A dispatch from Portland says 150

that city yesterday.
Twenty acres adjoining Eailway ad

K. Kelly for that amount.
For a great natvspaper, and a sen
sible one, like the Oregonian, that
"Oregoniana," and '"Wasiiingtoniana,"
is very dizzy, and a trifle tart.
Parties fioni Portland say that As
toria addition lots away out are being
sold there as fast a3 the deeds or bonds
for deeds can be made out and signed.
There is one sad feature about the
safe return of Stanley. In a few weeks
all our children at the public schools
Avill be fotceJ to buy a new geo
graphy. Tiiat was a clever and enterprising
bit of work in j-csterday's Oregonian,
getting a list of all the Oregon ap
pointment.0, and a feat that even the
New York Herald might be proud of.
An alleged dispatch yesterday slat
ing that Capt. Gray had been ap
pointed collector of customs, caused
considerable interest, till its source
was discovered. Trenchard always
was fond of a joke
Three compositors who came down
from Portland yesterday to take the
place of the Pioneer force, who went
on a strike, returned to- Portland last
night without going to work. Trouble
about wages is tho reason.
The Evening Transcript was yes
terday bought by L. G. Carpenter, of
San Francisco, who takes charge of it
to-day. Mr. Carpenter is a newspaper
man of practical experience, and TriE
Astokian welcomes him to the city.
Spokane Falls buys wheat in "Walla
"Walla, carries it to its mills, makes it
into flour, and sells the flour in "Walla
"Walla. That's the difference between
enterprise and stickinthemudative
ness. Walla Walla has the natural
advantages, but hasn't the gitupand
git. As a result of a wager Mr. F. Gunn,
of Astoria, and Mr. W. S. Geary, of
Portland, will skate a quarter of a mile
at the rink this evening. Tho race
will take place at 9 r. m. sharp, and
skaters on hearing the gong will clear
the floor to give the participants plen
ty of room to fall.
Says the Albany Herald: "The
papers of a city should pull together
for their city; but this is a cosmopoli
tan age and there is no harm done in
giving a neighbor a good word, par
ticularly Astoria, which is soon to bo
in direct railroad communication with
both Albany and Salem."
By official orders every sign that
reads "O. B. & N." is being removed,
and soon in its place will appear "Pa
cific Division Union Pacific Railway,"
where the old familiar "O.R. &N,"
was printed, painted, embossed, en
graved, cameoed, intaglioed, or other
wise represented, afloat or ashore.
It's a funny thing in these days of
seeking for fat federal billets, that so
far there have been no applications for
two of the best and easiest places in
Oregon. To give it away would be to
spoil the joke, and tho present incum
bents fill the positions and transact
their light duties in a creditable man-
Mr. Gilbert Stevens, father of Mrs.
W. H. Whitcomb, Mrs. Archie Pease
and Mrs. Peter Jordan, died in East
Portland Thursday evening, aged 80
years. The deceased was a resident
and the oldest citizen of Ovsterville.
Wash. The body was brought down
on the Teleplione to day for buriah
The funeral will take place Sunday.
Capt. Gray has found among the
'papers of his recently deceased father,
the historian, a receipt book of an old
Pacific Coast miner noting the im
portant fact that he discovered gold
in California in 18iG. Elsewhere was
found a paragraph from a Califor
nia paper that states that gold was
first found near Yreka,. by Oregon
prospectors.
There were closing exercises in the
Court and Cedar street schools yes
terday afternoon. Miss Lawrence,
the principal of the Cedar street
school, received a present of a gold
pen and penholder from her pupils.
and Pror. Pratt, principal 01 tne (Jourt
street school, was similarly remem
bered. School resumes in district
To. 18 on January 2nd. 1890, and in
district No. 1 on January 6th, 1890.
In teaching the young Chinese Eng
lish a system of singing words and
sentences has been adopted. Here is
an example of how they go through
with it in San Francisce:
0 O W,cow! Ho
giffa milk; he no lay
a egg.
H E N, hen! He lay a
egg he no giffa milk."
And so on through the whole animal
kingdom.
Tlift Union Pacific company has
closed a contract, through Goodall,
Perkins & Co., with Captain Simp
kins, of San Francisco, for the steamer
Signal, which will be placed pn the
route "between Portland, Astoria, the
Sound and British Columbia, in place
of the wrecked Idaho. The Signal
is much such a vessel as the Lakme
nn&MicJtigan, but not quite so large
as either, and has no passenger accom
modations. She will bring a cargo of
combustibles, and then go on her
route at once.
Tom Phillips, of Port Townsend,
told the boys if they shivareed him
the night of his marriage with Susan
Acton that he'd shoot. They shiv
areed: he shot, and killed John Hall,
aged 19, and seriously wounded John
Graham, aged 33. Phillips deserves
a vote of thanks, and if tried should
be given a verdict of "not guilty."
Any idiot who will slam around a
man's house the night of his marriage
is hardly worth shooting, but the
noi&e can at the time be stopped easi
est by annihilating the insect that
produces it.
"Why don't you build some houses T
was what an Astorian reporter asked
a few folks yesterday who have the
financial ability. The answers were
various. Some said that considerable
money was tied up in timber land and
real estate; others that it was next
to impossible to get lumber; that the
demand far exceeded the supply;
others, still that there was more money
for them in other present enterprises.
All agreed on one proposition, viz:
that building ought to go on. It
looks badly, to visitors, and strangers,
to have it appear as though the town
was finished; as though there were no
more structures to be erected, when
as a matter'of fact, a hundred houses,
if ready this morning, for occupancy,
would be all filled by Monday next.
Every day come repeated inquiries for
dwelling houses This is not written
as a "boom" item, nor for that effect;
but a3 a plain statement of an exist
ing fact If, as is probably the case,
we are all too busy making money, to
stop to build houses for other people
to live in, even at a good rent, yet the
necessity of such action in connection
with the city's proper growth, should
be recognized, and acted, upon.
Yesterday morning was again re
ceived the Congressional Record.
This admirable journal, which is pub
lishedat Washington, D.C., suspended
in the bright days of last summer by
reason of circumstances entirely be
jond its control. It has, however,
been resuscitated, aud will, doubtless,
gladden us by its regular arrival for a
season. It is a well printed, though
somewhat carelessly edited journal,
and has some real cute things in it.
It has statements that appear in no
other journal, but as to news, real live
news, and locals, The Astorian scoops
it right along. The issue to hand
states that the Record will oe sent
for S3 for a long session and 4 for a
short session. That there may be no
njistake, it states that this will be a
long session. People who supposed
that this was going to be a short ses
sion weie fooled. It's going to be a
long one. The Astoriak i3 glad to
swap on equal terms with its Wash
ington, D. C, comp. It has always
credited The Astorian for what it
has culled from these columns,
and this paper will always have a
good word for the Record for its man
ifest desire to be square.

