" ASTORIA, OREGON?
THU BSD AY JT.lt SBRgARY 3. 1S7
An unknown bark is reported
ashore at Oaett river, five miles below
Cape Flattery.
The bill merging the position of po
lice jadaje into the office of city aud
itor and clerk has pas3ed the slate
senate.
The telegraph line is working all
right between this city and Clifton;
further east it is in a badly demoral
ized condition.
EesidentB who last week wanted 'a
change of climate" have it thia week
without being obliged to spend a
cent for traveling expenses.
jjrxhe January tides and high winds
have cadsed considerable damage to
the'dykes, repairs of which have been
postponed till more favorable weather.
The Astor House is being pnt in
thorough repair again. The insur
ance companies promptly adjusted
the claim, paying Messrs. Wyatt &
Thompson S2.812.50.
The storm has been severe on the
calle and "particularly hard on the
birds, many of whom, frozen stiff,
were found in various places in this
vicinity yesterday morning.
At San Diego, Cal only four-hun-dredths
of an inch of rain fell in Jan
uary, Here there fell 18.21 inches in
that.tims, or 456 times as much as on
the arid Southern California coast.
.Benton and Main streets were can
ters of attraction last evening and
every one who could get a sled had
it and was sliding down the best slid
ing ground in western Oregon at a
great rate.
California butter and "Portland"
eggs are for sale. Sometime Astoria
will quit sending money awav for
what could be produced here, but it
will be when the supply is equal to
the demand.
The British bark Arica cleared for
Queenstown yesterday, with 35.961
bus., wheat, worth $22,500. The
American ship Snow & Burgess
cleared, for the .same port, carrying
81,500 bus", wheat, worth $55,960.
The lower house at Salem has done
nothing so far this week, the absence
of a snowed up delegation of legisla
tors somewhere between Yaquina
and Cdrvallis making that branch of
the state legislature temporarily
harmless.
Postmasters are subject to a fine if
they read 'postal cards passing
through their offices, and are subject
to a fine if they deliver any having
obsoe'ne "matter written or printed
thereon, and just what they are go
ing to do about it is what puzzles a
good many postmasters.
It is reported that a bill was intro
duced in the state senate yesterday
designed to cut down the present fees
of the offices of sheriff and county
clerk. Itseem3 improbable, though
among so many bills as are being i 1
troduced, it is possible such a bill
may have een shoved in along with
the rest.
Henry Wattenberg, a single man, j
a native of liermany, aged 4o years,
died at his rooms at Mrs, Wallmau's
at midnight last TaesJay night, of
dysentery. The funeral will be held
at two o'clock this afternoon, from
the f aneral parlors of J. C. Ross, un
der the auspices of the Columbia
Biver Fishermen's Protective Union.
The interment will be on the hill.
The Tacoma News thinks it singu
lar that the disabled schooner Isabel
Nickerson, didn't put into Astoria for ;
repairs instead of going into Port S
Townsend, and asks The Astobian
why the vessel didn't come in here.
Probably the captain could inform
our Sound contemporary, lie prob
ably thought it better to scud before j yourself short of breath when ex
the wind, which would be dead aft, ercising, or your heart has periods
than to come about and try to beat
down against a sou'wester.
The real estate and insurance busi
ness ot Bozorth & Johns, which has
been in existence a little over four
years is dissolved, A F. Johns retir
ing. The business will in future be
conducted by J. O. Bozorth, whose
well known business ability and ex
perience is sufficient proof that the
business will not suffer in his hands.
He has-added two companies to his
alre'ady,-extensive agency and will
write policies to the satisfaction of
the insured.
The net" earnings of the sheriff of
MultnomaTi county, says the News,
daring the two years ending Decem
ber 31, 1886, were S16.579.75, being the
largest of any sheriff in the state; the
net earnings of the clerk of Multno
mah during the same time were S7,
43148, exceeded only by the clerk of
Umatilla, wnose nee earnings were
$12,476.96. The sheriff of Tillamook
oounty earned 3533.83 and the clerk
$1,183.99 being the smallest in the
state for their respective offices.
Where all the sleighs and runners
came from is a mystery. No sooner
does a snowfall occur than the next
morning dozens of sleighs, cutters,
sleds and jumpers are dashing around
the city, horses, bells, robes aud all
complete. Yesterday was just right
for sleigh riding, the -air was warm,
the snow was dry and the afternoon
a bright one. The youngsters too
had great fun, and in the evening the
white beaten tracks lit up by the
electrio light and covered by hun
dreds of people presented a brilliant
spectacle.
Little Effie, three yeard old, went
to a strange city with her mamma to
visit an uncle, and the next morning
was occupied in flattening her nose
against the window pane and satisfy
ing her childish cariosity by gazing
at tkt uaoicud scaw. "Oh, auntie!
do see this awful homely man."
"Hush, child. That i3 Mr. Lord, the
mayor. You must not talk that way.
Ee is a very nice man." "Mister
Iiod?' and the noa presses closer
against the gla", whi'e ElEe watches
him clear out of sight "11.. !" with a
toss of her little head, "1 know he
never made mop
Chief engineer Woreley was busy
yesterday. The condition of the
streets made locomotion a matter of
difficulty and in case &f fire it wonld
be almost impossible to get the en-1
gmes there; so a team of horses was
placed at 2?o. 2's engine house, and
later a team got ready to be stationed
at No. One's, the fire traps thawed
out and everything in order for
prompt Bervice in case of need. Two's
had a sort of drill, the horse3 being
hitched up and the engine got nt in
quick time, affording the unusual
spectacle of horses drawing a fire en
gine through the streets of Astoria.
Some Portlauders having written
to C. P. Huntington to ascertain
whether arrangements had yet been
consummated between his company
and the O. & C. R. R. for the acquisi
tion of the latter, and for its connec
tion with the California system, the
Oregonian reports that a letter was
received from Mr. Huntington's of
fice in reply, baying: "Notwithstand
ing the confident accounts put into
the newspapers within the last few
days, negotiations have not been
closed, nor does Mr. Huntington know
when they will be. i'hey have lasted
two or three years already and may
last some time longer."
Later news from the unfortunate
legislators who went on a picnic to
Yaquina, is to the effect that they left
that pleasant port at five o'clock last
Tuesday morning and walked nine
miles and then bundled into a freight
car and gat to Corvallis and then
went to bed and started yesterday
morning on a boat (the Bentley,
which recently sank but: was raised
again) for Albany and then got on
another boat and got to Salem. Poor,
fellows! Walking through ten inches
of snow nine miles to get back to
their cozy quarters at Salem. They
paid dearly for their rashness in go
ing so far from the capital The
whole business is an outrage on the
honorable body. There ought to be
another "investigation," and the state
press is derelict in its duty it it does
not immediately demand it. It will
only take a week or so and then the
legislature will be ready to adjouru.

