Wuebiiigtoli, Nov. 27. -The problem of Hie apporti*'Utueul bill will be coti- siilered next Tueed ay by the House census eominittee, a meeting having been called for tuat day by Chairman Dunnell. Dunnell has no doubt of tl*e passage of the apportionment lull «luring the coming sessioD. "We will have a republican quorum here,” he Baid, "if for no other purpose than to pass this bill. Of that you may reti tisured.” Under the Dunnell bill, framed as it was upon the idea that the population would l*e65,0G0,iW, the m> tnbershtp of the Fifty-third Con- gii-se wouhi be 354, the ratio of repre sentation being lWG.tXR». A h the cen sus inis shown the population to be only about 62,600,01)0, there will have to l>e some changes. Mr. Dunnell is certain, however, that there will be no iess than 35Ó members under the bill, as he proposes to reduce the ratio so as to secure that numlier. "A gretti many leading men,” he salti, "want J6.5 memlters, ami oth ers are talking of 400. I am quite cer tain that we will not stay al 332. Nearlv all the states are asking for more cotigreBstn«i, and no member wauls the tinmlie of hw constituents increased. H > u.'. eie togli uow to lock after. I do not see why we sbollili noi have 61*1 or 700 memlsTe, like the Eng lish house, and I lielieve the younger generation will live to see that niim- I'er.” Dunnell regards as impractical the proposition advanced by Springer to keen the membership at 332 ami in crease tie» ratio of representation. H*» says that “this would reiiuce the siz ■ of th*1 delegai ions of the older states in the East, a condition which would excite great opposition.” He asserts with great emphasis, that “as the cen sus has lieen completed and announced the duty of this house is to make the apportionment. Furthermore," lie ad- ilnl, “the republicans will lie here to make it." Seattle,Nov. 25—The application for the apfmiutinent of a receiver for the Oregon Improvement company was the one subject of conversation to-day among railroad men, and several points were brought out which help to ex plain its trouble. There was a general agreement among those who talked on the subject that the railroads, the building of which was the immediate cause of the company’s difficulties, were ouly built for the purpose of booming townsites aud afterward being sold to some of the great rail- road companies. It was stated that efforts Were made to sell the Beattie ami Northern road to the Great North ern, the Union Pacific, and Northern Pacific at a goo»l price. The Union Pacific had no use for live road. The Great Northern had the opportunity of buying the read, and could have made giMxl use of it, but th»* price asked was too steep. The Northern l’aeitic ilis'liiiedan outright purchase, and was satisfied with a ninety-niue- y«*ar traffic agreement. The road bail, however, served the purpose of boom ing property, ami has «loubtless en riched Borne officials of the < Iregon Im provement U»v. It travels**« some *>f the rieli-stt laud on the bound, both agricultural and mineral, and may soon become a rich source of revenue. With the Port Townseml an I Southern road the eircumstanc»*« are different. It is entirely isolate*! from any railroad system until it is ex tended to Olympia for a distance of eighty miles, for half this distant*»* it would traverse the base of the Olympia mountains, and would have to depend for business on the prislucts of the narrow strip of land along the shore of Hood's canal and along the valleys extemlmg back into the moun tains for a few miles. The settlement of this strip has only begun, aud while the mountains are reported to I»»* rich in minerals their develiqieiiient has not progressetl even so far as prospecting, and all that is known is the result of exploration made within the last year. The construction of a railroad through such a section offer«'*! n*> inducements to practical railroad tn**n, and it was found impossible to «ell the twenty miles of road from Port Townsend to Hooker's Lak«'. Thus the chance of re-selling there two roads disappeared, a«id borrowed money us«*d in building them, instead • >f being realized promptly with profit, IsN'ame a permanent iuv«*stm«'nt with only prosp«'.'tiv«* profits. The r>- eeivership MS'iiis to lie the result. Oue railroad official found anoth* r cause of troubh* iu winch t he Oregon Improvement company is engaged. It is operating railroads, steamers, coal mines, wharves, and sawmills, re quiring the st*rvice of men of the high est ability in each of those lines, to whom much is to be trusted, as th«* general officers c<>ul*l not I m * expect« <1 to be familiar with every branch of busiiu'ss, yet every proposal to buy any one of these properties has mot with a refusal, the officers being deter mined to sell altogether or none. 1’. P. Padd-ti, th«* auditor, said to.day that the company’s difficulties do not involve any cesRation of work except on new construction. All branches of its business which are now producing revenue will lie run as at present, in cluding railroads, steamers, coal tniuts, bunkers, and wbtirves. The con struction of new railroads will pro bably i»ea««*.

