The amount of booty secured by the
Baker City postoffice robber or robbers
has been considerably swelled since the
first report, says the Democrat. At that
time Postmaster Foster could only give
the amount of cash and stamps missing
from the safe. Since that time he has
been able to learn the contents of the
registered packages taken and finds that
upwards of 81 900 from this source was
secured, making about s., 900 in all. One
package contained gold dust amounting
to 1866 and was sent through the mail
by Chinese mining company at John
Day, Grant county.

OREGON MAN is REMEMBERED.
AIaska's New Collector of Customs is
in Portland.

Mr.. J. w. Ivey, the new collector of
customs for the district of Alaska, has
arrived in Portland Oh his way to his
new post of duty, and today he was re-
ceiving the congratulations of his per-
sonal and political friends about town.
Mr.. Ivey will start for Alaska in few
days, and in the meantime is familiariz-
ing himself with many of the details of
his Office. Mr.. Ivey's candidacy was the
subject of very bitter contest at the
national capital, and that he was recog-
nized out of all the other candidates
almost every state in the Union had a
mans tribute to his integrity and
worth outside of his services to the party.
The Oregon delegation in Congress was
solidly in his favor, and it was their rec
ommendation that had weight, notwith-
standing the United States senators who
were seconding Oregon's claims. Mr..
Ivey has been represented as filing his
application as resident of Alaska, but
such statements were erroneous. His
application was based on the fact that
he is a citizen of Oregon, and a citizen OF
Oregon he intends to remain. Mr.. Ivey
spent over four months at the national
capital, and is one of the "few of the
faithful' who were first considered and
rewarded. Regarding Oregon matters
at the capital or the situation in Alaska,
the collector declined to discuss for pub
Acknowledgment.

Stephen M. Meeks ct al, plaintiffs were
also given judgment. The suit was

the ground that it was given fraudulent

some nice legal points. H. H. Riddell

The river, which has been at a stand

we had made mistake in selecting 40
young man, but he hadn't spoken two
