Troverlm Etc
, The skies that flush in crinisjou bpleu
1 dor above our fir crowned hilld aro radiant
in tho glow of summer; the gold undgray
ot dawn, the brilliant noonday light and
tho purple mist of the winsot Bhodows

Theae pleasant summer day, such us
Friday and Saturday were, and this week
gives promise of being, fill a good many
of us with an indescribable longing for a
holiday, a season of rest and quiet en
joyment; a feeling that resembles laziness
as the mist resembles the rain, takes pos
session of the mind and body and one's
thoughts turn to shady nooks, and bo3ky
dells, und trout streams und a gypsy life.
'A summer holiday.' It means a good
deal. To one, it means the city with its
round of busy life; to another, the sea
shore and the accomodations that the
seashore affords; to still another, the soli
tude of the mouuntaius and the bracing
air of higher altitudes usually the idea
of a holiday comprising something oppo
site to the daily life and surroundings of
me lnuiviuuai.
''Give me health unda da,"saysi2iner-
.on, "and l wm make tne pomp of em
perors ridiculous." About as much real,
solid enlovmcnt as nnv can ha had be
getting off to the tall timber and letting
umigsiaKe care oi inamseives ior a sea
sou. Two things are needed a good
crowd and a suitable outfit. As for the
outfit, a pair of "stogy" boots, blue flan
nel shirt, stout overalls, a heavy duck
coat with ample pockets, Kossuth hat
and riile cane are sufficient; the commis
sary requires some bacon, flour, sugar,
salt, coffee, onions, etc. Somo cough
medicine for snake bits, und a package of
tobacco to burn nt odd hours for the pur
pose of keeping off insects, might fill
space otherwise unoccupied in the box.
A good deal depends on the crowd. If
there is any one time in life when u man
comes out in full bloom it is when ho is
camping, and ouo growler will upset the
sport and spirits of the entire party.
Harmony of purpose is necessary and for
that reason a large party nover gets on ns
well as one fewer in number.
Between here and Saddle Mountain
lies a piece of country that offers n good
many advantages to a party who propose
to take a couplo of weeks trom the busy
year and to make rod and gun supply the
provender for that space of time,
and such glorious days as the present
strongly suggests the propriety of leaving
the planks for the elastic turf beneath
the leet and exchanging the UBual nvoca
tions of the day for the oar and rifle, the
zest of appetite that camping brings and
the refreshing sleep that absence of care
insures.
There is a strip of sand running from
opposite Garibaldi, Tillamook county, to
Cape Meares, that has all the attributes
necessary to make a desirable seaside re
sort. Not the least among its attractions
is its isolation. On one side rolls the
ocean, and all day long the trample of
the surf upon the sand; on the other the
placid bay of Tillamook, und down the
point dairy farms rich in requitemeuts
for n vernal feast. Just now it is not
"fashionnble." As soon as a great four
square house is built and 'improve
ments" are made, and it is duly adver
tised as a tresort," it will have lost its
chiefest charm. At present the A. B.
Field affords excellent means of arriving
and departing, and few places on the
coast offer superior inducements to a
camping party of half a dozen or so who
don't want to soo a paper nor hear a word
of "news" for a fortnight.
"Do as 3 ou are done by," seems to be
the accepted version of the golden rulo
in this afternoon of the century. It is a
counterfeit maxim, but it passes current,
and is rarely refused in making the small
change of the day. The fact that pre
cept gaud practico are at open war makes
the true coin somewhat scarce, though
its presence is in direct proportion to its
demand.
It is so easy to preach and so hard to
practice, and the world is so full of good
advice now, that it seems like covert hy
pocrisy to air that golden standard of
action, "Do unto others as ye would
that others should do unto you." This
is indeed the Christian law, and yet is
there not in this very injunction a cer
tain measure of implied selfishness? We
are told, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor
as thyself," and right in this precept is
set up the idea that your love for your
neighbor must be measured by the stand
ard of your own lovo for yourself. Ac
cording to this, u man that does not love
himselt can not lovo his neighbor, and
the logical conclusion is that a certain
amount of selfishness in necessary as a
starter in the scheme of fraternity and
Christian conduct. It is not the inten
tion to follow this out simply to indi
cate the argument and leave it at that.
"Feed a cold and starve a fever," said
a friend yesterday, as he dropped into a
chair and coughed spasmodically, after a
hearty luncheon, eaten in accordance
with his proverb. But isn't that proverb
or maxim a trifle misleading? Colds aro
so common in Astoria that the question
becomes an important one. Isn't it just
possible that musty old maxim about
1 coding colds and starving fevers has
been somewhat shortened in its descent
and made to mean exactly contrary to its
true intent. The true state of the hy
gienic case wonld bo more fittingly rep
resented were it to read this way: "If
you feed a cold you will hnvo a fevor to
starve," and any one that has ever tried
to get rid of a cold by stuffing himself
will bear us out in the supposition.
There is another proverb that forms
the mistaken basis tor a good manv ser
mons. It is that one which says, "Char
ity covereth a multitude of sins." There
is no doubt that charity should cover a
multitude of sins, but it is evident that
the original intent of tho proverb is per
verted. If it bo understood that no mat
ter what tho private peccadilloes of the
individual be, just so he is charitable he
can balance up the accounts on Heaven's
ledger in that way and if ho only work
tho thing right can'havo.'a handsome
sum to his credit on the right side of tho
account. Tho:idoa seems to come down
from the days when n man could sink a
ship and crew and with a part of tho
swag that ho obtained by wholesale mur
der could square things by bestowing
largess on his fuvorite creed. It would
seem as though a more reasonable defini
tion of the saying would make it moan
that we should all of us be leniant with
tho faults or imperfections of those we
love, and that a proper spirit of Christian
charity should impel us to bear with one
another's infirmities and bodily weak
nesses. The meaning is more tersely ex
pressed in the attendant aphorism
"Love is blind."

