The way to build up n town is to be lieve in it become inspired with a faith that there is a future for it; and for ev ery citizen to lend a helping hand, to make it what it ought to be. This, in brief, is local pride it is local public spirit that does not hesitate to make a present sacrifice in the faith that it will make the town in which we live in some way better in the future. The Proper Caper. A neatly printed, attractive little book has just issued from the press of the Ap- Ileton's with the title "Don't." It refers to "mistakes and improprieties more or less prevalent in conduct or speech," and contains many valuable suggestions. But it is attuned to tickle only ears polite, and is calculated to strike the average American citizen, who aspires to do the proper thing, with dismay. There is usu ally a good deal of humbug about this sort of thing, the form being laid more stress on as a rule than the substance, and it is perfectly safe for the individual to subject all such recommendations to the test of common senso in the light of experience. It is important certainly to know what things are disagreeable in so ciety ana uvuiu. iuuuj, uui, ynuii mo knowledge, the heart, if it is a good one, or can simulate a good one, will dictate tho rest. It is but fair to observe that most promulgations of social forms lay down some such principle as this, but then they drift off into setting forth rales, manv of which are wholly snn2r- ficial and fanciful. For those people who can not think for themselves dogmas have been more or less useful, whether in politics, religion, or in the regulation of .social conduct, but we protest against be ing considered ill-mannered if we fail to comply with certain things set down in the hooka. For instance, the censor in "Don't" tells us not to eat soup from the end of the spoon, but from the side. Now there are numerous lnamauais wearing mmsuicnes who have given this subject careful con sideration, and they have, most of them, come to the conclusion that it is not only more convenient but better mannered for them to take this liquid food from the end of the spoon rather than to dab ble their mustache through the whole length of the trough, as it were, every time iney raise me spoon 10 ineir lips. It is more agreeable to themselves and to those present. The law is also laid down that you shall not leave your knife and fork on you plate when sending for a second supply. This is well enough per haps, but it strikes tho author of "Don't' as not being entirely orthodox, and he en ters into a deep train of thought con cerning it, which leaves him with the imprrcsion that tho strictly just process to pursue is to divide the responsibility and retain the knife in the hand while the fork follows the fortune of the plate. The subject is rather too abstruse to re ceive careful treatment in an editorial article, and, since authorities differ, we are compelled to leave it in a painful estate of uncertainty. We cordially in dorse the injunction, however, not to .spit bones and other rejected mat ter out in a reckless manner, involving aB it does the peace of mind and clothes of .one's neighbors, but to lower them care- .steel assure ub .how unnecessary it is to do this, it ex plains that a silver knife is now placed 3y the side of each plate for the fish course. Now there are a few secluded spots into which the full light of civilization has not penetrated where a silver knife is not thus placed. In such anemer- 5aicyUie only plan seems to bo to omit ."We are also entreated not to wear soiled linen, and above all thincs not to blow tho nose with the fingers. In a work which concerns itself with fine and intri cale points, these admonitions would scarcely seem to be necessary. The per son who bothers himself with the difficult problem as to the disposition of the knife and fork when sendins his plate for a second supply, very rarely, if ever, has May inclination to blow his nose with his fiagers. Still it is well not to leave any points macovered. Tkftdteli giving TKrkeyu. Sose choice turkeys at Warren & ITbwapeon's. Leave yosr orders early. jruiiy to tne piate wun me ionr.

