CITY AND CDO.'JTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
Fishing boats were quite numerous
on the rirer yesterday.
Monday there were 22 deeds filed
for record, and yesterday, there was
the same uumler, lacking 21.
It is rciorted that J. B. Sale has
purchased the steamer Elertrh; and
that he will le taken to Shoalwatcr
la.
One or two boat hoaxes, with row
and sail boats to let, would undoubt
edly do a jjood business. Who will
art one?
Tliere is to be a glove contest for
points, in the Athletic club rooms
next Wednesday evening, aud it
prorniMs to be largely attended.
Last evening, at the Parker hoifee, a
large number of people were finely en
tertained in listening to inusie on a
Scotch bagpipe, played by the bar
tender. Work has commenced on the erec
tion or the new wharf at North Cove
oa Shoalwatcr bay. It will be over
LKM feet long, and reach out to a
dippih of nine feet at low water.
The new track of the street railway
extension is now laid on Second street,
between Olney and Genevieve, and
the center of the street is torn up for
a block further west, to Cass street
The numerous piles of wood scattered
all along the streets, and left there
weeks at a time, make this look like a
Iwckwoods town iustead of a city.
Don't ue the streets for a xermanent
wood vnrd.
Hereafter when the anniversary of
American independence is celebrated,
Albert Nilson can say umy country,"
for yesterday he severed connection
with the long of Sweden, and took out
preliminary papers of citizenship.
The city building will not be raised
at present, not until the next rainy
season, as it would interfere with the
use of the engine house and engine,
and that is not deemed advisable in
dry weather, in case a fire should
break out.

The colored singer, Miss Flora Bat
son, who appears here on Friday and
Saturday eveniugs, is spoken of in the
highest terms by the prass. Yester
day's Oregonian has a highly com
mendable notice, and calls her the
qneen of song."
The railroad drawbridge across
Skipanon creek at Warrenton is out of
order and cannot be opened for the
passage of boats. Yesterday it was
closed with great difficulty, and must
be considerably repaired before it can
again be opened.
Yesterday, in Justice May's court,
two Chinamen, Ah Sing and Ah Gee,
were arraigned, who had been arrested
by constable "Welch for smoking
opium. They were remanded to the
county jail, and. will bo examined at 3
o'clock this af temoon.
Iu the city council last evening, Mr.
Welch made an excellent suggestion,
if it can be earned out, and that is to
remove Xo. One's engine house to up
per town and build a new house for
Xo. One on the city lot, then furnish
a good pair of horses for it.
People should remember that a re
fusal to answer the questions pro
pounded by one of the census enumer
ators is a misdemeanor, and by so
doing they are liable to arrest and fine.
Answer the questions promptly and
the work will soon be completed.
Horseback riding is growing in favor,
and would le more popular if there
were more saddle horses to be ob
tained. Last evening F. H. Surpren
ant and wife, W. A. Sherman and sis
ter. Miss Jessie Jewett and several
others were out riding. It is good ex
ercise for all.

TO MEET WEEKLY HEREAFTER.
The city fathers assembled last even
ing, and were called to order by Mayor
Crosby at 7:45 r. ir., Elbon, Fox,
Welch and Wickmnn being present,
and Bergman arriving soon after.
The minutes of the last meeting
were read and approved.
Alex. Grant petitioned for a liquor
license, which was granted.
The ordinance passed at the last
meeting, requiring property owners to
connect their premises with street
sewers, was returned by the mayor un
signed, because defective in section
seven, by the omission of the word
"persons."
The veto was sustained.
The report of street superintendent
as to amount of work done on the
btreels was read and placed on file.

ington and others for grade of Court
street was read and filed.

jected, and the assessment for Cedar
street grade be collected. Report was
received and filed.
The city attorney reported on peti
tion of John Devlin and William
Bock in reference to correcting the
line of West Water street, referred to
him from last meeting, recommending
that an ordinance be passed to
correct the line. The report was re

