The superiority of Pacific coast built
steamers over those built in the east
is being shown in the case of the
sister ships, the Corona and the PO-
mona. The former was built at Phil
adelphia, while the latter was built at
the Union IronWorks in SanFrancisco.
While they were both contracted for
at about the same time, the Pomona
was commissioned over six months be-
fore her rival reached there. On every
contest as to speed and capability the
Pomona has outstriped the Corona.
On trips lately made to San Pedro
and return the Corona consumed 139
tons of coal, while the Pomona only
used lO5 tons, saving of % tons, OF
1886, on the item of coal alone. Thus
is the superiority of Pacific coast work
demonstrated.

OF the Alaskan salmon catch a San
Francisco dispatch says: Latest ad-
vices from the Alaskan fishing grounds
are of the most unsatisfactory charac-
ter. The Alaska Commercial COM
pany have received letters from the
Karluk river under date of the 22nd
of June, in which it is stated that so
far the salmon catch has been exceed
ingly small. All of the canneries at
that point are running light, there be-
ing absolutely no run of fish. At the
Commercial company's cannery there
had been packed to date 8,135 cases,
as against 25,235 cases during the
same length of time last year. The
salmon run on Kodiak island is
wretched. Not a cannery has 5000
cases packed.

Hunter, of the steamer Oregon, was
found helpless in his stateroom, at
San Francisco. He had been i'll for

tai Hunter expired, Deceased is well
known to seafaring men on this coast.
About five years ago he was injured
by jam in the hold of the Oregon,

fected his lungs. 1t is probable that
tins accident hastened his death. De

Merchandising in the west, day pre-
sents some Of the features of early trade
and barter; in those days of circumlocu-
ton, money was a rarity among the
masses, produce was the established but
cumbersome currency, and in exchange,
convenience suggested that every mer-
chant carry the utmost diversity of
stock; seIe is now some classification,
then, pa; s and plows, drugs and dry
goods, liq.ors and notions, clothing and
stoves, crockery and hardware, groceries
and tools, had each their allotted location in
every store, and as transshipment only be-
longed to the summer months, with now
and then desultory and expensive impor-
tation from San Francisco, he would have
been deemed shrewd man indeed, who
could purchase so evenly as to close out
with even quite heavy shadow of equli-
brium as to supply; all kinds of odds and
ends would be left, staples would be ex-
hausted, luxuries were unknown; and for
some months every year, clerks had a
period of enforced leisure or a change of
base, if an employer narrowed his help to
the apparent necessities of the day.
Inc drug and liquor department of z. G.
MI grew out of this crude method; it was
not conven lent or profitable, neither did
an increasing population deem the com
pounding of medicines and the handling of
drugs compatible with eatables, and the
rush of an extensive and always hurried
business; hence this department became
entitled to premises of its own, where a
large and increasing trade under the man
agement of Mr.. R. Cleghorn has been de-
veloped; patent medicines, drugs, liquors
and kindred supplies, reaching an annual
total of sales amounting to s150,0O0.
