Some idea of the quaniity of salmon
in the Columbia R'iver, Orogon, or a.
least of the .uantity taken out, may
be formed from the fact that some of

ting up in cans au average of ten tons

o: idea of the extent of the lum
ber indztrips o the Pacitic Northwest
and oi the extcut of the forests is had
in the fact that during the six months
from March to August of 1895 10,935

The London Telegraph. comment
ing u'o a Lord Sackville's issuance oZ
the fmhiet in which he makes an
attrack tupn united States Ambassador
Bavrd., savs: A very foolish, ill
mannered, ill-timed, and ill-made
paaphlet has been issued by Lord
Sackville with the purpose of iujuring
the reputation of Mr. Bayard, now the
United States Ambassador, charging
him with being a~ political trickstez
and a consistent and determined enemy
.uc England. The whole thing is so
fuil of thoughtless bitterness that itis
not wort while to reproduce any part
of the brochlre. We only hope that
the comniou sense and practical judg
ment (f the English and Americai
publil will treat ihis un-called-for at
tack withl contemptuols disdain.

DIS311ISSED THE APPEA-L.
Ile Suprene Court of theUnited States
will not Entertain It.
The Supreme Court of the United
tates bs handed down a decision in
X. F. 3cDowell vs United States, an
ippeal frni South Carolina. Between
the dates of the appointment of Judge
Brawley and his qualification as Judge
the February term of the District
Curt at Greenville began. Judge
Simontou, as Circuit Judge, designated
udge Seymour, District Judge of the
Eastern District of North Carolina, to
hold the Court. This Judge Seymour
id for two weeks. Whilst he was
presiding the grand jury was organized.
This grand jury found a true bill
against McDowell for violation of the
postal laws. Judge Brawley having
qualified relieved Judge Seymour,and,
mong other cases, tried the case of
McDowell before the petit jury. He
was convicted and appealed to the Cir
cuit Court of Appeals. His ground
was that,as the office of District Judg<
f outh Carolina was vacant when
Judge Simon anated Judge
Seymour, his action was in
Judge Seymour could not :la*fully
hold the Court; that the laws of the
United States permit such designation
only when the judge is sick or abseni
r otherwise unable to hold the Court.
It being an entirely new question thc
'ircuit Court of Appeals certified thc
case to the Supreme Court and the Su
preme Court have dismissed Mc
Dowell's appeal.

The people of the upper section o:

themselves into a new county th<
thing will be done.
