He has also sent a 60 day option on the old Union house property near the poatofllcc, and says that if a stock company is formed to build the hotel he will subscribe $2,100 of the sWk.

The sentiment of all the people jg now united toward the building of the hotel. Progressive Move. IU very aeldom one see in a city the sire of Astoria, a merchant progressive enough to see the advantage for giving premiums, of large value, as a business drawer. The two hnndomc pianos in one of the win- lows of Herman Wise'a store, are sturdy gifts to offer to his buyers, and many new customers are finding that not only do they get the same value for their money oh on on ordinary occasion, but a chance of securing a prise of big value. To round off thi sspb-ndid offer they are to be given away at a grand ball on the 11th of July. Ii Missing. It is thought that Fred Senberg, who has been conducting a florist shop on Itond street for O.

What One Good Officer Haa Done For Clatsop County and Oregon. One week from tomorrow Sheriff Thomas Linville lays down the badge and burden of office, which he has held through seven and a half years in behalf of "old Clatsop". Eighteen months ap pointment, and three consecutive terms under electoral premise. And just for the sake of ascertaining what a man in that position might accomplish in a period of that duration, a reporter of the Astorian yesterday made definite search of the shrievalty records and finds tint the big sheriff is responsible for the following grist of very practical and valuable service to this county and city: . . Number of insane arretted and dis charged 32 Number of insane arrested and com mitted to the asylum 87 Number arrested and released 119 Number arrested, plead guilty and sentenced 57 Number arrested, stood trial and sentenced 5 Number of arrests, stood trial and acquitted 3 Served time in county jail 51 Paid fine 23 Sent to reform school 8 Released under suspended sentence. . 5 Jumped bail 2 Released on bail 26 Ordered to leave town 7 Witnesses 18 Arrested for outside sheriffs 12 Total 455 It might be stated in connection with two phases of the foregoing record, that in the eight jury trials reported above, one cae involved two defendants, Paddy Lynch and Tobiason, who were jointly tried, thus reducing the trials to seven; and in the matt.-r of the two bail- jumpers scheduled above, one left for feited bonds in the sum of $800, and the other iu the sum of $250, so the state, nor county suffered much by the flight of the parties, and probably made good clear money by the delinquencies. Taken as a whole, the record is im mensely creditable to Mr, Linville, and though there have been Clatsop sheriffs that have made arrests, perhaps 100 in access of the present sheriff's total, there never was a finer summary of work brought to a. practical head of penalty, such as is to his credit here. And he leaves the . office with the additional honor of never having so much as a pen stroke made in derogation of his ac counts as tax collector, and be has handled over one and a half millions of dollars during his incumbency. It goes without saying that the measure of commendation gladly con ceded to Sheriff Linville, the practical and the successful must be computed upon the basis of the willing and able as sistance given by his friend and col league, District Attorney Harrison Allen, whose valuable service is still an asset of the county; but to the departing sheriff the ancient and honorable hall may be given by every citizen of this county, irrespective of politics.