attorney in reference to the bond mat
ter was presented, stating that he had
notified N. W. Harris & Co. of Chicago
that the city had accepted their prop
osition to purchase 23,000 of six per
cent twenty-year bonds at a premium
of x2 per cent, and that the bonds
were "being printed at the office of The
Astokian.
At the conclusion of the reading of
the report mayor Crosby suggested
that the council should do the best
they could to advance the city's inter
est, and that another party had offered
to take the bonds, and pay 3 per cent,
premium, which would make a pre
mium of SG00, or 345 more than the
other offer, and that a while ago he
had told Mr. Welch of this offer.
Mr. Welch stated that the mayor
had spoken to him on the street con
cerning this new offer, but that it was
after the former had been accepted by
the council, and had said that if the
city would pay his (the mayor's) ex
penses he would go east and place
them at a still better figure for the city.
His honor then intimated that the
council or committee had not done
their duty for they had asked but one
party, to which Mr. Welch replied
with spirit, denying the statement and
claiming that the mayor was mis
representing the'' case. Considerable
discussion was had, the records were
consulted, and finally the report of tho
city attorney was adopted.
The committee on wharves and
water frontage reported in reference
to the ordinance referred to them at
last meeting, granting to Astoria Iron
Works permission to erect a gridiron
wharf at foot of Jackson street and

adopted.

ing the time of the city assessor for
completing the roll, to June 23d.
Ordinances for improvement of
Polk, Jackson and Madison streets
were read first and second times.
The ordinance, fixing boundaries of
Water street from the plane line to
West Ninth street, was referred to the
committee on streets and public ways.
A now ordinance was presented to
take the place of the one in reference
to sewers which had been voted by
the mayor and was read twice.
The ordinance providing for the
issuance of $23,000 in bonds and sale
of the same to N. W. Harris & Co. of
Chicago was introduced and road
twice, and further action deferred
until next meeting, some members
fearing that if not adopted the city
will be liable to the above firm for
damages for violation of contract
The ordinance allowing the Astoria
Iron works to erect a gridiron wharf
at the foot of Jackson street, and main
tain the same for twenty years, was
passed, Mr. Fox refraining from vot
ing, because an interested part'.
The following bills against the city

rants on the proper funds: West Shore

and one of $2.50, were laid over.
Welch introduced a resolution pro
viding that the council meet every
Tuesday evening, and it was unani
mously adopted.
Wrelch introduced a resolution that
the city attorney institute suits
against the bondsmen of who have
failed to pay their assessment or im
prove Arch street, which was adopted.
A resolution introduced by Welch
at the request of Parker that proper
notice be given of the intention to.
grade Lafayette street was adopted.
Welch stated that the committee on
ways and means had. never yet re
ported concerning the official reports
of last year, which had been referred
to them, and he desired to see the
work done.
The matter of establishing on elec
tric light between the electric light
works and western boundary of the
city, was brought up by Welch, and
he moved it be so ordered,
as election was now over and
it had been opposed before. It was
favored by Fox, also by Bergman,
who stated that he had investigated
the matter and would withdraw his
objection. It was then ordered by an
unanimous vote. The occupation of
the foot of West Seventh, Eighth and
Ninth streets also Genevieve and
other streets by private individuals,
was brought up by Welch, and on his
motion referred to the city attorney to
report at next meeting.

Wrecking Notes From the Port Towa

Puget sound wreckers intend
shortly to commence work upon the
hull of the old steamer Idaho, whioh
came to grief near Race rocks, last
year, and now lies in Port Townsend
bay. It is supposed that her boilers
and something else it is not known
what are till clinging to her, as a
clumsy weight attached to her bottom
prevents her floating in less than ten
fathoms of water.
The steam wrecker Whitleaw now
plies regularly between Race rocks
and tho outer wharf, Victoria, where
a heterogeneous mass of chains and
old anchors, broken masts and frag
ments of deck planking lies piled.
The grappling irons are tearing the
the old Barnard Castle to pieces,
and whatever comes up in their claws.
is at once landed. It is expected that
the wreckers will get to work upon
the more important part of the old
wreck before the end of the week.

