ASTOBIA. OREGON:
8ATUKDAY....
JANUARY 15. 1887
Belva A. Lockwood comes
to the front with a prediction that
the following presidential tickets
will be in the field in 1888: De
mocrat, Grover Cleveland and
Samuel J. Randall; Republican,
James Gr. Blaine and John Sher
man; Labor, Henry George and
Terence V.Powderly; Prohibition,
Frances -Willard and John P. St.
John.
Statistics and how cold and
remorseless statistics are proye
that Minneapolis and St. Paul,
those marvels of municipal growth,
are growing at Chicago's ex
pense. The great city of
the lake is almost at a
standstill as far as its commercial
life is concerned and the Chicago
journals are fully alive to the un
welcome fact.
The shivering editor of the
Minneapolis Tribune says, "The
New Year comes in like a Polar
bear." Why, no, it doesn't. The
New Year comes in like a spring
lamb, or a smile from the south,
or a warm kiss, or a gleam of sun
shine, or a fragrant bouquet or a
radiant rainbow, or a genial friend,
or a playful child or like lots of
other welcome things. But no
Polar bear in the Astoria New
Years. No indeedy.
--......,
A "Washington telegram says:
"It is understood that the negotia
tions with the Chinese government,
to which allusion was made in the
President's message, for such a
modification of existing treaties as
will absolutely prevent the intro
duction of Chinese coolie labor
into this country, have just been
brought to a successful termina
tion, and that in a few days an
amended treaty, covering this
point, will be submitted to the
senate for ratification by the stato
department."
In answer to the charge of Hen
ry George that; "If land were
free to those who wanted to use it
there would be no glut in the mar
ket or cry of over production,"
the New York World asks:
"How happens it, then, that with
the land only moderately free
going to those who want it at $1.25
an acre there has been for two
years past a surplus of some 20,
000,000 bushels of wheat carried
over, and so full a production of
other farm products that the agri
culturists have made very little
profits?"

Mrs. Cleveland's 810,000 Bust.
Everything that represents Mrs.
Cleveland, the president's wife, seems
to hava interest to the millions of
people in this country. Her photo
graphs aresold everywhere, and the
photographers tell me they all make
money by them. An enterprising
plaster-cast molder has made a small
bust of the first lady in the land, and
they are sold about the city of Wash
ington for a good price, but now the
government has gone into making
likenesses o the fair mistress of the
White houBe. The old and mutilated
bank notes, when they come back to
the United States treasury, are
chopped up and made into a pulp,
and this is molded into various shapes
and forms. The latest design is a
miniature bust of Mrs. Cleveland. It
takes $10,000 worth of bank notes to
make one of the president's fair wife,
and each figure is labeled: "Made
from mutilated United States bank
notes worth 10,000." These are sold
for a fair price, and are having a
good sale. Baltimore American.
Renews Her Youth.
Mrs. Phoebe Cuesley, Peterson, Clav
Co., Iowa, tells the following story, the
truth of which is vouched for by the
residents of the tewn: "I am 73 years
old, have been troubled with kidney
complaint and lameness for many
years: could not dress myself without
help. Now 1 am free from all pain and
soreness, and am able to do all rav own
housework. 1 owe my thanks to
Electric Bitters for having renewed my
youth, and removed completely all dis
ease and pain."

We beg to renew our notice to the Fisheries of the upper Pacific,
of the full preparation we have made and are making to manufacture
good wares for their use, of every kind, except double knotted Salmon
Nets: Pounds and Traps, Gill Nets, Seines, from sardines to porpoise.
We advise the practicability of using
Purse Salmon, Seines
For outside fishing. One can be made very strong and verv light, and
can be handled QUICK LOW IN COST. In the New England
waters are over four hundred large Purse seines for mackerel, herring
and menhaden, 200 fathoms long,
in compact bodies can be taken in
We offer the
Stow Cotton Salmon Twine
with a full belief that its strength is
durability than flax, and no more expensive. Our energies, with a lonjj experi
ence in nettings, and a desire to send good waies to our patrons, we hope will not
ttisapomt any reasonable expectations.
