If you can't take these things with you, as soon as you re turn rinse the fish in fresh water, to re move tho sand and dirt, and salt heavily. Let remain in the brine, which need not be ohanged. Do not keep tho fish too long before salting." A Chinamon and a fifteen year old boy had a lively set-to in front of tho Occi dent yesterday afternoon. The China man showed more fight than his country men usually do and after pulling off three or four jackets he went after his man or boy a la Sullivan.

The maps of withdrawal lands in Ore gon and Washington territory by the Northern Pacific by construction of tho Cascade route, have been filed at the United States laud offices at Walla Wal la, W. T.. and La Grande, Oregon. The lands in Oregon earned by tho construc tion of this line, will be placed on the market early in the spring. There are a large number of settlers in the area with drawn, the majority of whom having settled prior to June, 18S2, will have the S reference right to purchase from the lorthern Pacific the land settled upon at $2.G0 per aore. There will be a social dance this even ing in the beautiful parlors of the Py thian ca6tle. The entertainment is given under tho Auspices of the Astoria Social club.

The old and young, the grave and gay will merrily dance tho hours away, and every one will have a good time. A joint memorial instructing tho sena tors and representatives in congress to oppose any and all attempts to renew the privileges now enjoyed by the Alaska seal company ought to pass an Oregon legislature promptly. The privileges have some time yet to run, but the pass age of such a memorial as "an expres sion," will bo worth a good deal. After instructing the senators and representa tives on this point, it will be a good thing also for tho levislaturo to advise them to vote in favor of--" Sumner's postal tele graph bill. This will be legislating for the "transmission of intelligence" among the people at reasonable rates, and will be a blow at the most powerful monopoly in the country. Xcws.

The fifteenth ballot for United States senator gave Hoult 33 Democratic veles: Hirsch got 28 Repub lican votes, Failing, i: Williams, 4, the rest "scattering." No one here can tell any more about the outcome now than tboj' could two weeks ago. Hirsch sticks at 23, and the "dark horse" has not yet apeared. SpecalHtion is useless. Ev- eiy one expects something to happen "to-1 morrow," h::u hns been so expecting for the last week. The legislature only has another we!; bnt seems in no hurry to choose. The candidates are not discussed much; the chief interest seems to be in whom the Democrats will vote for from day to day. They have complimented nearly every prominent Democrat in the state with, a vote and have only a few more ballots in which to remember their friends. It is conceded that in ability and experience Williams leads. The ideas in reference to his election if put into expression would bo somewhat this waj: "WilliamB is undoubtedly a man that would ably represent Oregon in a general way. If a subject of international importance came up for discussion 'the senator from Ore gon' could and doubtless would deliver a fine speech on the floor of the Semite. But ho would hardly troublo himself with little petty stato and local matters such as procuring appropriations, laboring with committees, etc. Tbcso things would be opposed to his dignity and ho could not be bothered with these little matters. Now, if we hud a dozen con gressmen like some states Williamswould be a splendid man to represent us, but wo are want of forcos. We only have threo in congress, counting both senators, and they mut all be workers. This is a young state, needy and importunate, and a man who is not too much taken up with a sense of his own importance will bo necessary. Htiice though Williams is an able man he has not succeeded in con vincing the pioaeut senator makers that he would be the best. Hirsch is making a determined fight. A good many think that he will win. He is confident himselt regarding the out come. Hare and Hill, from whom so much was expected, are not talked of much now. Hill's ability is conceded, but a good many havo not entire confidence in his political record. Tho "anti-monopoly" element represented by Boise seem to have become tired. Probably they are taking breath. There are whis pers in some quarters regarding tho prob abilit3of Henry Failing carrying off tho prize. Knowing ones claim to see in him the coming candidate. Nor is there lack of talk regarding John IL Mitchell. Ono thing is almost certiin: That if Mitchell's namo were tho rallying point of twenty Republican votes there ?re Democratic votes enough in the house to elect him. THK NEW ORLEANS FXPOMTION. Mr. J. C. Trulliuger, who recently got back from the Now Orleans exposition, is of the opinion that if it did nothing else than to induce a good feeling in placo of sectional hate that the exposition would be a success. As he says: "Not politi cians but business men meet there from all parts of tho nation; they interchange opinions; they see that interest demands a mutual concession; they realize that the true business policy, as a matter of busi ness, requires the laying aside of any other idea than that we are all citizens in common of one great country." Talking of the exposition buildings, etc, Mr. Trullinger says that he spent twenty-one days in seeing what was to be seen and is satisfied that he saw it all. He systematically went through aisle after aisle and building after building, and when ho had seen enough for one day let the rest wait till he got around to it. He considers it an entire success in every way except financially. Talking to Mr. A. L. Richardson, tho wealthiest man in Louisiana and ono of tho largest con tributors to the original exposition fund, he said to Mr. Trullinger. "Wo expect to lose from $700,000 to .$800,000; of this I myself will lose 70,000. But we expect to get an appropriation from the general government that will partly make up tho elicit." Mr. T. has several interesting souvenirs of his triii among others a large silk handkerchief made of silk woven and manufactured from the raw cocoon in bis presence, and with a representation in colors of tho exposition building woven in the fabric of the material. f Such a trip as his gives one a stock of ideas upon which they can draw at pleas ure for tLe remainder of life.

