oreas in the price of wages will more
than rnnko the difference in the piico of
logs, and allow the logger a small margin
of profit.

THE VRKEST blTTATION.
The salmon eeason has ubout begun;
more boats were out j eaterday than any
day since the 1st, nnd by the 23th it is
expected that 0 very cannery on tho river
will be running. The market is de
pressed and it is not plain just how the
canneries can even make expenses. Noth
ing but the closest economy, the most
careful management and n fair share of
good luck will enable any cannery on the
river to show a balance on the credit side
of the ledger next August. There is no
encouragement in the outlook and the
more one hears the darker appears the
prospect. The few scant sales that have
been made are at low, unsatisfactory fig
ures. wouia De pieas3nter to wilts
dijJerently concerning our leading indus
try, but such are the facts as 3t present
existing.
Market reports are the reverse of reas
suring. Seventeen shillings and seven
teen, sir are stateU to be current figures .
Assuming that seventeen shillings were
the ruling rate it is plain that the margin
between actual loss and the possible mak
ing of expenses is Tery slight. In this
connection a few figures aro in order.
At 49i, the ruling rate of exchange,
seventeen shillings a case means 81.10.
Thirly shillings a ton, freight, is $7,235.
At twenty-seven cases to the ton, the
freight would be 2G.S cents: five per cent.
commission means 20.5 cents more, so,
that leaving out of tho question any con
tingencies, the possibilities of reclame
tion, interest, or anything else that may
transpire, the seventeen shillings means
fcS.fttf n case, provided that the rate of
exchange remains at 49X- Should it be
4DJ6 this way, tho net returns fall still
Jower, and when tho Columbia canuer
gets his account sales, at the rate taken
as the basis of this calculation, he may
consider himself Inckv if his fish net
him $U.G0.
'the canneryman at these figures can
not see hia way cloar to go in very heavy,
especially with tho English market over
stocked and a probabihtr of being com
pelled to dribble out little COO case lots
in this country as the demand calls. This
is why cannervmon are slow nboal mak
ing a basis for the price of fish and why
a good many of thorn would rather lie
idlo than make contracts that they fear
may break thern worse than they are
now.
TltE OF TWO rims.
In the curly pirt of 'Jt Henry I.rri-,
Jas. Glover and TI103. Crowley stolen
scow in Port land and a quantity of pro
visions and started down the Willamette, j
and out on tho Columbia, finally bring
ing up at the month of the Cowlitz.
They wero followed by the officer and
surprised, oach one striking out lor hini
sels. They met afterwards t thw head
waters of the Cowlitz and after wander
ing some time Harris was caught, tried
and sentenced to three years in the -ni-tentinry.
The other two were never
heard of till last week when the famous
cae of Peters vs. Woods coming up, "one
of the witnesses mentioned n certain
"Cockne' Tom' as being one of the se
lect coterio that graced the scow with
his genial presence.
Sheriff ltoss and Chief Loughry pricked
up their ears at this name and nfter some,
telegraphing concluded that Tom was
wanted.
Aocordinnlv a -toss of officer went nn
on the Gen. Custer last Sunday, having
occasion to arrest soma others and armed
with a decnption of Crowley had little
trouble in identifying their man.
Yesterday he gave an account of him
self. Said when the officers chased him
he got across the Columbia nnd went to
Tillamook.then to Pacific county whore

Yesterday Chaplain Stubbs had two of
Jim Turk's loarding houie runners ar
rested for soliciting fin board a ship be

plead guilty before Judge Deady and

They then swore out warrants against

of which has not been reached. Mer

The Ilwaoo steam navigation company
have begun the construction of a new
hull to take the place of the old Gen.
Canby. Her machinery which is A 1, will
be placed in the new boat and will when
completed make a more commodious boat
than the old one. L, A. Loomis, who was
here a few days ngo, informs ns that if
there is business to justify, he will placo
either tho new boat or the Gen. Miles on
the route between the Harbor and Port
land, making two trips per month, run
ning at stated times, carrying freight and
passengers. Transportation accommoda
tions of this nature are just what we are
needing, and we trust that business suffi
ciently large to warrant tho compauy to
rnu the boat day 120 tonb per month at
least can be secured. It is estimated
that ns high as 700 tons of freight per
montu naie been brought in the naroor
for homo consumption, and it is reason
able to surpo that one-half of this
amount would come from Portland and
Astoria if facilities were afforded. Che

