II . K. Report
The annual report of the(. I.
& N. Co., just issued at Chicago
shows that the company has.
during the past year, completed
250 miles of standard gauge road,
and before .Taiiuan 1, 1882, the
president expects that 300 miles
of new road will be completed and
in active operation. There have
been constructed 1464 feet of Howe
truss and 11,268 feet of trestle.
All questions of right of way have
been settled at a comparatively
small cost to the company and
with scarcely any litigation. The
rjght of way across the L'matilla
Indian reservation on the Baker
City Hue was amicably settled at
the council by agreement on the
pare of the company to pay the
Indians 2 "0 per acre for all wild
lands, and 2 T per acre for
cultivated land necessary for the
roadway and depot grounds located
within the reservation, the whole
eost of which will be about 43,
000. When all deliveries shall
have been made under the existing
contracts, the railroad equipment
of the company will consist of 51
locomotives, IS passenger cars, 4
Pullman sleeping cars, 2 baggage
ears. 2 combined baggage, mail and
express cars, 600 covered freight
cars, T00 flat cars, 100 stock cars
and 40 hand cars. There were ex
pended during the year the fol
lowing sums:
For railroad construction. 4iM7,4 H
l or other constructions C41h 91
For railroad equipments 290,538 Ro
For other equipment.... . .. 116.C70 71
The several lines operated by
this company represent a total of
1.191 miles. The business of the
company for the year i a, follews:

Against 147,S17 passengers and
379,840 tons of freight carried in
1879-1880, there were carried in
1880-1881, 16;,7S7 passengers and
023.025 tons of freight, showing
an increase of 19,90 passengers
and 243,181 tons of freight.
The repoit enlarges somewhat
on the consolidation recently ef

Sensible.
Tin: level-headed Prof. Huxley,
in a recent college address, savs:
'Quickness in learning, readiness
and accuracy iu reproducing what,
islearned,industry,endurance,these
are the qualities, mixed in various
pjoportionc, which are found in
buys who win prizes. Xow there
i.- not the smallest doubt that
every one of these qualities is of
great value iu practical life. Upon
whatever caieer you may enter,
intellectual quickness, industry,
and the power of bearing fatigue
aie three great advantages. But
1 want to impress upon you, and
through you upon those who will
direct your future course, the con
viction which I entertain, that, as
a rule, the relative importance
of the.se three qualifications is not
rightly estimated, and that there
are other qualifications of no less
value which are not directly tested
by school competition. A some
what varied experience of men
has led me, the longer I live, to
set the less value upon mere clev
erness; to attach more and more
importance to industry and to
physical endurance.
. "Indeed, 1 am much disposed to
think that endurance is the most
valuable quality of all: for indus
try, as the desire to work hard,
does not come to much if a feeble ;
frame is unable to respond to the
desire. Everybody vrho has had
t(J make his way in the world must.
know that while the occasion for; and prone out of husiMi-..-.. The
intellectual dibit of a high order fund rens:iniiir were divided
rait jt constantly happens tliHtlamoni the meiniei of the state
a man's future turns upon his he-ieonimittee. The mriv i. the moil
inir able. To a lawvor, a phvsi-
cian, or a merchant, it may be
everything to be able to work six
teen hours a day for as long as is
needful without giving up.
Moreover, the patience, tenacity
and good "humor which are amonjj
the most important qualifications
for dealing with men, are incom
patible with an irritable brain, a
weak stomach, or a defective cir
culation. "It any one of 'Oit prize-winners
were a son of mine, and a good
fairy were to offer to equip him
according to my wishes for the
practical life, 1 should say, M do
not care to trouble you for any
more cleverness; and oh, if you
please, a broad, deep chest and a
stomach of whose existence he
shall never know anything," I
should be well content with the
prospects of a fellow so endowed.

"SYii.vt Ls now said about the la
bor system in the Sandwich
islands, might have been paid with
as much truth any time since that
country has been under what is
called a civilized government. It
is not and never has been a free
countiy; the natives have never
had the right to go abroad and the
contract system has always been
enforced. There has always been
complaint among the planters
about the scarcity of workmen and
the importation of Chinamen
was going on before the treaty of
reciprocity was proposed. The
government of the United States
looks upon such contracts as a
species of slavery, as against public
policy, and in negotiating the
treaty, there should have been n
clause declaring against them. As
long as the humble Kanaka and
the Chinamen were the only suf
ferers nothing was said about it,
but now the same system is ap
plied to white people who have
been imported from Europe, and
there will be another demonstra
tion of the fact, often before
proven, that the Caucasian will J
not long be held in bondage.
Tiik usual newspaper comment,
on our public school systen are
being made. One point is this:
too much is attempted to be
taught. Uoys and girls should
learn what thev are to use when
out of our schools 3'early with their
heads, crammed and their hands
j empty, wheii a few bright, clear
ideas of the day and time are what
they. need for immediate use. An
otherpoint: Thesuccessof a teach
er depends upon the interest he
takes in ins work, and that interest
is in direot proportion to the know
ledge that he himself possesses;
hence a primary requisite is good
teachers and first-clasi teacheis
are jut like all other first-class
workmen; they should have fir-t-class
salaries.
'Tis singular 10 note the pha-fs-in
the agricultural prosperity of
various portions of the earth, and
how, in turn, what injures one sec
tion benefits another, and vice
versa. During- our civil war for
tunes were made by growing cot
ton ia the Sea islands and in India.
Costly machinery xvas ordered,
vast outlays incurred, only to bring
ruin on the proprietors at the re
turn of peace to our country in
18G"). And now the Russian
wheat exporters are being- ruined
by the great shipments of wheat
from the United States, and the
piles of wheat along the lines in
the interior form to the fanners a
j sad. contrast o the times when
Odessa was the grain port for
Europe.
The Republicans will have con
trol of the next House of Repre
sentatives by a majority of four.
In the Senate 'tis a question as to
who will have the ascendency,
though the administration part'
seem to have the most points in
their favor.

real abuses have been brought to

instrumentality. There was much
nonsense in its demands, but
there was also a irea: deal of
