The Queen is 1jhi this morning.
-The Man Hogarth has arrived
out.
If we all thought alike on every
subject what a funny old world this
v.uld be.
The boss salmon of the season has
been caught in Coos baj', and weighed
forty-eight pounds.
OvcrSS.OOO was cleared by the
state agricultural society at the last
annual Salem horse rare.
Deacon Parkinson, editor and
proprietor of the Carson, Kev., Tri
bune, is in the city takinjj notes.
In pleasant contrast to Portland's
bad smelling municipal situation is the
record of the Astoria city council.
--Several Northwest babies have
been named after Henry Villard up
to date, with some few back counties
to hear from.
-A now style of variety show to
1 owned by a "stock company" with
an itinerant adventuror 3 chief come
dian, is talkod of.
Some of the little fellows who
catch tom-cod at tha dock make from
a dollar to a dollar and a-lmlf a day
selling their strings of fish.
The liojrkHnjdiire is loaded; the
River 2?Uk needs twenty tons to com
plete cargo. The Mi. Washington
started nj stream yesterday.
Mayor Chapman, of Portland,
acknowledges that ho made that con
tract with Besscr, and thinks he has
done nothing to be ashamed of.
Henry Ward Beecher cleared
SI 3,000 on his recent Pacific coast
trip. If he and Iugersoll will agree to
debate, and appear each for a half
hour m joint argument they can make
money.
Receipt is acknowledged of coni
tjontary admission tickets to the
fifth annual exhibition of the Port
laud Mechanic's Fair, beginning at
Portland on October 11th and closing
Oct. 27th.
Navigation on the Columbia in
this season ef fog and smoke.is rather
a ticklish undertaking. Pilots have
to run by compass in many instances,
and all progress is occasionally brought
to a standstill.
The increasing business of the I.
S. N. Co., necessitates more oflica
room, accordingly a new ticket office
lias boon built for the use of the com
pany on Gray's dock; the old office
being used by Capt. Gray.
A Walla Walla job office adver
tises that hereafter bill heads, letter
heads, otc, will bo put up in blocks
for 40 cents a thousand from their old
rates of Si per thousand. Tux Asto-
mx job office doe3 that gratis for all
its customers.
The C. D. Bryant is to bo hove
down and ropaired atPortland. Some
of the men working on her have been
ordered to quit by the 'Longshore
men's Union, on the ground that they
were workinc for S3 per day, instead
of $4 regulation wages.
If there is anything better in tho
eating line than tho baked beans and
brown bread that Frank Elberaon
serves up to his customers on Sunday
morning it nasn t made its appear
ance yet. Pumpkin pie is good, but
those baked beans discount it.
On the 1st of next month W. J,
Barry turns over the charae of the
Astoria Fire Department to Dr. Hicks,
the newly elected cluet engineer.
Barry has made a splendid chief, and
has filled the position with credit.
During the last twelve months there
has been an unusually large number of
fire alarms caused principally by de
fective flues.
The Astoria: has already com
mented upon tho cases of those two
women who are confined in the county
jail. The interests of justice would
be just as well served by a commuta
tion of their sentence, and doubtless
wcro a petition circulated setting forth
the facts, it would receive numerous
signatures and favorable consideration
at the hands of the governor.
Goo. T. Myers, of Fisherton, W
T,,, who has a cannery at Milton, on
the bound, says: "1 never saw
salmon jump more lively than they
do this season, but the catch amounts
to nothing. This time last year I had
3,500 cases packed, against about 100
casc3 this year. The fish keep in deep
water, so that the fishermen cannot
catch them. The same thins occurred
in 1878. I do not think the salmon
that jump ever do come into shallow
water. I have talked with men from
British Columbia, all of whem state
the catch is very light there. The
Colombia river is the only stream so
far reported that has made anything
like a creditable showing this sea
K1."
Pioneers Excursion.
The Oregon Pioneers go on their
excursion next Tuesday. It will bo
an eventful occasion to many who
came across the plains in the first
flush of youth a generation ago, when
as they passed that silent expanse
their shadur pointed westward in
the rays of the morning sun and the
glow of morning youth. Now when
their sun of life is half way down the
western horizon thy retrace their
steps, their shadows pointing eastward
in the sun3et glow of day's decline.
