Jacob Kamm, a gentleman whoso
reputation for liberality has never

Standanl, hired the steamer LarUnc
and a barge to the committee for $225;
but Kamm, who was absent at tho
time, upon his return demanded 000,
which was refused, and the committee
was forced to miko other arrange
ments. They wero blocked at eveiy

finally secured two steamers and

Jakie for damages.

In the report of the tournament,
the Standard in speaking of the steam
engine contest says: "The cause of
"no time" being called on the Astoria
No. 1, was because of their failure to
attach their nozzle, the water coming
in full force through tho hose before
they wero ready, rendering it impossi
ble to attach it in time. They really
made as good timo on the run as their
competitors, and but for the accident,
would have stood an equal show to
have won the prize." According to
dispatches received here, No. One's
made a splendid run. It will bo re
membered that last Fourth tho same
bobble occurred, and they missed
winning the prize. But it was an As
toria company that won it anyhow,
and they deserve three cheers and a
tiger when they land at tho wharf this
morning.
Some of the San Francisco papers
arc prone in speaking of the Columbia
salmon catch, to hint that "Oregon
papers" make biased statements rela
tive thereto. As one of the "Oregon
papers1 Tub Astoeian has this to
say. When we publish tho catch of
salmon, it is after an examination of
the fish books of several cauueries.
These books are supposed to represent
a correct account of the daily catch.
Where the list shows for instance,
that on a ccrtaiu day 35 boats caught
1040 fish) the presumption is that that
days catch for that cannery, indicates
an average of about 30 fish to the
boat. If our carping S. F. contempo
raries can devise a better way of get
ting at correct results we shall adopt
it with pleasure. In this connection
it may not bo out of place to suggest
Uiat readiness to cast discredit on a
contemporary publication is presump
tive evidence that the fault finding
newspaper is not above suspicion
itself.
THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP'.
HANG OUT YOUR BANNERS.
And Give the Boya a "Welcome.
Our delegation arrives on tho Wide.
West, this morning. They come
crowned with victory and deserve a
reception. Rescue No. 2 has won tho
first prize at tho tournament and has
been awarded the championship of tho
state The department will parade
and meet them at the dock to welcome
and congratulate them. Astoria No.
One's team did wvll too, and it is not
their fault that they didn't win Grst
money. Ihe Astoria J? ire Depart
ment has demonstrated that its claim
to superiority is not an idle one and
the boys should have an ovation upon
their arrival. We don't have holi
days enough, and no matter how
"busy" you are this morning let
things run themselves for a few hours
and give our firemen a hearty wel

Since the above tvas in typo the

Not Just.
Tho great demand for timber land
presents a good many anomalous
features. Many who are looking up
'timber claims," while they comply
with the letter of tho law are break
ing the law in purpose and intent. A
man should not take up a timber
claim to sell his right to another at
an advance of a few hundred dollars.
Leaving out of the question the fact
that ho is selling his birthright for a
mes3 cf pottage, it is manifest that lie
makes himself a party to fraud by
such unwairantablo action. There
will be trouble in this direction yet,
and while the tendency is to be de
plored, yet it is but just that at least
passing comment be made upon this
fashion of filing on land and tho
turning it over for coin to another, a
fashion which is becoming too general
for public good.
Finding of "Walter Folil's Body.
Mr. J. W. Ilumo, of this city has
received a letter from the Quinault
reservation, dated June 10th 1883,
from which we extract the follewing:
"We picked up a drowned man
last Friday, and there is no doubt but
that it is Walter Pohl, who was
drowned from the riuncer. You had
better inform Capt. Bochau. This
man has been drowned about ten days;
he had on a navy blue shirt, buttons
on each side, blue overalls, red under
clothing, and a small belt around his
waist. His hair was kiud of brown,
and ho had a very small mustache.
His face was bruised, but there is no
doubt that it is him."

