There "was a lively sprinkle yester day forenoon, and indications were favorable in the afternoon for more rain, but it cleared off at night. Among the speakers last night at the railroad meeting J. 0. Trullinger vas the "wittiest, and made many in teresting, as well as amusing, state ments. Astorians who have visited the Ex position at Portland are unanimous in their favorable comments, and declare it is a Magnificent exhibit, well worth seeing by all our citizens. Charles Michell, who has had so much trouble in finding his daughter KoUie, telegraphed from Portland yes terday to The Astobiak that he had found her all right in that city. Nearly all are availing themselves of the opportunity to secure one of the valuable premiums offered to sub scribers to The Astobiax. Take a lookat them; no trouble to showtliem to you. Chief of Police Barry, who is ex officio city tax collector, reports that taxes are being paid in at a lively rate, asd yesterday nearly S3,000 was paid over his desk. The total of the roll taraed over to the collector was nearly $14,000. The narrow gauge railroad in the Willamette valley east of the main lino of tho Southern Pacifio is being changed io a standard gauge. This will be all tho better for Astoria when her rond to tho Willamette valley is completed. Just as the steamship Stale of Cal ifornia was leaving Snn Francisco for this city yesterday morning, Stew-, ard Kiel died suddenly of heart dis ease. Ho is well known in this city, and his familiar face aud form will lie missed by many travelers. About half past ono o'clock this morning some mischievous night prowler tied a tiu can to a dog's tail and tho affrighted canine was run ning through the streets at a lively rate, but he didn't gain any on the can, for it "stayed with him." For many years W. H. Bartel has been clerk in ono of the largo tin and atove stores in Portland, but is now about to open a store for himself at South Bend. He arrived from there yesterday, and goes up to Portland this morning for his family, and will then remove to his new homo. Nils A. Camborg and John Smith "proved up" on pre-emption claims before Deputy County Clerk Dickin son yesterday.

A football craze is being inaugu rated by both the American and tho English contingent and a meeting for tho purpose of or ganizing club will bo held this even ing in Armory hall. In Portland last week a football league was formed and tho boys here purpose getting to gether a team to meet them. A scratch game will be arranged for. next Saturday at the Smith point grounds. The members of tho Astoria Ama teur Drum Corps are going out among the inhabitants of the city -to-day to dispose of tickets for their anniversary ball on tho 14th of uext month. Tho boys must have money to make a dance, and the only way to cet the money is to sell the tickets. To enable them to sell the tickets peo ple must buy them. That is what they should do, and then go to the hall and danco till they get their money's worth. Buy a ticket and help tho boys along. These drnm mers may be nseded some time to call the nation together. Rather Strange But is a fact that ono can judge a store by its customers; Herman Yis9 tho live Gotliior in the Occident Imfld- ing, called the writer's attention to'tfnVi fact, tho other day. Ton stay with me aJay or a month said he, and -you won't see a mossback come in to buy anything, my customers comprise the,i live energetic pushing folks, who Ap preciate and encourage people after their own heart; if you want to know where the mossback likes to trade watch the store where they, like them cofroo, love to take all they can get aad givo as little- as possible in return.

HE lETlESTiMKI-JEFPS THE RAILROAD QUESTION. All Are f antes TMs Eyening at a Pule Meeting In Liberty Hall TO ARRANGE FOR A RAILROAD Last evening an important meeting of nearly forty of the leading citizens and large property holders was beld by invitation, in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce to consider the railroad question, the most important mailer in reference to the welfare of Astoria at the present time. J. C. Trullinger was chosen chair man aud C. li. Thomson secretary. Remarks were offered by nearly all present, and the meeting was earnest and enthusiastic The' citizens now begin to realize that if a railroad comes to this city it will be secured only by their exertions, and realizing this fact the meeting wa3 a decided success. As there are a large number of in terested people and property holders who were not present, and whose ad vice and assistance is desired, it was voted that a public meeting be held at Liberty Hall this evening at 730 o'clock. Every body who is interested in the welfare and growth of Astoria, every one who owns a home or a foot of land, every person who hopes to see the city in crease in wealth and population is in vited io bo present Propositions will be presented and disenssed, aud if the attendance is large and as enthusiastic in proportion as was the meeting last night, Astoria will have a railroa.l, and preliminary work will bo commenced in less than thirty days. Citizens, it rests with you. Astoria can have a railroad if she so decides. Lay asido everytiug aud come to tho meeting this evening. VOYAGE OF TWO I'LANKS.

