Marine Notes.

The steam schooner Alice Blahch-
ard is afloat all safe without much
straining. Capt. Hollard, agent
for the Underwater, experimenting
the work.
She will make some repairs to
her machinery and proceed to San
Francisco in few days.
All Yaquina Bay requires now is
a dry dock and we would have the
best port on the coast. We will
recommend this as a port of refuge
for vessels in need of anything,
even several capable masters to
navigate them if such an article is
required.
We see by the Oregonian of the
goth, that the "old salts" on va.
quina Bay predicted that the Alice
Blanchard would never come of
the sand where SHE drifted with the
tide few days ago. Who ever
made that assertion never was pick
led very long or else the rainv
weather has soaked him fresh.
The vessel went on with the falling
tides and any person that knows
anything about the tides could plain
ly see that with the spring tides the
ship would come off herself if left
alone. Employ a marine reporter
Mr.. Scott, you live too far from
salt water or your reporter does not
know neap-tide from spring-tide
The Alice BLANCHARD never was
in a dangerous position while on
the sand in Yaquina Bay, when she
laid on the sand spit.
Capt. l., Z. Davis lands teams
and passengers through the summer
months at low tide from his side
wheel ferry boat and they don'tget
lnelr SnOeS SOlled.
1t seems that the Yaquina Bay
must have large number of enem.
les living near it. If a rancher
happens to run aground on the tide
land in the fog the entrance to the
harbor gets a black eye. Visit
some other ports on the globe then
you will say Yaquina Bay is far
above the ACREAGE.

immediate action toward the erection
Of 4 good and permanent TOWN

TRAIN wREcKIEG FRUSTRATED.

cEosstis4 the B. o. Track Between Oakland
and Mountain Lake.
An attempt was frustrated on We'd
nesday to wreck train No. AZ, the
through express on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, between Oakland and
Mountain Lake Park. Edward Miller
Of the Commercial Hotel, walked by
the railroad to Mountain Lake Park
and when short distance from Oak
land found a large pile Of crossties on
the track. He went to work to remove
the distractions and had just rolled
the last log off the track when the ex-
press passed by at the rate of forty
miles an hour. Mr.. Miller states lie
met several tramps between Oakland
and the distractions and supposes the
ties was placed by them. 1t was at
this point that an emigrant train was
wrecked several years ago BY Grim,
who is now serving term in the pen
itentiary for thelcrime.

TRAFFIC AT CHERRY RUN.

Cumberland Valley Traffic is Lsssened Since the
Opening 70 Cherry Run.
1t is said that traffic on the Climber
land Valley railroad has materially
lessened since the opening Of the Wes-
tern Maryland extension to Cherry
Run. A transfer Of 2.515 carloads Of
freight was made BY the B. 4 o. to the
Western Maryland at Cherry Run,
during February, being $50 car loads
more than were handled at that point
in Decemer, Eight locomotives are
required to do the work. The daily
average in February was 90 loads.

TRIM THE VINES.

A man experienced in grape culture
remarked a few days ago: "There
are more failures in grape raising
from insufficient pruning than any
other cause. Let vine make an ex.
eessive growth and il will not bear
fruit. This remark is worth consid-
ering. IN these DAYS everything,
grapeyines included, is forced forward
and they make an excessive growth if
not checked in some way.

During the last fiscal year The inn
ports Of silk manufactures amounted
in value to $31, 442, $50, upon which
1896, 637 was paid in duties. Under
the law, which imposes a duty Of so
per cent. on silks, the duties should
have amounted to s15,721 900, and no
more. But under the nagging and
oppressive methods of the Mckinley
administration Tariff act, in taxing
boxes, coverings and everything else
used in importing silks, the duties
have been swollen million and a
quarter dollars above the level. In
stead Of paying 30 per cent, the Am
erican consumers paid in 1892 nearly
81 per cent. on their importations Of
silks.
This Mckinley Administrative act is
fpll of insidious provisions for the OBJ
struction Of commerce. II was designed
to accomplish indirectly and furtively
what couldnot bedone openly. There is,
it is true, a Proteetionists notion,
with the educational campaign has
not yet exploded, that the. importers
and foreign producers pay the extor-
tionate duties on the packages and
covers in which goods are shipped.
Although importers are subject to
much persecution under the Mckinley
Administrative act, the American con-
sumers pay the last dollar Of the cost
upon the packages and coverings, with
something added for the outlay. This
extra cost goes into the price of every
pound Of sewing silk and every yard
Of silk goods that may be imported,
The repeal Of the Mckinley Admins
tratiye act, asAurged BY the New York
Chamber of Commerce, is one Of the
most important features Of Tariff Re-
form.

A square room must be made TO take

it will please anyone VINO has an eye
for the beautiful. No room can lay
any claim to beauty that is not broken
up into odd angles and corners, which
form an excellent foundation for dec
Grafton. Every article in room may
be all that a wealthy beauty lover
could desire, but if they are arranged
in prim and artistic fashion every arti-
Gle detracts from the other and lends
no note Of beauty to the whole. Look
well to the corners and the centre will
assume an artistic character that you
will not gain il. the sides Of the room

Fears are expressed that the Column
bian Exposition viii not be ready for
the formal ceremonies Of the opening
day on the LIST of May. Such has been
the case with all Worlds fairs. When
the day Of opening came some Of the
buildings were not completed, and
many exhibits were not arranged. But
such trifies have not made it necessary
to postpone the opening ceremonies.
In Chicago there has been sorne ex-
cuse for the failure to have the EXPOSE
ton all complete for disappointed day
Of opening. As the Exposition build
ings exceed in extent and magnifcence
everything that has yet been done on
either side Of the ocean in the way Of
Worlds Fairs, little delay in their
construction has been unavoidable. Yet
the early visitors in May will find
abundant objects of interest, even If a
pile Of shavings may be seen here and
there. In fact, the attractions in every
department viii be so great that the
most industrious visitors will hardly be
able to obtain more than a very super
fetal view Of them, unless they should
go early and stay late. To very many
Of the guests of Chicago, especially To
the numerous visitors from all parts Of
Europe, it will be a cause Of regret and
disappointment if the gates of the Elk
position should be closed on Sunday,
in obedience 10 the dictate of sabbath
Ran bigotry.

The Change of Inaugurating Day.

There are grave political reasons why
the new administration should enter upon
the discharge OF its functions soon after
the people has chosen it. These reasons
are potent against the further postpone
ment of inauguration day to the 30th of
April; but unless the present system is
to be radically changed for the purpose of
giving immediate effect to the decision OF
the people, there should be this postpone
ment. II the President is not to be inau-
gurated within a few weeks of his cleo
ton, a postponement of six months in
stead OF four does not matter much. 1t
would be better to save few lives and
much suffering, and the dangerous ex-
posture of the President himself, even if
the office-seekers are obliged to wait two
months for the qualification or disap-
pointment of their desires. If this is not
practicable or feasible, then Inauguration
should be simple oath-taking within
doors. Perhaps this would be best in
any event, for Washington pageantrv is
of the crudest. At present Inauguration
day is a day of barbarities.-Ha
