C2.J k giutg gstorfim. ASTORIA. OREGON: FRIDAY. JANUARY 25. 1S8J. The secretary 'of tho interiorhas given the O. K. & N. Co. permission to cross tho Coenr d'Alene reservation, and one thousand men Trill bo at work next week. Tee now tariffbill which passed tho sonato by tho close vote of 32 to 30, last Tuesday, puts tho tariff on tin plato 70 per cent It is and has been 3a Whew! ! TnE members of the legislature of Minnesota have unanimously voted to return the passes sent them by the various railroad companies. There are other legislatures in session the members of which ought to follow their example. A new British Columbia road is the Vancouver fc Fraser Valley. It is projected to run from Nooksaek, W. T., northwest into British Colum bia, passing through Langburg, Sur rey, the Delta and Richmond, and crossing tho Frazer river a short dis tance below Ladnor's landing. The Seattle, Lake Sbore and East ern road is now built sixty miles east from Seattle and forty miles west from Spokane Falls. A stop ha3 been made for more funds. It is oxpected that with tho backing of tho O. B. &N. Co., the Seattle road will bo enabled to go ahead and complete a transconti nental line through some pass of the Cascade mountains. The Edmunds resolution differs from tho Monroe declaration of 1823 to tho extent of being more positive and aggressive. In the former in stance there was merely a sort of gen eral protest against possible Euro pean interference with any American nationality, whereas in the present case a certain contemplated proceed ing is objected to in a form which implies a purpose of direct resistanoe, if such a stop shall become necessary, to prevent tho consummation of the scheme.
