Fresh lard, ol their own inaniifac tuie. at Warren Katon'.s. Two million feet of logs have been diiven down the Xewaukum river the last week, from Winston's lugging camp to Haight'a saw-will, the ma jority of which are cedar logs of the finest kind. The Cowlitz valley country is set tling up fast, and if some assistance were given, in the way of open ing a road to upper Cowlitz, the rich valley would soon become one of the most populous settled districts in Western Washington. Hot. cold, and shower Jiaths at the Occident hair dressing saloon, twentv five cents. The Oregon Improvement Com pany break and seed twelve thousand acres of land near Colfax, in Whitman county, next year. The company will divide these cultivated lands into tracts of various sizes, build houses upon them, and sell them on reason able terms to immigrants. That's the kind of a way to populate the conntry. Seattle P. I. Eastern letter: "Dear sir: Send me two or three copies of your paper; how much farming land in your vi cinity? What is labor worth? I may go out to Oregon in the spring." Ah, indeed. Well, if that's the kind of a man you are, you'd better stay where you are now. A man that? wants us to work for nothing is way off his base. A. W.

P. l-lnfi', of Upper Astoria, will build thirty boats this season, for J'cmth, Leinemvcher. Uniim Packing Co., and others. No, we're not in the personal business very heavy at present. If 3011 want to know who is in town, look at the hotel arrivals, they appear every morning. A Methodist convention, com posed of all churches and Sunda schools of this denomination choosing to be represented, convened in Salem yesterday evening. "Oh, where did ton get that beautiful box of French candy-'" Whv, at Ail ler's, of course, lie nets a tresh supply by every steamer." The hop to be given by the Olym pic Club 111 Liberty Hall to-morrow evening, deserves especial patronage because of the purpose for which the funds aro to be applied, viz: the Olympic gymnasium and athletic rooms. - Wouldn't it ha a good idea to have tlio.se tidal observations renewed.' The observer could always determine the state of the bar in advance. It would not only be a matter f conven ience, but would also tend to save life, especially in the fishing season. Wc send out about :0t extra weeklies this week as sample copies of the kind of a paper we publish in As toria. Tf any uon -.subscriber would liko to get the newsiest paper in the Stale for one year, a paper that pro poses 10 hae an independent opinion on matters and things.. Jet him or her send .j2 00, and he or she'll never re gret it. Those bats ami caps for little fellows are selling rapidly at M. I. Kant' Mer chant Tailor Establishment: no wonder, though, thev are new and nobln shies and very cheap. The Walla Walla Watchman says that a great want which reuiaii s to be filled is "a bevy of girls that will do housework for $12 or Sl." a month." Why, bless you, tho Mongolians here demand $-10 a month, and is for girls; why, such begging and praying and coaxing you never saw to get one for a menth: they're sometimes got for life with less trouble. Mr. ,1. J). Mace, a resident of Chchalis for twenty-nine years, in forms ns that he has l,000 lbs of but ter on board the Emily Stephens, the product of Gnrys Harbor and lieinity for four months. He ships in bulk to thus place and Portland. That country will be wonderfully productive when settled up by immigration. At pres ent, Mr. Mace s.iys they are in it at all crowdetl. Adler's new stoi-J; of goods, now be ing opened, is enormous. To enumerate the stjh-s and vaiietics would le im possible. Take a look at them oiu-clt. Tilde Jessie Applegute. of Ymi cola, hits gone to look after his su.-ttup laud interests. Uncle Jessie as one of the celebrities of Oiegon, has been hard at work for his party for upward of thirl years, and about the only thing, says the Plaindealcr, he has re ceived in remuneration for his servi ces, has been a decided lack of appre ciation from those whom hehasserved and been instrumental in lifting into positions of note. - One hundre I and fifty British and foreign vessels were wrecked during the week ending Oct. loth. The ap proximate value of the lost property is 8,000,000, of which the sum of G,000,000 represents the British losses. Eighty-five vessels, principal ly British, were lost on the coast of the Tinted Kingdom during the gales which occurred just prior to the date mentioned, and 138 persons were re ported lost or missing. Xo wonder that British shipmasters dread no coasts in the world so much as they do their own. Policies in the Northwestern Mar riage Insurance Co. are beiug taken in great numbers. II. .1. Hansen, the agent for this place, repot ts several this. week. Any person desiring a policy should either see Mr. Hansen in persou or ad dress him a postal card at the Astorian post-office. The Idea. What a funny old fellow -Horace Greeley was! Just listen