The first of the Alaska Co.'S vessels
to leave San Francisco for Alaska
will carry surveying parties to locate
the frontier line between Alaska and
British Columbia. 1t has been pro-
posed to the British government that
a competent surveyor, representing
the Canadian government, be sent
with the surveying party to parti-
cipate in the location of the points of
the survey. The British government,
however, has done nothing in the
matter, and so the surveys will be
conducted by the Americans alone.
The whole survey will occupy three
years and cost about $4,000.

The London GTocerS Gazette OF
March 9th says of salmon: "The Nor

last ship from British Columbia to
London. The HoSpoddr, with q, 900
cases Of Alaska salmon, will not,
most likely, arrive here until quite
the end Of April or early il May. The
demand has been somewhat inter.
fered with by the cold weather, and
prices are perhaps a little easier

Last Thursday at San Francisco
wrecker Whitelaw succeeded in
raising the tug C. II. BeESha1O which
sunk Wednesday night. The cause
of the sinking was found to be an
open valve in the syphon. This valve
is generally left open when the
steamer is light, but through mad
vertance was left open when the tug
was being loaded, SO that when all
the coal was aboard water entered
through the valve and the steamer
sank. The whole expense to the com.
pany will be in the neighborhood OF
$500. Captain Hubbard, it is un.
derstood, will bring the Belshao0 uI
here.

The Colltmbio,S passengers were
justly indignant at their unneces-
sary detention in San Francisco.
When the Oregon had varioloid aboard
here she was only dentained seventy
hours after her arrival, and during
that time all requirements were OBJ
served, though had DR.. Estes seen
fit he could have compelled the
steamer to remain in quarantine
here as long as the San Francisco
health officer required the Columbia
to remain in quarantine there.

The Historian hereby takes back
any censure it may have uttered
against an organization of regulators
in Illinois and Indiana known as the
White Caps. That organization in
Springfield, Illinois has written to
the Salvation Army ordering
them to leave town, or take the con-
sequences, Good for them. Every
city in the country cursed by the
presence of these blasphemous fends
should tender vote Of thanks to the
White Caps Of Springfield. Ills.

and realize their profits. But British
Columbia is as scarce as ever and
strongly held. This quality is more
liked than the other, and seems to be
taking the place entirely of Colum bia
river salmon, and although the quail
ity of the latter is decidedly the best,
consumers seem fully satisfied with
British Columbia. We cannot, how
ever, say the same for Alaska, but at
the existing difference in price, buy
ers are ready to take it for ordinary
quality.

SIR:-Your committee beg leave to sub

That whereas in His wisdom it has

with one whose faithful stewardship as
director of this district, beginning with
its organization April 1st, 1869, and con-
tinuing up to the day of his death, with
the single exception of but one term of
three years, is part of its written his
tory; therefore be it
Resolved. That in the death of Chris
tian Leinenweber the legal voters of this
district recognize and deeply deplore the
fact that they have met with the loss of
a faithful friend and adviser, and the
community an upright, honorable and
enterprising citizen.
That we hereby beg to tender the
heartfelt sympathies of the legal voters
of this district, to the bereaved family of
the deceased.
That copy of these resolutions, suit
ably engrossed, be respectfully presented

The repeal of the pre-emption law,
says the Portland World, is causing
q rush to the land Office by persons
desiring to take advantage of the old
law before the new comes into effect
The old law iallows thirty-three
months in which to prove up, and re-
quires continuous residence OF slx
months. But this has been repealed
none made to take its place. The
timber land law still remains, and 9
glance at our country exchanges will
show that thousands of timber claims
are filed upon every month. To show
that our land is being taken up, We
will just state that in twelve months
over 5000 claims have been taken IN
Oregon, in the counties west and
northwest of Multnomah county.
This, of course does not include
school or railroad lands. Now is the
time to get hold of government land,
and our people see it, and are govern
ing themselves accordingly. Oregon
is the place for a poor man, as 1t
furnishes lands for the landless, and
homes for the homeless.

Says Mist correspondent of the
Mist: 1t looks as if the Astoria &
South Coast railroad, which is to
cross this valley at tide water, is 60
ing to start a boom here. 1t is re-
ported that about fifty pre-emption
and homestead claims have been
taken here within the last month,
and that the scheme is to drive the
logs to tide water. The Nehalen
river is said to be one of the best
streams on the coast for that purpose.
According to that way of doing bus
mess Columbia county will produce
the raw material, and Clatsop county
will get the benefit of the manufac-
turing, and also the taxes from the
mills and lumber. The mill sites have
already been purchased near Neha-
lem bay, and the thing is bound to
go, and we have been invited to put
in our logs as soon as the railroad
gets there and they will haul them
over to Astoria for the present. Then
Columbia county will be like the COW
that was in litigation, we will get
horns and tail, and Astoria will get
the balance of the carcass. A mar
row gauge railroad from the North
ern Pacific into this region would
settle the whole question in favor of
this county. But what is the use to
talk, we have heard of the changes
sung on railroads until we are heart
ly sick of it. Three different gangs
of surveyors have snaked a chain
throught this valley from Forest
Grove to Astoria, and we feel like
kicking the next that comes along,
that don't mean business.
