Stockton & Welch have business with you if you want to buy or rent a house, or acquire timber lands. See advts. J. H.

Eev. William Morrison, who married two couples before 10,000 people at the Portland exposition last Wednes day evening, has sent the association a bill for $50. ''You may think my bill extravagant" he wrote, "but you cannot expect a minister of God to make a holy show of himself for noth iug." Last Sunday afternoon while Otto, the eldest son of J. E. Hall, was riding a horse in Hwaco, it suddenly reared up and threw the young man over its head. He was picked up in an insen sible condition, and found to have suf fered a severe concussion of the brain, and when the Canby left yesterday he was still unconscious. The railway track through the swamp near .Skipanon is about half laid. The tracklayers are out of rails this morning. The intention is to lay the rails the entire distance to the ocean this season, but delay in deliver ing'the material retards the work. More rails are expected on a barge or something to-day or to-morrow. There was a Democratic caucus at the courtliouse last evenina at which city politics were discussed, the manr ner of holding convention, the nomi nees for chief of police, council, etc., talked over. P. W. Weeks, for chief of police, Ernest Fergusonj for the same office, and Dr. Alf. Kinney, for councilman from first ward, were spoken of favorably, but no definite action taken. Last Saturday evening a drum corps was organized in this city, with the following members: Fred Brown, Wm. Lovett, Otto Zumwalt, F. Veach, Alf Douglas, De Witt Clinton, Tom Bryce, Al Cleveland, Kobt Jeffery and Jos. Leonard. O. Zumwalt was elect ed president; T. Bryce, secretary; and F. Brown, treasurer.

The marriage of Mr. F, L Dunbar, and Miss Lilian Crosby, both of this city, will be at the residence of the bride's aunt, at Seattle, Washington, at 4 o'clock, to-morrow afternoon, and will be private. Both are longtime residents of Astoria, and The Astobi an unites with a host of friends and acquaintances, in advance of the cere mony, in wishing the bride and bride groom a long and happy life. Work on the jetty at the mouth of the river goes on, and the mole is be ing rapidly extended. Extensive and gratifying progress has been made this season, and the intention is to push it still farther before the close of operations for '89. Adequate ap propriations in Washington, D. C, this winter are justified by the fa vorable character of the work, and the improvement already manifest The United States senate committee on Pacific railroads consisting of senators Fry. of Maine, Dawes of Massachusetts, Hiscock of New York, Davis of Minnesota, Butler of South Carolina, Morgan of Alabama and Hearst of California, reached Ogdcn yesterday on their way to this coast It is in order for the chamber of com merce to invite them here when they get in 'this vicinity. They are all brainy men and can appreciate a fine site whan they see it. The newspaper man who penned the following knew what he was talk ing abeut: ''The prosperity of a town is not graded by the wealth of it in habitants, but the uniformity with wbinh they pull together when any iilorrhnt undertaking n ' :c complished. A man Aviilt a ih.H'.-Mtid dollars at his command and a love for his town in his heart can do more for the building up and improving rf it than the millionaire who lock up his capital and snaps his finger at home progress." The salaries of nearly all the teach ers in the public school in district No. 1 have been raised, at the same time that an additional teacher was em ployed, which adds much to the effici ency of the school. The roll of teach ers, and the salaries now paid, are as followB : Prof. Pratt, $100 per month; Miss Badollett, S65; Misses McCor mick, Powell, Cornahan, Levings and Brodie, $60 a month each; Mrs. Bu sey, $65. Additional seats have been sent for to use in the new room re cently added to the primary depart ment The county court met as a board of equalization yesterday morning. A good many tax payers appeared and gave their views about the assessment roll, the majority opinion being, in effect: "I can stand it just as well as the others." Judge Page appointed Capt J. H. D. Gray as agent for the county to sell the court house block and secure another site on which to build a new jail and court house. The board will be in session to day and to-morrow and the day after. If any one has any kick coming now is the time: don't wait till the board adjourns and then wish you'd known they were in session. Go now. The newly elected directors of tho Astoria and South Coast Railway Com pany met at G:15 last evening. Wm. Eeid wa3 elected president; Dr. Al fred Kinney, first vice-president; May or 0. H. Page, second vice-presideift; I. W. Case, treasurer; finance commit tee, Wm. Eeid, L W. Case, C.H. Page; executive committee. Dr. Alfred Kin ney, J. W. Conn, D. K. Warren. Im mediately after the election president Eeid left for Portland on the Tele phone, and leaves to-day for New York. Everything points to prompt and harmonious prosecution of the work. Arrangements are now being made for beginning tracklaying from the neighborhood of M. J. Kinney's cannery, and the intention i3 to have the rails from the city terminus west ward laid as soon as possible. Jnst for instance. Is it well to be perpetually finding fault with things? Do you make any money by crying down and belittling enterprises great and small r Is it business: Last spring there was a good deal of fun poked at the new schooner, Bessie Ratter. So much was said that Capt. Olsen had difficulty in getting a crew. Well, she sailed; was a success; but, remembering tho send-off, ho went to Victoria. He will likely stay there. The little vessel's disbursements are not much, but they count. Astoria has lost that. Last spring, also, an effort was made to make trouble for vessels fitting out for Alaska. The result was the expenditure of $300, 000 in S. F., that would have been spent here. The Astorian doesn't believe in post mortems, and only re fers to these things to say, don't croak nor whine, nor try to keep people from starting up enterprises. If you can't do it yourself, don't deter others from working. The town must have enter prises or it can't go ahead. Telling about the winter of '43 is very enter taining, but the progress of '89 ismOre interesting to a good many people. Spend your money at home. It is your heme: you cannot improve it much by taking your money away to invest There is no way of improv ing a place so much as by encourag ing good merchants, good -schools and good people to settle among you, and this cannot be done unless you spend your money at home, for thero is where you got it Spend your money at home, because when it is necessary to get credit it is of your own town merchants you have to get it, and they must wait for the money. Spend your money at home. It will make better business for your merchants. They can and will keep better asort ments, and sell at lower rates than if the only business they could do was credit out, while the money goes to other places. Spend your money at home, bet the example now. Buy your dry goods, groceries and every thing else procurable in town; your merchants are your friends; they stand by you in sickness and trouble, and they are your associates. With out your trade they cannot do busi ness. To the Members of Seaside ILodge No. 13 A. O. V. W.

