A train of tan cars of canned
cum, conspicuously lettered to attract
attintion, left Portland, Me., last
Frida' evening on a special fast sched
ule, for Portland and Astoria.
The captain of the bark C. D.
Bfjatd, which was libeled by Henry
Olseu, the pilot, made an application
in the V. S. District Court yesterday
for his vobscI. The court odered
that it be delivered to him on Ins iv
ing stipulation in tho sum of $1.5,000.

Tho P. C. S. S. Co.'s new
steamer, the San Diegv, was launched
at Chester, Pa., last Friday. She
will be completed in about four weeks
when she will leave for her place on
the line of the company. She will be
schooner rigged, 'M6 feet in length
over all, 45 feet 7 inches beam, 22
feet II inches depth of hold, and will
carry 200 first-class passengers. She
is a No. 1 6hip in overy respect. The
siJe-wlieel steamboat Alaska for the
same company, and for service on
tho Columbia river, is nearly com
pleted and will be ready to leave in
about two woeks.
-The tramp steamer Hfwlras had
tribulations enough to fill a volume
when in the Columbia, and now it
seems her troubles have begun afresh.
She left San Francisco for Hongkong
on the-Sth, and when just outside tho
heads the crew mutinied. The vessel
anchored and a consultation was had
with her agents which resulted in tho
discharge of her captain. This being
satisfactory to all hands except Cap
tain Bradley, who distinguished him
self while hore, the vessel proceeded
on her way in charge of a new mas
ter. The Olympia Courier reports that
Judge Wingard has filed his opinion
in the case of the Northern Pacific
Railroad company vs. David T. Marsh
Sheriff of Whitman county. These
ca3ea w ere argued at Olympia after
theadj ournment of the Supreme Court
by Jas. McNaught, attorney for the
railroad compan, and S. C. "Voorheea
attorney for Whitman county. The
question involved was whether under
its charter the railroad company wai
liable for taxes assessed on its right of
way and fixtures placed thereon.
Judge Wingard holds that the right of
way, roadbed, superstructure, depot,
wood sheds, wator tanks etc. , are not
assessable under bee. 2 of the Iorth
Pacific Railroad Company's charter.
This will probablv settle this question
in Washington Territory, there having
been no decision on that point, since
the advent of the Northern Pacific
Railroad into the Territory.
Second and Third Class.
About the 25th, passenger trains
will bo running with regularity on tho
N. P. R. R.. Arrangements for the
running of second-class and emigrant
trains have been particularly made,
and the coaches will bo placed upon
the line immediately following the ar
rival of Yillard at St. Paul. The com
pan' will have second-class ears on all
tho through trains. These cars will
bo made comfortable and convenient
The fare, second-clas3, between New
York and Astoria will be S90, with
stop-over privileges.
The company has made a special
feature of emigrant accommodations,
The cars are large, supplied with a
stove for cooking, sink for washing
dishes, and each passenger is supplied
with a sleeping berth and mattress.
The berths for ladies aro supplied
with curtains. The emigrant fare
will be 50.
The Salmon Train.
The first through fast freight train
eastward over tho N. P. R. R,
started from East Portland last
Saturday evening. There were twen
ty-four cars laden with choice Colum
bia river salmon, much ot which was
packed at Astoria. The train would
have been longer had thero been more
disengaged cars. It created quite
sensation,being handsomely decorated
and conspicuously lettered. Tho first
car was filled with salmon from Sam
Elmore's cannery, the Columbia Can
ninrr Co.. Seaside Packing Co., Pa
cific Union, Union Packing Co
and Jas. WTilliam's cannery. In
the second car J. O. Hanthorn
& Co. had their brand; in tho third
J. W. & Y. Cook of Clifton, in this
county; in the fourth, Geo. T. Myers
of Fisherton and fifth J. G. Megler of
Brookfield. W. T.. had their consign
meuts. Tho Astoria Packing Co.
shipment was in tho sixth and seventh
cars, in tho eighth was the Eureka
Packinc Co's invoice, and tho ninth
held a consignment to V. T. Coleman
& Co., of Now York. A. Booth
Co. sent the tenth, twelfth, and thir
teenth; the fourteenth had another
load from tho Astoria Packing Co
the fifteenth and sixteenth from the
Pacific Union, and so on.

