St. Hclbn. March 18, 1892.
ths Astoria railroad.
Astoria ban at last some hope of tu
tu ring raliroad, not ail imaginary
- line, but a real railroad. A contract
lioa bwu signed by C. W. Schofield
a iid Owirt'e Gosi to build the road,
which will run through the Nehalera
alley, probably along the roaUJ Of the
bid Astoria 4 South Coast urvey. Ac
rorditig to the contract, Messrs 8chr
field and G.a will receive $300,000
cosh when the road is completed and
accepted bj the trustee, and other
Coiinideratioiie, such right-of-way
and grounds for terminal facilities to
the value of f 200,000. The $300,000
will he raised by a itock company,
which will buy up the 800 acres land
sulwidy. The land subsidy was offered
t j Mr. Schofu ld if he would construct
the road, but he declined, and sug
gested this method of raising the
money, it la said inat actual con
struction has already been commenced,
and a corps of surveyors are now in the
field at work. Mr. Schofield says the
road will connect with the Bouthern
Pari lie kt some point on the Una at or
near Hillaboro. The contractors have
agreed to build the road within two
yean.
A road through the Nelialem valley
has" long been needed, and no that a
fair proposition has been accepted for
the construction of the same, we sin
cerely hope that the land owner along
the proposed route will not assume
that they have a "snap-judgment" on
the situation and want ten time more
for the right-of-way than their whole
possessions are worth. This is too
commonly the case in such matters,
which, in fart, only react to the entire
disadvantage of those persons. Aa
to the present status of things, without
a railroad theNehalera valley has little
hope of any great degree of prosperity,
and by thus placing the value so ex
orbitantly high npon their property
they simply retard their own prospects.
True, a railroad usually builds Where
there is business sufficient to justify.
. But when we consider the namerous
strings pulling against a railroad to
Astoria, the great expense of building
through this particular locality, and
the number of propositions that have
already failed as regards Astoria rail
road building, we are led to believe
that even the present bright prospects
may be long delayed by the land
owners placing a too high a valuation
upon the right-of-way.
Again, We will say that our prefer
ence would be to nave a road con-
will probably be the nominee for com'
minsioner, aud for representative,
Marl In White, oIMayger, and Norman
Merrill, of Clatekanie, have been favor
ably mentioned. But by the time the
convention meets several new caiidt'
iates lor the last named utnee may
"bob, up serenely" and. change the
whole situation materially, Fo'r these
two offices it is very important iust at
this time to put forward the very beat
men in tne county. There is im
portant work to be done and we want
men who have got snap aud rustle
for these places, otherwise it is tolly
to males the norrtirutfotf.
Next Thursday is the day set for
the meeting of the republican county
convention. On that day a complete
set of nominations for county offices
will be made. Delegates to the state
convention will be seleoted at that
time. In making tire nominations for
tne Various offices there should be but
one point considered in this matter,
and that is whether not the aspirant
is capable of intelligently discharging
the duties of the office or not. We
have plenty of men who are compe
tent to Handle the auuirs of the conntv
and the names of such metf only,
snouid oe entertained by the conveo
tion on next Thursday.

lumbia, but since there seems to be no
especial movement on foot at this par
ticular time to accomplish this end,
we say give as the road through the
Nehalem, or in fact, on any route that
passes through the county. We can
not help being greatly benefited no
matter which route it takes.
AMONG TBS USDIDATSS,
. TOR ASSESSOR.
In the midst of the great scramble
for the nomination for clerk and
sheriff the people seem to have quite
forgotten that there will be any other
vacancies to fill at the coming elec
tion. One of the most important of
fices in the county has been almost
entirely overlooked. No one seems to
want to be assessor, and without the
services of which the rest of the officers
would be poorly compensated. In this
, connection the name of Mr. George
.Myger has been spoked-favorably af
by a number of our best citizens, and
we have no doubt as to his qualifica
tions to fill the office. In our opinion
the republican convention could not
make a better choice than Mr. George
ifayger for assessor.
TOR 8HERIEF.
There are a number of aspirants
for the nomination for sheriff this
time. Among those most promi
nently mentioned, so far as we have
been able to learn, are C. W. Blakealey,
J. H. Bwager, 8. Saulser and Ed.
CopeUnd. All of these gentlemen,
we believe to be thoroughly competent
to nil the omce, and at tbia time it is
hard to draw any conclusion as to
which One has developed the most
strength, wtiiie au appear to be con
fident of success.

The clerk's office is the
to many would like to
have it from a reliable source that
one gentleman in this county who is
supposed to have considerable in
fluence baa received np to several
day ago, twenty-seven letters from
as many different parties asking him
to support them for the clerkship. Of
conTse there is to be but one clerk
elected, and indeed the one who comes
out victorious against such odds must
think himself extremely fortunate. Bo
far as we can learn there is but about
six or seven who stand the slightest
chancei for the coveted prize. Here
they are! E. . Quick, W. A. Meeker,
B. C. Campbell, B, Beichard, D. J.
Switzer and E. M. Wharton. The
contest for the nomination u a hotly
contested one to say the least, and
conclusions can only be drawn when
the convention have voted and elected
the candidate. The respective strength
of several of them seems to be very
nearly equal and it will undoubtedly
take a number of ballots for the con
vention to decide. ,
For COtJKTT itJDOg. ,
For this office we have as yet heard
of but four aspirants, W. W. West, of
Scappoose, T. C. Watts and B. Gox, of
Bt, Helens, and G. W. Barnes, of
Mayger. Either of these gentlemen
are perfectly competent for the place,
and would no doubt conduct the af
fairs of the county, so far as Was in
their power, for the best interest and
welfare of it's citizens.
For school superintendent, treas
urer, and surveyor we have heard no
other names spoken of except those
of the present iritnmbents, so the
thances are that withoat any opposi
tion Messrs. Cole, Watts and Little
will receive the nominations for treas
urer, school hitperintendent and sur
veyor respectively. They all seem to
have given entire salbfaction daring
