About Our Pilots Grievance.

"
The New York Maritime Register says
1.-THE national government is improving
the entrance to the Columbia river, and
the trade of Portland and other places
on the river is growing. but unless there
is marked improvement in the pilot
service all these will suffer. Before the
Puget Sound ports came to the front,
Portland held easily very important
position in Pacific coast commerce, but
the rivalry Of the more northern ports
has made the work of progress far more
difficult. 1t is as hard to hold as to build
up trade. No port in these times can be
too watchful Of its own interests, too
Jealous of Its rivals, and too earnest in
preventing any injury to It's advantages.
The profits of navigation are not at this
time at all in keeping with its risks
Anything, therefore, so dangerous as bad
pilotage service must initiate most
strongly against a port. Any delay In
securing improvements only intensifies an
evil and makes the process of recovery
all the slower. Portland and Astoria
cannot afford to have the charge of bad
service remain. and 1t is In their own in
terests to make the most vigorous efforts
to remove oil reason for complaints"

Trouble with the Pines.

Water Superintendent Smith is having
considerable trouble with mains leadinl

water and pressure, but on Court street
near the shool house water barely bub-
bles. while on other mains at higher al
titude there is an abundant flow. There
is evidently leak in the vicinity men.
toned, but owing to the large amount Of
running, caused by melting snow and
rain, It is difficult to determine it's exact
locality. He has large force of men at
work excavatiDg pipes, and 1t is expected
the trouble will be remedied today.

A Serions Shooting Scrane.

serious shooting scrape occurred a
the old Lucky Queen Mine" on Jump OF
Joe near Grants Pass last Friday morn
ing James Moore, formerly well known
in Roseburg. having spent last winter
here, located claim there in 1891, but
afterwards abandoned it, and an old man
named Slower and his boys Jim and
Charles jumped it and proceeded to work
1T, striking, it is alleged, paying lead.
Moore couple of weeks since returned
to the vicinity with party from Grants S
Pass to recover the ledge and there was
trouble at once. The Grants Pass OBJ
server tells the rest Of the story as
follows:
EARLY Friday morning before Moore's
men had arisen, old man Slower, James
Stover and Charles Slower moved on the
mine and attempted to remove the ore.
Seely heard them, stopped and requested
them not to touch the ore until Moore
returned, and told Slower he would not
allow it. The old man then advanced
toward Seely who requested him to stop
and levelled a shot gun at him. The old
man kept on and Seely fired, a charge OF
number six shot taking effect in his head.
Charles Slower Immediately shot Seely
with buckshots taking effect in his abdo-
men, wounding him, 1t is feared fatally"
The Observer seems to blame the Slower
crowd, but several parties from the Pass
have told the Review reporter different
story. They seem to think that Moore
had lost all right to the mine and went
out from town with the determination
TO take 1t by force.-Roseburg Review.

What the Herald Thinks.


The Chicago Herald is on the right side
of the Hawaiian annexation question,
It's issue of Wednesday last says:
What these planters now want is t.
regain under some new arrangement
what they have lost by the abolition Of
our duties on raw sugar. They cannot
do this by overturning the monarchy and
setting up republic or any other form
of Independent government nor yet by
securing an American protectorate.
Since they have lost, the benefit OF our
tariff they want to get the benefit of our
bounty. and that they can get only by
making the islands part Of the United
States. This explains why commissioners
were dispatched in hot haste to Washing
ton. 1t explains why they will talk OF
nothing less than annexation. II the
islands are annexed either as a state or
territory Hawaiian cane growersG will
be as much entitled to the bounty OF two
cents per pound as the Louisiana cane
growers. They will not be entitled to 1t
otherwise. For some thirteen years our
enterprising American citizens in the Is
lands were amassing great fortunes out
of the earnings Of American consumers
of sugar. Now they wish to add TO their
fortunes out Of the earnings of American
taxpayers, who furnish the money out Of
which the sugar bounty is paid. That is
why nothing short Of annexation will sat
isfy these gentlemen.
1.-THE stake, as above figures show, is a
pretty large one. 1t is large enough to
warrant the gentlemen interested in tax.
ing considerable risks. 1t is large enough
to warrant them in making great efforts
to work up en- annexation craze in the
United Safes. and we may be sure that
they will improve their opportunities to
the utmost. No doubt they will foot the
bills If the American people will kindly
attend mass meetings and supply the
enthusiasm. But sober-minded citizens
will first enquire whether 1t will pay to
contribute some s6,OOO,O0O year for the
enrichment of few speculators, to say
nothing of a greater number of millions
which 1t would cost them in other ways,
and get nothing In return but trouble
some little insular pocket possession over
1900 miles distant from San Francisco.
The people OF the Pacific slope have
special reasons for declining to promote
this new speculation of Claus Spreclles
and his associates and coadjutors.'

Prof. Wright, of the High school, some

such signal success that an organiza-

conducted as in legislative bodies. Last
Friday the question considered was

The Ice crop.

One thousand tons of ice were put up
by Messrs Winans Brothers, at Hood
river Monday, says the Marion County
Democrat. If the cold weather continues
a few days they expect to house at least
1900 tons, as they have one of the fin
est plants for ice harvesting In the United
States Tuesday they had 20 men in
the field of ice on the river. Along to-
wards evening the ice became so weak
that it was dangerous and five men got
into the river One of them was unable
to swim and had close call for his life.

broke out in the Ainsworth school build
ing on Portland Heights. The building
was total loss. No fire engines could
reach the scene, and only one hydrant
could be used. The fire originated in the
basement, pfesumably from the furnace.
No children were in the building at, the
time. The building was comparatively
new one, and was entirely consumed by
the flames.
