The case comes up before his honor to-day. FtirBislicil Rooms to Rent. Apply to Airs. Henry, in Carruthers uuiiuiu, ut ei vx. r. uuiucs tjivre. SituRtiou "Wanted. A young Japanese would like a situ- ation m a iamtiy to uo housework, in A ROAD FROX CLATSOP. Probabilities Ah To It Construction. Sometime ago The Astomak agitated the question of building a road from this city via Smith's point to Skipanon and Clatsop beach: the idea was taken hold of in a practical way but it was too late in the season to accomplish anything and has lain in abeyance for some time. In conversation yesterdav afternoon with a prominent citizen and one whose long residence and public spirit give value to his opinions, he said: "It is, in my judgment, one of the most important matters before the consideration of the people. "We naturally look to The As tomak to advocate what is of interest to Astorinns and a good many of us think that a road to Clatsop would be of the greatest benefit to the city, not excepting the Astoria railroad of which we hear so much. Take it for instance on the selfish grounds of profit. Every year there are at least THESE THOUSAND PEOPLE who come down here from the heats and torments of the "Willamette valley to en joy the cool breezes of the coast. As it is they scatter off here and there, and half the time arc not as as well satisfied as they could be under different circum stances. Nowwere there a road to Clat sop, these three thousand people who will spend on an average $100 a piece, would, in the main, stop at Astoria, the greatest natural resort tor health on the north Pacific coast; hero they could have all the facilities of daily mail, telegraph, gas, express, hotels, and the thousand little comforts of civilized life and when they wanted to go to the beach for clams, dips in the surf, etc., they would get a livery team: pater faiuilias would take his wife and little ones down there and get back in good time for his cor respondence, etc., and considerable money would be spent here in a good many ways that would benefit Astoria." 'Then, on the other hand, take the people that live on Clatsop plains. You very naturally grumble sometimes that butter and eggs and garden track come high, but when you come to pay your faro and freight, sometimes both ways, there isn't a bonanza in it by anv means. If a Clatsop farmer could Ioad" on his sacks of potatoes and baskets of butter and eggs, and come in and dispose of what he could, and carry the rest back without expense, I think it would bo a good thing for him. and I think it would be just as good for Astoria. I tell you we ought to have that road." "Bui.' interposed The Astoeian re porter, 'you of course know that adverse reports have been received relative to the probability of getting permission to build a bridge across the channel in loung s nvcrr les, 1 was the shrewd rejomer, "but we can get around that. I really believe that the plan 1 am going to suggest to you would, in any event, be the bast. Briefly, it is this. To build a road on piles, "as is customary in cases of this kind, to the channel, and then have a ferry to the other side. A ferry that would be worked by a chain would do nrst-rate. ine disadvantage of a draw bridge would be done away with, and there would be no interference whatever with navigation.' lhe idea appears a coou one. and all that remains is to put it into practical execution. Nature has done so much in the matter of a natural roadway from uniontown to bmith slroiut that a very little effort would keep that part of it in repair, lucre was some good work done there last summer, lrom amith s Point the road could be built to the channel, there to connect with a ferrv to the other side of the channel, a distance probably of 300 yards, and thence to a point near Adair s slough, borne of the stock has been already subscribed; the rest can be. Last Ilrenlng'K Coacert. The concert at the Congregational church last evening by the church choir and amateur orchestral union for the ben efit of the organ fund, attracted one of the lurgest audiences of the season. De spite the rain the edifice was filled, and a most attractive programme rendered. First on the list was a chorus, "The God of Israel," by the orchestra, after which Airs. F. R. Stokes' sweet voice was heard in Balfe's Gipsy song. 'Tra a Alorry Zingara." 'Come where the Lilie's Bloom," was adniiiably sung by a quar tette consisting oi airs. u. w. .cut ton. Airs. T. W. Eaton, D. A. Alclntosh, and Scott Bozorth. Aliss Winnie Crane's voice was heard to advantage in "Oh, llow Delightful, ' after winch the meas ures of Strauss' Beautiful Blue Dan ube Waltz were sung in a Greet ing to Spring by Airs. C. W. Fulton, Airs. C J. Trenchard, Airs. T. W, Eaton, and Aliss I. mine Dicken son. Tho overture JSymph of the Alouutain," was so admirably rendered by the amateur orchestral union as to elicit a hearty encore. "Give Ale Aly Own Native Isle" was sung by Aliss "Win nie Craug. Aliss ICate Connolly, W. H. Barker and J. N. Griffin, followed bv "W. IL Barker in the tender ballad of "Kitty Farmer and His Boys, by D. A. Alcln tosh. "W. H. Barker, J. N. Griffin and Scott Bozorth was followed by the chorus of "Harvest Home," by the entire chorus and orchestra, in splendid style. Mrs. D. A. Alclntosh was the accompanist, and D. A. Alclntosh swung the baton as leader of the orchestra, lhe concert was well received, and a thorough success. The Astoria Railroad. Astoeia. Dec. 4. 1883, Editoe Astoulvn: There seems to be somo agitation in regard to the forfeiture of the land grant Is tho community aware that Air. Villard has authorized Air. Kochler to negotiate tho construction of the road from Astoria to Forest Grove to the extent of giving the land grant and $20,000 bonds per mile besides? It has been said that the road could be built for the grant alone, but now when it seems that the comnanv would crive 20.000 per mile additional our citizens preter not to encourage the proposition but desire to take away the grant. This action of the community in refusing to consider Air. Villard's accession to their proposition would seem to be an endorse ment oi his osuuiaie oi me cost oi ine road. Citizen. House to Rent.

