I lie following announcement: "Delena

a few more cowa are fresh o they will
have more milk for all the kids ih re
in, there will probably be a joint dia
cuaaion between it and the Be.iver
Falls people party club ou ihe iasues
of the day." The fact i the political
caldron is boiling hi)ih and if the peo
ples puny have got their lit lie sieech
on their tongue' end, ihey will have
the G. O. P. ou their toes" end by June,
for you know the poet says:
Live of congressmen remind us,
We could make our own sublime,
If we'd oulv leave Rome haolpriuta
Where llieir pants and coal-tails
lined,
Ala-1 what wonders might be ac
comoliabed iu this woild were it not
for Hint little word, "ll." Mr. ouon
aooears to kloat a really over the pos-
-itiilily of hia puny ornamenting ihe
G. O P's, Cleveland budge, but we are
led lo wonder what he lUitiKs llie u
il. P. would bn doina all thi lime: H
ia nrelty active sometimes and kicki
woihu than a mule With a briar under
ih saddle. We are phased tu note
thai the cows have been quite "tread
for some lime oust, which has enabled
us to "have more milk for the kida,'
and as a result they are now fully de
vuloped into good sound repubheaus.
The method has proven such a sue
cess that our club list is taking enor
nous uroportions. having readied the
li. iulil of flftvsix inemtieM and more
hi follow. The populists have been so
much alarmed over the rapid growin
of the republican club here, that Ihey
have seen til to challenge it for a joint
debate, which ha been accepted, aud
will take place Sunday, May ZOih, al
the hall. Maybe Hie pop won'i rind
ilium aiieh a lot of kids after all. We
suppose the pops, after testing our

ASTOHIA AND GOBLE R. R.
Money on Hand for Its Immediate
Construction.
The following appeared in ihe Ore-
gonian of Wednesday, and. beara out.
rather plainly, l lie leeuug oi me
moneyed men and the prospects of a
railroad lo Astoria :
Tiie pro-ect of a rBilroad between
Astoria and Portland ia at laat very
bright, Mr. M. Luta, who represents
a French and German syndicate, has
been in Portland and Astoria for Sev
eral days, and he aud his associates
have beeu investigating anu coneiucr
ing the various propositions for a rail
road connecting Astoria wiih ihiscity.
The result is that Mr Lmx has sub
mitted to the people of Asiona a prop
osition to immediately build a road
from Astoria lo Goble.upon condition
that they put iu proper form, for de
livery lo the syndicate represented by
liim, the title to llie land suosunes at
Astoria and Flavcl, heretofore offered
lor Ihe construction of such a road.
Furthermore, the people of Astoria are
r. anil ed to obtain and give ihe full
ami Iree right-of-way from Astoria lo
Goble, aud a contract tor tratno ar
raugeuiente wiih the Northern Pacific
lietween Goble and Portland is al-o lo
he furnished. H is stated Unit if these
conditions are complied with, the road
will lie buill at once, as ihe money
can lie immediately obtained for Ihia
purpose. It is believed that thi offer
a practical solution of ibis much-discussed
problem, ami will secure the
t onal ruction of a railroad that will be
of equal iidvautage m, Astoria and
Porlhiud. It will be Bn independent
hue between the two cities, ami It is
.nii..iail u handle the business of all
r- . - -
roads ou equal term.
