THB OREGON LEGISLA.TTJRB.
Tlie Senatorial Fight
ISrj'oi u to Thk astoiiian.1
Salem. Oregon, Sept. 14,7:1") v. u
Yesterday, after the inaugural, both
houses adjourned till two o'clock to
morrow. There is nothing done or
talked of except the senatorial fight.
This evening it is red hot. and if the
caucus is staved ofl', as some are trying
for, it will only further intensify the
present feeling. The thing will be
settled one way or other by Mondaj'.
So many rumor aie ailoat that noth
ing can be learned beyond the positive
fact that about three-fourths of ill?
Republicans arc for Aiitchcll, and as
set t their intention to stay with him:
the reiiKiMidor are divided between
Hare and J Joise, and swear they will
not supptut Mitchell in any event.
On the part of the Democrats the
present tendency seems to be to hold
their own caucus and put up a Demo
crat, but of this nothing but surmise
can be obtained.

A New Dredger.
The new dredger invented by
Messrs. A. W. Ferguson and II. L.
Pike, of this city, has elements of
construction which make it of -.eat
value. The piimo cost is small, its
operations simple, and its effects are
claimed by the inventors to be in
every way satisfactory. By an ingeni
ous dovice a;v and water arc conjoint
ly employed to remove obstructions
in the river b'd, the eli'ect being to
not only cut the sand loose from iis
bed but also to raise it into the cur
rent above which floats it away. It
will float on the suifacD- or sc'Ue to
the bottom at tho will of the operator,
and can be effectively used in cilm or
storm.

gests that ps there wi'l likely be a

perhaps be advisable for intend'iig
bidders to cauy a lunch with them.

architecture a3 ever entered this
port; she is ono of the fleet now
bringing railroad material for the
N. P. R. R., via Cape Horn, and
is owned by W. II. Starbuck, of New
York. Two others arc on the way, tho
Jl". 11. Starbuck, whish left New York
May 27th, and the Jlcnry Vlllanl,
which sailed from the same port July
8th. The Atforiit was built at Bath,
Maine, in Sept., "75, and is of a class of
which we would be glad to see more in
the Columbia river. She is American
built throughout, and when she cam n
up the buy Iat Saturday with the
stars and stripes living m the alter-
noou sunlight, she attracted general
attention, n't so much by reason of
the fact that she is named after our
city, as on account of her fine ap
pearance. She is full rigged, double
decked, ana ot great cairyii'U ca
pacity, drawing twenty-two feet six
inches when she crossed the bar. She
having made several trips to San
Francisco, Singapore and Hongkong,
on which occasions she carried up
wards of 1,900 tons. Her present
load of rai'road matciial, including
locomotives, rails, bolts, spikes, fish
plates, etc., aggregates 1,802 tons.
She was built by ("Joss, Sawyer & Co.,
for John Patten, and was bonght by
her present owners last March, being
purchased with special reference to the
Columbia trade. She is 202 feet over
all, 21 feet depth of hold and 40 feet
beam, and has a icgistered tonnage of
1,305 tons.
Captain Anderson is proud of hia
vessel, and has good reason to be, for
from keelson to maintop she is stanch
and stout, combining beauty of out
line with the highest degree of strength.
On board, everything is scrupulously
clean, and in the cabin, which is oc
cupied by the captain and his family,
the fittings would compare favorably
with those of dwellings on the solid
shore.
After discharging the matciial, Capt.
Anderson will load wheat for Queens
town. Lieutenant Schwatka Swindled.
When .Lieut. Frederick Schwatka,
Third Cavalry, came to Washington
Territory, under orders to join tho
staff of Gen. Miles at Fort Van
couver, he gave a power of attorney to
William P. Hanscom to collect from
the paymaster-general 2,225. Fail,
ing an accounting from Hanscom,
Schwatka had his attorney arrested
and he disgorged 1,0CQ. Under the
statutes in force in the district, no
criminal suit against Hanscom will
hold, and Schwatka's only remedy is
1)3 civil suit. The money was the sum
appropriated by congress near the end
of its last session to make up to
Schwatka his full army yny during
the time he was abfent on the Frank
lin search expedition m the Arctic
ipgions.

In otrering to everyone throughout the

Companj is fully aware that it were
folly to do s'o if the new remedy did not
possess greater merit than any other ar

ness and constipation. But knowing
that every dQse will convince the one
who takes it of its enicacy, and make
another friend for the remedy which is
destined to become universal, they wish
everyone to try it. Mr. W. E. Dement.

Peruvian Bitter
Cinchona llubra. i
The Count Cinchon was the Spanish j
Viceroy in rem in new. i he countess,
his wife, was prostrated by an intermit
tent fever, from which she was freed by
the use of the native remedy, the Peru
vian bark, or. as it 'was called in the
language ot the country, 'Quinquina.'
Grateful for her recovcrj on her return
to Europe in 1G.T2, she introduced the
remedy in Spain, where it was known
under various names, until Liniueus
called it Cinchona, in honor of the lady
who had brought them that which w.
more pi ecious than the gold of the I ncas.
To this day. after a lapse of two hun
dred and fifty years, science has given
us nothing to take its place. Jt etrcetu
ally cures a morbid appetite for stimu
lants, by restoring the natural tone of
the stomach. It attacks excessive love
of Honor as it does a fever, and destroys
both alike. The powerful tonic virtue
of the Cinchona is preserved in the
Peruvian Bitters, which are as eueelive
against malarial fever to-day as tliev
wero in the days of the old Spanish
Vicerovs. We guarantee the ingredi
ents ot these bitters to be absolutely
pure, and of the best known quality.
A trial will satisfy j on that this is the
best bitter in the world. "The proof of
the pudding is in the eating."' and we
willingly abide this test. For sale by
all druggists, groceis and liquor dealers.
