CITY AND COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER A cbauRe in the time-table of the nver steamers will be made in a short tunc Auyone timlin: a bunch or keys will please leave them at Ibis oflice and be rewarded. The Seattle papers give daily pub lication to the list of mortgages tiled in the King county clerks office The wires were working badly early last evening between San Francisco and Portland, which made our dis patches come rather slowly for awhile. E. W. Spencer has sued Captain W. IL 'Whitcomb to recover 8520 alleged damages to the 6teamer Salem, by breaking her noso and otherwise dam aging her. Painting and improving both houses and stores seeme to be prevalent all over the city, which is certainly com mendable, and is an example some others could follow. Sunshine and rain have for several days been struggling for supremacy. The former appeared to have the ad vantage on Sunday, but yesterday the rain was rather in the lead. There was no celebration of St Patrick's day here yesterday, but large numbers of ladies and gentlemen wore green ribbon and ties as a quiet commemoration of the day. The exiensc63 of county and state arc paid by taxes on property, and those who have not already paid their taxes had better give sheriff Smith a call, with coin in hand, for delays are expensive. A few telegraphic items strayed over to the Columbian office for its Sun day, issue but they were not missed from the mass or genuine- California associated press rcort in the Sunday edition of Tnn Daily foiixiKa Asro- Therv. was no meeting of the rail road directors Inst evnniug. It is stated on the authority of one of the finance committee that no negotiation of the bonds has yet been consum mated, all reports to the contrary not withstanding. The Tacoma Globe and Tnn Morn ing Astoriax were the only two pa lters on Uiis northwest coast that received and published entire the Xew York sensation about Gould, last Sunday morning, simultaneously with the New York papers. There were sixteen transfers of real estate filed for record yesterday, one of which was a gift deed from mother to daughter and one a bond for a deed, leaving the considerations named only S9,131, though the property conveyed was worth very much more. The Pioneer, in a dying spasm of candor says, lt is easy to ee what paper gives the news." Well, rather. If the Pionter would throw out two or three columns of dead ads. that are ran to save tyje-8elters bills, it would have room for a few strav items, it self. The hall given last night by the drum corps was attended by numerous dancers; in fact, tho boys had a full house, Liberty hall being crowded. It is hoped they realized a sufficient sum to pay for the uniforms. The boys, are energetic and deserve en couragemeut. A transformation on, in the scene is go ing on, m tue uieaier ana that draughty building will be made a little more comfortable. The expenditure of a couple of thousand dollars would make it comfortable aud attractive, aud bring handsome fiuancir.l returns. In justice May's court yesterday there was a civil suit brought by Dr. O. B. Estes against George Lovett, for $200 for professional service. Tho defendant urged a counter claim for S200. The case went to tho jury, who rendered a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum of Slou. Special order No. 13, issued by Col. Beebc, commander of the First regi racat O. N. G., dated at Portland, March 14, accents the resignation of First Lieut W. A. Sherman and places the command of Company H, ofthiscitv. in tho hands of Second Liaut.IL J. Wherity. In tho southern states nearly every xn&B is a colonel, but here in Astoria we beat that, for every boy in our Amateur drum corps is a colonel, or at least wears the silver eagle on his Moulder straps, the badge of a colonel, save that there is but one row of em broiderv instead of two. If you propose to advertise your business and let people know that you're alive, why not advertise m tho paper that everybody sees, The Astokiax. It is the only paper in Astoria that gives the news, and is the one that everybody instinctively turns to, to see what is going on. Yesterday there arrived among our exchanges tho Coast Mail, of Marsh- SekL of January 3U and jjeDruary o, and the Coos Bay News, of Marsh field, of January 29. These papers are evidently part of the mail from the blockaded Southern Pacific railroad piled up near Cow Creek canyon, and which is only now being sent through. The Real Estate Review of Port lasd says: Astoria and- Albany are rfaeaUv laired in. eatihrother's em braces in antk$jfc&B of -the complo- j tion of the 'Albany and Astoria rail road.

