a success for the quaker Tea Party.

The Quaker Tea Party, given in the
Opera Hous. building by the ladies of
St. Johns aaf Epiphany Churches,
achieved anotI er success last night,
the second night The attendance
was largely increased, the room being
kept well filled all tie evening, and
the ladies were all put to extra ex>
ertions in serving up the delicious
and paIatable deiicacies of the season.
The ladies of Epiphany Church have
been very Jealous in their assistance.
An important and remunerative
feature of the entertainment, which
we unintentionally omitted to men,
tion before, is the smoking apart
ment. Mira. Capt. W. e. Brown
presided with much efficiency over
this department, and it was at her
suggestion it was COTTON up. She has
her stand near the door, keeping can
dies and other confections alec, and
has liberal patronage. The smoking
room is in the rear.
Lunch will be served again to-day,
as yesterday, and the tea party re
peated tonight. No charge fer ad>
mittance.

on the ocean washed west coast OF Van

with Puget Sound than Port Oxford
has with Astoria. Save its bars aud its
ice, the Columbia liver IS probably as
good place for ships as Puget Sound /;
but as between the entrance TO that
river and the entrance TO this Sound
there is no comparison. The Columbia
bar no longer admits ships OF deep

entry is possible for them it is over
zigzag channel only about 400 fest wide.

made by ignoramuses or by unscrupu-

AGAINST TERRITORIAL DIVISION

The Dayton wv. IT, Chronicie cdito-
rally says:
Concerning this question we haye said
but little. not deoming it Of sufficient
importance to be entertained by the
people OF the eastern portions Of Ore
gon and Washington. Any measure
that would be productive Of benefit to
our people will gain our hearty support;
but the present situation OF affairs indi-
Gates, to our mind, that the division now
advocated by some Of our contempora-
ries is impracticable for more reasons
that the adherents of the scheme have
not proven it to be possible or the re-
suits beneficial; but when We are cons
vinced that they are right, then no
support will DO moro heartily given
than our own.
Several papers now claim the honor
Of being the originators Of tho new
scheme. and the discussion on.that point
comprises about all said by the press
on the subject For our part. We are
bitterly opposed to being formed into a
State with tho Cascade Mountains for a
western boundary; we are opposed 10
having the coast taken from US and
placed under the control OF another
State; we are opposed to having our
Territory. which will eventually become
one Of the grandest States in the unicp.
cut up 80 that we will not have our har-
bors and variety Of productions. Geo
graphically speaking. our Territory
suits very well. We have one of the
finest harl,ors in the world within her
boundaries; we have, you might say,
two climates with different resources
and productions; in short, we have what
is to become State of almost une-
qualed wealth.
The papers which are agi,atiEg this
subject speak Of paying tribute TO the
western portions Of the State and Ter
ritory. How will il be when there is a
division madeY What will be the re-
suit when these harbors are placed in
another State and the little transporta-
