The mist was heavy ou the river
yesterday, continuing throughout the
day and making navigation a matter
of slow progress.
The seasons of target practice for
the posts in this department have
been announced, the earliest to com
mence in April.
The auction sale at the Crystal
Palace goes on at two and seven
o'clock every afternoon and evening;
B. S. Worsley is doing the auction
ing. The Oregon came in at 1:30 yester
day afternoon with a very large
freight and passenger list: the Co

laud last Wednesday, in the cases of

vs. E. A. Noyes and Shively vs. Par
ker & Bowlby, judgments of non-suit
were entered.
A merry assemblage gathered at
the M. E. church last evening, the oc
casion being a donation party ten
dered Rev. Mr. Joslyn, the worthy
pastor. Charades, recitations, vocal
and instrumental music were among
the features of the evening. Not the
least on the programme was a wagon
load of groceries tendered as a gift to
the parsonage.
The captain of the Jennie Wand

Capt. Scott of the Telephone says
he has no mail contract between here
and Portland. It would have been a
surprise to all if he had at such rid
iculously low figures as those cur
rently reported a few days ago. This
mail contract business is being run
in the ground iu this section; it
would seem as though most of the
contracts are taken by men who are
living here for their health and want
to work for Uncle Sam for nothing
and board themselves.
Yesterday furnished a good illus
tration of the efficiency of ocean and
river service in this locality, a ser

steam craft coming and going "on
time."
Arrival of the "Entitle ton.
The British bark Embleton, Payn
ton master, 1,196, arrived in yesterday
from Panama. The Embleton was
hero last in Jauuary '85, under very
distressing circumstances. She had
discharged a cargo of coal from Pen
arth at Acapulco and sailed thence
for tho Columbia river. When but a
few days out a terrible fever broke
among the crew, who one by one died
in dreadful delirium till Capt Payn
ton was left with but two men and
two boys to work a vessel that full
handed required twenty-two men.
Though weak from long -continued
illness Capt Paynton with commend
able heroism kept up and to his un
daunted energy and perseverance
der difficulties that would have
Ulrwhelmed many a good man he
brought his vessel safe to this port.

CAPITAL VERSUS IiABOR.
St. Louis, Mar. 1L A. T. Hoxie,
president of the Missouri Pacific rail
road, has been in constant communi
cation with Jay Gould who is now in
Cuba. It is known now that Gould's
hand has been directing the fight
against the Kuights of Labor. No
freight cars are moving here, yet new
men are being hired as fast as possi
ble There will soon be enough se
cured and an effort will be made to
move the freight, when the Knights
of Labor will doubtless resist. The
company say they will ask municipal
aid and stale arms if necessary.
The following statement of de
mand is made by the Knights of La La
eor: First, SL50 per day for un
skilled labor, including section men,
trucking, etc. Second, the abolish
ment of convict labor. Third, all
bridgemen to get $2 to 82.75 per day.
No Knight of Labor to be discharged
unless it be proven that he is guilty
of some specific charge of miscon
duct. All men unjustly discharged
to be reinstated fit the conclusion of
the strike.

AX EXISTING EVIL.
Kxappa, Or., Mar. 11, '80.
Editor Asteriax:
Thore is a wrong staring us in the
face one that has been long notice
able, but never so keenly felt as now
when the fisherman, after a poor sea
son last year and a winter of hardship
and toil, some preparation for the
summars work of fishing, is met at
short distances by a floating grog
gery reaching out its deadly arm3 for
the price of every salmon be entraps.
If a man comes on land and sells liq
uor, there is a law to meet it; but
they can come right to the fisherman's
home as it is ona third of the year
upon the water and taking advan
tage of his exposed, tiresome, sleep
less mode of life, hold the tempting
enp to his lips, thus robbing his fam
ily of the necessities of life, causing
the cry of ''hard times" and the in
clination to wreak vengeance where
it does not belong. It would seem
that there should be legislation upon
this matter to put a stop to their
coming right to your door on the wa
ter, to deal out the vile stuff. If not,
let torpedoes and dynamite be legal
ized, which will make it an unpopular
as well as a dangerous business, and
force rumsellers to the conclusion
that
"God is on the watera
Jnst the same as on the land."

