From a gentleman JUS. from the Koc.
tenay country, the Portland Sfandard
mas the following budget Of news:
Chief Engineer Roger, a. the head O.
the Canadian Pacific Railway surveying
party, Is IN the codntry. One diy,si %
OF Ills party has already fully explored
tne region lying beyond the two arms o.
toe Columbia river, where the road will
pass over the Sekirk range and through
what Is known as Kicking Horse Pass,
along tae course of Beaver and Moberly
MYERS. The result of this exploration is
matter OF great surprise to the chief
engineer. This gentleman expected to
encounter very great difficulties, though
not 30 great as the builders were certain
70 meet With in the first mapped out
route around the bend of the river. The
dimeulfies OF Kicking Horse Pass are
comparatively nothing, and the work
VIII Dc pushed very rapidly, once the
force crosses the river.
The hootenay and Columbia River
railway and Navigation Company has
ordered second small steamer which
Is to be used in navigating Kootenay
River and the lakes, during the exami-
nafi@n, or rather the exploration of the
region by the advance force Of survey
ors. In addition to this the company
mas opened up wagon road between
the northern Pacific, at Sand Point.
and bonner's Ferry, for the purpose of
transporting the machinery for she new
steamer to the latter point. In the
prosecution of this vast enterprise, the
capitalists interested are showing that
they realize what has been undertaken;
ana determination to carry ii forward
70 q successful issue. The results of
this enterprise In developing the miner
al, timber and agricultural interests of
this domain will materially affect and
further the prosperity of the Pacific
Northwest. The scheme will make
quite all OF the territory south of the in
line tributary to Portland.
Regarding the enterprise of reclaim
ing the lands ON the kootenay River,
some time ago as being in
the hands OF an English company, il is
that very little is anticipated
owing to the fact that the scheme ap-
pears 20 be in the hands Of ayounR
man who IL not backed by any man with
capital. In fact. the man seems to have
cut wide swathe upon mere preten-
sions. de has succeeded in becoming
fuli-aedged justice of the peace at
Bonner's Ferry, and has issued FIRE
proclamation.
Reports from the mines at Kootenav
are very hatterinR. The yield this sea-
son has been much better than antici-
pated. the outlook ia very promising
indeed.
Our informant states that the woods
in the kootenay country are on fire
and the smoke il very dense in that re-
zion.

HE ASTORIA STRAAfRRs. --On and after
Wednesday, September 9th, the popular
steamer Wide West will be Withdrawn
from the route between Portland and
Astoria, because the fishing season is
over, and the summer travel to the coast
has nearly ceased. During the past
five months she has made the run daily,
Wednesdays excepted, with remarkable
regularity, leaving Portland at 5 a. M,
touching at the I'VE regular landings,
and reaching Astoria at II 80 q. m. Re-
turning same day, leaving Astoria at
p. M, touching at way landings, and
reaching Portland at $50 p. m. On only
one occasion has she failed to return to
Portland In good season; then she was
delayed by the dense smoke and fog.
The Wide West, while making these
quick trips, has been great conyen-
ience to all persons travelling on bust.
ness or pleasure. Business men could
leave Portland in the morning, stay an
hour and a half in Astoria, and return
to Portland the same day. Visitors to
the sea coast could make tho trip be-
tween Portland and the different sea-
side resorts In from ten to twelve hours.
The travel to the coast this summer has
been az least three times greater than
ever before, principally on account OF
the improvement in the facilities of
reaching there. The regular boats r. Il.
Thompson and Mountain Queen will
continue to run as usual, one leaving
Portland and Astoria daily Except Sun-
days. at 8 a. M, and arriving at their
destination at about p. m. Passengers
returning from the coast after the Wide
West is withdrawn will have TO stop
over night at Astoria. So seon rs the
Northern Pacific branch to kalama ID in
operation, say within thirty days, all
| freight from Portland to Puget Sound
will 90 by rail, and this will relieve the
boats Of the freight traffic TO Kalama,
and the consequent annoying delays to
Astoria passengers. With this delay re-
moved, and few stops on tho lower
river. the regular boat ought to reach
Astoria net later than haif-past two
during the winter. In connection with
the Puget Sound trade il may be news
TO say that oar load lots from the East
TO Puget Sound viii 90 through without
breaking bulk, the cars being trans
ferred acrsss the Willamette here and
across the Columbia at Kalama. Ore
