There is probably no city of its size
in the United States where there is
less drunkeness or disorder than in
the city of Astoria. This is what
travelers and visitors say and the facts
justify the assertion.
There will be a meeting of the La

The Mercury says the fish ladder
at the falls at Oregon City, which
cost the state $10,000, don't seem to
amount to much. The salmon seem
to regard it as an unnecessary outlay
of public funds, and there are people
who are not "suckers" who view it in
the same lignt At any rate, says the
Mercury, tributaries of tthe Willam
ette above the falls have not been re
tarded from flowing on to the sea by
a gorge of salt-water fish since the
ladder was constructed. It is more
than probable that another appropria
tion will be asked of the next legis
lature to complete the work and bribe
the perverse salmon to emigrate south
to be devoured by the denizens of
Long Tom andLuckamute.

A Necessary Amendment.
The Oregon legislature has passed
a law to the effect that bicyclists must
stop riding whenever they approach
within one hundred yards of a team,
and, after dismounting remain stand
ing until it has passed. This law
may be a good one, but it does not
go far enough. It should be amend
ed so as to compel the bicyclist to
take off his hat and remain uncovered
while the driver of the team is passing
him. JSorristoum Herald.

It involves the ownership of a
strip commonly known as Hamilton
street, 50 feet wide, extending from
Astor street northward to the city
front, east of and adjacent to the
Pythian building and at right angles
with Squemoqua street.
It was originally the property of
John McClure who platted the tract
in 1857 and laid out a street there.
Iu 1853 or '59 he transferred his in
terests to Cyrus Olney who laid out
another addition or extension and set
down the strip in question as subdi
vided into lots on his map, pushing
the street farther east to what is now
known as Olney street
As the deeds to the property run
back prior to the declaration of the
city s right to tido lands and water
front, aud as the original title and
transfer were acquired and made be
fore the then territory of Oregon had
become a state, and as the whole mat
ter has been in dispute for nearly
ten years, the decision of the ques
tion is no easy matter.

A KNIGHT OF LABOR.
How to Tell a Real One From a Pusil
lanimous Fraud.
Thick and fast come the questions,
"Why do and why don't the K. of L.
do that?" ''Why do they give their
trade to merchants who are boycott
ing them?" "Why do they vote for
men for legislative offices who are
their enemies?' These are very per
tiuout questions and the public have
a right to know tho truth. It is
short and simple.
Tho general public, outside tho
organization, have but one certain,
means of knowing who is a Knight of
Labor.
The statement of a man that he is
a Knight or that some one else is a
Knight, is not reliable, and four times
out of five it is false. A Knight of
Labor is not in the habit of proclaim
ing it, nor does he give the name of
another Knight, for by so doing, ex
cept in rare instances, he violates his
obligation and proclaims himself a
liar and a fraud. So when the public
read in a lottery bulletin, or any
other demoralizing monopoly paper,
what a "prominent Knight" said of a
confidential nature, they should re
member that it is the word of a self
confessed perjurer repeated, by an
enemy of the cause, and it should be
taken with due allowance.
There are, however, certain signs
by which a Knight of Labor can
always be known, which are as fol fel fol
eows: He is honestj sober and industri
ous. He is very unpopular with the
party bosses and tricksters, because
they can't use him to advance their
Bchemes.
He is never seen standing about
saloons awaiting a drink and telling
about his influence in the organiza
tion. He subscribes for and reads a labor
paper. Knighthood is a work of ed
ucation and it is impossible for a man
who does not study the principles to
bo a good knight
He is a friend of co-operation, and
inquires for and purchases no other
goods when he can get tho products
of co-operation.
He will not take or read an obscuro
or demoralizing paper, or spend a
dollar with a merchant who adver
tises his goods in it or who refuses
to advertise in a labor paper. A man
who will patronize the enemies of la
bor or permit his family to do so, aud
neglects to patronize the friends of
labor, is a scab and a monopolist at
heart and if in the Knights of Labor
is either ignorant of his duty, or is
there for the furtherance of selfish
motives.
There are other signs by which a
Knight may be known, but these are
infallible, and the man who does not
employ them is no tnio Knight, al
though he may be connected with
some assembly. By their works ye
shall know them, and not by their
words. Sunday Mercury.

TAID FOR THE CIIRON03IETER.
Here is a story about old John Ja
cob Astor that shows how wretched
parsimony and detestable meanness
are sometimes rewarded: "One of
As tor's best captains had made six
voyages to China without a chronom
eter, but just beforo sailing on his
seventh voyage he suggested to Mr.
Asfbr that it would bo safer to have
one. 'Get one,' said the millionaire.
The captain did so and entered its
cost on the account current "When
Astor's eye fell upon the item he drew
his pen through it The captnin ex
postulated. 'Damn it, man,' said As
tor, 'I told you to get one, but I did
not say I would pay for it' The old
seaman left Mr. Astor's employment
at once snd went down town, and be
fore night was in command of as fine
a ship as ever floated. In three days
heset sail. At the same time Astor's
ship under a new commander also set
sail. The voyage to Hong Kong was
very close, but the captain who, as he
used to say, had 'discharged John
Jacob Astor,' by keeping his men at
the braces, took advantage of every
breath of wind and won by three
days. The ship was loaded" in the
shortest possible time, and before
Astor's vessel, which had arrived in
the meantime, was half loaded, our
captain weighed anchor, and with a
full cargo of tea sailed for New York.
He arrived in good time and hoisted
out the cargo, which was sold at auc
tion on the spot The market was
thereby overstocked, and when As
tor's ship arrived tho price had fallen.
Some time afterward, he met Mr. As
tor. 'How much did that chronome
ter cost you?' the latter asked. 'Six
hundred dollars.' 'Well,' said Astor,
'that was cheap, it cost me $60,000.' "
