SENATOR GROVER ON THE
RIVER AND HARBOR BILL
The Necessities of Oiegon
Senator Giovcr and family have
lptn sppnflirur a feu weeks, bince
t he adjournment of- congiess, at
Cottage City, a favoriu seaside
iosoit of Xcw England, on
Maltha's Vineyard Island Mass.,
where a correspondent of the
Boston Herald found htm. After a
few preliminaiy remarks about the
general character of the legisla
tion enacted by the present con
gres1", which the senator thought,
on the whole, to be of great prac
tical benefit to the country, lie
was asked to give an opinion of
the liver and haiborbill, and par
ticulaiy to its effect upon his own
state. In icnlv. the seanator
said: "The journals of the coun
try seem to be divided upon the
utility and fairness of the bill.
In New England. have noticed
they are generally opposed to it,
but in the south and west it is
legaided sis the most important of
all acts of congicss. The bill
gives my own state of Oregon
$500,000. Ve didn't get as much
as we expected, or thought wo
ought to have, yet our delegation
.sustained the bill heartily on ac
count of its general features, and
the especial benefit accruing to
our own state. The Columbia
liver drains one-tenth of the area
of theJUnited States, and, next to
the Mississippi river, is the largest
in North Ameiica. It runs in its
general course due west, parallel
with the lines of commerce. It
breaks throught the Cascade
range, which is an extension of the
Sierra Nevada range ol California,
and constitutes the only water
way for an immense aica of west
ern country tributary to the com
merce of the Pacific coast. The
point of passage of the river
through the range, the elevation
of which is about 1000 feet, is
narrow, and is traversed by a rail
road. In this pass, or gorge, are
the rapids which obstruct the navi
gation of the river. The present
liver and harbor bill makes an ap
propriation to continue the im
provement of these rapids, begun
by the national government some
yeais ago, by means of a canal
and locks. The sum allotted by
the bill for this purpose is &JG0,
000. We asked for .$000,000, and
the senate granted the amount,
but the house refused to concur.
That improvement is vital to a
water outlet to a vast wheat region,
and to the navigation of the upper
Columbia and its branches, an ex
tent of nearly 1000 miles. The
whole area is absolutely at the
mercy of a single railroad corpo
ration, unless those rapids, and
possibly one or two others, are im
proved by the general government.
The lower Columbia and the bar
at the mouth of the river receive
in this bill 100,000. Tt ought to
have been $1,000,000. "Why, con
sider, when in the future the mouth
of the river and the lower navijra
tion are improved, the former will
constitute the entrepot of an im
mense commerce from China anil
Japan, destined to New York and
Boston. The tea and other com
mercial products ol Japan and
China, for example, will find their
nearest line of transit by the
Northern Pacific both to the other
states of the Union and to Europe.
Wo claim, therefore, that the east
is directly interested in the im
provement of the rivers and har
bors of the far west."
But, do you think, Senator, that
the general government should
assume the entire burden of these
improvements?"
4'In general, yes. Oregon has
already improved the falls of the
Willamette river to the extent of
500,000. This river, .as you
know is a branch of the Columbia,
and is longer than the Ohio. Of
the sum mentioned, the state fur
nished "200,000, and private enter
prise the balance. Bur, as it has
been a traditional policy of the
"overnment to make all such im-
o
provements in aid of commerce,
my stale join with other states
in a demand that it should con
tinue to do so in the future.
In Oiegon we have a small
population, and therefore we can
not claim so largo a bounty fioni
the general government as more
densely" populated stales, but we
are rapidly growing in every way.
From the upper Columbia, we send
yearly 100,000 beef cattle to the
Boston, Chicago and New York
markets. We ship annually
.3.000.000 woith of canned and
barreled salmon taken in the Co
lumbia river. We send each year
7,000,000 to S,000,000 pounds of
wool abroad, and also a consider
able amount of gold and silver.
And, more than all this, we expoit
every year 10,000,000 bushels of
wheat. It is no exaggeration to
say that this item of our exports
will increase in "20 years to 100,
000,000 bushels. So soon as the
Northern Pacific and Oregon
Short Line of the Union Pacific
are completed, and both will be by
next year, ami Portland is in di
rect communication with the cast,
we expect to fill the upper Mis
sissippi valley with apples, pears
and other fruits that grow so abun
dantly in Oregon, and many. of
them will fiti.d their vy to the
great matkets of the Atianhu coast
and even to Europe."'
