In expectation of Inttremlng developments, but there were no Inul.b-ttls during the day that awakened more than passing Interest. The Indian appropriation bill waa considered up to 1 p. m.. when for four hours a general discussion on the San- gullly rase, and of the pardon occur red. Fry said at the outwit that the Sangutlly revolution should be retired. Morgan asked the adoption of another resolution, calling for Information as to th(j tmiHisonnwnt of George Wash ington Aguirre. He also reviewed the Sanguilly case, declarlntr that the action of the senate yesterday had warned Spain against collision wttn the United Stated, and had moved trie queen to the unuoual expedient of pardon by cable. The senator severely erltk-lsej the presldcmt and se-rtary of state for aJk-Kcd ina.tlon In this case. FLAX GROWING. The Question Is Agitating All Parts of the State of XTepon.

We are agents of Robert Stewart & Sons, Llsburn, Ireland, manufacturers of linen threads and linen goods, who employ 2,000 hands. Mr. F. J. Porter, head manager of this firm, while paying us an official visit last fall, remarked that he thought the Oregon climate very well adapted to the culture of flax. At this time wc 1ld not know, of any experiment having been made In Oregon before. We sug. gested to him to eend some seed and an extra, experiment would be made This Mr. Porter Is also In a line of sailing vessels, which ply Irregularly botwen Liverpool and Astoria, Oregon, and promised to send a supply of seed at the first opportunity, with Instruc tions, eac. We have received the In struction blanks, but a very limited number, and are looking toward the conning of the seed, which Is of neves, slty uncertain to arrive In time for sow. lng. Under any circumstances we shall be glad to furnish you with some, If you wish. Should you have some seed on hand for distribution, we shall be rery thank ful for some, as In all probability we can make a more thorough experiment In mr country.