THE FEDERAL APPOINTMENTS.
Well, thirteen months and thirteen
days have gone by since the election
which put the Republicans on the top
in this nation, and now comes a list of
the federal appointments in this state.
They haven't been exactly appointed;
for the names must first be sent in to
the senate by President Harrison, as
his nominations, and then confirmed
by that body of 84 men; but the reco
mendation of congressmen and sen
ators in this instance, is equivalent to
a nomination, and a nomination is
equivalent to a confirmation in Ore
gon, but not in New York or Ohio.
Astorians were considerably inter
ested in the Astoria appointments,
and indirectly in the state at large.
The recommendations are for col
lector of customs at this port, E. A.
Taylor; this being the most import
ant federal office in the place, on that
the interest centers. The applicants
were E. A. Taylor, J. H. D. Gray, Jas.
W. Welch, and W. W. Parker. It
was thought that the position lay be
tween Taylor and Gray, with the
probabilities in favor of the former.
The Oregon delegation has recom
mended J. W. Welch and Jno. Hahn,
for deputies, and Frank Ward for in
spector. It is not probable that the recom
mendations which were omitted in the
Portland collectorship will be very
striotly observed iu the Astoria in
stance. The recommendation of J. H. D.
Gray, for postmaster is a genuine sur
prise: it was considered a certainty
that Jno. Hahn would be recom
mended for that position. It is not at
all likely that Capfc. Gray will accept
that positien: it is a most onerous
one, is poorly paid: the work is very
heavy and the salary very light, and a
man can do at least as well in the
office as out of it.
Captain Gray has only one hand:
there is enough there for a man with
three hands, and he has to have a
hide as thick as a newspaper man's to
stand the cussing that he would get,
because he did or didn't do some
thing, and under the circumstances,
it is not probable that, not gettimg
the position he aspired, to, that he
will consent to be sidetracked into the
Astoria post office.
The recommendations look like the
result of a compromise more than en
tiro unanimity of opinion among sen
ators Dolph and Mitchell, nnd con
gressman Herman.
Tho selection of L. T. Barm for
U. S. Marshal is.'another surprise, as
he was booked for the Portland col
lectorship, which falls into the lap of
R. P. Earhart: Geo. Steel, of course,
gets the Portland post office.
The nominations all through, show
there was a tremendous amount of
figuring, and our three representa
tives, at Washington, D. C, are doubt
less glad that the thing is done with,
and that their troubles in that direc
tion are over.
Whenever the subject came up,
ever since Harrison's election, tho
expression was, "well, I don't care
who gets it, so that an Astorian is ap
pointed; I dou't want to see an out
sider get away with it"
An Astorian gets it and will worth
ily fill it Mr. Taylor was the recipi
ent of many sincere congratulations
yesterday evening.
OFT I THE MILLY MGI1T.
I will always remember, in tbn month
of December,
One night aa I lay down to rest and
turn over on my side;
But the noise was astounding, of an old
coal oil can bounding
On the rocks by the beach as it. swept
with the tide.
And as it drifted along, with its infernal
ding dong,
1 thought that the whole of creation
Was in league with the deep, to keep mo
from sleep,
Along with the Army of Salvation.
So I sat up in bed, and to myself said:
Though I don't wish my "fellow-being
harm;
But I think, that the man, that threw out
that, can,
Will soon find himself in a place that
is warm.
Then I said in my plight, for the rest of
the night,
Though my nerves had received a great
shock,
That I could not find, any peace for my
mind,
And resolved to go under the dock.
Imagine my surprise, for under my eyes,
It was dancing around as if it knew
what
Noise it was making, and tho heads that
were aching,
And wishing 'twas cast on some silent
spot.
But as every tumble caused some one to
grumble
And say they hoped some decent man
Would go under the dock, and take a big
rook,
And bury it into that old coal oil can.
In the cold I stood shaking, the racket in
taKing,
A suggestion came into my head:
You had better, dear man, go alter your
plan,
And take yourself back to your bod.
I did.

