faction.
The board of directors of the Astoria
and South Coast railway company,
had a meeting last evening at which
was read a letter received yesterday
morning from C. P. Huntington, presi
dent of the Southern Pacific company,
written from the hotel del Monte,
Monterey. CaU in which he expressed
great and evident satisfaction at the
promptitude with which the subsidy of
$200,000 had been subscribed, jis be
tokening Astoria's lively interest in
the ma tterot transcontinental railroad
connection.
Pursuant to his request the contract
of transfer was made up to be sent
him forthwith. The tenor of his letter
indicated that obstacles suggested as
possible to arise will be provided
against by him, and that no complica
tions or previous propositions of any
nature will be suffered to stand in the
way.
It is probable that a committee
from the board will shortly go to San
Francisco to have a further and final
conference with Mr. Huntington.

The opening gun of the campaign
was fired last evening, the Democracy
commencing the contest Governor
Sylvester Pennoyer, state treasurer
George W. Webb, and John Gibson,
of Albina, came down last evening on
the '. ''. Rial, and were met at the
'd.c:c by C. .7. Treuchard, Sheriff
j Smith, Dr. Estes, Alex Campbell and
other, who escorted the guests to the
hotel.
Utzinger's fine band paraded the
principal streets, discoursing excellent
music, starting at 7:30 r. m. and arriv
ing at the opera house about eight
o'clock, which was soon well filled,
there being quite a number of ladies,
and numerous Kepublicans.
In the boxes were P. W. Weeks and
wife, Mrs. Estes, Mrs. P. Grant, Post
master Bell and wife, Mrs. L Bergman,
Mrs. IL Chrislensou, Mrs. G. W.
Webb, George Nolaud and wife, lev.
S. M. Campbeli and wife, Mrs. N.
Bergman, Mrs. J. E. liiggins, George
llibbertandU. W. .Dunbar.
On the platform were the governor,
slate tre:isurer, John Gibson, C. J.
Trenchard, John H. Smith, Dr. O. B.
Estes, J. E. Higgius, Isaac Bergman,
John Kopp, John Caswell and Col.
Frank Chenault
The members of the band occupied
orchestral chairs, and opened the ex
ercises at 8:15 r. M., by playjug
"America,'' in fine style.
John IL Smith advanced lo the
front of the stage and introduced the
man who holds the money of the
stale and who is a candidate for re
election, Hon. George W. Webb, stale
treasurer.
Mr. Webb in this, his first visit lo
Ahtoria, was glad so warm a reception
has been tendered to the governor ot
whom he claimed lo be the body
guard. Have no speech to make, the
governor will do that Never heard
of a stale treasurer who was faithful
to his duly, who was anything of a
speech-maker. Glad to see so many
ladies in the audience, it shows they
are interested in the campaign, and
hope they will lend their efforts in
helping Astoria on the second day of
June, roll up a big majority for Gover
nor Pennoyer.
He said, "I desire lo call your at
tention to a few facts in connection
with the present administration and
its conduct of "the financial affairs.
When I went in ollice, the stale was
$100,001) in debt I soon ascertained
that the United States owed us $12,
000; this was collected and with the
proceeds from the sale of swamp lands
the entire debt has been wiped out,
until now we do not owe a dollar.
'The common school fund has leen
well managed under a Democratic
board. In January, 18S7, we
had in the school fund $780,
000 in notes and mortga
ges which I received from my prede
cessor. January 1st of this year, we.
held $1,000,000 in notes and mortgages,
all of which are gilt edged securities,
and our school fund is in fine shape.
From the interest on these in July,
18S7, 1 paid one dollar on each child
entitled to school money, and this
year on 87,000 children they will each
draw 1.53, showing a maiked in
cre:isc You will soon be called upon
to choose between Philip Metschan
and vour humble servant He is a
good man but I am not here to talk j
for him, but for myself, and as I have
faithfully performed the duties, I
again ask vour votes, for which I will
be thankfiil."
The band then rendered " Hail Co
lumbia" in stirringstrains, appreciated
bv all.
"At 8:30 i m. County Clerk C. J.
Trenchard stepped forward and said
4,I have been honored with the duty of
presenting to you one who is well
known to many. He has been gover
nor of this state for some time, and
we propose to mako him governor for
some time more. You will now listen
to Governor Pennoyer.'
The governor said l'L am glad to see
so many present, especially so
mauv ladies, and desire to return my
thanks for the very handsome major
ity you rolled up for me four years
ago." In visiting Astoria now, I am
invigorated by the glorious breezes
wafted in from the ocean, and by the
cordial greeting you have given me."
He then gave a sketch of his admin
istration during the three and a half
years he has ocenpied the guberna
torial chair, claiming that the expenses
have been much less than before.
Considerable time was given to a
review of the portage railroad and the
boat railway, to overcome the obstruc
tions in the Columbia river between
The Dalles and Celilo, claiming
that the former could be constructed
in a year, and by voting the Demo
cratic ticket that plan would be en
dorsed, but if you vote the Republican
ticket you favor the boat railway,
which will cost far more, and take
thirty-five years to complete.
The locks and canals at the Wil
lamette Falls, Oregon City, were next
discussed, and statement made that
the company has never paid a cent
into the school fund as ten per cent
of their profits as provided by law
when they were constructed. They
revert to" the state in 1892, and the
state should take them, or compel
the company to reduce the rates of
toll. D. P.'Thompson, Mr. Eastham
and Mr. Morey are all owners of
stock in the lock company and are
all candidates for office on the
Republcan ticket, so that he claimed
they should not be elected, especially
at tins time when the question of
disposing of the locks will come up
for action.
D. P. Thompson's official record
as receiver ot the Holladay estate and
as mayor of Portland was severely
criticised, especially while holding the
latter office he had virtually encroached
upon the river line and taken in a
strip 40 x 200 feet, worth S100,000,
without any payment therefor, and
which the sneaker designated as
Thompson's "real estate bay window."
The lauor question was urouguc up,
and an effort made to show that his
position thereon had been right, while
his competitor's record in that direc
tion was the reverse.
He also charged his opponent with
securing the nomination by illegal and
dishonest means in the expenditure of
money, and that the same method of
buying the election was also being
resorted to by Mr. Thompson.
The inevitable tariff question
"bobbed up serenely" and the governor
illustrated tariff for revenue and for
protection, bringing in the stories of
James Otis in 17G1, and the flag of
"Free trade and sailors' rights," as
floatincr at the masthead of Paul Jones'
ship in 1812. The question of taxes
petitor, the story of the battle otTrz.
algar was given, where Lord Nelson ;
displayed the banner, "England expects
every man to do his duty."
The governor said. "Now at this
time in this matter of the equalization j
of taxes, Oregon expects every man ,
ofvou to do his duty. Yon are to!
decide the question at the polls, and
I trust to God your decision will be a
just one. I thank you," and the ad
dress was ended, ho having spoken one
hour and ten minutes.
The band played the glorious old
piece "Bed, White and Blue," after
which C. J. Trenchard called for
"three cheers for Governor Pennoyer,
and the Democratic ticket," and after
they were given, the audience dispersed.