The products of the field, the forest, and the sea have long constituted the exports foreign and domestic that have gone across the Columbia bar in all their varied abundance. For more than ten years Tm Astobiax hns chronicled the shipments of lumber, wheat, salmon, flour, fruit, and all the rich and varied treasures that the far-off foreign folk buy of us, and now it appears thnt the mineral products of the great Northwest are also to go out the silver gate, as Pix ley styles the entrance to our noble river. On the barge Wyatchie there arrived last night 250 tons of ore from far-off Mon tana. It is copper ore of a peculiarly re bellious character, and has resisted the action of the most powerful furnaces that the Alontana Copper Company have in their works at Batte. The intention is to ship this copper ore on the George S. Homer to New York, there to be trans ferred to the hold of a Cardiff bound steamer for Swansea. "Wales, where the largest and finest reduction works in the world are situated. It is expected that about ".0 tons more will go on this ship ment, making r00 tons that go on the George S. Homer as an initial shipment. Should the venture prove successful it will be followed by other shipments. There is a mountain of the ore at the company's works, and they are enabled to get such westward rates from the O.K. & P. Company as to make it an object to reach Astoria and deep water vessels, the peculiar character of the freight making it also desirable for ballast. Forty Iar." Aqo. By the politeness of Judge Thomas If. Smith we have been perniittod to exam ine the census of Oregon, taken by him self in 1844, about forty years ago. Ore gon at that time contained the present state of Oregon, the territory of Wash ington, Idaho, and that part of "Wyom ing and Alontana west of the Rocky Mountains. This great empire of terri tory, six times larger than the state of Pennsylvania, had then five counties with a population as follows: Clackamas, males. 232, females. 121); Champoie. m., 400; f., S03; Clatsop, m., Gl, f., 30: Twa latian. m., 301), f.. 21: Ynma Hill, m., 2.T.7. f.. 1TS. Total population, m., 1.239, f., S."1. Of this population about half the females were squaws, the wives of the trappers and hunters. The present popu lation of that section of the Union is about 330,000 people. The copy of Judge Smith's census report is a slip of weather stained paper about five inches long. Oregon was finally cut down to a comer of this territorial qnndranglo and ad mitted as a state in 18.19. The territories were organized later. It is a most re markable circumstance to call to mind the fact that one of our citizens, yet in vigorous manhood, once enumerated all the white inhabitants and the squaw wives belonging to them, amounting to about 2,000 souls of all ages, while now the people number about :150,000, with one slate organization and four flourish ing territories of large dimensions. It would be a good idea for our Historical Societv to obtain with this report from Judge Smith and put it with the latest census reports of that vast region, em bracing several large quarto volumes. History is being made most rapidly on tbe western slope of the American Union. Los Angeles Herald. A 'eiT Clock. One of tho most prominent features of the landscape yesterday afternoon was the foundation for a new clock in front of Carl Adler's Crystal Palace, which was being built under the superintendency of the Holt Bros. The post, column, plinth, pedestal, support, superstructure and pediment of the aforesaid clock is built of imitation sandstone, and will stand near the northeast comer of Genevieve and Squemoqua streets. Upon this will stand upright a clock with a 30-iuch dial, ine uiai wiiu two nanus to lnuicaio ine hours of the day and darkness. "When night has spread its sable mantle over the earth this dial will be illuminated by means oi au iron iuiia irom me mains oi tho Astoria" Gaslight company, whose office is almost directly opposite The As toeian building, up to a point between the figures XH and VI, there terminating m a jet, which will bo lit at an appropri ate time. Tho dial looking to the east will indicate the same precise time as its brother dial looking to the west, and vice versa. To those who are not within see ing distance of this clock the hours of the day and night will be tolled with cheer ful distinctness by a 12-inch gong, whoso rectitude and regularity cannot be sue cessfully contradicted. lhe clock will bo a valuable addition to that busy thoroughfare and of inesti mable convenience to the public. lEciit Custom AVork, Knots anil Shors, Can he had at I.
