ASTORIA. OREGON:
Fill DAY...
-NOVEMBER S. 18S9,
TO DE OWNED IN ASTORIA.
An Astoria built boat to ply be
tween here and Portland carrying
passengers and freight is talked of.
It is believed that such a boat as the
traffic requires could bo built and
equipped for 5,000. It is also be
lieved that the business, rightly man
aged, would be a profitable one. The
question to be considered is how the
capital would, could or should best be
raised. It has been suggested that a
joint stock company be formed and
the necessary funds be secured in tjiat
way. Whether the apparent profit
would be sufficient to justify any one
or two men to go into it, is for those
who have experience in such business
to determine. At first glance it looks
as if this were entirely a matter
for private or individual capital
to consider. It may be argued that
if any one thinks he sees a chance for
' profit in an enterprise of this nature,
ho would individually invest all the
required capital, in hopes of making
-all the resultant profit. Nevertheless,
co-operation in such things is not un
usual and when rightly managed is
uniformly successful.
A man may have the practical knowl
edge and experience and not be pos
sessed of the capital necessary to prop
erly project the enterprise, and with the
partial aid of others he could create a
business that would be of general use
and value. That such a combination
will be effected is very probable, and
that it will be permanently prosperous
is almost equally so.
The selectmen of Ipswich think
there is more than one way to do a
thing. The law of the city provides
that the selectmen may make repairs
on the city hall without a vote; but a
vote is necessary to build a new city
hall. Three years ago a vote on the
subject was had, resulting in a defeat
whereupon the selectmen raised the
old city hall up sixteen feet and put
under a brick foundation, and added a
building two stories high in the rear
as a part of the repairs; the total
amount of the repairs was 16,000.
Next year it is proposed to repair the
city hall by removing the old part
and replacing it with new material.
The original hall was worth S400.
Ex-Pbesidest Cleveland walks to
his office, as the newspapers say that
'his constantly increasing weight
makes exercise a necessity." Yet
quite intelligent men are of the opin
ion that he will run for the next pres
idential Democratic nomination with
alacrity.
Ohio and Iowa in their temporary
Republican defeat illustrates the
folly of Prohibition run mad. Such
present Democratic sticcess as that in
the Hawkeye and Buckeye states is
the logical policy and outcome of Pro
hibition. A cigau manufacturer in Pennsyl
vania is now giving away with a 26-a-thousand
cigar a bedroom suit of
furniture. All the prospective bride
grooms in that state are now buying
their cigars by the thousand.
The famous painting, "TheAnge
lus," was admitted to this country
free of duty, as the property of an art
association. Thus the free traders
have lost another opportunity to howl.
Tite Philadelphia Press has located
"the undiscovered country": "A
northwestern state where the Democ
racy has auv" chance of electing a
congressman.

Washington, Nov. 7. Thomas F.
Bayard, ex-secretary of state, and Miss
Mary William Clymer, were married

Among the latter were ex-president
and Mrs. Cleveland, ex-secretary and

Cleveland's opinions.
Washington, Nov. 7. Ex-president
Cleveland was interviewed last night
on the election results. "It is evid
ent," said Cleveland, "that the leaven
of tariff reform has at last leavened
the whole lump. The west which has
suffered most from the unjust burden
of tariff taxation has awakened. The
state platforms of both Iowa and
Ohio are abreast of the St. Louis
platform on the subject of tariff re
form. The people have considered
and passed judgment It was for the
people to decide. They are now de
ciding. It is enough for me to say
that I am satisfied at the indications,
and the results of Tuesday's elections.
The verdict in Virginia indicates that
tne south is still faithful to the Dem
ocracy of Jefferson and Jackson."
THE MONTANA ELECTION.
Helena. Mont. Nov. 7. Judge De

lot There is a tie for joint member of
the house in Beaver Head and Deer

a new election.
Out of the 22,000 votes cast only

WRECK OF THE "CHESEBROUGH.

tion. THE RESULT IN OHIO.
Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 7. The State
Journal (Republican), says the Re
publican state committee estimates
Campbell's plurality over Foraker.for
governor at from 10,000 to 12,000. Re
turns from nine of the leading coun
ties show that Foraker ran 10,365 be
hind his ticket . In view of this they
claim that the rest of the Republican
state ticket is elected by an average
plurality of &,VW.
A PACIFIC COAST OUTLET FOR THE BUR
LINGTON. New York, Nov, 7 John U.'A.
Griswold, Director of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy road, Bays the
mission west of President Perkins
and Directors Paine and Gardner is
probably to seek a new outlet for the
Burlington to the Pacific coast The
arrangement recently made between
the Union Pacific and the" North
western likely created unexpected
complications, but there will probably
be no deal to offset that until this
year's crops aFe moved. Griswold
also says: "I do not think the
arrangement will hurt the California
business" the Burlington, although
it may take away much of our Oregon
business. We can easily transfer the
former from the Union Pacific to the
Southern Pacific, and I presume our
agent in San Francisco will now make
contracts with that road and the Rio
Grande and Western. We can fur
ther compete with the new combina
tion by reducing the rates on our line
between Denver and Chicago, and
this we shall probably do. There has
always been an antagonism between
the Union Pacific and the Chicago
and Burlington business; and this is
only one way for the exhibition of it"
THIS RE-ELECTS ALLISON.
Chicago. Nov. 7. An Evening
Journal (Rep) DesMoines special
says: While the Democrats claim that
their entire state ticket is elected in
dications as to the result, except for
govenor, are doubtful. The Republi
cans have seven majority in the house
and one in the senate.
THE RESULT IN BOSTON.
Boston, Nov. 7. The senate will
be composed of twenty-nine Republi
cans and eleven Democrats, as com
pared with thirty-two Republicans
and eight Democrats in 1888. There
were 162 Republicans and seventy
eight Democrats returned to the lower
house, a Republican I033 of eighteen.

pital, while getting oil a car ins
