Tbe city father neeui pervaded with a spirit ol Improvement, since there ha, been more of that kind ol work done in this place this sprlupr than baa char acterized the city under any former administration. There i one certain fact, and that i thero bun nothing been done which wu not really neo- enKury, and which will not add mater- ally to tbe benclllt ol tlio population, as a body. RBPimi.tcAH Primary. Notwith standing the fact that the weather was Inclement, there wu a proportionately lurg crowd of enthusiuslio republi cans gathered in this place Wednes day, pursuant to a cull for a county republican primary, and iho aweni blugn gathered at the courthouse and proceeded to elect the following-named person delegate to the county con vention which will meet next Wednes day. The vole resulted in the election of II. It. ClifT, W. J. Rise, C. W. Hlukos ley, M. F. If asen, and M. Saxon, who will cast their ballot for the nominees for county officers on the republican ticket. No Raw on Eahtbk If there is any truth in the saying that "If it doe not rain on EaMer Sunday there are iimiiw izood reasons to believe that spring has come, and thai the uc ceeding six week will be plojsunt." wo may look for omo spring weather, uot the style, however, that we have endured for seven month past, when it is evidont that something touched the "spring" and neglected to let it up again. An early Easter is pretty good evidence of an early spring, and a it failed to rain on that day, we can live in hope, even if we do die in dispair. Oh Sunday, Apiiii. 1.

The new quarters are commodiously located, and when once the gentlemen are settled there they will have an attractive business place. Thk Third Saloon. Thos. Cooper, the veteran saloon-keeper, well known in Columbia county, bus received hi stock of liquors, and opened hi new saloon in this pluno. Tom has an at tractive piece, and thrnuah his genial habit and extreme generosity will, no doubt, become a popular again,- a a caterer to I he public' demands, as he formerly was. He will serve from over his bar, the celebrated Weinhurd beer. He will be pleased to receivo his old friends, and will endeavor to treat them courteously. To Republican Clubs. Perhaps no better way of ascertaining the senti ment of the people, -f Columbia county regarding candidates for tbe several oilices, to be nominated next Wednes day, could be devised than' for the club lo take an informal vote in your several meeting, and thereby enable the delegates from the different pre cincts to act in accordance wilh the wishes of the people when they assem ble in convention. This, no doubt, would be a very effective way of bring ing out the full feeling of the people, and enable the convention to harmon ize on candidate. There is little time for this action, and we urge that there be immediate action taken regarding the matter. Suhb to bb Damnrd. The presi dent may intend to veto the seignior age bill, but it is evident ho is iu no hurry lo gel at it. We aro of tbe opin ion that be will veto the bill. Yet he hesitates for very good reasons. He may be likened to sn executive whose ollloial duly requires him to sign a death-warrant, or to a sheriff upon whom the law devolves the disagree able task of springing the trap that hnrls a soul into eternity. It i a very (olenin piece of business that Mr. Cleveland ha in hand, and is fraught will) result that will affect American politic long after he has passed from the stage of action. He is about to become the executioner of the party which has twice honored him with the presidency. It is a very serious mai ler to destroy such a party a that, and particularly under uch circum stances. It is no wonder the presi dent hesitates nnd postpones action until the Inst hour. Yet he realizes that if he does not veto the bill he will belie all of his past professions and will be a traitor to tbe gold power which bought his nomination. It is a sad plight for a president to be in, but ho is there and will have to make the most of it. He is in Ihe position de scribed by the poet: "He will be damned if" he does, and be damned if he doesn't." There is condemnation awitiiiiig him whether he sign or ve loo the bill. Showing; Their Fbblino. Never beforo in the history of Columbia county politics bus there been such a fenlimr cxistinK as there is at the pres- nt lime. Every republican in tbe county is inspired with a feeling of ac- t on which indicate tnai iney are ue- inrmined to succeed in the present campaign, a more striking illustration of the fact could not have been drawn ilion in linvn witnessed tho enthusiasm which nrevailed. and tbe number of vole cast, at the primary in this pro cinct. The same can be said oi every nracinot in the county, as is demon strated by the large enrollment of the republican clubs throughout the whole rniiniv. At Gillton. where the 'popu list claim to have naa iuu sway, more . , , li: . ..1..K nf is a nounsning repuonn ' thirty-six members ; at Apiary there is ... . ...I.!. ikiHltf nna a repuuncan