I’ears, the speaker said, grew better on low land than on high dry soil. S .1. S abler and Professor Hiigard joined in the iliscttssion. The con- :. iisus of opinion was that pears, prunes and plums flourished better upon low, clayey soils, while the peach | and the almond would'thrive on a dry ami sandy soil. 1. H. Thomas found that prime soil in Ttliare valley low swamp laud which bad claimed, and that trees grafte»! on pi'aeh i*M>t did much !>etter than upon martbolan root. Professor Hiigard spoke upon “Orchard Cultivation." The question of the use of the turning plow or the cult iv itor was determined by the depth of the surface soil. When the mirface soil was <1* ep it was not necessary to turn it, ami th»1 chisel cultivator whs ja-*t as good as the plow. The vege table matter in the surface soil was necessary to plant growth. The nit rogen supply was found in the surface soil ami was maue availal le by the action of microlies, which were com- p'irativ ly rar»» in the subsoil. The turning of the subsoil to th" surface should lie don»* with great c: ution. as otherwise the tre*»s might suffer. To make up the deficiency of humus It would l>e well to seed the orchard to some adaptable p hint, which tvathl l*e turned umler at the proper time to enrich the soil. 4 Call and Examine Them now on Exhibition at Martin 4 Harris’s ASHLAND, OR.

It was Ins custom to participate in the management of campaigns, to I*» “on the in sale," as the saying is; aud by that course he was enabled to see what contributed to success and what tended to defeat. 1 luring his nieiuor- able canvass with Douglas for the sen I ate it wasofteu remarked that he knew just what needed to be done in each locality, and that his advice in thi.t respect was worth as much as his speeches. He had an eye to sui'oees, aud I h ‘I i »'V*><1 in taking any advantage that the ne*di*n'nce *»r tt.cr*nip»i*t»ey I of the opposition leaders placed with in his reach.

It was shortly after 7 o'clock on Sunday eveuing, he relates, while sit ting with a nunil>er of gentlemen in the smoking room, they were thrown from their seals by a sudden stoppage of the train. The passengers instant ly calling to mind the fatal Salem ac cident of a few days ago were thrown into a turmoil, but us the train seemed to l>e still holding together they stood lip in their seats aud breathlessly awaited developments. A minute la ter and the cars were at a standstill. The conductor ritslied out of one of the foremost cars, and followed by a numl*er of the more excited passen gers, ran to the head of the train. There lying scarcely three feet liefore the cowcatcher he found two l»ow)- ders, each fully tlir«>e feet m diameter, in tlie middie of the track. 'With the aid of crowbars the olistrnc’ions were speedily removed. Al the point where the rocks were displaced the track winds along the edge of a precipice fully 4<*l feet in height, and should the engine have struck the obstructions the entire train would have l>een tumbled over, and uotlnng could have possibly saved it from destruction. The train consisted of some eight care, including four elee|*ers. all of which were well filled. The danger was discovered ill a rather peculiar manner. Frank Fox, an official connected with the <»|»er- ating department of the Southern Pa cific, was riding in the cab of the en gine. together with bis bride, and it Ijeiug a moonlight night, l*oth Wer** leaning out of the cab window enjoy ing the picturesque scenery along the curve.

It is customary for the track walker to inspect the way lie- fore every train, but whether he neg lected his duty on this occasion or the bowlders were displaced from their lotlgings after be had passed is not kuown.
