no partisan titles nor assignment, an.f

Company are busy at work on the O.
R. & N. pier, erecting the new store
house of that concern, and will fur

business, about the 15th of May. The

900-foot freight warehouse of the O.
R. & N. and four feet from the slip
where the Major Guy Howard now
berths. The first shipment of, the
new business will reach here close
s
upon the completion of this building;
and it is intimated that if the trad

An Astoria Astortna
Harry Hoefler has lost no faith in
Astoria. He has just received, and is
installing at his beautiful store on
Commercial, a magnificent $4700 soda
fountain, a product of the factories .of
the American Soda Fountain Com
pany," at Boston, Mass. t is 20 feet
long and 12 feet high, and is an ar
tistic blend of massive mahogany,
marble and plateglass; and is being
set up by a factory expert who ac
companied it hither' from the an
Francisco agency of the house. When
in full operation which it probably
will be this evening), it will be one
of the show-features of an already
elegant" refreshment parlor. It is vast
ly creditable to the taste and public
spirit of Mr. Hoefler.
The Bride Not Named
The Astorian is just in receipt of a
note from one of the crew of the
dandy Columbine, the lighthouse
tender, now over at the Sound under-
wwjjiRoing a lot of repairs, saying that on
Saturday last John Corcoran, em
ployed in the engineer's force, was
quietly married and left on Sunday
for a wedding trip to Victoria and
Vancouver, B. C, but the name of
the pretty bride is not mentioned.
The shipmates of Mr. Corcoran were
evidently so interested in his share
of the happy event, that they com
pletely overlooked the fact that there
was a bride at all. An oversight they
will have to account lor to her when
hey meet her. At any rate the As
torian wishes Mr. and Mrs. Corcoran
a happy lifecruise together.
Fares Advanced
Agent Geo. W. Roberts, of the O
R. & N. service in this city, yesterday
confirmed the rumor that the pas
senge,r fares, hence to north shore
points will probably be raised in the
forthcoming schedule to be uttered by
the company on or. about the first of
June. The rate from Astoria to
Megler (the new station on the I. R.
& N. just across the river from this
city), will be SO cents; hence, to II
waco, $1.20 (formerly 75' cents);
hence, to Nahcotta, $1,85; but it is
quite likely the new tariff sheet will
make a reduction of one-third, to one-
half, the one-way fare, on the round
trip rate above quoted. The advance
is charged to the longer haul via the
rail extension from Ilwaco to Meg
lcr. which really increases the dist
ance bv about five miles. Thi9 is
Work For Fisheries Bill
The main committee and sub com
mittees in charge of the program of
public information in behalf of the
Coht :bia River Salmon Protective
Association's bill are busy night and
day, almost, in perfecting the task
and securing ways .to reach the good
will and rational judgment of the
Oregon voters. The latest devicein
hand,, is the return-postal, which
briefly tells the story of the fight to;
savD the industry here and on the
Col'tmhia, and askng for a remittance
to.cover the expense of the campaign.
These will be sent only to those well
known friends of the movement who
can be reached in no other direct and
rapid way, and much good is expected
frmt the :lmi. Other work is afoot
an I lit' re vill be no let-up until the
last ballot tails on the first of June
next. .
A Timely Rebuke
Several ladies of the Womans' Re
lief Corps, of this city, were visiting
Taylor school yesterday in behalf of
their well known interest in the edu
cation of the young people along
lines of loyalty, and intone of the
rooms found that the usual "Salute
to the Flag" required to be recited by
the children each day,,jn the follow
ing terms, ,"I pledge allegiance to my
Flag and to the Republic for which
it stands!. One Nation, indivisible,
and with Liberty and Justice for all:
"was not being used, nor enforced by
the teacher in charge, who claimed
that she was not an American and
knew nothing of the form nor cdj its
place in the curriculum of the school.
A well known ex-tcacber was present,
and repeated it, the children recited
it in concert. The W. R. C ladies,
before they left, made known to the
foreign preceptress the urgency of the
matter, and will probably see to it
that it is not overlooked again.
An Additional Treat
Miss Thompson, one of Astoria's
noted soprano's has consented to
sing in connection with the Greenleaf

PERSONAL MENTION
Mr. and Mrs. Howard Brownell

FRUITLESS SESSION
(Continued from page 1)
date there shall be no license granted
to any person to sell liquor in that
part of the city of Astoria lying east
of the center line of Twenty-second
street therein, nor west of the center
line of Second street in the said city
of Astoria.
The Mayor explained ' the reason
for the call and expressed the hope
that the resolution would pass.
When the resolution was read and
put to the council it was moved and
seconded that it be adopted. Before
voting the discussion opened and
every councilman present made re
marks about it. Mr. Kaboth speaking
first, remonstrated against the pas
sage of an ordinance restricting cer
tain parts of the city. He was fol
lowed by Mr. Stangland .who favored
the resolution and the proposition to
keep all the saloons in the business
part of the city and,said they were
not wanted in the precinct he lived tn.
Mr. Karinen did not favor it as he
believed in fair play and if the resi
dents of any part of the city wanted
saloons it was their privilege to say
so at the polls. Dr. Henderson em
phasized the fact that while he was
returned by the second ward he was
a councilman for the whole of the
CASTOR I A
For Infimts and Children.

" ASTORIA'S RELIABLE CLOTHIER
city of Astoria and as such believed in
the greatest good for the greatest
number and the passage of the reso
lution would attain that end and guard
against an increase of taxation. Mr
Ro.binson who had signed his ap
proval exeprienced a change of heart
and' was sorry he signed the docu
ment He didn't ""give it the serious
consideration such a vital question
deserved when he attached his sig
nature to the paper but he was going
to vote against it and he did. Mr.
Hanson in clarion tones n expressed
his unwavering disapproval of the
measure and' contended that any per
son who was an American or who
nad expressed his intention ot citizen
ship by filing a declaration had the
rights of freedom to the pursuit of
happiness and the protection of the
ample folds of the American flag. He
said he had been in the council 11
years and was sick and tired of the
increasing annoyance of the continual
liquor disturbances that crop up at
every opportune and inopportune oc
casion. Dr. Logan favored the "pas
sage of the resolution and in an im
passioned speech wanted to know
who the Civic Improvement League
was and what they stood for and in
sisted that their petition should be
signed by some members besides the
secretary. He said the whole thing
resolved itself into whether the tax
payers wanted prohibition or not.
That the defeat of this resolution
meant higher taxes and they were
high enough already. The Mayor
went on record as an advocate of the
measure and strongly maintained that
he did not want to see the interests of
the city jeopardized because of pro
hibition. Mr. Wm. Ross, the presi
dent of the " Civic Improvement
League was willing and did sign the
resolutions' of that body and express-
! ed the opinion that the discussion had
I rather, put the League in an unfa
vorable light. He said they. were will-
ing to co-operate with the business
I men orovided certain conditions which
' were decided upon by a joint commit
tee iq the. Chamber of Commerce
rooms were kept inviolate. And want
ed it distinctly understood that the
I League did not take the initiative In
'this matter. Dr. Logan made an
amendment to the resolution, That
no further local option petitions be
filed and it being put was carried by
five vears and two nays. The resolu
tion was then put to the council and
was defeated by four nays and three
yeas. The individual vote was, nays:
