Victoria last week was the scene
Of a solemn editorial and legislative
discussion which was probably as lu-
1iorous an afair as mas happened FOR
some time. The Oregonidl, In MOTTO
ing the contract Of II. M. Mccartney
& Co., of this place, to furnish 1900
tons Of supplies for the Canadian Pa
cifc R. r by way Of the Columbia
river, calmly added the gratuitous
announcement that Portland would
furnish most Of the supplies. Next
comes the proprietor Of the new
town Of Farwell, at the west crossing
Of the Columbia, the spot where the
Spokane Falls supplies are to be de-
livered, and in an interview with the
COJonist, he proceeded to throw the
Oregonidn completely in the shade
by assuring the confding editor that
10, 900 tons Of Portland goods would
be delivered at h s town during the
year. The Victoria merchants i'm
mediately took up the matter and
expostulated against the ''attemPt
to divert the Legitimate trade Of the
city," and at last accounts the Par
lament was endavorlng to find some
means Of preventing the steamer
from landing.
Inquiry at Mr.. McCartney's Office
developed the fact that our former
articles showed the exact state Of the
case. As Mr.. Mccartney states tho
matter: at is all rot Of the most
magnificent dimensions. We simply
have a contract to supply the Cana
dian Pacific railroad camps with
about 1900 tons Of oats, hay, -four,
etc. Not a pound Of it comes from
Portland. It is all the product Of
the immediate region. Our prices
are not large enough to enable US to
take in articles from long distances,
and no one here or In Portland can
compete with Winnepeg or Victoria
for groceries or In fact anything ex-
eept the products Of the country be-
tween here and the river. The man
who Informed the COloniSt that lO,-
900 tons Of Portland goods would be
delivered at Farwen this year via
Spokane Falls, must have been suf-
fering from an overdose Of the most
sanguine species Of whisky: Port
land will not send a single ton in,
and with our little steamer we could
not carry that amount Of freight in
a year II we had IT,"
VIII the boat run after that con-
tact is flnishedP Itdepends wheth-
er any trade springs up. At present
there is not a human being living
between Little DalIes and Farwell.
But the mining region may develop
something.

ion Of the Hon. George Turner, judge
Of the fourth Judicial district Of this
territory, in the suit botweon the re-
eeiver Of the Spokane Fails and
Coeur d'Aleue Transportation com
pany and one Of the stockholders,
for the amount due on the receivers
assessment on the stock, this having
been made a test case. The caso was
argued on demurrer to the COM
plant, and the Judge rules In favor
Of the Transportation Co on the fol-
lowing points; First. that the re-
ceiver was legally appolnted and has
legal power 10 sue for such unpaid
assessments. Second. that the re-
ceiver can sue any stockholder with
out suing all Al once. And Judge
Turner concludes; ''There are bot
two questions left open 10 the stock

questions are; First, Is the person at

London's Lost Dogs.
fLondon letter.


The lost and starving dogs in London
are carefully collected and taken to a
"home, where. to the number sometimes
of 100 day, they are killed by process,
than which none could be more humane
After being given hearty meal they are
placed In cages. graded according to size
as nearly as possible, and with the vicious
dogs by themselves The cages are then
surrounded with an atmosphere charged
with chloroform and bisulphide of carbon
In from one to two minutes sleep falls
upon the animals, often stertorous, like
that of men in uneasy attitudes or when
dreaming. They begin breathing fainter
and fainter, and in six minutes are dead
Their bodies are then buried in heaps of
bog moss, so prepared that decomposition
is completely perfected within week
from interment.

The Nicaragua Treaty.

1t is reported that Senator Sherman in
opposing the ratification of the Nicaragua
treaty insisted that the Clayton-Bulwcr
treaty, made a generation ago, providing
for joint guaranty of any method of
crossing the sthmus by Great Britain and
the United States, and for the total abstl-
hence of both powers from setting foot in
Central America, is still in force and has
been virtually rc-aiIrmed ON the part OF
the United States in the diplomatic cor
rcspondenCe of the last three secretaries
with the British government. Without
opposing the Nicaragua Canal project he
urged that steps should be taken to secure
u formal abrOgatiun Of tine treaty, before
ratifying Il treaty like that with Nicara
qua and furthermore that the executive
department could not without the consent
OF the Senate effect the ahrOgatiDn of q
treaty. In opposition to his view it wa,
maintained that no joint guaranty wa,
ever negotiated over the Panama railroad
as was required by that treaty. and THAI
Great Britain has never withdrawn hci
colony from British Honduras, while tn,
Canal contemplated i'm the treaty was ucV
or constructed. our government tire,
years ago informed Great Britain that i
no longer regarded the treaty "a binding
this, it is asserted, being the proper wa,
to abolish treaty which contains II,
clause providing for sundcrluI its ohliga
tions. Great Britain suggested in rcpl,
that the United States call a convention q
maritime powers to arrange matters, t,
which President Arthur replied that tina
was just exactly what he did not propoN,
to do. Now, say he friends Of the Nicar
aqua treaty, Great Britain is moi going t,
oppose the purposes Of this country in
purely American question. She value,
our goodwill too highly. Those who mol,
these view, did not succeed in carrying
tine treaty through the Senate: but they