THE ASTORIA RAILROAD.
Some Heavy Figuring.
On the 24th of last April, a com
mittee from the Astoria chamber of
commerce, consisting of I. W. Case,
J. D. Merryrnan, A. Y. Berry. C.
W. "Fulton, and Aug. C. Kinney, met
Mr. Yillard in Portland to confer re-
gardia his probable action in Tefer-
once to the Astoria Forest drove
ailroatu la that interview Mr. Yil-
lard save the history of his efforts and
enterprises and informed all and sun
drv that at the time he went to the
erman bond holders to make them
take a second mortgage of 810,000 a
ite on the southern extension from
Boseburg, that he succeeded in ob
taining their consent to provide
means for the construction of a line to
Astoria; the lino for which tho cor
poration ho represented had secured a
jrant in 1S70, to build the road or
forfeit the grant in 187C, but which
was still unbuilt. He informed the
committee that he could raise the
means to build the road "provided
that upon due examination of the
merits of the Hue, the construction of
it should be advisable." That it was
rly within the past few months just
previous to that interview that he had
been able to raise the money to build
the liiie; that he wonld at once start a
party of engineers and survoyors on
the route, and that he believed that
in sixty days he would be able to give
some deimite answer retraruinc: the
uilding of tho road.
J&The committee returned and in due
time a party of surveyors and engin
eers appeared. Everyone interested
has been anxious all summer to find
something and no one appears to
know Anything about it, except a few
wiseacres in Portland who gravely an
nounce "tne roau will bo limit; tho
road wou't be built," so that cither
way they can say "Diu'nt I tell ycu
About ton days ago tho report of
tiie surveying parly was made up. In
it i3 reported to be embodied full in
formation as to the length of the road
one hundred miles, and its proba
ble cost two million, three hundred
and fifty thousand dollars a fair es
timate, aU things considered.
The impression Mr. Villard con
veyed was that should the value ot
the grant justify the building of the
road it would be built; otherwise it
would'nt. He now writos a letter to
the Chamber of Commerce in which
without saying a single word
about the value of the grant,
which all along seemed to be the
reat questicn with this party of tho
first part, he says that the Oregon and
Transcontinental eompany is- unable
to built the road; that the estimates
are for $50,000 a mile in money, and
750,000 for terminal facilities at As
toria. The plain fact is either one of
two things either Yillard is bluffing,
or he can't raise the money to build
the road. The high figure he sets
upon the cost of construction would
seem to indicate that he was bluffing,
for the veriest tyro iu railroad con
struction knows if he knows anything,
that 830,000 a mile is if anything above
the averane cost of railroad building
and that it is only where long tunnels
and heavy cuts are requisite that the
cost exceeds $40,000. As to the
$750,000 required for terminal facili
ties, that only increases the appear
ance of an effort to bluff, for Mr.
Yillard knows that ample facilities as
far as site, water f rontaco. etc. , are
concerned, could be procured for
nominal figure, and his buildings need
not cost him one-fifth of that amount.
But it is prooable that he cannot
raise tho money, and that is the reason
for his declining to build the road.
All that Mr. Villard need do is to re
linquish his grasp on that fair do
main. If he lacks ability or inclina
tion or both, let .him give others s
chance who will.
Following is that portion of Mr.
Yiilard's letter which refers to the
building of the road:
I regret to say that the ostimatcs of
tho cost of the line in question, now
before me are so lame that it will bo
impossible for tho Oregon and Trans
continental company, as lessee of the
Oregon and California railroad com
pany, to undertake its construction.
According to the engineers figures,
tho co3t will be no less than an aver-
ago of $50,000 per mile in money, not
including the probable cost of proper
terminal facilities at Astoria estimat
ed at $750,000. Under tho existing
mortgages we could not possibly is
sue more than the nominal amount of
$30,000 per mile in bonds on the line,
and there are absolutely no means to
meet tho deficiency at the command of
cither company. We must, therefore
abandon the project.
I was surprised to learn, sometime
since, through the Portland newspa
pers, that responsible parties stand
ready to build the line and turn it
over, ready for operation, in considers
iion of the land "rant from Forest
Grove to Astoria. I take pleasure in
saying that I am ready to do whatever
lies in my power to bring about such
a transaction, or any other, by which
the road could bo constructed.
At the interview to which Mr. Vil
lard refers, in answer to the questio:
would ho be willing to let the grant
go tirovidcd he wouldn't or could n
build the road, ho replied that ho
would offer no objections "person
ally," but the trustees had control of
that matter, and that they would
have to be consulted. There is
good deal of shuffling and equivoca
tion about that uart of it. He fails to
say what he will do with the grant
probably thinking that is not his af
fairs, but something for the other
side to devise. He make3 it plain
enough that tho corporatiou he repre-
sents declines to build the road, and
r that 13 better to too than to
havo the matter as it has been for tho
past seven years.
A Good Idea.
A stoma, Sept. 17, 18S3.
En. Astokian:
Much land has been burnt orer this
summer and if now sown down with
proper grasses would yield abundant I
pasturage. I have written to a
farmer in Washington Co.. who has
:fj v :u A;fr,an,
. . i i r I
Kinaoigras3onournlumueriaulUr
Ins opinions. For pasturage he
recommends a mixture of the fol-1
lowing kinds and amounts per
acre 2 lbs timothy seed, 2 lbs orchard
grass, li 1U3 misqmt, 1 lb Italian rye
grass, 1 lb red top, 1 lb white clover,
and 1 lb Kentucky blue grass. The
object being to have grasses that ma
ture at different periods and absorb
different elements. For hay a mix
ture would not be best.

