CITY A'.'D CJUTY OFFICIAL PAPER The West Shore was not running yesterday for want of logs. A large number of salmon came down on the steamer last evening. In consequence of; a break in the machinery, the Clatsop mill hhut down Seid Back,;, wealthy Portland China man, has lnmght the propei t known a-. Frieniaii restaurant, for S'Kj.SOO. A daily mail to the Seaside is n daily necessity. (Jet up a petition, MinicbiMly: everybody will Mgu it. Some wood choppers near Tillamook recently cut down a tree that was only a foot in diameter at the butt and measured one hundred and twenty feet in length. A power of attorney from M. J. Kinney et. al. to John II. Smith was tiled for record yesterday. Tt is to correct orrors in a .similar document recorded a short time ago. Sheriff Smith had on the list at the time they lecamc delinquent, 1,800 for school taxes, and he has been for tunate enough to collect every dollar of it except bitch as were wrongfully assessed. Fire department ollicials were busy yetrday putting hose in condition for immediate .service. There are nlxmt i.i00 feet of hose that can bo lcjendeil on not to burst in case of emergency. Al. Zciler, well known to a good mauy Astorians, died near Salem, last Saturday. He was the lirst Odd Fel low initiated into the order in Oregon, and died on the 71st anniversary of the founding of the order. The Ionmouth Ih mot-rat asserts that during the recent llepublican state convention, sixty special police men were appointed at $. a day. That paper must be hard up for argu ment to print such a lie. The asser tion is utterly false. Some of the lite laddies are procur ing uniforms. The driver and engineer of Rescue, No. 2, yesterday had each a suit or the regulation blue. The coats are sack coats, double breasted, with nickel buttons, and the boys will look dashingh attractive. A gentleman calling on a family yesterday was ushered into the parlor when1 the young lady of the house w:is seated at the piano. He sisked theyoung lady to '"play one of her fa vorites." "I'm not playing favorites any more," she said. "I'll take the field against them every time." At the sheriff's .sale of real es tate for delinquent taxes, forty six lots brought SKJ7. The low est price w;is $1.50, for which quite a number were sold; many brought $2.50; one bid was up to 10, and the highest price was 12. The total amount realized wjis more than usual. Yesterday in the county clerk's office, Hans Jacobsen and lsak Hansen each signed a document bidding adieu rcsjeclivcly to the Emperor of Ger many and the King of Norway, and declaring their intention to exercise the right of suffrage in fair America as soon as the probationary years expire, aud the judge will declare them citi zens. A lively individual who tried yester day to jump on a horse car while it was going fast failed to observe a depression in the planks on the street, but his foot found it, and it brought him forward so much further than he intended to go, that his nose struck with considerable force against the side iKist of the car. The car was un- mjured. Brocky" Moron, a human being that has been no good to himself or anybody else for a long time, got a big drink of red liquor in Hill's saloon Sunday morning and went to sleep on a IkmicIi. When the bar-keeper started to wake him an hour arter. he found that the poor wretch had slipped his earthly cables and stood out to sea. Coroner Surprenant buried the body yesterday. John T. Flynn, the Grant's Pass townsite boomer now offers a man or a company "with 100,000 capital a fine chance to make half a million dollars in two years." He will sell the town site property for 10,000, ''having a limited contract upon it and not being able to hold it" Then the purchaser may invest in water works, electric lights. Arc, and boom tho town so that lie lean sell out for 000,000 in two years. Flynn will guarantee this if the purchaser desires, "or monev re funded." The lady was young and her school was a district school across the river; she was drawing a salary of G0 a month. A piano tuner was traveling in that particular district. For several days he made ineffectual attemps to engage the interest of the school mistress. The business of having the organ tnued she left entirely to lier parents, and the young exquisite felt as tboagh he was left out in the cold, so he asked her one day: "Why is it that so many school teachers are old maids?' With perfect "sang froid" she replied: "Because Ave do not care o give up a G0 salary for a 30 man." A fisherman who was desirous of catching a specimen of the stereolepis, a gigantic fish somewhat resembling a black bass and found on the Pacific coast, recently accomplished his pur pose off the Island Santa Catalina, in California. His success encouraged others, so that altogether thirty were captured, ranging in weight from 75 to 300 pounds. The stereolepis is mi rratorv, and only comes in shore dur ing the summer for the purpose of spawning. It ranges from the Farra lones down 500 miles below San Diego. Those of 300 pounds in weight are nearly six ieet in lengiu, anu are taken Kith & hand line Eastern cream cheese, best Oregon ddry and California fresh roll butter at ThopsonRoss'. NATURE ADD ART. A Haflior Which Will Cause A Great Seaport. i. i:.i it