W ftc glattjj gistoriatt. ASTORIA, OREGON: FRIDAY. ...TAXUAKYS.ISSC St. Jacksoxs day. Sarah is married this time, with out a doubt. Chicago wants to hold an inter national exposition in 1S92 to commemorate the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America. Cokklixg writes to a Grand Army post in Hartford, Conn., that he is too busy to deliver the address on Grant, though he would like to. A General election in Canada has been decided upon. A disso lution of Parliament will be de clared as soon as Sir John McDon ald returns from England. It is announced through British sources that Secretary "Whitney has secured the assistance of the ablest naval constructors in Eng land in making the plans for the new cruisers. The mayors of the chief cities of Iowa recently held a convention at Des Moines and agreed upon a local option bill to be submitted to the legislature. A table was presented showing that in twenty large towns, under the prohibitory law, the number of saloons has in creased over GO per cent. The government has undertaken a heavy contract in its crusade against the timber thieves, the transactions of these gentry being usually carried on in sections of country where the chances of de tection are few and the probabili ties of making a successful prose cution limited. It is very neces sary, however, that a few sovere examples should be- made, since there is some reason to believe that a number of fortunes have been made in the lumber business by men who cut timber in large quantities from the the public land. The practice should be summarily suppressed at the earliest possible day, not only on account of the loss sustained by the government, but also for the lumber dealers who have bought and paid for the timber they use. Such men are at a serious disadvantage when forced to compete with those whose tim ber has cost them nothing; and it is but justice to a large class of deserving men that the govern ment should afford them protec tion from their thieving neighbors. There are signs in Germany of a formidable revolt against the domination of the irold standard. Debtors there, like debtors here, have discovered that while their debts remain fixed at their original volume, the products of their industry are shrinking in value. Farmers especially, most of whom are carrying heavy mort gages upon their farms, feel the burden to be intolerant, and loudly demand relief. A petition on the subject from a congress of German farmers has already been handed to the German chancellor- and reichstag. Its language is as stiung as any which has ever been used by the champions of silver in this country. It declares that the gold standard is grossly unjust to debtors, making money dear and merchandise of all kinds corre spondingly cheap, and that it threatens ruin to German agricult ure, which no positive duties can avert. It condemns the policy of waiting for Great Britain to move in the matter, aud pronounces the losses which the restoration of silver would inflict on the bond holders and money lenders trivial in comparison with those now suf fered by the farming interest. The chancellor is said to bo con sidering the subject with anxiety, and action on his part may soon be looked for. The Sun recommends to those financiers who insist that this country should follow the ex ample of England in the matter of gold currency, a closer study of the British journals. The London Times recently recalled attention to the fact that business in this country, in spite of its silver dol lar, shows signs of revival, while the affairs of the United Kingdom, with all its gold, are just as bad as ever. THE SALMON MARKET IX GREAT BRITAIN. The London Grocer of December 12th gives the following report of the cunil it ion of the Liverpool salmon market: The Carnarvon Castle has partly discharged her cargo of salmon, and the samples we have seen con tinue to bear out the favorable im pression made by the first arrivals, the quality of the fish, color of oil, and freedom from soft and sloppy tins being remarkable; in fact, wo ap pear to have returned to the early days of packing, when the work was done with carefulness and regularity, which so largely contributed to the rapid growth of the article in public favor. The sales for home and coun try demand have recently been light yet continuous, December being the dullest month in the year in this re spect, as the grocers very largely at this season withdraw their stores from their windows and shelves to make room for more congenial Christ mas goods; but on tho turn of the year they begin to replenish and re dress their windows and shops, etc., with tho attractive tins; hence, as the days lengthen, the demand and the price will steadily strengthen. The broad fact will then soon assert itself that with an average annual consump tive demand for the past four or five years of some 510,000 to 514,000 cases, we shall have but 320,000 to 330.000 cases to supply it with. Another report says: As predicted in our last report, the cargo of the Carnar von Castle has had little or no effect upon our market We understand that, as usual at this time of the year, there is very little demand from the country, but we know this must change as soon as the Christmas trade is over, and on this account there ha3 been no anxiety on the part of the holders to sell the few lots that are on the market, as they feel confident that unless they obtain the prices they now ask, it will well repay them to store the cases and not offer them for another month.
