Robert Crawford says that if men seeking homes knew that there was good land in that section to be taken up they would come and settle on it. He says: "Begin on Mcluunahan's creek in Clatsop county and go up oight or ten miles, there is room for quite a settle ment; good laud, rich and good for stock and crops. Still farther on, tho north fork of the Nehalem is up land, which will produce good grain as well as pasture if it was cleared. Another good locality for settlement is God's valley, located be tween the north and south forks of the Nehalem. It ia about five miles long and one and one-half wide, with a splendid creek running through it, and can fur nish good pasture forstock. It has some prairie and open laud in it: these lands are not yet surveyed but it is stated by Robert Harris, united States deputy sur veyor, that there will be a survej' made next summer, commencing at township 3 N, R 9 Y, and ruuning north and oast. There are six or eight miles hero of good land to be settled, but on account of tho railroad grant! this land was rejected. Now as the grant has gone back to the government it is open for settlement There are valuable deposits in it which I found while hunting through this region the last fourteen years; there are copper, load, iron and the best of stone coal. There are excellent lumber, game and fish. Notwithstanding we have our draw backs; we badly need a wagon road, and in my judgment it would pay Clatsop county to make one through their county to tho line of Tillamook county. It would certainly bo the cause of settling thfs country and give us in Nehalem a chance to trade in Astoria, as it is the best mar ket in the state for us in Tillamook. A road of some kind would bring saw mills in here and lumber, which we all need very much.''

KT AL. A Ufcrw hj Judse Smith in the Circit Court Yfsterdaj. A decree was made by Judge Seneca Smith yesterday in the case of M. J. Kinney vs. 12. D. Heatley et al., the effect of it being that on the payment of S17, 000 the plaintiff may recover iussession of the extensive property known as The Astoria Packing Co.'s premises. At the time suit was comiuuiced the trustees and creditors together claimed .$"i9!K),73. The Salum Flour Mills Co., who wore par ties in the suit. gjt S10,C24.48 in adjust ment of their claim, which admits of other and satisfactory adjustment. The decree is looked upon as a "victory for II. J. Kinney. The case has been hi litiga tion for three years and has occasioned considerable interest. It appears that in October, 1876, the British ship Titan sailed from here for Liverpool "with salmon and beef canned at Kinney's cannery in this city. Dpon her arrival in Liverpool in March, '77, the agents there made demands for heavy reclamation charges, alleging that the salmon had spoiled uu tho passago and was almost wholly putrid. A salmon consignment on tbobark Albert about the same time brought a similar report and claim. These claims were made in tho summer of 1877, and were in thb main acceded to bv Mr. lvinnev. W. t J. Lockctt, Dickson, De Wolf Co.. N. len Bosch .v vo., and Henry Coubrouh were the parties having tho principal claims. In March, 78, Mr. Kinney exe cuted a trust deed to his creditors, the trustees being E. D. Heatley et al. In May, 78, two mouths after he had made this deed of trust. Mr. Kiunev met Henry Olson here who had been second mate of the lttan on her voyage m 18G 77, and from him learned that tho weath er had been such as to justify a belief that the salmon was spoiled by reason of sea damage and not from any defect in tho salmon itself. Olson's testimony was strong on this point, tho result being that an inquiry developed a state of affairs which Mr. Kinney deemed justified him in notifying J. W. Grace of San Francisco not to pay these claims. Ho had ap proved the claims six months before, but claimed that tho subsequent information given him placed the matter in an en tirely different light. Upon this suit was brought, and to net the matter properly into court the trus tees, Heatley, et al., were made defend ants in the matter. There were twenty different items and charges in the matter, the whole involving something over half a million dollars. C. W. Fulton, F. J. Taylor and Raleigh Stott were Mr. ICin noy's attorne3-s; Killin &. Moreland and Williams, Durham &. Thompson repre sented the defendants. The suit has been pushed and fought with persistency by both sides; countless folios of testi mony and printed briefs have been intro duced, depositions and evidence from all over the world have been procured and from tho mass of testimony with J. Q. A. Bowlby, the referee in the matter, the above has been compiled. Following is the substance of Judge Smith's decree: It is ordered, adjudged and decreed by the ceurt: That upon the payment by plaintiff into this court the sum of S16.23L18. tho said trustees execute and deliver to plain tiff, a good and sufficient deed, conveying said premises to plaintiff. it the plaintiff does not within days from this date pay into court said sum. then it is ordered and decreed by the court that said premises be sold as upon execution and that tho proceeds be applied to the payment of the costs and expenses of the sale and to the payment of said sum of $10,231.18 duo on said claims, and, if such proceeds be not suf ficient to pay said sum in full, then that such proceeds be applied in payment of said claims hereinbefore allowed, pro rata. It is further ordered and decreed by the court that upon the payment by plain tiff of said sum into court, if said trustees do not within days thereafter exe cute and deliver tho deed as" hereinbe fore required, that this decree shall in that event stand in lieu of such deed and shall have all the force and effect of suoh deed, and shall operate to convey to plaintiff all the interest that said trustees and said defendants had in and to said premises at the commencement of this suit.

"For a young man I have done pretty hard scraping in the Rockies and mining regions of New Mexico and Arizona, but a few days ago I had tho worst scare in my life in the lumber districts of northern Michigan.'" The speaker was a young man of some 27 years, dressed in rough-and-ready style and wearing a frizzly tow beard. He shifted the posi tion of his broad shoulders as he loinged ! back in an eay chair in the Sher .;:.

As aoon an w i started down my hair began to stand on end, for the horses galloped like fury to keep ahead of the lobs which were slewing all over the road. I got ko paralyzed and nervous that when we approached the turn I reined in too suddenly. I felt the front bobs jump one way and the back bobs the other. The hind ends of the logs whistled through the air like willow switches, and I heard tho loggers yell: 'For God's sake, .'

When I struggled back through tho snow I found the horses trying to kick loose from tho few bits of harness that dan gled about them, the bobs tangled around the trunk of a small pine treo, and the logs scattered to the four winds. One logger crawled back to tho road with a fractured leg, and the other soon fol lowed with a dislocated shoulder. Out had struck a tree and the second had landed against a stump. They after wards told me in camp that theso things were not at all unusual, and, as I had some nrettj heavy bruises myself, I con cluded that I was not made to boss a lumber camp.
