m SIw gaits stwlau. ASTORIA, OREGON: TUESDAY. JULY 28. 1SC5 The ability to exercise influence without responsibility mates the pos sessor a dangerous man in any com munity. Over $2,000,000 are reported to have been paid to Jno. Roach on his cruiser contracts, leaving $400,000 due when he made his assignment. The Iowa supreme court has de cided that a hotel keeper who re ceives guests, knowing that there is a contagious disease in the house, is li able for damages to any guest who may contract the disease. The Toronto Globe has printed twenty-five and one-fourth columns of a speech by a member of parlia ment on the Canada Pacific railroad and announces its conclusion in a fifth and final installment. And so the Prince of Wales has "stopped his paper;" that is has ceased taking the Pall Mall Gazette. That is probably not the worst thing Wales ever did. By the way how do you pronounce "Pali Mall?' come now. Mr. Pahssa has discovered anoth er asteroid and will name it after any one who will send him $250. Cheap enough! 'Tis a brilliant idea, having a star bear one's name. Still between the two we would rather have a horse te roid. So far the Oregonian and the San Francisco Morning Bulletin are the only two daily morning papers re ceived at this office that had the news of Grant's death in the regular edi tion of the 23rd insL The Bulletin had the esact moment 8:08. W. H. H. Bcsseii, a member of the New York bar, affirms that the expen siveness of justice in that city amounts almost to a denial. In a simple action of his own, where there was only a complaint, an answer and a trial, involving the sum of $200, the costs were over S120. After four months of au exhaustive inquiry and examination into the Chinese quarter of San Francisco, the board of supervisors report that the vico, filth, degradation and crime that they discovered among the San Francisco Chinese are appalling in their magnitude and extent. To the credit of the great state of New York bo it said that at an ex penditure of $1,433,000 that common wealth has rescued Niagara Falls from the grasp of show-sharks, and made it the property of the world. The great cataract is now possible of sight without the seer being bled at every turn. The Empire stato de serves congratulation on such a splendid exhibition of pnblic spirit. The newspaper men of western Washington have organized a press association and are going to disenss some very interesting subjects. The list is published in the Port Town send Argus. "How to get the best of a bilk" is a good one. If the gentle man who is going to discuss that will send us his essay and it contains any thing that will be of practical avail, we'll set it in double leaded brevier and run it in this column. Among the more fastidious people there is an impression that the flavor of tea is wholly ruined by a journey on salt water. All the crowned heads and wealthy nobility of Europe use tea, therefore, which costs them three times the price paid in America for a brand bearing the samo name, but which is brought by Russian traders in caravans overland from China. The trade is very profitable, and it is largely to protect it that Russia is so jealous of her Asiatic posessions. TnE list of goods canned has been enlarged by a company in St Louis, which has begun canning eggs. A factory has been erected, and is now in operation, where they will can 1, 030,000 dozen annually. The eggs are put through some sort of a process by which the yelks and white are sepa rated from the shells, and the substance is then dried and canned. One teaspoonful is said to bo equal to one egg, and it is warranted to keep fresh for three years. Ax idea of the magnitude of the cattle trade of the United States may be easily estimated by remembering that in 1884 we exported $40,000,000 of beef and beef products, and that this was not more than G per cent of the total value of these products. In other words, the total value of beef and beef products was nearly $700, 000,000, and 91 per cent of this was consumed at home. Yet large as are these figures, it represents a yearly consumption estimating the pop ulation at 55,000,000 of a little more than $10 per capita per year. Riyaii cities may be skeptical as to the accuracy of the count, but Chicago reports an increase of her population from 503,304 in 1880 to 600,000 and Buffalo boasts an increase from 155,137 to 202,909 in the same time. In this country, as in Europe, the tendency of population toward the cities is marked, and our city population increased from 2,S97,5SG in 1S50 to 1L318,57 in 1SS0, or nearly 409 per cent General Walker predicted, after completing his work on the latest census, that the census of 1890 will show a population of G4,4G7,000J but he predicted only 49, 000,000 for 1SS0, and it is probable that he has underestimated for 1890, as both in city and country the increase is very rapid, a gain of 000, 000 in five years being announced by Iowa alone. TnERE are but three ways by which a man can have anything by pro ducing it, by receiving it as a gift or stealing it. There is no short cut to rolief. Henry George tells us that if we had community in land all things would be well, but Russia has such a communism, and yet has the poorest peasantry in Europe. Another re former blames the use of machinery. Some oflbr protection; some free trade, but England has free trade, and the peasantry in those countries are in misery. We must find some way by which employment will bo more general and remunerative, and we must recognize the principle that the laborer is worthy of a fair share of the profits of the work. As n whole, it may be asserted that the working man has received only a bare means of living. You cannot havo a great wealthy class without having a largo poor class. Wo must learn in some way to distribute the wealth which they have learned only to accumu late and concentrate. Politically our country is democratic, but indus trially it is aristocratic. The poor miners in Pennsylvania complain that ten men can assemble at Long Branch over their wiuo and cigars, and decide how much coal shall be mined and how many men shall re ceive an opportunity to earn a liveli hood. There must bo something wrong in the system when 500,000 men seek in vain for work. NEW TO-DAY. JUST RECEIVED LUXURIOUS Easy Lounging Chairs, For Sale Cheap at IE2.. O. IOIoIcSLoio.-js Auction Rooms.
