There were five well-loaded coachee on the noon train from Portland for 8ealde yesterday. The very warm weather at Portland within the last few' days haa compelled those seeking comfort to desert the metropolis. Many Portlanders are In Astoria pre ferring thla climate to that on the coast. The Fourth of July committee did everything In Its power to make the visit of the visitors from The Dalles during the celebration a pleasant one. Astorlans feel very kindly towards tha people of The Dalles and every avail able means was employed to return the courtesies extended on the excursion a few weeks ago. That Astorlans suc ceeded In reciprocating In a satisfactory manner Is evidenced by the following extract from the Tlmes-Mountalneer: "Dalles people who were in Astoria yes terday sp-'Ok In high praise of the courtesies extended them by the Ajio rlans. Every pomlble attention was paid them, and had It not been for the rain, which Interfered with tho outdoor exercises, It would have been a most enjoyable day for the Eastern Oregon visitors to the City by the Sea, C. D, Rogers, the well-known busi ness man of Ilwaco, was in the city yesterday on business. Mr. Rogrs states that the business situation In Ilwaco 'and throughout Pacific county, generally, Is gradually growing better and that the people of that section are very much encouraged over the altua tlon now prevailing. The failure In the run of fish has been greatly disappoint ing but It la hoped, Mr. Rogers says, that nn Improvement will be manifest within the next few days and that should this prove to be the case, Il waco and the contiguous towns and country districts will profit very largely. Logging, however. Is a substantial en terprise In that section and even though the fish refuse to mn in that vicinity, the people of Ilwaco can depend upon a regular and profitable run of busi ness from the neighboring ramps. TRANSVAAL LOSS OF LIFE. Moralists are discussing the terrible loss of life brought about by the Transvaal war. Yet here life Is sacri ficed for a purpose for an honest prin ciple. It were better to preuch ngiinst the needless sacrifice of life. Thou sands of people succumb to ailments which might easily have been check ed In the beginning. Dyspepsia carries off more people than are killed In war. The use of Hostetter's Stomach Hitters would save many lives. Constipation may seem a little thing, but it Invar iably develops into something worse, and the longer It is allowed to run, the harder it Is to cure. The Bitters cures ln.llg.stl"n, constipation, dyspepsia and biliousness, naturally and permanently, 1 without- shocking the system. It Is good for everybody. 1 SVENSEN riOAD TO BE IMPROVED THE COMMISSIONERS ACT District Attorney Instructed to Pre pare Deed Dellcatlnr Rffbt of Wy-Ett Approach to Culla fcy Ltkt Bridge Unsafe. The county commissioner disposed of several matter of Importance yes terday. Probably the most Important buslnesa to come up before the com missioner waa a discussion arising from the propwd Improvement of the county road at Svensen. County Surveyor It C. F. Astbury, submitted to the commissioner the following report; "In accordance with your in'.ruc tior.eI visited Hvens-n on the morning of May 22, to make certain change In the preent county road (known aa the "Svensen landing and township line road"), about two miles south of the landing, where there is a very bad hill and an unnecessary bridge. "In company with B. F. Coffee, A. T. Hill. M. Kl-rnan and M. Kin ney, I proceeded to locate the road, and beg to report that the plat and the notes of the survey, which are here with submitted. Is a very great Im provement, there being practically no bridge required. The creek being only about five feet wide at our crossing, I do not believe the grade, at any point, will exceed six per cent. Mr. Coffee and Mr. Hills, through whose property the chunge waa surveyed, have ex pressed a willingness to grant the right of way. "I commenced the survey from a stake marked "R," which we set on the east side of the present road. The stake wa 1059 feet north and 74 feet w-st from the 4 section corner be tween sections 27 and 34, in T S N, R. f W.. Willamette meridian." The commissioner Instructed th district attorney to prepure a deed dedicating the right of way to the county. Final action will probably be taken by the commlsljaier at their next meeting In August. The following communication was received from Robert A. Abbott, for merly road supervisor for district No. t: j "Pursuant to a letter received from the county Judge In the matter of the each approach to the Cullaby lake bridge, I wish to aay that I went to the said bridge to inspect the same and find that the oast approach, as reported, la unsafe. The approach la made out of split puncheons nailed to two string era laid on the