NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-The rep resentatives of several unions in this city affiliated with the American Fed eration of Labor, says that they have received copies of a report based on dispatches sent, by officers of unions throughout the country as to the general state of trade. The reports were in most cases encouraging. In some cases wages had been slightly increased and in a large number of cities, especially in the west, it was reported that there were indications of an increasing demand for workers. , For Sale.

For, as the sum I of $12,384 (the sum of the taxable I property for last year, of the five councilmen who voted the thing into official and legal status) is to the sum of $365,469 (the sum of the taxable property of the 105 protestants, for the same period) so is the ratio of opposition to the measure in this city. This is the condition of affairs in this relation now, and it will not change in favor of the bill between this and the first Tuesday in Decern ber next. It is only fair to the general public that these ratios should be known, in order that the relative bearings of the groups at interest may be honest ly and manifest in the resume that will surely, be made, before the issue is laid; and to this end the Morning Astorian today offers the contrast, as follows: As to the council, it will, in all probability, be claimed that the mem bers thereof, stand for all the taxable wealth of the city and should not be segregated, but for once, as a means of balance the weights of responsibil ity in the premise, this presentation is made, with the further statement that the three members of the council who voted against the bill, may be said to have represented the compo site wealth of the city as well as their colleagues, and spoke for it in the same way. The five gentlemen who carried it, and.ther taxable showings, are as follows, George Kahoth, $7443; Jens If. Hansen, $602; C. A. Leinen weler, $505;, W. C. Logan, $3660; H. L. Henderson, $174; total, $12,384. The protestants, who, apparently, had no standing in the matter, other than to have their bill of exceptions filed without comment or active con sideration, and their respective tax able wealth for 1907, are as follows: W.

It is said, in this relation, that steps will be taken at an early day to call a mass meeting of the citizens and property owners of Astoria to consider the whole matter in open conference, untrammeled by any or ganic influences whatever in the community; and it is likely such a demonstration will, of necessity, bring the whole matter within the controlling and effective touch of thase most deeply concerned in the project. nnn,0R GET ARRESTED ...A WORD TO THE WISE...

HIGH GRADE GROCERIES' ROUSING CAMPAIGN TO BE IN STITUTED FOR COLLECTION OF POLL TAXES 'TIS SAID It is likely that an advertisement will.be inserted in the Astoria news papers calling attention to the fact that the annual poll tax is now due and payable, and that there is an alarmingly large list of delinquents. Out of upwards of 4000 men who arc liable to the payment, hardly 10 per cent have paid up, and it is said to be not unlikely that arrests will be made to teach the recalcitrants a lesson. 'Dudley Blount, fhe official poll tax collector, has worked early and late and has "struck" nearly everybody, but in many instances he has met with a stony stare and the marble heart instead of that generous and open-hearted expression of "loose ness" which often characterizes these same men in other financial dealings. The law says the tax must be paid. It provides for arrest and punishment in case of delinquency. At all events new life and vigor are to be put into the campaign of col lecting the poll taxes, and hence if the citizen, if between the ages of 20 and 50 years, sees a small but weighty man approaching him with a kindly but determined expression on his face, he might as well "dig." It's only $3, and the county needs the money. . But if tbe'same reluctance 521 COMMERCIAL STREET PHONE 681 about paying continues, it is said to be probable that some day about 20 warrants will be issued.
