The first thing a stranger notices on coming to Astoria to. live Is the ap pearance of intelligence and thrift which marks her people. It can be said, In all seriousness and without ex aggeration, that no city of the same size on the Coast, if, Indeed, in any part of the country, can show the same proportion of sober, well-fed and Indus trious-looking people. There are abso lutely no Idle men standing around the public places, 1 as In so many olhei towns and cities. There, are no volun tary lodgers In the police stations; everybody seems to have something tc do, and to be In a hurry to get about it. The churches look prosperous nnd aw well attended, and the schools are ac tually far ah end of the slxe and Import ance of the place. Another thing, too, is that the "old residents" do not seem to resent the incoming of a stranger (a they do In places which could bt i'umod) like certain sort of fathers are said to look upon a fresh arrival lit' the family another mouth to feed, us It were, out of what la already not enough to go around. People do hot look at you out of the corners of their -yes and make Inaudible (to you) re marks to their neighbor as you pass along the streets. They do not slse you up according to the accident of the sec tion of country you happen to hal; from. They do not Inquire your re. llgion.or politics the first thing, nor not the quality of the furniture you bring with you and the state of youi bank account. No, on the contrary. every man and woman you meet bid you hearty welcome; says, "I know you will like Astoria." "This la one of th best arid most healthful places to live In on the Coast." "We aro going to have a great town here after awhile." "You are sure to do well." and many other like remarks. It Is pleasant to come to such a com muntty. One feel Interested from the bt-Klnnlng as If, In some way, he was destined to contribute to Its up-bulld-Ing, and he becomes anxious to bo at m. Identified with the place and peo j.le. Thi'iv U and can be no better way to advertise t, good town or country. a.nd '.a nmke us-ful cltUens of thore who come to It. iuv cviiir..:r... mr.de in a sph tt. of entire sincerity, and It In a sjtlsfactlon to believe that the tide ha turned In Astoria's favor, ami that with the natural advantages of location and resources, her good citi zens will surely realize a substantial return before many days for their hos pitality and courtesy to fie strangers within their gates. A VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE. It la evident that the people are not letting slip any chance to repudiate the antl-AmericP.n polity which Is being pursued by a Democratic congress and administration and to express the wish '.hat the war upon home Industries, of which the Wilson tariff bill Is the In strument, should be halted and oban doned. There is no such thing as either mistaking or explaining uway the re sults of the latest elections. Last No. vember, when the Democrats were routed all along the line, a more or less successful effort was made to account for the phenomenon upon theories which did not Involve the discredit of the Democratic party. A variety of causes, all Imaginable causes except the true one, were given to account for what had taken place. In Ohio it was the personal popularity of Gov. McKin- ley that had done the business. In New York it was the personal unpopularity of Judge Maynard. New Jersey had gone Republican as a protest against the race-track legislation, and Pennsyl vania had rolled up Its big majority for Mr. Orow partly from force of habit and partly because the thousands of Democrats, disgusted at the tardiness with which Mr. Cleveland had been turnlna- the rascals out, had inullHhly refused to go to the polls. Such are some of the stories which the Democrats told themselves and others, and from which they sought to extract a modicum of consolation and encouragement. Perhaps by dint oi ne quent reiteration they reached the point of believing theHe yarn" themselves. Anyhow, they continued to Insist that they had received a mandate from the country to smash the tariff, that this ie what they were sent to Washington to do, and then they would nild that they proposed to do IK If any one will turn to the flies of the dnlly papers of No vember and December, he will And that such wna the line of argument and ex hortation which those oracles of Denv ocracy pursued. The regnant Democ. racy at the national capital was ad. monlBhed that It must keep right on with the good work. It was warned that there must be no looking back after putting the "hand to the plough, and was assured that it might safely and properly Ignore the Indications of stormv weather ahead. It was told In the language of the ancient unbeliever, who scoffed at the venerable Noah and his ark, that. It wnsn't going to be much of a shower, anyway, and when In the midst of their asservatlons to that ef fect Pennsylvania returned that mojv strolls majority for Grow, the oracles never turned a hair. Said they, the Keystone state, like Kphrntm of old. Is hopelessly Joined to Its Idols. Let no man regard It. Well, what are they going to say now7 What new and Ingenious theories will they Invent to account for reverses which cover the length and breadth of the land nnd confound the Democracy of the east and west alike In common disaster? What Interpretation will Bel-shaxzar-Cleveland'a prophets find to fit the fresh handwriting on the wall? The Republican Daniels will decipher it without difficulty. They will see In It another and a most emphatic condem nation of the Democratic party and all It works, from the platonlc philander ing of Mr. Cleveland with Lllluokalanl to the silver fanaticism of Mr. Illand and the economic heresies of the Wil son tariff bill. That Is what the result of the latest elections will mean Republicans, nnd It will encouras Ihcm everywhere to stick to their punr nnd to hold the fort until tho people have an opportunity to conic to their relief.

A sweet little blue eyed girl, with nancy dimples in her cheeks, rode out in a Ian- dean to Fairinount park nnd the zoo the other afternoon. She was dressed in snowy white, and elio sceiiioa to like the ride through the trees of the great park. But she was particularly pleased with the bearg at the zoo, which she fed lav '4 V V,'., Ishly with peanuts. She didn't like the monkeys at all, she Raid, but she thought the elephants cnte.

Trending 'r Clsum. With the lido's Koing out at Jamaica bay a queer pursuit daily is enacted north of thu breakwater opposite Cunur sie. Near low tide, as the flats first ap pear from the receding waters, strange bare legged human figures begin to pace the narrow mud strip. As the wet, brown expanse widens nnd lengthens they nre joined by others, until a dozen or more of men anil hoys nro patrolling tho lovel ooze with downcast eyes, as if in deep meditation or hunting for the traditional needle usually ascribed to the haystack. The.so men r.ro "treading clams" that is, feeling for these shell fish with their feet, which sink to tho ankle at every step. ' The clam of Cannrsio does not, lileo iiis sand abiding brother of the soft shell, indicate his presence by a hole, but lies in soft mud lisnr tho surface and can be located only by tho sense of touch. The clam tremler thus has in his avocation nn excitement akin to that of a lottery in which ho sometimes draws worse than a blank when his foot encounters a bro ken bottle or a crab, causing hia sedate pace to chungo to capers not unworthy the ballet. Strung out in an irregular lino, carrying baskets and buckets, with thoir straw huts and white or colored shirts n-tinpping, these treaders make a picturesquo procession, which continues until, with turn of tide, tho rising water gradually drives them off the flats. New York Sun. Gsrlo sue! the Chickens. Carlo early manifested a love for watch ing and chasing chickens--a pastime not to be neglected with the small opportu nities of tho city. We soon, by kindness and firmness and much talking, broke him of disturbing our own chickens. We often took a little chick in our hands, and said to him "pretty chicky. Carlo's chicky!" and allowed him to lick it gently. Soon it was not only safe, bnt safer to have him in the pen with the chicks than otherwise, n3 then no rat or mouse dared venture there,' From the first, Carlo has deemed tiieso marauders worthy of deatli whenever and where ever seen and acts out his convictions. As the chickens j;rev their munbrr was reduced to VI, and these wcro transferred to tVo bar.!. Every t!i;rht for two years Carlo made c dcln;:r if tho perches, giving each fowl a good lick they wore so ucqnuinted it did not alarm them at all and if one or wore of tin) number wcretihscnt he would immediately scour the premises until it was found, then gave n peculiar bark, indicating the discovery, nor would ho givo it up till the lmm'.H'r was complete.
