Growth OF the North West.

Oregon newspapers, reviewing the
events of the past year. show the cX-
istence OF remarkable degree OF pros
pcrity in that State. Ten years ago
the population of Portland was less
than $4,000. To-day it is nearly
three times that number. ard is con-
tinually increasing. During 1882
1000. 900 was spent upon new build
ings in that city, aud 100000 on its
streets. It, wholesale trade for the
wear amounted to $40, 100000, and
the exports to s23, l2S,9Sl.
Equally favorable reports come from
Washington Territory, whose vast
forests of valuable timl or furnish an
article of export that is wanted in all
parts of the world. Thirty years ago
PUGET Sounds first saw mill was built
To-day there are numerous towns In
which lumber saving is the main in
dustry. In 1881 Ia, 100000 cubic
feet of lumber was exported. The
amount sawed in 1882 is estimated at
over 800, 100000 feet. The mills are
nearly all lighted by electricity, and
are the scene of ceaseless labor
Various kindred forms Of industry
have arisen out of the abundance OF
timber, including coopcrage and ship
building.
Among recent settlers in this favor
ed region are some Of the Russian
Jewish immigrants, and reports re-
ceived from their settlements give good
ground for believing in successful
issue to their agricultural experiments.
Altogether, both Oregon and Wash
ington Territory seem to be thriving to
a much greater degree than California,
their southern neighbor, and are at
tracing comparatively larger share
of immigration.

Since it became evident some time
ago that the house neither could nor
would pass tariff bill all eyes have
been turned upon the senate 1t was
felt that no change III the tariff was
likely to take place at the present SEES
sion unless through the action of that
body. Two weeks since the senate
took up the bill which it had been de-
batting for months in the committee Of
the whole, and it was announced that
rapid work would he made with it.
The discussion III committee had been
very thorough, and in many respects a
more liberal bill had been secured than
was reported by the finance committee.
There was general impression that
the senate, yielding to the pronounced
and extensive public demand, was will
ing al least to make commencement
of substantial reform in the fiscal So
TEN which now weighs so heavily on
the industries and commerce of the
country. Bit when the bill came out
of the committee of the whole it was
taken in hand by another committee,
not known 10 the constitution or tie
laws, not appointed by the senate. not
responsible to the people, and yet more
influential than the peoples representa-
tives, more powerful, for the time be-
ing. than the people themselves. This
committee consisted of the lobby of the
favored manufacturers, and particular
" of the iron and steel interests. They
were not satisfied with the bill. They
gave orders that it should not be passed
unless it could he changed to suit
them. Under their direction senator's
from various parts of the Union resist
ed the bill, and proposed its moditica-
ton. and two weeks have been con-
sumed in satisfying the representatives

body of the people have waited. I'M

the continuance of their burdens for
