Prior to 1869, San Francisco was a port, -which the conservative "blub-bar-hunter" avoided with the mo3t sedulous care and steered for tho Sandwich islands for his period of reposo during the long winter months which menace the sojourner in the Atlantic waters, The completion of the Central Pacific railroad, however, revolutionized the oil traffic Whale men found that, owing to the reduc tion of freights by way of Panama, growing outjjof the rivalry engen dered by tho completion of the over land road, they could ship their oil east by steamer cr rail and get their money back for it before returning to the Arctic cruising grounds. Prior to this period, two great ob stacles had stood in the whaleman's way. First wa3 the liability of their sailors to desert at San Francisco, in the hope of making suddenly a for tune in the mines; and second was the high rate of pilotage in that port. The latter evil was abated in 1865 by an enactment of the legislative assem bly, reducing pilotage to one dollar per foot draft; but still the old craft of Nantucket and New Bedford steered clear of the harbor whose outposts bore the name of "Golden Gate." And it was not till the com pletion of the Central Pacific road that they began to seek San Fran cisco as a place of outfitting. By that time placer mining had retro graded to a fourth-rate industry of the state, and there was but little fear of desertion. From that time to the present date San Francisco has steadily advanced as a whaling port, and some of her speculative citizens 'who ventured their capital in that branch of com merce have reaped large interest on their capital. In 1867 there were but three whalers two barks and one brig owned in San Francisco. Now there aro twenty-one, of which seven are propelled by auxiliary steam. Tho latter are bark rigged, about 450 tons burthen, and carry a small ver tical engine for driving the screw, which is only used in head winds or extricating tho vessel from dangerous fields of floating ice. These steam vessels are all owned by one com pany, of which ex Gov. Perkins is the moving spirit. They bear the names of different species of the celacea, such as liata'na, Orca. Narwhal, and Sowhead, and were all built in San Francisco of fir timber shipped from Puget sound. All the sailing vessels engaged in the North Pacific whaling traffic now make San Fran cisco their winter quarters, though many of them aro still owned in east ern ports. And yet wo see no good reason why some of the capital of Oregon should not be employed in this indus try. The board of pilot commission ers for the Columbia river could re duce the rates of pilotage on whalers to one dollar per foot, without any action on the part of the legislature: and that would be one serious obsta cle removed, to begin with. The ships would be 600 miles nearer the whaling grounds than at San Francis co, thus saving a total mileage of 1. 200 miles in each year. They c ould buy all their stores and supplies for the next season's voyage as cheaply in Astoria or Portland as in San Fran cisco; and they could certainly ship their oil eastward from this place at as low rates as by either the Central or southern railroads. All other thiugs being equal, the Columbia river wonld be preferable to San Francisco as a whaling rendezvous. Of course we could not expect vessels owned and controlled in San Fran cisco to winter in Oregon waters, but we could invite those ovrued in At lantic ports, and give them solid in ducements for coming hither. In this connection, we believe the government should extend its strong arm to aid this branch of commerce by establishing a relief station at Point Barrow or Wainright Inlet, iu Alaska, for the succor of the crews of wrecked or disabled whaling ship3 in that region. It may be possible that in future years Oregon capital may be embarked in whaling ventures and our merchants will be as much inter ested in the matter as those or our sister state. Certainly we can bnild sailing vessels for that traffic much cheaper than they can be built m Saa Francisco; and steamers can be built here at so little increase of cost that the difference is hardly worthy of con sideration. There is money enough in Astoria to equip one such vessel at once, or at least in time for the next whaling season; and if Portland were to invest a hundred thousand dollars or so in enterprises of this sort it would add materially to the srowth and prosperity of our city in years to come.

Jeffreys-Lewis' performance ot "Stephanie" in ''Forget-Me-Not" will be an emotional representation long to bo remembered. Of her perform ance of this characterat the Baldwin theater last week the San Francisco Post says: "Miss" Jeffreys Lewis is undoubted ly the greatest actress in her line in America to-day perhaps in the world. Her art is an inspiration it was born iu her, is part ot her being, and she herself must often be uncon scious of the spirit which animates her work. Many actors and actresses of the present day who have achieved considerable fame are mere machines. Place Miss Jeffreys Lewis beside them and it woul t. have about the same effect as putting a diamond of purest water among a lot of paste im itations. Now Miss Lewis does everything out of the amplitude of her own varied inspirations. We watched her as BTortense last week, and this week as Stephanie, and- ob served that her movements are rarely alike on successive evenings. She realizes the part she is playing, and for the time being is not Jeffrevs ! Lewis playing a part, but the author's character endowed with life. How j she does hold the senses enchained in the role of the adventuress Ste phanie? One's nerves are at full tension from her first entrance to her last exit. - She's the ploy itself. Nothing in woman kind could be more bewitching than the pretty,, pouting archness with which slie' bends her shapely head. Her won-' derfnl delicacy of sarcasm, fine as the point of a cambric needle, as the slash of a Malay creese, ins itself. She uses the we: woman with unequalled skill. What a wealth of art sho has at her com mand to lure a victim to her net. With a look, a smile, a touch almost, she seems to possess the power to en chain the senses of a man of more than ordinary brain, and bring him captive to her feet. What strikes the close observer most is the rare mobil ity ot her features. She has Aimce's power of suggestion, with Adelaide Nielson's sweet womanlv softness and Bistori's grand dramatic force. She delights in surprises, copies no model, studies no methods but is art itself.'' At Boss' opera house to-morrow night. IVy? JHiul That Now? ''Astoria is a great place for fish'- -Salem Statcsmun.
