Ho is . first-class workman, and if you havo a boat sail or any other kind of a sail to make ho will do it for you, neat, quick and cheap. Lu the spring a brighter color glows upon the burnished dove; in the spring a vonng man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of leve: in the spring a young man or an old one likes a good suit of clothes such as ni-iv be found at C. II. Cooper's. County Clerk Trenchard was among those complimented by a voto for U. is. senator last Friday, he receiving 157 votes on the lGth ballot. Ho started in well, but, like others, found that the fickle leg islators could not remain true to any one very long. The bright sunlight has caused the house and garden plants to bud in fruit ful promise of brilliant blossoms. The grass on .the hillsides is a beautiful em erald, tho littlo pollywogs wriggle their tails in the sedgy marshes and the frogs chant a noisy evening chorus. Onion sociables are the latest. This is the plan. Six ladies take an onion with them into a room, and one of them takes a bite out of it. Then a young gentle man is admitted, and if, after kissing thorn oil, ho fails to tell which of them bit tho onion, all the girls arc obliged to kiss him. Geo. McEwan fell from tho top of Par ker's new wharf, where he has been work ing, this morning, a distance of thirteen feet, breaking two rib3 and injuring him self internally. When picked up he was unconscious. Surgical aid was promptly procured and in a short time he will, doubtless, be all right. Beginning next Sunday a daily mail will run between Astoria and Oysterville. This is a long step in advance, and is a much needed improvement. Now that the route has been extended to Oyster ville it ought to be carried as far as Ho quiam and Moutesano. Those places need a dailv mail to Astoria aud are en titled to it." A sudden death occurred in Oysterville on the evening of tho 18th. While in at tendance at a temperanco meeting Gus tav Ukkola. better known as Charles Harrison, was seized with spasms, threw up his hands and fell over, breathing his last a few minutes after being carried to tho open air. Deceased was a former resident of Astoria, bttt had been resid ing at Uay Center for the past year. He was 42 years of age. The Portland Juvmul of Commerce learns that tho Wildwootl.

So many erroneous statements have ap peared regarding the closing hours of the Oregon legislature, that, having been an eye witness of the extraordinary occur rences, we have thought it well while the circumstances were fresh in our memory to publish an account of them that it may bo iu projK-r shape for future refer ence. Some of the following was tele graphed to The Astoeian Saturday morning, but by some mischance did not appear. At half seven Friday evening the Tepra sentative ehatsber in which tho joint con vention was sitting .was packed with peo ple. Two hundred ladies, seated on the right hand side of the hall, gave that part by contrast the appearance of steadi ness. The rest of the throng was like a heaving sea. Such men as Kiddle and Lsiuenweber could, by reason of their stature, be distinguished above the tur bulent crowd. For the most part it was buzz. There was no distinguishing be tween legislators and those to whom the privileges of tho chamber had been ex tended. TheOrd ballot had just been announced, being in subitance the same a3 the preceding forty, aud Wcatherford offered a resolution that the convention adjourn at 102J0. Gilbert moved an amendment that it be 11, which was adopted. The members sent out for lunch and every desk was made an im promptu t:ble, with cold meats, bread, cako aud pie. Some began to smoke, others to yawn, more chewing unlightcd cigars, and the majority pulling aud button-holing, while every minute developed a fresh prophecy. Balloting went en: as each was announced the prophecy was made that "ihe next one will elect' At last when the uiinio of Lyle of The Dalles, was called, lie cried out "John H. Mitchell." There was a little applause, and those who had pricked up their ears listened for a repetition of the name. At last on a succeeding ballot Lyle was re inforced by Barnos, of Multnomah, who amid loudcheering, voted for Mitchell. Immediately Lee moved for a recess, but the convention voted down that and all other efforts to confer, and the balloting proceeded. At 10 o'clock it was apparent that Hirsch'fi sun had pet. His forces began to weaken, and for five minutes there was a lull in which, had thero been such a possibility as there being a name pre sented on which .Republicans could agree, he would have been undoubtedly elected. In that five minutes, it. for the first time, became apparent to Hirsch's supportors that the others would not support him, and it became equally plain to those who opposed himt that it was either Iiirsch, Hirsch's choice, or no one. They set their teeth and doggedly determined that it should be "no one." The one last op portunity for tho Republican majority to relieve themselves from the disgrace that is now their share, passed; the battle was lost in internecine dissensien: the Democrats, who had, by Whittaker's ad vice, kept their hands off, began jockey ing, and it was plain that tho outcome would bo no senator. At 10.40, the sixty-eighth ballot began, and Democratic tactics became apparent as each one voted for his neighbor or some one else, the vote being made as scattering as possible. At 10:4., before the result of the ballot could be an nounced, Myers of Clackamas, jumped up and changed his vote from Eftlnger to Hanna; this was the signal; and for the next 10 minutes Democrats kept singing out, "Mr. President, I change my vote from Slater to Myers." Mr. Speaker. I change my vote from Efiinger to Slater." Of course this was done to create delay, and some of the Republicans iu whom the contemptible feeling that had taken possession of them had