SAN Francisco, March pa dispatch
from Portland, Oregon, to-day says the
temperance women this morning made a
regular siege on the City, dividing in parties
and visiting most of the saloons, among
them the lowest dens in town. One saloon
refused admittance, and on hearing that
other saloons were making a good paying
business of it, sent an invitation for them
to visit him, which they did. No converts
among the saloon keepers have been made
yet.

CHARTER PERPETUAL.

The Bylaws of this Company, and the
regulations governing insurance have, re-
Gently been very materially changed, pla-
cling it upon basis equal to that of any
fire Insurance Company in the State.
Important among these changes are the
following, viz:
Policies, instead of being perpetual, are
issued for five years.
All property is classified and the rate Of
premium is fixed according to the risk Of
the property.
Premium notes are taken, and all as
sessments are made on The notes.
Property is insured for not more than
two thirds of its actual cash value, and the
full amount of insurance paid in case of loss,
provided the loss be equal TO the amount of
insurance.
"Annual assessments only are made, ex-
cept in cases of heavy loss, and where a
special assessment is necessary.
The Company is therefore prepared to in-
sure property upon terms much more dcsira-
BILE than under the old system.
Applications may be made to any of the
Managers, Surveyors, or Secretary.
