ASTORIA. OREGON:
FRIDAY.
MARCH 14.1800
City ami County Official Paper.
cZxada lias a debt of. 280,000,000
ana a yearly taxation of 47,000,000,
sad Las a population of 5,000.000. "We
hare a population of G5,000,000 and
our national debt would be over $3,
000.000,000 and our annual tax above
S61i.O0O.O00 it we owed as much in
proportion to numbers as our adjacent
neighbor. This terrific burden upon
the people ot the Dominion explains
srhy eo many ot its people are scur
rying over the border to come to us,
and suggests that the United Stales
sbould pause and ponder before tak
ing, it it had the power, a people so
heavily hamiered under the American
Sfig. Canada will be obliged to dis
cover some other modus vicendi than
shelter under the wings of the Ameri
can eagle.
Few cities in the United States arc
receiving more favorable mention at
present than Astoria. One thing, how
ever, we must bear in mind, and that
is that we must not rely entirely upon
our natural advantages, but must
manifest an energy and determination
to do all in our power to push on the
work ot public improvements. Let
streets be graded, the city well
lighted, abundant schools provided,
xnd let every individual owner try to
have his home and surroundings neat
and attractive. Encourage good so
ciety and even enterprise which is
calculated to advanco business or
manufacturing, and let every man
work for the good ot the city, irre
spective of any local, petty or per
sonal prejudices.
The kingdoms and monarchies or
the old world are fairly shivering with
terror, and already feel as if they were
seeing the handwriting on the wall be
tokening their speedy destruction.
The grest socialistic wave is sweeping
over the Euroiean nations, and the
vast army of ill-fed and poorly-paid
laborers are rising in their might and
demanding their rights. The won
derful success of this mighty re
public of ours, which in 113 years has
sprung from nothing to the front rank
nmong the nations ot the earth, has
aroused in the breasts of the poor and
down trodden or foreign lands a de
arc for a republic and ere many years
shall pass away, that desire may be
realized, and on the ruins of the
thrones of tlie old world may be built
the enduring towers of the United
States of Europe.
THE QUESTION SETTLED.
This is n faithful pic
tnrc of the establish
ment of Thomas Price
Son, nt 521 Sacra
racnto St, S. F. As tbo
leading chemists of
the west, they were
eked to settle the qncstion as to what sarsa
rri&s were ia fact rarely vegetable. IVc
preset their report. "We have made careful
AcKies.1 ezatyscs of several well tooicn brands
tf ferszparUla, czd have found them all with
ftetixclc exception of Joy's to contain iodide of
ptHufiaxz. As a result we ere enabled to pro
Ksce Joy's to le Vie only purely vegetable
serjspcrfHa now on the viarkct, which has come
taAcr our observation." Modern medicine
fes proven that all ordinary face eruptions
re c&cscd by Indigestion and slusjish circu
Ution, which call for vegetable alteratives,
iastc&d ot mineral blood purifiers lite iodido
ai jotassiurs. Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla
is Us first to discard the old notions and pro
ceefitadcr the modern thoory. Its cures are
lie tilt of the hour.
The Kansas state board of agricul
ture reports that the population of
that state has declined 56,633 the past
year.

fact, yon must have it, to fully enjoy

this boon. And yet it may he had by
