The most conservative per sons are ft tidy to agree that the num-'r ber of dogs In the city exceeds 32. and the officials of the city attribute the failure of dog owners to procure lic enses to the negligence of the pound- muster.

' In ihe county court yesterday a re ministration against the vacation of a portion of the county rood near An drew Young's farm was read ond action will be taken upon It when Ihe report of Ihe viewer is made. F. R. Ollson presented a petition for a license to operate a suloon at Westport und It wiia granted. There was considerable objection made to the granting of the petition, a remonstrance being read which stated that the petition had not been signed by the requisite number and that notice had not been published th necessary number of times. At torneys Noland and Curtis represented the remonstratora and Mr, Gllson was represented by Mr. Allen. The Push club's commit to appointed to Investigate nnd report upon the proposal for the establishment of a st.'amer lino between Astoria and II waco has been given further time to report. Several of the Inieresied par ties arc out of the city nnd will not re turn for some time, but as soon aaprne tlcuble the matter will b taken up.

Clark and Ruchanan, tho experts who have boon working, on the county books, reported that they had completed their labors and that the book were In excellent shape. The report was accepted. It was explained by Attorney Allen that the county would be obliged to cause the court proceedings, to be published In two paper. At present the Rudget only has a contract so the other three local papers will be asked to submit bids before the court adjourns on Feb ruary 7. A dlstreselng accident occurred on the farm of Thomaa Bdsh near Sven sen Monday afternoon that Is feared will result In the death of George, son of Mr. Rush. The young man, In company with his brother William, was cutting down trees some distance from the house when a tree while falling struch young Hush on the head crush ing It and rendering the poor fellow un conscious. William succeeded In ex tricating his unfortunate brother from under the tree, but would not leave him alone to get assistance. He there fore tied hi handkerchief about the neck of the dog and sent the Intelligent animal home. The father of tha boys devlned at once that something had gone wrong with hia son and he hurried to the scene of the accident. The In jured man was brought down on yes terduy' noon train and waa taken to St. Mnry'a hospital where he now I. The chances for hia recovery are very allm, hia head being ' crushed In a frightful manner. He ha not yet re gained consolouaneaa. . Dr.. J. A. Ful ton Is attending the case. Mr. Bush I 25 year of age and unmarried. For sometime past, since the shooting of "Poddy" Lynch, there has been much discussion pro and con as to whether Lynch could or could not prose cute Sklbbe, hi assailant. Many per sons contended that the matter rested solely with Lynch, but this Impression Is a mistaken one. In minor offenses, such as ussault and battery, a cornpro mis or dismissal Is possible through the medium of agreement between the court and complaining witness, but felony, such as Sklbbe Is charged with. cannot be compromised In this man ner. Lyncn can tm made to appear agulnst the young man, or, if he refuse to testify, can be confined for contempt Thu matter of Sklbbe' prosecution rests solely with tha dlstrk't attorney. who, having been elected for the pur pose of maintaining the peace and good ordw of the community, could not well decline to prosecute. This Is not to say, however, that case will not arise wherein prosecution of a felony could not bo dispensed with. Locally little significance was attach ed to ths action of Representative Hume in voting for L. T. Harris. Mr. Hume ha all along been regarded as a Fulton man, and It has been freely predhU'd that he would vote for the Astoria man on taking his seat at Sa lem. However, he cast his first ballot for Mr. Harris. peaker of the house. Harris Is one of the Fulton standards, and Hume's vote for him does not Indi cate that ah error was made In classing him bS a Fulton supporter. It has been repeatedly stated ty The Astor ton's Salem eorrespondent that Mr. Ful ton's supreme effort would be made to day, and that the Impression prevails that Hume waa requested to vote for Harris, that hia change to Fulton at the proper time might serve to add to the sine of the Astorlan's gain. To day's ballot ran reasonably be expected to show a decided gain for Senator Fulton perhnp hi election. If this extwcUtlon is not realised, it can be put down for certain that Mr. Fulton has deferred his coup to a later date The fact that he has not lost a single vote since the balloting was commenc ed Is proof of his strength, and leads to the logical conclusion that he can not be defeated.

