The civil war epoch, which brought
forward a more brilliant galaxy of
soldiers and statesman than the
world had ever known, is fast draw
ing to a close, and General Butler
was not one of tho least conspicuous
figures of an era that niado men
famous, fie was a gallant soldier,
a successful lawyer, and a poor pol
lution, lie acquired eminence as a
lawyer, bocause he was a master of
laws; his' quick precept ions and
force of conviction won him honors
as a soldier, but his eccentricities
and sympathies many - times kept
him out of office. The life of Gen
eral Butler will fill an important
page in the nation's history.
Rev. Dr. Thomas, of Chicage, in
his argument on Sunday-closing of
the World's Fair, puts tho whole
situation in a nut shell, and leaves
little ground for refutation by mem
bers of his own profession who are
opposed to the . fair being open on
Sunday. lie says the . matter of
going to the world's fair on Sunday
should be left to each person's con
science. Sunday opening wa3 not
a desecration of the Sabbath, as as
sumed by the other side. Business
and pleasure were inseparable from
any great movement or enterprise,
but the fair was not a business
project or a vast show; the fair was
a school and church for the exhi
bition of the nature of man's prog
ress, and appealed to the intellectu
al and moral life of the nation.
The last spike of the Great
Northern's Transcontinental rail
way was driven last Saturday week
at the summit of the Cascade
mountains. Jim Hill, one of the
greatest of railroad magnets of tho
day, has thus gained the principal
of his many aims in railroad ad
vancement, and has ridden his
hobby over the two great mountain
ranges. It is in the line of the
near possibilities that Mr. Hill will
extend his system south along the
coast to San Francisco.
The Mail has undertaken that
which even in biblical days was
considered an impossibility. We

If we fail it will be nothing more
than the "same thing over again

chanced bands it does not necessari-
ly-follow ; that its former patrons
should be in any way- backward

Crater Lake in Midwinter.
Geo. J. Farnsworth arrived at Klam

on snow-shoes over the Cascades. He
is one of the few men who has seen
Crater lake in midwinter. The snow
is 20 feet deep in that region. The
lake Is frozen except an area of half a
mile in the center. He says the ultra
marine of the water contrasting with
the whiteness of the snow produces a
dazzling and weird effect. Farnsworth
and his companions had a thrilling ex

LEGISLATIVE
NEWS
M. A. Miller's school-book bill
provides for compilation of a series
of school books consisting of three
readers, one speller, one arithmetic,
one grammar, one history of the
United States and one geography.
The books are to be published by
the state, and the state, county and
school district authorities are re
quired by this law to enforce the
use of them. They are to be dis
tributed from the office of iho 6tate
treasurer to all dealers at cost and
shall be sold at retail at not more
than 10 per cent profit. $20,000 is
appropriated to cover expenses of
compiling and editing books, or so
much therefor as may be needed;
also $50,000, or as much as needed.
for printing and . distribution of
books. The expense of publica
tion will become a fund that will go
right back into the state treasury.
The contract for publishing the
books is to be let to the lowest res
ponsible bidder, and prices fixed
when the bill is accepted. This
shall be in effect for four years, and
at the end of four years to bo sub
mitted to a vote of the people wheth
er to be continued or not. The bill
is modelled after the Minnesota law.
Representative Miller has intro
duced a bill for a fishway at Oregon
City and wants the Legislature to
appropriate $6000 for the construc
tion of same. The fishway to be
constructed in the bed ot the river
on the west side of the main fall,
by making excavations in the solid
rock when the water is low, so that
the slope will be more gradual, and
when the water is higher the exca
vations will form a series of pools
connecting with each other, all con
structed and arranged in such a
manner that salmon can freely as
cend from below to above the falls
by passing from pool to pool.
Governor Pennoyer is opposed to
the continuation of the railroad
commissioner, on the ground that
they have not accomplished what
the people expected of them and
probably never will.
Senator Dodson wants the state
to remit $14,100 which Baker coun
ty owes the state for delinquent tax
es since 1S79. Part of the amount
is uncollected from having been lev
ied on stock which perished from
inclement weather.
A measure much desired by mi
ners is Dodson's bill providing for
liens of miners on the properties
they work upon. It is ironclad and
ought, if passed, to do away with
the frequent corupUinU of miners
being unable to collect wages due
them.
Senate bill No.. 63 is probably
the britfett introduced. It is IX-n-ney's,
an 1 provides: That hereaf

her real estate in like manner as she
might do by her separate deed if
she were unmarried.
Senator Looney's food bill stipu

Extensive Reserve of Public Domain
The president last Saturday is
sued a proclamation under act of
March 3, 1891, as to timber reserves,
upon the recommendation of one of
the special agents of the interior
department in Oregon, creating a
great reservation ol the public lands
in the state of Oregon, commencing
at the Columbia river on the north
and running nearly through the en
tire length of the state Behind
this is a petition from various per
sons, and also from the state offi
cials, who represent that tnis reser
vation should be made because of
the valuable timber within it, and
of its being the watershed of the
rivers flowing through Western Or
egon to the sea. Representative
Hermann was invited by the sec
retary of tho interior to examine
the plats and proclamation which
are prepared. Observing the great
magnitude of the withdrawal, and
realizing its possible effect upon
the mining opportunities of por
tions of the regions reserved, unless
the proclamation could be modified
as occasion might require, he sug
gested that, except as to Mount.
Hood and Crater lake surround
ings, further action be suspended
until the Oregon legislature, now in
session, could be afforded an oppor
tunity of expressing its wishes, so
that the character of the proclama
tion might be inquired into. The
matter was submitted to the attorney-general,
and he decides that at
any time, upon satisfactory show
ing, the president can modify or
entirely revoke his proclamation
without legislative recourse.
EXTENT OF THE It E3 Eli YE.
The length of the reserve is 234
miles. The area is 7020 square
miles and there are 44.492.S00 acres
within the exterior boundaries. It
embraces the crest of the Cascade
range of mountains and includes
the east and west slopes. A peti
tion is on file from the Oregon Al
pine Club asking for this with
drawal, but. subsequently discover
ing its magnitude, and reflecting
upon its effects upon the mining in
dustry, a second petition was sub
mitted. confining the reserve to
Mount Hood and its curroundings.
and to the rugged mountains and
lakes adjacent to the Crater Lake
reservation, which President Cleve
iana wnnarew in iao. witn a
view of creating a nationl park. It
is found that in this proposed with
drawal there are 123,000 acres of
school lands, which, being unsur-
veyed, can be withdrawn and the
state thus become entitled to in
demnity. The rule of the depart
ment recognizes this right ofindem
nity where the exterior boundaries
of a reserve arc sufficiently identified
to inclose the reserve. And legal
entries, filings, locations and claims
of bona fide settlers, are expressly
excepted from reservation by the
terms of the proclamation.

When the town of Grant's Pass was

a 100-foot strip all around it as a sort of
wall which prevented the laying out of
additions. This has remained private
property to this time, except where it
has been pierced by streets here and
there, and it has now of course, became
valuable, but the city must have outlets
across it as extensions of certain streets.
Ho to get it without paying the own
