The Astoria water commission hat
Just purchased 10 11000 bonds from a
New Tork speculator who, fortunate!)
for the city ot Astoria, needed the
money. The bonds were bought Jan
uary 13. - They were Issued in 1895
for a period of .30 years and bore In
terest at the rate of 8 per cent The
commission paid a big premium toi
them, but was very glad to buy up
the bonds even at the rate ot 109.
The recent flurry In stocks In New
Tork made the bonds available. Some
broker who had Invested in Astoria
water bonds probably got Into a pit
full ot clawing bears or goring bulls
As other brokers have been compelled
to do, he was forced to sacrifice some
of his securities, and the water bondi
became available. Their face value at which a full atendance Is desired
was 110,000. but each bond sold at $90 Bautlst 'The Scarlet Thread" will

Practically every dollar of water
money Is drawing Interest, for as soon
as" 'there is any surplus- cash in the
sinking fund it is Invested in county of tnlB
warrants. The total amount or tnij
sinking fund at present Is $27,000, of.
which all but $300 Is Invested. Thfj
commission owns county warrants tc
the value ot $4000. Every bond bought
up by the commission shuts oft Inter

Recurring to the silver issue, Pat
terson said that even If the people of
Colorado realised that the Issue ot

It did not, he said, follow that they
would throw themselves Into tht arms
He referred to Bryan,
"I am glad that there Is one map
in the party Kith power and Influence

ters his protest against surrendering
the party to those who go from one
end of the political teeter to the other

Washington, Feb. 5. Sheppard
(democrat), of Texas, one of the
youngest members In the house, made
a determined and persistent effort to
day to bring about reform In the mat
ter ot the distribution of seeds by the
government, but the bill was left Just
as the committee brought it in, so fat
as seeds for free distribution were
concerned.
This was the only Item In the agri
cultural appropriation bill that aroused
serious discussion, and with a few
minor amendments the bill was passed
by the house without dlvlHlon. Th
house adjourned until Monday.
