Grand jury comes in, presents fol-
lowing report and are discharged;
In the circuit court of the state of
Oregon, for the county of Clatsop.
To Hon. r. J. Taylor, .judge Of said
court:
The undersigned, your grand jury,
submit the following report:
We have Investigated all charges
brought before us, and disposed OF the
cases in such manner as seemed to lis
warranted by the evidence.
We visited the county jail, and find
that it is properly and efficiently
managed, but badly out OF re-
pair and we recommend new flooring
and thorough and extensive repairs.
We also find that there is no cell suit
able for the temporary confinement
of insane persons, and we recommend
that such a cell be fitted up imme-
diately.
The city jail we also find properly
kept, but recommend that it be so
altered and repaired as to afford bet
ter light to the inmates, as at present
it is so dark as to necessitate the burn
lug of gas during the hours of day
light.
The court house, which was built
thirty OF forty years ago has about
outlived its usefulness, and is dis
grace to the great and growing coun-
ty of Clatsop, and We recommend that
the county take immediate steps to
secure a suitable site for a new court
house, and that it shall, as soon as
practicable, build a court house ade-
quate to the increased and constantly
increasing business of the county.
We did not think it necessary OF
practicable to attempt a minute ex-
animation of the books and accounts
of the various county officers. We
heard no complaints against any of
them, and SO far as we have been able
to observe they are properly and eff
GENTLY performing their business
| duties.
We recommend that a safe be pur-
chased for the use of the sheriff, and
We further recomend that the county
provide for said Office permanent
books, and ledgers. Those now kept
are furnished by the sheriffs them
selves, and are private property, which
each outgoing sheriff takes away with
him, at the end of his term.
We visited st. Mary's hospital
which is the county hospital, and
found it excellently managed, and il
every way worthy of commendatiOn
1t is neat, clean and comfortable, anC
situated in a healthful locality, and
the patients kindly waited upon and
cared for.
And having now completed OuI
labors we ask to be discharged.
A. V. ALLEN,
Foreman.

The steamship Geo. W.. Elder ar
rived at Victoria last Sunday night
from Alaska. Her cargo consists of
10000 cases and 1900 barrels of sal
mon for San Francisco, besides 100
tons of ore from the Sheep creek mine
and a large quantity from Fort
Wrangle. On the down trip the Elder
did not call at Loring, the scene of
the AncOR disaster, but it is under
derstOOd the steamer AK had ar
rived at the scene of the wreck and
succeeded in removing the cargo
safely. The hull of the AncOn, after
the cargo and machinery are removed,
was to be burned to prevent her be-
coming an obstruction to navigation.
At Glacier bay the ice was found SO
thick and further out from the shore
than ever before known as to impede
navigation. The Elder ran into the
bay about twenty-three miles and
there stuck fast and drifted with the
ice for three hours before getting
clear Ice foes were encountered
sixty miles from shore.

They do some funny things over in
Tacoma. What would Astorians

that's the Tacoma style of running a

pie are lavish with appropriations for
the fire department, but the matter is

The forty-one negroes that went up
to Kodiak on the Haytief1 Republic
to take the place of strikers, according
to report, proved to be little good in
the practical sense. They were not
fishermen, and had never before had
any experience in handling salmon.
OF the number that went up thirty
one went back to San Francisco on
the Republic. The other ten remain
on Kodiak island until next year.

ROBERT G. INGERSOLL.
The Greatest Orator Of the Age,

Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll of New
York, has accepted the invitation Of
the State ofNew York to deliver an
GRAFTON upon the life and work of
Roscoe Conkling at the Capitol in
in Albany. The invitation was ten
dered by a, joint committee of the
Legislature.
When, during the Presidential cam
paign of 1880, Henry Ward Beecher
introduced Mr.. Ingersoll as 'the
greatest orator OF the age,' though
he said what may be open to dispute,
he gave prominence at an appropri-
ate time to Colonel Ingersoll's
strongest qualification. This genial
man of the world is a born public
speaker as certainly as nature set up
William Shakespeare for a poet. His
thoughts naturally shape themselves
into expressions, apt, brilliant, often
witty and always impressive. He
uses his pen with the force which
draws upon him a reply from no less
a man than Mr.. Gladstone. His at
tack on Christianity by tongue and
article are examples of extraordina-
ry literary brilliancy, whatever may
be thought of their logic.
Ingersoll is by profession a law
yer. He builtup large and lucra-
tive practice inIllinois, made himself
a national reputation as a lawyer
and orator, and then settled in New
York, where his counsel and services
in the court room are much sought
by clients who can afford such luxu>
| ries. Mr.. Ingersoll is rich.
