w Mt gaily gistorian. ASTORIA, OREGON: TUESDAY MA"C11 IS. 16S4 FUN IN LOGAN'S CAMP. The Chicago News' "Washington special says: It is worth a trip to Washington to see Logan run his boom. He may never get nearer to the presidency than 812 Twelfth street, but he is having more fun than an alderman at a Dutch picnic. The colored boy who tends the door at Logan's boarding-house has a wear ied look, and well he may, for he lets in president-makers by hundreds. Many of these are strangers and they mount the stairs with fear and trembling. They feel as if they were about to be shot till they meet ilrs. Logan or Mrs. Tucker, who has much of her mother's suavity, and they recover themselves and thaw out like frozen apples in a bakery. They shake hands with John and he fixes them with his glit tering eye and then turns them over to his able lieutenants the ladies who complete the capture. There is no man here who looks more like a statesman than Logan, but he wants to keep silent When John opens his mouth he is liable to put his foot in it, but Mrs. Logan how ahe can draw the politicians! "Thunder and lightning!" exclaim ed a man from Nebraska, who had just made a call at Logan's residence, 'isn't she a buster? I never saw a woman in my life who could say so much in a minute and say it as slick as she can. 'And what do you think of the General? says she; Tm awful sorry, Mr. Pillsberry, that you didn't bring you wife with you.' By gosh! how'd the old woman look, d'ye think, side such magnifi cent high-talkin' woman as Mrs. Logan? Oh, I am fur Lcgan. Why, when she shook hands with me and said, 'I hope you'll remember the general out there,' says I, 'You can yoke me with a red steer and hitch me to a breakin' plow, if I don't do just that very thing,' and you bet I wilL" At El Paso Mexican dollars are worty eighty-five cents in American coin. At Paso del Norte, just across the river, American dollars are worth eighty-five cents in Mexican coin One morning a car driver started from the American side with a Mexi can dollar. On his arrival in the Mexican town he took a drink of chain lightning, which was fifteen cents, and received an American dol lar in change for his Mexican. On his return to the American side he took a drink of equally bad liquor, and received a Mexican dollar for his American, and so repeating the drinks at intervals during the day and at night he closed up his busi ness with the Mexican dollar he started with in the morning. The Boston Herald indulges in sense and sarcasm in the following paragraph: The last pension bill goes back and rakes up not -merely all who suffered, but all who served in the Creek, Black Hawk and Semi nole wars. It would not involve more than 6100,000,000. This bill, taken in connection with Senator Blair's which provides for pensions for the soldiers of future wars, completes the compre hensive system, unless some ingeni ous congressman thinks to bring for ward one more bill to pension all persons whe were living at the time of any war. We are inclined to think that the pension business as an lectioneeriug dodge has gone far enough. Of course there is such a thing as Queen's English. Here is a speci men from Victoria Begina's late work on the Highlands of Scetland: "Im mediately after this we came upon the bridge, and Loch Tay, with its wooded banks, clear and yet misty, burst into view. This again reminded me of the past of the row up the loch, which is sixteen miles long, in 1842 in several boats, with pibroohs playing and the boatmen singing wild Gaelic songs." Attention is directed to the convoluted, involuted condi tion of the last sentence. They talk and write nearly as good English as this "out West" The annual rainfall in this country, according to the Weathtr Signal, is lowest in New Mexico j(13 inches) and California (18 inches), and highest in Oregon (49) and Alabama (5G). The annual rainfall in the British Islands among the mountains is 41 inches; on the plains, 23 inches; 45 inches of rain falls on the west side of England, and 27 inches on the east side. A sisguiiAB accident happened lately in a mill at Nashville. Teun. A workman was thrown toward a circu lar saw, and thinking he would strike it died from fright When picked up he was deal, but there was no sign of a bruise on his both. It was found necessary to prove the marriage of an old lady in Maine the other day, and after a little search three credible witnesses were produced who testified that they were present at her weddiug sixty three years ago. A leading: member of the New York Prison association says there are over 50,000 persons now confined in jails in New York state, and ho olaims that one man out of every eventy-flve met with in the city is a criaunal. An inspired idiot who edits, prints and utters a sort of El Mahdi news paper at Leavenworth, Kan., having been accused of the moderate and delicate offense of Free-Lovism, re sponds in this frantic style: We don't believe in Free-Love, nor any other kind of sex-love. We not only believe in the doctrine of Mal thus but we would go much further and apply that doctrine to all men, all women, and ring the curtain down on the tragedy of life -letting it cease and cease forever with the gen erations of to-day. This sounds like the melancholy outpouring of an impassioned Soul about eight weeks behind wilh its board bill. A New Yorker says: "We will cast nearly 1,400,000 votes this falL I think the straight Democrat voters outnumber the straight .Republicans by from 20,000 to 25,000 votes. But we have in New York state from 75, 000 to 100,000 independent voters, not tied to any party, who vote each year as they think the occasion warrants. It is to this class that we must ap peal in our nomination if we wish to be sure of getting the ekctoral vote of New York." Since Germany has locked out the American hog, the patriotic American youth no longer buys the German ac cordeon. Importations of that dul cet instrument, it is reported, have largely fallen off of late. Of all absurd spectacles, quite the most absurd recently witnessed is that of the Illinois office-holders go ing whining to the president to ask if they would be protected against Logan if they chose to work for Arthur. Two Republican workers in Bhode Island have been convicted of buy ing vo.tes at $2 each in the state elec tion last year. The attorney-general who prosecuted them was on the ticket for which they bought votes. A western man has struck out in a new business. He goes from town to town offering to discover taxable property omitted from the assessment rolls, taking as his pay twenty per cent of the taxes collected thereon. A FiFTEEN-year-old girl who eloped recently from her home in Detroit said, as one of her reasons for so do ing, that she wanted to be young enough, when her golden wedding came around to enjoy it. Contents of a house which was levied on by a bailiff of Blakely, Ga., one tin pan, two tin plates, one broken tray, one broken spider, one looking glass, one pair of tongs, two guns and a "yaller coon dog." The New York Sim says: Regard for the exact truth obliges us to record the fact that at tlie present time James G. Blaine leads all other candidates for the Republican nom ination. Pbesidext Taylo'r of the Mormon church, said the other day: "When they come west to wipe out polygamy they will find 100,000 muskets point ing eastward." NEW TO-DAY. OCCIDEiNTAL HALL F. V.
