Fourth of July committee meet
ing, held in the council cimmlier
Monday evening, the Finance

lected in chsIi, with a prospect of
collecting 100 additional. "
On motion Mr. C. T. T homes
was added to the committee, with
a request to canvas upper Astoriu.
On motion the various commit
tees were requested to he
punctual in preparing estimates
of expenses, outlining plans, etc.,
and to report by their chairmen at
the next meeting to ho held
Thursday evening.
The various committees vJk are
each and all roqucsted to act, with
out further notice are as follews:

In order to make this matter a
success, it is absolutely necessary
that the various committees exert
themselves. And it is hoped that
no gentleman named upon any
one of the committees will be so
lacking in patriotism as to peVmit
himself to refrain from acting. It
was the sense of the meeting that
the publication of these proceed
ings be considered nil the notice
necessary for any member of the
committee. Ami now that the
finance committee have reported,
the various other committees, or if
not each individual member, then
at least the chairman of each com
mittee, report in person at the
meeting to be held Thursday
evening, at the council chamber,
that the order of exercises may be
adopted.
On motion the meeting ad
journed. The Western Union tuleraoli
line was still down yoetordny.
Never put ofl' for the morrow
what you can do to-day, was fully il
lustrated yesterday evening to the
eyes of our reporter, who witnessed a
sawing match between a young Swede
and his bride of throo months. It
appears that a jile, which had no re
gard for its future, had drifted upon
the banks of an upier town claim.
Tho impecunious spouse, who is ptrty
of the first part in this nnrmtive, wit
nessed this stranding, and calling his
willing partner, hastened to take ad
vantage of the wreck, which would

saw was brought into immediate use,
the husband, like all mankind, taking
the highest position the boach afford
ed, while the beautiful bride came
down on her patellae to attend to her
end of the business. After witnessing
the above our reporter concluded
there was no excuse for any young
man to go west and not get married.
The Commercial Reporter man
says it matters little to him what our
opinion is or where expressed; that
wc have become so sour that we are
ever digging away at some one. And
then concludes that "tho pilotage and
towage system must be looked, into,
the sooner the better for all con
cerned;" otc It is not the intention
of The Astokiak to draw invidious
comparisons, nor invoke hostile criti
cism from .1113 source, but from tho
terms of rapture with which the Re
porter man cracks, like an ogg shell,
the pilotage and towage sj'stem, we!
are left standing in awe of him. Per
haps we'd hotter lot him alone, for
fear that ho may prcmaturoly termin
ate tho universe. It was a mere acci
dent that we chanced to see his last

in tho breakers, but the net hung to
it, and they hung to the boat and not;
being towed, tangled as they were in
the nioshos of the net, a great part of
the time. They came to the city on
Monday. The boat and net were also
saved. It is certainly a miraculous!
escape from death.
Referring to the Midden and un
expected return of Mr. Win. Keid, a
Portland paper snys: '-He did not
proceed to Scotland as intended, asj
the narrow saiitre roads had been j
virtually placed in the hands of the
Oregon Railway and Navigation com
pany through the instrumentality of
Mr. J. I). Montgomery, a late con
tractor on the roads. Whether the
loase can hold is seriously questioned,
as there are some considerations that j
require settlement before the final dis- j
posal of the roads. In any event it is
thought by many that the roads will
have to be completed to Portland, as
it would be difficult to break existing
agreements. The public doubtless
knows about as much concerning tho
transfer as it can expect to know for a
tunc.
Though lo3t to sight to memory
dear." Who is there that hns not,
aiiring his or her life, walked quietly
and rcvorontly through the City of
tho Dead, the last resting place where
mortals are laid who have gone to that
bourne from which no traveler ever
yet returned, and seen tli03e words
engraved upon the marble slab erected
over the grave of some one who
might have been beloved by many,
great in the worlds eyes, a benefactor
it may be while living, a friend to the
poor perhaps, and for these or other
reasons, it might be this inscription
was placed over his grave, and yet
who has not &cen just such epitaphs
over a grave, where weeds, instead of
flowers and evergreens are growing.
The slab a broken one, the mime
effaced, and apparently the occupant
of tho tomb forgotten, and in the ;
language of Rip Van Winkle: How
soon we arc forgotten when we are
gone. Those thoughts were brought
to nimd yesterday while passing a
funeral cortege. The whole proces
sion was composed of two horses, a
driver, and all that was left of a man
enclosed in the coHin, in the i-ear on
foot followed a minister andtfour other'
men. This poor unfortunate fisher
man lost his life, in the perils of his
vocation, and deserved a more fitting
tribute of respect. If we care for
them while living, lot us show some
respect for them while dead.
