C2 -: J hc $& $fosfait. TORIA. OBEQON: WEUX C3" AY DECEMBER 18. 1SS9. CiO"a,,sl Coimiy Official Paper. The two leading Democratic candi dates for tbe United States senator sliip in 0nio are koHl millionaircs and both free traders, "Plutocracy!" Some one suggests that New Mexico be called New Granada. As the ab breviation o this name would be "N. G.." it is not likely that the New Mex icans will fall in with tbe suggestion. A St. Lock editor announces that hehas-a teen rapier to prick all fools and knaves," to whicb a Chicago contemporary rejeins: "His friends, if they are prudent, will take it from him. He may injure himself." Is a sermon preacbedat Eockford ;Mr. bloody said tbafthose wbo played progressive eucber could not bope for heaven. If this statement is influen tial in the total abolition of tbe game jlr.jVIootly will not have lived vain. in Axtthig that would tend to make business for returning cars sbould be encouraged in this city. Tbe more we have to send back overland, tbe less will be the wbeat rates to Astoria. It is almost as expensive to pull empty cars up a grade, as to roll full ones down one. The fact that Canada is not repre sented in the All-American confer ence is strongly calculated to make the Canadians realize their anomal ous position, "When it comes to di plomacy, Canada as a dependency of Great Britian, is really of less account than an of tbe smallest American republics. A Michigan girl wbo was forced by her parents to go througb tbe mar riage ceremony witb a man wbom sbe did not wish to wed, said "no" to ev?r question that required "yes," in spite of which the justice pronounced the pair man and wife. The supreme cjurt lwwever, decided that tbe wbole carcmony was null and-void. Captain Samuel Samuels, so well known for so many years in marine circles, and author of "Prom Fore castle to Cabin," bas purchased an in terest in The Marine Journal of. New York, and his name now appears in the editorial column witb that of George L. Norton. If the captain can handle the paper as well as he can sail a ship, there is no -end to the suc csss that is still in store for bim. The seventh monthly report of; the Oregon weather bureau is received. In onr judgment it would add to the value of the production if the matter we-e conectiy credited. Items from this paper have a local value and sig nificance, ir cieuited, that they lose if jammed in unclassified. The Asto riax doesn't care -whether it is cred ited or not; it got over that long ago, hut it would like to see items from this locality ciedited to Astoria. Any paper will do. just so that Astoria gets the credit. To do this -would give a value to the items in consonance -with the expressed desire of the state -which ha? appropriated the money that keeps the thing Koingr. A 'ev profession has been created that of ''boomer". In Portland, to daj, standing around hotels, and pub lic places, are men from Seattle, Ta coma. Port Townsend, and Spokane Fall?, especial!- the last two places, whose pleasure, privilege, and daily delight it is to talk, and talk first, last and all the time, for their respective localities. A good talker can com mand 150 a month. It pays. It pays the talker. It pays the man or men who pay the talker. It pays the man or men who listen to the man who is doing the talking; that is, if his advice is taken, and acted upon. As yet Astoria has none of that class engaged. Such meretricious aids in this case do not seem to be required. The .Microbe of Electricity A Mystery. "With all the paraphernalia of the modem physical and electrical labora tory, the instruments of precision that will handle a millionth of an inch as readily as a laborer his pick and shov d;with all the evolution going on through generations of scientists, an the almost incessant wresting of secrets from the bosom of nature, we doubt if science is any closer to the isolation or attenuation of the microbe of the magnet It is absurd to suppose that a primary energy is impressed upon a piece of hardened steel once for alL The transfer of that energy into actual work would destroy the magnetic power, yet such a destruction not on ly does take place, but the very exercise of the power strengthens the magnet, A horseshoa of steel may he magnetized in ten seconds by the current of a few amperes from a batten-, a ndiculously small amount of energy all told, and such magnet can lift many pounds of iron in contact. But without contact it may lift and hold a pound of iron easily. It will hold that pound for an eternity, and every second of thai time -without end the magnet is expending energy until it foots up an almost inconceivable total of actual power. 2?ot alone that, but the magnet of one pound lifting pow er to-day may and will be stronger to morrow. Where does all this really tremen dous amount of energy come from? Ey what inscrutable process doestho mere magnetization of a bar iron make of it a mackine for the trans formation of energy? 2fot a reaction ary or storage device which, like a stel spring, honestly give3 back ap proximately all it has received, but a perpetual transforming orconveiting machine. There is a hidden pro cess going on of some kind; en ergy is going into the magnet all the time it is doing work energy in some form. "Where does it come from --gravitv? atmosohere? solar rays? earth currents? "Vbocansay? It is a greafc.problem, worthy a lifetime of indefatigable research for the microbe, nadwill be diBcbYered that the dis- coyery will make electricity tbe queen or .Nature's forces, and steam will be come a dim vision of the dark ages of the past. A CASS IN" POINT. Iaocr forefathers Ca.75, piraplcs were at tributed to diseased blood. Bat modem nediciaj h.13 doaoastratcd that rich food dots net crcato craptloas by fouling tho Wood, tat retarda digestion, wlilch makes tho stomach torpid, aad tiio circulation sluggish, caJ Li turn cause? ta enfeebled action of the pore3 which congest or become pimply. Tho modem theory therefore inot to treat tho Lloo J, bat tho etomach and liver, and it is under this new idea, that Joy's Vege table Sareapcrflta was conceived. It is wip ing the old " blood disease ' idea out of ex istence. A case in peint: " I havo had for rears spells of Indigestion and dyspepsia and trlefl nearly everything Tinally I took one of the leading fiarsaparlDas. It caused pim ples to break out on my face, which I was told was caused by the potash. If earing that.