Tho currents of tho ocean and of rivers are mysterious, but LeorXan sur, of the Knapplon mills, accident ly made a discovery in xogard io them a few days ago, which ho purposes turning to account Mr. Mansur has a rauch on Seal Rock beach, and of late has been making eomo improve ments in the way of buildings thereon.

Tho plank had come, from tho .Khappton mill and only "four weeks beforo Mr. Mansur had seen "them under the wharf "there. They worked out from among 'the piling and Into the current, but iho great mystery is how the plank found their way down tho river, over tho bar tmd Ithen landed right at the gentleman s house, as it were.

THE CIRCUIT COURT. Twelftk Day of the September Term, Mon day, Sept. 29. 1890.. Yesterday's session of the Circuit court was given over principally to criminal Dusiness, tne cases or Wm. Scott aud Thomas Kearny, charged with robbery, and Jim Toy and six other jpagans, aooused of opium smok ing occupying the court and two juries throughout the entire day. Scott and Kearney on the night of August 9th last, it was charged "stood up" un old man known as Lighthouse Ifelson and relieved him of between 875 and S80in coin. The testimony was somewhat strong against the prisoners. The case was given to the jury shortly after 2 o'clock. Up to 10:30 o'clock Jast night the jury had not been able to agree and they were locked up for the night In tho Chinese cases considerable amusement was occasioned by tho en deavors of the officers to identify the six Pagans who were clustered to gether in front of the judges bench. The officers were sure of one or two of them but not positive in regard to tho others. District Attorney Mc Bride. for the purpose of striking awe into the hearts of the Mongolians, and also to give the jury an idea of how opium is smoked, had the sheriff bring in the layout captured at tho time of tho raid. It comprised pipes, needles, lamps and a tin of the drug, and as it was exposed to view the Chinese eagerly looked at it as if to identify their property. The case was given to the jury early last evening and after a short delib eration a verdict of not guilty was re turned. The only cases on tho civjl calendar called up was that of Worsley & Carruthers against Gr. W. Hume, ac tion to recover 250 commission for selling the steamer Belshaw. Judg ment for the full amount was entered. In the case of Warnstaff & Co. vs. the Falls Pulp Co., the Brayne Pulp Co. et aL the demurrer of the last named company was overruled and they wero given sixty days to answer. MARINE NEWS AND NOTES.

