"Eggs are now being shipped to

Granted for the sake of argument
that all that Saturday's Oregonian
charges are true; what does the whole
business amount to? Simply this

her about it Till the Oregonian
made the charges none of the parties
interested appear to have been in any
way damaged thereby.

A POSITIVE AND UNQUALIFIED
DENIAL.
The Portland Neics issued an extra
edition last Sunday in which John H.
Mitchell published a denial of the
charges brought against him in Sat
urday's Oregonian. He says: "Ideny
most positively, specifically and un
qualifiedly, that I ever wrote any one,
or part, or portion, of any one of the
alleged letters, or notes published in
this morning's Oregonian and
attributed tome." "The
tracks of crime in their make up are
so flagrantly apparent as to stamp the
whole business as stupid and idiotic
in theextreme: as, for instance, I am
in one letter, of date September 7th,
1870. made to say, I was examined
and admitted to the bar to-day and
am now a lawyer,' and further, 'I
don't know exactly what I will do or
where I may go to commence practice.
I may remain in Oregon City and I
may go to Portland, I cannot tell as
yet"' While the fact is, as the rec
ords show, and as thousands of men
in Pennsylvania and Oregon know, I
was admitted to the bar first in tho
state of Pennsylvania, in tho year
1850, and I was admitted to the b3r
in the state of Oregon in September,
1SG0, after an examination by a com
mittee of the bar, of which Hon. E.
D. Shattuck, of this city, was the
chairman; and had been, on Septem
ber 7th, 1870, the date of this alleged
letter, engaged in active practice of
law in Portland, Oregon City, and
other places, for over ten years. If,
on the other hand, it should be
claimed that the letter is misdated,
and that should have been Septem
ber?, 1800, the date when I was
admitted to the bar here, then, as
many know, the party to whom it is
alleged it was addressed, could not
have been over six years of age."
He goes on at length to recite mat
ters which some have known and oth
ers surmised concerning, the record
of his principal assailant.
Yesterday's Oregonian comes out
with u double leaded article on sev
eral pages of an eight paged edition
and rings the changes on all it said
the day before. Its chief aim in yes
terday's issue appears to be to try
and goad and taunt Mitchell into
some overt act of violence. . In his
action since Saturday the editor of
the Oregonian has stepped outside
tho line of personal protection and
invited reprisal of a nature that
would not require a repetition.
When an unscrupulous man in a
newspaper office uses his power to
blast the reputation of a fellow being
no paltry attempt at a "libel suit" is
sufficient condonement for the irre
trievable wrong. But the miserable
consciousness ot his own identity
through time and eternity is probab
ly the fittest cs it is the surest pun
ishment that can be meted out to a
man who to gratify personal malice
would prostitute his profession us
the editor ot the Oregonian ha3 done.

COUNTY BOUNDARIES.
The Astoriax says --the Nehalem
settlers are moving in tho matter of a
petition to the legislature praying that
the present boundary lines between
Clatsop and Columbia counties be
moved east three, miles." The only
"settler" who Is moving to any extent
in tho matter is a party by the name of
Cameron, and he assigns as a reason
that the taxes are too high in Columbia
county, although as he is not a tax payer,
this cannot affect him. As for any oth
er -'good reasons" that exist for such a
change, we are ignorant of them, and
wc hardly think the legislature will re
verse its own action so speedily. We
know that the principal tax payers of
that section aro opposed to such a
change, and they have good reason for
being so. Our people prefer Tortland
to Astoria as a trading point, and it is
often a great convenience to them to
be able to visit the county seat on their
way to the metropolis. Moreover, there
is no way for the settlers in that section
to get to Astoria except by boat. There
is not even a trail from the Westport
settlement to Astoria, and the Nehalem
people have to go quite a distance down
the Nehalem and then only have a verv
poor trail over the mountains to Asto
ria, while they have good roads to St.
Helens. In view of these facts, friend
Halloran, don't you think it would be
as well to leave the line where the legis
lature has established it? St. Helens
Mist, i:t.
Prior to the legislature of '85, the
east boundary line of Clatsop county
crossed West's slough just at Wood's
landing, in sec. 8, T. 7, two miles due
east of Westport, though for nil prac
tical purposes the county line was
supposably at Westport as all east of
that was assessed in Columbia coun
ty. What is now asked is to put it
one mile farther east than it was be
fore moved by the last legislature.
This is for the convenience of set
tlors who live on a tract beginning
about three miles south of Wood's
landing- and extending down the
Nehalem through T. G. There is a
road from Wood's landing, which 13
the natural entrepot for that country.
As it is thirty miles to Astoria and
eighty to Portland, as Astoria is a
good market and Astoria merohants
offer equal inducements with Port
land merchants, it is clear that the
interests of the twenty or thirty
settlers in that region and the con
venience of all in that vicinity re
quires that tho county boundary
lines be changed.
The Astorian doesn't want the
county boundary line3 extended for
any other reason than tho natural de
sire to afford every one all the pos
sible facilities to settle and occupy
the country. If this can be best
dono by placing it in Columbia
county let it be dono. If, as wo
believe, it will be better in every way
for people there to be set into this
county, that should be done.
Carue Ashore.
Coroner Ross received a telegram
last Sunday evening, that a body had
come ashore ou Clatsop beach. He
went down that evening and held an
inquest yesterday. The body came
ashore near the Seaside house. It
was that of a man 38 or 40 years of
age; five feet nine inches in height,
dark complexion; had on red flannel
underwear, gray flannel overshirt and
overalls. Tho verdict was that he
was drowned in the ocean. It is be
lieved that ho was off the plunger
Emma, two others, manifestly from
that unfortunate craft, coming ashore
last week. The pockets of the do
ceased were turned inside out and
completely rifled, the ghoulish cu
pidity of those first discovering the
body destroying any probability of
tho nnfortunate man's identification.
The burial will bo to-day.

This is tho title of a twenty-nine

Washington are still held by railroad

lies the reason for sparse settlement,
high taxes and the non development
of the country. People who are still
whining about the forfeiture of the
Astoria land grant would do well to
get the pamphlet. We do not agree
with all of its arguments nor conclu
