Cor. San Francisco Bulletin.
TACOMA, Aug. l5.-No one sub
jcct, for the last two years, has oc-
cupied more of the attention of the
general public, spectators in land
and real estate agents on the north
Pacific coast, more particularly the
people on Puget Sound, than the
place where the Directors Of the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company
would locate the terminus of the
road on the Sound. The latter has
been the subject of discussion in the
Offices of bankers, merchants and
store-keepers; in the parlors oflead-
ing families; in the shops Of intelli-
gent mechanics and at the fire-sides
Of humble laborers. 1t has been
the stock in trade Of numerous edi-
torials, newspaper discussions and
any amount of good natured humor.
A certain portion Of the public at
tribute the delay of the Board of Di-
rectors in naming publicly the loca-
tion to the ''land ring" that is sup
posed to exist within the Board,
who, it is supposed, control the op-
erations for speculative purposes in
lands along the line. 1t is very easy
to accuse private individuals or cor
porate bodies of undue selfishness
and corrupt motives in their public
acts, but it is quite another matter
to establish such accusations by
facts. One important matter is more
certain; the terminus is fixed at
Those who had high hopes ofsee-
ing their respective towns rapidly
built up, and their property greatly
enhanced in value are much disap-
pointed, and many who spcculated
in lands and town lots elsewhere on
the Sound than at Tacoma, will lose
money. Olympia had reasonable
hopes and strong expectations ofse-
curing the terminus; Seattle had
still strong hopes and was much
more confident of securing this ia
vor. Other towns, further down on
the Sound, were not wanting in their
advantages for such an important
object. Tacoma however, has won
the long looked for and coveted
prize. 1t has the advantages for a
terminus and town site that are
not to be dcspised and that others
have right to respect.
The little town of Tacoma is forty
miles below Olympia, twenty-five
miles above Seattle and $50 miles
from the ocean. 1t is built on the
property of Gen. Carver, and con-
sisted before the terminus was made
public, Of his own private residence,
small hotel, a saloon and two or
three cabins. Tacoma was first
named so by John w. Ackerson of
the firm ofHanson, Ackerson, & Co.,
and derives its hicfreputation from
their splendid lumber mill establish
ed there by Mr.. Ackerson in 1868,
and in successful operation ever
since. The little town has now all
the appearance Of enc of the small
mining towns of the olden time,
with its extemporizcd stores, restau-
rants, hotels, drinking and gambling
saloons, churches, and saloon
dance-housc for the patrons of vile
squaws. These buildings, on the
old town site, form no part of the
terminus or the new town site of the
new city of Tacoma, but are merely
temporary buildings until the ter
minus town is laid out in blocks lots
and streets.

THE BAY OF TACOMA.

Among the many attractions and
commercial advantages Of the Sound
the Bay Of Tacoma will compare fa-
vorably in both respects. 1t is as
beautiful sheet of water for it's size
as can be easily imagined. 1t is at
least four miles long, an average of
four miles in breadth, and a circum-
ference of l6 miles. In it's forma

last rose of summer" and others are ia
vorites in every circle. Although there is
tinge of melancholy in Il these songs
there is a seductive charm in their plant

Is said that the music, as well the Ian

The ferry landing question is being agi-
tated in Rock Island-with ice three feet
thick at said landing. There's nothing like

That's what the people think over here.
They have been cheated out of some $1,000
or $1,000 by the ferry company, and their
city council defed, and their public landing

regard to their rights in future.

IMPROVED UNION Betting. The
great desideratum has at last been
reached in the manufacture of betting.
The honor and profit too, is due to those
wide awake manufacturers, Messrs. Clark
4 Slemmer liz North Third st. Philadel-
phia Pa, whose advertisement may be
found in this paper The leading idea
the principle of this patents based on
that old saying that in union there is
strength being composed Of strong well
stretched canvass securely and compactly
pressed and rivetted between two layers of
pure OAK tanned light leather, the three
making belt of ordinary thickness and of
great strength and durability with cohe-
sion amply sufficient to preclude all posi-
bllits OF stretching or running crooked.
For extra heavy work these layers are
doubled to make the belt of any thickness
required and durability that is nearly ey-
erlasting. The Pennsylvania r. r. and
the Reading r. r. are using this betting
in their shops with great success. That
this betting more fully than any other now
made meets all the requirements both for
extra heavy and for light work for which
betting is used, there is not the least ques-
ton in the minds of practical manufactur-
ers who have examined it. The patent
was only granted last December and the
betting is already so assured success that
several small fortunes cannot buy the right.
We shall use the Union Belt on The
ARGUS machinery as soon as our order can
be filed, and then shall be happy to have
it examined by all those interested in such
matters.

TIE PLAY, last evening, was witnessed
by large and fashionable audience, but the
performance was a disappointment. The
play is nothing without Mr., Adams at his
best, and he was at his worst. He owes it
TO his reputation to cease playing till he
RECEIVERS his voice When he is well his
voice is musical and fascinating, his elocu-
ton almost faultless, and his acting superb.
Last night he exhibited no good quality of
any sort, and his support was hardly
passable-the only even tolerable character
being Philip Ray, by Mr. Knowles. The
ship and boat scene, of course, could not
be bad, but all else was very bad. And
added to all the badness the horrible mu-
sic was hardly to be endured the miser-
able scraping in the pathetic parts being
absolutely shocking to people who have
nerves

In other words, previous to Murdoch $
management of affairs, it cost only some
ten or twelve thousand dollars to run the
city the extra expenses in 1862, 1868,
and 1867 being on account of rebuilding
Camden bridges and matchmaking Camden
road. The people long for chance to get
back to the good old days of Democratic
Mayors, and will probably find a way to
do II in March.
