(One Night Only,
Monday, October 6th, '90.
Having been duly recorded, is now on the market. It is one
of the finest suburbs to Astoria, situated, as it is, at the head
of navigation on the Lewis arid Clarke river, seven miles from
istoria and backed by about fifty settlers. It is the finest and
most fertile valley in Clatsop County. Besides it -coutains
x several logging camps, etc.

MONDAY

Poewabd to a speedy completion is
the motto o the electric cable rail
way over the bill, as will be seen by
reference to our local columns. The
final survey to locato the stakes com
mences to-day and the plant will be
ordered this week. Work on this line
is an important event for Astoria,
and the road will wonderfully
increase the value of all prop
erty near it The only rejjret is that
it will increase the value of land
owned by those who were too mean
to contribute a dollar, in the same
ratio that it adds to the wealth of the
liberal men who gave money and land
to secure it, but "the rain f .ills alike
upon the just and the unjust," and the
result cannot be changed.
CmzExs generally seem to be very
favorably inclined to the proposition
that CoL Taylor and sons build a
railroad to Portland if a subsidy of
$509,000 is raised by the people.
Many think it an excellent idea, and.
suggest that a definite proposition be
submitted for consideration, believing
that it would be agreed to. It would
start money in circulation, revive
business, increase the volume of
local trade and give a general impetus
to all branches of local industry
"When tho coal fields of the Nehalcm
would bo reached by the railroad,
vast quantities of coal would come
over the line, and be taken away by
vessels. Astoria may as well build a
road herself and own it, as to pay for
some one else to build it, and then not
own it
BAnsESTXESs of purpose and a firm
dolennininaliou to achieve success are
as essential attributes of a community
a3 of an individual. The man who
sits down quietly in an obscure place
and who docs nothing to mako himself
known among his fellow men, but who
thinks that because he is physically
well formed and has a good education ho
will soon be in demand and that people
will como out of tho way to securo his
services, would bo rated by sensible
men as a fooL What is the difference
b3tween such a man and Astoria as a
town? Ycry little, fn fact, tho dif
ference is so small, it could bo blown
through a quill into the eye of a hum
ming bird and the bird's eyesight
would not be injured. If the
cifo is to amount to much,
it it would keep paco with
the live cities about it, tho
citizens must manifest more energy,
we must do something for ourselves,
not wait supinely for some one else to
do it for us. We can build a railroad
ourselves it we will, and own it
Baisa one million dollars even by
mortgaging personal property and
build fifty miles. When that is con
structed and paid for a half million
dollars can be borrowed on
it and another twenty-five
miles built Before that timo the peo
ple of the Willamette valley would
commence the other end and build
to a connection with us. It can be
done. It is not visionary. Energy
and perseverance will accomplish it,
and the success, growth and wealth
of the city would surely follow.
atd. Tennis Decaying.
Lawn tennis, it is said, is played
out The truth is that in these days
it is no good playing at all unless you
play really welL We are beginning
to look around for a substitute. Golf
is becoming daily more fashionable,
and would, no doubt, soon be the so
ciety game par excellence, were it not
for the drawback that a golf-links
covers more space than be can provided
in ordinary gardens. I do not know
how many miles must needs be tra
versed before finishing a single game.
In despair of finding a suitable new
game in which to whilo away the
summer hours, there is a talk of re-introducing
croquet but surely this
terrible calamity- will be averted. Wo
are no longer the simple-minded
youths and maidens of our grand
mothers' days, and tho mild delights
of crpquet, coupled with the mildest
of flirtations with the curate why, I
wonder, are the curates and croquet
indissolubly linked together? have
no charm for the minds of the Jin
de siedc London letter to Phila
delphia Times.
The Other Side.
A man who spent ten months in
South Carolina, where divorces are
never granted, mado a record of 510
separations, many ot tiieni witli a
murder as the result and several hun
died cases where husband and wifo
have lived together for years without
speakinjr. Hesas that divorce would
liavo been n xrodsend in every case.