Major T. J. Blakeucy yesterday in
spected the surf boat recently received
here for the new life saving station at
Fort Stevens. It was badly battered
en route, and an attempt made to re
pair it, but, putty and while lead is a
poor substitute for planks in a boat
intended for use of shipwrecked mari
ners in stormy se.is, and the major de
clined to accept it unless placed in
proper trim.
Everything is in readiness for duty
at the new station except the boat and
crew, which deficiency will be supplied
:ts soon as possible. Major Ulakeney
has given orders for the construction
of a signal tower, and has also had
constructed a telephone line, which,
with the telegraph, will place the sta
tion in instant communication with
this city.
An Olyiupia Complaint.
'Some of the largest property
holders in Olympia," said a prominent
real estate man tills morning, "are the
very ones who discourage investments
by outsiders. Just us soon as they
hear of an intending purchaser, they
stick on two or three thousand dollars
more than the price asked, without
regard to its real value. It was only
iesterday that I had a piece of
nronertv for sale, the real value ot
which was 20,000. My man was
willing to give $25,000, but as soon as
I notified the owner, he calmly stuck
on another S5,000. My man left the
city, and I heard this morning that
he'had put his S25.000 into Aberdeen
property. Such men as these would
retard the growth of any city."

sional delegation have agreed upon
the name of Jas. W. Hare to be re
commended to President Harrison for
postmaster of this city. He received
the unanimous endorsement of the
delegates to the recent Republican
county convention, and will, doubt

promptly conflrmed by the senate.
Next in order will be his commission

No matter what trade or
profession you choose you
will easily detect the men of
original ideas; the men who
push themselves and the town
the' live :n ahead; men who
are a credit to their profession
and the community the live
in: hut you are also sure to find
the imitators, those who are
at the rear end of the proces
sion, men who never have an
original, bright thought or do
an original, bright act. If let
alone they will exist on what
liberal, unsuspecting people
permit themselves to be rob
bed of; but no sooner does
the original, enterprising man
make a move, and the imitat
ing tail-endcr tries to benefit
by hts superior's genius.