ground, which Is a aprln gy or floating marsh, and covered with wator about six montha of the year. The puncheons and stringers frequent ly rise with the water to a distance of to feet and become loose. I repaired the approach last spring, but It la badly broken up again and will always be unsafe for travel. It la now afloat and cannot be repaired In the way It should be until the water goes down. "I posted two notices to warn the people that the approach Is unsafe for travel. I would state that to make a aafe approach to the bridge It will have to be fillel with brush and dirt above high water for three hundred feet In length, at least three feet In height, ten feet In width on top, and fourteen feet on the bottom. "I would state that road district No. 2 Is unable to do the work and keep up the work of repairs necessary In the other pnrta of the dlatrlct "I would recommend that the county build the approach to the east side of the bridge. The approach on the west side la not so long, and a contract wus let last year to fill It. Pa rt of the mo ney was raised by subscription, but the fall rains made '.t necessary for the men to discontinue work." The county court has decided to call for bids . to fill the east approach to the Cullaby lake bridge. The commla Bloners have set the date for receiving bids at 2 p. m. on August 8, at which tlm It Is expected that the contract will be let to the lowest bidder. The requisition of 0. M, McClean, supervisor of road district No 11, for lumber, waa approved. The commissioners then adjourned till August 8th. THE ASTORIAN'S TELEGRAPH. The Astorlan kicked over the traces this morning tn criticising the Bud get's telegraphic report We want to eoy right here that if it was not for the timely arrival of the Portland Tele gram the Astorlan would be horribly devoid of any telegraphic news what ever. The Budget gives its readers the news fourteen hours ahead of any pa per published in Astoria. Astoria Bud get, yesterday afternoon. The last train from Portland for As toria yesterday left Portland at 1 o'clock In the afternoon fully two hours before yesterday's Telegram went to press. After the departure of that train from the Portland Union depot there was no means of transportation between Portland and Astoria until the arrival of the boat late this morning or the train duo here .after 11 o'clock today. The Astorlan, therefore, could receive no copy of the Telegram from which to copy telegraphic news In to day's edition. Let the Astorlan's read ers compare the telegraphic service In today's paper with the volume of news published every day in the week, and It will be found that.the news pub lished this morning is In excels, If anything, of that published on other days during the past week. If any doubt exists aa to the genuineness of this news, let the reader further com pare the Astorlan' report with the Oregorilan's, which will arrive her to day about noon, and the result of these comparison will show the amount of telegraph new the Astorlan receives on a fair average each day and ha to pay for, In competition with news papers which never receive more than a few lines of condensed report, stolen from the Associated Press report bul letins In Portland ar elsewhere, and on many days In succession not a word of any kind from anywhere. As against this class of newspapers, bid ding and competing with the Astorlan for all kinds of business at lens than one-third the rates the Astorlan can afford to charge, let fair-minded news paper reader In Astoria remember that the Astorlan pays out more money In telegraph tolls and dues on account of Its full membership In the Associated Press each month than the total com bined expense Including rent, power, compositors' wages, reporters' salaries, material everything paid by all the other papers published In Aatorla dur ing the same apace of time. SOLDIERS AND THE CEN3US. R'iseburg Review. The last appropriation by. congress to the National Guard will give the Oregon Guardsmen 3,"ja, provided there Is no increase In the congression al representation from this state. In the event of the state gaining a new congressman on the new census, the amount would be increased one-fourth. Heretofore the Oregon National Guard has received only 13.M0, because the appropriation by the government bas been only $400,000. This year It Is M.oOu.OOn. and Oregon sets her propor tionate ahare of the Increase. Thla money la not available for general ex penses, but is only for the purchase of quartermaster's atorea. ordnance and other equipment. The Oregon National Guard now contains lets than 1.SQ0 men. This would be about $6 per man from the government. Added to this Is the $30,000 appropriation by the state, mak ing a total of 326 to each man. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. M. J.
