n. VJ t- l) & gaittj tftorian. ASTORIA. OBEGON: THURSDAY.. JULY 28. 1S38. The Seattle Enterprise appears to essay a task no less difficult than that of playing "Hamlet," yijh Hamlet left out It discusses "trusts,', and omits all mention of the oil trust, the sugar trust, and the coffee trust Tint dead cats of Albany must bs "pretty lively corpsas." The Albany Journal says: Included in the re port of needed repairs made by the school board last evening -was a wire screen for a cold-air box "topre vent dead cats from getting into the box." The sab appear to be growing exceedingly obliging in. soma parts of Maine. One -weighing brenty pounds jumped on to the boat-slip at Orring ton recently, and Tf as captured by a man who was waiting for the arrival of the boat The waters of the Pen obscot are said to be fairly swarming with them. i Deablt beloved, do not bo per sonaL "Who. is Ben Harrison?" sneers a Democratic contemporary. "He was United States senator when Cleveland was a hangman?" retorts a Eepublican contemporary. For Heaven's sake gentlemen be calm. The summer is still in front of us and watermelons are just coming in. The S. F. Alta man is still nosing around Harrison's family graveyard and digging up the mossy marble3 on forgotten graves. He ha3 just learned that a second cousin of Harrison's brother-in-law's step-mother thought in 1842 that the earth was hollow as the hopes of the Alt a man who has been there and knows better. The earth 13 not so hollow as the hopes of the Alta man for preferment since his pilgrimage northward last May. Thebe are very few things in this ridiculous little world of ours worth getting angry about, and the world is big enough for us alL Prin cipally for this reason it is sad to see quarrels among our newspaper breth ren of the Willamette valley. To call a brother newspaperman an ass, while only a figure of speech, ia not a happy comparison; to intimate that the brilliant genius who guides and guards editorial columns is not fitted by nature or education to carry intes tines to a bear, i3 equally open to ob jeotion. It may be that the prevalent warmth ia the Willamette valley hath occasioned this irritability,but it is none the less unseemly, that our esteemed cons, should so exhibit a lack of Christian charity. The enormous trade which is being done in violets at Paris this year is reported to bo duo to the discovery recently mado by a woll-knowna nthor. He has got a sight of the recipe used by the empress Josephine as a mean3 of rendering her "beautiful forover," and to whioh she owed that marvel ous tint which was the wonder and despair of the French ladies of tho time. The wife of Napoleon used to have boiling milk poured over a basin full of violet flowers, and with this decoction she bathed her face and neck every morning. No sooner was this secret brought to light than the Parisian ladies began to order great basketfuls of violets to be left at their doors daily, and this home-made cos metic is reported to be in daily use this season by thousands. . m The Newspaper Business. First of all, I want to say that the newspaper business is, to my mind, a purely commercial enterprise. I do not believe that newspapers are pub lished for the good of the public. That is to say, I do not believe that philanthropy enters into the question in the slightest degree. The news paper business is carried on in much the same way as any other business let us say, the shoe business, for in stance, by way of example. The man who sells shoes is anxious to get all tne trade no can. lie tries to buy a better article than his competitor. and he tries to sell it cheaper. By so doing he gains trade and many dollars. The newspaper editor aims to be more enterprising than his rival. He tries to set more and better news and special articles in advance of his neighbor, and in that way gives his newspaper standing for enterprise and ability. Foster Uoates in Sun shine. Reducing tho Surplus. The disposition of the Surplus in the u. a. Treasury engages tne attention of has our attention, and that is the reduc tion ot the surplus consumptives. Since the discovery and introduction of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump tion, there has been a marked decrease in the mortality from this dreaded dis ease, and it is possible to still farther re duce the number of Consumptives. How? By keeping constantly at hand a bottlo of Dr. King's New Discovery, and using according to directions, upon the appearanco of the first symptoms, such as n Cough, a Cold, a Sore Throat, a Chest or Side Pain.

Yesterday was probably the most disastrous day of the season in the war of freight. The rates of $1.20 and 72 cents per one hundred pounds on dry goods and cotton piece goods respectively from New York to Missouri river points via rail, nas created a great deal of comment What is perhaps even more decided evidence of prolonga tion in the rate war is the fact that yesterday tariff rates to Salt Lake and all other common Utah points were declared by all roads. A SHOCKING SUICIDE. Los Anoei.es. July 25. Charles- Jansen, formerly sheriff of Sacra mento county, committed snicide at bis home early this morning, in the most shocking manner: he used a double barreled shot gun, and tied a nanaKercniei irom tne toe or the right foot to the trigger; both barrels were discharged at once blowing one side of his face, and halt his head off, and spattering his brains against the ceiling oi tne room, making a most sickening sight. It is supposed that despondency from drink and lameness were the cause of it. NEW TO-DAY. Farm for Sale. QOI ACRES OF LAND ON NABEL ijiiX. Hirer. Pacific Co.. Wash.