Tho Astoria Gaslight Company
"Let there be light" has been the
prevailing rule, according to Genesis
since the creation of the world. The
mode of lighting varies with the de
mand of tho consumer. Tho candlo
fish supply light to the Alaska Indian,
nut oil to our Chinese friends, can
dles to the remote dweHers of our
own race, and tho familiar kerosene
with its attendant accidents and an
noyances had its era of prosperity in
augurated about twenty years ago. Last
January somo of our citizens concluded
the time had come when Astoria
could discard tho ancient system of
lighting by coal oil and advance a
step by using gas for artificial illum
ination. Accordingly a corporation was
formed and a contract made with J.
Elliott Condit, of Philadelphia to
build and place in operation a system
of gas lighting commensurate with the
probable extent of our growing city.
Tha northeast comer of West 5th and
Court street was selected as the most
suitable placo for the erection of the
works, and in the latter part of Feb
ruary grading was begun. Tho work
like all Astoria improvements was
slightly retarded by tho scarcity of
material and supplies, but was pushed
ahead as rapidly as possible, and is
now completed. The plant of tho
company consists of a brick building
25x40 feet-, in which aro two
benches, each with three re
torts, n frame building 50x50
in which is the gas holder, and about
two and one half miles of pipe: 2,500
feet G in., 4,000 feet 4 in., 4,000 feet
3 in and 2.000 feet 2 in. Tho en
tire property is worth 75,000. Tho
work has been done under tho per
sonal supervision of P. E. DeMilio,
of Detroit, Michigau, engineer in
charge. Tho omcers or tho company
are C. S. Wright, President; C. H.
Paire. Secretary; I. W. Case, Treas
urer. It is expected by Monday next
to have the meters all tested and ar
ranged, and the enterprise fairly un
dor way. To expatiate upon tho im
portance and advantage of this new
company to our city is unnecessary.
They propose furnishing gas light of
A, 1 , Quality, and at a price that will
make it a desirablo convenience to
onr citizens. Those who consume any
quantity up to 5 M per month will
be furnished gas at $4.25 per M. Over
that quantity there will be a material
discount.
In Memoriam.
Knappa, June 14, '83.
Ed. Asterian:
For ten weeks past
Mrs. S. M. Kuapp,
Knapp, of this place,
tenderly called
the illness of
mother of A.
familiarly and
" Grandmother
Knapp," caused a sad and subdued
feeling as it was reportedifrom day to
day, "much the same," "failing con
siderably," and although at the ad
vanced ago of 8G years her presence
among us for eleven years had been
as pleasant and cheerful that she
seemed to have drank from the foun
tain of eternal youth - and sunshine.
A descendent of the stern old Puritan
stock of Connecticut, her religious
ideas were eminently of the orthodox
style, striving to live to the letter
and spirit of tho Uiblo, making her
life a consistent Christian one. Hor
spirit passed "over tho river" tho
morning of Juno 2d, peacefully as
rests tho summer's sun. Tho funeral
was attended by a large concourse of
relatives and friends.
Tho services, conducted by Rev. J.
W. Harms, of Albany, (a former
pastoi) from the words, "Bloised are
tno ueau etc, were very impressive
and interesting.
Tiiousn irono trom our si'ht our
hearts aro filled with "blessed memo
ries" and we shall hope that tho sweet
example of her life may make faith in
goodness strong, and her mantle fall
laden with blessings upon all with
whom she was acquainted.
In mansions of the blast,
Where wondrous beauty stands,
Rest, gentle spirit rest!
Guarded by angel bands.

Ed Asteeian:
Tho spring has passed with 113 with
its usual quiet, except tho scare oc
casioned by our case of scarlet fever,
which, wonderfully, has not spread
and two or three cases of meas'es, a
light form. The early spring was so
dry and hot that our fruit crop will be
nearly a failure, all kinds of garden as
well a3 orchard fruits feeling its effects.
The placo shows marked signs of im
provement everywhere; new houses,
barns and fences, showing th.it our
people have ''come to stay." ntl
why shouldn't they? With a soil that
ranks with tho be3t in Oregon, pro
ducing vegetables and cereals that ri
val California, and growing grasses
tho most succulent in their nature,
making the best of hay which at pres
ent prices is a very lucrative business,
and the prosperity of our new set
tlers proves that there is no basis so
suro as an agricultural mi.-.
Thero aro ten logging camps in the
vicinity doing a thriving business, and
were it not for the fact that the
stomachs of both man and beast must
be filled, which is a great item at the
present orice of provisions, the busi
ness would bo a lucrative one. To
those wishing homes in "the loveliest

3d. They can be so adjusted that the
cone of the lens will come before the
eye, which is very important for distinct
vision.
lib. They will neither confuse the
sight nor cause dizziness by long and
continued use, as is the case with com
mon spectacles of unequal focus.
Gth. They supply the deficiency that
occurs from the flattening of the crys
aline lens and will enable one to see as
well as in youth.
Gth. They are recommended by the
leading opticians of the country, are not
expensive, over a million of them are
now in use.
As the need of glasses does not de
pend on age alone, it is very important
to have the eyes properly tested, and
not fitted by guess.
