HOW TO ADVERTISE. -God helps those who help them selves, is an old saying, but full of truth. The towns and cities which help themselves are the ones which succeed. Nothing succeeds like suc cess, and in this age of the world, en ergy and activity are indispensable requisites for success. Astoria is in the position to-day when she needs live men to sound abroad to the world her claims and advantages. There are thousands of people in the United States to-day who know nothing of this city, and j et it informed correctly, many of them would come here. To decide how to do this is the question before our people this evening at Liberty hall. A most excellent way would be to have a number of views prepared of the city and surroundings, then pub lish an illustrated edition containing those views, with a series of articles truthfully describing the advantages and resources, an account of the ship ping and exports during the past twelve months and other points of interest. Send the edition east and have it reach every library, reading room, hotel, board of trade, chamber of commerce, passenger .steamer and place where people congregate, and distributed on trains coming westward, t several important points. Every copy would be preserved and be seen by mauy readers, thus virtu ally reaching several million people. Advertising is not an expense, it is an investment, and like other invest ments it should be judicious. Go to the meeting. Go with a determina tion to do all j on can by voice, vote and money to inform the peoplo whose eyes are lookiug westward, of the advantages of this city. Act in harmony, as one man, and the result will bring hundreds of men and thou- "sands of dollars here Ixjfore the ear shall have closed. Gekmax papers contain notices re ferring to the steady decrease of the population of Iceland, and the emi gration to Canada and the United States. Report has it that this jear tbc exodus will be portentous, amouut i to over 20,000 or nearly the quarter of the whole population of tfee island. This emigration to Amer ica has been going on during the lt teeven or eight years grow g every year. In 1872, 2.000 are re corded to have gone. The extent of tire drain may be inferred from the fact that the average annual excess of births over deaths in Iceland is G10. But, notwitlistauding this, the number of inhabitants fell in the four years from 7L,G13 to G9.221, showing a de crease of 2,389, instead of an increase of 2,500. The emigration is princi pally from the northern and east era districts, where agricultural work is carried on under great diSculties. The emigrants have set tled principally in the northwest prov inces of the dominion of Canada, and have sent home such favorable ac ccraats of their new domicile that it is statural the emigration should in crease. But other causes also con tribute to promote emigration. There has been a succession of unfavorable h&rvcste, and the competition of for eSga steam fishing boats has almost driven away the old-fashioned boats of the native seamen. Senator Casusijc eujoj-ed an ex perience last Monday that was pro bably without precedent Mr. Carlisle had become a senator before 12:15 o'clock. The house of representatives met at 12 o'clock and transacted rou tine business for half an hour, when a yea and nay vote was taken on a pend ing motion. It takes fort' minutes for a roll-call in the house. Mr. Car lkleVnanic was called with the others, aad it was not until the vote Lad been anaonnced that the senator's letter of resignation as a member of the house was read and his name dropped from the list It was about 1:15 o'clock when this was done, so that for an hour Mr. Carlisle was at the same time a senator and a representative. Next in importance to the river and harbor bill, so far as the interests of the people of this coast are concerned, is the silver question. The bill is now before the house for consideration, aad a vote upon it is to be taken to day. Though of more importance to California and Nevada than to Oregon, vet still this state will be more or less affected by the action taken. The silver mines already discovered in the Cascade range promise well for the fs&re,and Oregon may yet occupy a ssaMBent position as a silver produc--iiig state, in addition to her other resources and valuable Mt&ral advantages. Ex-Sexatok Palmer, minister to Spa, talking about his experience broad with Gen. Alger, remarked: "Ltrag abroad is like the boy with Because its owners -are Clatsop Land the stomach ache. He declared it was a good thing to have, because it felt so good when it was over." "Whereupon Gen. Alger was reminded of the comment of their fellow-townsman, a gentleman familiarly known as Mart Smith. He had come home from a European trip. The general met him in the street one day and asked him: "Well, what was the best thing you saw on your trip, Mart?" "Sandy Hook lightship," was the prompt re sposne. F. J. FowiiEB, of Bridgeport, Conn., announces that he has discovered a new property in steam. It is such a property that it can be made to in stantly double the boiler pressure without the application of more heat, ho says. It is this property that un der certain conditions has caused the mysterious boiler explosions of times past and present. Mr. Fowler has shown how this dangerous quality can bo removed from steam. Gkeat fortunes will be made in the south in the last few years of this cen tury. The tide is at its flood. In the cotton states recently, within a period of two weeks, new manufacturing en terprises were started which employ a capital of $6,000,000. It is not generally known that there is a United States law compel ling owners and masters of vessels of more than five tons and engaged in domestic trade, to be citizens of the United States. This law is not gener ally enforced. Maine has given an emphatic en dorsement of Hon. Thomas B. Reed, speaker of the house of representa tives, as he has been nominated by acclamation for reelection to congress from the first district in Maine. How to Meet the Ceasas Enumerator. Politely and pleasantly, in the first place. He comes to you on a neces sary and constitutional errand, and be is, in a humble way, a representative of the glorious government we all lore and uphold. Don't attempt to rebuke him or argue with him. He is simply carry ing out his instructions, which are defi nite and mandatory, as far as he is con cerned He has no power to change the schedule of questions committed to him by his superintendent Remember that it is not the enum erator's fault that Bobert P. Porter and Dr. John S. Billings and Colonel Carroll D. "Wright entertain ideas in which you cannot coincide concerning the value to statistical science of your intimate secrets of health and pocket book. They are monstrously mistaken, and you are right in your location of the constituiional limits of federal inquisi tion; but the enumerator has had no voice in the matter. He isn't to blame. Probably he had rather be excused than not from pressing your wife with questions as to her physical condition, or from askingyou whether the house you live in is mortgaged. His task is not an agreeable one, and, in common decency, you ought to make it as easy as possible. Answer the questions that come within the legitimate scope of govern ment inquiry as promptly, plainly, concisely and satisfactorily as your command of language permits. The right to ask the greater part of the ques tions is implied in the power to make the enumeration for which the Con stitution provides. Few people will object to imparting to the government, as a matter of favor, not of obligation, such information about parentage, place of nativity, occupation and edu cation as it may cherish a harmless ambition to acbuire. "When the enumerator comes to question 22, irWhether suffering from acute or chronic disease," ahd so forth, maintain an impressive silence and keep it up "until the end of the schedule is reached Then bid him good-by as pleasantly as you bade him good morning. But don't argue. N. x. sun. NEW TO-DAY The Indiana Paint Shop. C, M. CUTBIRTH, Prop'r. Cor. Third and Main Sts., Attiria. PAINTER AND CRAINER. ' Paper Hanging a Specialty.