not quite mas tered the plain promptings of duty to their parti', changed their votes from where they had been thrown away to tho strongest candidate. It was a death-bed repentance. It came too late. Amid yells of "Time" tho Democrats pointed to the nanus ot the clock which indicated 11 v. at., the hour set for adjournment, and the president announced tho result of the ballot, thanked the members iron ically, aud declared the convention adjourned. Like men who when temporarily mad have scuttled the ship they sailed'on F00 miles from land, the Republicans looked at one another while the Democrats hug ged each other aud shook hands, and capered around, each one on a broad grin. Hirsch sat near the clerk's desk, the picture of dignified composure, his countenance "more in sorrow than in anger," looking calmly at tho ruin of his hopes. To many there it was a pain ful spectacle. Thero were men Chore who had spent time, moneys and what ever ability their Creator favored them with to secure a Republican majority, and right there, iu the legislature of Oregon, in joint convention, with the silken folds of the national flag rustling in the night air, those "intelligent" men had so far forgotten their character as representatives of tho people in seeing nothing but their own miserable selves, that they had deliberately placed in jeopardy'the supremacy of their party in the senate of the United States the only branch of tho national government left in Republican control. To a truo Re publican the scene was a sad one. To those who care for party the same as a calf cares for a cow s teat, it was, per haps, ouo devoid of regret. A few quick wittod parliamentarians resolved upon a scheme, and when the house reassembled in its own room Geer got the floor as soon as he could and had read a resolution rescinding the joint resolution to adjourn at midnight. It was rushed through on party lines and a page dashed out of the door to .notify the senate: tho house immediately adjourned to ten the next day. In the senate was the real circus. It had come together soon after tho disso lution of the joint convention, and al most immediately Simon moved that the resolution adjourning at midnight bo rescinded. Bilyeu of Linn then arose, and with one eye on tho clock aud tho other on the president started in in a loud, incoherent ,disconnected way, his evident intention being to talk till 12 o'clock. Everyone was excited. Waldo kept hammering a little block on the table with his hammer, and feebly re marked "Order, gentlemen," but he might as well have been whistling a Scotch reel: no one heard or noticed him. Bilyeu waxed louder in saying the few words that wore his stock in trade over and over again, tho senators all left their seats and advanced toward the center of the room excent Mr. Hare, who chuckled. lit a short black pipe and seemed be tween tho nulls of smoke to rather eniov the situation. Bilyeu showed signs of weakening bnt the Uemocrats "whooped him up;" Dorris and weatherford sid ling up to him and urging him not to quit, that he had the floor and could hold it, etc. Simon rose and demanded the previous question, when the excitement became intense. Weatherford and Dor ris advanced threateningly toward the president's desk, Hirsch walked around and stood on the first step of the plat form, and John Myers comiug forward swung his arms and bellowed denuncia tion against the men who would raise a hnnd against liberty. Tho lobby filled with a noisy crowd, some women who had come to see what was going on squeezed their way back in great trepi dation, aud more than one thought that thero was going to be n row. Iu the midst of tho nproar and while Dorris, "Weatherford, Bilyeu and Myers wore split ting their throats and the spectator's eara, n mnc rjimfi rnsliinfr in errinr otlt "A ! message from the house.' "Bilyeu, who ! had tho floor, paused for a moment, when j the clerk began to read the message, ! which was that the houso had rescinded I the resolution adjourning at eleven. The j question was immediately raised by Si j mon and pat by the president, who de j clared it carried. Then ensued a scene the like of which, old-timers asstsro the writer, was never before witnessed in an Oregon legislature. For the honor of the state let it be hoped it will never be seen again. Amid a stormy clamor and tumult of voices, the roar of John Myers was heard; he advanced in front of Hirsch, who looked as impassive as a Sphinx, and shaking his fist under Pres ident Waldo's nose, he uttered his pro test against what he was pleased to term an outrage of the rights of the senate and of the people. In vain did Yirnldo ham mer on his little marble block. Myers & Co., were wound up to run till twelve o'clock, and the moment the hands pointed to midnight the thunder ceased, dying away in hoarse murmurs as the champions of "the right.sof the people" took their seats. The senate then ad journed to 10 the following inoniing. Considerable has been said about "hip pockets" and "rushing' and "pistols." Thero was nothing of tho kind. Nobody was in the slightest personal danger, ex cept tho Democratic quartet who seemed to be in danger of bursting a bloodvessel in their indignant denunciation of what was going on. Tho Democrats caucused atl o'clock Saturday inoniing aud resolved to stay away from tho 10 o'clock convention. The Republicans caucused at tho same hour but could do nothing but snarl. At 10 o'clock they came dropping wea rily in. There was an "up-all-night' air about the whole busiues. Tho chamber was littered with the debris of tho night before. Bread crusts, corks, crumbs, morsels of ham. pie crust, cigar stumps, etc., covered the iloor. Tho members dropped listlessly into their scats and a roll-call developed the fact that not a solitary Democrat was present. The president in a weary voico ordered a bal lot, aud for the 5ixly-ninh