The demonstration made in this port, yesterday, in the matter of the quick despatch of the American Hawaiian steamship Nebraskan, is en tirely creditable to Astoria, and to the public spirited men who secured the call of. the vessel. She entered port between 8 and 9 o'clock yesterday morning, under the pilotage of Captain Staples of the bar service, docked 100 minutes later at the Can dock; and by the time she was fast a gang of 40 stevedores was busy throwing 15,000 cases of salmon down her hatches and through her cargo doors. By 6 o'clock p. m. she was battened and ready for sea, and under the same pilot, went to the lower harbor to wait for the flood this morning, when she will put to sea at 10 o'clock, just 24 hours in port, characterized all his dealings and marked him as a progressive and public-spirited citizen. A BIT INCONSISTANT. Not always is a man quoted cor rectly in a newspaper, but, assuming, in a general way, that he is, there is a bit of inconsistancy in the reported interview had with Hon. J. C. McCue, of this city and county, in the Port land Telegram of Monday last. That paper says: "While declaring that every man who took the Statement No. 1 pledge should abide by it, Representative elect John McCue, of Astoria, says the Legislature should be organized on party lines. Mr. McCue, who rep resented Clatsop County in the re cent Legislature, has been re-elected to succeed himself, and is a receptive candidate for Speaker of the House." It sounds a little queer (to say the least of it), that Mr. McCue should advise all Statement No. 1 men to abide by their pledge, which means simply that they must elect Geo. E. Chamberlain to the United States cither by stopping my supply or by! cutting prices. After the govern mcnt case against. the trust is settled, I will probably sue the wholesalers for damages. ".Mr. Oilara lived at one time in Astoria, where he was a member of the city council, He was engaged in the butcher business there, and was so popular in his ward that he could not be beaten. As a councilman he attracted considerable attention by his quaint expressions and vigorous stands. He has been in business here but a week. "J. M. Neal, general manager here for the Xineniirc Packing company, is in Portland today, but John Mor gan speaking for the Ninemire cor poration, says that O'Hnra can have all the meat he wants if he will pay cash for it. Mr. Morgan says that O'Hara began business in lloquiatn on a small capital and that the Nine mire company feels that it cannot af- The Hoquiam correspondent of the. for(,' t0 ca"y ,lim pt " cafih oasis, iur, Morgan insists that tnat is the only cause of grievance or dif ference of which he is aware. "This statement of the situation is reiterated by representatives of the Carstens company." HITS BEEF TRUST Pat O'Hara, Former Councilman Here, Doing Things INVOKES FEDERAL INTEREST His Fighting Qualities All Aroused and he Will Take the Issue Through the Courts Combine Will Meet Him on Meat Fight. ADenieen worui, writes tins ot ex- Astorian's tight on the meat trust: "What promises to be one of the most important suits ever filed on Grays Harbor will stortly be institut ed in the United States court for this district, by Pat O'Hara a butcher of this city, against what he terms the "beef trust." He declares that the wholesalers have refused to sell him meat and he will attempt to show that a conspiracy in restraint of trade exists among them. Mr. O.llara was formerly engaged in the butchering business in Aber deen, but recently moved to this city, where he opened a shop. A man named Thompson figured on taking an interest in the business, but chang ed his mind before the shop opened. Thompson, it appears is a meat ped dler. "When O'Hara placed an order with one of the Harbor companies for beef, he says that his order was refused. Later he met the beel mag nates at Hoquiam. He was told he avers, that the wholesalers under stood Thompson was his partner; that the wholesalers were opposed to the peddling of meats, and that they would refuse to sell to any peddler U tiara replied that Ihompson was not his partner. He was then inform ed, so he declares, that his participa tion in the business at Hoquiam made him a competitor of the retail agents of the wholesalers, and that SURE CURE FOR BABY'S ITCH. with no hitch anywhere along the Senate, and then, in the same breath, jne to urge the partisan organization of This means a practical saving of 48 , the Legislature, hours over Portland despatch, with Just how ,?

"Did I cut prices No, indeed; my prices were just the same as those of the trust stores. The trust simply wants no man, not in its employ, to cut into the meat business, and there fore refuses to sell me any meat. I got one small order when I first start ed, but when the trust people met to consider my case they very thorough ly defined my status. "In the meantime, I am buying beef from the farmers. But the supply is limited, and I suppose the trust will try and put me out of business nent questions. It is too essential, too vital, too commanding, to be de precated. Now that Chief Engineer L. C. Rogers, of the Astoria, Seaside & Tillamook Railway line is on the ground, and making preparation for the survey, there is color and sub stance to the project that invites the popular interest and espousal, and we, with all others in the country, hope to see the proposition forge ahead until nothing can stop it. but tell. in what direction he could not Oil of Wintergreen in External Wash Produces Remarkable Results How to Get Prescription.

"After we had been traveling what seemed to be to me three or four hours," the boy continued, "they took me out at a lonely spot where there were five tents in which lived 14 men and about as many woman and two little girls. "They made me carry wood and water and there was some one watch ing me all the time so I could not run away. . "Most of the men were asleep yes terday and I managed to get away from them." The fearful death of John Lind strom, the well known shipbuilder, at Salem, on Tuesday morning early, will fall with a shock upon the whole coast country. The man was known from San Diego to St. ' ,t- Michaels', as a man of high char acter, business attainment, commer cial courage, and active ambition. He was at the fore-front of the shipbuild ing industry on the upper coast, and always endeavoring to expand his in terests and do just a little more in his line. At one time last year As toria had hope of securing his interest here, but lost it, and has regretted it ever since.
