It was no doubti that factory that turned out some hundred duplicates of a cer tificate which a Chinaman formerly employed at the Occident hotel, In this city, took with him to China. Before Mr. Lotan discharged the Danube's last consignment of Mongolians, he did not forget tha advice given to a min ister about to leave for Europe, which was "Above all, do not be over zeal ous." Now Mr. Lotan, like a truly conscientious officer, has not been over zealous. He simply permitted some thing over three-fifths of the 604 mer chants (?) to land, and left the remain der to appeal from his decision. It is singular where all these merchants come from, and If Mr. Lo tan's deci sions are to be depended upon, there must be a score or more of Celestials Interested in every Chinese store in Oregon's metropolis. The admonition, "Be not over zealous" might be profitable, if heeded, to Portland's col lector. He might, for Instance, be less diligent In establishing the genuine ness of the certificates and admit those who are really not en- - titled to land, leaving the others, pos sessed of Just claims, to present their cases to a higher tribunal. The cus toms authorities In Portland might possible "be approached" by friends of the Chinese, but of course those of ficers would scornfully repel any at- ' tempt at bribery. We observe that In New York, where thousands of Immi grants arrive weekly, the officials de cide quickly on the merit of each Im migrant. When a vessel is placed In quarantine, her documents are exam ined at once, In order that there may be no further delay when the quaran tine has expired. But good and Build reasons doubtless prevent Collector Lo tan and his deputies from displaying llko diligence In the discharge of their duties. When will Portland learn wisdom? Her merchant's and manufacturers find now that the sweeping reduction In freight rates made by the Clreat North ern Imperils her jobbing trade and locnl Industries. The eastern rates to Spo kane are lower than those from port land to that city. It follows that Port Ind will be forced to seek for trade within narrower limits. The California drummer Is almost at her gates and the Spokane traders will soon Invade her territory. Long ago Portland should have prepared for this warfare by pro moting the development of Oregon In many ways. The construction of a railroad to Astoria by way of the Ne halcm valley should have been one of the first things that Portland undertook lo hold her grip on the commerce of Oregon and Washington. For the Next Thirty Days, To meet imperative demands, I will offer at such low prices on install ments, with 'easy payment?, that ALONG TUB WHARVES. Tha Bteamer Surprise, Captain Bell, sailed yesterday morning with supplies for Alaska canneries. The Haytian Republic, which was 11 beled at Seattle on account of alleged complicity In smuggling transactions, is on the way to this port, having been released on 130,000 bonds. The eteamer Potter struck a sunken log on the way down the river yester day morning. No damage was done, but a number of the passengers were alarmed. In the year of 1SC2 the tonnage of vessels of the United States sold to foreigners was 117,750. In the year tf:6: the amount of tonnage so sold was 222,199; In 1864 it was 300,863; In 1865 it had fallen to 133,832 tons. In 1867 the amount sold was 9,088 tons. The amount sold then Increased slowly each year after that until 1874, when it reached 77,064 tons. The old type of vessels has been pretty well cleared away, and it is not probable that for eigners will buy American built ves sels again, until our shlp-buljders nrj prepared to furnish ships of the new kind now- demanded by the fierce com petition In the carrying trade. The tug companies asked the govern ment $7000 for towing the Spanish car avels from New York around to Chi cago. The Philadelphia Ledger makes the pointed assertion that It was money In Columbus' pocket that there were no tug companies here when ha struck this land of the free. FUNERALS.' E. W.

II . a line looking nnd nnnarentlv healthy man. was observed to stagger while walking on Fifth Avenue this afternoon, and after taking one or two un certain steps fell to the sidewalk; When picked up ho was dead. A physician ex utuinud tho hody.and pronounced AearfdtseaM the cause of death. A peculiarly sad feature of the case is that Mr. II was on his way to Maine, to settle in the home of his ho v hood. lie had passed the previous ten years in the western mining country, and had amassed a fortune. If YOU have any of tho symptom., kiven in the following testimonials you should lose no time in seeking relief. From John L. Eoberts, Slatington, Pa,: "I have suliered with valnitaiion, irregular pulse, fainting and mothering spells, pain in thoulden, tide, and am for over forty yeart. For twelve years have been treated without avail by prominent physicians in my neigh borhood and ia New York. Growing con stantly worse, smothering spells followed one another, so my me was oitcn in Ganger ana I needed constant care. As my son had been cured by Dr. MUei New Heart Cure, he sent mo three bottles. The first dose gave me ititant relief. Before using the lost bottle I was completely cured. Although seventy- five years old I feel twenty years younger. I claim my cure to be almost a miracle." Here is a letter from Mrs. John Kolges, f Cleveland, O.: "I had been troubled with my heart and stomach for years, but for six teen months had been confined to my bed. I had four of the best doctors in the city, but none of them could benefittheweakncssof my heart. I also had dropsy and rheumatism. I never took medicine that relieved me at once as Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure does. I am much stronger. My appetite is splendid. I gain strength, with every dose. I have gained more in six weeks from your treat ment than in sixteen months from all the doctors." ' . "Dr. MUei New Cure for the Heart is sold on a positive guarantee by all druggists.
