23 She SaiUi stoviiw. ASTORIA. OREGON: THURSDAY -XOVEMBEU 12. IStw Tin; mugwumps tloa't see any thing the coining Thanksgiving to be thankfnl for. At a recent meeting of Knights of Labor, at Toronto, in speaking of monopolies, one of the speakers used the following illustration. If a man owns a cow and takes care of her, he is entitled to the milk of the cow, but no man owns one cow and milks three, unless he takes the milk of some other man's two cows. "When a corporation waters its stock to three times the amount of the original cost, then the dividends shared by the incor porators are the milk of three cows, two ol which do not belong to them. Tiieki: are not far short of 1G0. 000 vessels engaged in Europe and North America in fishing. Between G00,000 and 700,000 men are employed in this industry, and the total annual product of fish is 1,500,000 tons. A ton of fish is equal in weight to about twenty eight sheep; and hence, if this es timate is approximate! y correct, a year's fish supph' for ten Euro pean countries, included in this estimate, and the United States and Canada, might be represented by '11.000,000 sheep. 1" Iceland the women have votes as well as voices in church affairs. The custom has existed there for ages, and is kept up by the Icelanders who have emi grated. There are in Dakota, Montana and Manitoba nearly a dozen Icelandic congregations. These recently met in convention at Mountain, Dakota, and adopted a synodic.il constitution. There was considerable discussion, but finally it .was carried by a two thirds vote that the women con tinue to enjov their ancient privi lege. lr the measures proposed at the coming English election prove successful it is difficult to see how the British monarchy can stand secure. With a house of lords shorn of its ancient functions, with the present state religion disestab lished, with an almost universal franchise, with home rule granted to Ireland, with the present land system overturned in Scotland, it would appear to a simple com moner that the flag that for a thousand vears has battled J in the breeze may shortly float above :i discordant and di vided country. Thin "alarming possibility of war1' that has been daily tele graphed from Europe for a year or so is getting a little stale. Not a day passes but we are told in flam ing head lines that the dreadful fiat has gone forth and the European kings and kinglings are going to fight sure. As Shakesneare hath it, "Leave off your damnable faces and begin.' On this nM- the At- j lantic folks fight ur.li fas-1""- pre- i paratory fus. This country would like to sees iroJ European row if for tin other ie:e'n than to vindicate th. i.j.a: i;.n of En glish ncaspspfr M.-i";i.i:jiIi-iits. It is und-rtxd j-hat ih ' recent declaration of forfeiture of alleged O. & C. grant lands in Washington territory xeleases from monopoly grasp and restores to the public domain some fine land in Cowlitz, Washington and Pacific counties. These lands lie along the Columbia river, begining about five miles from the bank of the river. They were claimed on the same ground that the Astoria land grant was claimed, and when that was de clared forfeited, the forfeiture involved similar disposition of that part of the shadowy title that rested on the north side of our noble river. It was a current saying in San Francisco, in connection with the New York steamboats sent out there, round Cape Horn in 1S49, that the first two years after her arrival, one boat, the Senator, earned her weight in gold. She made daily trips, and was crowded with passengers at $25 a head. Her receipts at times amounted to $20,000 on a single run up to Sac ramento. "When the Senator was withdrawn from the Sacramento river trade she was strengthened and placed on the coast route be tween San Francisco and San Diego. She ran safely and suc cessfully until 18S0, when she was dismantled. Her engine was tak en out and the old Senator was rigged as a bark. She sailed for Australia, and arrived safely. NEW TO-DAY.

The Astoria chamber of com merce yesterday forwarded the follow ing memorial for adoption by the legislative assembly to state senator P. O. Eeed. "Whebeas the congress of the Unit ed States has undertaken to improve the bar at the month of the Cnlumbia river; and "Whereas, The appropriations made to carry on the work have been expended, causing a cessation of operations until further appropria tions are made; and Whereas, Should the work stop, even for a short time, owing to the nature of, the current and action of the prevailing winds and heavy seas in the winter season, there is danger that favorable rosnlts already secured may be lost; and Whereas, The work as far a3 ad vanced, under the supervision of the U.S. board of engineers, f ally demon strates the feasibility of carrying it to a successful completion; and "Whereas, The growing commercial importance of the Columbia river trade is proven by Custom house statistics which show that in 1834, 403 vessels crossed the bar for foreign and domestic ports with cargoes valued at $15,000,000, as against G3 vessels with cargoes valued at 34,181,352 in the year 1SS0; and Whereas, Owing to the present unimproved condition of the Colum bia river bar, the tax per ton is nearly $1.25 by reason of the imperfection of the channel; therefore, bo it Jtcioltetl, By the senate, the house cencurring: That our senators and representa tives in congress are requested to use all honorable means to secure at an early day sufficient appropriations from the general government for the speedy completion of the well begun work.
