which took effect last Wednesday, no
clerk can receive an order for school
money until his bond is properly
made out, accepted and filed in the
office of the county superintendent.
Of the 1,720 boats on tho lower Co
lumbia good authority is of the opin
ion that 1,300 are out this week. The
run, which picked up a little in the
early part of the week, has fallen off
again, bo far indications point to a
light catch.
The Deep Sea fishing schooner
Venture is at Parker's wharf. So
far the enterprise has not proved a
financial success, though, it is be
lieved.that once a market is estab
lished in Portland and farther east,
the scheme would be a paying one.
On the Oregon yesterday went some
jagged lumps of cargo, comprising
38,087 pounds scrap tin, consigned to
Sootchler & Gibbs of San "Francisco.
By them it will be sent to Amidon k
Co., Baltimore, Md., that firm work
ing it up into a variety of shapes.
The Fleetwood and Emma Hay
ward are running daily races between
Olympia and Seattle. Steamboat
racing is bad all round; it uses the
boats up, creates no end of ill will,
and subjeots passengers and all hands
to possible peril of a dreadful acci
dent at any moment
School in district No. One closes
to-day. Prof. Johnson and his corps
of assistants have labored faithfully
for the best interests of those com
mitted to their charge and deserve
commendation for their efforts. The
marked improvement in the pupils is
good evidence of faithful work on tho
part of the teachers during the term.
Brig.-Gen. Siglin will shortly issue
an order for the first meeting of the
new military board, at the capital.
on June 24. No orders will emanate
from headquarters concerning pa
rades on May 30, but each company
may act as it pleases. General or
ders for reorganization of tho militia
into the National guard, on Juno 1
will be issued in a few days.
At a recent masquerade in Port
land, a number of the maskers, who
had attracted attention from their
dress and antics, which were those of
the salvation army, formed a circle in
the middle of the floor, and then a
tall, athletic young man, who per
sonated Satan, burst into the ring
and tried to break it up. The army
rose as a man, throttled Satan, threw
him down and wiped the floor with
him.
. The Portland school directors will
have a good time of it for the next
two or three months. They have
elected the teaohers some seventy
in number for the next school year
and refuse to let the newspaper re
porters, or the teachers themselves,
or any one else, know who has been
elected.. It's dollars to dimes thati
the teachers will find some way of
finding out before the 1st of next
month.
It has been discovered that ihe
new militia bill, which goes into
effect to-day, does not make any pro-J
vision for immediate payment of
funds to the national guard, under
the new law. The law provides that
a special fund shall be created for
the sustenance of the guard, and that
the source of revenue shall be from a
special tax of one-fifth of a mill levied
for that purpose. The tax will be
levied upon the taxes of 18S7, and
thesis taxes will not be collectible un
til the courts have passed upon the
assessment rolb and approved them.
Meanwhile, the national guard will
have tomn on credit, probably until
fall

Nkw Youk, May 19. Tho Commer
cial Advert tscr publishes the follow fellow follew
ing: It is already stated on very
good authority that Henry George,
of the labor party, has already begun
to prepare for tho fall campaign.
District leaders with their assistants
are making house to hou30 canvass
in tho tenement distrusts, and are
said to bo largely recruiting their
ranks from lukewarm Democrats. It
is estimated that the object of the
whole affair is to swell tho labor vote
in the approaching election to puch
an extent that George could then be
in a position to make a profitable
deal with Blaine in the presidential
election of 1888.
Henry George this morning said:
"You can authoritatively deny that
there is any deal or agreement either
past, pending or to be made in the
future between Blaine and myself.
I am opposed to Blaine; he represents
all I have been fighting against for
years in monopoly and the worst
form of capitalistic power." He was
asked: "Will there be a labor presi
dential candidate in 1888?" "It ia
strongly probable there will," an
swered George.

A OAIiIi FOR FREE SPEECH.
Toronto, May 19, The Globe, re
fering to yesterday's disturbance
says: "The ruffians of yesterday
doubtless expected to overawe the
eloquence and courage of O'Brien,
and this they vainly attempted.
They have thrown over to him a vol
ume of public sympathy' which he
could not have otherwise obtained.
He stands now identified with the
cause of free speech in Canada: free
dom to walk the streets and freedom
to express his opinion, and these
common rights must be vindicated
at auy necessary trouble andcost."

Some of the members of Co. "H.,"
O. S. M., think it would be a good
scheme for the county, which has to
pay S50 a month for thefr support, to
build them an armory on the county
property, and charge them a good
rent for it, till it was paid for in that
way. They figure that a suitable
building GOxlOft feet, could be built
for about $1,400, and that after it was
paid for on the installment plan, as it
were, by the county deducting so
much from their fifty dollar monthly
warrant, they would have permanent
headquarters and would be benefitted
thereby. The .present spirit of the
company is reported excellent and
the organization in an efficient state.
