To THE EDIToR:-I was much in
terested in reading the editorial in
your last issue in regard to the i'm
provement at Yaquina bay. 1t is
a well known fact that the Oregon
Pacific railroad and the ocean
steamers running in connection
Herewith did large business, 60
ing in and out of the harbor with
out any trouble. Passengers and
freight came through this port to
all parts of the valley and Eastern
Oregon, and large quantities ol
wheat, oats, -four and other pro-
ducts of the valley were shipped
through this way to the markets OF
the world. Statistics show that
during the short time this trade
went on that there was more saved
to the shippers in freight than was
spent in improving the harbor
This large volume of traffic could
have been kept up and greatly in.
creased had the present manage
ment SO desired. 1t is no fault o.
the harbor that the business is
stopped, but the fault Of the rail
road management. If the harbor
had received fair treatment the

Resolutions.

To Corvallis Lodge No. IA. A. T. & A. M
We your committee appointed to pre-
sent appropriate resolutions of respect OIL

Washington Wilson, submit the follow
ing report:
Whereas, 1t has pleased an Allwise
Providence TO remove from this earth to
His presence on high, our dear and be
loved brother, Bushrod Washington
Wilson, whose consistent life, patient
industry, long public service, unqualified
devotion to family, brethren and friends,
his honesty and integrity of purpose,
and untiring zeal as co-worker in the
brotherhood of Ancient Free and Ac-
cepted Masons made him pre- eminently
prominent and useful in all walks of life
aud endeared him to all whose fortune it
was to know him; as a last farewell re-
spect to his memory, therefore be it
Resolved, That the community has
lost a highly valuable aud faithful friend,
the close Of whose eventful life deprives
the public of his long and useful service,
while our beloved order also mourns the
loss of one of her brightest lights, and
one of her most devoted and zea loEs
members, whose faithful deyotions to
its principles and precepts endeared him
to the whole brotherhood, while his be.
reaved family loses true and loving
husband, a dear father and faithful
brother, whose kind and endearing de-
votions can never be replaced;
Resolved, That it should be our earn
est duty to emulate and thereby profit
by the example of his pure, earnest,
faithful, honorable and upright life;
Resolved, That this lodge be draped
in mourning for 80 days; that these reso-
lutions be recorded at length upon the

work Of improving it-wonld be go
ing on now. The contract was let
in regular form to responsible par
ties and. for about half what the
board of engineers said it would
cost, and yet the secretary Of war
refused to sign it. 1t is a sad criti-
cism upon, the officials Of our gov
erment that one so high in author
ity can commit such q great wrong
to the people. Ifthe secretary had
signed the contract, as was his
plain duty, work would have went
right along.
Now, Mr.. Editor, l am glad you
have spoken out so boldly on:this
matter. I hope the good work will
go on until our law makers will be
compelled, through the pressure OF
public sentiment, to give the va
uuina harbor such recognition as
its merits deserve,

On the Mesabi.

M. l.. Fay and Captain j. A.
Pcarce have disposed of their
two third interest in tho Fay
mine to Pickands, Mather q
company Of Cleveland. The
consideration was $50, COO Cap
tain Harry Roberts still retains a
third interest in the property
and. it is said. he asks a much
larger sum for his interest than
Messrs Fay and Pearce received
for their share in the property.
Exploratory work on the Fay
mine began about three months
ago. Mr.. Fay and Captain
Pearce secured the lease OF four
fourties from A. l.. Miller of
Duluth. and one forty from w.
G. Yawkey of Detroit, Michigan,
and Immediately began careful
and thorough exploration for
ore. Their efforts were crowned
with success aid before two
months passed away ore in large
quantities and OF an exceptional
ly fine grade was shown up.
Realizing that they had prize
they finally determined TO open
mp and operate the mine them
selves. Captain Harry Roberts
was given a third interest in the
mine for equipping it with the
necessary machinery to operate
il. After shafts had been sunk
il was found that the surface
covering averaged only about %
foet and then came another dis
cussion between the owners as
to whether or not il would be TO
their advantage TO work the
mine on the steam shovel system.
About this time eastern parties
became interested and offers Of
n nattering nature were made
the owners. Two weeks ago
Messrs Fay and Pcarce offered
to sell their share i'm the mine
for $50, 900 and Pickands. Math.
er q Company took them up.
The terms were cash and the
money was paid over last Friday.