Kegarding the railroad war, C. P.
Huntington says that there are no

A circular has been issued by sup

of the Canadian Grand Trunk rail
way, ordering that hereafter nil Chi

Congressmann Hermann has se
cured a favorable report from the
committee on commerce to his bill
granting to this county, the right to
construct a public bridgd across
Young's bay from Smith's point. The
war department approves the bill,
after recommending an amendment
requiring the county to submit a
map of Young's bay with its snr
rouudings. A special from Fort Worth; Tex.,
to the Post-Dispatch states that the
first trouble there between Knights
and non-Knights occurred Wednes
day morning, when new men em
ployed by the railroad to run its en
gines wore attacked, while performing
their duty, and forced to vacate their
cabs. The strikers then "killed" the
engines. Quiet now prevails but it
is thought that this is the beginning
of serious trouble. '
Great distress is reported among
the people inhabiting the Arran isles,
off Galway, on the western Irish
coast, who, besides having hardly
anything to eat but mo3s and sea
grass, are without fire and often with
out clothing and shelter. It is not
rare to find girls of 17 and 18 years of
age, kept in enforced hiding during
the day time, because they are bereft
of every thread of clothing long ago
bartered away for seed potatoes or
roots to feed the smaller children.

Senator Mitchell has introduced a '
resolution directing the secretary of
the interior to withdraw for the pres

any of the land laws of the United
States all lands of the United Stat.s
lying on and along the Columbia
river adjacent to obstructions to nav
igation in the Columbia river at the
Cascades, and also at The Dalles, for
a distance of 500 feet from low water
mark. The object of the resolution
is to prevent speculators getting pos
session of strips of lands adjacent to
tue two designated places, witn a
view to holding them for a high price
when the right of way for a ship ca
nal or ship railway is wanted.
The New York Tribune, of the
10th, says M. Jacquet, one ot the
commissioners appointed by the
French government to inspect the
Panama canal, said: ''There can be
no doubt that the canal will be fin
ished. So much money has already
been spent on it that it cannot be giv
en up now. It is surpising that
Americans should be opposed to it.
I find that Americans make a great
bugbear out of the Chagres river. I
have not yet made up my mind as to
which of the schemes proposed for
controlling tho Chagres is the better.
One contemplates building a great
dam at Gamboa, and the other pro
vides new courses or levees of the
upper and lower Chagres. I believe
both plans for controlling the river
are feasible, and the expense would
not be so great as represented. I am
not yet prepared to say when the
canal will be completed, or what the
total cost will be.

SOJIE LATE LEGAL DECISIONS.
Mabbied Woman's Note Evidence.
According to the decision of the Kentucky
Court of Appeals in the case of Casey et
al. vs. Harwood, the fact that a note
executed by a married woman recites that
it is for services rendered to her does not
estop her from showing that the services
were rendered to another.
Peddlers' Licenses xot Unconstitu
tional. The constitutionality of an or
dinance of the city of Dnbuquo, Iowa,
prohibiting peddling withoat n license,
was involved in the case of Wondover vs.
The City of Dubuque, decided bv Judge
Shiras, of tho United. States District
Court. The plaintiff, a citizen of New
York, was arrested on the chargo of ped
dling without a license, and sued the
city for damages. The judge dismissed
the suit, holding that the ordinance was
not in conflict with the Constitution of
the United States.
Liabilitx of Crrr Defective Beidge.
It i3 the duty of a city to keep a bridge
on one of its public streets in a reason
ably safe condition for travel thereon.
If it becomes out of repair and notice of
the fact is brought home to the city, or
the defect is shown to have existed a
sufficient length of time to have been
discovered by the use of ordinary care,
the city will be liable in an action for
damages for a loss of property occasioned
by the defective condition ot the bridge.
Jordan vs. City of Hannibal, decided by
the Supremo Court of Missouri.
Conveyance Considebation CaEDrr
obs A father conveyed to his son an in
terest in his property, the consideration
for the deed being that his son would
live with and aid him in his declining
years. The grantee having left his
father, the father required that he should
convey the property to another son upon
a like consideration. The Kentucky
Court of Appeals held (Perkins V3. Scott
et al.) that the latter deed was not fraud
ulent as to the creditors or the grantor,
he never having paid to his father any
consideration for the property, and hav
ing acted in good faith and in accord
ance with his contract made at the time
he accepted-the deed.
Cobporation Individual Liabiliti of
Assooiates. The case of Johnson et al.
vs. Corser et a!, decided recently by the
Supreme Court of Minnesota, was one in
which it appeared that certain persons
undertook to associate themselves to
gether as a corporation, but did not take
the proper steps to that end. They did,
however, make contracts as a corpora
tion, and the creditors sued them as in
dividuals and recovered judgments which
were sustained by the Supreme Court.
The court held that the attempt to in
corporate was ineffectual to limit the in
dividual liability of the associates, and
that upon any contract which they might
be found to have authorized to be made,
or which they might have ratified,
although iu terms the contract was made
as the contract of the association or as
sumed corporation, the members might
be nela to an individual liability.
AOENCX AUTHOBITT TO COLLECT. The
general manager of a lumber company,
having authority among other things to
! collect money on checks for the company,
presented to a oanK lor payment a cueck
for $300 drawn in favor of the company
and on the bank, and the officers through
mistake paid the managers $800 instead
of $300. The company afterwards re-
; fused to return to the bank the $500 paid
in excess over ma amount oi mo cnecu,
and the bank sued the company therefor.