A report has been furnished The AsToniAN- for publication, of the finan ces of the hose team at the recent fire men's tournament at Tacoma, from which it appears that the receipts were as follews: Collected by subscription, $62675 KescueNo.2's 238.00 Eec'd from P. W. Weeks 138.00 Total 8094,75 The following is the statement of expenses: Telegrams $ 17.55 Tickets 278.60 Board 238.30 Eooms 88.50 Expense, supplies, etc., 274.65 Shoes 66.50 Express 26.00 Washing 6.00 $996.10 Leaving $1.35 more paid out than received, so that the tournament cost the participants about $1,000. Shortly, before the tournament the Astoria Iron Works, on the occasion of the fire at their establishment, gave chief engineer Weeks 8150. as an ap preciation of the successful efforts of the department in putting out the fire. In the expense account above, the $138 received from P. W. Weeks, is a part of that $150, which he turned over to the hose team. The remain ing $12, he paid for music at the dance at the armory the night of the recep tion and banquet at Eescue's parlors. MARINE NEWS AND NOTES. The bark Cora arrived at San Fran-, cisco from Cook's Inlet, Alaska, last Saturday. She encountered heavy weather, and had to throw overboad 500 cases of salmon of her cargo to get the leak above water. The steamer Clara Parker is busy. She came down from Portland last Sunday with 40 M brick, 50 barrels lime, and other freight Yesterday she took the schooners Ida and Ella to Skamokawa, to load lumber for San Francisco, and to-day will bring down the loaded schooner Eureka. Out of tho crew of 60 men, on tho U. S. fishery steamer Albatross, there are only some 20 native born Ameri cans. This facts lends weight to the recommendation of the recent com mercial conference, at San Francisco, that an apprenticeship system be in troduced in the American merchant marine.