An KxptHklre Operation to hhlp-Owsirj
How It Is Done.
"Come and seo 'em scrape barnacles ff
from the bottom of a big iron steamer"'
said an employe of the Pacific Mail com
pany to a reporter of tho Chronicle re
cently. ''You wouldn't think it, but it3
one of the biggest items of exponso in
tho repair of these steamers," continued
he. "It's an operation that every ship's
bottom goes through after every third
trip across tho Pacific,and you know that
the little creatures which give us so much
trouble are thicker and attain their
growth more rapidly in Pacific patera
than they do in the Atlantic."
Tho reporter and his informant were
in the vicinity of Hunter's point dry
dock, and on entering the yard the City
of Xeic York was seen high and dry on
the supports, and a large number of men,
each with a triangular-shaped scraprr of
hard metal in hand, were working ou hr.
These scrapers had handles attached to
tho center and were ground ou ?seb of
their three edges. The sound of the
scraping resembled that produced by ma
sons' trowel i in spreading raortsr.thoogh
much louder, and there was also a hack
ing and catting noise occasionally, as
some more obstinate bunch of barnacles
clung with greater tenacity than their
neighbors. It was a wholesale slaughter
of these parasitic animals.which in soma
spots incrasted the bottom of the ship
totno depth oi an men ana a nan to
two inches.
"They're onlv .smull cSinyer3,thei3 bar
nacles," said the Pacific mall man, "but
like fleas on a nervous individual, they
are very much in the way, though they
are little."
"To what extent do they cLnuago the
bottom of an iron ship?"" asked the re
porter. "It isn't for the damage to the ahip so
much as the way they impede its progress
that they are complained of." was the
replv.
"How much timo each day of sailing
would this steamer lose by having a coat
ing of barnacles on her bottom?
"From fifteen to twenty-five mile-."
COrPEB, WOOD AhD ICON.
'Do thoy not grow thicker on wooden
bottomed vessels than on iron?"
"Yes; bat they are not so thick on copper-bottoms,
and that in one of the chief
objects in having n vessel coppor-bottoni-
uu JLliC uoiiiuujun uir hjv iiav vuo fUAJuAAv
ous naturo of the copper and do not bo
gin to cling to it until it has been par
tially neutralized by tho action of the
salt water. Iron ships cannot, of course,
have copper bottoms, as the expense
would be too great in making a solid bot
tom of copper, and there is no satisfac
tory way of attaching tho sheeting. To
partially obviate the tendency of barna
cles to collect on iron vessels, a strong
solution of verdigris is now mixed with
other ingredients and used on tho bottom
below the red water-line, and for this
reason all the lower outside surface of
this company now have a green color,
such as you now see they are putting on
the under side of the New Vork stem."
The reporter watched the p-ocess of
scraping and observed that -as fast as a
large section of the barnicle-covered sur
faoe was cleaned nnd tho red iron rust
was made visible .underneath, it was
washed clean by another setot men, who
were followed by the painters, with pots
of a steaming mixture from furnaces
along the ship's side. Over each of these
furnaces was a tank filled with a green
liquid that bubbled and 'hissed and sent
forth an odor which one could not but
consider poisonous from the nature of
the compound whence it issued.
A HEAVX EXPENSE.
"How long does, it take for a gang of
workmen like this to removo the bar
naclos from a ship?" asked the reporter.
"About two days Sometimes they put
on as many men as can work convenient
ly on a vessel's bottom. You see the idea
is to save expense. It costs a vessel from
$500 to $1000 a day, according to her ton
nage, to lie on this dock, and the men
who do the work on this steamer are
furnished by the Mail company and are
instructed to push the job as faBt as
possible. It would cost the company at
much dockage each day if only two men
were employed in cleaning a bottom as
it would if there were 100 at work."
"Does the green mixture that they are
now applying act as a preventive against
the accumulation of the barnacles?"
"Only in a measure. It requires but a
few months for the salt water to dissolve
it and eat into the iron and form rough
rusty places, where the little dingers
gather and grow. They spread very fast
and to a considerable depth when a ves
sel is lying still for an extended period,
but often on the trip to China and re
turning a vast number will spread them
selves all over a steamer's bottom. It is
something of a mystery how they collect
so easily when a vessel is in motion."
"Are there not other nnd effeotusl
means for preventing their presence?"
"There may be," was tho reply, ,but
they have not yet been discovered. A
thousaud different preparations have
been tried, but none of thorn are of much
account, if wo except the verdigris com
pound, and that is far from satisfactory.
A fortune awaits the lucky man who can
discover a comparatively inexpensive and
at the same time dnrable mixture, whioh.
when applied to a Bhip's bottom, will
render it so distasteful a place of resi
dence to these barnacles that they will
no longer infest it." S. F. Chronicle.

