Now if tbo Iv. of L. order a general boycott of Chinese manufactured goods what effect will it have on tbe sale of salmon in this country? Business is business. Is it business to employ Chinese labor exclusively iu the knit ting of nets? D. J. Ingalls, of Chadwell gave a 13-year-old boy, named "Willie Carson, a home some time ago, the boy seeming to need ono pretty badly. Last Sun day in Mr. Ingalls and wife's absence from homo the boy broke open a drawer stole $24.50, and getting pos session of a boat started for town. He was caught yesterday and S23.G0 of tbo stolen money found on him. He is an ungrateful cub, but being so young it seems bard to punish him; may bo it would be as well to give lrim another sbow.

There is a good deal being Baid about possible "trouble at Astoria." Tbe most of it has no foundation; whatever small part of it has any rea son for being talked of need not ex ist if we all go about it the right way. Everyone who lives in Astoria, the same as everyone who lives anywhere, wants to prosper, to do well, to got ahead. Whilo the air ia full of threatening rumors, whilo rumors are enlarged as they pass from mouth to moutn, while men paint their fears and seem half ready to believe what they have themselves mostly invented, trade languishes, confidence becomes paralyzed, and instead of a busy sea son, such as we here have a right to expect, comes a hesitation to invest, a reluctance to spread out or make purchases. Notably is this the case with business men and cannery men; they hear a good deal and believe the most of it; they don't like to buy sup plies or put ont money when eTery breeze brings fresh rumors of what terrible things are going to happen. In all lines of business a disturbance, a shaking of individual reliance must necessarily ensue. The most of this present talk of trouble is purely imaginary. It is for you who read this in your workshop, your store, at your coun ter, by your bench, to say whether we shall have trouble or not. The trouble will come it it comes at all, with a crowd of reckless men, ready for anything tbat promises booty, who will be on us in the next sixty days. No ono in Astoria wants trouble, unless it be a few gutter snipes who never earned an honest dollar and are ready for a row or any thing else that gives a chance to get away with somebody's property. But the citizens, the business men, the workingmen, and that includes all of us who earn an honest living, want no trouble. It doesn't pay. How can we best avoid it? By uni ty. By concert of action. By agree ing that what is the interest of one is i tbe interest of all and standing in to gether. 'Tis said tbat the Knights of Labor are going to drive tbe Chinese out of Astoria, going to make them leave and shut the canneries up.. The Knights of Labor are notgoing to do anything of tbe kind. "Wo published their principles and platform a short time ago and are assured by promin ent members of tbe order that is what tbey are banded together for. Tbe Knights of Labor of tbis city have too much good sense to want to hurt any thing that would interfere with the prosperity of the city. They don't propose to attempt a wholesale turning out of the Chinese. It is not in their creed to injure tbe deserving. It is a part of their purpose to uphold the dignity of labor, to protect their own race against J slave labor, and in following this out whenever they come in contact with a serf of any degree they try to force him to the wall In this tbey have precisely as good a right to combine for their in terests as tbe steel rail men of Pitts burgh, the oil men of Cleveland, the whisky men of Chicago, the barbed wire men of Detroit, the pork meu of Cincinnati, the grain men of New York. This combination business works well for manufacturers; why shouldn't it work as well for the meu who furnish tbe labor that makes value for the manufacturers?. And while talking about tbe Knights of Labor we want to say a word about those incendiary notices posted up in tbe post office last Sun day morning. There were a good many rumors yesterday regarding tbo connection of tbe Knights of Labor with them, and it was said and sur mised tbat it was at their instigation that the notices were put up. So far I is this from the truth tbat as soon as tbey were discovered a prominent member of tbat organization pulled them down, and as soon as it was possible tbe Local Assembly got out hand bills disclaiming any connection with the act, and offering a reward of $50 for the discovery of the per son who did it. "Whoever he is be is no friend of tbe Knights of Labor. he works on tbe same principle as tbe Oregonian who would dearly love to see a row in Astoria, or some disturb ance tbat would injure us. We believe if there was a row here to-morrow that the meu who compose the Knights of Labor wonld spring to the defense of the city's interests with as much readiness and alacrity as any others, individually and col lectivelv, and we further believe that if a conflict takes place here next summer they to a man will bo found on the side of law and order. And this brings us to the idea that we started to advance. Let us meet not as enemies but friends. .Wo have a common interest, cannerymen, mechanics, workers, officials, profes sional men. men of every pursuit in life, one man being just as good as another and none better than his neighbor. On this plane of equality let us meet as American citizens and settle whatever comes between us. We, you who may possibly grow sar castic as you read this and smile, all of us may need all our combined force to protect all that we hold dear, our families, our property, our homes. Let us not divide our strength, but get together and understand each other. Human nature is the same in all of us and it is for us as individu al members of tbe community to up hold tbe good name of our little city. In doing tbat we will best serve our own private, individual interests. Let cannerymen make up their minds to do even now what they could with great propriety have done early in the season give