from the Tacoma Herald

To give our readers an approximate
idea Of what Puget Sounds exports Of
coal and lumber amounted to in 1878,
we suboin the statement following:
Not less than 10000 tons of Seattle
coal were placed on board ship at that
place: at Bellingham Bay, $3.50 tons
were sent aboard; while at this port
1000 tons were thus disposed Of The
total quantity of coal sold on the Sound
last year to consumers not resident
thereon was in the neighborhood Of
$4,000 tens.
The lumber cut in the mills at Port
Gamble exceeded 5O,00O,000 feet; at
Blakely and Madison together, co.
900, 900; at Tacoma and Seabeck, So
100000; at Discovery, 100000; at
Ludlow, 3,O0O,OO0; at Milton and Seat
tie, 20,OOO,OOO feet.
By the above, we mean the quanti-
ties exported only, the aggregate of
which is nearly 2O0,0OO,0O0 feet. The
larger portion of the lumber cut in the
mill at Seattle is sold in that city. The
mill at Ludlow was shut down almost
the whole year; the mill at Discovery
several months, the mill at Madison
few weeks. while it ran part Of the
time eight hours day, only. Not a
stick was cut in the mill at Utsalady.
If all these mills were taxed to their
utmost, the lumber they would turn
out in the course of year would con-
siderably exceed three hundred million
feet, and the task would require but
little night work.
We think 100000 tons of coal, and
2lO,OOO,OOO feet of lumber is very
safe estimate of our exports during the
present year, the transportation of
which will require about six hundred
ocean vessels, or a daily average of
two arrivals and two departures of
such crafts during the ,ear.

"GaObble' Growers LOOseness.
from the Philadelphia Bulletin.


1t is dreadful thing to contemplate
in these days when Democracy has ex-
hausted itself in denunciation of Re
publican dishonesty and corruption;
but it seems to be sadly true that an
other good man has gone wrong in the
Democratic camp, this time no less
shining light than the famous Gov.
Grover, of Oregon, the friend of Tilden
and the comrade of the late lamented
Cronin. The Oregon legislature has
been digging into the records of the
State department, and has developed a
condition of things under Growers ad-
ministration which moves it to charge
that eminent statesman and would-be
President-maker with looseness, ex-
travagance and corruption. 1t appears
to be only triAc of about 100000,
but out in Oregon they consider that
quite enough to make a stir about.
The commission appointed by the leg
islature puts the ex-governor in light
which harmonizes completely with his
Tilden dispatches. The country can
now understand why Grover signed his
dispatches "Gobble."

Lynden, Whatcom Co. Jan. 5, 7!

Lynden, Whatcom Co. Jan. 5, '79.
In the northern portion of this county,
bordering on British Columbia, there
are thousands of acres of good unoccu-
pied lands. We have a mild climate
and prolific soil. Our greatest need
is a -four and saw-mill. While our
lands yield from forty to sixty bushels
of wheat to the acre there is not saw
or flour mill in the county.
We will give good mill site with
ten acres of land to the man that will
build saw and grist mill thereon. 1t
is estimated that there is between $780,
900 and $4,000 worth of flour i'm
ported into this county yearly, and
mostly from California. We wish to
stop this drain of money from the
county.
Lynden is situated on the north
bank Of the Nootsack river, naviga-
bic stream, emptying into Bellingham
bay. We are outside of the railroad
limits. We have splendid timber for
numbering purposes.
For further particulars enquire of
Mr.. Chas. Stanley, Burton House,
Portland, Ogn. H. A. JUDSON.

While the Lutterworth was laying
becalmed in the tropics large shark
was observed swimming around the
ship. A large hook with = chain at
tached was baited with a four pound
piece Of pork. The shark made for
it and bolted it. In hauling him up
the chain parted, and he cody swal-
lowed the hook, chain and pork.
Another hook was then baited, which
he instantly seized, biting n three
inch rope in twain and also swallowing
it with another four-pound piece of
pork. Another hook was then baited
with a similar piece ofpork, and with
this the shark was caught and landed
on our main deck. All hands cleared
from him for he was in terrible fut-
ter. His tail was cut off with the
carpenters AK, which quieted him a
little. Some said it was not the
same shark we had hooked before.
He was cut open, when we found the
two large shark hooks and cham and
rope snugly coiled away with eight
pounds Of pork in his locker. 1t
seems almost increditable, but all
hands are witnesses to it.