time the majority tried to elect. Hirsch got two votes, Simon and Storey; the rest scat tered all over the state, some refused to vole at all. but sat there in blank imbe cility. Finding it was no go, they ad journed to meet at four o'clock. At "5:10 they met again iu caucus for the last time. Hirsch made a speech and drew out. Theu Simon nominated Cor bett, who got 28 votes out of 47. Then Williams suggested that as they couldn't elect Hirsch, Corbett, or Failing that he would name threo men any one of whom Hirsch could select. He named Judgo Stolt, Richard Williams, and W. J. Mc Connell, of Yamhill. Objection was made to any and all of the three: agaiu disagreeing the caucus broke up. At 4. o'clock the roll was called and 45 nnswerod to their names just ouo short of n quorum. Those absent were Barne1?, Bourne, Hare, MiHer, Voorhees and Cam eron. Had either one of these six been present, there would have been a major ity of the entire 90, and sufficient to elect. The 45 waited and waited, aud at eight minutes to five Simon moved that tbev dissolve. The motion was carried, amid cheers of delight from Democratic mem bers and others who rightly saw the dis astrous effect of the failure. It is just possible that some of the Republican members may get it through their heads sometime between now and next harvest. Everybody is blamed, Hirsch among the rest. There is a creat deal said about "Portland men,' und "valley men, and so on. The cold fact is, and it is a dis grace to th9 Republican party, that such a thing can be. that Sol. Hirsch was given a vote that justified him in tho demand he made for an election at the hands of the party he had served so well, and that he was beaten because he was a Jew; aud it is amy io give any otuer reason man the real ono in an account of the matter. One half the Christian world to day wor ships a Jew; the other half a Jewess; and to proscribe a race that truo to their an cient faith give the grandest example of religious constancy in the history of the world, is to turn back the wheels of prog ress and set the seal of disapproval upon such narrow act. Local Option Lair. Keady's local option law, which parsed both houses, prevides: 1st, That a li cense must be obtained from the county court. 2nd, A license of 300 per annum to sell spirituous, malt and vinous liquors, or $200 for malt liquor alone, must be paid, no license to issue for less than six months. :lrd, Providing for a bond of ;l,000, one provision being against keeping open on Sunday. Pen alty 50 to 200. 4th, That any person wishing to sell liquor must obtain tho signatures to a petition therofor of an actual majority of the legal voters of tho precinct where the liquor is to be sold, according to the last preceding general election, the number to bo greater than that of any remonstrance. The rest of the bill makes provisions for tho final obtaining of the license and its enforce ment. Surprise Partjr. On Saturday evening, tho 21st, Mayor Hume was very pleasantly surprised at his residence, on tho occasion of his birthday anniversary by a jovial com-, panj' of friends. Prosent were Mr. and Mrs.Tallant, Mr. and Mrs. Wetherbee, Dr. Hicks aud Miss Davidson, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. Berrv, Mr. aud Mrs. Tuttle and Dr. Shaw.

Tho late scandal at the Stewart man sion, in which half of tho guests drank raw whisky, and whero young Hohuau made such a disgraceful exhibition of himself, has called the attention of the capital to the vices which r.talk with bra zon faco through every part of it. There is a great deal of drunkenness at Wash ington, and society winks at it in a friendlier manner than it did a few years ago. More women appear now in ilecol lete dresses at our big receptions, and the cut of their dresses is often shame fully low. without oven tho illusion of Iaco and flowers to hide the swelling bust. At a reception not long ago a lady appeared with a low-cut dress so mado that tho shoulders were perfectly bare, and the head and shoulders looked like a living marble, life-sizo bust statuette, set in a sort of bouquet-holder of white satin. The ladies of the foreign legations are the worst, but somu of our aping Ameri cans cau come very close to them, and as a rule they havo bstter goods to show both as to face, neck and figure than tho women foreigners. When such a stats of affairs prevails iu tho fnshionablo northwest, what cau you expect on tho other side of the avenue? The result is that there are more of the demi-monde in Washington to-daj' than over before. So law is put iu force to stop them and they parade Pennsylvania aveuuo in scores every bright afternoon, cither walking dresssd in saalskins and silks or driving in some of the best-looking turn outs of the capital. They enter even tho galleries of Cougress, and I have seen them oven in the private galleries do voted to the members families, where a member of congress must furnish a ticket for their admission.

The demand for salmon from the coun try still keeps very good, though tho or ders are not in any way speculative, but evidently only to fill immediate wants. Prices for really fine salmon are much lower on this side then stocks and prices iu the Columbia river warrant, and our friends in New York can now buy salmon in Liverjxxjl and transiiort it to New York to cost them less than direct con signment from Astoria. Several large parcels have changed hands this week. Another report says: "The Alemeda is slowly being discharged, and the great bulk of the salmon is being stored for higher pricey. The freights from San Francisco are advancing, and the present rate will entail an additional cost on salmon of about Gd ier case; so that there is some justification for the present firm ness in prices. Prices are firm at 19-520s for Columbia river and 17tl0s for out side rivers. LirerjHtol Cen: London Crocer.
