Mr. and Mrs. rniinps accom pany her as far as Portland this morning. That Trip to Bar As an expedient and to avoid, com plete disappointment, in the matter of seeing the great war fleet on its way into the waters of Puget Sound, the proposition that one or more steamers be chartered to take As- torians out and over the Columbia bar on the 9th or 10th of May, when the splendid array is expected in this latitude, is a very pleasurable one, and meets the general desire cthe public; all save as to the cost of the trio. Five dollars seems to strike the ordinary, hard-up citizen as just a bit excessive, and while there would be no lack of patrons at that figure, there are many others, who' feel they must abandon the idea and opportunity, at that rate. Three dollars for the trip and a lunch, seems about the accept able limit. Striving For Honors Astorians are to be treated to an other fine exhibition of literary and forensic work on the part of her lead ing young High School people and their contestants from Baker City, in an elaborate debate at the Astoria theatre on Friday night next. The Astoria team, composed of Miss Birdie Wise, Carl Thomas and Miss Jennie Jeffcrs, will be pitted against Messrs. Frank McCulloch, William Ilcrnsen and Ray Barton, the bright trio sent down from Baker City, to debate the question, "Resolved, That visitor jn a strange town shrubs. We have the seeds THE MORNING ASTOIUAN, ASTORIA, OREGON. the members o'f the Legislature of the State of Oregon should be elected by a system of proportional representa tion." This is the second of the scries of the Inter-State High School debaters, the Astoria team having won the first honor! from the Clat skanic team some weeka ago. No doubt there will be a fine attendance on Friday! and the quality of the youngsters engaged and the pith of the issue surely warrant it. New Business House Duncan A. McLean, of this city, is an over-Sunday visitor at his Astoria lieme, In the course of conversation yesterday Mr. McLean intimated that on May 1st, next, he would associate himself in business with two friends, Messrs, Gray and Percy, of Portland, and at 42 Front street in that metrop olis, in bakers' supplies, confection- cry tools, soda fountains, and sun dries for those lines, and had a fine prospect for success. He will have the abundant good will of his myriad of friends in this city and county, if that will do him any service. The firm-style adopted for the new ven ture is Gray, McLean & Percy. Mr. Gray was once populaly known in this city as one of the,Foard & Stokt. staff.

GEORGIA PENNINGTON E 483 Bond Street THE DAY AFTER, AND ' THE MEN FORTY-DAY ELECTIONEERING AHEAD AND THE ENEMY STILL IN HIDING REPUBLI CAN ALIGNMENT FIXED AND FIRM. There is,talways, the day aftcrl And it is scarcely less interesting than the day itself, or the day before the day! The day after is the day upon which the real eventualities are deter mined, for all they arc worth (0 the men in interest and the public in in terest, and bring the quotas of suc cess and defeat and dubious doubt ing! Politics is an anxiety-breeding pro fession at best; and its masters are no more immune than its neophytes; the element of uncertainty is ever present with its pleasant, tantalizing tang, and would be sorely missed by the old perennials as well as by the eager novitiates. Astoria has been busy for 24 hours discoursing and discussing and ac counting the problems left on her hands by he primary-election that inadvertently invaded the sanctity of Good Friday. But solutions are few, and most of them are discounted. The returns are all in from the 28 precincts of Clatsop; but unhap pily, some half-dozen of them filed no extraneous record of the results, and the certainties of the situation are bound up in the sealed returns that will not be disturbed until tomorrow In most instances the divergencies of the totals known to exist give pal pable ground for conclusive estimates and the nominations in those cases are concerned. Among these are lo cally, the following: J. C. McCue, for Representative, with Messrs. .J. W. Welch and C. A. Leinenweber so closely met, as to require the official count to settle their respective stand ing; John Frye, for County Commis- sioner, long term; and F. H. Moore, same, for short term; J. C. Clintog, for County Clerk; M. R. Pomeroy, for Sheriff; T. S. Cornelius, for As sessor; W. A. Sherman, for County Treasurer; G. F. Parker, for County Surveyor; J. A. Gilbaugh, for CorB- ner; J. W. Branstrator, tor superin tendent of county schools; P. J. Good man, for Justice of the Peace, As toria; and John Sayre, Constable, As toria, each and all regularly chosen as Republican nominees before the Clat sop electorate on the first of June next. While the State vote is still quoted as yielding Cake, of Portland, a heavy lead on the federal senatorship. it is quite within the probabilities that the official vote will be required to fix the issue. Final and authentic counts have been known to reveal radical and unexpected results; tRough in this matter, it is conceded the margin will be fractional if it shall fall to the senior senator at alj. Electioneering will begin in earnest tomorrow; no man knows what the enemy is about; and there has been a startling surfeit of results from his unanticipated antics in the larger af fairs abroad during the past few days that should put every Republican can didate on his metal for the next 43 days of grace and invoke his keenest iTQini WISE Keeps Your CLOTHES Pressed Free of Charge WHO'S Your Clothier? 7 tat. tHw ill w CnrMM IMS If CMlOStBR0.C0.

Erick Mannulla, of this city, was unfortunate in having stolen from him a fine gold watch; a time-piece of value and beauty, which he had carried the better part of 40 years. The theft occurred at the old Occidental cannery, which was then being used as a receiving station for fish, by the C. R. Pi A- for whom Mannulla was working. The watch bore his name deeply engraved in sev eral places and was prized among, his precious possessions. Yesterday, while some workmen were excavat ing on Irving avenue near Thirtieth street, the fine old timekeeper rolled out into view and was soon identified asJMannulIa's, to whom it was re turned at once and most gratefully received. To cap the climax, the happy owner, for the sake of doing something and not that he expected any results unless it were a snapping break, began to wind the watch, and to his astonishment it resumed its old familiar tick, and at last accounts was running along smoothly and with per" feet time. -t c flJP The AVON The "Florsheim" 08 Oxfords are now ready ' Style, Fit and Service. the three essentials to satisfactory footwear are evident in every pair.
