LA CENTER. ITEMS.

On Saturday evening last, we held
another exhibition here at the Grange
Hall, which called out quite a large
audience and seemed to give general
satisfaction. The exercises consisted
of dialogues, declarations, vocal and
instrumental music, and the reading
of paper gotten up under the aus
pices of the Hesperian Society. The
credit of getting up this entertain
ment is due to a great extent to the
efforts of Mrs. J. c. Miller. These
exhibitions are becoming quite popu-
lar with our people here, and evident
ly, are the means of creating healthy
state of public sentiment in educa-
tional matters, as we'll as promoting
a better social feeling among both
young and old.
The La Center school is again run
ming, and bids fair to be as full as il
was the previous term. Prepared by
the discipline of the past three
months, the pupils come in much bet
ter frame of mind; being susceptible
of closer mental application, better
cooperation, and higher degree Of
interest in their respective studies
This district possesses the material
for large and prosperous graded
school. Such an institution is badly
needed, and will do more towards
building up a town, calling to our
midst the better classes of society,
and of building up the moral and ed
vocational interests of society in gen.
eral. h.

FREE HOMESTEADS.

The Oregonian in its issue of the
23d instant, corrected several of the
most fragrant mistakes which for
mer editorial in that paper perpe-
trated on the subject of "F'ree home
steads on the public lands;" but on
the question of cost of homesteads it
is still q fault. Quotations from the
Revised Statutes are we'll enough in
their way, but in this instance the
O'egonion did not go far enough when
making the following observation:
The revised statutes say that to the regis
ter and receiver there shall be allowed each
"a commission to be paid by the homestead
applicant, at the time of entry, of one per
centum on the cash price rs fixed by law, of
the land applied for; and like commission
when the claim is finally established, and the
certificate therefor issued as the basis of a
patent There is likewise allowed to regis
tiers and receivers Jointly, Il fee of fifteen cents
per hundred words, for testimony reduced by
them to writing for claimants, in establishing
presumption and homestead rights.
That will do so far as the Eastern
States are concerned, but Oregon and
Washington Territory are on the Pa
cifc coast where the twelfth subdi-
vision of section 223S of the Revised
Statutes applies as follows: Greg
listers and Receivers in California,
Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Col
orado, Idaho, New Mexico, Arizona,
Utah, Wyoming, and Montana, are
each entitled to collect and receive
fifty per centum ON the fees and COM
missions provided for in the first,
third and tenth subdivisions of this
section"
One per cent. each to the Register
and Receiver at date Of entry, would
be two per cent, but fifty per cent.
of two per cent. is to be added, which
is three per cent. Three per cent. on
the cash value of the land at date of
original entry, and the same again at
time of final proof, makes six per cent.
as the total commissions. An eighty
acre homestead at $3.50 per acre. is
$500, six per cent. of which is sl2;
now add So, the amount of the Gov
eminent fee, and we have sly, the
total cost of the claim. The cost of
a soldiers homestead of 160 acres, on
81 40 land. would he as follows: Six
per cent. on s400, the cash value of
the land, is 1874, to which add $40,
the Government fee, and 81 the fee
for a certificate copy of soldiers dis
charge, and the amount, $50, will be
the total cost of a soldiers homestead.

NEWS BY TELEGRAPH.

