CD- '- ' , , . - VOL. XXII, NO. 18. ASTORIA, OREGOft'TUJSSDAY, JULY 29, 1884. PRICE, FIVE CENTS -fr w, ANOTHER ARCTIC TRAGEDY. Intrrc-tin:; War Incident. TRANSPORTATION LINES. BUSINESS CABDS. Tiiestory of another mighty tragedy has come down from the northern seas. Seventeen brave men, pinioned upon an ice floe, starved and frozen to death in a long agony. The pitiless northern winter would yield them nothing but a winding sheet of frost and a couch o ice to die on. The story emphasizes anew the wicked ness of tempting the fury of the bar barous zone, which offers nothing to the living but unspeakable hardships, and locks the earth even against mak ing a grave for the dead. Science asks no more such costly sacrifices, and can give no promise of a return commensurate with the risk, even if the utmost dreamed of could be ac complished. Nature need not be blamed for these deaths. It has placed its warnings on trees and shrubs, and chiseled them on the glaciers, warning daring mortals back from those fastnesses, where winter holds its central seat; where the icy wind and the burning frost are his ministers, and vhere, in a hell's cauldron, his storms are brewed. As ships sail northward the tree degenerates into a shrub, the shrub itself disappears at last, and all the life that is left is that of the fishes in the sea, a few ferocious animals on land, and some birds that on tired wings have drifted thither. All gentleness died lower down, save such as the she bear gives to her surly cubs. On every lonelj coast and in every living thing the warning is plainly written that it is no place for men. And there is no more cause for daring the dangers there. Brave men can well afford to die for a principle,, can smilingly look upon inevitable death, if they know that because of their deaths, those who are left will be better and happi er because of the sacrifice. So there was an excuse for the act when the first explorers sailed away, to see if new channels could not be found which might bo utilized by commerce; or if by lifting the mystery which surrounds the pole, science might be enriched. But most of that is passed, and the world is settling down to the belief that men who go on Arctic ex ploring expeditions now, go out in the face of dangers which it is little credit to face, and that when they die -they die as the fool dieth. By this we mean no disrespect to the few who have returned or to the many who have died in the well-nigh fruit less trial; but it is true that civiliza tion should interfere and stop these murders. There are better ways for men to live than in facing those storms, more noble ways to dio than to freeze and starve on an ice floe. Salt Lake Tribune. Capt. Alnsworth's Views. San Fbanctsco, July 27. Capt. J. O. Ainsworth, just returned from a visit of two months in Oregon and Washington, said to the Orcgonian correspondent to-day that he had never seen the country in a more generally prosperous condition. The enormous crops now being harvested, he said, would relieve the country from the little financial pinch which it has suffered in the past few months. He said that the future of Portland never seemed brighter to him than now, and that its prosperity seemed substantial and permanent. The people, he said, are building somewhat in advance of business de demandsj but the effect of mistakes of this kind would fall only on a few. Railroad building in partsof eastern and western Oregon, UapL Ainsworth thinks, has gone far ahead of the real needs of the country, and the disadvantage of too much and ex travagant railroad construction will fall upon the people, who must be taxed heavily to make dividends for all these roads. On the whole, Capt. Ainsworth thinks the country is coming through the changes of the past year in good shape, and that" it will progress more rapidly and be in every way better off for its new op portunity. Successful Electric Railway. Cleveland, July 26. The first suc cessful commercial electric railway in America was started in operation in this city to-day, by the East Cleve land Street Railroad Companjr, who have just completed a mile of road, and run cars on it for the first time. The experiment was so successful that the company expect to change their system, comprising over twenty miles, into electric railroads. The "system used is a combination of the Brush and Knight & Bently systems, and the current was carried on under ground conductors, laid in conduits like those of cable Toads. The cars were started and stopped and reversed with the greatest ease, without the disagreeable jerking incident to cable and horse roads. Economy in run ning expenses is claimed to be greater than that of the cable roads, and the cost of constructioa less than one third as great Any number of cars up to fifteen cars can be run at one time, on a single cirouit, and from one machine, which is a result not at tained by any European systems now operating. The success of the road will make a sensation in both street railroad and electrical development, as well as enhance the value of street railroad property. It is reported that Hon. Thomas A. Hendrioks generally wears a turn down collar and a plain black tie. This intelligence should do much to adefstrength to the Democratic na tional ticket, but perhaps it is only a campaign statement and therefore not to be depended upon. It is im portant, however, if 'true. A mining company of Dead wood offers to send to the New Orleans exposition this fall an exhibit of gold bullion, in one solid piece, worth $500,000, providing the various coun ties of the territory will unite in de fraying the expenses of transporta tion. JEsop wrote the fable of the frog and the ox before the anti-Blaine party was born, but it is applicable all the same. The following incident in the life of Congressman Blackburn of Kentucky which occurred when he was in the Confederate army, was related by him recently to a "Washington letter writ er: Tour days before I went to the front with my regiment we had a lit tle girl baby. -She is now grown, and jou always see iter wmi me at any social gathering. Well, in our army the furloughs came very rarely. When we got into line there was no great chance for a man to get home. It was about three years afterwards that a few of us were one night going down the Mississippi on a river steamer. I had been sick and was re turning to my command, but was pretty well broken up even then. As for money, we did not have any, and tne night was hot as I laid down on the deck, my throat almost parched with thirst Pretty soon a little girl came along with a big glass of lemon ade. I tell you it looked good to me. She saw me eyeing it, stopped a min ute, looked doubtfully at mo and finalli' came up to my side. 'You lodk as if you wanted something to drink,' she said, and offered me the glass. It wasn't quite the square thing to do, but I took it and handed it back to her empty. It was like nectar to me. Then I thanked the little creature and sent her away. Soon after, just like every child, she came back, leading her mother to see the poor soldier. By Jupiter, it was my wife, and the girl was the baby whom I had last seen as a baby just born. You can imagine the reunion. They were with my brother's family, and happened to be going down the river. That was the only time during the four years' fighting that I saw my wife and baby, and under theso cir cumstances what man could ever for get itf ' Another bloodthirsty raid is report ed from the Montenegro-Albanian dis trict, a number of Albanian Moham medans from the Gusiuje district! having attacked a Montenegrin fron tier village and killed thirteen of the inhabitants, cutting off the heads of their victims rnd carrying them away as trophies. Revenge was the mo tive for the atrocity, a number of Montenegrins having a short time since murdered two Albanian Mo hammedans. This barbarous crime is the more grievous, inasmuch as the delimitation of the Gusinje-Pla-va districts was about to be finally settled, Mustapha Assym Pasha and Prince Nikita having just finished all the necessary preliminaries. The na tives of the districts, however, are now much excited by the recant out rages, and the Albanian Mohamme dans have informed Mustapha Assym Pasha that they will- resist to the utmost any attempt to curtail Alban ian ruthority. Gen. Norton is in London making preliminary arrangements for an American exhibition there in 1886. It will include American products and manufactures, practically dis playing all the processes which are of American invention. There is a great deal of billing and cooing going on at the seaside. The principal part of the billing is being done by the hotel-keepers. Although a cylone may take away the roof of a house it has never been known to carry off a mortgage.
