01 llxz Saittj gslxwism. ASTORIA, OREGON: THURSDAY .77. MAT 3. 1883 Eight thousand coal miners are on a strike at Pittsburg. It will end as all strikes de: an immense amount ot lost time, representing just so much money to the work ers, a sullen holding back, and then to work ajrain. Kallocu's Metropolitan "Tem ple" in San Francisco is no more. The reverend gentleman who led the mob and ran the city is now in seclusion on his Santa Clara ranch, and the curtain falls on one of the most remarkable dramas ever en acted on the stage of human life. Geeen B. Raum, for reasons best known to himself and the president, recently resigned his po sition as commissioner of internal revenue. "SYithin three hours af ter the letter was written there were six applications for the place. We are in receipt of carefully marked copies of Pennsylvania and New York papers which con tain fulsome puffs of Robert Lin coin as a probable presidential candidate. The mention of his name with the hope that he would got the electoral vote of this coast is evidence of incipient insanity on the part of his backers. Dynamite and glycerine may yet prove the poorest kind of ar guments in promoting a reconcili ation with England. Parnell and his colleagues to be successful must change the tactics of enthu siastic and indiscreet subordinates who are making the cause unpop ular in circles that could not or would not be otherwise than friendly if honorable means were employed. Reports from San Francisco are to the effect that in consequence of recent adverse reports concern ing the crop of Oregon and "Wash ington, (reports that were wholly unfounded,) English ship owners had decided to send their vessels to India and other ports, in place of to this northwest coast as original ly intended. This means higher freight rates next fall from the Columbia river. A CORRESPONDENT of :i TuCSOD journal advocates the removal of the Apaches, not to Indian Terri tory, but to some island in the Pa cific, and he calculates the ex penses of removal at MO,000, allowing $30 a head for bring ing them to San Francisco by railroad, and as much more for shipping them to their final destination. lie thinks this would be a paying speculation, because it costs the uovernment about $2,000,000 a year to guard and feed these Indians where they arc. lie does not surest what island should be appropriated for the use of the savages, but one of the Sandwich Island group which has the best appointed volcano might do. The whole lot could be dumped into the crater and cremated. Pointers. About 450 miles of thread are made each day in American mills. Thirty years ago it was all im ported. More northern people have made investments in the south this year than ever before in an' five ' ears. The end of the Atlantic and Pacific track is within thirty miles of the Colorado river and grading is about com nleted. One of the most horrible sur gestions ever made is that the communists should supply the chil- dren of the royal families with toy pistols. Hops are now so dear that they are called brewers' diamonds, and $150,000 worth is not an uncom mon stock on hand at a large brewery. Sunset Cox never tires of telling about the negro's teast: "Here's to General Butler, who, though he has a white skin, bless God he has a black heart" "To add one mile an hour to the speed of an ocean steamship, you must almost double your con sumption of coal," says an old Guard commander. The Moss Pointers (Miss.) place eggs instead of dimes in the con tribution box. They are entered in the church books as lay offerings. A United States mail-wagon got mixed up with a circus proces sion in Philadelphia, yet not one in a thousand of the spectators knew it did not belong there. Governor Butler of Massachu setts is said to have been the only Democratic governor in " the Union who was not invited to the Iroquois Club dinner in Chi cago. Some men are so small, in the most comprehensive sense of the term, that one feels like putting them into a vat of vinegar for the purpose of watching their wiggles through a microscope. The Boise City, I. T., Republi can says a survey has been made for the Oregon Short Line to run through Boise City and that orders have been given to stop further building on the old survey. Two surviving "widows" of a dead San Francisco millionaire are fighting under the probate law for the estate, and one of them comes out with a card in which she says she is unwilling to fight newspa pers, because "the gentlemen re porters are too numerous'and pro lific for one woman." Alas, too true! A Philadelphia paper, being in quest of the longest word in the English language, imagines itself to have found that word in honorigcabilitudinity, which has eleven syllables. Unfortunately for the Philadelphia paper, but fortunately for mankind, there is no such word in the English lan guage. A Turin jeweller has made a tiny boat formed of a single pearl, which shape it assumes in swell and concavity. Its sail is of beaten gold, studded with diamonds, and the binnacle light at its prow is a perfect ruby. An emerald serves as its rudder, and it stands in a slab of ivory. It weighs less than half an ounce; it price is $5, 000. The San Francisco Exchange publishes this meditative parable for the instruction of the peeple: " 'It's all right to say that George Washington never told a lie,1 re marked a tnousuttul mining superintendent. 'I don't say he did, but he lived in a time when that wasn't hard for a man to ac complish. If George were alive now and running my mine and had to write a woekly letter reporting progress, I am inclined to think he'd wrap crape around his little hatchet and put it away where the historians of the future wouldn't be likely to find it.' " The Louisville Courier-Journal admits that Mr. Ingersoll's funeral orations are well enough, but thinks he should try himself on obituary resolutions. The follow ing form is suggested as a starter: "Resolved, That in the loss of our fellow-citizen,StimpkinsStackpole, we recognize the absence of life in the said S. S.; that we do not know whether our fellow-citizen Stack- pole is now in comfortable quarters; that we cannot say whether Stack, is now red-hot or merely heating; that Stack, was always a good fellow; that it is un reasonable tosuppose that any pun ishment will be visited upon Stack.; that we can only gaze vacantly at the doubtful beyond, and con jecture as to the happiness or ex istence of Stack.; that we hope he is whore flowers are blooming, and where pie is perennial; that this is tho way we think matters should be arranged for Stack.; that a copy of these resolutions be sent to all the newspapers, with the request that they be published gratis; that the publisher of these resolutions, being a member of the church, will be amply repaid in the expecta tions he will have of a reward in the next world (il there be any next world) for the dead-head printing he has done in this." 3IAItItLi:i.
