ASTORIA. OBEGON:
FRIDAY
-MARCH 21, 1890
City aacl Oaatj- Oflclal Paper.
The Washington legislature ad
journs next Friday. 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.