TKKT Sl,UjK(UT"T VKOrKKIUM'S.
About twenty years U!o, a,6 the Or
yoniant William L. Adams, now of Hood
Hirer, wa-t collector of cu3tums at Asto
ria, and a large huiu of money having :ic
cumulated in Ids hands he was ordered
by the secretary of the treasury to take
it to San Francisco and place it in the
United States depository there. He
placed about $ 20,000 in coin in his trunk
and the remainder of the money, which,
was in greenbacks, in hit pockets and
took pejissge on tho steamer fua San
Francisco, to carry out the order he hsd
received. On the trip down, while he
was at his dinner, one of the stewards
cut a hole in the bottom ot the trunk
and carried othe com in a loj bucket.
He was some jqme afterward arrested in
New Fork, a portion, soar 3?iVJ or so,
of the money recovered,md the thier"
convicted and punished. Mr. AJams,
according to general opinion, was sot o
blame in the matter. He had been or
dered to personally take the money to
San Francisco. It would have been ille
gal to send the money by expr&S3 or to
have put it into bills of exchange, if it
had been possible, or to have placed any
one else in charge of the money. An
effort was made to have congress" -mm u
bill for the relief of Mr. Adams to free
him from all obligations to the govern
ment in the mutter, and the effort hns
been renewed at various time during
the past eighteen years. The bill some
times passed one "liuu.tv and rfometimes
passed the other, but never succeeded in
lasting !oth houses at the ume ei?iou.
The matter vms almost forgotten even
by those iaot interested.
And now comes orders to L". S. District
Attorney Wattna to commence nnd press
a suit against Mr. Adainsibr the recovery
of the sum Jrt, which is aboat $12,fJ.
Under these instructions Mr. Watson will
begin snit in the Cnited States circuit
court against Mr. Adams and his bonds
men to recover the money. The bonds
men are P. W. Gillette of Portland, C. U
Parker, George Summers -and Cyras 01
ney of this city. The latter two are dead.
The mzt is brought to make a final dis
position of the mutter, but there is verv
slight chance of the government receiv
ing any benefit by it, as even if the par
ties were able to pay, it h doubtful if any
jury in the land would bring in a verdict
for the government.
The ex-collector is the father -of Judge
W. H. Adams of Portland, and Mrs. W. j
W. Parker and Bliss Amy Adam of lids !
city.
COBKM.-r.
There irtjiua to be u disposition on the
part of too many newspapers to build
themselves up by tearing down their
neighbors. Not content with represent
ing their own business in such manner as
they choose, they put in a good deal of
time in misrepresenting the business of
their contemporaries. This is sometimes
done openly in tho editorial columns,
but more frequently secretly through
canvassers and agents. A wide-awake
business man, whose patronage is solicit
ed by first decrying the circulation and
business of a supposed competitor of the
solicitor, is never at a loss to understand
that a man who will misrepresent the
business of hia neighbor can never be re
lied on to correctly state his own. Con
sequently there is not as much made by
these adopting this reprehensible policy
as they imagine: They may oxalt their
own business lo the extent of their
ability and the loftiest flights of imagina
tion. But when they turn to run down
the business of a competitor about which,
in the very nature of the case, they can
know but little, to use an exptessive
phrase, -thay give themselves dead
awav." and lose the rftsraet of .thn mer

SMITH V. TUKK.
Counsellor Campbell it having a great
time with his case against Jim Turk for
over $,000, said to be due lm client
Smith for wagc-s a.s cook. During tho
week a supposed detective in the employ
of Turk called upon Campbell who wan
busily engaged signing checks or writing
an imaginary brief, and inquired the
whereabouts of Smith. Seeing "by Jhe
cut of the fellow'a jib" ho was an" ex-salt
in the employ of Turk, the wilj barri-ter
looked up from bisdi-ka moment and
ou where he s ou'll iicer tell a soulr"

for $ ',000! No.wr, aud emissary No. 2 was
so mtornied. lho next actor upon tho
ticene was Turk's lawyer. Who reported to
tactica something similar to his predeces
sor, but prefaced his oaer of 200 for a
cessation of hostilities with the state
ment that Turk is insolvent aud that
everything in the shape of attachable
property 'u out of his hands, and that
even .uould Smith get a judgment he
would be beaten on the execution.

that some new job is being brewed for
