10 Secure the State Land grant.

The prospects for realizing much
from the supposed bountiful gifts of
lands to Washington on it's admission
to statehood, were not promising as
the best Of the surveyed lands were al
ready taken up, and the state cruisers
generally turning in all sorts of lands,
most of it having little or no value. If
the following bill is passed, there is
some hope of securing lands that have
value, which can be sold to realize
the funds needed to build the capitol
and others institutions for which they
were granted:
"Hon. John L. Wilson in the house
on Wednesday secured an amend
ment to the sundry civil appropria-
ton bill, providing for the reservation
of public lands for the benefit of the
state grants. The governor is autho-
rized by this amendment to apply to
the surveyor general for the survey of
such townships as he elects and from
the date of his application all settle
ments are barred, until the state has
made its selections. This is a practi-
cal reservation for the state Of any
townships that the governor applies to
have surveyed. All settlement rights,
attaching prior to his application, are
paramount. The reservation goes into
effect upon the governors application
to have the township or townships
surveyed, and not after or when the
survey is ordered. Therefore, the gov
ernOr, if the amendment becomes a
law as it will, can forthwith apply for
the survey of as many townships as
the state grants will absorb and the
same will remain in a state of reserva-
tion until the survey thereof is exc
cuted. The failure of congress to
make sufficient appropriations TO do
the surveying at once will not defeat
the governors right to make applica-
tions and thus establish the needed
reservation. This amendment is very
broad and in its effect as complete and
Binding as anything the state authori-
ties could desire. 1t accomplishes all
that can be accomplished at this or
any future time. 1t saves the grants. "

Congress has full authority to declare

What We Burn up in a Year.

"The property which we carelessly
or criminally burn up in year." says
the Louisville Courier-Journal, "would
wipe out one-fourth of the national
bonded debt. 1t would recreate the
worlds fair, restock it with all its
treasures, and have enough left to
make our navy one of the strongest
in the world, and pay a years interest
on the national debt besides. 1t
would pay several years interest on
the national obligations. 1t would
meet three-fourths of the liabilities Of
all the banks that failed in the United
States during the past year. 1t would
pay nearly half the liabilities of all
the commercial failures that occurred
last year. The loss is as great as if
some calamity should sweep away
three-fourths of the wheat crop of the
country or more than half of the cot
ton crop. If all the losses had been
piled up in one place it would have
been equal to confagration sweeping
away the entire city of Louisville.

Great Northern Extensions.

On good authority it is reported
that James J. Hill, president of the
Great Northern railroad, who has been
in London during the past winter. for
the purpose of raising funds to make
extensions of his road, has been sue
cessful to the extent of obtaining $15,-
100000. The story comes reliably from
one of the officers of the Great North
ern, who received a letter from Mr..
Hill few days ago, giving him this
information. OF this money 10000
600 will be spent on the road west of
the Cascade mountains and on the
Cascade tunnel. The road will he
completed from its present terminus
to Portland, via Olympia. A tunnel
will also be built under the city of
Everett Instead of the road going
around the peninsula on which the
city Everett is builta tunnel, half
mile long, will be built beneath the
city, from the Snohomish river to Gar
diner bay. This tunnel will shorten the
track by about eight miles; it alone
will cost something like half million
dollars. Five million dollars will be
spent on the eastern end of the road.
A great portion of this amount will be
expended in Strengthening the road to
Duluth, by building new road bed
from Foster to that city. This will
make nearly an air line from Puget
Sound to Lake Superior. 1t is also
said that it is Mr.. Hills intention, i'm
building up his transportation business
on the great lakes, to lay down lumber
and shingles in Buffalo and other Lake
Erie points as cheap as they can be
placed in Chicago by his present
route.
"This he can do" said a gentlemen
last evening, who is acquainted with
the matter cit will make a vast diff
ference in the shipment and distribu
tion of our shingles and lumber to the
eastern states."-Ledger.