To Clatsop county came some
of the sturdiest of Oregon pioneers;
from Clatsop county return some ef
those who penetrated the wilderness
in the early forties. Some came as
children and return in middle life;
others were to manhood grown, and
wear the honorable badge of hearty
old age. Greater still is the number
of those
"Whose part iu all the pomp that fills
The circuit of the summer hills,
Is, that their graves are green."
And whoEe resting places are scat
tered from Clatsop plains to the scene
of the Whitman massacre. Aniong
the Astorians who contemplate going,
are Mr. and Mrs. A. "Van Duscn, Mr.
and Mrs. Ross. Mr. and Mm. Mun
son, Mrs. Megler, Mra. Wadleigh,
Mrs. Hall, Judgo Callender, W. H.
Gray, John Hobson, Capt. Whitcomb,
H. B. Parker, D. K. Warren, J. F.
Warren, Byron Kimball, and Alex.
Campbell. Several go on this morn
ing's steamer, the remainder, to-morrow.
A Matter of Sell Preservation.
Several dinners whose position enti
tles their opinion to a hearing are of
the opinion that a due regard for the
interests of Columbia river salmon
packers suggests that a Cauners Pro
tective Association bo formed. The
use and purpose of such an institu
tion would be apparent. Many arc
the abuses to which they are subject,
and which could bo remedied. Promi
nent among them is tho matter of
piracy. OntBide establishments, nota
bly in San Francisco have been charg
ed (and the charge has not been de
nied) with putting up rotten fish and
labeling it with a fictitious Columbia
river label. It is bad enough to in-
uro tho market for cannsd goods by
sending out. unmarketable stuff
but it is the acme of dishonesty to at
tempt to trade on tho acknowledged
reputation of tho Columbia river
salmon. That the Columbia river
salmon is superior to any other is so
well known as to require no further
evidence; tho Columbia river canners
owe it to themselves to take steps to
secure the distinctive appellation.
Man' years ago it was decided that
Georgia planters could not mark their
cotton "Sea Island Cotton." The pre
cedent is an excellent one to follow.
Make the words Uoiumuia river on a
can of salmon not packed on the Co
lumbia river a penal offense and the
piracy would cease.
Second the Motion.
En. Astouian:
Now that the applause has subsided,
Yillard and party departed, and tho
peeches and reports received and
placed on file, would it. not be in
order to hear the report from the
Cascade locka and canal? There being
nothing now before the board, the
Astoria-Forest Grove railroad ha3
been put on the table, so if in order,
we should like to hear from some of
the gentlement that have the interest
of "the whole state" at heart, on this
subject; it is probably of more
moment to us in Astoria than to ithe
Willamette folks, vet an occasional
airing ot that great undertaking
would ba as good news, to some of ns
at least, as the "Slado Snliivan slug
ging" or tho famous Julian and Jay
Eye See trotting.
Do I hear a second?
Yours, truly,

A. Narrow Escape.
.Last luesday evening a young man
employed as a waiter in one of the
restaurants sought his room over
drug store in this city after the labors
of the day were over, and after going
to bed solaced himself by reading
novel and smoking a cigarette. He
flung tho stub away aud feeling drowsy
went to sleep. After a while a dense
smoke attracted the attention
others occupying the building, and
getting the door open the smouldering
bed clothes, ignited by the cigarette.

and the fire put out without doing
any material damage, beyond givin
all concerned a scare. He says ho
will smoke no more cigarettes

The Astoria Railroad Question.
Astoria, Sept. 2i, 1883.
