Astoria, October 24th, 1885. DIFFERENT FR03I ASTORIA. A Little Wo Far. Far Away "Where rial Don't Know What to Do with the Mnncv. Ofil- The government makes the foreign consuls send in reports from their posts as to the manners and customs of the people with whom they tem porarily sojourn. These reports are printed and sent to the newspapers. It the men in the newspaper offices had the time they could imbibe con siderable information this way, for the little blue books come very often. Sometimes it is about ilax raising in Ireland, then it is the gold dust trade of the Congo country, or the fish market of St Petersburg, or the wine trade of Hungary, or the watch manu factures of Geneva, or the ale brew eries of Trent, or the dye woods of Brazil. A siugular account is that of the island of Malta, written by Consul Worthington. Malta and its govern ment differs slightly from Astoria aud its government It seems there are things in Malta besides Maltese cats and Maltese crossas, though you can always make a Maltese cross by pull ing her tail. (All rights reserved, all same Oregonian.) In the first place there are no taxes in Malta. How does that strike you? It is evident they don't have any elections for mayor and councilmen in Malta, and that they can discharge unnecessary policemen there without being afraid of losing any "influence' before election. It looks a little tough though to read farther on that there is a surplus in the Maltese treas ury and that the city council don't know what to do with it Great Caesar! are there no streets in Malta to be "im proved?' Are there no use ful men that can be put on as "spe cials" during fishing season and paid right along for mouths after the fish ing season is over? These Maltese evidently don't understand how to make opportunities and then improve the aforesaid oportunities. That part of the yarn looks very thin. Further on we find that Malta has no fire department Well: the Mal tese miss lots of fun, that's all. Life can't beVery exciting in Malta; that is public life: probably when it comes right down to mumbling the ten commaudment there isn't so much difference after all. Poe-nt Delirvo in Taffy. New Yor.K, Oct 20.- GeneralLogan was seen by n'l'ribune representative while enroute to St Johnsbury. "I will make three speeches during the campaign in New York," said he. "They will be Republican, too. This cry of bloody shirt does not appall me iuthc least 1 have heard that before. It was talked of in a good many forms in my day. The south only wants to be let alone. One of the earliest forms in which it is heard are that some of the Republicans think this is the time to drop Republican talk, and cover the administration with praise. All I can say about the administration will be in the direction of showing its utter hypocrisy. Why. if everything charged or asserted against Blaine in the matter of letters was absolutely true, his transactions would not begin to be as infamous as this tele phone matter in the department of justice. This affair is a hundred times more monstrous. I don't in tend to be silent on that point, or silent on the Roach matter, or silent on foreign mails, or any other point in which the administration has made such terrible mistakes aud fatal movements. In other words. I will make a Republican speech." (ivius White Men The Preference. A First street barber shop ordered two cords of wood Saturday momiug aud tho same were delivered at the door before 1 r. m. Iu the next hour forty Chinameu called at the shop offering to saw the wood for G0 ceuts a cord Their bids were all rejected, and the bidders turned away. Dur iug the afternoon a white man hap pened to pass the shop, and he was given tho job at the rate of $1.50 per cord. Besides the proprietors gen erously donated to him a saw and saw buck. In different portions of the city white men are seen sawing wood where formerly Chinamen held the fort Portland Xeics. A Kelialle Article.

Count Von Moltke celebrated his 83th birthday on the 27th inst. Several anti-vaccination individu als have formed a league in New York city. Heury Bergh is the pres ident Reports that- tho. Servians had crossed the Bulgarian frontier are officially denied by tho Servian gov ernment A fight took place on Sunday on the frontier of Montenegro between Albanian and Montenegrin troops. Three Albanians and six Montene grins were killoJ. The 'Independence BeVjt says: Austria has prohibited the transit through her territory of a number of Krupp guns , recently purchased by the Bulgarian government Efforts are being made to remove Governor Warren, of Wyoming terri tory for his activity in endeavoring to secure the punishment of rioter3 who participated in the recent massacre of Chinese at Bock Springs. It is understood that Governor Warren's action has Cleveland's approval. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding the department of the Missouri, rec ommends the turning over of Indian territory to the military as more sat isfactory to the Indians, who have been crowded into unhealthy camps; that it will save 100,000 a year to the government, and clear out the out laws. The trial of Perdinand Wurd, the man who ruined Gen. Grant, began in New York on the 26th. Fish, the banker, who was sometime ago sen tenced to ten years hard labor at Au burn state prison for complicity in tho fraud, is first witness. It is ex pected that ho will tell all he knows, which is a good deal, and that some of those who got the bulk of Grant's money will be made disgorge or take tho consequences. The Brooklyn Eagle of the 26th printed an interview with Conkling, in which he mercilessly scored tho Republican party, and denounced the Republican state ticket. The publi cation produced an immense sensa tion. The erald now says the in terview never occurred; that it is bo gus, from beginning to end. That it was published to hurt Davenport and help Hill. Tho Herald adds: Our Washington dispatches contain Conkling's authority to pronounce this alleged interview a preposterous, wicked fabrication. "A man who would prepare and utter a forgery,'' says Conkling, "is worso than one who turns rattlesnakes and mad dogs into the streets to poison innocent people with their venom." Gen. DeConrcoy, commander of the Prench forces in Annam has tele graphed to Paris from Ha-Noi to the war office that he has defeated tho Black Flags in an engagement. Great enthusiasm exists over the official announcement of tho Prench successes in Annam. A later dis patch, received from DeCourcey. states that the French troops gained the victory, notwithstanding the Black Plags were immensely supe rior iu numbers, aud that he inflicted great slaughter on the Black Plags. The fighting was very severe, aud lasted three days. The enemy fought stubbornly, but were completely routed. Gen. DeQourcey says the enemy numbered 0,000 men. aud con sisted of Black Flag3, Annamites and deserters from tho Chinese army. Three of the chiefs were killed dur ing the engagement and mauy pris oners were taken by the French forces. Gen. Janmont conducted the operations agaiust the enemy, which resulted in the capture of the strong ly fortified town of Thanmai, one of the last aud most formidable held by the Black Plags. Geu.