ixr: n.i jl jfA r coji.m i:xt. The Hail way Aye is to railway magnates what Hi aihtt ecVs is to the commercial world. Commenting on recent railroad news, recently published in Tun As-. ToitiAN, the enrrent number of the Railway Aye to baud says: The Union Pacific Railway company 1ms made known its intention to have a larnu amount of additional mileage in Oregon and Washington 03' filing articles jf incorporation under the name of the Oregon Railway and Extension company, which is empowered to build numerous specified lines in those states, Montana and Idaho, aggregating about 3,000 miles. One of the most important extensions is that from Portland north to Tacoma and other points on Puget sound, indi cating that tho Union Pacific intends to be a direct and severe competitor of the Northern Pacific in territory where the latter has now undisputed sway. An other important lino will be that from Portland down tho Columbia river to its mouth at Astoria where nature has provided a harbor which, aided by art, will undoubtedly call into cxistenco a great seaport city that may prove n for midable rival of Portland. Wonderful development in tho North Pacifio coast country will tako place in tho next few years and the contest between the great Pacific railroad companies named, to which may bo added the Great Northern and the Southern Pacific, promises to bo ver3' active and exciting. A telegram from Albiua yesterday evening, says that a barge load of mils will be down here at seven o'clock this morning; it will be imme diately taken over to Skipanon, the rails unloaded and laid. It w;is reported last evening from uuauthenticated sources that Hunting ton and party would be down to day. It is unlikely. The visit of the depu tation from here may alter materially his original programme, which com prised a visit here. PKI'SOXAL MENTION. Henry Monaster, a capitalist of Port land, is in the city. Mrs. ZMcCollum, of Knappa, was in the city on Sunday. L. A. Loomis aud wife came over from Seaview yesterday. Mrs. 13elle Heron is visiting her mother, Mrs. Nancy Welch. Mr. and Mrs. II. C. Thompson came back from California yesterday. Miss Maltie E. Owen and Miss Mabel Parker are taking a week's va cation at Knappa. Sam'l. W. Backus is making a lively paper and a profitable one or the San Francisco Wasp. He knows how to do it. A. M. York, President of the Inter ior Land and Immigration Company, of Denver, Colorado, arrived on the Telephone yesterday, accompanied by his wife anil son. Damon anil Pytlii.w. This fine five act drama was very creditably presented last evening at the opera house b' the K. of P. Dra matic club, and though there was a fair house, there should have been a larger audience. A. A. Cleveland as Damon and Miss Almyra Hawthorne as Hermione, his wife, were very mer itorious, while Miss Minnie Cleveland jis Calanthc was also good. George Noland acted well the part of Pytliias, James W. Hare as the tyrant Dionysius, aud F. H. Sur prenant as Procles, made a fair show ing. It is a heavy piece for amateurs, but was well costumed and all seemed to try to do well and are to be con gratulated for their efforts. There were one or two little hitches, but the audience was kindly disposed and made the best of the situation. A small profit will be realized, and when it is to be considered to what a good use it is to be applied, it is a pity that a much larger sum could not have been obtained. The music by Utziuger's orchestra was admirable Folice Court. Judge Jewett had seven cases yes terday afternoon,, one of the victims being Thomas Carson, who was fined two dollars for having been drunk aud disorderly. Ah Boy and Ah Foy, whose name3 clearly indicate their nationality, were found guilty of smoking opium, and fined 15 each. All Pin, Ah Sing, Ah Shin and Charley, four more Asiatics, were also adjudged guilty of smoking the for bidden drug, and invited to increase the city's wealth by a contribution of 25 each. They each went to jail, saying that "no ketch 'em salmon, no make 'em can. no hap got, how can give?' Fraser River Salmon. The Westminster papers report that shipments of spring salmon to eastern markets have fallen off materially in the last few days, because Newfound land and Nova Scotia are bidding for the Toronto and Montreal markets with a fish very much inferior to Fraser river spring salmon, and this has depreciated the market iu those centers so as to make it unprofitable for the Westminster dealers to ship and pay express charges. The price of salmon has been much rednced, and the fishermen are now bringing iu but few fish in order not to glnt the mar ket A Thousand Dollar Bet. Already bets are beiug made on the result of the coming state election. One prominent official last Saturday said that he had 500 to bet that Pennoyer would be re-elected. A Republican declared that he had 500 that said D. P. Thompson would be elected, and as both parties seemed so willing, the bet was made there aud then, and the thousand dollars put in the hands of a third party to hold till election day, when he turns it over to the winner." The amount of wheat and flour due at European ports from Astoria, at date, is 273,426 centals : from Tacoma 318,000 centals. Of flour, from Astoria 46,577 bbls.; from Tacoma, 0 barrels.

