Though there are no salmon being

The old saying "wherever there is
much smoke, there is generally some
lire," was hardly verified last night,
for at midnight there was plenty of
smoke iu the streets, but the lire was
evidently far away.
Some nice castings, made by the
Scow Bay foundry for the Young's
nver pulp mill are being dressed up
by Amdt & Fercheu. The latter pro
nounce these castings equal to any
produced on the Pacific coast.
The amount of freight which leaves
this city daily ou the steamers for va
rious points is prodigious and is con
stantly increasing. Especially is this
true of the Lewis and Clarke and the
Young's river routes. Here the
steamers go out loaded to their utmost
capacity.
The steamship Oreton, due to ar
rive yesterday, was a day late in leav
ing San Francisco, aud will not arrive
here uutil to-day. The vessel was de
layed to accommodate the veteran
firemen, of Portland, who have been
celebrating in 'Frisco, aud who return
home on her.
The docks are all piled high and
wide with wood. Looks as it there
was cnoxtgh of the -.article to last the
city five years. A cold snap next win
ter would find the yards all bare, how
ever, and demonstrate the fact that
there cannot le too much wood
brought here.
What with the bustle and the roar
of the Astoria iron works, the ship
buildiug, the railroad improvements,
the street work, the rush and clatter
of the railwav train that passes every
few minutes, the scene at the foot of
Jackson street is a decidedly lively
one, these days.
Hong Wo is the name of a pagan
who was brought up in the police
court vesterdav and charged with
fracturing a city ordinance which pro
hibits Chinese and others from carry

complaint did not specify that the act
of the pagan was, iu the words of the
ordinance, "offensive to pedestrians,"
the case was thrown out of court and
the charge dismissed.
Mr. Harris, a deaf mute, is turning
screws on one of the saw carriages at
the West Shore mills. It seems
rather a strange occupation for one
or his class; but he catches the finger
signs of the sawyer with keener per
ception, ierhaps, than those who are
possessed of all their faculties, and
keeps the machino working as steadily
as anylxxly could. Harris seems
cheerful and contented with his lot,
but draws the line nt that. Ho says
if he was blind he would cut his head

The base ball ground around
Smith's iK)int covers a space of six
acres. It is smooth and level and
makes an excellent field for the game.
Col. Taylor says it is his intention to
extend it next year to eight acres in
dimensions. This will take it up on
the hill side to the east, which, with
a very little improvement, seating,
eta, will make it a veritable amphi
theater. Here the spectators will be
clear out of the way of the players
aud will liave a ierfect view jo every
part of the field. Nature made that
point expressly for a sporting ground.
Yesterday morning workmen began
tearing down the frame buildings on
the northeast corner of Third and
Main streets. With the tearing down
of these buildings one of the oldest
landmarks in Astoria will be removed.
Of late years this place was little bet
ter than a rookery and was in almost
constant danger of being collapsed by
a high wind. The old place is sur
rounded with memories dear to some
of the pioneers. Within its walls
there have been many gay gatherings,
and it was in the old building as far
back as 1859 that Mr. and Mrs. A.
Montgomery of this city were married.
It was way back in 1852 that the
buildings were erected. At that time
the lot on which the Astomax build
ing now stands, was on the water
front, and all around was water, the
foundation of the building being
partly made by filling in. The build
ing was for years used as a sawmill
and the space now occupied by houses,
jewelry store and the Flavel brick
block was filled with a boom of logs.
Extending northeasterly from the
mill was a long, frail wharf, reaching
the channel where Flavel's wharf now
is, and it was by means of this that
vessels were loaded.
There were few residences iu As
toria at that time and very few people.
The arrival of a vessel was a great
event It made no difference where
she came from, everybody turned out
to see her.
But to return to the old mill, which
for many years past has been used as
a bakery. If the workmen, iu tearing
down the buildings, will go deep
enongh, thoy will find tons aud tons
of sawdust mixed in with a lot of ma
chinery and an old boiler, which was
imported from San Francisco, but
never used. The machinery was re
jected, it being found faulty, and the
owners never removing it, it found its
way to the sawdust pile and has been
buried for nearly half a century. The
mill was run for several years under
the name of the Astoria Steam Milling
Co., and between thirty and forty men
wero employed in it Then Simpson
& Jackson, of San Francisco, pur
chased it, the concern afterwards be
ing owned by W. W. Parker, of this
city.
Some years later the mill was moved
to the corner of what is nowThird and
West Nintk Hero it was enlarged by
the addition of machinery from a little
mill on Young's bay in what is now
Case's Astoria. For years the mills
turned out millions on millions of feet
of lumber, but about seven years ago
it succumbed to the great fire and
went up in smoke.
With the removal of the mill from
Third and Main street the bakery was
opened, aud up to the first of this
week has continued to turn out pies,
cakes and bread.
The building which is to tako the
place of the rookery is to be a two
story frame structure.
A Chat "With a
Committeeman A Clerk
Needed.
It is expected that a meeting of the
water committee will be held this
evening or to-morrow evening.
It will be for the purpose of arrang
ing some definite plan of action.
Most of the committee are in favor of
receiving estimates as to what the
probable works will be, but as the
committee has no funds for the pur
pose, it is not exactly clear how these
can be furnished. It is also desirous
of knowing, aproxmiately at last, how
many subscribers the present water
company is supplying with the idea of
forming an estimate of the revenue that
would be derived from private con
sumption. In appointing the commit
tee, which has a most important work
to perform, the council made no pro
vision for expenses, and just how the
committee can do the work expected
of them without money for expenses
the members do not see.
Speaking of the matter yesterday
one of the committee said:
"This is an important matter; the
work canDot be done in a week
or a day, and done properly.
We must have facts and fig
ures. It will be necessary also"
to have a secretary or clerk who can
devote all of his time to the business
of the committee, for if it is properly
done there will be a great deal of cor
respondence to be attended to. We
will want reports from cities operating
their own water works, and must in
vite bids for bonds, together with esti
mates from engineers, etc."

