w ASTORIA. OREGON: Sl'SPAY -MAY C, 18SS. 3lEiA'ILLE W. FULLER. A Pen Pictnre of the New Chief Justice. Melville Weston Fuller, the new Chief Justice, was born at Augusta, Me., February 11th, 1833. His father was Frederick A. Fuller and his mother CatherineMartin, daughter of Chief Justice Nathan Weston. Mel ville graduated at Bowdoin in the class of 1853, his classmate being E. J. Phelps, the minister to England. Mr. Fuller after leaving college began the study of law in the office of his uncle, George Melville Weston, at Bangor. He began the practice of bis profession in Angusta, in 1856. He acted as editor of the Aye and won his spurs in journalism. Feeling that his true field of work was the law, and realizing thai his native city did not afford that scope for effort which he stood in need of, young Fuller came west and selected as his future home Chicago. His ability was speedily recognized and properly re warded. For thirty years he has en joyed a lucrative practice and won distinction among the foremost at the bar. In 1801 he was elected a mem ber of the State Constitutional Con vention, in 1862 he was chosen to the legislature, and although a Democrat running each time in a strong Re publican district, was victorious by large majorities. He was a delegate to the Democratic National conven tions'of 1S0L 1872. 1874 and 1880. In 1860, when in Chicago only about three years, he was seleoted to deliver the address on Stephen A. -Uougiass, It was an eloauent. scholarly and bril liant effort. In 1853 he married Cal ista O. Reynelds: After her decease he married Ellen, daughter of the d:s tinguished banker, William T. Cool baueh. He has eight daughters. In personal appearance Mr. Fuller is xm usually handseme: his hair and muS' tache being silvery, and his features clear cut and intelligent. In stature he is short aud slight, compared with his future associates on the supremo bench. Mr. Fuller is n man of liigu scholarly legal talent, and. as an ora tor, his talents have won him the ti tle of tho"Chauncey M. Depew of tho West." In politics ho is best de scribed as an olu-scliool JJemocrnt, He was loyal in feeling during the war, a believer in the doctrine of state rights and an advocate of simpio gov ernment. He is n member of the Pro testant Episcopal church. The Best of All Ignored. It is really exceedingly surprising to an Oregonian to see how wofully ignorant is the average Easterner, of this great west. Everybody has hoard of Califor- .mrl (n I...... ...... litn.t. nf T.nmB and Seattle and their worse than hum- bne booms. Nobodv has heard of the great empire that dividen these two grent humbngs. On the train from t'a'ifornia on Mon day moraine wero two averaselv intern gent gentlemen, natives of Indiana, who were traveling, sight-Beeing. They had been to California and were returning over the Northern i'acilio railroad "Yes," they were "going to Portland, where they ohanged cars to tno jNortnern Pacific. This is Oregon, eh?" Arriving at Eugene City: "In the 'Willamette valley, eh? Much of this kind of country?" Were informed that the wil lamette valley was over half as large as Indiana, and probably contained more than half as much farming land as the Hoosier stale: "Ah? In California they told us that it never did anything but rain in Oregon." Their attention was called to the apparent fact that there had not been enough rain this spring. Great surprise! Evidently doubted their owu senses, and the man who was talking with them. Uf course they knew a (Jaliior nian could not be mistaken! lleached the. Marion couunty border. "Marion county, eh? what's the county seat of Marion county?" They were in formed. "Salem, eh? Is Portland much of a place?" The gentleman tried to tell them that it was a city of 40,000 in habitants, supreme doubt depicted on their faces and they moved away. Don't stop in tho Willamette valley nor Oregon. No use; because the Califor nian told them so! Another man cams to Seattle a few days since. Considered a prominent man in tue state irom wnich lie was "astray." It required a great deal of talking and ar gument to convince this centlemau that there was such a place as Portland, and it required almost the use of force to get him to come over there. These cases are freauent. A circular recently issued from Califor nia by a "state official" sets forth the ad Atintages of that state in glowing colors, and then sets forth a number of excur sion trios that might be taken from San Francisco. One was to "Mt. Shasta, and 'aETURS,' leaving the the Central Pacific at etc.. etc;" one was to Southern Cali- lornia, one to tne bandwicn islands, one to Alaska, and last to "Port Townsend, Seattle, Tacoma, and Vancouver in AVashington Territory and British Co lumbia." The book is quite a large one, but nowhere within its covers docs the word Oregon appear. That shows how beautifully we are being ignored. Let the board of trade think of these things to-night. saiem journal. Don't Experiment. Yon cannot afford to waste time in experimenting when your lungs are in danger".

The typesetting machine has come to stay, and a good many fear that the days of typo are numbered. It is not so. The typo was here first and will remain until the final blast upon tho bulge horn of Qabriel resounds over hill and dale until the heavens are rolled up like a scroll of spring poetry. Tho typesetting machine may do much. It may let the types drop out of their boxes or puddle around in molten metal but there are things which it cannot do. It cannot put on a "sub" and attend a baseball game; it cannot use lower registered notes and yell out, "Who's got take B 13? What's your last worai" it cannot borrow sorts or fake thin spaces, or jeff, turning up tnree monies at will; it cannot reach out for a "ffl" while keeping one eye in search of a fat take; it cannot hug the fat rack like a brother and borrow fine cut; it cannot cuss the telegraph editor or believe that the proof reader is a lineal descendant of old Mephisto; it cannot vote solidly against tho paper it works for, or punotuate matter correctly for literary geniuses; it cannot grab-stake a dis mantled fellow, or fit a footsore pil grim for the night; it cannot grow brain-weary or paint the office blue when it catches a galley toward morn ing; it cannot leave its lunch-basket where the editor can hold a midnight orgie over it, or eliminate the ortho graphic bone-spavin from a sentence, giving it elasticity; it cannot immor talize a man by ignoring what he did write and setting what ho should have written; it cannot sing church musjo evenings, while throw ing in type, or believe its dupes draw them themselves up when being meas ured; it caunot, when tho ghost walks on Monday and the lunch man is Uaid. ro forth hilHno' lh prnnnil in high places, to carminato the burg or talk shop on tho corner. It cannot do this or that or these or any of them. Science may put fiugers on a type-setting machine, tint it cannot furnish it with brains or heart. The typo is here aud has his knitting with him.
