r-0 - L . H.I I I J- !Txc gaitu g.stetom. ASTORIA, OREGON: TUESDAY ATA11CTI 13, 18E3 At Last. At a meeting of the directors of the Oregon and California railroad, held at Portland on the 5th, it was ordered that the annual meeting of the stockholders of that corpora tion hold their annual meeting on the 10th of next month. At that meeting supplementary articles of incorporation will be submitted for consideration and adoption. These supplementary articles embrace a variety of purposes, the most im portant is that which proposes "to construct and equip a railroad and telegraph line with all necessary branches, from a point at or near Forest Grove, in "Washington county, Oregon, to Astoria in Clatsop county, Oregon, to con nect with iis existing railroad, and to operate and maintain the same nnd carry freight and passengers thereon, and receive tolls there for." This is plain enough and to the point. The O. & C, repre sents the corporation that claim what we have so long and persist ently written about The Astoria Land Grant the grant that we have argued should be forfeited unless the corporation that claimed it gave evidence of their intention to make good their promise whereby the obtained the origi nal concession. If what we quote above means anything it means that the company intends to build the road as soon as pos sible. Should that be done there would be no opposition on the part of Astorians. It would open up a magnificent country and put Clatsop county ahead a dozen years. It would bring our coun try a s-hr.re of the immigration that will pour from the east in the next dire4 years, and add much to our material wealth. Looking at the matter in this light we say candid ly we would rathersee the road built than see the urant forfeited. We are for that which is for the best interests of the county. If the company refuse to build the road yet claim the right to hold the grant we want that claim forfeited, but if they say 4tve will build the road" The Astokiax says "wel come; build the load and develop our resources." The company in its intent exhibits shrewd commer cial policy. It can make money by its Astoria road; it will be a matter of mutual benefit. Asto ria is so situated that she need fear no railroad; rather look upon them asadjuncts, as feeders, as attributes of her ultimate prosperity. We are glad to sec the C). &. C con template such action, and congrat ulate them on being alive to their interests. Tin: era of great mining activity 011 this coast seems at an end. AVe hear no more of great strikes and busy men on mountain sides. Vir ginia, Bodie, Eureka, and other places are becoming hamlets, and in California the agricultural pro ducts far exceed in value the out put of the mines. Mining is in its nature feverish and ephemeral work. It is brilliant in its some time result, but it is only a gamble and is not of lasting benefit. Air riculture, the products of the field, farm and stock yard afford sure, though slover means of acquiring a competence, unaccompanied by sharp turns of fortune that affect the miner. TIik New Orleans Times-Demo crat chivalrously admits that Mrs. Lungtry is a charming person, but ventures to say that in any one of the audiences she had in the St. Charles theater there were a. score of women superior to her in every attribute of beauty. "At the Carnival german or. Friday night." it. says, "she was out stripped by dozens of the ladies present." This startling statement recalls the reply of Dr. Franklin, when asked in a Parisian ball-room if he had ever seen anything like it before. "Not since I was weaned," responded the sage. A recent edict against the leading scientists of the world charges them with atheism. This is out of place. That the order of the universe is the order of a Supreme mind working silently and closely through ages, and not spasmodically through centuries, is now as much an accepted idea of civilized man as the theory of gravitation. And this is all that Huxley, Darwin and Tyndall assert. The nearest approach that Tyndall, the greatest living scientist ever made to materialism was in his famous Belfast address of 1874, when, after a glowing peroration concerning immortality he said that these questions "would continue to be discussed by the loftiest minds, long after you and I, like streaks of morning cleud, snail have melted into the minute azure of eternity." The Standard's "Washing-lun 1 correspondent says that when the sundry civil appropriation bill was under consideration M. C. George succeeded in securing the following amendment, relating to an increase of compensation .for making surveys of the public lands in Oregon and Washingten: "Where, for any cause not pro vided by law, in Oregon or Wash ington Territory, the Commission er is unable to get the necessary surveys made, at the rates now provided by law, he ma3' allow a sum not exceeding $12 per linear mile, for standard lines; $10 for township lines, and G for section lines." Says .the losl-lntelliqcncer "We have framed and adopted a constitution. Let the next legis lature elect two senators, and, with Mr. Brents as representativo, let them proceed to Washington and ask of the next congress seats on the floors of their respective branches."
