Yesterday was a blustery day.- The wind from the southwest brought-the rain in stinting torrents, wmdowB rattled, shutters were blown down, houses shook, dangling signs went flippity-flop, umbrellas were demor alized and general discomfort pre vailed. The barometer suffered from the general depression, indicating 'sj.'ol at 0 o clock last evening. Sheriff S. F.

County clerk Trenchard is recover ing from the injury to his shoulder which was the result of a fall on Wednesday evening, after dark, caused by jhe precipitous irregu larity of the grade on Second street in the immediate vicinity of the post office. Nocturnal pedestrians in that part of the city wend their weary way with fear and trembling humility, for he who goelh forth with pride may have a fall. On account of material chauces and alterations to be made in her store consentient on the dividing it off, to make room for G. W. Bncker's restaurant, Mrs. W. J. Barry has in structed auctioneer E. C. Holden to dispose at public auction of a large surplus stock ot millinery and fancy goods. The sale, it is expected, will be for one night only.

A lot of personal property consisting of two yoke of cattle, wagon and other sun dries, was pnt up in severalty nnd knocked down to various bidders for S425.75. The sale aggregated 87. 67575. . The city council deserve credit for the action they have taken to enp press the disturbance which from the very first marked tho appearance of the Salvation Army in this city. The noisy, boisterous, deviltry-concocting crowd, whjph nightly gathered at the barracks to witness and participate in the cirens on Sunday as well as other nights, did more to inculcate a spirit of lawlessness and profanity among the young people in sight and hearing than could-be -offset by the combined influence for good, ot all tbe preachers in this city. One of police judge Jewett's little sermons, quietly -but firmly delivered, does more to moralize and subdue some mischief makers than weeks of mild remonstrance and sweet persuasion from less official sources. Since judge Jewett pronounced sentence on 'one ot tbese disturbers ot the publio peace mere nas oeen a marjtea change nnd a blissful quiet has Bet tied over the barracks, and it does not seem too soon to assert that prompt repression ot hoodlnmism is the safest, cheapest and most satis factory way to secure quiet, good or der and respect for tie person and property of citizens.

Property Ownen Should Assist tbe Koad Which Will Enhance the Valne of Their Property.. It may be hoped there will be little de lay in tbe building of tbe Astoria & South Coast railroad. Senator Dolph has introduced a new bill giving the com pany tho right to bridge Young's bay, and as there is no opposition whatever to this, congress will probably grant and the president sanction it. Before the end of the next congress pleasure seekers may bo able to ride in cars to Clatsop beach. The above is taken from vesterda 'a Oregonian. It may truthfully be said that from the very first public mention of this Astorian enterprise notning but words ot encouragement and predictions of success in connec tion with it have been uttered by the various papers published in Oregon, which have alluded to it at all. and but verv few have, failed to -do . so;: Astorians appreciate this kindly mention by the press. So far as we can form an opinion, it seem3 to have been the aim of -the directors of the Astoria and South Coast Railway company, to carry on the , work with as little publio parade as possible, preferring to iec me woric as it is continued and accomplished speak for' itself; mind fnl we presume 'of the old rndagej "Actions speak louder than words." Intelligent,-thoughtful men know that there are many difficulties to be surmounted in the preliminary stages of railroad construction, even though it be but a short line: Some times it takes a great deal of patience and 'persevering argumentation to convince a man that he is working against his own personal pecuniary interests in denying the right of way through his property, which perhaps is laud that heretofore "has. been al most worthless because unimproved and unproductive, but which will be enhanced in value very materially so soon as it shall, be. known that the very road he is obstructing . will run through it. We need not go far to find a case in point. In the construc tion of the railroad from .Ilwaco along tho weather beach toward Shoalwater bay, an obstruction ist of the kind referred to gave no little amount of trouble and annoyance' .to the directors of that road. HeTefused to give the right ot way and rejected a compensation far exceeding tbe value of the gronnd required. Arbi tration did not unit him and the com pany wa3 compelled to apply for the legal remedy open to them, and the result was the obstructionist was al lowed by the court n paltry one 'hun dred dollars for the land required, a: sum much less than the company had previously tendered him. We do not refer to this particular one of the many difficulties which it requires time and patience as we.ll as good bnsiness judgment to surmount be cause of any trouble of the kind now delaying the work on tho Astoria and South Coast, we know ot none sneh. On the contrary we are given to un derstand that a majority of the prop erty owners between this citv and Sea. side have already conceded to the com pany the right of way alone the line t surveyed oy enter engineer Henry -JJ. xnieisen, anu we nave no aoaut.mat any who may havo hesitated, will after .mature consideration, fully realize that they have much-more-to gain than to lose, by cheerfully grant ing tho right of way if able to do so, ana it not in circumstances to give, j meu iu us& uuiy u proper irau mir remuneration for their land at "it-, present value, and thus advnnce their own interests while they are facilit'it ing the construction of a road winch cannot but be a lasting benefit to every man, woman nnd child, resident' in Clatsop county. llon'l KAiicriiiicut.

But, a few days ago, he thoughtthe exigencies of the case demanded more serious consid eration. He fell off the porch nrid hurt his mouth so that it bled.

Dempsey is roughing it around Baquetto lake. In a letter published in the Brooklyn -EYterdated Novem ber 20, ho says: . "I readthe notice and feel quite thankful to Charley Mitohell for his magnanimous offer. L will bet him S5.UO0 that he can't stop md in eight rounds. He has made a proposition, and as be has an unlimited amount of cash he can well .afford to stand tho racket. He had .better consider the proposition of the California Ath letic club.