, Paul proposed "to open and extend" a
i street, and its board of public works as-
ffflsed the damages, costs and expenses
thereof upon the propertv deemed bene
fited, including certain land owned by
one Valentine. The assessment was con-i
hrnted, and ufterwards judgment was
rendered against Valentine's land, which
was delinquent, for the amount assessed
thereon. Subsequently his land wc3 sold
upon the judgment for the amount of the
assessment and costs. A year thereafter
aleatine paid tho amount with which
his land was charged by the judgment
and sale to tho city treasurer, who gave
him a receipt therefor. No part of the
proposed street was opened and ths pro
ject of opsniug the street was abandoned
by the city. In an action bv Valentine
(Valentine vs. Tho City of St? Paul) the
Supremo Court of Minnesota held that
the plaintiff was entitled to recover the
amount paid by him in an action against
the city as upon a failure of tho consid

and further, that even if the abandon

THE LAST rRONUNCIAMENTO.
A committee of the local assembly

which shall be vested in an executive
board consisting of one member from
each local assembly of the- Knights
of Labor, which board shall appoint

in thirty days by the Chinese to com
mence shipment as requested by the
Knights of Labor, the executive
board of the bureau of industry shall
request all employers of Chinese or
prison labor to make arrangements
to discontinue Buch labor within the
next sixty days. If, after ninetj'
days, any person be found employ
ing, directly or indirectly, Chinese or
prison labor, the executive board
shall boycott them in a most ener
getic manner. If the deportation of
the Chinese has not commenced 120
day3 after the issuance of tho plan,
the exeontive board shall call on the
Knights of Labor in tho United
States, Canada and British Columbia,
and all labor organizations to assist
us in a most vigorous boycott of the
whole Chinese race living in America,
and ot all their employers. After this
period action shall be continued un
til the end is reached. Cal. Grocer

WHAT SENATOR VEST THISKS.
Washington, March 10. Hale and Mil
lard, designated by the house as special
committee to investigate and report the
facts concerning ownership of Pan-Electric
telephone stock by certain public
officers, took the deposition of Senator
Vest, at his residence this afternoon.
The senator stated that he first heard of
the Pan Electric telephone company
through a printed circular sent to him
through the mails, some time in April,
1831. The circular gave the names of
the officials of the company, and the pur
poses for which it wa3 organized. He
noticed that the namo of Senator Harris,
of Tennessee, was mentioned in tho cir
cular as connected with the enterprise.
He called on Senator Harris, and by him
was referred to Senator Garland, who
was represented as well acquainted with
the status of the company and its rela
tion to the Bell company. After obtain
ing Mr. Garland's opinion, the senator
said he conoluded to take, and did take,
100 shares of Pan Electric stock, for
which he gaTO bis check for $1000 on the
Metronolitan national bank of Washing
ton, which was paid on the following day,
and for which he received contracts
showing that he was entitled to 100
shares of stock which, owing to the in
complete organization of the company, it
was not at that time randy to issue.
'That Btook was issued to me," said
the senator, "about one year ago; that
is, ninety shares of it; ten shares were
retained by the company as an assess
ment to defray the expenses of expected
litigation with tho Bell company."
"After this matter got into the papers,"
continued Senator Vest, "Stilson Hutch
ins, of this city, offered to take my stock
off my bands, and pay me what it cost.
This offer I refused, as it might look like
a retreat under fire. I considered it mere
speculation, but was willing to take
chances. 1 have received a dividend of
$12 or 15 since I have owned the stock."
Continuing he said: "I have had no
conversation with Mr. Casey Young,
secretary of the Pan Eleotric company,
and I have never met and do not know
Mr. Rogers, who it appears was prom
inent in the organization of the compa
ny. Mr. Garland represented to me that
in his opinion the Bell patent was ille
gally obtained, and that Pan-Electric
stock might be worth somo money. At
that time Mr. Cleveland had not been
nominated for the presidency, and of
course Mr. Garland was unthought of in
connection with the attorney-general
ship.7