to him: "If you want a town to keep from thriving don't erect any more build ings than you can conveniently occupy yourself. If you should accidentally have an empty building, and any one should want to rent it, ask thiee times the value of it. Demand a Shyloek price fur every spot of ground that God has given vou stewardship over. Turn a cold shoulder to uiorv me- chanic and business m in who seeks to make a homi with you. Look at every new comer with a scowl. Run down the work of new workmen. Go abroad for wares rather than 10 seek to do business in your midst. Fail to advertise, trin any other way to sup port your newspaper, so that the peo ple abroad may not know whether busi ness is going on 111 that town or not. Wrap yourself within yourself with a coat of impervious selfishness. There is no more effectual way to retard the growth of a town than actions like tho?e enumerated.' Did you ever? Messrs. Wieman and Logan went up to the State Agricultural College at Corvallis last Friday, having been appointed students at that institution by C. V. Fulton. A .splendid lot of Eastern Oysters just arrived by the State of California at Tom Smith's Ovster Saloon, Main tivet. At the school liottsa meeting held in Upper Astoria on Monday evening, it was decided to continue school for three months in the now house, prob ably commencing the 14th inst. Messis. Forstner nnd Powell have opened a trail from John Day's river hence, and are of the opinion that if the neighbirrs helped them, they would have little difficulty in making a good wagon load all the way. ft" CSias. Stevens ami Son hae.a stock ot mouldings and moulders tool.s which can be lwmght cheap lor cash to ctoe otu that branch of the business. A logger at Oak Point, named Jerry Hudson, was drowned at that placa yesterday. "Ho was rowing alongside a ship in a small boat when his boat capsized, and the unfortu nute. man sank almost immediately. If it be not true, as Longfellow says, that "into each life some rain must fall,"' the Standard thinks we have a considerable surplus in Oregon fortius purpose of 'equitable adjust metit" and to deal out t t!n-e unfortunate-: who don't et auv. - Kobeit McDonald was ai rested here last night by Special Officer Wel coni of Astoria and Policeman Col i ins on a charge of larceny, committed at Astoria about a week ago. The com plaint upon which the warrant for McDonald's arrest wts based, charges him with entering and robbing a boarding house at that place, fie is alleged to have stolen a number of articles, chiefly wearing apparel. He will be taken to Astoria to-day. O.v yoniaii. (. The steamer 1'TccLwood has-diseon-ti nued her Sunda trip.deeming it more to the interest of the patrons of the boat to leave hereon Mondays. Wednesdays and Fridays, and leau Portland on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, ar riving at 1 '30 1. f., giving passengers abundant time to transact business and return next morning. The St. John Telegraph states th at a proposal has been suggested to utilize the vast water supply of tho extreme north of America by closing the northerly outlet of the valley of the Mackenzie River at the lino of the OSth degree, and thus storing up the water of l,2dO,O00 square miles, to which could he added the water of other large aie.is. A lake would be formed of about JHj(i miles in length by lit Ml miles of an average width, which would cover with one continu ous Hill face the labyiitith of streams and valleys which now occupy tho Mackenzie valley. It would bu a never failing feeder for the Missis sippi, and would connect with Hudson Bay and the great lakes, and als with tho interior of Alaska through the Yukon and itb affluents. From the Standard we learn that J udge Stolt has rendered a decree in the case of the 0. C. II. II. Co. vs. Ben Holladay et al., which was sub submitted nearly a year ago. The suit was brought by the company to recover possession of fourteen blocks of land below the Clarendon Hotel, which were donated to it by Captains Couch and Flanders for depot pur poses, but which had been appropri ated to himself by Holladay when the road passed into his hands and had been deeded by him to his sons Joseph and Ben Jr., the latters wife and others. The decree gives the com pany full possession of the property and damages to the amount of $20,000. This property at the time it was do nated to the company was valued at $10,000 and is now worth probably $150,000. It is understood that the case will be appealed. "Xotire.

It affords pleasure to the creditor, and therefore gratifies our social affection. It pro motes that future confidence which is so interesting to an honest mind. It opens a prospect of being readily supplied with what 3011 want on future occasions. It leaves a consciousness of our virtue; and it is a measure, we know to be right, both in point of justice and sound econ omy . I iiuilly. it is the main support of simple, reputation.
