The run of fall salmon at Cosmo polia is reported good sevcnty-fie lo the boat, is what the Videfte reports. "God or Nature Which?" is the subject of the Rev. Mr. MacLalfer t y's lecture at the Unptist church to night. L. A. I-ioomis raised 10f0 bushels of oats this season. Jt will take all of that and 1500 bushels more to feed his horses.

A telegram from Mr. and Mrs. Kiritl, who left Portland l:ut Sunday, says they arrived at Minneapolis, Minn., on Tlairsdav morning. --Major Mac Murray will supervise the building of new barracks at Fort Canity, the contract for which was let to a Portland carpenter last week. The son of Yanderbilt is about to enter the newspaper business. The old man am probably stand it for awhile, but even a Yanderbilt's income has its limits. There are messages at the W. U. Telegraph office for the following per sons : Constantine Amouryance, Mrs. Daverson, Lai Gin Chung it Co., J. D. Hurst & Co. Seme fine salmon-trout are re ceived from the mouth of Lewis river, and from a point opposite come duck and snipe of fine lluvor. Teal seem to be scarce as yet. - The otlicial report of the inquiry lo the Forest Queeit near Tacoma, in dicates that the tug Hope,' which had had hold of her, lacked power to tow her, which necessitated letting the bark "o. when she drifted ashore. - -The plats of two suburban addi tions have been filed in Col. Speddpn's oflice one an addition to the town of Alderbrook, the other being called Summit addition, located east of the cemetery a home beyond the grave. Much surprise is expressed in the discover that Eastern brewers use hemlock bark in manufacturing beer. There is no apparent inconsistency. What will make good leather must necessarily exercise a preservative in fluence on the stomach. -John has got the itch." Omit "got." "ijarc signitics to be in pos session of anything. Get signifies to obtain possession. When one has got anything he ceases getting it, and from that time has it." Weston. eadcr. And 3'ct there exists no reason why the editor of the Leader should not extend a certain amount of sympathy to poor John. Lieutenants Greene and Allen went to Fort Canby yesterday, re turning last evening. The telegrapl: line works well. Lieut. Allen goes to Cape Flatter to-morrow to put in a similar signal service station at Ta toosh, a small island about three-quar ters of a mile from the shore. Vessels arriving off that coast will be reported at Seattle. --A most ridiculous clause in th school law, where it speaks of teach ors' examinations, is that no applicant for a certificate shall pay a fee unless successful; thus making the fee tie pend upon the ability of the appli cant, when, as any one knows that ever tried it, it is more difficult to examine an ignorant applicant than a proficient one. The Helicon arrived in in ballast from Australia jesterday. It is about a year since this fine vessel was hera from New York with railroad mate rial, clearing on her outward vo'age with lumber for Australia. Th Slienir is ready for sea; the Miles ar rived in from Gray 'a Harbor yesterday afternoon; tho Mclanathon. arrived i from San Francisco; the State is due to-day. Reward.

