Since noon yesterday, soys the Orego
nian, stook in the Portland Tug Boat

which $14,000 is awarded to the tug Pio
neer and crew. In the first year of its
existence the company went behind about
$9,000, which stockholders had to make
good. The amount awarded yesterday
will make up this loss and leave a small
dividend besides.

The Standard says that after exploring
the Yukon river in Northwestern Alaska,
Schwatka descended to the sea striking
the central channel of the noted
Japan current, and examined the Alieu
tian group. On the Lieutenant's return
from the Yukon expedition he stopped in
Portland and entered into confidential
terms with Dundee Reid, in respect to
using the Perennial islands for cattle
ranches, to be conduoted under the aus-
gices of a corporation to be organized in
ootland with slathers of capital to back
the enterprise, for which purpose Reid
left Portland several weeks aco.
Schwatka, it is understood, is take to spec
ial superintendence of the islands as a sort
of resident manager. This is the way
the Army and Navy Journal accounts
for Sohwatka's resignation from the
United States army.

THE ASTORIA STREET RAILWAY COMPAST-
The following paper was filed in the
county olerk's office yesterday:
JLBTICLES OK INCOETOBATION.
These presents witnesseth that we, J. O.
Bozorth, A. F. Johns and Scott Bozorth,
all of Astoria, Clatsop county, Oregon,
havo this 9th day of September, 1834, as
sociated ourselves together for the pur
pose of forming a corporation under the
general laws of the state of Oregon, do
hereby make and subscribe these articles
of incorperation:
The name assumed by this corporation
and by which it shall bo known is the As
toria Railway Company, and its duration
shall be perpetual.
The enterprise and business of this
company shall be the construction of and
operating a railway or railroad for tho
transportation of passengers, baggage
and freight for hire; to purchase, receive,
hold and sell real estate and personal
property; to use steam, horse and other

ness shall be in Astoria, Clatsop county,
Oregon.
The amount of capital stock of this
organization shall be $100,000, to be di

The eastern terminus of said railway

gon. THE SALVAGE AWARD.
The decision of Judge Deady in the
suit of Captain Flavel against the Queen
of Ute Pacific, the principal points of
which were published in yesterday's As
tobian, has occasioned considerable in
terest. The opinion of many is that the
percentage of salvage nine is low.
Taking that as a basis nothing but tho
natural desire to save property would im
pel evon ordinary effort in case of marine
mishap.
The details of settlement are somewhat
complicated, and it will probably be a
month before the matter will bo settled.
Should either party in the suit conclude
to appeal the case it may be years before
tho question is settled in the court of
highest jurisdiction.
According to the terms of the decision
the Pioneer would get about $10,000, tho
-remainder going to the crew and to pay
lor expenses; the tugs Jlsioria, Urcnham
and Columbia about $20,000, the re
mainder, as in tho case of the Pioneer,
going as awards to tho crews and for ex
penses. The Canby would get about
$4,000, tho Miles $280; making a little
over $34,000 of tho total award of $64,000
to be paid to the vessels.
THOl'liH DEAD, 1ET SI'EAKETH.
It is not quite five years since Gen.
Garfield, on tho eve of the Ohio election,
in one of the most telling speeches of
his life, made at Cleveland, addressed
the young men as follews: Oh, young
man, come out of that! That is no place
in which to put your young life. Come
out, and come over into this camp of
liberty, of order, of law, of freedom, of
justice, of all that is glorious under
these night stars. Is there any death
hero in our camp? Yes! yes! Three
hundred and fifty thousand soldiers, the
noblest band that over trod the earth,
died to make this camp a camp of glory
and of liberty forever. But there are no
dead issues here. There aro no dead
ideas here. Hang out your banner from
under tho bluo sky this night until it
shall sweop tho green turf under your
feet. It hangs over our camp. Read
away up under the stars tho inscription
we have written on it, lo! these twenty
five years. Twenty-five years ago the
Republican party was married to liberty,
and this is our silver "wedding, fellow
citizens. A worthily married couple love
each other better on tho day of their sil
ver wedding than on the day of their
first espousals; and we aro truer to liberty
to-day and dearer to God than wo were
when we spoke our first word of liberty.
Read away up under tho sky across our
starry banner, that first word wo uttered
twenty-five years ago. "What was it?
"Slavery shall never extend over another
foot of the territory of the great west."
Is that dead or alive? Alive, thank God,
forever more! And truer to-night than
the hour it was written. Then it was a
hope, a promise, a purpose. To-night it
is equal with the stars immortal history
and immortal truth. Come down the
glorious steps of our banner. Every
great record we have made wo havo vin
dicated with our blood and with our
truth. It sweeps the ground, and it
touches tho stars. Come here, young
man, and put in your young life where
all is living, and where nothing is dead,
but the heroes that defended it.

