To Mecnre I'olitical Capital from Removed Postmaster. Washington, March 21. Miin interest is manifested at the pont otl'ue department over the action of Witi. Dudley Foulke, of Indi ana, who is sending out inquiries to the presidential postofTices where changes have occurred since the 4th of March, 1889, especially to postmasters who have been re moved. In speaking of tho matter to-day First Assistant Postmaster-Geuer..l Clarkson said : "We are receiving letters from the newly appointed postmasters who have been ad dressed in this way. The inquiries sent out in every instance that I have seen are made with an at tempt to show that the case has been prejudiced and the' change made is assumed to be wrong. It is evidently an effort to get state ments from the removed and dis appointed officeholders for political capital. Some of the letters show an inclination to try to induce new postmasters to offer statements in defense. EJECTING TIIE BOOMERS. A Squad cS' Troops Escorting Them Off of the Strip. Guthrie, I.

The latter returned by a hot tight handeroii Carroll's ribs and an other on his neck. In the third and lourth rounds McAuliile lead out viciously with his right, but Carroll escaped by dodging until tae close ot tne fourtti, when lie received a snarp nip in the ribs. In the Cith round McAuliile was knocked to his knees by a blow on th jaw. In the sixth and seventh rounds McAuliffe led for Carroll's wind, but the hitter escaped punishment by his clever dodging. Tho next four rounds were unim portant, but in the twelvth some terrific slugging took place, and both men were very groggy. In this round Carroll scored a com plete knock down. In the 13th round both men fought bard for a knockout, though they were very tired. During the next fifteen rounds some very hard lighting occurred, but neither seemed to gain any ad vantage over the other. Tho next few rounds were gener ally in McAulilTe's favor. At the close of the :10th round the men, while net strong, were both in fair condition, and there seemed to be every prospect that the fight would last some time louyer. In the :iSth round Carroll eoui mienced to pound away at Mac's face and jaw. Carrll reached his mark more than half a dozen times, and Mack was evidently becoming dazed. He struck out weakly, but Carroll would get away safely and come back ith another jab in Mc AutiuVs face. The next two rounds were tamo.

STATISTICIAN DODGE ON RE- ( m I'UL! it a iiiiiyno ClnM, of Vi.prHlnu lc Ari- eau Agriculture - A Rapidly In rreHxin? Population. W .isiitsoioN. March 21. The prevailing depression in American agriculture is treated by Statistical! Hodge in his Marcli report to the department of agriculture. The prevailing low prices it noted and a feeling of discourage ment in rural circlet- throughout the world is indicated. The main j cause of low prices is referred to as j the inexorable law ot supply and : demand. Corn, w heat and other j staples are cheap because of over production. Immigration has increased tbe population of this country five million in ten years. Hodge says while there is an ex cess of production of a few staples, like wheat, etc., there is un insuf ficient supply of many other nec essary products, which should fur nish profitable employment to ru ral labor. There are imports costing $240,000,HKi per uinum of agricultural product" h:ch should be produced here. These arc ani mals and their products, sugar, fibres, fruits nnd nut-, barley, leaf tobacco and w ines. Another serious eause of depres sion, he says, is the exorbitant share of the farmers' products taken by middlemen and carriers. Speculators depress the prices when farmsrs are full, and boom them when farmers have nothiug to sell'. AMONG THE RAILROADS. (has. B. Colby I.lki ly to I'.eeoane President of the N. l R. It.

Repre sentative Springer, with the bal ance of the minority of the house committee! on teiritoiies, have united in a report in opposition to the bill reported by the majority, providing for the admission of Wyoming as a state. The main objections of tbe minority are that there was no warrant of law for the constitutional couyention, and consequently there was a very in adequate representation iu Hie con vention, among whom were in cluded a number of women. The minority proposed another consti tutional convention, a popular vote on the woman suffrage question and the admission of the new state by presidential proclamation after wards.

We havo just finished the sur vey -of 80 acres of land 4 miles southeast of this city in to 10-acre tracts. This soil is very rich and is peculiarly adapted to fruit grow ing and gardening. Having re cently bought this land for tbe ex press' purpose above named, we will sell for a few days at a bargain. When we say this land is Lrar miles out, we mean four and not six. One acre is worth more of any man's money than ten acres of mountain, gulch and swarnp laud, which is being sold in Astoria and other towns at fabu lous prices. Wallace & Cosick. Astoria Poicters. In keeping both eyes on Astoria, i do not forget that tne property ot- fered by the Oregon Land uom pany is no "job lot," to be sold off at auction, but good, sound prop erty, in which the company have invested their oxn money. Tbe new cable cars run to the corner of Ocean Park addition, making this very desirable property. There is also a steamboat landing and a railroad station adjacent to this ad dition. Parties who desire to make investments in the Ocean Para, ad dition to Astoria will have to apply soon, as it is being closed oat very rapidly and prices advancing.
