While it may be some weeks before it is
officially announced sufficient of the facts
are known to enable US to say that the court
cannot find more than technical cause of
complaint against Maj. Kress. 1t seems
that mania has developed itself for bring
ing officers before court martial, when i'm
partial investigation by either the Dept
Commander or an officer of the Inspector
Generals Dept. would save the government
great expense, and the officers involved a
great deal of modification, for no matter
how thoroughly court may vindicate the
accused it is always 10 the very nature Of
things an unpleasant ordeal for an officer to
pass through. We can safely and do sin
cerely congratulate our friend on the re-
suit. We know this is fully concurred in
by all of Maj. Kress' military friends at
Dept. Headquarters and in the garrison.

General sherman's Reception.

1t is contemplated to give public recep-
ton to Gen. Sherman on Monday, 9th inst.
at Portland, Or, in connection with which,
the following letters are self explanatory:
VANCOUVER, w. T. Aug. II, 1883.
Post Commander, George Wright
Post, G. A. R., Portland, Or.
Comrade Commander:
| notice, with sincere pleasure, that your
Post has in consideration the matter of aid
ing in properly receiving Gen. Sherman on
his approaching official-visit to our
shores. On behalf of the G.. A. r. Post
which have the honor to command, offer
hearty fraternal assistance in any and all
ways tending to success of your efforts. We
are told that whatever is worth doing at all
is worth doing well, and we know that what
ever Portland does is well done, therefore,
let us have Portland do this thing which is
so proper to have well done, and let us, ex-
soldiers, fully and generously unite and all
do great honor to ourselves in honoring this
gallant veteran WHO so grandly applied his
God given talents in the dark hour of our
nations need In your magnificent pavilion
let 10000 citizens have an opportunity to
look upon and hear once more he, who from
Atlanta to Savannah brought glad tidings
OF great Joy. That representative American
soldier, Gen. H. A. Morrow citizen
soldier of tive great epochs in our country's
history-has magnanimousy rendered, as a
gratuity. for the reception of Gen. Sher-
man, to be given in Portland, the services
of the splendid band of the 2lst Infantry
l take the liberty OF suggesting that all G.
A. Il. Posts on lines Of railroad and steam
boat travel be invited to participate aud
that Mr.. Prescott be requested to order
reduced fare-say 40% otf-for the occasion.
We, over here hope that the great Willard
celebration will not prevent the offering of
the well merited, gracious tribute to the
Commanding General of the Army, who so
long aud so faithfully believed in and hoped
for the fulfllment OF the glorious destiny of
our great northwest, and as he now comes
in time to witness the first really tangible
prelude to the fruition of his hopes so we
may let our efforts to honor him be as the
olive of that great feast by which it is ill.,
tended to mark the fact that from Maine to
Oregon we are one united nation-and who,
under God, has contributed more than Gen
Sherman to make this possible.

Capt John Smith, Warm Springs In
dian Agency, is improving in health, and
expected to come to Vancouver this evening.
In giving a list of some of the presents at
the Handy wedding, we omitted mention of
a sewing machine presented by MIR. Henry
Christ. The omission was accidental.
At the new saw mill the boiler is set in
brick work, and they are now raising the
frame of the second story. The machinery
will all be set above 1876 high water mark.
Mr. Samuel Walker of Gray's river, Wah-
klakum county, was in the city yesterday,
where he makes occasional visits on bust
ness. He first landed in Vancouver in 1850.
1t is rumored that the Lurline is to be
taken around to Puget Sound this fall, to be
employed on one of the routes there, but
we are informed that there is no truth in
this report.
The rumor that the Lurline had been
sunk or injured near st. Helens on Monday
was canard, made out of whole cloth. The
regular trip up from Astoria was made as
usual without mishap of any kind.
Shannon and drunken bricklayer were
tackled by the authorities ON Monday, and
given an hour in which to leave the town.
benefit promised them should they remain
here.
East Portland is at last to have immunity
from the wandering herds Of cattle and
bands of horses and mules that have hereto
fore, unmolested made pasture grounds of
her streets. 1t is matter Of regret that
the same cannot be- said for Vancouver.
Mrs. c. M. Briggs returned home last
Friday, from visit up the river. 1t was
time she did come home, for the old gent
was getting kitteny, felt like staying out
late nights, and was learning many new
tricks for a sedate looking old man like
him.
Castello's circus, which performed in Van
couver on Thursday evening. was we'll at
tended, and is pronounced the best that
ever exhibited here. All the men connect
ed with it acted as gentlemen, and were
kind and obliging. They will always have
a welcome here

Dear Comrade:
Ere this reaches Vancouver you will
doubtless see by the papers what was done
last evening with regard to the contem.
plated reception to Gen. Sherman in this
city ON Monday evening the 9th inst. Sup
Elementary to the newspaper account
take pleasure in saying that your eloquent
and patriotic letter was read to the large
meeting Of old soldiers and tended to raise
enthusiasm to a high pitch. am author
lied to say that it is desired that yourself
with officers and members OF Ellsworth Post
be present and Join in the reception here
You are also authorized to invite the people
of Vancouver aud vicinity generally to be
present. 1t is expected that the reception
will be informal but none the less hearty
aud appreciAtive, and it is hoped that when
the General departs from our shores he will
take with him the pleasant assurance that
though his official army dutiea are com
pleted, his services are no more highly ap-
preciated anywhere than by the people Of
this great northwest.
Very Sincerely in +. c. and L.