ciuu wnu iuj" members, the entire vote ot tne pre cinct being forty-two ; at Delena the ilnh has a lame enrollment, and tbe Vernonia. Mist, Clatskanie, nainier, and nil other renubhoan clubs have large membership, while the Honlton club has a membership of twenty-tour. Every needle of the indicator points to the success oi tne repuoucan puny m June. People are awake to tneir in terests, and with that object in view the republicans of Columbia county Hninrmined to work until they plant upon tbe uppermost pinacle, their banner, thusly inscribed, "ViO' tory." . THE ASTORIA RAILROAD. John Halo, tho Capitalist, SpeaKs or the littte. "Although I have not heard of any nrniflGt that appeared to me like a bus iness proposition looking to the con struction Of the lortianu-asiorm rail road," says John Halo, Iho well known contractor and capitalist, "still 1 am . nrpnnmd to assert that ihe road not ha built. Although this is day of canal building when such pro jects as tbe Manchester canal, some tiuriy miies m - -- -r- 1 nf lifi.v millions of dollars, ii nwuknn still there are a large number of people who believe that the i.nnrn of anv eit.v is dependent abso lutely upon a railroad. The litherage on freinht may be but twenty-five tut .nn hv river much loss than it can be profitably handled for by rail hut yet people oan be found who iii an. that a railroad to the mouth of the Columbia would cut an impor .t fionra in the exDort trade. I do sr.iilv understand how tho Ua mn Vnmflo can be expected to build to else Under ! existing circumstance. Of course cer tain olliuiuls of the road may and piobubly would exert considerable In iluence with the company to obtain favorable tralllc conlracte for a new road. This in itself might be con sidered capital towards building. Il illicit lie lulHcient to secure the sub sidy to the officials, and induco con tractors to assume the building of the road. I doubt, however, if there are contractors here who will undertake to build a road again until they know w here the money is coming from. And when the money is on hand lo build a road, then why should we not have a public competition und all have a cliunce to bid and not 4 private let ling. 1 understand tljere are New York parties who, it issaidjiave looked over the field and havei expressed a willingness lo advance money il given all the subsidy. But thcije is the stitch again, as when two or three purtie are interested in such a! project, they gonerully propose to divide the sub tidies. At iiny rate I should like to see the road built. Not that I think it would pay, but il would furnish em ployment, nnd help lo haprovo condi tions, at least for a timeJn Ibis local ity. Besides it would open up some new country in which tli-re is consid erable timber and no doubt minerals, and Home of which, perljnps, may be used lor farming." i Beware of South Africa. The following is an extract from a private letter published in the Post Intelligencer of Seattle, from which it appears that South Africa is not quite what has been generally supposed : Johannesburg, South Africa, Janu ary 22, 18!)4. I write you a few lines to let you know that I am still alive. I am foreman In a mine. : My nay is 75 per month; board fz-ri a moHlh without bed. This is no country lor a while man. Negroes do all the ham mer and drill work. Their pay is 62 cents per day. There are 50,000 of them working within thirty square mile of here. There are 1,500 stamp mills in one line of fifty miles. Each mill has from ten to a hundred stamps. The rock is low , grade assaying from $3 to $15 per ton. It ia eulphurets, and requires the McArdle process. The ledges have been prospected by diamond drills 2,000 feet down. . This is a piairie country. The soil is red Baud and very poor. It will not pro duce without water. The Dutch Boer are a lazy, ignorant people. There art between 70,000 and 80,000 of them in the Transvaal republic. The negroes are worth nothing here. You can buy a good strong buck for $100. 1 will leave this country as soon as I can earn money enough to getaway. There are a great many American miners here out of employment. Af rica is no place lor a tradesman or a laborer. T. R. Brazill. PERSONAL AND LOCAL. Miss Mary Burke visited , Portland last Saturday. Sheriff Watts and wife visited Port- laud lust Sunday. W. II. Dolman took a business four to Portland Tuesday. D. W. Fieeman, a dairyman of Scappoosa, was in town Saturday. Attorney Rice was in Portland last Saturday on professional business. Geo. Brinn returned Saturday even- ng from a few days visit in Vancouver and Portland. The steamer Cascades is busily en gaged in taking rock to the jetty at the mouth of the Columbia. Miss Mamie Dart, who is attending school in Portland, was visiting her parents here luetSulurduy and Sunday. Next Monday is election day in St. Helens, Tuesday is political day, and Weduesday is the day for the conven tion. E. B. McElroy, state superintend ent of schools was in this place Mon day, consulting with Hon. Geo. W. McBnde.