Away From the Planked Street. Amid the Green Fields. Sunday afternoon at two o'clock the writer stepped on board the steamer City of Astoria by invitation of Capt. J. W. Babbidge, for a short ride up the river. It was a lovely spring day and the ride was delightful. Astoria shows well from the river, but the silence which seems to enshroud the canneries that should be bustling now with life and activity, is decidedly disagreeable At the buoy depot there is a large collection of red and black iron buoys and spars which will eventually be E laced to indicate various channels, founding Tongue Point the broad river appears to advantage, looking like an immense lake stretching far away. The heavy forests which line its banks aud span the horizon on the lofty summits of the distant moun tains, indicate the vast amount of timbered wealth awaiting the advent of the woodman who shall convert it into fuel or send down the logs to be cut up into lumber for distant markets. The little settlement of Svensen's Landing is seen at the right, near which empties Bear creek from which far up tho hill is obtained the water supply for Astoria, piped some twelve miles, and furnishing an abundance of excellent water. Turning into Prairie channel, one of the channels of the Columbia which separates from tho rest of the river, and forms an island, the steamer goes up the winding stream and at 325 p. M. Knappa is reached. In a wagon, with amerry party, over rough and hilly roads, a mile and half is traversed and a stop is made at the ranch of E. C. Crow, who has resided there for forty years. The country is looking beautiful in its new spring at tire, with its velvety carpet of bright green, and fruit trees radiant with blossoms, giving promise of abundant fruit Majestic old fir trees, six feet or more in diameter, towering far up to ward the clear blue sky, are scattered all around, while the skid road we crossed showed that many of their males are being cut down to furnish sawlogs for tho mills. The night is spent at the lauding, where a well furnished room is found at the comfortable hotel kept by A. Knapp. Monday morning, clear, sunny and beautiful, furnishes a grand picture from tho upper balcony of the hotel. The stately Columbia, clear and unruffled as the surface of a pond, stretches far away up and down, while beyond it, towers the lofty range on the Washington side covered with heavy timber to where it apparently tonches the clouds. On the Oregon side the same is also true, save here and there an openiug in the forest where cozy homes are nestled as if to hide away from the busy haunts or trade, commerce and manufactures. In the rear of the hotel is the settlement of Knappa, only a few of the houses being iu sight, while from the high aud grassy hill the little church looks down con tentedly upon the quiet, peaceful scene. The place was purchased eighteen years ago of D. lL Warren, and em braces now about 2,000 acres, much of which is timber laud. There are sev eral logging camps where many men are at work, and logs are being daily brought down, and towed iu rafts to Knappton or Astoria to the mills. In the garden which is large and well filled, are cherry, pear, plum, quince aud other trees, and a great variety of llowers, which are very fra grant, especially a large bouquet brought from there, the sight aud per fume of which adds materially to the charm of the editorial office at this writing. The steamer S. Q. Ileal arrived at seven o'clock on the way up to Port land, and an hour and a half later the City of Astoria came down and at 9:45 a. ar., the little journey is at au end. The freshness and beauty of the country at this lime when nature is blossoming and blooming in her gala attire is wonderfully attractive, and no one can leave the city and enjoy such a trip without feeling infinitely better and happier for tho brief re spite, and full of thankfulness that such charming scenes can be met in this glorious section of tho grand old Union we are proud to call our native land.

County superintendent Shively yesterday made the apportionment of funds to the several school districts of the count', as follows : In addition to the regulation 50 to each of the districts (except No. G, from which there is no report), the districts get $7,226 for each child of school age resident in the district District No. 1, 605 children, 1.421.75; district No. 2, 35 children, 302.95; district No. 3, 31 children, 274.07; No. 4, 38, 324.60; No. 5, 25, 230.65; No. 7. 40, 339.05; No. 8, 61, 490.80; No. 9, 235, L748.15; No. 10, 42, SJybOU ; JSO.