LONDON, Feb Ga Vienna dispatch says
Austria will not submit to the erection on her
frontier of the territories defined in the Rus
sian terms of peace, and unless the terms are
modified by the conference Austria will fight,
with or without England.
Another correspondent says there is not
much probability that Austria will do more
than protest against the terms of peace, what
ever their terms may be.
The Times leading editorial says; The
struggle is between Count Andrassy's policy
of the maintenance of Austrian interests as
heretofore declared, and the temptation Of
fered by Russia to counterbalance those in
terests.
\ Berlin dispatch says Germany is prepar-
ing to send eight ironclads to the Mediterra-
mean in the event of war.
Sr. PETERSBURG, Feb. 21-The Agence says
the conditions of peace published in London
are Inaccurate. Russia has never demanded
the expulsion of the Mussulman inhabitants
of Bulgaria. She has only demanded a recall
of Turkish officials and troops. Russia does
not hand over a portion of Bosnia to Servia.
The question of the straits is reserved for the
consideration OF Europe. The published YER
sion contains other gross inaccuracies.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Feb. Eft is stated the
peace negotiations will occupy another week
unless Russia insists on them being brought
TO close.
Nomvk Pasha has gone to St Petersburg to
ton of the terms of peace.
Austria and England oppose the retroces-
sion of Bessarabia, and France and Italy sup
port them. 1t is said that Germany counsels
Russia to renounce her claims, but Russia
seems determined to persist.
VIENNA Feb. PA dispatch from Con
stantinople maintains that the pause in ne
gotiations is owing to Russia insisting on the
cesson of the Turkish iron-clads and oceupa-
ton of Constantnople. According to Con-
stantinople advices, England is prepared to
respond to such measures by entering the
Black sea. Germany is endeavoring to med
late between England and Russia. The task
has not been much facilitated by the pubica-
ton of the peace negotiations.
The meeting Of the conference is once more
doubtful in consequence of the objections OF
Austria and England to Russas proposed
limitations of its programme.
ROME, Feb. 26.-It is announced that the
coronation of Pope Leo XIII will take place
sunday next in the Sistine chapel. All new
appointments to pontifcal court officers will
be made by the end of the week, to be in read
mess for coronation.

CAPE HORN ITEMS.

At Cape Horn Mountain farmers
are busy putting in spring crops,
clearing land and planting gardens.
The rolling hills, many of them largely
devoid of timber, look as we'll as
freshly plowed; they are ready for the
sower. There is vacant government
land in this vicinity. The cream of
it has of course been taken up, but
for the man who is is not afraid of
work there are still tracts in the burn
which will be profitable to take and
cultivate. J. E. G. Durgan, who has
one of the finest farms on the noun
tain, is adding some new land to his
acreage. He has about 100 acres
under cultivation. The Republicans
of this neighborhood, which is just

represent them at the Kalama conven-
vention.

Feb. 81, 1878.

The Oregonian of Monday says: At
length compromise has been effected
between the Oregon Steamship Com
pany and the Pacific Coast Steamship
Company in relation to fares and
freights. Arrangements increasing
and establishing the rates for passen-
gers and freights were included Sat-
urday between the head offices in
San Francisco, and the result tele-
graphsd to the branch Offices in this
city. No further particulars were
given than a brief dispatch to the eff
feet: "Lines have compromised; re-
turn to old rates" The ..old rates"
alluded TO were s25 cabin and $3.50
steerage; freights 50 and 81 per ton,
according TO class, and SO far as can
be ascertained the tariff on freight
will hereafter be, for wheat and -four,
50 per ton, other freight, 81 per ton.
We understand one of the conditions
of the compromise is that the steamers
belonging to the P. c. S. 5. Co, shall
be allowed to remain in port-both
at San Francisco and at Portland
two DAYS longer than those of the old
line. This to enable them to have
more time in obtaining passengers
and freight Full particulars of the
compromise are expected by the next
mail

THAT PASS.

Affairs of the Northern Pacific r..

the Sound papers, in their discus
sions of the mountain pass which shall
finally pass the Walla Walla grain to

Tacoma Herald sends out its carrier
dove and discovers a good pass, the
Seattle papers pass it round as i'm
practicable to pass in any way, and
poor Tacoma has to hunt up another
one. while Seattle exalts the beauties
of the Skagit or Snoqualmie Pass,
which is in turn demolished by the
Olympia and Tacoma papers. The
brotherly love OF the Sound embryo
cities for one another passeth all I'M
Outstanding. We pass.
