The Polaris has the invidious dis tinction of being the only paper on the. coast that still flaunts the bloody shirt. In the last issue to hand its editor in giving that sangninary gar ment a whirl, says: "The fact is, that all over the south are evidences to-day as plain as in 18G2 that the lost cause is not given up." And this from one who makes open profession of being a follower of "The Prince of Peace." J i you take an interest in the prosperity of the placo you cannot show more substantial desire to en courage it than by sending a copy of rn t . jiii. iiu;hi.i .-iSToniAX to your friends.

A subscription paper is in circu lation, asking for contributions to a fund to repair the roadway; it is the intention of the council to declare that thoroughfare closed unless re paired, and for that reason it is neces sary that some steps should be taken to provide lor its repair.

A stroll through the city such bright golden days as these is one calculated to impress the beholder with an idea of the progress in the growth of our city. The real estate sales constitute a good illustration of the appreciable rise in values and the consequent desire for investment on the part of all who have money to spare, and none the less is tiiis evi dent in the number of wsw buildings which the grv. ing needs of the placo have made necessary during the pres ent season. Our attention was directed to this fact yesterday morning by the inces sant aiumd of saw and hammer re sounding in ovary quarter of the tnn. The place Feomed alive with busy workers and a visit to the lumber mills showed that the orders fur ma terial come so iiiick and fast that many intended builders are obliged to put off their cun tem plated improve ments till next season. Starting from Hume's cannery, and going west, on Chenamus street, we come to a large building now in course of construction by Mrs. Virginia Kinney, on the Kinney property oppo site Flavcl's warehouse. The lower part of the building will be occupied by Thomas' drug str.re, and by M. W. Gallick's furniture siotv. Across the street is a new building lately finished by Capt. Flavel, which when vacated by Mr. (.Jallick will be used as a ship chandlery establishment. Above FJavel's oilice a new shop is being built by S. D. Adair, to be used as a meat market. Jt would hardly be fair m passing to omit mention of the Occident hotel, which has had several thousand dollars of improvement put on it this season in the way of new fittings and appointments. Farther out is a two story house now being finished, the property of Mrs. House man, the lower part to be used as a store, the upper part as a lodging house; toward the hill, Mr. Havtwig has- in a stone foundation for a new dwelling house, which, judging from the plan, will be a substantial struc ture. Here we turn to Concomly street, where near Trullmgers saw mill a new town of itself is springing up. At the head of the street G. Kawaiuer has put up a neat two-story house, and running thence there is now in process of construction a plank road to the new canneries of the Cutting and Washington companies. A small arm' is employed in driving piles, building wharves and putting up dwel ling houses for the members and workers of those corporation?. Eighteen new houses will be finished here by next spring, and when conve nient communication h established it will be a busy' spot. Retracing our steps we come to the corner or Jeffer son and Concomly streets where P. J. Goodman is putting up a neat dwell ing house, and further down, opposite the Parker House, which 1m been re fitted and otherwise improved, is the now Main street whavf now in process of completion, which alfords every ad vantage for the receipt and stowage of grain. Here as elsewhere, difficulty is experienced in getting piles and build ing material. And now wo come to Squemoqna street which in the matter of fine buildings seems to be taking the lead; across the street from our office is the Odd Fellow's building, an imposing structure when completed. Yesterday the brick wall had risen above the level of tho street, stone coping was being put in place, great iron T plates were being raised by derricks and the clang of the trowel and the cry of "Mort," gave evidence that the work was be ing pushed .ahead as rapidly as pos. siblc. The lower part of the building will be partly occupied by the bank of 1. W. Case; the upper stories will af ford a fine opportunity for profes sional offices. Farther down the street we come to the new building of our enterprising friend, A. M. Johnson. He occupies part of the lower floor with a grocery and ship chandlery store, the other part is leased by Pracl Bros, who, in their lately opened "Empire Store," make such a tempt ing display of ladies' wear as would induce any one to buy. The upper part of this building is occupied by Mr. Johnson as :i sail loft. Next to it stands the Pythian Castle, at present the finest looking building in our city. Its fittings and general appointments reflect credit on the Knights of Pyth ias of this place, and is the best ex ponent of the enterprising and pro gressive spirit of the members of that fraternal association. . The entire lower part is occupied hy C. H. Coop er's "1. X. L." store, whoso show windows and tasteful arrangement of goods attract the attention of every passer-by. Next to Geo. Hume's, Rob ert Carruthers is putting up a substantial-looking building, to bo used as a store, and farther down, oppositoj Frank Fabre's, J. V. Coftinberry is. putting a building which will be uacdj as a store and dwelling house. Wo notice several now residences hillside; among also going up on tlie them those of Mr. Page, and Capt. Kindred; A. M. Twombly, and oth ers, arc also preparing to put up dwelling houses this season, and wo believe could sufficient material be readily procured, one hundred houses would be erected before next Janu ary. On the street above us we never can u-member the names of the streets till they are painted on the corners is a large, three-story hotel, the property of Theo. Uroemser, r.nd above it is one of the neatest churches in the state, the Al. E. church, the dedicatory sermon of which was preached by Rev. H. K. Times, a few Sundays ago. Farther along we como to Main street, where considerable building U going on, the moat con spicuous structure, being the new Presbi'terian church, which is now nearly finished, and will be ready for occupancy in about three weeks; this building is constructed from plans furnished by the Presbyterian Roard of Missions andJis a very pretty church both inside and out. In this hastily written notice of the growth of tho place we have not given as full a list of buildings "put up this season as we would wish. From Tongue Point to Smith's Point, build ings of all kinds are "oing up, par ticularly in upper Astoria, which is, of itselt. assuming tne dimensions ot a citv. One point in connection with this matter of building wo have con sidered of sufficient importance to merit editorial notice, viz: the matter ot insurance, iruc, our city is built of wood, but that one circumstance alone, is no reason for such extraor dinary and exorbitant rates as thoso at present charged. The Astoria Gaslight Co. Mr. E. W. Leonard, who is one of the incorporators of tho above mentioned company the other gen tlemen being Messrs. Case, Wright Page, Xorris and Allen informs us tnat the materials will soon begin to arrive, and work will be begun almost immediately. Ho is in hopes, if the weather continues fine, to make good our slato ment in yestorday's Astorian, that gas would be ready for illuminating purposes by Jan. 1 , 188H, but thinks that by February 1st, at farthest, we can light the burners. Tlie buildings, etc., will be immediately put up. Mr. Leonard ges below on Saturday's sfbainer, and all tho necessary mate rial will be forwarded with tho uk most dispatch. Ono hundred meters will be furnished forthwith, and, as usual, "first come, first served." It is understood that the price of gas will not he over 5 per thousand feet. It is a matter of general congratulation that we can dispense with the danger ous and troublesome system of light ing now in use, and, once having gas works in successful operation, will, coupled with our admirable firo de partment workings, furnish additional reason for demanding a reduction of the present '"high tariff" rates of fire insurance. The ground for buildings has not vet been definitely selected. The works will be on the lino of the beach, about half-way betweon the custom house and upper town. The first meeting of tho company look place yesterday, called by E. W. Leonard, C. H. Page, T. W. Case, and C. S. Wright; tho following stock holders were represented: J. E. Con dit, 200 shares (each share is worth 100); C. S. Wright, 40 shares; 1. W. Case, 20 shares; C. 11. Page, 20 shares; F. C. Norris, 20 shares; A. V. :Mlen, 20 shares; E. W. Leonard, 175 shares. Tho object of meeting was to elect a board of directors for the en suing year. Messrs. Wright, Page, Allen, Case, and Morris were elected as said board. Adjourned. At a sub sequent meeting, held immediately after the adjournment of the stock holders' meeting, C. S. Wright was elected president; I. W. Case, treas urer; C. H. Page. Secretary. Duo provision was made for tho procuring oi a corporate seal, compilation oi Dy- laws, etc., and the meeting adjourned. P. J.