The Cape Ann Breeze, of Glouces
ter, Mass., describes a singular inven
tion and says the schooner Pioneer
will carry to Georges -with
her the coming trip something not
before found on a fishing vessel from
this port Its shape is something
similar to a steam boiler. It is about
five feet long. The frame is of iron
and is covered with a net-work of very
strong wire. In one end is a door,
through which it will be filled with
chopped bait It will then be fastened
io the vessel's cable, about 25 fathoms
from the anchor by a pulley. The
motion of the sea will wash bits of the
bait out &Q1 thus fish will be tolled
around die vessel. The machine was
invented by Mr. Silvine Monlsong, of
this city, who has applied for
.a patent on it, ana wno win go
on the vessel to superintend the
working of it He'is perfectly satis
fied that it will do all that is claimed
for it. The;result will be awaited for
with interest'-thy-all engaged in the
fisheries, Tjothiiabermen and owners.
Wkat Makes a City Prosperou?
An exchange indulges iu some good
observations as to the methods that
make a town or city prosperous or re
tards themTi It concludes that the one
thing tbatrmakes 'orcityprosperons is
the stability;-of its- business men.
Where each attempts to forward the
interests of the other he adds to his in
come as TrelL In towns where each
strives to knock the other down there
will be but few prosperous men. So
it is in every community. Where
neighbor is at war with neighbor
there will be poor straw stacks at both
places, but where all are at peace and
good will reigns there is happiness
and prosperity. Meanness never pays.
But we find a great many persons who
go to other towns to buy their goods
and pay more for them than they could
buy the samo of their home mer
chants. Some buy on credit of one
merchant and when they get a little
mohey will Bpend it with another mer-

will tell every stranger that comes to
town that the business men are rascals
and robbers. Some will construe
every effort of enterprise as a scheme
and boodle game, in fact mere is
nothing calculated to increase the
interest of a town or county but
has its opposition. Merchants have
been known to carry customers
when they would otherwise have
Buffered, that allow such debts, to go
unpaid' iad then spend the .money
witp others and curse their creditors.
It has been known for such persons to
carry two or three hundred in their
pooketior a whole year and then go
to the bank and ask them to loan them
twenty-five dollars for a few days to
finish out a payment and allow, the
banker to carry it for six months and
then grumble at ten per cent Such
things should not be if we desire to
see a flourishing town and induce
people to locate here. We must be a
unit and work and labor for each
other's good.
If a stranger inquires of you con
cerning the condition of any future
prospects of your town, speak a good
word for every department that de
serves it If a merchant favors you
when you are in need, remember him
when you have the money. Those of
you who have money to spend with your
home merchants, if they don't have
what you want have them send and
gettit for you. They can get it cheaper
than you can. If farmers have pro
duce to sell they should bring it to the
homo market Xet business men
work together and do each other all
the .good they can. If you have spare
money, put it in the bank until you
want it and if yon want a favor go to
the banker for it In union there is
strength, but a house divided against
itself cannot stand.

They Are Coming.
They are coniiuj? from the deserts
of the dim and dusty er.3t, vhere to
raiso a stunted turnip gives the pros
pect of a feast, -where the farms arc
made o gravel and they plow with
dynamite, where the festive chattel
mortgage sings its dirges day and
night; they are coming in their wag
ons, they are coming on the train,
they are coning from the regions
whero they struggled long in vain;
they are coming fron the cabin, they
are coming on to Oregon,where there's
plenty for them all. They are coming
from the southland, they are coming
from the north; from the valleys
and the monntains they in
droves are coming forth; they are
coming with their wives, they are com
ing with their hammers, with their
needles and their knives; with their
harrows and their planters, and their
pencils and their guns, they are com
ing with their fathers and their moth
ers and their sons. They are coming,
stout and slender, they are coming
short and tall, they are coming on
to Oregon where there is plenty for
them all, whero you needn't dig pota
toes with the saber or a dirk, where,
when the rain is badly needed, then
tho rain gets in its work; where the
rivers moan and murmur on their
journey to the sea, where the breezes
tackle corn-stalks as big as fences on
the lea. "Where the savage used to
wander, yearning for a crop of hair,
now the farmer takes his porker to the
nearest county fair; and tho corn is
gaily growing where the greasy wig
wam stood; where he burned the wail
ing captive now the poultry search for
food; and the people who are coming
to this pleasantest of all climes, show
a happy knack of keeping up with the
times; they will find a country beam
ing from the spring time to tho fall,
when they land in pleasant Oregon,
where there's plenty for them all.
Sam Jone.s' ELstitnato of Infidel;.
I'd rather be alow-down chain-gang
negro than one of your little infidels.
You won't be in hell two minutes be
fore you'll be hopping around in the
fire and yelling: ""What a mistako I
madeF' I have some respect for Bob
IngersolL because he can get 200 a
night for his lecturing. But some of
these little fellows are infidels for
nothing, pay S2 to hear Ingersoll and
board themselves. If you
don't like what Im saying, just get
up on your hind leg3 and slide out.
