Last Wednesday morning while
one of the Chehalis prisoners was re
turning to Montesano to procure bail,
immediately after leaving Olympia,
he was seized with sickness, and had
to be taken to the hospital, where he
expired balf an hour after his admis
sion. To the'llth inst, there had arrived
in San Eranoisco from Alaska, 152,

The county commissioners met yes

possibly be finished before the middle
of November and perhaps it will be
the beginning or' middle of December
before trains will run through to
Portland.
No Teredo at Astoria.
The following brief dispatch from
San Francisco illustrates graphically
the great expense entailed by the ter
edo, a small marine worm that at
San Francisco and on Fuget sound
honeycombs the piles.
Sak Fbancisco, Sept. 23. Tho Oregon
dock, under pressure of immense weight,
suddenly sank yesterday and caused con
siderable consternation. It was found
that the dreaded teredo had been at
work and destroyed many of the piles.
The damage has been repaired.
There is no danger of this kind at
Astoria. Logs may lie in the water
in perfect safety. Piles driven here
thirty years ago, when replaced this
fall were found sound at the core.
The teredo is unknown here, and its
absence ia "worth millions of dollars
to Astoria as a lumber center.

ANARCHISTIC DESIGNS.
Washington, D. C, Oct 20. A
translation is given here of a commu
nication to La Tribuna National, of
Buenos Ayres, which contains an
alarming account of the workings and
intentions of anarchists in the United
States. The writer is supposed to be
a member of one of the South Ameri
can legations in Washington, and the
article is, therefore, not as reliable as
it is sensational. It is declared that
"secret preparations are toeing made
by the international fraternity of so
cialists and anarchists, who are mak
ing ready for a revolution in the
United States in 18S9, the anniversary
of the French revolution. The Bed
International league is a soulless as
sociation of anarchists who are now in
force in Chicago biding their time,
having selected the date of the anni
versary of the French revolution for
their uprising, supposing that on
that day many manufacturers will
close their shops, and a general panic
will reign.
"The Beds are estimated at about
100,000 strongj.and they expect that
by the year of the panic they will
have increased to 400,000. They pro
pose to make Chicago the headquar
ters of the revolution in 1889, where
there will be a combination of the di
verse branches of the International
league, and a complete programme, is
drawn up on the government which
will be substituted for the one under
which the people live now as soon as
the revolution triumphs."

Of THE
It was learned with surprise yester
day that the officers at Fort Canby
had received official telegrams the
purport of which was to stop all work,
close active operations and hold the
men in readiness to leave the fort
The idea appears to be to abandon
the post and withdraw the garrison.
Some time ago General H. C. Du
nne, chief of engineers, was out here
on an official inspection tour. It is
understood that from him came the
recommendatien: it is said to have
been approved by the general of tho
army and the secretary of war.
Whether the matter has gone so far
as to be beyond the domain of re
monstrance is not clear. General
Howard, commanding the division of
the Pacifio, was telegraphed to re
garding the matter last evening, and
an answer -will probably be received
to-day: to senator Dolph in Washing
ton, senator Mitchell and congress
man Hermann dispatches were also
sent
If the policy of Gen. Sheridan be
to concentrate troops in large garri
sons it need form no part of that pol
icy to construe an artillery post like
Canby as being within the promise of
such governmental action,
The mouth of the Columbia is of
sufficient strategic importance to re
quire the maintenance of at least one
garrison, and for obvious reasons it
appears to be the opposite of wise
policy on the part of tho powers that
be to remove all the troops from
both the north and south banks of
the mouth of the greatest river of the
west Astoria is not interested in
this matter so much as the entire
northwest What with curtailment
of mail facilities, refusal of needed
river and harbor appropriations and
proposed removal of troops from im
portant stations, it seems as though
this section of the Union is being
treated like a neglected step-child.
Protest, prompt, vigorous and ear
nest should be made against this
proposed removal, and proper repre
sentation may have the effect of re
scinding this unwelcome order.
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
At a called meeting of the chamber
of commerce last evening to take ac
tion on tho proposed transfer of the
two companies of the 1st artillery
now at Fort Canby, the president and
secretary were, on motion, instructed
to immediately telegraph to the mili
tary authorities at Washington a
protest against such proposed trans
fer, with cogent reasons therefor, and
also to telegraph to our senators and
representative the disapproval with
which tho matter was viewed by the
people of this section. It was, also,
on motion, decided to telegraph the
Portland board of trade, askiug their
co-operation in tho matter.
The question of establishing au ex
press company to operate between
here and points in Pacific and Che
halis counties was ably and exhaus
tively discussed without arriving at
any definite conclusion.
The matter of surveying townships
not yet open to settlement or pur
chase and which remain closed by
reason of the meager government ap
propriation for that purpose not be
ing sufficient, also came up fordis
oussion. On motion a committee
consisting of Messrs. Gordon, Kin
ney and Boelling was appointed to
report further to the chamber, and
the meeting adjourned.
No Goins Adrift at Astoria.
The following from the Seattle, V.
T., Post-Intelligencer of October 6th
illustrates a difficulty from which As
toria, by reason of its situation, is
happily free:
A telegram from the Stilagnamish, Sat
urday afternoon, announced that the wa
ter in that stream was rising rapidly
from melting snow in the mountains, and
that the mammoth boom had broken and
10,000,000 feet of logs been set adrift,
2,000,000 feet of which went out to sea
and will probably be lost Owners of
small tugs were notified of this state of
affairs and a number of steamers, have
gone down to the mouth of the river to
assist in picking up the valuable timber,
which is rapidly being swept out to sea.
The geographical situation of As
toria renders such untoward acci
dents impossible.- The river at Asto
ria is nearly seven miles -wide, and
however great the volume of water
flowing seaward, no danger is appre
hended either from loss of logs or
breaking of booms by reason of sud
den overflow.

Just as Mme. Qualitz had worked

ings since into a paroxysm of delight
with her terpsichorean domiquavers,
upshoots and incurves the silence
was oroKen oy a voice irom tne "rop

"Hey, Clams, deres me Anntv
Kate!"
"Where?" came back from Clams.
"On der stage. She's der fourt'
one in der second row."
"What! Der woman wit' der red
frizzes?"
"Yeh!"
"Hully smoke, she's a corker!"
The conversation was brief, but to
the point, and "der fourt' one in der

considerable attention during the re

That is to say, your lungs. Also all
your breathing machinery. Very won
derful machinery it is. Not only the
larger air-passage3, but the thousands
of little tnbes and cavities leading
from them.
When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to be
there, your lungs cannot half do their
work. And what they do they can
not do well.
Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumo
nia, catarrh, consumption or any of
the family of throat and nose and
head and lung obstructions, all are
bad. All ought to be got rid of. There
is just one sure way to get rid of
them. That is to take Boschee's
German Syrup, which any druggist
will sell yon at 75 cents a bottle.
Even if everything else has failed
you, you may depend upon this for
certain.
