U-) t gattjj gjusforian. ASTORIA. OREGON: SATUKDAY. riUL 14. 18i8 The Emperor "William during his lite-time saw disappear from the scene six popes, eight emperors, fifty-two kings, six sultans and twenty-one presidents. Four ot thepe are still alive, but the remaining eighty-nine are dead. A trust is a conspiracy to "comer"' the neccessaries of life and to increase the cost to consumers. No trusts are formed in high-price champagnes, in diamonds or in silk worth 83 a yard. The trusts are created to take advant age of the poor. Oxe of the most astonishing delu sions that are recorded in the world's history is that which really prevails to some extent in this country to the effect that over S100,000,000 of super fluous taxation may be raised and the people not feel the burden of it Nothing could possibly be more irra tional, unless it be the companion as sumption that taxation is a benefit to a nation. On the outside page is a thoughtful letter on the great value of the tim ber region to tne southeast, that is commended to the attention of our readers, as illustrative of what prom ise the future holds in store. How near that future may be made depends largely upon Astoria. Astoria has shown its ability to raise a $150,000 subsidy. God aids thoso who aid themselves. In the meantime, the way to do a thing is to do it PERSONAL MENTION. J. Q. A. Bowlby has returned from Portland. Miss Nellie Carnahan is teaching school at Yaquina.

Leltoy returned yesterday morning, with his wife and family, whom he had gono to Portland to meet They were carried around by way of Tacoma, and thus given the inconvenience of a tedious prolonga tion ot the journey from Buffalo, N.Y. Col. S. W. Blasdell, an old time Ne vadan, and of late years prominent in the business and politics of this state, was in the Republican state conven tion this week, from Baker county. CoL Blasdell is enthusiastic about Baker county and eastern Oregon. He and his associates have proved their faith by investing 8300,000 in mines in that vicinity and are devel oping that section. CoL Blasdell will be remembered by many Astorians, he having successfully negotiated the placing of the electric light system by ex-Mayor Trullinger in this city. He is a shrewd business man and an act ive man in party councils, being al ways in the front rank. It is not im probable that he will be heard from politically in the near future.

V. , W. from Tup per's Rock. This discovery affects coast survey chart No. 602.