The tow-boats on the Columbia ap pear to be as busy as ever towing logs to the Portland mills, while nearly all the mills along the Columbia are shut down. How is this? The health of Hon. Geo.W. McBride is greatly improved, and Mr. McBride hopes to soon be able to be out again. His recent attack was the severest one he has endured for several years. . The fisherman are busy mending nets and preparing for the fishing sea son which opens next month. Old veteraus in tbe business predicts good season this year, and are preparing accordingly. A creamery is soon to be started at Hillsboro. That is just what we need in this section of Columbia county, and we feel assured that an enterprise of this kind would be vigorously en couraged by the farmers of the sur rounding country. DKL.KMA. Major J. S. Rinearson left on the Bteamor Dixon last Tuesday for Port land. " The weather, for a few days, haa been extremely fine, and farmers are beginning to plough and plant their crops. Mrs. Meserve returned from HouV ton last Wednesday, where she has been visitiug her daughter. Mrs. A. B. Little. , ... . ,. John Parker has secured a larfre order for charcoal, from one of the canneries on the river, and is busily engaged Bliipping the same. Still the republican club at thisplaoe is progressing and doing good, effect ual work, as is shown by the long list Astoria or to anywhere of members enrolled. - People are be-j ' -ILJ-I ... k ln..l .tn frWrt which this country has been placed through democratic success, and the delusive clamor for a cbunge, and nre now working wilh indefatigable energy to reguin what, ha been lost. By no moans ure I lie republicans alone in the justi'fyable condemnation of tbe party which cannot be otherwise than retponsiblu for the great business de pression, bankruptcy, and ruin which has swept over the vast country, not unlike a Kansas cyclone, bringing poverty and distress to many a happy Klllllllllf WJ reUltU UIU Bimwuuii imv home on account of no employment. It has been the pleasure of your hum ble servant lo meet many old-time democrats of late who do not hesitate to pluce the responsibility where it be longs, and who are outspoken in their intention lo vote ihe republican ticket, believing, now, by . so doing, we will ugain return to prosperity. As to whether this i a true theory or noi, let history speak for itself. One good, honest democrat within our acquain tance, two years ogo was very severe in his denunciation of the republican party and its principles of protection ; indeed, so much so lhat be could not lie induced to attend republican speak ing at all, and was oveijoyeJ at Cleve land's success. But alas! how things have changed, lns'eud of the great prosperity he foresaw, he has since been out of employment. He now is a solid republican, and says he is sorry his oldest boy, who was named Cleve land, was not named Bill McKiuley instead. . Mrs. J. A. Atkins hns been troubled with a cold for several days, but we hope, ere this goes to press, she will again be enjoying good health. We are pleased to note that C. S. Washburn has quite recovered from his illness, and although he is past seventy years of age, he ia enjoying unusually good health. SIAYGER. The revival services at this place are still in progress, and there has been quite a number of conversions. Thee was a dance at C.Snyder's on Saturday night last, and all the par ticipants report having bad an enjoy able time. The Mayger company has com menced (jetting ready for the season, by building new logging roads, and we may look for better tunes soon. We have seen the populist ticket, andwethink.it very appropriate to put Dr. Tryon on for coroner, and hope to see him elected a he will make a good thing out of burying his party after June next. Some miscreant cut and took away about three hundred feet of tho wire cable belonging to the Mayger com pany's logging outfit, and they offer a reward ol fifty dollars for the appre hension and conviction of the thief. We hope to see him caught and pun ished, as it will give others a good lesson.. Our republican club at this place is in a prospering condition, having a memWfhtp of twenty, and if We don't "get there" this time it will not be our fault, for we intend to work day and niKht until the populists are driven Irom our midst. We should all work in union if we expect to accomplish our ends, and that is what we will do. I am a republican and hope to seo all good men in the same boat with me. : St'JHMOMS. ,.: Ill the Circuit Court of the 8ate of Oregon, (or Columbia county. Chai. l Mugele, plaintiff, vs. Geo. 8.
