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."