Highly li.tcnstliidfMiuflnfrofllic I'iihIi Club Was llchl Yen l'Hlay Evening. The Push club met In regular mitmlim last evening, Frank L. Parker acting as secretary In the absence of H. 8. Lyman, who la slightly 111. The meef Ing'waa devoted largely to revlw of pending matters, but was, nevertheless, a highly Intereslng one. A resolution was offered by President Harrison Allen urging the state legis lature to make the appropriation pro vided for In Senator Johnston's bill for a portage road at Celllo. the amount carried In the bill ItM.OOO. A com mittee consisting of President Allen, R. C. Lee and Frank L.' Parker will draft suitable resolutions and forward them to the members of both houses of the leglKlature. '.: President Alln explained at length the Curnahan road law whlcb ha been reportid favorably by the bouse com mittee. "The bill is the only one of fered that Includes any departure fom the present road laws," Raid Mr. Al len. "While at Salem I talked with many members about the measure, and I learned, to my gratification, that the Astoria Push club is by far the best knon commercial organisation In-the state. All the members appreciate the Interna that the club and Mr. Carna han have taken In the matter of good roads, and they have been free to ac knowledge our good work. The bill has been submitted lo many interested parties, and In Its present form Is an excellent measure. It is regardd with general favor and will. I believe, pasi both houses. "It will be recalled that the Oregon Good Roads asuoclutlon, organized dur ing the fall with much enthusiasm, promised wonders in the way of new road laws. Events have demonstrated that the association Is a hot air organi sation, for It failed utterly to offer a single bill looking to the betterment of road lawg. The vice-president of th association has manifested aome In terest in the Carnahan bill, and at hia suggestion several alterations of value were made. The law, while perhaps not all that we would desire, 1 the forerunner of an entirely satisfactory law two years hence." Th Carnahan bill In Its amended form provides that the county court may usenot to exceed 3 mills of the general fund levy for the building and maintenance of highways and bridges. A general 6-mlll levy is provided for road purposes. The money thus de rived Is to be npiwrtioned by the coun ty court to the several district accord ing to the assessed valuation of each of the districts. The money thus appor tioned for each district Is to be expend' ed by the roadmaster under the direc tion of the county court. The people of a road district are authorised to pe tition the oourt as to the manner (n which the fund shall be expended, but the approval by the court of the plan as set forth in the petition is essential to the carrying out of the wishes of the people of the district. Apart fro.n the general 5-mill levy, each district may make such special levy as the people thereof may deem expedient for the ne?ds of their roads and bridges. Spec ial funds thus derived are to be ex pended, under the direction of the county court, by the county roadmas ter. The bill as originally framed delegat ed to each district pow-er to expend the fund apportioned to It, but, at the rec ommendation of the vice-president of tho Oregan Good Roads association, this feature was amendea and the ex penditure of funds placed In the hands of the county court. The objection to the origin! scheme was that ono dis trict might decide upon a rook road, another district upon a puncheon road and a third district upon an unplunked rond, with the result that the highway would be badly cut up. By giving the court power to expend the money, high ways can be made uniform. An important feature of the b.111 is that It does away with the election of road supervisors, and gives the appoint ment of those officials to the various county courts.' It is realized that the present method leaves open a way to Inject political considerations Into road building, whereas, If the road super visors are appointees of the county courts, there will be harmonious ac tion. The law takes away the time- honored power of the road supervisor, and makes him an assistant to the county roadmaster, under whose di rection he shall work at all times. The bill gives the county court 8 mills for road purposes, and is calcu lated to work wonders in the good roads line In Oregon. Mr. Allen be. lleves the measure will surely pass. FIRE SALE.