THE ELECTRIC ROAD.
To Hake the Route More Direct, a Cable
Line Will Also be Used.
This morning surveyors will start on
Main street and run the proposed
electric railway route as far as Hust
ler's annex. It is calculated to put in
a cable line to the top of the hill
south of the city, and from that point
operate two branch lines by electricity.
"While the former survey by Arch,
Olney and Eleventh streets," said Mr.
Sharpstein last evening, "gave a prac
tical route, yet it is a round about
road and not entirely free from danger.
We are here to stay and therefore
have concluded if the people treat us
fairly, as we expect them to do, to put
in a line, that for speed and safety,
will equal the best The survey will
be finished in a couple of days, when
active work will be pushed on the
subsidy, with the hope of being able
to go before the counoil Tuesday next
and in less than a week-thereaf ter be
at work."
Passengers to Portland.
The lighthouse tender Manzanitu,
which left here a few days ago for
Cape Blanco, returned to port j'ester
day morning, bringing Audrow Jetson,
the carpenter of the vessel, for medical
treatment The man met with a pain
ful accident while the vessel was off Til
lamook, and had a narrow escape from
being killed. As it was, he sustained
a compound fracture of tho left leg
above tho knee. Tho mishap was due
to tho rolling of the vessel while a
buoy was being put over the side. In
somo manner the stone sinker attached
to tho buoy fouled, and Jetson went
over the side to clear it. The ship
took a roll and tho man was crushed
between the stone and the side of the
vessel. The leg was badly mangled
and the bones crushed. Dr. Baker
attended the patient and pronounces
the injury a very serious one.
RUN DOWX BY A DARK.
The Steam Schooner "Gen. II. Chance"
Slightly Damaged.
The steam fishing schooner Qeorne
H. Chance arrived yesterday after
noon from Flatter' banks, and as she
came up to an anchorage she pre
sented a sorry appearance. Tho ves
sel had been in collision. Her port
bow was slightly stove in, aud a good
section of the rigging on that side of
tho vessel was carried away.
Capt P. H. Crim, master of the
Chance, reported that on the evening
of September 3rd, whiloho was an
chored ten miles we3t of Cape Flat
tory, a large iron bark, Loaded south
and loaded with lumber, bore down
on him, and did the damage com
plained of. The Chances anchor
lights, Captain Crim says, wero out
and the weather was clear. How the
vessel failed to see him the captain
could not imagine. The name of tho
vessel, as near as Captain Crim could
ascertain, is the Narcotta, and she is
bound for Valparaiso. A statement
concerning the facts in the case was
prepared by Captain unm, ana a
olaim will be put in against the own
ers of tho bark.
The damage amounts to about 600.
Tho catch of the Chance this trip
was a little under the average. She
brought seventeen tons of halibut and
one and one-half tons of codfish.