About two weeks ago at Chilcat
while two young bucks were engaged
in a friendly scuffle, one of them re

his antagonist's head, which so aroused
his brute nature that he immediately

dian dead As the tribal customs of
the Indians include "blood atone
ment," or an eye for an eyo aud a"
tooth for a tooth, immediately after
ward a brother of the murdered In
dian went gunning also and soon had
the murderer laid besido his victim.
As this was strictly according to In
dian law, peace and quiet in the Chil
cat village now reign supreme.
THE WRECK OF THE "ID UIO."
"j Per Cent, of the Cargo II i IJreu Suvtd.
Captain Hayden McClellan, agent
of the Pacific Coast Steamship com
pany, has returned from making a sur
vey of the wrecked steamer Idaho.
The steamer rests on rocks at the bow
and stern, and at these points large
holes have been made in tho hull,
otherwise the hull is not seriously in
jured. Captain McLellan was asked
if it was the intention to save the ves
sel. He replied that, as the vessel wa3
old, it would hardly pay to do so. All
of the cargo, except 150 tons of coal,
fifty-six barrels of oil and 200 barrels
of salmon, was saved. The oil and
salmon were so deep in tho hold,
which was partially submerged, that
a diver would have to be employed to
save them, and this would be too ex
pensive. Altogether, about 75 per
cent, of the cargo has been saved.
The part of the cargo saved consists
of general merchandise, household
goods and hops. All but four bales
of hops were saved.
It is .the intention to next begin the
work of saving the engines and boilers.
When this is done the old Idaho,
which for so many years buffeted the
waters of the Pacific, will bo left to
her fate. Engines and boilers of this
description always depreciate in value
when taken from the vessel they are
butlt for, ihe reason being that it is
hard to fit them into other vessels.
The loss on the Idaho, which was
owned by the Oregon Improvement
company, will be reduced to 15,000.
