The Astoriax extends its congratulations to our sis ter state. That infant commonwealth has borne up nobly under the severe case ol Olympia colic The enterprising Albany Herald has begun taking some dispatches, which show up fine. But, if our Al bany contemporary will pardon the suggestion, it appears to ub to have made n mistake in raising the price of the paper per week. liaise the adver tising rates, but let the price of the paper remain the same. JSciiE or ruin," seems to be the mot to of the Republican leaders in Multnomah county. Lax discipline in former years, and the overlooking or condoning of party treachery is now bearing the usual fruit Such boils inevitably come to the surface. This particular boil is of the suppur ative species and needs a little poulticing. Says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer: Pillsbury and Sawyer, the Minneapolis mill men, offer to pay 20,000 to any farmer who can ship a eargo of wheat to Liverpool and realize a profit of 1 cents a bushel over their prices. They also offer another S20,000 to any farmer who can ship a carload of wheat to any point and get within 1 or 2 cents of the Minneapolis mark et It is clear that Messrs. Pillsbury and Sawyer have a "friendly arrange ment1 with the transportation companies. Oregon is peculiarly fortunate in Iter congressional delegation, first in! their devotoduess to the interests of Uk state; second in their ability to compass their desires. No other state ' in the Union of like population gets anywhere near the substantial recog nition that Oregon does. In the sen ate our two senators are indefatigable, and in the lower house our lone con gressman wields an influence greater than that possessed by many a state that has three or four representatives in the house. Congressman Hermann has mani fested a commendable persistency in urging the claims of Oregon xipou congress in the way of appropriations for the Columbia river and the vari ous harbors. It he secures the com naencement of operations on the pro posed boat railway, it will indeed be a grand work. The completion of this would facilitate the passage of freight both ways between Astoria and the upper Columbia and Snake rivers, and prove of inestimable bene fit to the whole country in general and Astoria in particular. The Pacific coast board of commerce at its meeting in San Francisco cov ered a broad field, and prepared a set of questions of vital importance to the entire coast The replies to these, and a discussion thereon in the local organizations and by the press will serve to condense the popular opinion and crystalize it to such an extent that its expression will impress congress and the eastern people with a proper realization of the situation and en lighten them upon the truo condition of affairs on this coast, about which they are now generally so wonderfully deficient Several months ago the formation of a trust and an advance in the price of binder twines was announced, and later it was stated that organizations of farmers had determined to do with out binder twines as far as possible. Xowit is announced from Montreal tkat a firm in that city, "with several bundled thousand dollars worth of stock on hand," has been compelled to suspend because of "an utter absence of demand for binder twines." "This is a brief statement, but," says the Phil adelphia Times, "there appears to be a rather long lesson in it, and one of ex pansive application." Both sad and impressive is the dedi cation of Langford's new book "Vigi lante Days and Ways." The text me morializes the early pioneers whose en durance, fortitude, patience and intelli gent endeavor made the new state pos sible, and the illustration shows a lonely plain with a recumbent skele ton, beside the bleaching bones of which lies an old-style army revolver, rusty and useless, but eloquent in its re minder of hopeless, brave defense against long odds. In script appears the sad query, "Why doesn't he write?" a query asked how many tunes God alone knows, or in how many grief- enshrouded eastern homes. Mr, Lang ford was the first postmaster in that part of the land whose tales he tells so well, and says that he cannot begin to remember the number of letters he received, as such official, burdened with the question above given and sent by wives, mothers, sisters and sweethearts whose forebodings would have been changed into heaviest woe could they have known that the loved one's bones were whitening in the rar ified air of the distant hills. Happily in this day and date of the independ ence of these United States a replica of the picture is rendered well nigh impossible by the conditions existent. . m USEFUL JXFOKXATIOX. TUbnry Fox, M.
