This is nearly one fourth of the whole number. A list of nominations for the remaind er of the presidential offices is now be ing roads out at the postoflk-e depart ment, to be presented to the President for his action. The charge recently given by a Judge in Georgia, has special applica tion in Oregon, and would have a mot beneficial influence if observed. The lawyer in adtlnvMug the jury, in the case referred to, where tho evidence was cucumstantial, mado frequent use of the remark that ninety-nine guilty men should escape rather than one innocent man should suffer. The Judge in charging the Jury, said that tho utnety nine guilty men had long fijo escaped. A Washington special to the "World says that Pension Commissioner Black has ruled that two Union soldiers, each of whom had-an.arm amputated below the shoulder,, ara entitled to an in crease of tension to $37.50 per month under the act of March 3, 1885. This act pensioned soldiers who had an arm taken off at the shoulder joint. The decision alio covers, it is believed, all cues of amputation near tho elbow, km or hip joint, where the cut is so tit sr u to.render the remaining bone useless. Harwell is the lien of St. Louis. Tti women furnwb. flowers for his cell and tha men are liberal ia cigarettes, .Sightseers from far and near crowd the jail so that the jailor has set apart a day specially for his visitors. His defense is a triple one that he pre scribed chloroform for Preller who died from an overdose that Preller died fron heart disease that Prellfrl is hui ua, The Linlcville JRoad. Now that the railroad is to be pnl through to connection without any further delay, the people at Linkville and Klamath Lake basin are agitating the matter of improving the wagon road from Linkville to Cooley'p, on vVillow Creek, for connection at that point with the railroad. No doubt plenty of funds can be obtained by Mil scription to bnild around the moun tain from Shovel creek to Plevna, or a good grade can be established to make easy hauling. The Linkville people are decidedly in favor of improving the Linkville road, us the road to Ash land can never be made a good road for easy trael, nor can be relied upon in winter on aceount of the deep snow. The distance from Linkville to Cooley'u is also 12 or 13 miles fhortar than by Ashland route to railroad, to that it will be cheaper to team from Cooley's, no matter whether tho freight comes from Portland or San Francisco. It is probable that the depot for all the Linkville freight and travel will. , be established at Cooley's sad all, passen ger and freight from the north or south will leave the cars at Cooley's for Linkville, Fort Klamath and Southeastern Oregon. "Journal." It hag been but a bhort timo since the Pullman ! palace cars were intro duced on the Oregon 4 California rail road but they have become very pop ular. Although a great many people still prefer to save their small fare, atid ride in the old fashioned coach, yet the traveler who wants to com bine pleasurd and comfort with his business invariably rents his seat in the Pullman parlor for the day, and his birth in the bleeper at night. The cars on this road are the finest runn ing on any western road, and one of them, the Albany, was awarded the premium at the late New Orleans' fair. The principal source of pleasure in riding in a Pullman is the distance from the engine, which precludes gett ing the eyes full of smoke as in the. forward cars, and the smoothness with which it passes ever .the rails, with hardly ajar or jolt. The-upholstering has much to do with the easo in riding there too, as. every corner is heavily cushioned., The rates are low, being but twenty-five cents extra for Pullman privileges, between Portland and Albany, Portland to Eugene 1, to Roseburg 1 50, ad to Ash'and from Portlaud $3 50 The rate from Rosfburg to Ashland for sleeper is 92:00. Messrs. W. G. Steel, J. M. Breck, Jr., and R. J. Laughlin of Portland and Rev. E. L. Lockord of Douglas county, returned recently from a visit to Crater Lako in Klamath county. It is reported as being ono of the won dars of the world and Mr. Steel slopp ed in Hosebnrg, on his way homo as we learn from the "Plaindealer," to interview Hon. B. Herman, Represen tative in Congress, and enlist him in the interest of having Congress set apart fi"e or s& townships in which Crater Lake is situated for a national park and heroby secure for Oregon a creat pi we of general resort. Tli lake is 0,300 feet above the sea level and is more than 1000 feet below the surfaco ot the mountain. It is about 8 miles long by 5 miles wide. There is an island in the lake near one end, .which Mr. Steel and party named Wizard Island. In this island' f here is .an extinct crater 90 feet deep and 475 feet ia diameter. Tho wenery around the late is very grand. The Oregon missionary car is on ex hibition on the Iowi State Fair grounds at Des Moines, and is the greatest attraction in the midst of many. A constant stream of farmers pass though from early morn till dark. It is a great revalation to Iowa pco pie. and a wonderful success for Ore gon. The managers of the State Fair have offered a premium of $250 for a base ball contest. MARRIED. Stricklin Denkis At the residence of E. Morgan, in Phoenix. Sept. 7, 1885, by Jtcv. C. A. llosic, P. A.