The Diffeience in National Grati
tude. When the facts of the Pension
Bureau are taken into considera
tion it does not appear that there
is much ffiound for the oft-ieneat-ed
reproach that "republics are un
grateful." From 1S01 the com
mencement of the civil war to
date our government has paid the
enormous -inn of G0,G41,32l in
pensions. The amount paid for
the hist fiscal year was ." 120G,
2S0. The greater part of these
vast disbursements have gone to
the rank and file. The gratitude
of monaichial governments i. often
more conspicuous. They take up
their great generals, decorate them
and give them giants of money.
But their gratitude is not so gen
eral and all-pervading as ours,
which reaches to the bottom the
men who have done the real fight
ing. Nor can the. higher officers, with
us, be said to be neglected. The
do not get as much as the corres
ponding class in Europe. But they
are decently provided for, and that
is about all that should be expect
ed. Tt is only in the aggregate
that republican gratitude can be
appreciated. it men assumes
colossal features. The details, when
taken separately, look small and
perhaps mean. Bat it is the cor
rect thins after all. We muv not
have generals bedizened with
medals and orders, but we have a
rank and file tenderly looked after
and comfortably settled Bulle
tin.
A Plaint
There are, it is said, 200,000
sheep in the mountains between
Susanville and Heppner, says the
Grant County News, the Uma
tilla sheep owners arc not at all
bashful about bringing their sheep
i into that country to eat up the
- range, while they pay taxes m
Umatilla county, although their
I llocks remain there but a few
j months of the year.

A Famine in Iceland.
The Icelanders, an ancient and
interesting people, aie threatened
with a tenible catastrophe. The
winter of 1SS0-81 was severe. The
summer which followed was cold,
and not more than half the usual
grass crop was raised. The next
winter was no better, and thete
being insullicient food for the cat
tle and sheep, they were turned
out to battle with the elements,
and of course many died. During
the summer jut passed the bays
anntl inlets have been choked with
the drift ice from the coast of
Greenland, which has blighted the
hay harvest in half the island.
This means the death of most of
the stock, and as the people aie
pasloial, depending on their llocks
for income from abioad and a par
tial supply of food at home, .star
vation must ensue unless the gen
erous of other nations send ample
supplies to be distributed through
out tiie island before the snows
make the roads to the interior im
passable. Tt has been stated that
supplies of .food must reach the
southern ports before the end of
September to be generally avail
able. That date is close at hand,
and the food needed, which
amounts to twenty-four hundred
tons of grain, preserved meats,
milk, etc., has not, so far as is
known, been forwarded.
The population of the island is
72,000, of whom half are in dan
ger of dying an appalling death I
bv starvation. The favored dis
tricts have little to spare. In -1S?4
Iceland celebrated its thousandth
anniversary. In that year many
strangers visited it, and large con
tributions were made to the peo
ple. A volcanic eruption in 1S7G
was considered a great, calamity.
Since then the inhabitants have
enjoyed a considerable degree of
prosperity, sending abroad J 0,000
sheep per annum and 1,727,000
pounds of wool. A catastrophe
like the present has not been con
sidered possible more than once
in a century. In 187G it was pro
posed to transfer the entire popu
lation to Alaska. Their removal
to some portion of the Canadian
dominion not far from Athabasca
is practicable. The climate of the
region would suit them, while its
fertility would seem like tropical
abundance compared to their bar
ren lava fields. Tile climate in the
vicinity of the polar circle is grad
ually changing. The winters will
never be milder, and it seems like
a useless waste of labor .and hu
man vitality to attempt to main
tain liTe among perpetual ice and
snow while moie productive re
gions are appealing for healthy,
hanh and reliable populations
like these starving Icelanders.

The Short Line.
The surveys of the O. 1. & X.
Co. and Oregon Short Line clash
on ljiirnt river. The Grande
Iiontle Post has this to hay: Major
Keefer, who has just at rived from
Burnt liver pass, states that the
Oregon Short Line Co.'s right-of-way
man has been in the neighbor
hood of Burnt river pass for the
last few days watching the opera
tions of the O. K. & N. engineers.
It is stated that Short Line men
will also bo on the grounds soon,
although a practicable route can
be found outside the pass.
