The case of the Herald Publishing Company vs. J. H. D. Oray and oth ers, which yas settled by Circuit Judge MeBrlde on Monday, makes the Week ly Herald one of tho two o clal organs of thg county. Tho law xovernfng the matter of awarding county print ing contracts Specifies that papers submitting bids shall Ale lists of their wbsorlbers. The Herald complied with this feature of the law tarty In the year, but the county court awarded the contract Jointly to the Budget and Dailly News, Thereupon the Herald commenced injunction proceedings, but lost out on the Injunction because It had not taken the proper legal pro cedure. The matter had to go before the circuit court, on appeal from the order of the county court making the two dally paper mentioned the or gans of the county. The decree hand ed down by Judge MeBrlde gives the Herald Judgment tor $23.73 for print ing the proceedings during the months of April, May and June; costs and disbursements, taxed at IS; l.nd denig nnites that, paiwr as one of ths official organs of the county. Ths Budget Al ed a list of Its subscribers, in accord ance with the law, but the Dally News neglected to do so, and It Is probable that, In accordance with" the circuit court order, the Budget and Herald will lie awarded the Joint contract. The case Is of Interest to Oregon pub lishers because It demonstrates that papers mut Ale circulation lists te- fore securing printing controls.

On his first vis- It he had stopped t the farm now owned by B. 8. Woreley. Then It was, figuratively speaking, a barren waste. Mr. Worsley was laughed at by the settlers of the neighborhood when he bought the place and was told that he would rtarve If he depended on the farm for a livelihood. However, start ins; with absolutely no experience, but Intelligent energy, Mr. Worsley has converted hi farm 4nto a veritable Garden of Eden, and Is raising the fin est, berries that grow In, this part of the country. He has a farm now that would be a credit to any community, and ft has proved a good bunineas In ventment.

A .1a ma and th Contra Costa Water Company, i.i, J he Is anxious for the fishermen to take up the proposal. Seals are caught a'.r.ont dally by tlie fiahermm of Astor'a, and if some idea of what a seal is wtrHi can be secured the fish warden will a((UHlnt the engineer with ! Inlor mation. Unfortunately for Mr. Adaim and his plan, seals are not a stable article of trade here, and Just what one would be worth Is a ques tion. However, the fisherman would probably know what It would be wj.th to. deliver one of "(he arJnvils at the local cannery for which ; he Ahes. Any fisherman who has tlw mlsfo: tune to catch a seal is requested to 1 ring it to his cannery and acquaint the fish warden with the fact.

(iciicmr Demand Tlmt the Cur nival Kliull Take iln ; as In ForiiH'r Yfars. ; The regular meeting of the Push Club will be held this evening. Among the matters to be brought before the meeting -will be the report of the com mittee appointed for ihe purpose rf canvassing the regatta situation.-The committee will submit the names of ths gentlemen who win have charge of the regatta, and will also make Its report with reference to the sentiment that exists tn the city and elsewhere as to the holding of the (arnlval. The committee has been nard ' at work for several days and has Inter viewed nearly all the business men of Astoria. In every case the hope was exprened that the regatta would be held this year, and several merchants voluntarily offered ' to dmt!" their subscriptions. Some of toe business men called on were very much opposed to a program that would take the crowd to A. F, C. Park, while oth ers thought it would be advlxable to provide as much amusement as pos sible for the visitors, no matter where they were "taken. The general senti ment was summed up yesterday after noon by". H. Cooper, who said; " The return a, apart from being a good buainen investment, should be encouraged because it brings large crowds to Astoria and results In splendid advertisement. It usually mean $40,000 or $50,000 to the city. snd this Is an Item that Is worth while looking after. If the regatta is not held 8hl year. It will probably r.ever again be held, and for this reason we should alt lend our efforts to make It a socceKs. It is not difficult to under stand that It Is Impossible to please everyone, but he committee tan do its beat and give satisfaction to the majority of the people. ' Some of ihe merchants are not directly benefited by the regatta, but anything that brings mo tey Into the city must be a good thing for everybody, directly or Indirectly." The Push Club committee yesterday called on, those gentlemen who had been selected to manage the regatta, and there was not a single refusal. Some of the gentlemen said they would be unable to devote as much time to the. carnival as they would wish to give it, but all promised to assist In every possible manner. As hast? is eseentlal the regatta committee wUl have not time to beg subscriptions from anyone, and the people of the city should definitely decide on their subscritplons before the committee calls. Almost every committee that ever took hold of a public enterprise has met with the request, " Call again; I have not yet decided how much I shall give." This year Were will be no time for a second call, and mer chants and others will be expected to subscribe without parley. PERSONAL MENTION. Ed. C.