all knitting of nets to white men. Here is where a good deal of this dissatisfaction started. When a white man finds a Chinaman in direct competition with him. takinsr the bread out of the mouths of himself and his children, someone has got to go, and it isn't the Ghinaman that will stay. Put yourself in the placo of this man. How would you feel about it? Let the cannerymen appoint a committee, to meet and deliberate with a like committee from thoso who agitate this matter. Let there bo no arro gance on one side nor ill will on tbe other. This thing can be settled in an hour's talk between men who on both sides want to see harmony and good feeling. -There is no reason why anything but harmony and good feeling should exist if you go about it tbo right way. No one here is going to drivo tbe Chinese away by threats or force or violence. What they are going to try is to get work for a white man in preference to a Chinaman everywhere that work can be found. Is thero anything wrong about that? Of course a man has a right to say who he shall employ or who he shall not employ but other people who are not employers but who are as necessary have something to say too. It is bet ter to temporise, to do what you can, not what you wish. Tbere is some foolish talk about "getting a man-of-war." Tbat is the silliest rot. Twenty men-of-war would do no good. Whenever it got to that stage that soldiers and guns and ma rines showed here in an effort to keep the peace, the Chinese would get out themselves in short order. If there is anybody that really wants to Bee every last one of them leave he will heartily advocate the instant appear ance of a squadron off tbe bar, and a platoon of soldiers camped in cus tom house square. The Chinese would strike their tents and no wages that cannerymen could offer would keep them here twenty-four hours. Everyone that gives the subject five minutes thought sees that the canneries can not run this season without some Chinese. No one is going to make an effort to have a clean sweep of the Chinese out of tbe Columbia river canneries for that wonld paralyze the business, and bring disaster directly or indirectly on every one in the place. But there are too many Chinese here for the good of the city; there is a big lot of money sent away tbat could be made do good by being dis tributed to laborers who would build up homes, buy land, improve the place and make it grow faster than it is growing. For this reason any white man that wants to work should have a chance; a place should be made for him, even if ono or two or three Chinamen have to go. 'lis better that a white man should crowd the Chinaman ont than that he should crowd the white man out. This thing has got to be recognized, has got to bo talked of and under stood. It has to come some time: we would rather see it any timo but the present; the cannerymsn, with very few exceptions, have lost money right aleng: they are not in good shape to meet froublo or vexation of any kind, and this, e: course, upsets some or tneir calculations. They didn't bring the Chinamen horo; they are not responsible for his presence and they should not receive blamo and contumely for doing what every body else here has done made a con venience of the Chinamen. But there is no dodging this thing. Bather must we all make the best of it and get on with as little friction as possi ble. The above is an honest expression i or opinion on the part of this news paper. We don't want to see trouble or angry words or bittorneas; we don't want to see business injured; we don't want to see men enemies when there is no reason on earth why they shouldn't bo good friends. We do want to see a public spirit, a unity nf nonfimnnf. nmnnrjnnri'ihViina Wnrfc summer some wild spirits ripe for a row and fresh from tbe Sacramento may whoop for a high price for fish, I and at the same time have a secret agreement with their masters who sent them here that they will settle on a basis of thirty cents at the end of the season. These fellows have no care for us. We would be good material for them to loot. Incited by their leaders they would try to raise a mob and give us grave trouble. We don't want to see men now living here divide and giow apart when they may need unity and cooperation in the presence of a common danger. The Astorian has no fears from any one now here. But it considers it its duty to suggest that in union is strength, and that if we quarrel and fall out now we may have cause to regret it before the close of the sea son. ItttcUlciiN Arnica Salve.

Then you be alive. No business was ever built up by continually running it down. If in stead of talking about the town, and slandering the minister or the mer chant, people would help to elevate the place and encourage its workers, the condition of things would soon be better. No one ever built up self by tearing down his brother; 'tis against the law of nature: "United we stand, but divided we don't," was more the truth than a direct quota tion. Grumblera and fault finders are like those who look through col-; ored glass and see everything col ored; and those who criticise others so much, are like those who are drunken, and see everyone reeling but themselves. An old professor on being asked by now comers, what kind of people there were in the town, would always inquire what kind of people they had formerly lived among; and after their answer, would reply: "Well, you will find them much tbe same here." People's hearts are mir rors, and when we look therein, we see only a reflection of our own lives. Prof. Patton once said, "The water in your own well is not much differ ent from that in all the rest." With the most of people, their good out weighs their bad; and if instead of slandering our neighbor and magni fying the faults of others, we would speak of their good traits and look well to the "glass houses," we would be happier ourselves and make the world much better ana me more pleasant all about us. "As ye would that men should do unto you, do ye even so -to them," is still in vogue. A Citizen.