A letter from Berlin says: Ozark
as these wintry days is the gloom that
is spreading over Germany. General
dependency and bitterness prevail.
The depression of industry and trade
is worse than ever, so that the bank
ruptcy court has to enlarge its build
ings; the distress among the lower
classes is extreme; the papers tell heart
rendering stories about starving peo-
pie; the clergy and the poor law guar
dians appeal every day to the public
for contributions in order to stave of
the worst sufsrings Of the very poor

The superiority Of national bank cur
rency over every other kind of bank
paper ever put in circulation is thus
clearly stated by the leading Demo
cratic paper Of the country, the New
York World, "For nationality Of cir
culation, currency in every state
and territory with no liability to
annoying percentages of discount, Sc
curity against counterfeiters and sub
stantial safety for the note holder and
for the depositor alike, we scarcely ex-
pect to see better paper money, or,
if few notifications were made, a
better banking system. The national
bank note is every way preferable to
the Government promissory note which
is called legal tender, but which for
all that, like the promissory note of an
individual, il simply debt and not
money"

The Times London special says:
The distress of the poor increases,
and with it the masters continue to
decrease wages, of the men standing
out. They have lesson to learn be-
fore they understand that trade is
leaving this country. American long
cloths are cheaper and better than
the English article, and are sold in
all large drapery stores in London.
This single example of the utter fu-
tility of the struggle against the new
condition of things might impress
the workingmen if the politicians did
not tell them that the policy of the
present government stopped the mills
and brought starvation to their doors.
While flags were flying over Ameri-
can banks on resumption day, the
black flag of poverty dominated the
manufacturing districts of England.
The hungry, despairing crowd in its
shadow increases daily, crying for
bread.

An incident of crossing the plains
in early days was told by a clever lady
at the breakfast table one morning in
Frisco. A Dutchman and wife had
travelled west and arrived at Salt Lake,
where they had halted for few weeks.
The Mormons got around the Dutch
man and coaxed him to join them. At
ter retiring one night in their canvas
covered wagon, the good Dutchman
broke the matter to his better half,
limiting to her that the Mormons had
told him he had better "stay, settle
among dem, and take some more vives"
"How many wives you thinks you vantr
asked Katrina. The Dutchman thought
''five more would make half dozen
already" whereupon the old wife got
down her bodice, and slipped from it
what the Dutchman called the "breast-
board, vich vas made from Wisconsin
hickory, vas very tough" and she laid
the hickory fierce and fast upon the old
man, who shutfied out of the wagon
and feel in a ditch. The old man got
up, said his stomach vas cold, but his
back vas hot His wife cried out:
GLOW many wives you thinks you want
now, old fooll" But the Dutchman
felt and expressed that one was enough.

The Sullivan Progress under the
euphoneous head of ''Too Thin" tells
the old, old story as follows:
"Now and then there is merchant
who does not advertise, and tells his
customers that he saves that expense,
and gives it to his patrons. 1t sounds
little plausible, and might catch a
man who never thinks, but it couldn't
be stuffed down an ordinary intelli-
gent man. The intelligent man knows
that merchant who does not adver-
,tise in this age of the world, gets very
little trade, and has to make a big per
cent. on what he does sell to make a
living. The intelligent man also
knows that if the aforesaid merchant
should happen to save cent by not
advertising, he would be the last man
to give it to his customers; he is not
liberal enough. He isn't that kind
of doughnut. Moreover the intelii-
gent man knows that it is the nimble
six-pence that makes the money.
The wide awake merchant that adver-
tises what he has, tells the people to
come and see him,-treats them po-
litely when they do come-he is the
merchant who sells goods enough to
make money on small, very small
profit; and it will always be saving
to your pocket to trade with him.
Read the advertisements in the Pro
gress and in the Journal, and then
trade with the men who are liberal
enough to invite patronage; and who
do not sit back and wait for some
other merchant to invite the people to
town."

The Catholic Sentinel has the fol-
lowing in reference to Bishop Seghers
who is soon to come to Portland to
enter upon his new field of labor as
coadjutor to the venerable Arch
bishop F. N. Blanchett:
Bishop Seghers left Victoria on the
I'd inst, on board a sailing vessel, for
the purpose of visiting the mission
aries and Indians on the western coast
of Vancouver Island, and when he
returns, in about a month, he will
make preparations for his final de-
parture from the scenes of his first
Episcopal labors, and where he is be-
loved by people Of every rank, and of
all religious persuasions. mall prob
ability Bishop Seghers will arrive in
Portland about the middle of Feb
ruary.
A late issue of the Victoria Colo
mist contains the following: ''His
Lordship Bishop Seghers has been
appointed to the archbishoprick Of
ElilcSd, AS!dtlC uTkcN, W YtUttONS
in6deli,.m. His Lordship will shortly
leave for Oregon, to act as coadjutor
to Archbishop Blanchet, with right
of succession; but previous to his de-
parture he will deliver a valedictory
sermon to his congregation, by whom
he is grestly beloved. To under
stand the meaning Of his lordsnip's
appointment to the archbishopric of
Emesa, it is necessary to know that
it is the practice of the Catholic
Church to appoint dignitaries to the
sees of those ancient Catholic diocese
which are now under the domination
of in6dels, and the object of the
Church in doing so is to preserve the
Episcopal succession to those sees.
The prelates thus appointed are dis
pensed from the obligation of resid-
ing in their dioceses, and it is in con-
sequence of this dispensation that
his lordship, Right Rev. Seghers, will
reside at Portland, Oregon.
