JJyars, of Portland, Is doing all in his Kwer to satisfy the demand for the sur vey of public lands. JIo says the whole of the appropriation off 20, 000 by congress will bo speedily ex pended for this purpura In various portions of Oregon. IIo has al ready lot a contract for the survey of 'one township on the Calupoola river near lirownsvlllo, In Linn county, and n part of 11 vo other townships on tho North riantlaiu along the Oregon l'aclflo railroad, Tho matter of surveying the public lands has not received due atten tion from tho government. Lauds not being surveyed has kept many acres from being Improved thai otherwise would now bo In cultiva tion. Clatsop, Tillamook, and Co lumbia counties have suffered heav ily from lack of attention in tide mutter from tho general govern ment. Twenty thousand dollars Is a very small sum to be appropri ated for tills great work, which will not only benefit thu counties where the work Is done, but the whole state. There are a lurgo number of DOttlcra now located on uiiHurveyed lands and improving thein without any awturanco but they will he cut up by section lines so that they may Joho much of their improvements. Thu men occupying these lands are au iudustrlous class uud aro endeav oring to muko a home, and It Is the duty of the government to have these- lands surveyed and protect the holders from any possibility of loss. liOAItD OK COMMKItCK. Tho state board of commerce was in sosulon again last evening when numeruui resolutions weru adopted touching on many Important questions. The board favored tho pussngo of laws tending toward reclaiming tho arid lands In eastern Oregon. They fa vored tho repeal of thu mortgage tux law and recommend that tho legal rato of lutrtBt bo llxcd at six per cent. They also urge tho limited Into Improvement ofthoupperWIIIumetto river nnd tho completion of thu lock nt tho Cascades of tho Columbia. Tito World's fair was tho iiiuln qura tlou before thu board. A bill was drafted which will bu submitted to tho legislature for Km action. Thu bill provides for five oonunMonorw who shall glvu boutln.Ui tho sum of $20,000 for the faithful performance of their duty, Tho board also rec ommends the appropriation of K0,- wu ami a imii-imu lax ror thu years 1KD1 and 1802, of ail taxable propel to bu devoted exuluslvely to tho Or egon exhibit of thu fair, uud that no money overnud above thu appropil- titloti bo exjHinded, Thu meeting ndJournedHtllp.ni. having com pleted their work. (Jood I'ricf for Farm Product WLeat Firm with an Upward Ten dency. Tho Salem market for farm pro ducts Is now fairly good and a ready sale can bo found for most anything grown on the farm. Wheat, th main staple of the Oregon farmer, is now C2J cents a bushel net to farmers, with an upward tendency. San Francisco merchants have come Into tho valley to buy wheat and arc bidding a little higher than the Ore gon wheat dealers. This will prob ably raise tho price of wheat a few cents on the bnshcl. Tho valley has a large amount of wheat on hand yet. Flour is selling at the mills in this city at $4 per barrel, this being twenty cents lower than It was sold for a week ago. The price of flour Is not liable to change much from four dollars u barrel. Oats are plentiful, but bring a good price, in fact tho Indications aro the price will fall. They aro now sell ing for ilfty cents per bushel. Some predict that oats can bo bought next iprlng for forty cents. Hay Is sell ing nt $15 to f 18 a ton with plenty to supply tho demand. Looso hay brings about f15 while bailed sells a few dollars higher. The hay that sells at these flguies Is good timothy. The price of both hay and oats In the spring will depend very much on tho winter. It tho mild weather continues the price will be lower slnco It Is governed largely by the local demand, and there seems to be an abundance of both in the valley. Potatoes are selling at sixty cents with n steady market well supplied. Tho (Hitato crop was largo last year, and tho quality of the potatoes seems to bo excellent. Apples are not seventy-flve cents a bushel to tho farmer. The best of tho crop Is already in the market. Hut few first class lots aro now brought in. Eggs are again bringing thirty cents a dozen and for the past few days have been scarce. Good butter Is hard to get at 35 cents. Tho lo cal supply is not strong enough to meciiueiicmanii. uniiiornin utmer Is being handled by a number of the merchants. Vegetables are nearly out of the market. Those that are brought In bring prices according to quality. WwklyDo.vk. Itev. T. K. Itoyai, A. M., of Dayton has the following to soy in the Pacific Christian Ad vocate, in rogard to the location of tho Willamette university: "Portlaad has wisely decided to let tho Willamette university rest. This is gratifying to those whose money, toil, sacrifice and patronage have built and sustained that insti tution. We hope it will never be disturbed again, except to enlarge its grounds in its present vicinity. It has made a record of its own. It has a grand history, nn eminently desirable location, and an enviable reputation. It is surrounded by its friends, who are there because it is there. Its curriculum promises n broad scholarship, and Its faculty is composed of teachers of rare ability, ripe experienco and great popularity, Hence It has enjoyed a liberal pat ronage, with a flatteridg promise of continued increase. The future of tho Willamette university is assured. Since ft Is left permanently located at Salem, Its friends will now rally around it with new Inspiration and devotion. Their wealth will be bestowed upon it as never before with the hope of maintaining it still as an institution of tho highest grade." JURY LIST.

