Roadway Against Great Diff.
culties.
To THE EDITOR OF THE STANDARD:
Dear Sir: wish to thank you for
the notices 1 frequently observe in
your paper and to assure you that I
have not been lax in looking after
Olympia. l fought for the 100000
for the harbor, but Cannon OF the APP
preparation committee, made the point
of order that such was under the River
and Harbor committee and, under the
rules of the House, the House could
take no jurisdiction. After skirmish
l was ruled against, rs to have ruled
| for me would set precedent and
have made a general fight. l went to
the River and HarbOr committee to
obtain for Olympia money to COM
plete her harbOr improvements, and,
after the usual scrap" and fight
from day to day, l have the consoling
information from members of the
committee, that l have been allowed
$25, QUO for the first year and $4,000
for the second year when the river
and harbor bill shall be reported. 1t
is TO be regretted that the administra-
ton has so conducted matters as not
to have money enough to improve the
country for the encouragement of
commerce, and that no river and har-
Dor bill whatever will be reported.
All projects of shipping to stand
still and all improvements to be ne
elected in order that n Government
by the bankers and brokers shall con-
tinue. The bill for public building
at Olympia, based upon the right of
Olympia as the capital has, after con-
sideration, been reported favorably by
the subcommittee, and if the Speaker
ever organizes the House SO as to allow
the committees to report and get off
their hands the great crush of bust
ness and bills, am assured We will
get this building, provided the Govern
ment has money enough to build one.
l was very anxious about this harbor
improvement, so that could demon
strate to Olympia my gratitude for
the many kindnesses her people have
shown me, irrespective OF their politi-
cal creeds. And after having secured,
at the end of a vigorous fight, an as
surance of a sum that would have
done Olympia much good, l am conf
PEELED to suffer in the general disap-
pointment that no bill is to be allowed
by which any portion of the north
west, including our State, can get u
dollar. But the recommendations
mean great deal for us as it assures
a good appropriation when the bill
shall bc reported in the short session
this coming December.
! wish herein to express my &C.
acknowledgement for services rendered
by your Board Of Trade and the sug-

A number of Olympians at Skaguay
have written the daily paper of this
city letter denying the reports OF an
epidemic prevailing at that place. 1t
says there have been only % deaths
in the place since August, which, they

community numbering at least 5000.

The launch of the little steamer
Marguerite was the tamest affair of
the kind ever witnessed. Tuesday
several workmen slid her along inch
by-inch towards the bare mudflats at
the west end Of Second street, and
after they had placed her on the
sloping beach they quietly waited for
a tide to come that would float her
into deep water. The evening tide
did not suffice and it was not till the
high tide of Wednesday morning that
the launching was completed. In
that time the government would have
launched the Kentucky and half
dozen other warships, and they would
not have been left on the beach for
Neptune to complete the work either.

The Disappointed Gold-Seekers
May Take the Law into There
Own Hands.
A letter from Dawson says that
serious trouble is feared there SO soon
as navigation opens. The writer states
that there are at least 1000 disap-
pointed men in the immediate vicinity
of Dawson City, almost penniless, who
will want to reach the South and never
again see Alaska. These men are
desperate. While they are not
naturally criminally inclined, they
are determined to reach at least the
sea coast at all hazards.
The letter intimates the possibility
of these men taking forcible possession
of steamboats, and other craft to carry
out their purpose if free transporta-
ton is not granted them.
"That the transportation companies
will make no concessions to men
without Means" adds the writer, al is
not for moment to be considered, for
they are not constructed on sentimental
lines. Therefore l believe that when
the river opens for navigation we shall
see some bloody times here. The dis
gustcd and desperate men now in this
section of the country are prepared to
walk over any number OF lifeless
bodies to get back to civilization. From
murmurings l have listened to / am
convinced that the discontinued mob
will defy the United States troops or
any other human power in Alaska.
ITO be candid with you, the num-
Der of men having struck anything
who came after the big strikes first
were heralded to the world, is a very
small one, and for that reason | am
not surprised at the existing dissatis-
faction.
"Many hold the transportation COM
panies responsible for getting them
into the country so late in the season,
by false representations. For that
reason they will urge their demand for
gratuitous return passage"