Life Saving Service. A San Francisco dispatch says : In terest in the live saving service has been considerably accelerated by re cent disasters on the northern const. The question of adequately sunplviii" the wants of service on the coast is in teresting prominent merchants, who, m a number of cases, have conversed with Major T. J. RIakeney on the subject, especially those who were passengers on the Queen at the timo the guests of the railroad were on the way north, and who are loud in praises of the services rendered by the Cape Disappointment station. They have interested themselves in an extension of the service on the coast. The rec ommendation made by Major RIake ney for an increase of stations in Oregon and Washington Territory and their full equipment with crews, boats and machinery, is still pending before the department at Washington, but beforj being curried out must be sanc tioned by congress, mid it is to that extent lejeinleiii upon the exer tions of the Pacific const senators. His idea is that auothor station .should ex ist in the vicinity of the ontrance to the Columbia river some twelve miles from the present ;-tat ion. on ihe op posite side of the shore. The boards of trade of Portland, Seattle and this city are cxitected to consider the matter. The Rritish Hog ship Sinfhure accompanied by the man-of-war Sop pho, loft. Victoria last Friday, and will probably cross in to-day. From here they go to San Francisco. The solid men of Montesano, W. T., are moving in the matter of hav ing a city government. And so it goes. One season, an almost unbroken wil derness; the next, a settlement, then a village, then a city, then "rings," then "jobs," and "ins," and "outs," and contracts and mayors, and all sorts of shenauigun, and a demand for "'reform," and the game goes on. The wharves of the Portland Flouring Mill company below Albina are very near completed. They occu py a water front of 500 feet, 200 feet eep. There are also two docks, each 200 feet long by 1)0 deep, with upper d lower Hour. Three railroad tracks have been laid on the wharves, con necting with the Northern PaciGc. Paquet fc Smith are doing the job, and the entire cost of construction will amount to upwards of $50,000. Standard. The recent census of Washington Territory :is returned by counties is as follows: King, 38,281; Whitman, R73; Walla Walla, 8005; Clark,G211; Pierce, (1177; Columbia. 5131); Gar field, 5000; Spokane, 5000; Lewis 4050; Klickitat, -1070; Whatcom, 30(18; Yakima, :;PB7; Thurston, 2700; Jefferson. 2350; Kitsap, 20G5; Cow litz, 2029; Snohomish, 1G08; Pacific, 1208; Chehalis, 2200; San Juan, 1080; Wahkiakum, 1014, Stevons, 7S0, Is land, 777; Mason, G5G; Clallam, 553; Skamania, 537. Oystering is the principal busi ness and the men are very busy get ting ready for the winter's trade. From 100 to 300 sacks of 100 pounds each was the weekly shipment for September. Shipments will increase as the season, advances. Uvsters are bought by residents here from all parts of the bay and reserved for winter shipping, as this is a central point and some of the best oyster ground lies near here; but the main reason is that this is one of the best harbors in all kinds of wind. A deep channel only 200 yards from shore, enables boats to et here at any stage of tide. The mud flats between shore and the chan ncl is just what the oystcrmau need to keep their boats on while oystoring Oysters, are, apparently, in as good order as ever before, liny Center Corr. Pacific Journal. Eastern Oregon and Washington papers express dissatisfaction regard ing the management of the railroad They are finding out that interest on bonds entails putting on the traffic "all it will stand." The Walla Walls Statesman says: "With a competi tion between three or more transcon tinental lines we could feel safe enough, but with a combination of them all under a pool, this agreement simply means that the interest on greater outlay must be paid by the patrons of the road. Wc assuredly must pav a tariff as the traffic will allow, and still more. For where w originally paid in tariff under one road system the profits or interest upon the capital invested, we must now pay such an additional amount a will pay the interest on all the tran - i continental roads, and that, we find, ! 1 1 enormous.

Should the Democratic party carry the next presidential election every Demo crat in the country would want this book without a doubt. Dinnie Acquitted. The examination of Donald Dinnie, charged with obtaining money under false pretenses, was concluded in the Police Court yesterday, and the de fendant discharged. Judge More- iikI , in rendering his decision, stated that the more he looked into the law the more convinced he became that this case didn't come within the stat ute. There had been no pretense in writing, the agreement being for something that was to occur in tho future, and unfortunately, there was no law to punish a person for simple lying. The Judge further remarked that if all show men were compelled to fulfill their published programme, cases ot tins kind would be more numerous. Standard. 13th. Take It Back. Let tne give you in a word a few facts in regard to the business of Port land from the forthcoming annual re port of tho board of trade. The pack of salmon amounted to G29,000 cases this year, valued at $2,7G9,000. This is done by Portland capital along tho Columbia, as described in a previous letter. The above is an extract from a Portland letter to the Springfield He- publican. J ho Uregoman complacently copies it, and tacitly endorses the truth of the statement. Iguorance is always excusable, but our Portland contemporary certainly knows better than the eastern correspondent that the above is a a mistake. e noticed the ocean steamer Ortqon on her up trip Wednesday put on full steam and strokesomo distance below the bar in order to carrv her over. It was very evident she just barely made it as we noticed her masts tremble, that plainly showed sho scraped along upon the sand. Had she run slowed down sho would have got fast. St. Helens Mist.