A man has been going around from house to house In this city selling u kind of capsule, which ho claims, wns Invented by Edison, uud is man ufactured by Durant, a wealthy manufacturer or New York. He claims that three of these cupsulcv put Into a quart Rochester lamp will generate a gas which Is converted Into light and a quart of oil will lust for u year. Ho tells them at the rato of $2.00 u dozen Ho says It requires two nights for tho capsules to become thoroughly saturated so as to give tho desired results. This swindler was in North Salem recently. Ho met with good success whllo in Salem, as n number of persons uio reported to have Invested in tho Edison "world onllghtener." Thoso who were so grossly swindled now favor tho pun or tho governor's moougo where he udvooates tho injustice of appropria ting tho people's money without gtvlng them vuluo received. The other towns in thu valley would do well to watch fur him and give him a wide berth. Mi Hon, J. J. Daly, Grand M. W. of Uio A. O. V. W is In tho city to day.

The steamer Oceanic which arrived from I CTnm Txtv n.l "!...l n ..1 n tlila I A-LVlMiL .jLifL 4iuu lunnuttuia ..IIO afternoon brings the news that the British steamer Nammoa was ot tacked by pirates December 8. The daring of the pirates can be easily conceived when it is known that they made the attack only about -13 miles from Hong Kong. The ves sel had aboard 245 Chinese in tran sit, and only five or six Europeans when met by 85 pirates, who asked fo be taken aboard as passengers at 1:15 p. m. While the officers were at lunch the pirates divided into four bauds and attacRed the bridge, saloon, the forward hou.e occupied by the offic ers and filled the cabins with stink pots. The passengers aud Capt. Peter son, the lighthouse keeper, who was ealing on the deck, were instantly killed; the quartermaster was shot uud thrown overboard. Thoy shot nt the engineer, hitting him on the wrist. He however succeeded in getting to the engine room and se cured his revolver. He afterward killed two pirates. The captain, who was in the sa loon, was told that if he would sub mit to the ship being looted uo harm would be done him or the pas sengers, but he no sooner stepped out than he was shot dead. After getting about $30,000 from the offic ers, passengers and crow, they smashed every bont the steamer had and then turned her toward the coast. When five miles off they gave several blasts with the whistle, which was the signal for their part ners in - crime to come out in six junks, iuto which the booty was placed. "When all was ready the highly elated heathen Jdarted .from the scene of tneir uevlltnes. Jieiore leavinc however, as a reward of merit, perhaps, they threw to their countrymen, who had assisted them by drawing the fires from the boil ers, a bac contnininc $200. The ship was then taken back to Hong Kong by tho chiet officer, where she presented u most deplorable sight. Capt. Pocock, who was in com maud of the vessel nnd who wasshot in the melee, was one of the best known men on the Chinese coast, and his death Is much regretted.

The tux levy in Yamhill county is twenty-two mills. The total is the same as lust year, although tho state levy is lower.
