This is a wonderful country. How
does the following strike the stock grow,
ers Of Wyoming and Montana? The
butchers OF this place, and in fact Of the
entire Hills, are complaining because
the stock they use in their business is
too fat to make the best of beef. The
fact of the matter is stock on the ranges
lives so high and rich during our win
ters it does not have a chance to Get
poor, but is continually gaining in fat
The result is that instead Of losing fesi
in winter and gaining rapidly in sun,
mer, thus making juicy and tender beef
the slow and accommodating fatty sub
stance tends 10 tougher the muscula,
fibre, resulting in the beef becoming
close grained and tough. Who says the

winters are entirely too mild for good
stock raising.-SturgiS Advertiser.

The wreck of the alaskan calls to
mind among other things the almost
forgotten fact that just three years
ago her sister vessel, the steel side
wheel steamer, the Olympian, came
within an ace of meeting the same
dreadful fate. She left here, just as the
alaskan did, and on the same errand,
one bright morning in June, 1886, in
command of Capt. Jim Carroll, and
when down about where the alaskan
broke in two, was caught in terrible
weather. The humping of the sea
loosened her guards, and those on
board were getting a little shaky, when
the Oregon came along on her way
here from San Francisco. She stood
by for six hours, sent her carpenter
and corps of assistants aboard, and
lot of spikes, hammers and tools and
they worked like beavers, and in tell
ing of it Capt. Carroll says he drew
a long breath of relief when he got
inside the Heads and felt that the
danger was over. Vessels built like
the alaskan and Olympian have little
business along this northwest coast.

News From Some More of the Survivors.

PORTLAND, May 20.-Ed. Warde, oi
the ill-fated steamer Alaskan, arrived
in this city this morning at II o'clock
from Eugene City. He said: q
landed with the rest of my crowd at
Cape Perpetua, last Wednesday even
ing, at $50 o'clock. There were eleven
of us: myself, E. A. Carlson, NJ. Kel.
cher, Jas. McKintry, Mike McKin
Edward Sharples, Harry johnson, g.
w. Ross, Edward Wenzie, Ed. Burns,
and J. Murray"
The following telegram was re.
ceived from Mr.. W. M. Hoag, at Cor.
Wallis to G. J. Smith, at 10 o'clock
this morning:
"The following telegram has been
received from our agent at Yaquina
Bay: "A party came in from Alsea
bay last night and reported that one
of the boats from the il-fated steamer
alaskan came into Cape Perpetua
early yesterday morning with ten oi
the wrecked sailors. They report hav.
ing drifted near one of the life RATS
from the alaskan with two dead men
on her. The men are now at Alsea
and report no news of the other boat,
but give news to Capt. Winant, Of the
steamer Mischief, of their location and
direction when last seen, and the Mis-
chief at once put to sea to search fol-
the unfortunate men,
The sailors saved are in good con-
dition, and strong hopes are enter
tanned that Capt. Winant will pick up
the missing boat, which is supposed
to contain eighteen men,"
Ed Warde says he and his party es-
capped from the wreck in life boat No
g. They saw nothing of the life raft
containing the dead men as well as
those who were alive, so that it looks
as though the boat about which
Mr.. Hoag telegraphs as landing al
Cape Perpetua is not the one now
known to be safe and represented here
by VIM. Warde.
It is known from Mr.. Hoag's dis
patch that the boat of which he speaks
landed Sunday morning, whereas boat
No. 3 came in the Wednesday before
Warde says there was no dead IN
his boat, but all the eleven landed alive
though badly off Their clothing was
nearly all gone and few of them had
foot coverings It is thought highly
probable that the boat SAID, ~ contain,
eighteen men has landed at Cape Per
petua, and the men are now coming
into Yaquina. This is shown by
Warde's statement that he saw no life
raft.

The California Paper c o., yesterday
sold a carload of paper to The AsTo-
RIAN. The only interesting point to
this is that the paper will be made
in California from Clatsop county
trees, of which pulp is made at the
Young's river pulp factory. So that
Clatsop county residents will read the
news on material that not so long
ago was growing heavenward in the
shape of sundry stalwart trees near
Youngs river. The Historian mod
estly, but confidently looks forward
to the day when Astoria will be SO
large city that The Historian will
have paper mill of its own, when
the pulp from the mill here won't
have to be first shipped to San Fran
cisco and then back in the shape of
paper, but that we will be supplied
direct. The Historian will agree to
buy all its paper for cash from any
one starting such an enterprise, and
do all it can to influence others in
Oregon and Washington to do the
same.

The Historian is told that the head
of the o. r. & N Co. out here said
last Saturday that he realized the ne
cessity for good tug service on the
Columbia river bar, and that if the
Escort and the Donald, after she is
rebuilt, isn't enough, that new steel
tug, as powerful as any on the coast,
will be put on the bar towage service.
Such a tug would be a valuable and
necessary acquisition. The present
tug service is not considered adequate
to demands likely to arise at any time.
