NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. . MISCELLANEOUS. ATsISTIOK SALES. 1 9 ASTOPwIA. OREGON: .. C. IRIjAXI Editor. THURSDAY Oct. 18, 1ST? George 31. Pinney. It is not often that the Commercial Herald and Review stirs up a matter in San Francisco without some good "re sults. It says: "Almost every day the people of this city are insulted by the presence on the street of a man whom the law has consigned for safe keeping within the walls of a prison. There is not even the shadow of war rant in law for the action of sheriff Nunan in permitting George M. Pin ney the liberty of the city under charge of a Deputy. Said Pinney has been surrendered by his bondsmen, and it would puzzle the shrewdest barrister to state by what authority Mr. Nunan lias usurped to himself the responsi bility of standing his bail without the formality of giving bonds. The sheriff has no more right to take a prisoner from jail at his request, and grant him all the privileges, than any other citi zen. The statutes are clear on this point, but Mr. Nunan seems to think that they were passed for him, and that he can override them at pleasure by virtue of his official position. Every time that George M. Pinney is per mitted to promenade the city, with or without an accompanying ofliccr, the sheriff is guilty of countenancing an escape, and is impeachable for so do ing, while George M. Pinney is liable to arrest as an escape, and immedi ately remanded to the jail where he properly belongs until released by due process of law. The sherilf and his deputies are salaried officers, and if Mr. Nunan has one that he am spare as Pinney's peripatetic keeper, Mr. Nunan has one deputy too many. Furthermore, George M. Pinney is under indictment by the United States grand jury, and is properly in custody of the United States Marshal, who has surrendered him to the keeping of Nunan for the apparent purpose that he may be most leniently dealt with. We now strenuously protest against any further flaunting of so gross an in sult, and so total a. disregard and con tempt for law on the part of the offi cials specified. " We think that perhaps after this Mr. Pinney will keep his place, or sheriff Nunan will miss his o n, as he should. A Seattle 7iew. The editor of ilie Seattle Intelligencer "braved the dangers of Columbia bar" on his trip to Erisco recently because fare w:ts cheap. If it had not been for the cheap fares he'd not risked his life here, not much; but fare is. cheap and people will rush into danger for about $15 a head. lie lived to reach 'Erisco, and wrote home that he was rather disappointed in the showing of Astoria as a city. "Can rest assured that it is not the chosen site of destiny; all that has been said to the contrary, not withstanding. People will not delib erately choose to settle in any great numbers to live and enjo life in a spot where mountains are piled on mountains, and there is hardly ilat land enough to level a billiard table on, even allowing that some way have a fancy to dwell in a perpetual drizzle of rain In the wheat trade Astoria has hardly realized her anticipations. The grain still ilows up the Wallamet to Portland, and still the little British iron ships, not bigger than some of our three masted schooners, work their way up that classic stream to receive it. They take on what they can carry over St. Helen's bar, and then drop dowii to Astoria to finish loading from lijjhters. But for ail that, the expenses of this route are so great that a great deal of the Oregon export is carried .down to San Francisco by the steam ers, juid is thence shipped acivss the s-ea. San Francisco has an open seat purl, which admits the passage of large vessels without danger or diffi culty. After leaving Astoria we man aged to drop over the "finest bar in t.ne world" without delay, but 011I3 a scratch, for we only got fairly over when it breeze 1 up and blew great guns. By Friday afternoon, though, ihe wind turned in our iavor and Sun- day noon found us along side the in 'FriscG." The Market "street savings bank 1 oan 1 ran Cisco couapseu on me iuui. Ed. W. Stoughton, an old Stnrgis lawyer (tillicum) is booked for the English mission. A new territory (Huron) and a branch mint at Omaha, are talked of in the extra session. The Sioux Indians have been quietly removed, in accordance with the wishes of the Government. Grant says he would rather be President than perform the labor of accepting the hospitality of friends over there. Tee President in his message to the extra session of Congress, saj'B the session was to finish the work of the last session, make an appropria tion for the army, etc. His style sug gets that an appropriation had best be made quietly. The fuss in Turkey is about as bad and barbarous as ever. Gen. La harofT, behind AladjaDagh to Alivia hill and Yesi Hov. telegraphed from Bazardjik begging for assistance, as Mukhtar Pasha was before him with a superior force. Hetiued. We regret to learn that our old friend M. P. Bull, in conse quence of ill health has been compell ed to withdraw from the newspaper business in eastern Oregon. The Sunday Law. The great ma joritr of stores and saloons were closed in Portland last Sunday, the Standard says: "In consequence of xhe recent action taken by some of our leading retail merchants and the fact that men , , , . i . .i i i! have been deputed to watch and report all those who persist in violating the Sabbath law. We emphatically en dorse this move, and those who have taken the matter in hand will sec to its enforcement. It is hardly fair to discriminate in half a dozen cases and permit the others to make money at . . T .. . . -,i their expense. Let it be general, ana give clerks and others an opportunity to rest and enjoy themselves at least one da' in seven." A Sad Misfoktuxe. Hon. Joseph Foster, of King county, Washington territory, who has so long and accept ably represented his constituents in both Houses of the territorial legisla ture, has recently sustained a terrible misfortune. Shortly after leaving home for Portland, says the Dispatch, lie wjis hastily summoned back by a telegram from his wife, informing him of the dangerous illness of his child ren with diptheria, and soon after his return his second oldest child, Kosctta Jane, a bright little girl of 9 years, was earned off" by the fell destroyer, and was buried on Monday last. The two other children also contracted the disease, and to-day the sad news was brought in that they too had perished Charles, the eldest, aged 32, and Emity, aged 4. To add to the misfor tune, Sirs. Foster is also afflicted with the malady, and is not expected to recover. Umatilla County. The East Orego nian of the 13ht, says: "With jnide we look upon the resources of this county. From the state line near Walla Walla for twent3r miles south, till yow strike the Indian reservation, immense fields of wheat have been grown, averaging from 30 to 50 and as high :is 75 bush els to the acre. About Weston the country looks wheat. The like one vast iield of threshers have been busy, but rains have interrupted work, though little loss will accrue to the thrifty farming community still it occasions delay, and time with this class is money, still team after team unloads at our worthy townsmen's mill the golden wheat, which brings the farmer 70 cents, a fair remuneration for his toil, though we wish it was 90 ccntcj and one dollar a bushel which it surely v.oubl be but for the land and water locked country that ire live in. When canals on the Columbia arc open and the railroad is completed, with our soil and climate, we expect to compete with all the wheat growing countries of the world. Wheat to-day at Umatilla is 90 and 95 cents per lnl...! l,t lo. 11- .? .-..,. t.L- .mu uuiui iiuuu Luuxia 11 urn UCUVCr- ing their crops at that place, conse quently the Bycrs-Beagle-Liverinore mill of this place must be run for th'e next six months at her utmost capaci ty.