A Salvation army lassie visited all tho real estate offices yesterday trying to convert the occupants. Sis struck a hard job that trip. Tho former gang of Salvationists tackled the newspaper men and succeeded in con verting one or two of 'em, but the real estate men haven't timo to give any consideration to the welfare of their immortal souls; they're too busy selling real estate. Jno. Enberg says he's going to Europe, too. He is going to call on Bismarck and impress upon his nibs the desirability of buy ing some Astoria real estate. If he has time be -will call upon Emperor William. By all accounts his jags will soon be out of a job. and it be hooves him to get in and get hold of two or three corner lots in a thriving town like Astoria before the Berlin folks fire him .out Messrs. Thompson and Dennis of the Pacific Cable Construction Co., were in the city Sunday and in com pany with some of the promoters of the project went over the line of the cable railway. They expressed themselves entirely satis fied. Tho entire subsidy asked for, has been raised. Messrs. Thompson and Dennis started last Sunday night for Seattle, and are expected to return here in a few days. Tho best .way to have the names of the streets placed on tho corners, is for the owners or occupants of buildings to put them up themselves and not wait for the city council to order it Let some energetio sign painter go to work and paint a lot of small boards with the names of tho principal streets, and he can easily sell them if he will offer them at reasonable prices. The Astorian will take Cass and Third, and nearly all business men would buy them and have them nailed up. Who is tho painter to do it? - Section 8, of the act of March 1, 1889, which governs the taking of the approaching census, requires that every enumerator shall take and sub scribe an oath, -wherein, among other things, he swears or affirms that he will not disclose any information con tained in the schedules, lists or state ments obtained by him to any person or persons except to his superior offi cers. Section 13 of tho same act pro vides that any supervisor or enumerator who, having taken and subscribed the oath required by this act, shall commu nicate to any person not authorized to receive the same any information gained by him in the performance of his duties, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be fined not exceeding five hun dred dollars." The Fairhaven Herald, in its second issue, relates how the foundations for a future great metropolitan newspaper are laid. "To go out among the stumps," says Colonel Will Yisscher, "build a house, put in three presses and other machinery, lay type, get a steam engine in working order, au swer four million questions, cuss a tel egraph boy, find time to get a nap once in forty-eight hours, be on time for one meal a day, catch the mails, prop erly maledict the typo foundry that sent tho wrong fonts, hit your thumb nail with a hammer and be calm about it afterward, refuse invitations to drink, light a pipe filled with damp tobacco, write editorials calculated to brace up the republic, edit telegraph, cut out miscellany with a chisel in short to start a newspaper from the ground up is quite a job, thank you, But time and printer's ink work won ders." PERSONAL MENTION. Al Cody came down from Portland Sunday Morning. W. E. Tallent leaves for Cook's In let, Alaska, via San Francisco, to-morrow. M. Studzinski, who has been travel ing through Europe, returned last evening. J. W. Wilking, late of the Western Union telegraph office, has gone to Portland. City Attorney Curtis and Council man Bergman are on a visit to the big city on the Willamette. Messrs. Thompson and Dennis, of the cable company, made a flying visit here and departed for Seattle on Sun day night Sheriff Smith and county clerk Trenchard start this morning for Sa lem to attend a session of the Demo cratic state central committee. Martin Foard, of the firm of Foard & Stokes, has gone to San Francisco, and will bo absent for a while, enjoy ing a little recreation as well as attend ing to business. COLUMBIA RIVER EXPORTS.

Warren and Mao Monteith boarded the steamier Occident, en route to Kamm's farm on the Elaakanine, with three nair of Mongolian pheasants from the Willamette valley. They were turned loose in the orchard, and if unmolest ed, will do welt These are the first of these JrifcU in -.Clatsop county, and will be an acquisition to the feathered inhabitants.

MTOIPAL HMHCK Ai ExMit of Astoria's City Ex penses for Ten Years. SOME ISTEBESTIXG riOUJtES. The dusty records of tho city's ex penses, as contained in sundry huge piles of official paper, do not afford a very inviting field to the local archael ogist, but tho aggregate totals, the re sult of considerable delving into dry' documents, may bo interesting to the readers of The Momraa Astoriax.

The British bark Kitty, is daily ex pected to arrive from Hong Kong. The English ships, the Archer and Qlenbcrcie, in ballast, are daily ex pected from Victoria. The steamer Michigan on her way from Port Towusend to Portland, with 350 tons of coal and a miscel lauous cargo, came in yesterday morn ing, and passed up the river. The steam schooner Augusta, which arrived hero Saturday evening from Tillamook, with passengers and freight, is at tho dock, foot of Wash ington street, and will remain several days. The steamer Cascades of the United States engineering department, went up tho river yesterday morning, with several barges in tow, and will bring them down in a day or two, loaded with rock for tho government jetty. Tho British ships Ncreus and Pat- terdale, which cleared from the cus tom house several days ago, and had been at anchor inside tho bar, sailed yesterday morning, tho former for Dublin and tho latter for Liverpool. Oregon's Chances in CnngrcoM. It is generally understood, says a Washington dispatch, that the river and harbor committee of the house will scale down tho sums asked in the various bills to 40 per cent of the es timates made by tho engineers and sec retary of war. This will not bo the case in all appropriations, aud some may get a larger amount, while others will be lost in the general shuffle. Under this state of affairs Oregon will got nothing near what is necessary for her improvements. Tho following teble shows the amount appropriated at the last session, tho engineers' esti mates and 40 percent of that estimate, the last column being an approximate estimate of what will probably be granted in tho general river and har bor bill: OBEQOK.

At the regular meeting of the cham ber of commerce questions recently be fore tho chamber were answered by letters from Oregon's congressional delegatien: The following from sena tor Dolph. about covers the ground. - Washington, D. O, March 7, '90. E. C. Holden, secretary of Astoria chamber of commerce. I am just in receipt of your favor of the 27th nit, enclosing a report of the special committee of the board of trade of the estimated cost of removing ob structions from certain navigable streams in the vicinity of Astoria, and also a copy of the resolution of the board, favoring the passage of senator Chandler's bill, transferring the rev enue marine service to the navy de partment Senator Chandler's bill has already been reported favorably in both houses, is upon the two calenders, and will probably pass. Major Handbury is- right in regard to the process necessary to secure ap propriations for improvement of rivers and harbors. A survey is first re quired. The river and harbor bill must, as you know, originate in the house, and I presume Mr. Hermann will make provisions for tho necessary surveys. If he does not I will do what I can in the senate. Yours truly J. N. Dolph. The committee on investigation of the recent detention of mails made verbal report and were discharged. The committee on statistics were given further time. A motion to make an effort to have the mail route between here and Seaside expedited, was car ried. Communications from a correspond ent of the New York San and others, and from a man who wants to furnish 1,000 copies of a map for $100, were read and filed. A discussion relative to the finances of the company elicited the fact that there were but 83.85 in the treasury by reason of recent necessary expenses. Amotion to have a financial report prepared by tho secretary and fur nished at the next meeting prevailed, and the meeting adjourned. 0PENIN6 OF THE- Spring Campaip! 5J OF- New Goods ! -RECEIVED AT HERMAN WISE -THE- Old ReMleClotMer ml Hatter Occident Hotel Building.
