SEINE distance we noticed ground broke
and grading done for the road towards
| Portland But when the track will be
| laidIrom the Cascades 10 Portland we
would not pretend to predict. We
observed 10 particular change in the
appearance of Vancouver and other
points along The river, till We reached
Albina, Just below East Portland. Here
we noticed many new building erected
and other improvements being made
and among them large number of
men, the greater portion Of whom were
Cinnamon, grading and extending a
railroad down the river and construc-
ton trains moving over it. We have
not sutfic emily learned the movements
of the railroad companies to form Il
fair and definite opinion Of their pur
pose. Reports are conflicting, although
we find it generally conceded that
magnificent dry dock will be completed
here, that the Willamet will be bridgcd
and that magnificent union depot
will be built in the north part CT Port
land. Upon the strength of this e
lief real estate is nov held at almost
fabulous prices, and many sales have
been made at large profit upon the
price paid by the sellers who had own
ed but O. short time. Property pur-
chased less than year ago has been
lately sold at double the purchase price,
and so far as we can learn, since here,
there is at present no tendency to a fall
in prices Of real estate. To any skep-
teal man in regard to the future great
ness of Portland, the late movements
in real estate would indicate that some
of the people were becoming insane
But there are strong indices pointing
to permanent growth Of Portland. 1t
has at present the capital to outbuild
other places in the Northwest for su.
premacy, and if money will win over
the natural advantages of other towns
Portland seems disposed to use that
money freely. Already, since the slow
movement of Congress in making pro-
vision to improve the Lower Columbia
and its mouth, the question is neng
discussed with considerable show of be-
coming a success, Of the raising a mil
lion and half of money here to do
this work and not depend longer upon
Congress for appropriations The men
who are and have been long identified
with Portland have become rich here,
and own largely in real estate will not
give up'the struggle for the supremacy
Of the Northwest, without sacrifice,
and they are now quite fully walked up
to the question. When we have tarried
here n few days longer we may have
better comprehension Of things.
We are quartered at the Clarendon,
mine hosts Zieber Il Knowles, who
always know the duties and fell the
responsibilities of keeping good hotel
and are deservedly popular.

W 'ahe Piuce uurlnS the ensuing nve
years and perhaps in less time what is
to save the circumvcntion and decline
of Portland as the wheat trade and
traffic Of the Northwest? Her present
accumulated capital, if used without
stint, can do much to delay these other
enterprises to later period. But un-
less that capital can so improve the
Columbia Bar and the Columbia and
Willamette rivers as to make the costs
and insurance upon carrying vessels and
their ,soes as low as upon vessels
and cargoes that take the wheat from
Puget Sound. Portland cannot CON-
mand long and hold the grain traffic
of the Northwest and many Of the
heavy real estate owners, as we'll as
traders, are beginning to foresee this
fact and | am told that some owners
of real estate are seeking to unload
themselves Of their real estate, while it
is up, in consequence OF the uncertain
prospect for the future growth Of the
city in the near future. To our mind
under all these prospects and predic-
tions, the good and energetic people
of Portland are by no means in a safe
posi- ion to bid defiance to Puge. Sound,
to Aquina Bay, or to any other port
of the Northwest. Her policy is to
expend her money freely to make the
navigation of the Columbia and Snake
from the sea to the mouth of the Clear.

The Smallest Baby Alive.

Carson NsF.l Appeal.
A gentleman fron Candelaria, informs
us that the smallest baby in the world was
born i n that camp at noon on the Bird inst.
The father is a miner in the employ OF the
Northern Belle mine, aud weighs 100
pounds The mother, is a stout, healthy
woman, weighing perhaps 100 pounds.
The child is n male, as perfectly formed
as any human being can be, but upon it's
birth it only wei Shed ounces. Its face
is about the size Of horse chestnut, and
the size OF its limbs can be ina gined when
we say that ring worn on the little nm
ger of the mother was easily slipped over
its foot nearly up to the knse. Our infor-
mant states that it was the opinion OF
the Attending physicians that the child
would live and prosper in good health,
Notwithstanding its diminutive proper
tons. The midget is so strong that three
Of its size could play at hide and seek in
y cigar box. This is believed to be the
smallest baby ever born.

GuIfeam Smre 60 Hang.

Rumors have been circulated about the
possible action OF the Judges in the Guiteau
case. Responsible people have cir
cnlated statements indicating that the
Judges had been talking freely with their
friends about the case, and that there was a
chance OF new trial being ordered. One
OF the most prominent lawyers in the coun-
try, AN ex-Judge, said to-day that, without
knowing single thing about what the
Judges may say, there is not the slightest
chance Tor Guiteau's having new trial.
The Judges would have to go great deal
out OF their way to find a single peg upon
| which to hang a decision in his interest;
snd, he added ''you may be sure that
they are not going ont of the way to make
any point in his favor. The fact Of the
case Is this: That public opinion does have
great influence in the settling of this case,
anu the Judges would have TO be made OF
very stern material, indeed, to go in the
lace OF this public opinion. You must
know that Judges are simply men, after all,
and share, to a graat degree, the prejudice
and feelings Of the public. There is Moth
ing more certain in this world than that
Mr. GuItean, accidents excepted, will hang
on the 5Oth day OF June, the day ordered by
the court"