BLAISE'S MAD CAREER.
Exposures which Will Hake ItecVlws Voter
Shndder.
James Gillespie Blaine was born on a
canal boat, a thousand miles from land,
consequently he's not a native of any
country.
When he was only 16 months old he
scuttled the craft, drowned his nurse and
washed himself ashore with a bar of
soap.
Up to tho age of three years ho lived
in a cave on the coast of Maine and sub
sisted chiefly on the stones that lined the
shore. As be never had a cradle, those
were tho only "little rocks" he had any
experience with until he reached man
hood's estate.
"When he was four years old he volun
tarily attended a village school. In tho
course of a few days he whipped the
teacher for accusing him of trying to
tattoo a scholar.
At the early age of five he made tho
startling discovery that there were some
birds in last year's nest. It was owing
to this fact that ho was conirellcd to
leavo town.
During his sixth summer ho cut his
wisdom teeth and a cherry tree belonging
to the village constable.
It was not until he attained his eighth
year that he began to exhibit evidences
of the tender passion. Then it was that
he astonished the community by eloping
with his washerwoman. His admirers
claimed that the only mitigating circum
stance in this affairs du caeur was his in
nate love of "soap."
In the course of a few months he be
came tired of his affiliation with one so
far beneath him in the social scale. Con
sequently he ran awny with the daughter
of an editor.
Through her influence he acquired a
tasto for literature, and at the age of ten
started a newspaper.
That it was an unprecedent success
was evident from the fact that before he
had attained his twelfth birthday the
libel suits pgainst him aggregated :j100,
000.000. He then felt that he had found that the
occupation for which nature had intend
ed him.
His thrilling description of elopements
that never occurred; his scathing denun
ciations of crimes that were never com
mitted; his bitter attacks upon men who
never existed, and his marvellous ac
counts of imaginary snakes all tended
to make that community as lively as a
picnic party in the immediate vicinity of
a hornet's nest.
Being of an ambitious disposition, he
soon discovered that tho circle in which
he rovolved and caused revolutions was
too circumscribed for him; so he laid
down his scissors and pen with the de
termination to become a statesman.
Before he arrived at man's estate, ere
yet the dewy down had shed its lumin
ous lustre on his upper lip, ho became an
authority on things political.
"Was there a primary? The juvenile
James packed it previously, thus secur
ing his own election as delegate to the
convention.
Was there a convention? Tho preco
cious politician placed himself in such
proximity to the teller's bcx that he al
ways managed to get a majority of the
votes.
Thus the years of his youth glided
away, and each succeeding decade showed
that he had a firmer footing on the lad
der of fame.
Ono day while wandering along tho
seashore in search of the philosopher's
stone a happy thought struck him.
His face flushed with joy. his chest
heaved with emotion and his eyes shone
with a light never seen on land or sea.
"To ordinary mortals," he murmured,
"these huge pebbles on tho beach are
only pebbles, but to me they are pregnant
with ponderous possibilities. Shakes
peare saw 'sermons in stones and books
in the running brooks.' I behold mil
lions in these little rocks.''
It was not until years after that he
hatched out the scheme which was then
in embryo.
The little rocks were shipped to South
America and subsequently returned in
the shape of guano. It was by this master-stroke
of genius that tho erudite
statesman made his fortune.
A little later, as all tho world knows, he
wrote a book. This culminating effort of
his life was tho means of procuring him
the nomination for the presidency.
If he can secure a sufficient number of
bold book agents to intimidate voters his
eleotion is certain.
Recent reference to tho files of his
former paper fchows that he is tLe author
of "Beautiful Snow." His fntmds aro
endeavoring to destroy these evidences of
his youthful depravity, as they aro cal
culated to injure his chances in tho pres
ent campaign.

X0RE IX TRE MAX THAI? IS THE LASD.
I knowed a man, which he lived in Jones,
"Which Jones is a county of red hills and
stones,
And he lived pretty much by get tin' of
loans.
And his mules were nothin' but skin and
bones.
And ho had Mout a thousand acres
o' land.
This man which his name it was also
Jones
He swore that he'd leave them old red
hills and stones,
Fur he couldn't make nuthin'but jeller-
ish cotton,
And little o' that, and hia fences was
rotten.
And what little corn he had, hit was
boughten,
And danged if a livin' was in the
land.
And the longer he swore the madder he
got,
And he riz and he walked to the stable
lot,
And he hollered to Tom to come thar and
hitch,
For to emigrate somewhar whar land
was rich,
And to quit raisin' cockburs, thistles and
sich,
And a wastin' their time on the cus
sed land.
So him and Tom they hitched up the
mules,
Pertestin' that folks was mighty big
fools,
That 'ud stay in Georgy their lifetime
out,
Jest scratchin' a livin' when all of 'em
mought
Git places in Texas whar cotton would
sprout
By the timo you conld plant in the
land.
And ho driv by n house whar u man
named Brown
Was livin.' not far from the edgo of town,
And he bantered Brown for to buy his
place,
And said that bein' as money was skace,
And bein' as sheriffs was hard o' face.
Two dollars an acre would git the
land.
They closed at a dollar and fifty cents,
And Jones he bought him a wagon and
tents,
And loaded his corn and his wimmin and
truck,
And moved to Texas, which it tuck,
His entire pile, with the bost of luck,
To git thar and git him a little land.
But Brown moved out on the old Jones
farm,
And he rolled up his breeches and bared
his arm,
And ho picked all tho rocks from offn
tho gronn',
And ho rooted it np and plowed it down,
Then he plowed his corn and his
wheat in the land.
Five years glid by, and Brown one day
("Which he'd got so fat that he wouldn't
weigh),
Was a settin' down sorter lazily,
To the bulliest dinner you ever see,
When one o' the children jumped on his
knee
And says: Yan's Jones, which you
bought his land.
And thar was Jones, standin' out at tho
fence,
And ho hadn't no wagin nor mules nor
tents,
For he had left Texas afoot and cum
To Georgy to see if he couldn't git sum
Employment, and he was lookin' as hum
ble as cf
Ho had never owned any land.
But Brown ho axed him and he sot
Him down to his Tittles smokin' hot,
And when he bad filled hisself and tho
floor.
Brown looked at him sharp and riz and
swore
That "whether men's land was rich or
poor,
Thar was more in tho man than thar
was in the land."