Of federal officials it is said: "Few die and none resign." There are exceptions. The following was handed to col lector Taylor yesterday afternoen: Astoria, Or., April, 28th, 1S90. II011.E. A. Taylor, Collector of Cus toms, Astoria, Oregon : Dear Sir: Having been appointed inspector of customs under the late administration and at the change in the office from Mr. Hobson to yourself, beiug retained by you, I now, not withstanding the passage of senate bill 1,520, which guarantees to every hon orably discharged soldier and 'sailor, irrespective of their political opinions, a continuation in office, passed April 5th 1890, beg to reiterate the old Democratic doctrine, that the officers of the government should be of the same political party and in harmony with the views of the administration. I therefore, being a Democrat, and appreciating your kindness to me, hereby beg leave to tender my resig nation as inspector of customs, to take place on the 1st of Mny 1890. Your obedient servant, Thomas DraiiUV. Inspector of Customs. Mr. Dealey has a good record dur ing his four years aud nine month's incumbency of the positiou, He will be succeeded by Jas. Kear ney. Mr. Dealey shortly will euter active business as a partner in the firm of Goodman Sc Dealey, boot and shoe dealers, in their new building now in process of construction on Third street. REPORTED VIOLENCE. Various Rumors Alloat I.ast Evening, It is stated that last Sunday evening opposite Hunters' Point a "man was fishing for salmon when a boat with two men in it went out to him, and the men forbid him to fish and threat ened to cut his net if he persisted. He replied: "I have a right to fish, as I want them to eat, and if vou damage my net, Pll fill you full of "lead." The men went off in their boat a short dis tance and then fired their revolvers. The independent fisherman replied with his rifle, and the aggressors pulled away rapidly. It was reported last night that trouble existed at Mr. Hume's cannery at Eagle Cliff : that masked men had gone there in boats last evening, cut nets and destroyed property. It is to be hoped that these rumors are untrue Nothing is gained by violence, and all overt acts of 'that nature recoil on the hands of the originators. No one owns the river; nor tho fish in it, and no one has a right to dictate who shall or shall not use that which is common property. True liberty consists in one doing what he pleases, provided, he doesu't interfere with anylxMly's else right to do as he pleases. Gala Day at Fort Canhv. Sunday the steamers Utn. Canby and Suomi each with a load of pas sengers, went to Fort Canby to witness a base ball game between the Colum bias of Astoria and the Fort Canby ites. Ilwaco was out in full force, making nearly three hundred people on the ground. Tho visiting team was met at the wharf by Lieutenaut Van Duseu and conducted to the parade ground, and the game begun. Nine innings were played, the score at the end standing Columbias 40, Fort Canby, 6. The result of such a dis astrous defeat to the Fort Canby team is due to very poor fielding. C. B. Allen, however, made a very pretty three-base hit amidst great applause, which was their only good feature of the game F. L. Tuttle, F. A. Noyes, P. Grant and Watson Binder of the Columbias made some very pretty plays amid cheers from the crowd. Wm. Kelly acted as umpire and his decisions were uever questioned. Thanks are extended to Lieutenant Vau Dusen, Capt Al Harris and C. B. Allen for the mauy little favors and courtesies shown "the boys. In the afternoon the Ilwaco club and tho Fort Canbys Crossed bats but the usual poor luck stuck to Fort Canby, tho score standing at the end or the fourth inning, it being to lato to finish the game, 24 to 12. Next Sunday tho Columbias will play a picked nine from Fort Canby and Ilwaco on the same grounds. You can't alwavs tell a foot-racer bv his looks. At least that is what some people in Grant's Pass and Central Point are reported as saying. A great big six-foot-four fellow, hump-backed and of a general clumsy appearance, arrived at Grant's Pass a short time ago and bantered the town for a foot race. Of course the boys there put up their money on Pete Wmdom ngainst the big fellow, but he is said to have distanced Peto m two races. He next went to Central Point and "did up" the best man there. But an other race was made up and lots of money was staked on it. It seems that there was more money iu it for him for the big foot-racer to lose the race than to win it and of course he lost it as any "business" man would have done. The last seen of big "fleet foot" ho wa3 bound for Medford and one of his losing backers was after him with a cocked revolver. Electric Bitter.