If Portland can control the trade of the northwest, by means of the O. K. & X. Co., it will be suitable to her wishes that the Columbia be completely locked to the commerce of the inland empire Sccept by means of the boats of the onopoly which now govern transpor tation. If the transcontinental line should be completed to Tacoina, perhaps Portland would make an effort to im prove the navigation of the Columbia river; because, by this means of cheap transportation, she could outbid her sound competitors for the trade ot East ern Oregon and Washington. Until that time we can expect no help from the chief city of Oregon for the pro jected improvement to navigation in tins great river, anu suouiu noc ue dis appointed if she displays a violent an tagonism. As we have often said in these columns, with an open river, the products of this section could reach As toria with nearly equal facility that they could be landed at Portland, and the former city would offer the greater inducements in saving the expense of lighterage. There has been so much evidence in regard to the status of Tortland to the northwest that there can be no doubt of the correctness of our position. If there is anything lacking to convince the most skeptical mind that the interests of Portland are not in harmony with those east of the Cascades, the late ac tion of the committee appointed by the board of trade of Portland, to take into consideration holding a waterway con vention, furnishes indisputable nroof of the fact. Some time since the A ancou ver board of trade passed resolutions calling a convention of the people of the northwest interested in opening the Columbia river to free navigation to meet at some point and take united ac tion in memoralizing congress for lib eral appropriations to that end. The board of trade of this city met and a committee of twenty was appointed to represent our section at the proposed conveniion. All looked to Portland to take a leading part in this important movement, and her board of trade gave evidence that she also was in earnest about the matter. It appointed a com mittee consisting of lion. G. II. Wil liams, lion. M. C. George, Hon. II. W. Corbett, Hon. Sol. nirsch, and Mr. C. II. Dodd, gentlemen representing the best legislative and business ability of this section. This committee held a meeting lately nud decided that a convention was unnecessary, and asked the boards of trade of Vancouver, The Dalles. Walla Walla and other towns to for ward memorials to congress through the Portland board of trade. This con vention was called because congress man Ilolman, in his recent visit to this state, said that congress would make the necessary appropriations if the matter was presented in the proper way, and taking the waterway convention recently held at St. Paul in which the Mississippi valley was fully represented as a model, it was thought advisable to follow that example. There is no use in mincing matters any longer. Portland is not in favor of an open river, and whatever action the inland empire takes in the premises, must be taken with the expectation of antagonism from that city. The syren like music that the metropolis plays every time she thinks the lease of the 0. 11. & X. Co.'s line by the Northern Pacific will not be consummated, must not be heeded. It will lead to a servile dependence upon Portland, which will retard our development and cripple our fjrowth. We must act independently of icr help, nnd rely solely upon our own efforts. The proposed convention can be held without the Portland board of trade being represented, and if we can have a representative in congress who will enlighten that body regarding the true status of the matter, we may get liberal aid from the government for the important enterprise of opening one of the largest rivers of the continent to free navigation. But to accomplish our purpose, we must have only this one thing in view an open river. We must pin our political creed to this single idea, and must have no party friends who arc not unequivocally pledged to the support of this measure. And in this connection we will remind the members from Eastern Oregon, that the names of this committee, which has reported adversely to a united effort in favo.r of opening the river, constitute some probable candidates for United States senator during the coming special session of the legislature. They are either apathetic or antagonistic to this great enterprise, and their election to the senate would jeopardize the devel opment of this section of the northwest; and no redress could be expected from the grievances which are now retarding the growth of the inland empire. We cannot blame the concentrated capital of Portland for making an effort to retain the status of that city as the trading center of the country tributary to it; neither can any blame be attached to other sections of .the state if they think that their interests will be better subserved bv looking to other shipping points, it i'ortianu can maintain the railroad supremacy in Oregon, she will always grow and prosper, and the tribu tary sections will simply maintain a dependent existence. If the locks at the Cascades are completed and the river above The Dalles freed of objj struction, then the vast grain and wool product of the country east of the Cas cades will seek the cheaper means of transportation, and other cities than the one near the mouth of the Willamette will be marts ot trade. If the people of the northwest desire tho perpetuation of special contract rates in favor of the present railroad terminus and also to fiaythe exorbitant tariff now charged of the transportation of products to Portland, let them bow to the political and corporation rings now centered there; if they earnestly wish liberation from these burdens, let them divorce themselves from political cliques aud corporation inlluence. and act inde pendently and bend all energies to the accomplishment of the one object of an open river. By this means, the develop ment of this section will bo assured, and we shall not have to quietly submit to whatever railroads and their terminal cities may determine. Notice.