Eastern Mail.
Eastern papers and letters now find
their way into the Astoria post office
at all times. All tho through mail
from Chicago and eastern cities still
goes to San Francisco and from thero
it is carried north bv the Ceiitral Pa
cific and Oregon Division to Redding,
thence carried by stage to Roseburg,
and from Roseburg taken on the Oro-
;on and California railroad to Port
land and Astoria. So that if a letter

roundabout way notwithstanding the

what you hear as a guest is almost
universally a transgression of hospi

too irood to be buried in the silence
that surrounds the friendship and hos
pitality of a citizen's mansion. While
tho train was coming in Walluia
Junction with the foreign guests on
board, Count Liippo was standing on
the rear plattorm, and conversing
with a gentleman of high rank in th
Prussian army. The latter looked
about him and said:
"Well, this is wonderful. This is a
ereat ride. Three thousand mi.e3
and not a soldier iu sight."

quiet way, "and yon might have also

A prettv good story ia told of Mr.
McCain of the Dallas Itemizer, who is
a minister as well as an editor.
Ho was in Albany recently, and
when he was ready to go home he
asked the landlord of the Revere
House for his bill.
"Two dollars," said the landlord.
"I'm editor of a paper in Dallas:
don't you make a reduction for edit
ors?"
'Yes, certainly: editors half price.'
"Well," said McCain, gazing at the
big dollar in his hand, "don't you
make a reduction for ministers, tool
'Of course: ministers half pneo,
same as editors.
"Xow yon see," continued the min
ister-editor, "I'm a M. E. minister,
and so I thought perhaps
'lou don t owe me anything, raid
the astonished host, "you get right
out of hero,'' and ho reached for tho
inkstaud as McCain disappeared
