whr he was seated and the endeav

of no avail; so a a last resort they

taken in hand by Professor Norrls and
he showed a willingness and aptitude

Fourth of July Committee Receiving
Great Encouragement in It
Preliminary Work.
Chnlrman Wise and hi committee of
hustlers are on the warpath. They are
cleaning up the musketry and piling
up ammunition; o look out for a rat
tling old-fashioned celebration. Citi
zens all over town are offering sug
gvstlofi, which shows that the peo
pls are taking an Intereat In the mat
ter. It has been suggested that the com
mittee offer a handsome flag to the
town or settlement receiving the larg
est number of votes. In a content, on
the Fourth of July ; some also be
lieve that the Goddess of Liberty
should be elected by ballot, subscrib
er to be permitted to cast one vote
fr each fifty cent subscribed.
The committee la considering the ad
visability of ordering streamer to be
made, which, with the consent of the
owner of steamboat plying between
Astoria and outlying towns, are to be
placed on the flag-pole, where every
body can read the fact that Astoria
will celebrate the Fourth. Such
streamers on the Uatrert and Hassalo
would undoubtedly attract the atten
tion of the people living along the
river and cloth advertisements, taut
ened to either one of the cars or loco
motive of the passenger trains, would
lo similar service with the people along
the line of the railroad. An effort will
be made to have the commanding of
ficers ot Fort Steven and Fort C'anby
bring over i strong detachment of Un
tie Sam's brave defenders, to partici
pate In the monster parade and to
fire the salute. Elaborate floats will
b made one of the features of the
parade.
No other place on the river lias as
yet decided to celebrate, and It only
requires the prompt and cheerful res
ponse of enterpriHlng Aatorlaiis to
rr-akc the celebration a howling suc
cess. The general committee will meet
again tomorrow night to compare notes
ard to lay in a new supply of vim
and enthusiasm.
In the "Note and Comment" column
of yesterday's Oregonlan appeared sev
erai Utile references to tho lack of
Interest In a Fourth of July celebra
tion on the pr.rt of Portland busi
ness men- The Astoria committee,
therefore, very promptly sent an In
vitation to the editor of the Oregonlan,
and, through him, to all the 'people of
the metropolis, to Join Astoria In one
grand festival.
The committee stated that inasmuch
aa Astoria has aaalsted Portland for
Beverul successive seasons in her cele
bration, the -people of this city would
appreciate it very much if their Port
land cousins returned the compliment
by celebrating with the people of Ore
gon's great seapcrt.
The committee stated that the fares
were low and spirits high, and sug
gested that Portland people appoint
an honorary committee to act with the
committee In this city.

Republican Candidates Magnlflclently
Received at Knappa Lost Night.
The people of Knappa turned out In
force lout night to greet the republican
candidates. The Knappa hall was
filled long before the meeting was call

displayed clearly shows where the eo
pl of that place are in this campaign
Professor John C. McCue made the
principal speech of the evening, fol
lowed by Sheriff Llnvllle, Dan J. In
galls and other county candidates. The
tenor of the arguments made was that
in the past few years the republicans
of Clatsop county had not only given
the people a most efficient service but
had, at the same time, greatly reduc
ed the running expenses of the
county.
A grand rally will be held at Chad

THE NEXT VICE-PRESIDENT.
This Is the question now agitating
the minds of our leading politicians,
and while several prominent men have
ben suggested, the final selection will
undoubtedly be the man who will serve
the party Interests to the best ad
vantage. This is also true of medi
cine. When your stomach becomes
weak and you suffer from dyspepsia,
indigestion, constipation and flatulency,
or when In need of a medicine to
build up your system and restore your
appetite, you will make no mistake if
you try that sovereign remedy, Hostet
ter'a Stomach Bitters. It is backed
up by fifty years of cures, and Is rec
ommended by many prominent physi
cians. It is also an excellent medi

can be had ot any druggist. Be sure
to give it a trial.

I v nnai km is tuv n uinuii
chine In fair working coniition. The
i languorous sloth of the seashore proves
very seductive while It lasts, but
! many have decided that the an
' nual outing should provide not only
' radical change of air and surround-
lugs, but also such stimulation of
j lugging energies as will provide brawn
j and vigor for the return to labor. For
this they urge the mountain climb and
ramble, the balsam of the mountain
pines, and the clear, unadulterated
mountain air.
"Li thia ilrection the Shasta Route
now affords a wealth of attractions.
The entire line of road from Ashland
to Redding is studded with charming
and accessible hotels and camps, where
are cheer and comfort and healing at
reasonable cost and where you can
hunt, fish, ride, loaf, or play with
equal facility-
"Or If you look for healing waters,
none better can be found, hot or cold,
than the springs of Ashland, Colestin,
Anderson, Dartlett, Byron and Paso
Robles.
"Before visiting Europe, the people of
the Northwest should see the glories
of Yosemlte valley, and the wondrous
groves of Mariposa and Calaveras;
the Parisians are likely to make In
quires concerning these attracUve re
sorts." Send to Mr. C. H. ilarkham, general
passenger agent, Portland, for new
