SUNDAY SEITEMBER 7. 18D0
COXCEXTltATED EFFORT.
Oxe ot the most important things
to insure succoss in any undertaking
is the concout rating of every force on
same one thing until it is accom
plished. That is Uie trouble with Astoria in
general, that there arc so many good
and desorving enterprises that call
loudh for aid. If there could only be
some definite understanding that some
particular enterprise should take pre
cedence, bo undertaken and fin
ished before the next is allowed to
make a demand upon the liberality of
citizens, there certainly would be
more accomplished.
There needs to be some controlling
organization under whose auspices
tbo most important and desirable
public enterprises should be brought
forward and properly submitted for
support.
What other organization is as
well constituted to do this as the
Chamber of Commerce of this
city, boiug composed, as it is, of
representative and business men, they
should be able to decide what enter
prise is the most necessary to the
prosperity of the city, and having de
cided this ioint, other projects should
for the tune be held back until by
unity of effort and singleness of
purpose the improvement under
taken is completed and in oper
ation. Then let another be under
taken and finished likewise. In
tiiis way the attention and re
sources which we have would not be
sj scattered and divided upon several
projects, all doomed to failure beause
of weak support To be more definite:
Lot us decide which is most im
lorlant, a sea-wall, an electric railroad,
a university, or waterworks, or some
one of various other desirable im
provements. Which ever of these is
dotormined to be of greatest present
need and importance let our Chamber
of Commerce endorse for precedence
and take measures that shall secure
the co-operation of those able to assist,
until we have the electric road or tlie
waterworks or whatever it may be in
operation.
Tryiug to assist numerous enter
prise siniunleaneously spreads public
oflbrt out so thin that it must fail of
success.
Let us all pull together.
EscELiiExcn of telegraphic reports,
completeness and reliability of local
aid marine news, intelligent and can
did editorial comments and other es
sential qualifications of a first-class
daily paper, good enough for a city of
twenty thousand inhabitants, though
published in one of little more than
one-third that number, are the char
acteristics of The AsToniAX, and the
reason why it is so popular in an in
telligent comniuuitv.
Peaxce's yearly expenditure ex
ceeds SGOO,000,000 with less than 10,
013,000 people, while our expenditure,
including pensions, is less than SloO,
000,000 with G3,000,000 people. May
be our government is too 4,economi
cally administered." Who knows?
The prospect is favorable for the
establishment of a line of steamers by
the Pacific Coast Steamship company
between Pugct Sound ports, Astoria
and Portland.

FISH ITEXIS.
A Maine porgy steamer recently
made a catch of 2,500 barrels
of fish in one day; and yet it was said
but a few seasons since that porgy
fishing on the Maine coast was plaved
out
According to a Joppa citizen, who
has been talking to a Newburyport
JYews reporter, there has been more
bait caught in the Merrimac river and
more vessels supplied, than at any
time for ten years.
A. C. Ware, of Brunswick, Ga., has
invented a fish cleaner. He says the
smallest or the largest fish can be
scaled rapidly by the use of the ma
chine. It consists of two prongs and
hooks, almost like a pair of fire tongs,
only the edges of the prongs are rough
and are slightly curved forward. One
end of the machine is fastened to a
table, while the two prongs are clap
ped around the fish, and it is shoved
through the rough-edged knives, tak
ing off every scale.
SCROFULA
Is lh.it impurity of the blood which pro
duces unsightly lumps or swellings on the
glands of the ncclc; causes painful running
sores on the arms, legs, or feet; developcs
ulcers in the eyes, cars, or nose, oltcn caus
ing Mimlness or deafness; is the origin of
pimples, cancerous growths, or the many
ot..er manifestations usually ascribed to
"humors;" and fastening upon the lungs,
causes consumption, and death. Being
the most ancient, it is the most general of
all diseases or affections, for very few
irsous are t ntirely free from it.
"7" CURED
Jiy talcing Hood's Sarsaparilla, which, by
the remaikablc cures it has accomplished,
un v.hcn other medicines hac failed,
lias prox'en itself to be a potent and pecul
iar medicine for this disease. Some of
these cures arc really wonderful. If you
sdflri from scrofula or impure blood, be
sure to try Ilood's Sarsapanlla.
" Eery spring my wife and children Jiavc
Wn troubled with scrofula, sores break
lug out on them in aious places. My
little 1 103 three 3-ears old, has been a
sevrible .sufferer. Last spring he was ono
mass of .sore.s from head to feet. I was
advised to use Hood's Sarsapanlla, and wc
2:a e all t.iken it. The 1 esult is that all have
lxea cured of the scrofula, my little boy
lciHge:ilin.ly free from sores, and all four
of m childien look blight and healths-."'
