WE de not often have to complain OF
unfairneSs on the part of our Seattle con-
| tempOraricS, but it has been frequently Ie-
marked lately that in their telegraphic re-
ports OF the sailing of ocean steamers
from San Francisco, the latter always ap-
pear TO have ''sailed for Seattle" Now,
Seattle is no more the objective point OF
| those vessels than is Port Townsend, AID

way OF ''altering the returns" to give
strangers the impression that Seattle is
THE hub OF Washington Territory. Ocean
steamers usually sail for Olympia and
way ports, though sometimes they do not
go farther than Tacoma, in which case
that is their objective point.
SCARE.-Since the French barque Notre
Dame AuXiliatrice was quarantined here
a couple OF weeks ago, with mild case o.
smallpox on board, everybody has been
indulging fears of the spreading of the
dreaded contagion; and on Wednesday,
when it became known that Mr.. Bryant.
mail agent OH the Annie Stewart, had
been ordered into quarantine by health
officer Minor, on account of alarming
symptoms, there was quite an excitement
over it. 1t is altogether probable that
the vigilance of the health officer, togeth-
er with the natural healthfulness OF ON
climate, will prove safeguard against
serious consequences.
BY telegraph from Port Discovery, on
Wednesday afternoon, the sad news came
10 hand that a little lame hoy by the
name of Mckay. familiar to many of our
local readers, had just been drowned in
the bay at that place. His body was
found floating in the bay, end, as he was
seen alone on Pugh's wharf fishing less
than an hour before, it presumed that he
came to his death by accidentally falling
overheard. His parents went to Pert
Discovery about two weeks ago, and
formerly lived in New Tacoma.
Mn. C. B. Bagley, editor of the Olym-
pia Courier" paid Irondale a visit re-
Gently, and wrote up what he saw there,
which lie published in terss. half-column
article. The subject matter has been pub
lished heretofore in one form or another in
the ARGUS, or we would quote il verbatim.
1t is gratifying to notice that the resources
of Jeffel county are appreciated by
outsiders.
CAPT. Keene, formerly pilot OH the
Woleott, but for some time past a Skagii
valley farmer, surprised his Port Town
send friends by suddenly appearing OF
our streets few days ago. He is just
recruiting after a severe ''sick speil'' o.
several months duration. He wants tc
try "a life Oh the ocean wave" again.
THE ''Colonist'' says: The A. o. q. w j..
OF this city aud their friends will leave
Victoria on the morning of July Sd, ant
proceed to Olympia, where they will take
part in the celebration of the Fourth. re-
turning here on the morning OF the 5th.
The steamer Princess Louise has been
chartered.
GROSS Bros. have received another im.
mense stock of dry goods. clothing. fancy
goods, boots, shoes, etc. These gentle
men are energetic, buy for cash, and in.
deed sell best quality OF goods at bottom
figures. They surely deserve the patron
age of the public.
CAPTAIN Woody Spragne, for several
years master OF boats on the Columbia
river, is now captain OF the Annie Stew
