MU' " !-JT - ai SS&c ijattj foran. ASTOEIA. OREGON: THURSDAY.... ..-SEPTEMBER 18. 1800 Suocessfdii starting of the electric motor and cable lino tvould be a grand thing forAjstoria to accomplish. It can readily be done, and it cer tainly should not be allowed to fail for -rant of a little more encouragement. The editor of the Richmond, (HI.) Record, besides doing the editorial work upon three or four weekly sheets, advertises to do "literary work of every description, poems written to suit funeral or wedding or festive oc casions, addresses and lectures written to order, manuscripts reviFed and prepared for publication," etc. Energy and activity, combined with liberal ideas, will soon place Astoria in the front rank, so far as growth and progress are concerned. We have the natural advantages, but those alone are not enough to make a lively city. There must be active co operation on the part of merchants and business men. Arouse from jour lethargic slumber, and make up jour minds that the town must grow and it will. Act more and talk less, and success will crown your efforts. The State fair is in progress at Salem, and hat is Astoria doiug in reference to it? Are we represented thoro? If not, why not? The great exosition will open at Portland on Thursday, September 25th, and what part will Astoria take? These aie questions worthy of an answer. The man who lives within the narrow confines of his own town or city, and pays but little heed to what is transpiring around him in the great world, and whose vision is bounded by the hills which surround bim, will amount to but little in the world's history. The same is true of a town or city. Astoria should be prom inently represented at the State fair and the Portland exposition, and if she is not, some one is to blame. "Who is it? Pebhats it would be well for the Astoria Gas company to adopt the plan which the gas companies at Bir mingham, England, are about to try. That is the "nickel-in-the-slot" plan for consumers in tenement houses. This is adopted to force payment in advance, it being pretty hard work to collect bills in tenement houses after the gas is consumed, and it is desira able that the tenement houses should bum all the gas they can pay for. So they will set up machines in these houses that upon the dropping of a penny in the slot will wind off just twenty-five feet of gas and stop. Not another inch until another penny is dropped in the slot "What a saving in gas meters and a saving in collecting gas bills can be effected by this method. The lottery craze is assuming mammoth proportions, aud oven from Astoria everj' month a large amount ot money is sent to Louisiana by par ties who are hoping they will draw something in prizes. On this subject are some "words from the Oroville Register which aro equally applicable here and arc as follews: The amount of money sent out of this town and this is only one of a thou sand such to tho Louisiana lottery is astonishing even to those who know bo-" fond of gambling the average man is. Ono resident hero has spent over S500 in tho past two years buy- j ing tickets, another has paid out five dollars a month for nearly six jearsj nn1 ji lliirl cni1 lnfnlv fliof Un ? I . . UlUU UWJ UiUV lib 4A4 tended to invest S30 at one time for he was sure then to obtain something. Many send away a dollar or two each month so that the total amount being sent away from tho town would foot up into tho thousands each season. Tho government cannot stop this lot tery swindle too soon, for only five per cent, of the money paid in is ever returned to the people again." Hood's Sarsaparilla Is carefully prepared from Sarsaparilla, Dandelion, Mandrake, Dock, Pipslsscwa, Juniper Berries, and other t ell known and valuable a cgctablc remedies, by a peculiar combination, proportion, and process, gh ingto Hood's Sarsaparilla curathe power not possessed by otlier medicines. It effects remarkable cures where others fail. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is the best blood purifier. It cures Scrofula, Salt Bhcum, Bolls, Pimples, all Humors, Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Sick Headache, Indigestion, General Debility, Catarrh, Rheumatism, Kidney and Lher com 1'lslnts; overcomes Tint Tired Peeling, creates an appetite, builds up the sjstem. Hood's Sarsaparilla Has met unparallcd success at home. Such fs its popularity In Lowell, Mass., where it is made, that Low ell druggists sell more of Hood's Sarsaparilla than all other sarsapa rillas or blood purifiers. The same success is extending all over the country. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is peculiar in Its strength and economy. It is tho only preparation of which can truly be said " 100 Doses One Dollar." A bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla taken accord ing to directions, will last a month. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is peculiar in the confidence it gains among all classes of rcople. "Where it is onco used it becomes a favorite family remedy. Do r.ot be induced to buy other preparations. Bo sure to get the Peculiar Medicine, Hood's Sarsaparilla SoMbjdroggists. 1, six for 55.
