have said 5S,Oool, and in the other sil ,000l
altogether the surplus for the year is put down
at 457. OOO', which, provided India is happily
exempted from war and from famine, may prove
perfectly adequate.
But although war and famine are the dis
tnrbinC influences which Indian financors have
constantly to fear, there arc two others which
must always lie reckoned upon-one the IN
certainty Of the opium revenue, and the other
the changing and usually adverse value Of
silver in the worlds markets. China is i'm

Atitv her production Of the vicious drug, and

As 10 the depreciation Of silver-it is prob

To guard against any injustice TO these

hos added an amendment, providing that
a two-thirds vote Of all the stockholders
Of the road shall be necessary to ratify
any agreement for consolidation, and il
provides also that If any of the minority
are dissatisfied, they shall be paid the
cash value of their stock in settlement Of
their claims. Thus, it is believed, the

Pension Claims.

The commissioner of pensions has
disappointed all the claim agents at
Washington by announcing that the
increase allowed by the new law to
one-armed and one-legged soldiers is
part of the original case, and that the
intervention of a claim agent or at
torney will not be recognized as Civ
ing such person the right to charge an
additional fee. The commissioners
view is that the increase can only be
granted on information as to disabil-
ity already on file, and proved to the
satisfaction of his office, otherwise the
pensiOner could not be entitled to the
original pension, upon which the in
crease is demanded. All that tho
claimant will have tn do is to fill out
a blank, which will be furnished upon
application to he commissioner,
which is designed to establish the
identity of the claimant. The COM
missioner says there is no occasion for
delay, and he hopes to have the
changes by the new law made up very
soon. The commissioners interven-
tion on behalf of the pensioners will
no doubt save many of them, but the
claim agents will levy the assessments
upon thousands of them who live in
remote places, or who do not learn
from the newspapers the simple and
inexpensive method by which the ad
ditional pension may be obtained.
The pension claim agents have al
ready prepared thousands of circulars
to be distributed to pensioners, in
forming them that the new increase
of pensions had become law, and
upon remitting SO upon each claim
the increase would be collected. The
public generally should see to it that
pensioners are properly informed Of
the matter, and saved from the sharks

In nothing is the rapid growth of
the Pacific northwest more strikingly
shown than in the increase of the
coast steamship service. Though the
old and small steamers of earlier DAYS
have been replaced by new and fast
ones of large carrying capacity, and
though we now have from San Fran
cisco to Portland two of these large
and fast steamships every week, with
othe of great size and power coming
at frequent intervals and carrying
freight alone), instead ofa single small
and slow steamer about once in ten
days as formerly, yet passengers and
freight owing to pressure of both
have recently been declined by the
steamers several days in advance of
the time of sailing. Another steamer
il to be put on as soon as possible. Civ
| ing one every three days from San
Francisco, and it is probable that a
steamer could be filled every two days
for many weeks, and indeed for some
months to come.
This to Portland alone. To Puget
Sound the increase has been quite as
remarkable. 1t is only a compara
| lively short time since the steamers
began to run regularly from San Fran
cisco to the sound. During the gold
excitement in British Columbia above
twenty years ago, there was, indeed,
great rush from San Francisco, and
steamers ran regularly for a time,
| though not at short intervals, but they
| had very little business for the sound
country. After the decline of the
Fraser river excitement steamship
| communication with the north almost
wholly closed for u long time. But
now the steamers from san Francisco
for British Columbia and Puget Sound,
making regular and frequent trips, are
as full as to Portland; so much so that
the Dakota, on her latest departure,
was obliged to leave no less than 400
tons of freight on her dock at San
| Francisco.
Ten years ago the entire trade of
this northwest coast was performed
by four slow and small steamships,
namely, the Prince. Alfred, running
occasionally on the Victoria route,
and the Oriiiamme, John l.. stephens
and Ajax, running to Portland. Now
the four passenger ships on the Port
land route aggregate 10000 tons, the
Dakota and Elder on the sound route,
300 tons, and the four steam colliers
on the two routes make up $500 tons
more, giving total of -, POO tons, out
side of the four British bottoms ply
ing to Nanaimo. This is growth of
400 per cent. in the short spaces of ten
years. Can any other part of the Pa
citic coast show as much solid growth
and development for the same period.

The supply of Beef.

Beef. once the most abundant, is
now becoming the scarcest of our ne
cessary commodities. There is no
probability that we shall ever again
have as cheap beef as in the years gone
by, and very probably it will never be
much cheaper than it is now. On the
one hand the natural grass ranges are
being rapidly narrowed, and on the
other the consumption of beefis greatly
increasing. Growing scarcity is the
consequence. Upon butchers blocks
in this city is beef brought hither
from San Francisco, which it is pos
sble to spare from that city because
its market is the center of larger and
surer supply than any other point on
the coast. And yet, the facilities for
producing beef in this section are far
superior to those of the localities from
which San Francisco draws her sup
ply. Two things are just now in our
way. The first is found in the fact
that we are by no means making the
most of our advantages for production
of beef cattle; the second, that the
greatly increased demand which has
sprung up within year past, was not
anticipated, and therefore no adequate
DlNDdI va w lDttl II.
Cattle had been driven out of the
country in great numbers, our cattle
men expecting no such demand at
home as now exists. But the natural
grass ranges cannot longer be de-
pended on for our entire supply. High
prices will very soon induce farmers
west of the Cascade mountains to turn
their attention to production of beef
cattle for home market. 1t will be
discovered that there j. money ia feed
ing cattle in country which pro-
duces sure crops ofgrasses and cereals,
for which otherwise there is not al
ways a profitable market; and besides,
stall-fed beef will always bring top
prices. Every farmer may easily
have few fat cattle for the market;
and with this experience it cannot he
doubted that the farmer will find one
of his best and surest sources of profit
in this branch of business.-P0rttdnd

The Missouri legislature has been
considering "a proposition TO submit to
the people of the state a prohibition
amendment. On March sth it came
to a vote in the house and was de-
feated. The next day the st. Louis
Republican urged the adoptisn of high
license rs the proper method of deal
ing with the subject, saying: "Where
this high license system has been
adopted il has met with success, as
the best mode of raising revenue from
the liquor traffic and of securing a bet
ter class of men in the business, and
more orderly houses. 1t is certainly
the most legitimate way of raising
revenue; it is tax upon luxuries;
the man who drinks the liquor pays
the tax after all, and he ought to pay
1t, because 1t is not a necessity-he
can do without il; but II he wants IL
let him pay for 1t, and the community
is benefited by the high tax."

topics discussed was the high license
law of that state. In response to the
inquiry as to how the law operated in
practice, the reply came in this wise:
"FIrst-rate. All parties seem to be
satisfied. The ultra prohibitionists
have accepted the system as being
even preferable to prohibitory law,
taking Kansas as an example. AS an

Council Chatter.

1t is expected that tonight's meeting of
the city council will be a lively oae, as
several important questions will be agi
tated. We understand that the street and
alley committee, to whom was referred
the petition of the Moline 81 Rock Island
Street railway to build branch track TO
Augustana college. will report adversely,
and that vote on the subject will be
taken By the council The question of a
new street railway on Seventh avenue
viii also come up for discussion. The
committee will also report adversely in
regard to renting the levee to the Coal
Valley Mining company, for the same rate
that is given the steamboats,. The five
year lease held by the company at the
rate of 800 per anum has expired, and
The steamboat rate is much less.

will be name A wrong impression pre-
walls that the rates have been increased by

they have been assessed too high, taking
