Oregon are not satisfactory to every
body. That follows, of course, for
each of the applicants had his CO.
terie of friends who are disappointed.
After all 1t Is largely question of
''whIch coterie shall be disappoint-
ed?" The side-tracking of Timothy
T. Geer is liable to cause trouble,
and those who know him best say
he will not accept the position of
register of the U. S. land office at
Oregon City. Mr.. Geer is well up
in the front rank of Oregon politi-
Clans, and by refusing the office
offered him he will be in position to
make fight for the position now
held by Mr.. Tongue. The latter
gentleman should have insisted on
Geer's appointment, if it took all
summer, for with him out of the
way, the chance for re nomination is
good; otherwise-not.

TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 7, 1897

A recent cheap-John book on
Alaska, published by F. Tennyson
Neely of London and New York,
contains the largest amount of mis-
information ever condensed into the
same space. Its author does not
even know the mining laws, but
gives quartz locations 1900 feet on
each side of the center of the vein.
One of the brilliant things is this !:
1.-The Alaskan rivers and streams
produce variety of edible fish, of
which the salmon is king, and after
the exhaustion of the Columbia river
the canning of this noble fish lin
Alaska received \ great impetus"
If the writer could visit Astoria and
see, even this year, which is an off
one, the thousands of cases of salmon
>vainly seeking market, he might
wonder how he came to imagine the
"Columbia river was exhausted"
If he could visit Cello and the
rapids this side next month, and see
the fall run of salmon fighting their
way up; could he see Taffe's fishery,
where the salmon are chased into a
box with a club at the rate of from
ten to twenty tons'a day, he might
change his opinion with regard to
the salmon being extinct in the
grand old Columbia. The balance
of the book sizes up with the part
quoted.

Europe wants horses for her armies,
and must have them. Some time
ago the French government sent an
army officer to the United States to
learn how far a supply could be
drawn from this country for the
French cavalry and artillery, and
the report was most favorable to
American breeding and the abund-
ant supply. With japan willing to
take bronchoes of the great western
ranges for army purposes, and the
fighting nations of Europe looking
this way in search of hlgh-bred
horses for their cavalry forces, Sec
retary Wilson is justified in the hore
of being able to establish through the
department of agriculture a foreign
market for the American horse,
whose value in the home market has
suffered sharp decline through COM
petition with electricity as motor
in recent years.-Oregonian.