the negro's musical capacity is not
confined to the melodies peculiar to
his own race and its environments.
An air quite foreign to the plantation
tunes usually associated with colored
Ministries, rendered by quartette of
wcll-trained negro singers, assume a
quality quite its own. Take the popu-
lar melody, Gall Coons Look Alike to
Mo-" This was rendered by chorus
last night, and many who sat in the
audience, who were perhaps familiar
with the piece, felt that in truth they
had never heard it before.
The feature Of the first part was 4
patriotic song, ON the Spanish situa-
ton, the climax of which was formed
by the 4unfurling of large number of
American flags, and which fairly took
the house by storm. Besides this
there we're solos, duets, quartettes.
choruses, etc, in which the several
members of the company appeared to
advantage. In the second part the
specialties were all excellent.
Here is what the Oregonidn of the
Nth ult., said, in part, of this COM
pany:
From the time the curtain raises
until it descends in the last act, there
is succession of song and dance, and
neat bits Of acting, which show well
balanced company, there not being Il
weak part observable at any time,
There are no less than ten soloists, rang
ing from the deep and sonorous basso,
to a tenor who can MARBLE like bird.
The chorus singing is one OF the lead
ing features and encOres followed every
song, and some of the vOcalists were
called out three and four times times,
the audience refusing to take "no'
for an answer.

A SHIPYARD AT PORTLAND.

Linnton, the station on the Northern
Pacific just out from Portland, which
has become somewhat noted for being
the site Of the horse-cannery," is
now to be devoted to better use. 1t
is to be the site of ship-building
plant, a company having secured
1000 feet of waterfront, got an op-
ton on 1900 acres of land, together
with 1000 additional feet of river
front, besides eight house lots, and
organized a local company with a
capital stock of $275.OOO, which may
be increased to 81 100000 if required.
Not only this, but from 500 to 1000
men will begin work next week build
ing marine railways for docking pur-
poses, which are expected to be COM
pleted in 80 days. The originator of
the enterprise is Mr.. Clark, who
came from the East with the inten-
ton of building shipyard for him
self. He was already armed with
bodybuilding contracts amounting to
over 100000.
| Realizing, however, the great OPP
portunities Portland offered for boat
building and docking purposes, he de-
vised the scheme of doing business on
a wider scope than he had intended,
and for that purpose, after making
extensive purchases, organized COM
pany.
He showed references from respect
able men in Chicago which satisfied
President Mason, of the Chamber of
Commerce.; J. F. Watson, of the
Merchants National Bank, and 9TH
ers, that he was man OF affairs and
capable of carrying out his plans.
Mr.. Mason is President of the COM
pany. The capital stock has been
placed for the present at $275,O0O,
fully paid up and worcestershire.
Stock will be sold from 800 to full
blocks at par value.
1t is reported that Mr.. Clark has
purchased Stetfen's entire plant, and
furthermore that he will probably be
in a position to control the entire
towage of the harbor, but this could
not be confirmed. From the 5000
acres which he has an option on, he
will select the ground necessary for
the plant. The docks will cover q
600 feet of river front, and have facili-
ties for docking II vessels at time
The railway will place the ships II
feet out of water on revolving plat
forms, worked by machinery with
10000 horsepower. Facilities will be
included for unloading ships in bal
last without loss of any time and also
reloading them. In short, it will be
the most complete docking plant on
the Coast, with the most ponderous
machinery OF the latest modern make
for handling easily the largest vessel
atlOat.
AS stated, it is expected work will
be started next week. From $4,000
to 10000 piles will be driven from 40
to 70 feet long. No contracts will be
let. The work will be by the day
under the direct supervision of the
company, in order that NO boodling
can take place. The company's main
Office will be in the Chamber of Com
merce building, with branch Office
at the works. Applications for posi-
tons, which include clerks, mechanics,
stenographers, laborers, ETC., are pour
ing in on Mr.. Clark in a veritable
stream. At the rate they are coming
he will need corps OF mail clerks.

is fascinated by the negro melodies,
arranged for solos, quartettes or
choruses, as the case may be, but all
rendered in that vibrant, sympathetic,
passionate tone quality characteristic
of the negro race. In all the range of
musical art there is nothing quite like
a negro melody rendered by son or
daughter of the African race. But
