On motion the council adjourned to meet Saturday evening. Lst Us Have a Pair Nest Season. It has been suggested to in by inoro than one that the article in last week's Avtokian, entitled "Almost a Fair." y. hich was more of a "josh" than anything else, need not bo so if all goi-3 well by next season. Joking apart there is really no reason why we shouldn't have a Clatsop county fair here in 1883. We know of no part of the coast that is richer in natural ex hibits, or shows more of natural re source, in the pleasant summer, when from the heated, interior our Wil lamette friends look longingly toward the sea, such a building as Capt. Flavel's warehouse, or the new Main street wharf, or half-a-dozen other suitable locations that we might name, could be filled wth Astoria manufac tures worth seeing, with Clatsop nud Pacific county products, mid would compare favorably with more preten tious exhibits that axe "fairs"' only in nanus As fi.r the races, though they are an important adjunct in all gatheimgsof that nature, yet the fact that our situation precludes, to a certain extent, any such favorablo exhibition of speed as is customary, yet the money ami attention that is usually given towards those things could be used to at least as good ad vantage iu other directions. As a pecuniar I'enture we see no reason why it would not pa handsomely. The very novelty of it would attract attention; judicious arrangement of purses and prizes and premiums would attract exhibitors from all parts of the state and Washington territoiy. The increased facilities for travel that we of Astoria now enjoy would be a valu able adjunct iu making the entcrpriso an assured success. Now that our legislature has had foresight and common. sense enough to do tho fuir thing in memorializing congress that the Astoria land grant bo declared forfeitcd,it would put now lifo in this region to show people what a magnificent county we have, to provo to them that it is a good placo to come to, to bring their wives and children, and all the loose change and spare cash they can get together, and buy and take up some of the finest land that the sun ever shone on. A fair or exhibition that is rightly managed, and not run in a gouging, make-all-you-can-out-of-eni style is a big advertisement for a place. A start is all that is needed. What do yon think of it, airyhow? A Valuable "Work. We had occasion to refcx- .some time ago to a work entitled "The Commerco and Industries of the Pacific Coast," a large volume replete with informa tion of a full and reliable diameter. Mr. Donovan is now in the city, en gaged in collecting new and complete information respecting our growth as a city, and is also compiling statistics in reference thereto. The book is issued by the well-known publishing house of Bancroft & Co., is the work of years of patient toil, and is un usually freo from those advertising schemes so general in publications of that nature. Everything of na tural or acquired wealth that wo as a people possess, is here treated of in detail, the whole constituting a fund of reliablo infoimation that caunot be duplicated except at equal expense. Mr. Donovan will remain here for two weeks, during which time ho will take pains to see that the now edition of tho work, soon to be issued, will do full justico to Astoria. 3f hhic IieMftenB. MissXoi-a Wilson has returned from San Firancisco, and is now prepared to receive a limited number of pupils in Instrumental music. "Oregon or Bust." Having just returned, says tho JW nr,.,.,',T., from :l trii, over the ...onn- vn;i ", - .- - -... ......... ta;ns tiiroush Burnt river cinyon, the ccuo 0f the railroad wu and as far as Boise City, we feel it to be of interest to chronicle what we saw on the trip. The Ulue mountains havo been the . scene ox war between nature aim heavy forces of men in the employ of the 6, IX. S: X. Co., and Oregon Con st! uciion Co. Up to a few weeks ago j it was a general impression that Ra-j " ker City would be the terminus of the j -O, R. & S. Co., and the Oregon ; .. Short Line, but lately new develop ment! have been marie by both lines. , Men hive been employed to nunreynn this side of Baker City tor the Oregon Short Lnie, and others have been placed iu the Burnt river canyon on the other side of Baker City by the O R. & X. Co. Surveyor.? are at work for the latter company, surveying as fast as possible to Boiae City. A large number of men are also at work in tho canyon grading and making ready for the iron horse. Six mile3 have been graded already, and the graders are about twelve mile.? from Snako river where the Oregon Short Line men are bidding a bridge, one half mile below where the ferry cros ses the river at present. These men came from American Falls where they have just completed a bridge, for thu same company. We rode over a hun dred miles with them and they claimed that they did not know the O. R. & X. Co, had grader- iu Burnt canyon. In a very few months the wonderful working f these two vast corpora tions will be known, but at present all is conjecture. When we went up" the Oregon Short Line men were on this side of Burnt river canyon. When we re turned they wero just entexing tho canyon, prepnratoiy to surveying a route through this great and only passage. Large numbers of men arc now on this " side of Boise City on their way to the Burnt River district, who are in the employ of the Oregon Short Line, while from this end of the O. IX. iv X. Co.'s road, men are be ing forwarded to the same scene. The railroad boys of both companies arc on agreeable terms, and enjoy the ri valry to its fullest extent. The Ore gon short line, it is supposed, is strik ing for Puget sound, while at pres ent, the O. R. fc X. Co. seem to have Boise City in view as a terminus. The Oregon Short Line have three thousand men at work on the road be tween Bellevue and Snake river, and the O. R. & X. Co. have about the same number between Pendleton and the Snake. Monev is no object but xt is the shortest and quickest route that these rival lines arc aftex. The 0. R. & X. Co. are making all possi ble speed with their line across the Blue Mountains; the summit has al ready been reached, and the descent into Grande Ronde Valley is found to be much easier work. From Pendle ton to Meachein, a distance in direct line of only twenty-eight miles, takes fifty-two miles of track." We are of the opinion that w hen the Oregon Short Line "strikes" for airy where on tho seaboard it will bo Astoria. That line must have an ocean terminus, and, taking all things into consideration, where can a more suitable point be found for tho necessary operations of tho company? I'OVEKTYAXD DISTRESS. That poverty which produces tho greatest distress is not of the purse but ot the blood. Deprived of its rich ness it becomes scant ana watery, a condition termed anemia in medical writings. Given this condition, and scrofulous swellings and sores, general and nervous debitity, loss of flesh and appetite, weak lungs, throat disease, spitting of blood and consumption, arc among the common results. If you are a sufferer from thin, poor blood em ploy Dr. Pierces "Golden Medical Discovery," which enriches tho blood and cures these grave affections. It is more nutritive than cod liver oil, and is harmless in any condition of the S3stein, yet powerful to cure. By druggists. fjook Here.