Spokake FatjI, Sept 8, 1890.
Editor Asterian:
The skies that Hush in crimson
splendor above this gravelly plain are
no brighter than those that bend over
the woods and waters round about As
toria, yet in their changing light have
a different appearance.
The only thing that here seems
wholly familiar are tiie great columns
and masses of reddish brown basalt,
the country reck of this region, which
is identical in appearance to tho basalt
so plentifully sown along the Columbia
river and the ocean coast
The line of the Northern Pacific
road, from Tncoma to Yakima, runs
through a 6ue country, but from Ya
kima to Pasco tho character of the
surroundings is chiefly desert Tho
train makes the ninety mile run be
tween Yakima and Pasco in three
hours, and .everyone is glad when the
latter place Is reached. Here the
Columbia river is a wide, shallow,
muddy, sluggish stream, very unlike
the Columbia river between Vancouver
and Astoria.
When the train that I was on
reached Pasco the wind was blowing
the dust of the desert in so dense a
cloud that it was not practicable to
keep an eye on Pasco if ono expected
to have further use for tho aforesaid
eye. People who have seen the site
when the wind wasn't blowing sav
that two railroads cross there and that
there is a telegraph station in that
vicinity.
The desolation wrought in Spokane
Falls by the fire which almost swept
tho city out of existence in August,
1889, is nearly obi iterated. The burnt
district is fast being covered by stately
structures, many of which would
grace the business streets of any city.
Granite, sandstone and "brick build
ings, six stories in height, and of or
nato architecture aro rising on every
side from massive 'foundations, the
sudden trausition being noticeable
where one comes on a lofty building,
costing hundreds of thousands of dol
lars, flanked on one side by a nest of
wretched wooden shanties, and on the
other by a row of tottering tents.
Looking nt three or four elegant
and profitable buildings on the prin
cipal streot tins morning, I couldn't
help thinking of tho miserable collec
tion of sheds opposito tho postofiice in
Astoria, and wondering how lng such
a splendid business site as that from
Liberty Hall, to Harris k "Wright's sa
loon would slay encumbered by such
Chinese rookeries on one of the prin
cipal business streets in Spokane
Falls.
Another thing I couldn't help no
ticing was an advertisement in the
lieciew yesterday, where a local cap
italist agrees that if any one owns a
lot he will build a house, such as is
desired, for business or resideucc, and
wait for hi3 money for five years.
That is, to encourage the investment
of money in urban nndsuburban prop
erty, this man will pay for a houso to
be erected wherever desired in Spo
kano Falls or vicinity, and advance the
money for its building, tho solo idea
being to induce people to buy prop
erty, even though they haven't enough
left to build on the property, after
purchase, tho kind of a house they
want
Everything is to be judged by re
sults, and the fact that that scheme
works satisfactorily, and to Hie mutual
advantage of all concerned, is one of
the best arguments for ibrobservance
and continuance.
But I don't remember ever seeing
any such advertisement in The As
toria:. Do you?
It pays in Spokane Falls.
This place is destined to bo a great
city. It has magnificent water power,
fine agricultural country, is near valu
able mines, and has no probable com
petitor between Minneapolis and Port
land. JU ha3 been built upby tho-
I vim and energy of busy people under
the laws ol a young commonwealth
that unlike Oregon, doesn't offer a
premium ou fraud by silly assessment
laws and cast-iron mortgage tax.
With the one exception of Astoria, I
know of no place that ha3 so many
advantages, or that has so glorious a
possibility of growth and municipal
prosperity.
The only difference is that with us
in Astoria wo don't pull together; we
are too jealous and envious of each
other's possible success. We havo
more advantages than Spokane Falls,
but if people hero sat up nights wor
rying because their business .acquaint
ances wero making a little money they
would not get on, as a community,
quite so fast as by pulling together
and sliowing a united zeal for the wel
fare of the city.
This place is a good illustration of
what determined effort will do. Spo
kaneites have been discriminated
against aud hampered by the N. P. Jv
B. as much as possible, Cheney being
tho railroad town and Spokane Falls
to be punished for its presnmptnous
ness in trying to amount to some
thincr. but no amount of coddlin"
could boom Cheney, and no amount
of snubbing could keep back hpokano
Falls." Tho peoplo worked tegether:
they had their little privato.quarrels
and animosities just as all places have,
but when a measure was up for dis
cussion and immediate action was
necessary, Smith didn't hang back
waiting to see what Brown was going
to do, or talk all day telling all and
sundry what Jones" ought to do.
Smith did all ho himself could do, and
so did everybody else, and in this way
was success made certain.
Where Spokane Falls makes thou
sands Astoria cau make millions.
There is no other place 'm this entire
Northwest that has the advantages and
possibilities possessed by Astoria, but
ilaces of lesser natural worth are
eading in tho race.
From here! go to Helena, Montana,
and tho Yellowstouo Park, of which,
with other places, I hope to catch a
casual glimpse before my return.

Amid blowing of whistles aud the I
dipping of flags, the steamer T. J. ,
Potter steamed down tho river and '
out to sea yesterday morning, en route '
to Puget sound, where she will here
after run. Captain C. H. Lewis of
tho steam schooner Michirjan, was on
board as navigating officer, while
Archie Pease wa3 in command. It '
was arranged to nave tne union
Pacific tug boat Wallowa act as ten
der to the Potter and she did, but for
a short time only, and is now making
a stern chase for the vessel.
It was about 9 o'clock when the
vessels cast off their lines and headed
down the river. Tlie Potters throttle (
was pulled wide open and she went
through the water at railroad speed.
The Wallowa tried to keep up, but it
was futile, and the last seen of the ves
sels tho Potter was outside headed up
the coast, going through a smooth sea
at a lively rate, while her tender was
still in the river. The Potter will
reach Seattle some time this after
noon, and the Wallowa goes only to
Cape Flattery and will then return.
