The commercial editor of the S. F. Bulletin, in a recont article, says that a correspondent furnishes him a state ment of tho canned salmon shipments from "San Francisco and Portland." Further on he gives tho European shipment of canned salmon "from Portland," for 1882, as aggregating 405,000 cases. "We -would rejoice to be vouchsafed information so trusty as tho above. The canned salmon ship ment "from Portland," for '82, aggre gates tho exact and even figure of 500 cases, .shipped on the IAzzic ,JJcll, August 10th. The remaining 404.500 were loadod at and cleared from Asto na. Will the S. F. Bulletin man just this once, by waj of variety make the correction. No Hurry. Governor Moody has not yet signed the net authorizing tho establishment of a paid fire department in Portland. It is presumod ho will in good time, but there is no rush about the matter. The boys who have served tfie city so long and well (some of them, by the way, are elderly boys now) need time to make the necessary arrangements for vacating tho houses, disbanding, etc. The Stardard thinks it will seem kind of queer to them this winter to beablo when they hear tho big bell ring to turn over and go to sleep thinkiug that men are paid for rush ing around in 4hc rain and mud and spoiling thei clothes and risking their lives and limbs to save the property of their fellow sinners.

The Commercial Situation- Talking of fi eight qud prices the Willamette Farmer says: "At the present time the wheat market is literally stagnant all over the world. The news from England on Wednesday was that the market was firm, but no important transac tions. It is a stale of thing here. Wheat ; fiiiot.ihln .it Sl.:i2i to l.r3 net cental at Portland, and on that basis in the vallev towns. People in the country are generally waiting to get 80 cents per bushel for their wheat, which is not now obtainable. Very little done, because exporters say they cannot see any profit in tran sactions at that basis. Walla Walla wheat cannot be worth over $l.i) per cental at most. "Charters remain at 2s u"d for wood, and 7i for iron. There is nothing doing and little demand f.r tonnage. San Francisco freights are a little tinner than a week ago, and quotable at ten shillings less than from the Columbia river-say -ll's (id for wood and 45$ for iron. The quotation for No. I shipping wheat is $1.05 per cental. With freights at 10s per ton less, they pay fully 12i cental more, and our No. 1 wheat is worth fully 7i- per cental more thau No. 1 Cali fornia, so we are brought face to face with the same old fact that all matters well considered, the California pro- j ducer gets a better price in proportion, than does the Oregon farmer. "Ten shillings less freight U 7i cent per bushel in his favor. Then, if each country's grain i3 the same value, the California farmer should get $1.C0 when the Oregon farmer gctsi?l.D2i. Hut we see that the California farmer really gets fcl.155, and as our wheat is worth 7i cents per cental and the mo3t in England, that makes it evident that with tho difference in freights made up by the superior n unlit v ot our "ram, our California neighbor gets 12A cents per cental more than we do for wheat.'" That "same old fact" will obtain till wheat is shipped, as it should be, from Astoria. That 12h cents per cental that, "our California neighbor" gets mora than his Oregon competitor, represents what overy wheat raiser in the Northwest loses on every hundred pounds of wheat he 'sells because of the non-improvement of the Columbia river bar. The Fire' Drill. Promptly at four o'clock yesterday afternoon the lire bell sounded and the several companies responded to the call. The drill took place on Chenamus street.

Bv 31onday, the 0th Inst JThe Portland Tug Boat Company.? En. Astekia.n: The pretended benefactors of thai Columbia mer commerce uon t say anything about the towage, their only cry is, "reduce pilotage." The Port land board of trade pilot bill reduces pilotage from 8 and $10 to $G and $8 inward and from S8 and $10, to So and 7, outward,'Hve per cent. off. This is less than San Francisco rates. Lst any man with common sense i comnarc the two ports and" decide. which pilots ought to be the best rc-j munerated. A3 an example we will ,ako .ho Amoricand.ip Dauntles,, ,1,. had made arrangements with an English ship to take her ballast and the- said English shin was to haul alongside of the ship Dauntless and put it on board the other vessel; the two ships to divide expenses. The pretended benefactors f commerce came lorwaru anji msisieu inai me ballast be discharged on the dock and carted to the American ship,aud made the captain of the American ship pay 2.25 a ton when it was offered to him for fifty cents per ton; and further, compelling the English captaiu to pay the usual rates for discharging. This was done by tho Portland ship pers whof present cry is "reduce pilotage and give the fai mer more for his wheat.'" The independent pilots on the Co lumbia river bar, now cruising outside the bar, do not propose to submit to the outrageous demands of such a class of men, but run independent of all tug boats, and only ask a fair day's pay for a uood day's work. lUi: Pilot. Northern Pacific Plan3. Henry Yillard, in his last report to the stockholders of the Northern Pa cific railroad company, says in refer ence to Portland's terminal facilities: A company known as the Terminal Company will be organized in the for mation of which the Northern Pacific will participate, to build a union pas senger and freight depot at Portland , and provide other terminal facilities for all the roads centering at that point. Grounds for the union depot have been purchased in North Port land, immediately adjoining tho busi ness portion uf the cit The plan contemplates a passenger depot cover ing eighteen acres fronting on the city nark, and an adjoining freight depot covering thirty acres, with an avail able length for racks of 2,200 feet and an equal length of excellent river front. The Northern Pacific trains from the east will cross the Willam ette on a bridge with double track, and thence enter the Union depot. Tho trains from Pngct sound will run directly into the depot. Equally good facilities aro provided for the entrance of the Oregon Railway & Navigation Company's trains and those u tho east and west side roads of the Ore gon it California Company. In fact the location and plans fully cover all present and future needs in the way of -railway terminal facilities and con nections at Pn Hand: On the east, side of the ricr pur chases have been made of about 240 acres for the machine shops of tho several roads. On the river front of this tract will be erected coal bunk ers, a warohoti30 and a wheat eleva tor. A dry dock is now in course of construction there, and a large wharf for the accommodation of ocean steam and sail vessels of deep draught is boing built with which tho tracks of tho several companies will have connection. A bridge with two draws will be built across the Willn mettcfrom Portland to East Portland. Arithmogrypli. 1 am composed of 8 letter. My 1, 0, 7, S ia in every seaport.
