ASTORIA, OREGON:
TUESDAY- AUGUST 28,1883
The Standard aays that a Port
land restaurant has been arrested.
They havo a psychonieter in
Salem. His terms are two dollars a
psych.
The General of the Army.
The Griscdalc goes on berth here
in about two "weeks, to load for Liver

C. Leinenweber return ud on
State yesterday from the Knights
Templar conclave which he attended
as a member of Oregon Commandery.
The first pace of the Seattle i
Evening Herald is an excellent ad
vertisement of the community, and is
worth ten times what it cost the ad
vertisers as a general index to that
enterprising city.
Freddie T., infant son of Sir.
and Mrs. D. H. Caswell, died yester
day morning. The funeral will take
place from their residence at twelve
o'clock to-day. The steamer Sum
will leave at one o'clock v. m., for
Clatsop where the body will be interred.
Col. F. J. Parker, editor and
proprietor of the Walla Walla Daily
Statesman arrived on yesterday's
steamer, on his return from the con
clave at San Francisco. He says the
Bay city fairly outdid itself, and was
enthusiastic over the reception the city
accorded its visiters.
J N. P. Johansen, of upper Astoria,
is desirous to close out his stock of
merchandise before he goes east. In
order effectually to dispose of it and
for conveniences of sale, he has re
moved the balance of his stock to E.
C. Holden's auction rooms, where it
will be sold at auction on Thursday
next. Seo ad.
The 'Longshoremen had a big
time at Knappa last Sunday. They
had engaged the Clara Parker, but
Bhe was not on hand, for which the
smoke was to blame. She left Port
land on Saturday evening intending
to be at the dock in good season Sun
day morning, out after setting to Co
lumbia City it was impossible to pro
ceed. The crowd at the wharf was
temporarily disappointed, but tha
managers were equal to the occasion,
and speedily engaged the Fleetwood,
a scow was taken in tow on each side,
and one of the largest excursions that
ever started from Astoria, started for
Knappa. The day passed without
accident. The Astoria band furnished
music.
Were our country to get into trou
ble with foreign foes a million armed
men could be ready for duly, and the
unassuming old man who stood on tho
deck of the Oregon yesterday after
noon, would be their leader. General
Sherman has been seen so much and
interviewed so often that it bores the
old fellow to interview him. As the
vessel came alongside the dock where
we could get a better look at him we
noticed that his age was beginning to
show on him. He has the same
t
twinkle in his eye, the same grim way
ne of cloftinjr his jaw that ho had fifteen
years ago, but the essence of time is
dyeing his hair white and lie doesn't
move so spry as he did. He had on
a plain suit of black, a cloak was
thrown on his shoulders and :i well-
worn Kossuth hat was canted over on
tho side of his head. He looked at
the crowd and they returned tho com
pliment. As soon as the gang plank
was laid, dishing Post No. 14, of the
Grand Army of the Republic filed
on board, and walking up wore
introduced by Capt. -Merry-
man, the post commander. the old
general's face brightened up and we
doubt if any other form of reception
would have given him as much genu
ine pleasure as did that simple little
act of courtesy on the part of the
Post.
The fact that the steamer onlj
.stopped for a short time precluded all
possibility of an extended demon
stration, and when she blew her
whistle and swung seawardtho general
went aft and scrutinized the shore as
though deciding just where he would
station his headquarters in case of
need. It was his last look at the Co
lumbia in an oflicial capacity, as on
the 1st of October he will resign
the position of general of the army,
tho highest militaty position in the
United States, after holding it four
teen years, and turn its weighty re
sponsibilities and heavy emoluments
over to a man who was heard from on
tho Shenandoah a score of years ago
Phil Sheridan.
Dense smoke hung over land and
sea Sunday morning, and the pun
gent odbr of burning fir filled the air.
The heat was oppressive and the sun's
rays burned. From the heights above
the city nothing could be seen but a
uniform expanse of dark blue, shaded
to a gray towards the ocean by the fog
At dusk a breeze blew aside the smoke
and the stars shone, but by eleven the
east wind sent it back again thicker
than ever, and all day yesterday the
sun shone like a ball of burnished
copper, and the streets and houses
were filled with smoke. A gentleman,
for whose opinion we have a high re
gard, says that this weather will con
tinue till September Cth, that on tliat
day rain will begin to fall aud will
continue falling at regular intervals
till February '84.
The First Waybill.?
On Sundaj', Aug. 20, 1883, was is
sued the first way bill on freight from
Astoria over the Northern Pacific
Itailroad. it is Form 13, Waybill No.
1. The consignor is the Astoria Pack
ing Co., the consignees are P. Duff &
Son, Pittsburgh, Pent)., and the freight
specified in the green and purple doc
umcnt, which is worthy of framing, is
COO cases Columbia River salmon, and
25 cases Chilkat salmon from far-off
Alaska.
The freight thus way-billed went to
Portland on the Mountain Queen yes
terday morning, and on the 30th with
other Astoria product will start across
the continent.
Since our latest concerning the
salmon train, A. Booth fc Co. and
xnomes cc lvnowies nave oacn signi
fied their intention of sending 000
cases of salmon. As 300 cases make
a car load of Columbia river salmon,
it will be see that to make up ;
through salmon train of imposing
proportions will not require even or
dinary effort. There will be proba
bly eighteen or twenty cars, and the
outside will have a wealth of gorgeous
imagery.depictcd upon it commensu
rate with the value and importance
of the freight the inside shall con
tain.
From the Walla Walla Union of
ths 22d we learn that the gold spike
that Mr. Yillard will drive on Sept.
8th, will not be allowed to remain,
but "will bo pulled out again." We
were afraid some too enterprising pa
per would give publicity to that fact.
In a confidential letter that Mr. Vil
lard sent us about tho 4th of July,
he said as much, but suggested that
nothing be said about it, and here the
Walla Walla Uuio7i man goes and
gives tho whole thing away. We sin
cerelj hope that no more disclosures
of intention be made till after the
event of the 8th prox. has taken
placo. Such premature announce
menu tend to destroy public con
fidence in. the judgment of newspaper
men.
Erery one has heard that story
about Joe Grimaldi, the great clown.
Joe, when in London, was tiken sick
and consulted the leading physicians,
being an entire stranger to the
faculty. After consultation the Escu
lapians informed Joseph that he was
suffering from melancholia, and the best
thine he could do would be to go to
Astley's and see Grimaldi. "But I am
Grimaldi," said the clown. The doctors
were nonplussed. Yet though every
one has heard that ancient joke illus
trating hew deceptive are appearances,
net all know that last week an Asto
rian whose soul had sickened o'er the
hwvine wave, went to Portland for
medical advice. The doctor recom
mended ."exercise." The patient
looked at him. "Have you ever
been in ABtoriat" ho askod. "N-no,"
said the physician. "Well," said our
ailing friend, "I live in Astoria, in the
second story, and I have to pack
every drop of water we use up those
stairs, and you tap; to me about 'exer
cise.' "

