Residence Burned at scio.

Late last night information was
received in this city that the fine
residence of DIR. j. l.. Martin at Scio
was burned to the ground the night
previous. The origin of the fire is
not known. 1t broke out shortly
before midnight, and burned so rap
idly that little of the contents were
saved. There had not been any fire
in the stove during the evening,
which makes the cause of the fire
unexplainable. The building was
the finest residence in Scio, and the
loss will probably reach 5000. AS
near as could be ascertained there
was no insurance.-Albany Herald.

THE OREGON PACIFIC.
1t is to Take Another Spurt Towards
COmpletiOn.-Hunting the
G. & NV,

The following article appears in
an Albany paper--"There is some
thing in the horizon of Oregon Pa
citic affairs that portends an active
movement for the better for that
railroad. Recent dispatches state
that the late presence in San Fran
cisco of a party of Chicago & North
western officials and Chicago capit-
aGsts has caused much talk in rail-
road circles. The party arrived there
on Monday of last week, in the di-
rectors' car of the Northwestern,
and after staying only a day came
north, first to Woodland, then to
Red Bluff, then to Maryville, and
now, it is understood they are some
where in Oregon. NJ. NJ. Kirkman,
comptroller of the Northwestern, is
in charge of the party. With him,
among Others, are V. w. Foster,
William Blanchard, NJ. w. Kirk,
w. 7. Kirk, John b. Kirk and A.
McNally. All hail from Chicago.
1t is stated that the party will come
north to Albany, and thence travel
over the proposed route of the Ore
gon Pacific, in which company GER
tain directors of the Northwestern
are interested. This visit is under
stood to mean that the Northwest
ern otficialsare going to take hold of
the work of construction ON the Ore
gon Pacific, and join it to their pro-
posed transcontinentalr route at Boise
City, Idaho"
This would seem to be conclusive
evidence that the above road means
to go forward, and at once. \ di-
rector of the road sayswork will be
resumed Immediately, and pushed as
rapidly as possible. 1t is intended
to reach the inland empire as soon
as possible.

National Guard Convention Proceedings.


There is just being issued from the
Office ofState Printer Baker, the pro-
ceedings of the Officers Convention
of the Oregon National Guard Asso-
citation, held in Portland, April 12
and lS, last. The report was ordered
printed by the State Military Board
at its last meeting, and makes book
ot52pages. Itis gotten out in handy
form, and the printing is very well
done. 1t is pity the same cannot
be said ofthe compiling. The writer
haseXamined the book critically, and
he must say that the errors contained
therein, and the carelessness dis
played in the compilation of the re-
port are simply deplorable.
The compiler has taken his tran
script ofthe proceedings from a news
paper report gotten out by man
whose business does not require that
he knows exact military courtesy,
and who, of course, has not shown it
at all times, instead of from the min
utes which the Secretary was sup
posed to keep of the meeting. The
entire report is full of themost glaring
bulls, omissions, etc, and is simply
a poor newspaper report ofwhat was
really Il courteous business meeting.
An appendix is added which gives n
great many valuable decisions in
points of tactics, and which will
prove of much value to the National
Guard. These decisions were COM
piled by II. T. Neatmau, first lieu
tenant, and adiutant, l4th Infantry,
L. 5. A., Vancouver Barracks, w. II.
For the favor shown 10y Lieut.. Neat-
man in allowing this compilation to
be published, National Guardsmcn
will certainly feel grateful.
The report gives several items of
interest, and contains the eloquent
addresses delivered by Col Thos. n.
Anderson, l4th nifty, L, :. A., and
Major VIM. J. Nolllman, Assistant
Adjutant General, attached to the
staff of Brig. Gen. John Gibbon,
