FEARS FOR THE POLICE PENSION FUND.

The Police Commissioners have submitted to the
Mayor their report of the operations of the force Tor
the quarter ending September 80. The entire force
numbers 2.7l6. The number Of persons arrested
WAS / : 1876 Lodgings were furnished 10 J,3Go men
and .Oj4 women, a total of l9,4l4. There were
] 23S lost children recovered The police pension
fund is not in good condition. The capital OF the
fund on January l, 1858, was S27O,7Gs Is. Up To
October l, 1883, the receipts from various sources
were $SO,s3Q 81. The expenditures, including
over 81, 900 for judgments recovered by police
men on account of deductions made for loss of time,
were nearly $4,000. This rendered necessary the
sale of 500 900 bonds part of the capital of tho
fund. There remains now only $1,000 - as the
capital of the fund compared with $27O,7G -
at the beginning Of the year. The commissioners
say that unless there is speedy legislation with
view to Tepcnishing and preserving the pension
fund its extinction must result. The pensions paid
for the quarter ending September 30 amounted 10
1887 20. Assuming that the average quarterly
payments of pensions will be about the same and
that the receipts will continue in the ratio the
pension fund will be exhausted in less than
eighteen months from October |. There are 225
men, 90 widows, and 22 orphans on the roll. The
Board of Police request the earnest cooperation of
the Mayor and other authorities in order that
proper measures may be taken without delay TO re
plcni,h and preserve the fund and protect It's de-

VOLUME 8. VANCOUVER, WASHINGTON TERRITORY, THU


1t will be remembered that the Yak
ina Signal some time since, says that
paper, contained an allusion to the
mysterious disappearance of a man
named Frasier, who was member of
what is known as the California col
ony in the Big Bend country, a vast
and partially settled region lying
northeast of White Bluffs, on the Co.
lumbia. Frasier had been out on the
range looking for lost horses, and
when last seen was thought to be on
his way to the settlement which is To-
Gated in the vicinity of the Grand
Coulee. A search was instituted for
the missing man and continued
throughout the entire month of Sep
tember. One of his pack horses was
found, and this and other traces indi-
Gated foul play. The investigation
was followed up with such vigor and
determination that a certain Indian
living up in that country. who knew
of the fate of the lost man, concluded
it might be safer to divulge the secret.
He accordingly went to the stockmen
and others who had been making in
quiry into the mystery, and told that
the missing man had been murdered
and thrown into Moses lake. To con-
firm the report he took the party to
the lake and showed them the body
of the unfortunate man, who was
found to have been shot and robbed
as reported The Indian volunteered
to go and point out the Indian who
perpetrated the ghastly deed. The
murderer was readily reached, and on
being pointed ont zwas found to be
riding one of the murdered mans
horses. The party then dismissed the
guide add hung the murderer on the
spot.
II may be here mentioned that this
last proceeding is notaltogether novel
up in that country, this being the
fifth man who has been dealt with in
q similar manner within n short time
past. Three of the men who for evil
deeds who have thus been "put out of
the way" as they term it, were white
men, one was hali-breed, and the
last was the Indian above referred to.
In should not be Inferred from these
occurrences, however, that the Big
Bend country is infested with despe-
radoes. On the contrary, ii Is the
abode of many excellent men; but
they have tremendous prejudice
against horse thieves, and declare
that they will not permit it in the flu
ture.

cent reduction of one cent per pound
In the price OF Pacific coast Goldfish.
The increase in the seasons catch,
which amounted to 1875, 900 fish taken
by sixteen vessels, with ene cargo still
to come in, against !, ,2s6,000 taken by
fourteen vessels last year, together
with the fact Of an increase in the inn
portation Of Eastern Goldfish, has
caused the present reduction. 1t is
stated that values may go still lower
before the first of the new year, as
there are several outside cargoes still

The migration movement from Ger
many to the United States has become
30 great that the German government
has taken official action to stop it.
Orders have been issued forbidding
the distribution of pamphlets setting
forth the advantages offered by the
United States for settlement. These
pamphlets, etc., are excluded from
the mails and destroyed wherever
found. II the German government
designs to check the flow of immigra
tion to this country, they will have
to adopt some more vigorous meas
ures. The German people may quiz
city submit to having the American
hog stopped from going to their
shores, but the German government
in its attempt to check the flow of inn
migration to the United States will
find larger contract on its hands
than 1t has bargained for. We invite
to our shores the honest men of toll
Of every nation, kindred and tongue.
We have homes for them all and to
spare.

Jesse d. Carr, well known over Ore
gon, owns a great deal of land near
Monterey, Cal. He and his partner,
Haggin, have raised in Kern county
100 bales of as good cotton as ever was
grown in louisiana. They planted 100
acres in cotton, and have gathered
500 pounds per acre, which sold for IL
cents per pound. Cinnamon are en-
pIoyed to do the picking. While it is
demonrtrated that cotton can be
raised in California, it is also certain
that with the present high rate of la
Dor it cannot be made profitable.
Messrs. Haggin & Carr have sent to
Sweden for 100 good hands. These
gentlemen also intend to experiment
thoroughly the adaptation of Califor-
mia for raising sugar cane during the
coming year. Mr.. Carr has also done
much towards the introduction of fine
stock of all kinds. He had thousands
of acres in Lake Co., Or, on which he
had cattle and sheep, but one cold
winter swept them away by thous-
ands. Mr.. Carr is man eff great
force of character-a liberal and pub
lie spirited man as well as q chival-
rous gentleman, and has earned mer-
tied success.

For Constipation, or Costiveness, no
remedy is SO effective as AYERS PILLS.
They insure regular daily action, and re-
store the bowels to healthy condition.
For Indigestion, or Dyspepsia, AYER's
PILLS are invaluable, and a sure cure.
Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, Foul
Stomach, Flatulency, Dizziness, Head
ache, Numbness, Nausea, are all relieved
and cured by AYERS PILLS.
In Liver Complaint, Bilious Disorders.
and Jaundice, AyER's PILLS should b
given in doses large enough to excite the
liver and bowels, and remove constipation.
AS a cleansing medicine in the Spring, these
PILLS are unequalled.
Worms, caused by a morbid condition OF
the bowels, are expelled by these PILLS.
Eruptions, skin Diseases, and Piles>
the result of Indigestion or Constipation, are
cured by the use of AYERS PILLS.
For Colds, take AYERS Pulls to opcn
the pores, remove infammatory secretions,
and allay the fever.
For Diarrhea and Dysentery, caused By
sudden colds, indigestible food, ETC., Ayers
PILLS are the true remedy.
Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, and
sciatics, often result from digestive derange-
ment, or colds, and disappear ON removing
the cause by the use OF AYERS PILLS.
Tumors, Dropsy, Kidney Complaints,
ard other disorders caused by debility or
obstruction are cured by AYERS Pills.
