ments had been made, was about to

lant-Grant Canning Company, and

en without leave, or of failure in its
purchase price, which could not be
determined last night. On the Rose

to call up the person desired. In this
way the line should prove very popu
lar and very valuable with the users
of the rural line, as it puts them in
direct and free touch with this city.
.With the use of the rural. lines the
farmer in an isolated district need no
longer feel himself cut off from the
rest of the world. To him the 'phones
are proving a great blessing and a
fine practical benefit. He can learn
the markets in the city, he can call a
physician if necessary, and in a score
of ways he can put the phones to a
use that saves him much delay and
energy,
It is understood that a similar line
may be installed in the John Day dis-.
trict by. Mr. Newton. : ,
That the. Pacific States Company
will prosecute its arrangements for
the new system with all speed in this
city is said by Mr. Newton to be an
assured conclusion. In a day or two
one of the men from the " general
offices in Portland is expected here
to look into the matter of greatly ex
tending the subscription list. It is
planned to have only the single and
two-party lines under the new sys
tem. .Mr Newton, who is quite well
known in Astoria, was in the city
yesterday and he now expects to take
up the matter of a rural line for the
John Day district. Meanwhile there
is every assurance that the Pacific
States Company will grant to Astoria
the kind of a service that it should
have had long ago, and probably by
the first of the year the new service
will be introduced.
' Commander.. Charles F. Pond, U.
S. N commanding the Thirteenth
Liuluhoiise District, embracing the
North Pacific, from the California
line to the out-posts of Alaska, with
his brother, W. E. Pond, his niece
Miss Pond, and a friend, Mis. Les
ter, reached this port yesterday from
a. pleasant cruise up on Pugct Sound,
J on the fine light-house tender Arm
j ria, Captain William E. Gregory
j commanding. The ship herself has
! been nearly over the entire district,
j delivering supplies and making good
i all buoys and channel fixtures that
needed care or replenishing, and has
been three months on the cruise. .
Commandr Pond relieved Comman
der Werlich during the month of
June last, and came from the cruiser
Buffalo, which ship he commanded
for sometime.! He is a very pleas
ant gentleman and deeply-interested
in his new assignment out here. The
present tour of inspection began on
the 3rd of August, and Commander
Pond went only as far as Sitka, re
turning to the lower coast in obe
dience to urgent summons from the
department on other matter of im
portance, but his party went on with
the ship and enjoyed the cruise to
the utmost..
All stations in Southeast Alaska
were visited and as far north as Onn
alaska, all manner of work being done
in behalf of the service from Sitka ;
and Ounalaska, down the coast,
homeward, the Armcria reaching Se
attle again on the 23rd of the pres
ent month. " v
Commander Pond expects the light
house fleet that lately left New, York,
in these waters, on or about the first
of January next; three of the ten
ders have been assigned as follows,
the Manzanita, to this the 13th sta
tion; the Sequoia, to the 12th Cali
fornia, station, and the Kukui, to Hon
olulu and Hawaiian waters. The
three light-ships going to their sev
eral stations as follows: No.- 88, to
the relief of No. 50, off the mouth of
the Columbia; another to the Swift
sure reefs, off Cape lattery; the third
being assigned to relief duty on this
station, and going wheresoever or
dered. Commander Pond reports the dis
trict in perfect order so far as he has
gone, and has reason to believe that
it is generally in prime condition at
all points; but says there is great and
constant call for additional aids to
navigation all along the whole upper
coast, and they are so indisputably
essential, that he believes there will
be a notable access of improvements
everywhere in this field, during the
next few years.
In company with Major Mclndoe,
of the U. S. Engineers, he will short
ly make a trip to Orford, to inspect
conditions down there, with a view to
the installation of a light-house, or a
litrht-shin off that headland; ami
cp
thence to Puget Sound, where the re
cent mis-chance that befel the U. S.
S. Colorado, has moved the Govern
ment to set up new aids to naviga
tion in Puget Sound.
The Armeria will leave up for
Portland at 9 o'clock this morning;
and on the way up, the river will be
carefully examined for such needed
rangelights and other sides as may be
required between this port and the
metropolis.

ORGANIZED
OVER A SCORE OF LEADING
DEMOCRATS MET LAST
NIGHT IN SESSION.
About 25 or 30 of the- leading demo
crats of the city met in the common
council chamber last night for the
purpose of organizing for the fall
campaign, and after the session thoe
reported it an interesting and en
thusiastic one.
It was voted to organize a Clatsop
County Bryan Club, and after this
organization was determined upon
officers were elected as follows:
President, R. M. Woodin; treasurer,
B. F. Allen; secretary, James T. Wal
lace. These officers also compromise
the executive committee, and in their
hands will be placed all the active
work of the campaign work.
Headquarters will be secured, and
an effort made to instil all the inter
est and activity into the presidential
campaign that is possible. It is like
ly that some leading speaUrs will
also be asked to "orate and spell bind
the populace, and froih all accounts
of the meeting last night it looks ns
if the democrats will make the Clat
sop and Astoria Republicans wake
up, and "hustle" a bit to preserve the
normal Republican vote.
The meeting , last night , had not
been given any publicity, as it was
desired to first perfect an organiza
tion before the public at large was in
vited to attend the sessions.
