The Panama canal is progressing
under very discouraging circumstan-
ces. The Europeans brought there to
work are not able to stand the climate
very long. The laborers not carried
off by disease are employed largely in
digging graves and burying their dead
comrades. The miasma that is gen.
Grated in the swamps in the country
the canal is located is of deadly type
to any countryman save the native
who is to the manor born. The or
dinary labor required there will have
to be done by the natives, that is the
pick and shovel work, or heavy sac
rifice of life will be the consequence
after having lived there q short time,
of course where skilled work is needed
it will have to be done by mechanics
from some quarter.

country. Prominent men are making
active preparations to develop an iron
lode which lies east ef the town. In
addition to this the old town of Mon
tesano is improving materially. 1t is
thought that within year the county
will number from 5000 to 5000, and
perhaps more. Gray's Harbor has al

some of the prominent railroads would
reach that point. Some of them are
already considering it, as well as a

Vanderbilt has unloaded $4,000, 600
in government bonds at discount Of
half a years interest. 1t is supposed
that this is to prepare for second
payment, which in few days will be
due on the Nickel-plate railroad pur-
chase. 1t probably is the first direct
evidence which the public has re-
ceived that he was the purchaser Of
that road. There is nothing in the
transaction itself remarkable; except
that the son of man who commsnced

Mr.. E. Meeker of Puyallup seems to
intend extending his hop raising OPP
erations considerably, it being stated
that he has for that purpose recently
purchased three farms in the lower
White river valley, paying therefor
the sum of S42, 900. Tile first of these
three farms, consisting of 100 acres,
purchased from Peter Saar for $4,000,
the second with same number Of acres
was bought from S. r. Guiberson for
$4,000, and the third containing 240
acres was secured from John Langs-
ton, the price paid being S27, 900.
These purchases would seem to indi-
cate that Mr.. Meeker has confidence
in the White river country as hop
growing country.

"The Democrats will be careful not to

he had retired from politics, and trans
ferred the war they had opened on him

They drew up the plan of the battle,

on that line. 1t will be fought out if
they thrust themselves forward. If the