Soura Bent, Wash , Sept. 28, '90. Editob Astehiax: To a visitor familiar with the previous condition of the place, this vicinity has under gone as much of a transformation scene as anything: of which in boy- Jiood's days I reril in the Arabian Nights. Not so very long ago, the South Bend mill, with my old friend John Wood as manager, was about the only thing here, beside the woods and waters, tho lonely hills nnd the deso late tide flats. Now, the graceful crescent that sweeps to tho south is a scene of busy industry. Where forests stood, streets are being graded: whero wild ducks flew, piles ure being driven for stately structures, where land could erst while have been secured for fifteen dollars an acre, the seductive real estate agent now coyly suggests the desirability of a purchase at a price equivalent to 200,000 an acre, and men and horses are grading among ancient fir stumps for a site for a 850,000 hotel. AL Stream, who used to run the tug Hunter, has-been making a thou sand Hollars a month in fortunate in vestments here. Bobert Carruthers, our worthy county commissioner, and his brother AL have 320 acres toward Sea Haven for which they are report ed to have refused SOOjOOO, and other Astorians have struck it equally rich. Time was, when this was all "Shoal water bay." The oyster men from Oysterville, Bruceport and Bay Cen ter, the mill men from South Bend and "Woodard's Landing," were all alike denizens of "Shoalwater bay." Now, all is changed. That part of tho water in a line from tho ocean to Willapa City is n6w "Willapa har bor," and is known and hailed as such, disdaining tho former mislead ing title of "Shoalwater bay." Willapa harbor is, certainly, a safe and deep body of water with a good entrance, somewhat narrow opposito the proposed city of South Bend, but adequate, so far, for all present com mercial demands. In company with tho leaders here, representing all sides, and every con flicting interest, I have been from ono end of the "site" to tho other, a dis tance of three miles, listening to what is "going to be" as seen from their point of view. My candid impressions from what I havo seen and heard are as follews: South Bend is a fixed fact. A city is going to be built here. Nature has done a good deal for the place. Man is going to develop its value. It is a "railroad town;" that is, it is tho rail road that has created whatever is of real estate value here, present or pros pective. Tho Northern Pacific com pany has a lino of railroad building from Yakima through Chehalis to South Bend. They intend to havo a terminal point hero. With the knowl edge of this fact some men came hero a comparatively short time ago and organized tho South Bend Land com pany. They bought all that tho N. P. 1L R. Co. had not already secured, as far as tho South Bend mill. Then they gave tho N. P. people half what they owned. Tho Northern Land and Improvement company was then formed, with N. P. officials in it from one end to tho other, tho hills and flats were platted, and lots 25x120 feet are now being sold. The first company havo a holding oE their own farther west and north, which is for sale. Still further down lies tho orig inal South Bend mill, owned by A. M Simpson nnd associates. In the last ninety days they havo put some of their adjacent property on tho market. Hero we have three different com panies, each with a different townsite, willing and occasionally anxious to sell at prices reasonably dear, and agreeing only on one thing that South Bend "is going to be a great city." Below all these sites lies Sea Haven, toward tho wider channel, a site that somo say will some day upset the cal culations of the present projectors. Apart from ail thi3, every foot all around for miles is held at faucy figures from S100 to S1.000 an acre. From my point of view it is evident that the Tailroad people have the key to the whole situation. Whatever they say goes. The terminal grounds havo been decided upon; tho actual terminus mapped out; and an agree ment made with interested parties that the terminus as thus located, shall remain there two years. After that it looks to me that the railroad terminus will be pushed farther to ward the sea. The programme as stated to me by the N. P. representatives, is to do just what they have done in Tacoma. We all know what they have douo there. Tho company there got hold of nearly all the land in the vicinity of Tacoma, then they organized the Tacoma Land company, sold the property at what seemed to bo big figures, but at prices that have been advancing steadily for six years; and the money received from such sales has been mostly ex pended in developing tho company's property. Everything they did in Tacoma they propose to do here, corral all they can; gobble what they can't get any other way, build a big hotel, docks, streets, offices and stores; induce all possible to como and thus create a city. The difference, is not iu the kind but in degree They will repeat the Tacoma programme on a very much smaller scale. Tn Tricoma they havo spent $3,000,000. In South Bend, I think they $vill spend h."alf;a million. I write tnig-tddirecfe the attention of Astoriaps 'fp thjj fact that the place will soon bo blgeuough fbdemand recogni tionandtaat eyery dictate of business policy Buggestaiho desirability of se curingsiid retaining the South Bend trade. The pobtjlQ -here wliom I have met aro all friendly foils. They look to Astoria asJiheir t&buto1 'entrepot and headquarters. jSeattIo and Tacoma aro oleft, fmefaire pushing forward to secure'TthoValuaDlo trade of this entire section. .Thatrtrade is naturally tribu tary to 'Astoria. TJpon Astoria mer charibj gopeiifls (ho question whioh way&alLlruVtxado go. Tho natural tenderiey Is'our way. It will be easier to retain itrthan o -regain it It is worth Becuring even now, and in tho nextjear, whichever way it goes, that way ltriH permanently -take. As'et-thereare'buttho beginnings of a fcifer. Tho population is about 900. Xjpio this month thero was no gov eriiment. T6 tho credit of tho peo ple, be;ft said, thero has been little need of one, iho community being ex ceptionally quiet and orderly, es peciallyfor such a cosmopolitan gath ering. But now they havo a newly elected Bet of officials, who expect to shortlytako their seats and ran tho city of South Bend. They have or ganized a chamber of commerce, of which the clever and competent M. D. Egbert is president, and already the questions or a seawall, water works, street lights, eta, are being discussed. There is an undercurrent of dissen sion here that is working against the place. The sooner all parties start pulling together, the better for all concerned. Property is held at gilt-sdged prices too high for the average man to touch. It would, in my opinion, be better to let would-be hnilrlprs n-nA investors in than to reserve choice blocks for bulk speculators. I again revert to the nee&Hitv fnr Astoria to secure the South Bend trade. The Uwaco railroad is an im portant link in this matter, and the owners 01 tne roaa tea me tnat tney will co-operate. It looks to me that the first nrime reamsite is fnr As. torians to run a steamer regularly to ana from aouth 5end. I mean a steamer owned by Astorians in As toria, and with tho direct intent fn build up a profitable Astoria and ooutn J3ena traae. xius can be done. The LB.&N. Co. mnk crnnd fimo by boat and rail to Sealand whero prompt connection is made with the steamer City of Astoria. One leav ing Astoria at 8 a. m. can reach hero fifty-seven miles by 3 o'clock tho same aiiemoon. xno place is worm a visit, and would surprise one who had not seen this embryo city for a year. J. F.
