"St ""- f cn he gaitji Sorfnw, ASTORIA, OREGON: WEDNESDAY JULY 16. 18M Both presidential nominations were made on Friday. A bound trip of the Cunard. steam er Service- costs $65,000. The sohool of the prophets has arisen in politics, and there is no end of augury. Ml The "dark horse" has gone to his stable for another four years, to feed on disappointed hopes. Steel rails are now going off in large lots at 30 per ton, the lowest price ever known for them. Senator Plumb, of Kansss, was originally a printer, but is now worth $1,000,000, and is in some other busi ness. A siXTi'-rouND salmon recently caught in the Toy is the heaviest fish caught in any river in Great Britain this year. 9 Gen. John C. Fbemont, the Ee publican candidate for president in 1856, has come out in favor of Butler for president. Ten conductors on the Northern Pacific have been discharged on sus picion that they were not doing the fair thing by the company, The Shoshone Indians, at their an nual festival recently,danced for three days and nights without stopping and they didn't call it a hop either. Since January 1st, 192.171 immi grants have been landed at Castle Garden, New York city. In the same time last year 226,303 were landed. Eiohabd K Fox, the publisher of the Police Gazette, is said upon good authority to make $100,000 a year out of that precious compound of scandal and filth. Philadelphia has a man, a major in the United States army, whose heart is on the right side. It is the second case of the kind known to medical men. It is said that notaries public were first appointed by tho fathers of the Christian church to collect the acts or memoirs of the lives of the first century martyrs. The "Western Union company has in the last three years and a half paid $18,000,000 in dividends and expend ed $5,700,000 more of its earnings in extending its plant The Pennsylvania ''independents" have declared for Blaine. It is not at all probable that the Keystone State 'would in any event do other wise than give a Republican ma jority. The summer journey of Justice Miller of the supreme court of the United States, and his family, over the Union Pacific railroad to Ore gon, may be extended as far as Alaska. The secretary of the interior has telegraphed to the "Walla "Walla land office instructions to allow ludiausto file on public lands within railroad limits where settlement antedates the grant. It is stated, by authority, that Roscoe Conkling will, under no cir cumstances, lend his support to any presidential candidate whomsoever. It is not probable the election will be postponed on that account. - m -. It is stated that the Prohibitory convention which met at Chicago the other day and nominated Ex-Senator Pomeroy, of Kansas, for president, is not the regular convention. The lat ter is to meet at Pittsburg next "Wednesday. London and Calcutta have had telegraphic communication direct, seveu thousand miles. How long will it be before the message sent by the operator in London will go clear around the globe, and register itself in the same room in which it is sent. Bets on the presidential election are now in order. Someone has said that "Betting is a fool's argument.'' Well, maybe it is, if a man bets the way he believes, regardless of proba bilities, but if he bets to win and wins, hois certainly not chargeable with folly. Men ofttimes bet one way and vote another, and win on both bet and vote. Albeady some one has raked up an old prophecy that no candidate "whose initial was "C" could ever oc cupy the White House. It is difficult to see what bar that should consti tute, but those who repeat the proph ecy point to the fact that Clay, Cass, Crawford, Corwiu and Calhoun, five as smart men as this country pro duced, all tried to get there and all failed. Grave repoi ts come from Sout hern -Trance regarding the spread of chol era That dreadful disease is re ported to have also broken out in St Petersburg. Eussia. If its transit across the ocean can be delayed till the late' fall, it is possible that this country may escape. Cholera visited d decimated California in Novem- ber,1850, and swept. New Orleans in August, 1856. It is unknown in Or egon and Washingthn, and will prob ably remain so. Thebe are in round numbers about fifty thousand postmasters in the United States, whose salaries run from $8,000 per annum down to nine cents. The individual receiving the largest salary in this -capacity is the postmaster of New York, whose salary is $8,000, the same as that of the postmaster general himself. The Standard has been gleefully rubbing its hands in joy at the pub lished allegation that Blaine fur nished a substitute in war times. This was a dreadful thing for Blaine to do, and it ought to count for a good deal twenty years after. But Mr. Cleveland did precisely the self same thing and yet he is none the worse man for it It seems absurd that political parties should go to the enormous expense of indulging in national con ventions for the purpose of choosing their candidates for the presidency when by a simple and economical ar rangement they could agree upon a choice and avoid all bickerings and heartburnings. In the wild and un tutored west there is a fascinating game with the euphonious name of "fly-loo."- It consists of placing lumps of sugar on a table in front of the players and waiting. The owner of a lump, on which a fly first alights is declared winner and entitled to the btakes. Let the presidential can didates meet at some convenient place with their lumps of sugar and leave the result to the flies. Tho plan is perfectly feasible, as "sugar" always plays a prominent part in the game of politics. The most serious objection to the scheme is that the horde of hungry office-seekers would not be contented with isolated lumps. They prefer to draw their "sugar" ad libitum from well-filled barrels.