To the Editor op the Obegoniak:
You ask in to-day's Orcgoman,
What do the people of Astoria
think of Yillard's answer?" It may
ne considered presumptuous for your
correspondent to endeavor to reply
or "the people of Astoria, but as
his opportunity for forming an opin
ion on the subject is, perhaps as good
any other citizen, he proposes to
lo so, first premising that tho conclu
sions he has reached aro tho result of
conferences held with individuals, who
are not only personally, and largely,
interested in the growth and prosper
ity of Astoria, but who are also capa
ble of calmly and dispassionately re
flecting upon the issue involved on
the proposition made by Mr. Yillard
in his answer to the questions put to
him by the Astoria chamber of com
merce, asking "it a contract to ouiia
the Astoria-Forest Grove railroad
could be let at $30,000 a mile, and
terminal facilities provided, if he
would then commence to build'' to
which Mr. Yillard replied in the affir
mative, provided the contractor would
construct the road according to the
plans and specifications of his engin
eer, and accept in payment $20,000
in first and $10,000 in second mort
gage bonds, which, he adds, are .ill
the available means the company has
to expend for that purpose.
It must be evident to every intelli
gent hu3iues3 man that such uu un
derstanding and such a .proposition,
involving as it does the outlay of mil
lions of dollars, requires careful con
sideration on the part of the parties
interested, and however desirous they
may be to see the work speedily com
menced, a considerable time must nec
essarily elapse before a definito answer
can bo given to Mr. jYillard'a offer.
We believe it is the opinion of the
majority of tho substantial citizens of
stona that Mr. Yillard lias an
swered tho question of the chamber
of commerce fairly aud honestly, and
that when he states that his otter in
cludes nil the availablo means the
company has at its disposal for this
work, ho means just what ho says,
and he asserts it in good faith and
with the best of intentions. It is a
fact that prior to Mr. Yillard's state
ment that, according to the estimate
of his engineer, the road would cost
50,000 per mile influential men,
capitalists, who hare had experience
in contraction for the construction of
railroads in sections where great engi
neering difficulties had to be sur
mounted, had, with a presumably fair
knowledge of the country through
which this road would pass, stated
that it could be built for less than
$30,000 per mile, and intimated that
there would be no diiliculty in u tiding
bidders whenever a contract should be
called for. It is by no means certai n
that such a contract cannot be let,
even now. But, as tho road mast, in
accordance with Mr. Yillard's offer,
constructed according to the
plan3 and specifications of tho com
pany's engineer, it is necessary that a
copy of these plans shall be submitted
to and examined by tho parties in
tending to take tho matter of con
struction into consideration. Our
chamber of commerce has made a for
mal request for a copy of said plans,
specifications and estimates, and as it
is an indispensable prerequisite, no
ubt the request will bo granted.
Until these are .received, things must
remain in statu quo.
In connection with this subject,
permit me to add that Mr. Yillard's
decision has not by any means pro
duced a panic in Astoria. Had he
declared the other way, doubtless
pectators would have endeavored to
create a boom in real estate. Per
haps we are better off without any
such boom, with its consequent future
reaction. Astoria is growing rapidly
in size and commercial importance.
Its present growth is hoalthy and
legitimate, because it 'is produced
simply by natural requirements, and
there is little doubt but that the time
will soon arrive, if it has not already,
when it will pay to build n railroad to
Astoria, if it is only an extension of
the Portland-Kalama. But this will
not satisfy Astorians, as long as that
much talked of (and as we think.
much abused ) land grant is
ini2 existence. And just here
permit me to say that Astoria is
far from being a unit on the subject
of the torteiture ot the land grant, a
demand for which has lately been
circulated and is to be forwarded to
tho secretary of the interior, who will
probably treat it in as disrespectful a
manner as it is worded and email
blame to him. Influential parties
have said they could negotiate for the
construction of the Forest Grovo road
for the land grant, and Mr. Yillard
has courteously informed the chamber
of commerce that ho will help in this
or any other way to securo tho con
strtict-on ot tne road, and corre
spondence is already opened with him
on this subject, and will doubtless re
suit in our knowing just what can and
what cannot be dono in this direction
Astorians are naturally very anxious
to securo better communication with,
and a market to and from, the Neha-
lem valley, with its immense foresU
of timber and rich coal mines, and,
continuing from thence, to tap the
Willamette valley and jnve the farm
ers there an outlet to tho sea, where
they can ship their grain without pay
ing txiDuto to l'ortiana; DUtamaior
ity, we believe, are disposed lo think
that if this cannot be accomplished
with a valuable land grant to reward
the company which undertakes to do
it, it will not be dono during the pres
ent ceueration, and therefore they do
not demand tho forfeiture of the land
grant.
