W ' J&sferfan. ASTORIA, OREGON: SUNDAY MAKCH 15. 1333 Tun telegrams say that Blaine called to see Cleveland last Friday. It is ii:esiion8blc which o the tvro should congratulate the other. Pkesidktt Cr-rvntAKD has issued his 5rsi proclamation, warning Indian torritory 'boomers' not to enter Ok lahema lands at the peril of ejection bv the raililarv. Ix UassaclinsettE, Elaine and Ver mont, the mercury ranged from 10 to 35 below sero on the 13th. Here a brilliant snn was shining, and the thermometer marked G2 degrees.; The strike of the railroad employes is extending all over the Mississippi valley. The strikers have not as yej; committed any overt act," but seem determined to resist lb1 proposed re duction of vages. Tt is reported thai the French gov ernment k convincedof ihenecesfity of marching npon Pekio. The gov ernmcBt will shortly ask for :i grant of $10,(M0,C0G to provide for the ills tnich of 2V00 men to China. The valuo of the products of our forwls in -RS0 exceeded S700,000,000. The value ot the iron ami .steel pro duced (hat yer was less than $300, 000,000; of cual, bolli anthracite and liiiumition. l;s than 100,000,000. Manitoba has been grossly libeled, and the "Winnipeg papers are rallying f o her defense. Some tropical news paper Raid the mercury reached 50 de gree 1k?.w seio at Winnipeg tho other dny. and the people of that city want it distinctly understood that the statement is a contemptible was onlv -tfi lelow. lie Dhaiiis drawn on the Canadian Pa cific syndicate at the east have been returuetl dishonored. It is reported that the imperial government will come to the help of the Canadian Pa cific and assist them in completing the railway, so that troops and muni tions or war may be transported through British territory to the Pa cific and thence to India. Dieiwronre? from Suakem state that mutiny has broken out in Osman Digma's camp. Deserters bring ter rible ttdes of suffering among the Arab3, and say Osman Digma is only able to maintain authority by a system of terrorism, which includes beheading a few muti neers every morning at sunrise. A report is current among natives to the effect that El Mahdi has evac uated Metemueh. The reason nllcged for the slop is El ?Iahdi fears an inva sion is about to be made into the Soudan from Abyssinia. It is reported from "Washington that the president and his cabinet take a lively interest ia the Illinois senatorial contest, and will leave no offorl untried to secure tho election of Colonel Morrison, the Democratic caucus nominee. Tho appointment of General J. C. Black, one of Mor rison's competitors, to the pension office, is said to have strengthened the latter's position at Springfield. It is also rumored that Speaker Haines is tobe placated and captured by appointing his son, J. C. Haines, formerly of Chicago, to be governor of "Washington territory. H. IL Brvaxt, of Boston, predicts that unless the chief commercial na-' lions of tho world resume the coinage ot silver within the next, twenty, and probably within the nest ten, years, general repudiation or revolution arc not simply probable but inevitable. He argues that the load of public and corporate debt heaped upon mankind since the discovery of the mines of California and Australia, renders the attempt to rob the common people by tho advance of the purchasing, power ol money an utter impossibility. This prediction, says the JVv, is strictly in accord with tho logic of events, and i worth remembering. Ok April Aih and 7iJi there will meat at New Orleans, one hundred boards of trade from various western cities to confer in regard to improve ment of western waterways. Not only senators and representatives will be invited, bnt also the president and cabinet, and governors ot all the .states, the hundred boards of trade mentioned, but hundreds of .the com mercial cities and towns of the valley states will send mammoth delegations. Atfer the adjournment of the com mission there will be a steamboat ex cursion from New Orleans to the mouth ot the river and jetties, iu or der that congress may see for them selves tho nature and magnitude and wants of these national highways. A delegation regarding the Columbia river obstructions is in order. Wx SsUtt John Bbight to his censtituents: "Cast your eyo back for a moment upon the reign of tho queen. Do you imagine the reign of the queen is re markably a reign of peace, and that heaven should be thanked for the long peace that we have enjoyed? A great many other people at your cost have not enjoyed it Three wars with China, the most peaceful empire in the werld: a war with Burmah; I know not how many wars in South Africa even before the Zulu war; a war in the Crimea of the largest pro portions; two Afghan "Wars, in one of which not less than 60,000 camels died of hunger, thirst and over-labor; another war in Egypt; and I assert that it was not possible for anybody to form, I will not say a just de-, fense, but a reasonable excuse, for the wars that have been waged by this country during the reign of the queen." A "Washington special to the Chionicle conveys tho information that society circles at the national capital are terribly shocked at Presi dent Cleveland's plebeian habit of breakfasting at 8 o'clock and working in his shirt sleeves. He is credited with- feeling a contempt for society as it is constituted in "Washington. His attitude in this respect is all tha more noticeable when contrasted with the habits of his predecessor. Mr. Ar thur's administration was a continued aeiieht to societv neonle. With his courtly manners, his asthetic tables and bevy of charming ladies in the fragrant parlors, the "White house grew to be a sort of "Windsor castle, to bo admitted to which all society people felt honored. Thev are now disposed to look upon Cleveland as a crusty old bachelor, with severe ideas of business and a real contempt for society. Therefore societv feels a lit tle rebellious, and some of its leaders have already resolvedjto keep away from tho "White house altogether. People who are well acquainted with the president say that this resolve, if faithfully kept, will afford him almost as much satisfaction as the withdrawal of the politicians. Late war notes from Europe are less threatening in their character. In the English house of commons on thel3lh, Gladstone announced that an agreement had been arrived at between Russia and England by the terms of which neither Russian nor the Afghan forces would advance any further on either side of the frontier. Com menting on the statement the Loudon Standard says: "The agreement be tween England and Russia leaves the essence of tho difficulty untouched. Matters must have been bad when such an agreement was paraded as a diplomatic gain. Many consider this pause in the situation a prelude to surrender." On tho 13th, the czar of Russia, during- an informal talk with several diplomats at an imperial levy, said: "I cannot conceive that any but the wildest dreamer could think that I would deolare war on England. Our ends can bo attained and will be attained, but will be by the gradual powers of civilization, and not by force." Baron Mohrenheim, Russian ambassador, has been interviewed in regard to the present Anglo-Russian situation. Ho expressed the opinion 4.hat Emperor "William would exert his influence to avert war and also en deavor to "induce England to make some concession. He scouted tho idea that Russia would withdraw her troops from positions at present oc cupied. Such action would reflect dishonor upon the Russian armies. In case England did not declare war, it was certain, in his opinion, that Russsia would not do so. He thought it extremely unlikely that England would declare war, as she has her hands full already. DeGiers, Russian prime minister, is animated by a de sire for peace. The influence of the war party in Russia has diminished since the death of General Skobeleff. NEW TO-DAY. .Boat Found. .