The Hill Case.
In the circuit court yestorday came
up the Hill case on a writ of review.
Sometime last March George Hill was
arrested for having women on the
floor of his saloon. He was sentenced
in the police court to pay a fine of fif
ty dollars and forfeit his license. The
matter was never settled nor is it set
tled now, but J udgo Bennett made
ruling yeBlerday that has an import
ant bearing on this much talked of
ic The Judge in substance ruled
that the police judge had a right un
der tho ordinancc,to fine Hill, but that
he had no rights, to declare his li
cense forfeited; that if that right ex
isted it was a matter fur the city
council to take action in, and that the
power to revoke the hcenso could not
be delegated to the police judge.
From every flag pole yesterday
the stars and stripes fluttered in
honor of General Sherman, the geuer
al of the army, who for the second
time in three years was at Astoria.
There will be :v meeting of the
Astoria Chamber of Commerce at half
past seven o'clock this evening. Spe
cial and important business is on hand
and a full attendance is desirable.

The Astoria Railroad.
CoEXBLrcs, Ok., Aug. 26, 1883.
Ed. Astoria:
The preliminary survey of the As
toria aud Forest Grove Railroad is
rapidly approaching completion, only
about two miles remain to be located
and that will be finished this week.
A brief sketch of the route may be of
interest. The line leaving Astoria
bears up Young's River to Klaskanine
and up the latter to Fish Hawk sum
mit, having at this point an elevation
of 1.2G0 feet, thence to the Xehalem
river, elevation 450 feet, up the Xe
halem 00 miles (the valley rising 4 to
feet per mile) to Castor creek, up j
Castor 2 miles to Gales creek summit,
elevation 1,013 feet, then down Gales i
creek toward Forest Grove.
Twenty miles of the line crossing
ish Hawk summit, and .1 miles on I
Gales creek summit will be heavy
work, the balance of the line can be
easily constructed.
The manner in which this survey
has been pushed through has been
credit to the O. & C. R. R. and
their efficient corps of engineers and
the work has been done most thor
oughly.
The working hours of the party
ere from half-past six in the morn
ing to about 7 at night, and then two
or three hours in tho camp office by
lamp light, and a good deal of extra
work on Sundays.
The farmers on the Nehalem are
very jubilant over the prospect of a
railroad and will do all in their power
hasten the completion of the
line.
The mapping aud final estimating is
being done here, aud we expect to
have tho work ready for delivery in
Portland by the 2d of September, that
will be the end of the preliminary
survey, and then Astoria and -forest
Grove will be watching and waiting
for the final location. How long no
one knowa, but it is scarcely possible
anything will be done until tho last
spike is driven on the Northern Pa
cific. E. C. C.

Ordinance No. 531.
Ed. Astokiax:
In your issue of Aug. 2Cth, you re
fer to the arrest of the Parker House
Occident and machine shops for viola
tion ot above ordinance, and the re
fusal of F. D. Winton, city attorney,
to enter complaint against the pro
prietors. I would like to ask why I
should be any more guilty or liable to
tine under the ordinance than any
one else, and why I should be fined
$50 and costs, and other restaurant
and saloon men onlv 10 and 20 for
the same offense. Jf it was necessary
tor a machine shop to run to re
pair that steamer, it was also
necessary for the men to eat. 1 have
regular boarders working on boats,
wharves,. etc., that eat their meals
between iz and a. ic seems to me
an act of injustice, to compel me to
obey ordinances, that for private and
political reasons are not enforced
against others. It looks like petty
pite work. 2VIy understanding of the
ordinance is, that it applios to all
kinds of business, while the city at
torney s understanding of it seems to
be that it applies only to JefFs restau
rant. Perhaps the city attorney may
bo able to throw some light on the
subject.
Very respectfully,
R. L. Jeffky.