THE STATE LEGISLATURE. SENATE. Salem, Feb. IL Prayer by Rev. M. L. Rugg of Salem. Senate bill No. Ill, by Keed, to provide for pilotage on tho Columbia and "Wil lamette rivers, was taken up under spe- j cial order for the morning hour; an amendment had been adopted by tho sen ate, providing that the pilotage shall be at the back of, or under control of tho state, made with the intent to pre-1 rent pilots from Washington territory having the monopoly of pilotage. The rates of pilotage in "Washington tirrilory i are $8 and $10, and $C and $8 in Oregon. The bill provides for the buildinij of a pilot schooner of not le3s than fifty tons burden and at a oo.it not to exceed 10, 000; shall be built at the expense of the state, to be under control of the board, of pilot commissioners, to at all times i cruise outside the bar, unless prevented by weather. It further provides that the $10,600 shall be repaid from the earnings of the boat. Hare spoke iifuvor of the bill, and re ferred to tho difference between pilotage and towage and to the reasonable- rates charged by Capt. Flnvel for towage, which, he said were unsatisfactory to those who thought too much money was being made from it and wanted a change. The speaker said we want pilotage that will bring in vessels impartially, to pro vide a boat to cruise about outside the bar on tho lookout for vessels. Hare fur ther aaid that ho was in favor of wiping out the board of pilot commissioners, and to make pilots independent in their pro fession. Reed asserted that under the present law the pilots only kept a lookout from tho cape, the tugs lying in the bay, and that the weather often prevented an extended view for incoming vessels, and that now pilots, who are profes sional seaman, are under control of a board who are inexparienoed in the busi ness. The bill then passed. The senate took np the following house bills for consideratien: H. B. No. 215, by Chandler, to amend Baker City charter; read first time. On motion of Haines read a socoud time under a suspension of rules. Haines moved that tho rules be farther suspended, the bill read a third timo and placed on its final passago, which motion pro vailed. IL B. No. 180. by Smith, to amend tho charter of Forest Grove. On motion of Hare the bill was read first and second times by title under sus pension of rules and made a special order for Friday at four o'clock. H. B. No. 43, by Leinenwebsr, to pro ride for the appointment of a board of immigration commissioners, and tho ap propriation of money for immigration purposes. On motion of Myers, the bill was read a third time, now under suspension of rules; placed on its final passage. The bill provides that the government shall appoint a board of immigration commissioners, and for tho appropriation of $5,000 for 1885, and $5,000 for 18SG, of tho general fund for disseminating accu rate and trustworthy information re garding the resources of the state. Dorris objected to the bill, as he under stood tho matter was in the interests of tho board of trade of Portland, and the bill does not tell just how tho money is to be spent. Shupe inquired how it could be undar tho board of trade, while the bill states that it is to bo under control of a board of immigration. Simon and Hirsch replied that tho board of trade had nothing to do with it. Myers spoke ably in favor of tho bill. Miller also favored tho bill, and hoped southern Oregon would be represented in the board. Coleman was in favor of the board be ing located in Portland; passed" 10 to 12; absent 2. H. B. No. 158, by Leinenweber, to pro vide a boatman for the board of health at Astoria. On motion of Reed, read a second timo by title and referred to the oommitteo on commerce. H. B. No. 14, by Riddle, to provide for a bounty on wild animals, was reported by the committee on counties with amendments, which were adopted. Siglin offered an amendment providing for the destruction of black-tailed rab bits, an animal destructive to gardens and grain fields. HOUSE.

