Durie came up with proposition
relating to the tide lands this morning.
II related 70 the fabulous grant OF the
whole Of Elliott bay once vested in the
Seattle 4 WalIA Walla Railway 4
Transportation Company By the Terri
torial legislature. Il is: mo part oi
this constitution shall be so con.
strued as to validate certain oct oi
the legislature Of Washington terri.
tory Of the session Of lS73. entitled an
act to confirm the grant Of certain
lands by the city Of Seattle 10 the Sc
attic 4 WAlia Walla railway"
The act referred TO grants 70 the
Seattle 4 Walla Walia Railway q
Transportation Company all tide lands
In, Under. around and about Elliot
bay and in King county, south of
King street, Ia seattle. thus ratifying
the deed 70 such lands given by the
city OF Seattle 10 the company on Aug.
ust 10. 1878. The deed, by the terms
of the act, Is deemed 70 vest title in
the railway company In Zee simple
and in every way to act - estoppei in
law and equity. The territory ex-
pressly relinquish~s all right to title
and interest in the lands 10 he vested
In il when il shall become q state. A
provision Is added that the grant Is
given upon the express condition that
the first section OF fifteen miles shall
be constructed within three years
from the passage of the act; provided
else, that release and grant shall have
no validity until said railway shall
have commenced the railroad to Walls
Walla via SnOqualmie pass.
The Seattle & Waiia Walla railway
filled part Of its contract by building
narrow gauge line from Seattle t0
Newcastle. about nineteen miles, but
il never got TO WaIla Walla or any
where near there. Then the old COM
pany sold out to the Columbia i
Puget Sound Company which likewise
carried out fully the plans OF the old
Seattle 4 Waiia Walla road. and did
not complete the road. No one now
seriously claims that the title
OF the Seattle Il Walia Waila
Company. and subsequently Of the
Columbia 4 Puget Sound Company
is worth the paper il is written on and
the purport Of Duries proposition Is
plainly to remove any shadow OF legal
or equitable rixht that may be claimed
by virtue Of the ancient grant. That
il will be adopted, either as resoin-
ton or as q clause in the constitution,
cannot I've doubted.

The case of William A. Davis col
ored mn now serving q sentesce of ons
year in New Castle jail for gambling, ia
one that certainly calls for executive
mercy. This man was for many years 5
porter with james Murphy ut tbs Della
ware House aud Rirkwood Hotel, and a. :
ways y owed honest anu trustworthy IN
every respect. After Mr.. Murphy .
death, Mrs. Murphy advanced h,m sum
Gent funds to start segar store, but
through the Vaccinations OF others no
was led into gsmbling.
When he was afraigned before the
Court he plead guilty, and was sentenced
to pay tiue Of S3U0, or In default be I'M
prisoned one year. As he was unable TO
pay the dne he was sent 10 ] ali, " here he
has served over half the time Tor which
he was sentenced. He Is now sick with
consumption, and DIR. Back says that II
he Is K, pt iu jail he caneot live through
the winter. II therefore seems that 1t
would be an act Of mercy to pardon this
man 60 that If he must die, he could
spend hts last hours among his friends.
