C2-0 She gaHjj jfatf& ASTOKIA. OREGON: FRIDAY. .-SEPTEMBER 2G. 1690 A eegsxt decision of the attorney general states that an alien does not become a citizen by taking out bis first papers. In Idaho, Governor Snoup Las forbidden registrars of election to register those who have taken out only their first papers. A telbgeam was received in Se attle last Monday by General Agent Xadeau from Superintendent IVIcCabe of the Northern Pacific, stating that a car "with black bass to stock the lakes in that vicinity had left St Paul. On arrival the fish were to be immedi ately put in the lakes. Some exper ienced fishermen have expressed the opinion that the black bass would de stroy the native fish in the lakes on this coast The result of the experi ment remains to bo seen. Jjyst evening there was consider able rdcasurc manifested over the tel cram in the Oicgonian from Port Towusond m reference to forty car lowlfi of iron winch had been ordered for ihc Astoria and South Const rail road. It was talked of all over town, lle new spreading rapidly. All ad iciliod that if it was true and it cer Iniwiyuppoarttl o, - thcbomls are sure 1? disposed of. The favorable pro? pci indicated by that telegram wap a mUv of onc4jal oongratnla'ion. Anorr rhreo quarters of a million doltaswiM this 3 ear be spent on the IiarIor defonses of 2sew York. The coinplolc plant which will ultimately cost something like 10,000,000, will comprise torpedoes, rapid firing guns, submarine mines, heavy armor-pro-toclcd bailor! as of twelve-inch breech loading rilles and other defences. At Sandy Hook alone 330,000 will be spent this year, tiie plant there com prising one twelve-inch high power brecch-londing rifle gun and a battery or twolvc inch mortars. At Coney island will be planted eight twelve inch mortars. Portlaxd -was happylast night, and vull she might be happy and proud ovor lbc opening of tbe Exposition, vririch was to lake place "with consid erable pomp and ceremony. Every thing indicates that tbe attractions tbis year will be far abead of tbose of last year, bigbly creditable as was tbe Exposition lbcn. To-day and tbis evening is press day and tbe quill drivers of tbe state will be welcome gncsts. Tan Astoriax acknowledges receipt of an invitation to be present, and regrets tbat no representative can he spared from tbe office to attend.

Veut few people arc aware of tbe fact tbat iu accordance witb an old law of tbe government, wbicb has never been repealed, every male citizen between tbe ages of 18 and 45 is a sol dier of tbe United States.