Twen ty men were at work and thirteen were killed outright, and six badly injured. Most of the men were married with large families. Si'IUNokikld, III., Feb. 11. None of the snow-bound legislators arrived to day, and there was not a quorum to vote for United States senator. Tho Demo crats insisted on a ballot, however, and the Republicans left their scats. Tho ballot gave Morrison 7.1 votes, 2 less than a majority. Dublin. Feb. 11. The attempt to shoot O'Donovan Rossa hxs already ceased to be talked about here. People in Ireland have been used to such strong doses of sensation that they pay little attention to tho flesh wound of a man who was looked upon as a fraud, and who is thoroughly discredited and dis counted. London, Feb. 11. Advices from Mad rid indicate that the Spanish govern ment is nervous oyer the chances of tho rejection of the Spanish-American treaty. It is stated that in order to conciliate the Democrats and the incoming admin istration in the United States tho Span ish cabinet is prepared to extend tho provisions of tho commercial treaty to tho Fhillippine islands, in addition to Cuba and Porto Rice, New York, Feb. 11. "You may stato that the next cabinet will bo chosen from the following ten gentlemen," said a sen ator who is very close to Mr. Cleveland, and who has recently seen him: ''Messrs. Bayard, Garland, Whitney, Vilas, Jones of New Hampshire, McDonald, Lawton of Georgia, Jonas, McClellan and Wal thall of Mississippi. I cannot stato "how they will be placed, but you can rest as sured that these aro the only names un der consideration by tho president-elect, and anything else is mero guesswork." Louisvilxk, Feb 11. A band of Ku KIux in Grayson county have been going tho rounds at night, wllippiug and other wise outraging persons who fell nndcr their displeasure. About seventy of them surrounded tho house of n fnmily named Forbes, but the Forbes brothers fired up on them and succeeded in scaring them away, killing James Sally, one of the Ku-Klux. It i3 said that they havo whip ped helpless women, and have by threats driven people out of the county. Not long since they whipped an old man named Tom Green nearly to death be cause he did not moyo away with his family. Bud Graham was also whipped so severely that it is thought he will not recover. Ottawa, Feb. 11. According to a re port laid by tho minister of militia be fore parliament, the total strength of Canada's little army is 37,000 men, over 80,000 being infantry and rifles. Of these only 1730 were drilled during 1834. The expenditures on account of militia last year were $1)33.000. General Middleton, commanding tho Dominion forces, in his report to the government strongly urges the strengthening of Victoria, British Columbia, in view of tho possibility of England being drawn into hostilities with other nations. The subject of an extradition treaty between Canada and the United States will engage the atten tion of tho present session. Chicago, Feb. 11. The mercury here registered eighteen degrees below zero at 8 o'clock this morning, but reports from points throughout the northwest indicate that tho weather is moderating rapidly. St. Paul is reported eight below and Win nipeg nineteen below. Des Moines re ports from points in Iowa steto trains, both passenger and freight, are beginning to move again this morning. In Illinois, however, tho blockade still continues. Two trains only left for the east this morning. Roads to the southeast aio still blocked and a large number of pas senger and freight trains aro snow-bound. The statement is made that thousands of cattle and hogs are frozen to death in abandoned freight trains. The New Witness Fee Bill. The bUl lately passed by the legislature abolishing witness fees in criminal cages tried in justices' courts is causing consid erable comment. Many consider it un constitutional, and others think it not the right means to reach tho end desired. Article 18 of tho constitution of Oregon reads as follews: ''Private property shall not bo taken for public use, nor the particular services of any man bo de manded without just compensation; nor except in case of the state, without such compensation first assessed and ten dered." It is more than likely that peo ple will refuse to leave their business to attend criminal trials without compensa tion. They will then be yanked before the court for contempt or some such thing, and then they will bring a suit to recover compensation. Oretjuninn. Throw Your Dinner Away.
