Gov't Report RoYal ABSOLUTELY PURE mini ahtoria. Astoria, May 13th, 1893. Some time has elapsed since your cor- respondent of this city hat written you about uia'.ters and things pertaining to the Isolated locality; not because there is nothing of interest to write about, but because he Iirs an indistinct remem brance of telling you ot the immediate and certain construction of two impor tant railroads from Astoria to Portland tlat up to this dat have eo far failed to materialize. However as time is the essence of alrMniportant propositions, we must therefore bide our lime and possess our souls in patience, (like the good christian people we are.) and wait till the necessity of these roads become ap parent to others beside ourselves. John Jacob As'or and Ben Holladay have been a long umeueati. John Jacob realized the importance of s his harbor aa a com mercial center, while Ben proposed to build the railroad that would develope the resources ol this rich and vast tin pire.but here we are close upon tbe heels of the departing century in which Lewi c Clark explored the great river of the west, and what have we accomplished. Let aocje one tell that knows more (boot it than the writer. Astoria ha jnat been shaken from center to circumference by the moral earthquake, in which the gambling fra terniy suffered by the enforcement of the laws against gain bling.but tha reform is no', likely to urove a success. The I city council is composed of men of varied j characters -most of whom are incapable , of exacting laws for the successful gov ernment oi such a communty. How such men are chosen ia nrnhtom rtiR- i cult to solve. Experience is not a necjs . sary qualification, but good sound genre 1 is, to constitute a good councilman. 1 lie in 1 nete invasion has been suc cewfnlly repulsed After leaving a nnm ber of her passengers in Portland, The : lanuoe niaJe her escape with ibe re 1 s matnder passing Astoria nnder fall ,Vg, I 'earn.

What language lie hat fonnd fit to n I dont know, and it is indifferent to me, as me most scurrilous paper conld not find any reasonable cause for reflecting upon my character as a man and as a business wan two different beings according to tbe moral code of many people. Xow, the facts in the matter are that I acted as an agent for said paper, the stibecrip tion price being two dollars, one of which was to be my fee. Business proved dull. People seemed to consider thf paper and matter value richly paid by one dollar, an opinion which I valiant! v combated, but in vaiu. I told the edilor, Mr. W. Ihmbar. that undesirable state of preva lent public opinion. As he wanted his paper introduced in as many homes as possible even at the price people valued it, and I could not work for nothing, it was agreed upon that I might sell it at one do.iar the lee of my agency. Yon know it was, Mr Uunbar, and vour edi torial staff knoTs it was Xow ibis was a bad business for you for the time being, but yon had an eye to tbe fntnre of your paptr. In common luttice you most own, Mr Dunbar, that I am without any, the least responsibility in this respect Yonr paper must stand upon its own merits.
