ASTORIA, OREGON: THURSDAY. ..MAKCH C. 1S81 It would be better for the Mexican government if it bought twentj-five thousand shovels instead of tweuty fiva thousand rifles. A chickkk in rennsylvauia recently gave a man a blow with his bill which rAaiilforl fnfcillv. This is the worst case of hen-pecking on record. England has kindly loaned us a ship to aid in the Greeley relief ex pedition. Why not ask the other European countries to help us out. Bee ranches are getting so numer ous in southern California that the young man who attends picnics is very careful to see that the coast is clear before he sits down. It was Patrick Henry who re marked, something moro than a cent ury ago, "I have but ono lamp by which my feel are guided, and that is the lamp of experience." The guide is as good now as in the days of "76. Experience is only precept leaching by example, and whether the experi ence be the result of personal knowl edge or observation, it furnishes a safe rule of action. u You Are Sure to be Suited AND O RGANS The distinguished Englishmen who have lately visited us say that the United States "is a republic oniy in name." Well I England is u mon archy only in name, so it's about a stand-off. There s ono old man in Clay coun ty, North Carolina, who has borne through ninety-two years the burden of the name of Gumbleton Eufflc ton Scuffleton Oberda Whittletou Southenhall Benjamin Franklin Sqaires. A Jeeseyman swallowed a water melon seed one day last'summer and is now dying from the effects thereof. Notwithstanding his fate people will continue to crunch the luscious fruit of the vine and gaze upon it when it is red. Ah item remarks that "a widow shot herself in the oil regions the other day.'' That's a new place to shoot oneself. Poetry says the heart and in fact says the head, but the widow says they are both too commonplace. One of the state senators of Virginia proposes that a reservation shall be bet apart for the colored people. This is a very good idea, but why make this discrimination in favor of the black race against native white Ameri cans? Wh not a reservation for the latter? Immigration is pouring in on us so rapidly from all quartors of the world that Americans may be com pelled in the not distant future to look out for a small corner where they can be all alone. English lords are buying cattle ranches by the hundred thousand acres in the we3t German barons are thicker than blackberries in Texa3. What chance is there for Americans against so great a competi tion? Wo commend the question to NEW TO-DAY. Leading AT THE Furniture House .SMALL MUSICAL 1NSTRUME OF ALL KINDS.

A paper has been started there to ap pear whenever the editor judges it convenient or feels like getting out an issue. He should apply for a patent in the U. S. at once. It is now suggested lv the tariff reformers that if any stale desires to foster a particular branch of industry it shall do it by a state bounty. In that case if people wish to pay for certain industries they can tax them selves for it, and not tax the whole country. The rapidity with which Minne sota's population has increased is remarkable. When admitted as a territory in 1819 its population was 4,940, in 1830 it was 6,077, in 1860 it was 172,023, in 1870 it was 439,407, in 1880 some 6SQ8000, and at present it is not less than 1,000,000.

The proposed suits of the stock holders of the Oregon Transconti nental against the directors of their company have turned out to be brag gadocio, and the reports that ex President Villard was to go through bankruptcy are said by Horace White to be ridiculous and absurd. It is said that fifty young and good-looking English women have left London to be married to" well behaved convicts in New Caledonia. American girls who are in search of husbands can do better than that They can come west and secure men who may be rough diamonds, yet possess warm hearts.

The telegraph says that there is a disposition in "Washington among a large number of the Democratic rep resentatives to dodge the tariff. Sen sible men! It is the most dangerous missile that is hurtling through the political skies at the present time. No one can tell when, where or how it will strike, except 3Ir.
