A CHOICE LOCATION.

Some of the best land and most eligi-
lie locations for farms ia this section OF
Western Washington is in the neigh
borhool Of that beautiful body of water
known as Lake Washington. A num-
Der of families have located in that
section during the past season, and
more are intending 20 locate there
Some parties went out from this city
last week to take up claims in the i'm
mediate vicinity Of the lake, and sue

tions. One of the parties had taken a
farm on the lake front, and was busily
engaged with force Of men slashing,

tended settling on the same piece OF
land. came over with boat load OF
lumber for putting up house They
were considerably chagrined to find
they had been 80 completely forestalled
ia their intentions by the first party,
and for a time it looked as if there
might be trouble. The matter was
amicably arranged, finally, by the par
ties in possession purchasing the lum-
Der they had brought over, and com
pensating them for their trouble.
Most of the choice locations on the
lake front have already been taken,
but there are still many good claims a
short distance back. There are many
families in the vicinity at present. and
the settlers intend pctitloning for a
mail route shortly. which will probably
be located at Mr. BIairs place. When
We coneider that it will be but short
time before the farmers in that vicinity

Seattle by means of canal between
Lake Union and Lake Washington, the
value of good farm thereabouts can
readily be understood

A "REMINISCENCES.

In his speech last evening, Col. Lar
rabee illustrated the great disadvantage
OF our situation as IA Territory. and the
desirability of becoming State in an
eminently practical aud convincing
manner. by reminding the audience of
the great injury done to US through the
selfishness of Oregon's Senators and
Congressman in first changing the
charter of tho Northern Pacific Rail
road so as to make the direct trans
montana line of the road to Puget
Sound "a mere branch with the main
line down the Columbia river and
then in the effort now being made by
Senator Mitchell and his colleagues to
compel the abandonment of said branch
so as to leave the road to terminate at
an inland town on the south side of the
Columbia, with one hundred miles of
river navigation and dangerous bar
between it anu the open sea, an insult
which never would have been offered
To u as sovereign State with a fair
representation in both Houses of Con-
gress. In speaking upon the subject of
the railroad, the Colonel stated that
IN the closing hours of the thirty.
sixth Congress, of which lie was q
member from the State of Wisconsin,
nm effort was made to pass The bull to
charter the Northern Pacific Railroad.
When the bill came up, the Washing.
ton. Territory Delegate, General Isaac /.
Stevens. whose seat was near him, be-
ing unable to gain the floor. appealed
10 tho Colonel to speak in behalf of the
bill. to which he promptly responded,
AMI succeeding in obtaining the floor,
earnestly urged the passage of the bill;
but in vain. for ut that time the country
was trembling with agitation incident
to the secession of the Southern States
and the impending civil war.
The Colonel's speech was confined
principally to an exhibition of the
great political aud material advantage
which would result from the orgrniza-
ton ola State government. His argu-
ments were convincing and we'll receiy-
cd by the audience; in fact the meet
ing was tue largest ever held in Seat.
