OPPOSE IMPROVEMENT.
Seventh and Eiihth Street Property
Owners File Remonstrances.
Yesterday morning's Astoria n con
tnined an article relative to the im
provement of Seventh and Eighth street '
over to ioungs bay, in which it stated
that there was still $1,700 due from the ;
property-owner from the improvement
made seven veal ago. A number of
projierty -owner, petitioned for the im
provement of the street, notwithstnnd-!
ing several of the petitioner were plain
till in a suit to enjoin the ity from '
collecting tlie assessments.
Yesterday Jumes Finluyson, V. Boel
ling ami B. I Ward filed a remonstrance
in the auditor's office objecting to the 1
proposed improvement, and notifying
the Common council that they would
right the improvement by every means
known to the law. The reasons given
for objecting to the improvement, that
the cost of improving the street to its
full width would entail an unnecessary
expense on the property-owners; that
there were no sewers on the street,- no
water or gas mainland if the improve
ment is made as contemplated, the street
w ill have to be torn up to put in gas j
and water main and construct sewers.
The rcmonstrators have no objections j
to having the improvement made as cou
tcmplated and advertised by the coun
cil two months ago, which provided for
a temporary improvement through the
center of the street. The indication
are that the improvement will be
abandoned altogether.

Death of John Doe Will Work Hardship
on Future Prey of Police,
veritable John Doe, who lis
The
figured in the police, and Justice courts
for several years, ia no more. Il has
gone to receive hia final reward. Here
after, when a man is arrested and does
not want to give his true name, he will
have to substitute some other name.
County Judge Trencbard yesterday re
ceived official notification , from Super
intendent Calhraith of the state insane
asylum that John Doe, committed from
Clatsop county in February, 18S0, on
the complaint of I. N. Foster, had died
on August 9.
In ISSti, the aforesaid John Doe was
found running at large in the Xehalem
valley, annoying the settlers. He was
religiously inclined and became such a
nuisance that he wa arrested and ex
amined a to his sanity. He refused to
divulge his name and, as usual, he was
committed as Jhon Doe.
