as Prussian Minister and Chancellor
was announced in February, 1890. but
did not actually occur until March 18th

exchange of courtesies between him ana

a reconciliation. This desire was granted
in 1895. The Emperor sent present

on his recovery from an attack of infiu-

A Gigantic Undertaking.

Undismayc1 by their experience in
the Suez and Panama enterprises, the
French are undertaking to build an
other great canal. They have now
determined to connect the Bay of BIS
cay with the Mediterranean by a
canal over 400 miles long, from Ia
to 2l5 feet wide and from Is to 81
feet deep, and with wilcned passing
places every eight miles. There win
be twenty-five locks, each Gi0 feet in
length and 50 feet in wi ltli. The
cost is calculated at Sl0oG)o.0c0. 1t
is, however. safe to say that it will
be much more. 1t is claimed by its
promoters that besides greatly cxpc:lit-
ing commerce, this waterway will be
of vast political significance. IL it
could only be kept open in war, Glib
raltar, the strongest fort in the world,
would be rendered useless, and France,
instead of England, would hold the

SALEM. Or, Jan. l6.-Governor
Lord at six o'clock lass evening ap.
pointed John B. Cleland, of Portland,
judge OF the fourth judicial district OF
Oregon, vice l.. 3. Stearns, resigned.
At the same time tho governor ap-
pointed G. S. Wright, of Astoria,
pilot commissioner, vice John Fox,
resigned.
These appointments relieve the gov
ernor of the trouble of choosing from
a number of applicants whose claims
have been earnestly pressed the past
few days. Though there were q num-
Der of applications and recommends
tions for Judge Stearns' place, the
fight was between Judge Cleland and
Lawyer Frazer. A preponderance of
the recommendations from the legal
profession was in favor of Cleland. and
his known experience in equity law
had weight in his favor.
The selectios of pilot commits
sioner was not without perplexity. A
number of applications were received
by the governor from prominent
Astoria citizens and they, too. had
long lists of recommendations.