Wisdom's Robartine:
Poetland, Dee. 22, 1886.
To Mr. W. M. Wisdem: The

Yours truly,

the existence of such an endorse

been before the public but a short

dinary. Wisdom's Robertine is for
sale by all the leading druggists.

WHAT OUR STATESMEN AEE DOING.
A Day's Record of Legislative Proceeding
at Salem.
SEKATE.
Salem, Feb. 1. The Senate was called
to order by President Carson. Roll call.
There was no prayer offerpd, as usual.
No minister being present, the president
ordered the journal of yesterday read;
which waB approved.
Barin called np S. J. R. No. 13. It was
called up on the resolution appointing a
joint committee to inquire whether the
Willamette Valley and Const Raiiroad
had earned the lands granted it by the
state,
Barin said he introduced the resolution
at the request of residents in the district
where the lands lie. He quoted from tho
law granting the land, and went on to
show that the company had not com
pleted the road in the prescribed time.
He said that the company had Hied a
statement with the Governor that the
road had been completed, and that a suit
waB now pending at law in which the
company claimed they had not completed
the road. If the railroad company has
not complied with the law, they should
not be entitled to the land. Settlers
could not get proper title to the laud in
the present shape.
Siglin said it appeared that the resolu
tion was for the purpose of preventing
the Governor issuing title to the company
for the land. Ho said the road was now
built, and the company was now strug
gling for money in tho east to equip the
road. All unfriendly legislation would
only cripple the road. We want roads,
ana our efforts suouia De in tneir interest,
Yuquina owes everything she has and
what she expects to this road. If not for
this, Yuquina would only be settled by
clams aud crabs. The company has done
everything possible to develop the country
and complete the road. This little ob
jection is immaterial. There is no merit
in the resolution. It will look like un
friendly legislation to the capitalists of
tho east.
Miller said it was unwise and improper
to consider the resolution now. The
member of that locality was not present.
A number now were visiting in that lo
cality, and he moved to lay on the table.
Barin was allowed to explain that he
was not unfriendly to tho railroad. He
said if the company had not earned the
lands the government should not go to
the expense of surveying the lands, aud
have a question raised as to title.
The resolution was laid on the table.
The. president announced that he had
signed tha resolution submitting an
amendment to-the constitution prohibit
ing the sale and- manufacture of liquord
to a vote of the people
The bill amending thecharter of Salem

A Toupli But Triumphant Witness.
An eminent lord chnf justice, who
was trying a right-of-way case, had
before him a witness an old farmer
who was proceeding to tell the jnry
that he had "knowed the path for
sixty yeer, and my feytber tould I as
he heerd my grnnfeyther zay "
"Stop," said the judge; uwe can't
have hearsay evidence here," "Not!"
exclaimed farmer Giles. "Then how
dost know who thy feyther was 'cept
by hearsay?" After the laughter had
subsided the judge said: '"In courts
of law we can only be guided with
what yon have seen with your eyes,
and nothing more or less." ''Oh, that
be blowed for a tale!" replied the;
uirmer. x ua got a uuoon rue ujick
of my neck aud I never seed 'un, but
1 be prepared to swear that he's there,
dang uu! This second triumph on
the part of tho-witness let in a torrent
of hearsay evidence about the foot-
path which obtained weight with tho
jury, albeit the judge told them it
was not testimony of any value, and

What True Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
uerman syrup witnin a lew years, has
astonished the world. It is withoi-t
doubt the safest and best remedy ever
discovered for the speedy and effectual
pure of Coughs, Colds and the severest
Lung i rouble'-. It acts on an entirely
different principle from the usual
presci iptiofis given by Physician'', as it
does not dry up a Couuh and Ieae the
disease still in tho system, but on the
contrary removes the causa of the
trouble, heals the paits affee'ed and
leaves them in a purely healthy con
dition. A bottle kept in the house for
use when the diseases make their ap
pearance, will save doctor's bills and a
long spell of serious illne-s. A trial
will convince you of these facts. It Is
po-itively sold by all dtuggists and
f;eneral dealers in the land. Price, 73cts.,
