Perhaps-such asser tions woujd cast an odium on Mr. Bryan's populist running mate, Mr. W atson. Thkrk seems but one tiling for re publican! to do this year, and that is to tote for McKinley. Protection is the only visible evidence of republl canism, and is fully represented by Mciuniey, consequently true protec tiooists have but one alternative in the premises. Candidate Bryan says "it is imma terial whether the sheepgrower re ceives any benefit from a protective taritt or not. Whether he does or does not I am for free wool." It Is reasonable to suppose also that he is for free lumber, free hops, and free trade in general. His speeches in congress in support of the Wilson bill are sufficient proof of this fact. Tuibi is again a movement on foot in this state to have the election law so changed that state elections will be held in November instead of June as at present. This would save the state the expense of the presidential elec tion every four years, as the state and national elections would be held on . the same date, thereby making a large saving to the people, besides the gen eral falling off in business during an extra campaign every four years. In oar opinion this change in the consti tution should be made solely in the in terest of econony. Gotishor Lord has declined to is sue a writ authorizing a special elec tion in Coos county (ur the purpose of electing a representative to the legis lature. At the June election the pop ulist and democratic candidates re ceived the same number of votes, and consequently there was no choice. The governor holds that it is substan tially the duty of the sheriff of the county, under section 2638 of the stat utes, to call a special election, bnt that this section is in conflict with section ll, art.cie o of the constitu tion, which provides for the filling of vacancies in tee legislature by reason of death, resignation, removal from the state, etc. The governor declines to issue the writ, and suggests that the better way would be to bring the natter to the attention of some tribu nal that would be authorized to pass on the validity of the law, and thus determine the duties of the executive in the premises. Until the doctrine enunciated in the demecratio platform at Chicago in lsaz, all parties conceded the consti tutional power .to levy tariff duties with a view, not merely of raising rev enue, bat of giving at least incidental protection, while the republican party, .iouowmg in the grand footprints with which the legislative and administra tive records of this country are dotted, 01 sucn men as Washington, Hamil ton, Jefferson, Monroe, Jackson, Clay, Webster, and other like men whose names are immortal, has held and still holds to the doctrine of the con stitutional power to levy impost du ties on foreign productions which come into direct competition with home productions and thus destroy our industries and reduce the daily pay roll of the wage workers of this country, which are absolutely pro hibitory in their nature and not in tended or expected to raise a single dollar of revenue. Senator Mitchell. a ssloon of their own. Of course this is only hearsay. Very little excite merit is occasioned by the faot that a railroad is actually being constructed between the two largest cities in Ore gon, but the work goes quietly for ward and a complete line of road into Astoria will be reality within the next twelve months. To the people of Astoria it matters little how the con struction is conducted. What they want is rail connection, with the out side world, and they want it as quickly as possible.

The year 1896 has not been without its peculiarities. Usually at this time of year In this part of Oregon meteoro logical conditions ara such that life is made more or less burdensome from tbe fact thtt depressing heat and sraoke are prevalent. It can truly be said that the summer season of the jear 1896 has been an exceptionally pleasant one, an inings being consid ered. While there existed for many weeks a feeling of uneasiness and dis couragement among our farmers, it is pleasing relief to know that there now prevails encouraging conditions among ine producing element. Sum rner rains occurred, and the feeling of luawurny nas oeen replaced by a universal verdict that all conditions are favorable to an increased yield of all products. Not so much damage as usual, either, will be occasioned from forest fires, and all conditions being carefully studied, evince the iaci mat tne summer of 1896 has been pleasant one. Work on the Astoria railroad has had very little effect on business along the route. The contractors seem to realize they have a monopoly of the sitnation and propose to make the best of it, which of course is all right, but rather out of the usual order in railroad building. The contractors not only board their own men, but also bsve their own stores, and in order for a man to retain employment it is said he is required to board at the company boarding bouse and patron ise tbe store. In addition to this a rumor was current a few days ago that the contractors contemplate starting TERNONIA VARIETIES. Harry Wilson is at borne for a few days. Harvest is well advanced and crops are very itur. Some very fine grapes have been grown uua viuiiubjr mis year. Miss Oral Spencer has been elected ganist at the Evangelical cbnrch.