The title to the tide lands of thia city
and stato are perploxing ths rightful
owners and the courts of this state to a
degree that will involve ovary separate
pieco in litigation, long continued annoy
anoo and expense, and in many instances
in downright robbery. The question who
are the rightful riparian owners of tide
lands whero the United Slates aro and
were tho primary ownors of tho shore
lands has not been as yet settled suffi
cient to make any precedent. The tide
lands of the old Atlantic states, never
originally belonged to the government.
In the new states the primary ownership
of the landjwas as follews: Florida, Spain;
Louisiana, France; Texas and California,
Mexico, and it has been Oregon's mis
fortune to be the first state to have to
settle who are the rightful owners of the
tide lands of this state under the law of
the United States. The courts of the
Atlantic states have had to deal with the
tide lands on the Atlantic coast entirely
under the old ltoman and English laws.i
and more particularly the English laws
governing crown lands, une English
law5 governing tide lands are that thev
belong solely to the crown "of England
snd ore not saleable, and that is the onlv
law in regard to tide lands either in Kng
land or as vet the United States. Sinya-1
lar as It may seem in all saiW
at law in the old eastern states
when passing upon the rights of crown
or tide lands, they have predicated their
decisions upon the theory that in admin-
isienng iuu psruumur mw iuo govern
ment of these United States was and Is
the king, end the states the. crown, and
by virtue of the states being the crown
they fell heir to tho tide lands, the same
as the church does under the old Roman
laws, and the crown of England does un
der English law; and now, hero in Or
gon, another new ana important factor
in regard to tho tide or crown lands pre
sents itself, and it is as follews: The
United States government was unques
tionably the primary owner of the
lands, and the United States gov
ernment sold the shore or king's
rights to the bank owner with tho full
privileges to build wharves and use the
rivers or sea as a public highway and
thoy are in duty bound to prevent any
and all persons from obstructing or in
interfering with tho open passago of
the bank owner of any anu all lands
called tide lands, where the United
States were the primary owners of tho
land. The bank owners of the tide lands
in this city and state, acquired these
public rights and hadn lawful prospec
tive ownership, even beforo the general
government created tho stato of Oregon,
and hence all of the crown rights to
thoe lands must cease when the state
has perfected and completed the title of
tho bank or shore owner and all contro
versy must end finally in expense and
disappointment to all parties concerned
except the courts and attorneys.

The Dalle Mountaineer&asa: "In the
last two or three years wheels for catch
ing salmon have been multiplied in al
most every available ploco on the Colum
bia river. At the Cascades thoy are in
operation in almost every eddy, and the
number of the silvery tribe drawn in is
astonishing. Sometimes the baskets
manage to capture a sturgeon of enor
mous size, and it is with difficulty hels
hauled out. To tourists these wheels fur
nish a constant attraction, and at every
stopping place of the train the opportun
ity is embraced of visiting these modern
dovicea for capturing the finny tribe.
Above this city aro two or three in opera
tion, and we understand they average
large quantities of salmon every day."

School 3Cattrrs Is District 5o. 13.
AsToaii, June. 21, 1&&.
Ed. AsiefiiAX: As the voters of school
district Nd. 18 are called upon to meet on
the 28th inst, to consider several propo
sitions, it may le well to give Its financial
history.
The school was organized four years
ago, and has been carried on at an ex
pense of about $1,500 per annum, for
teachers, fael and incidentals.
. Two lots cast $1,200; grading, stone
wall and street improvements, $800; fur
niture, $500; and building, $2,000. Total
$4,500.
The district owe3 $1,000, and has $900
cosh on hand. School has been taught
for ten months a year, and by two teach
ers; average attendance now in one room
J3 about S3, and in the others 55.
By a little change in the order of the
fcchool the same teachers can carry on
tho school for another year. To employ a
third teacher end rent a room wilt cost
$800 extra.
To build will cost not lea.s than $3,000,
and then have but one furnished room.
Estimating a shrinkage of assessable
property this year, it is probable that
the same per cent, of taxation will yield
about $1,000, and that an much more will
be received from county and state, whicjj.
added to the amount on hand, makes
$2,900.
Expense of school $1,500
Debt 1,000 .
$2-li0
Balance to credit of distriot next
year . $400
vv men snail it be get out or dobt this
year, or get in deeper.-or increase the
taxation?
Our neighbor has a finer looking build
ing than we, but it has an annual inter
est of $2,500 to jiay, besides 500 to take
care of the house; also $4,250 per annum
for six teaohers; all of which it is woll to
consider theso dull times. Votkb.