Holden, Secretary of the Astoria Cham bar of Commerce, for publication, in ac cordance with a resolution passed at the last meeting of the chamber. On the 13th of last September Mr. Yil lard wrote n letter from Portland to the chamber in which he said: ''Referring to the conference had with the committee of your Chamber of Commorcs at my office in this city on April 24th, last, lam only now able to redeem the promlso then made, that I would inform your Chamber of Commerce at the earliest possible mo ment of the result of the survey of the Astoria-Forest Grove line. So many un foreseen obstacles were encountered in making the surveys that it was a matter of absolute impossibility to complete tho work at an earlier date. I regret to say that the estimates of the cost of the line in question, now before me, are so large that it will be impossible for the Oregon & Transcontinental Company as lessee of the Oregon & California Railroad Company, to undertake its construction. According to the cnjriueerh' Ssrure. the i cost will be no les? than an average of T0,000 per mile, in money, not including tho probable cost of proper terminal fa cilities at Astoria, estimated at 7."i0,000. Under tho existing mortgage we could not possibly issue more than the nominal amount of 30,000 per mile in bonds on tho line, and there are abso lutely no means to meet the deficiency at the command of cither party. "Wo must, therefore abandon the project." To this, on the 18th of September, the following telegraphic reply was sent : 'If contract for huildiufc Astoria and Forest Grove railroad complete could be let at $30,000 per mile, and lands for ter minus at Astoria donated, will you com mence construction of roadr On Sept. 21st, Mr. Villard t?ltgrRphpd m response: "Will im very giau to pny anyone who will build the road in accord ance with engineers' i!ans and specifica tions, twenty thousand dollar per mile in first, and ten thousand dollars per milo in second mortgage bonds, all the avail able means the coiupuij has, provided proper terminal facilities m Astoria are assured. To correct misimpression will add that tho estimate of cost includes full equipment of buildings, discount on bonds, interest during construction, gen eral expenses, and other items not in cluded m the estimates proper of the en gineers. On September 23th the following tele gram was sent by the chamber of com merce to Mr. Villard. ''Will you permit us to examine your engineers plans anu specihcationswitu n view of deciding about t he acceptance of your offer?" On October 2 tho following dispatch was received from Mr. Villard in reply: "Your position is not consistent, ou first disputed correctness of our survey: now you wish to use it to base bids on. 1 cannot allow anyone to use the beneut of oar survey without reimbursement of cost." Upon receipt of the foregoing the cham ber deemed it advisable to send Mr. Vil lard a letter of which thu roLiiOWiKG is a copy : Astobia, Oct. 20th, 1S. Henry Villard, President X. P. !!. B. Xetv York: DnAB Sin: l'our telegram of Octo ber 2d duly received. The chamler directs mo to reply that there seems to be some misunderstanding. J.iie cliam ber's first inquiry of September 18th is as follows: If contract for building Astoria-Forest Grove railroad complete can bo let at thirty thousand dollars a mile. lands for terminus at Astoria donated, will you then commence construction of roadir" was based on a proposition made to build a ntandard guage road. Your answer of September 20th to that inquiry was that you would be very glad to pay anyone wno wouiu ounu in ac cordance with your engineers' plans and specifications twenty thousand dollars per mile m nrst anu ten thousand dollars per mile in second mortgage oonus, proper terminal facilities in Astoria as- tun;u. it v men ohtu ueruubsiuu m cu the plans land specifications and you re ply that our position is inconsistent, mat wo first dispute the correctness of your survey and now wish to use it to base pute the figures of your engineers; but if we can see our way to raise the amount of money required over and above tho twenty thousand dollars nrst mortgage and ten thousand dollars second mort gage bonds and place ourselves in a post tion to build the road as vou wish, it is not apparent to us how we are inconsis tent in asking to be permitted to use the plans and specifications in accordance with which we are required to build. You certninly could not expect anyone to undertako a contract on uniniown plans. It is for tho express purpose of placing ourselves in a position to dotermine if we can or cannot find sufficient means to build the road that we ask tho privilege of seeing your plans and specifications. And with this explanation we again ask to be allowed to see the plans and speciii cations. Very respoctf ullv, E. C. HOLDEN, Sec'y AstoriH Chamber of Commerce. To this tho following was in due time received in answer: Nkw York, Oct. 31, 1833. E. C. Holden, Esq., Secretary Astoria. Chamber of Commerce: Dear Sis Your letter of the 20th inst is received. I am obliged to say in reply that 1 nave no right as president or the Oregon & California Railroad Company, and as president of the lessee company, to givo tho Astoria Chamber of Com merce or any one "else the benefit of the information of our survey collected at a large expense without a proper consider ation therefor.
