The Columbine went up to the buoy station yesterday morning. The Manzanlta leaves out on her trlD to Pugelt Sound at 6 o'clock this morn ing Twenty-five tons of hay were brought down from uray s river on the May flower yesterday. A car load of clover hay from the Wlilamacte Valley is coming down from Albany itnls week. The steamer Ocoldent has been busy shlfiUng Sutnerland's pile driver to eevenai locations at Sand Island. iSpvera'l two-Inch planks are being run along the piling round Parser's dock to keep, out logs and driftwood. The scow belonging to the steamer Eclipse Is on the gridiron near Dal glty's Iron Works, being caulked and re-planked. All the marine work on which the employes of the Astoria Iron Works have been busy for the past montn Is now completed. The festive Shad are putting In an appearance In large numbers and will tor the next six weeks be plentiful along the waterfront. The Queen came down from Deep river yesterday with a big cargo and a large number of passengers. She left back late In the afternoon. The steamer Alice Blanchard leaves San Francisco for this port at 5:30 this afternoon. She will call at Coos Bay and Marshfleld on the way up. The Southesk and General Roberts started up for Portland yesterday morning in tow of the OcaUhama. Pilots Empklns and Smith were In charge of the vessels. There was considerable discussion along the water front last night as to whether the flag flydng from the mast of the pealing schooner Kate and Ann was larger than the schooner or not. Pilots Cordlner and Grossman are now out on the pilot schooner. With the approach of warm weather they will take turn and turn about every ten days with Pilots Dolg and Staples, who will go out nexlt week. Shortly before noon yesterday the Truokee arrived in from California. She had 17 tons of miscellaneous freight for 'this port, and after discharging left up the river for Portland. Captain Thomas reports that continued head iwlnda caused the lengthy trip. The work of weighing the tin from the ship Highland Home was complet ed at noon yesterday, and all of the plate is now ready to leave bond. It Is a coincidence that the counting ot the cargoes of both the Cuplca and Highland Home took exactly the same number of Ihours. Mir. F. Hag&man, of-the firm of Sut ton & Beefoe, wiho has been in the city for the past two days, states that the British ship Genes.ta, 1700 tons from Philadaliphia to Hlogo, Japan, has been chartered for the new crop of wheat hence in October. Mr. Hagaman left for Portland tost might. The little launch Witch Hazel which went 'to Alaska on the deck of the steamer Al-Kl, from Taooma, on March 24th, Is now on the beach at Dyea, Alaska, The launch was built on tnis river and shipped north by W .R, Hud son. He intended to run her on the Ohilcoot Pass on runners and launch her in the streams leading to the Yu kon. On arriving at Dyea the scheme was found to be impracticable. The bark Melrose 1s at Esquimau with a oargo of lumber for Santa Ro salie, but Captain Peterson and hh crew cannot agree. Five of his men, when orders were given to hoist an chor, refused to sail on the vessel, claiming that they were union men and deoiandlng union pay. Captain Peterson refused to listen to any other proposition than that under which they had shipped, and the five men were ordered In irons. The men appealed to the local authorities, but they up held the master of the vessel. Three of the men finally decided that It was better to work than to live In the fazarette, but the otner two remained obdurate. According to the officers ot the vessel the Melrose will complete her voyage with the two men In irons, unless they come back to the terms on which tlhey left San Francisco. The San Francisco sealing schooner Kate and Ann, Captain Chas. Litchens arrived in at 4 p'clock yesterday after noon, with 391 sealskins, the result of her work since January. The skins are all of Urge size and Captain Litch ens states that they are the best he ever caught. They will be shipped to London via New York on Thursday. Two hundred were caught off the coast of California, about 150 off Destruction Island, and the balance, 33, were cap tured on Monday off the mouth of the Columbia. An attempt was made to hunt yesterday morning, but the wind was too high, and though the water was full of seals, no othsr effort was made to catch them. The season closes today. The Kate and Ann will leave here on Monday next and will from then until December fish for sea otter along the southern Oregon and Califor nia coa3ts. The catch of seal is con sidered remarkably good considering the bad weather encountered during the past two months, and It Is doubt ful if many larger schooners have done as well. GREATEST AND BEST.

There have been more or less Insln uatlons that liave come to my notice, within the past year or two, reflecting upon my character, but knowing the source from which ithey came, I dis. dalned to notice It. But recently my attention was called to the report iby a reputable Jierson, Therefore, I cannot let it pass without announcing tt, and in such a manner that it will leave no doubt In tne mind of the public as to who are the guilty ones. One of the foulest parasites that wears the human form and moves among decent company Is the man that laying any claim to respectability, w,no U'or some trivial or Imagined wrong against a person who perhaps did not vote for this particular person or vote the way he did) will go to work and start lies to injure the character and reputation of any person. They fill a space here amongst men that even the clergy cannot account for, and they ought to be branded across tne forehead with a red hot Iron and stamped with letters of living fire, as a beacon to warn the public, the same as a beacon lighit Is put on a dangerous reef to warn the ocean mariner. The words ought to read: "I AiM A LIAR." Three years ago (In 1892) I was prom lnently connected with raising a fund of some seventeen hundred dollars to open and 'build a road from Astoria to Clatsop Plains. That I made prom. lses in connection with this subscrip tion that I was unable to fulfill, owing to unrorseen changes tnat afterward occurred, is also true, which I will ex plain. While circulating this sub. scriptlon list irl Astoria, I was repeat edly asked: ' How are you going to cross xoungs rives'" I answered "Either with a bridge or steam ferry." At that time, as every one knows, the railroad was under construction. Mr. Goss was building the trestle uo lounge Bay with the intention of crossing above Daggetts Point, and myself along with several prominent men of Astoria, had broached the oro- jeoi to' Mr. Goss of getting a wagon Driage in connection with the railroad orldge, and It had received his favora ble consideration. And. in case that project railed, 'Mr. W. E. Dement, C. 8. ijow, j. w. Keith. Oliver Stewart, mv. self and some others were talking of forming a Joint stock company and puoiing on tnis steam retry. Well, as everyone knows, the hard times came on, the railroad burst up, and owing to tne arawoack tnat we encountered in getting the right of way, we were de- layei some two and one-naif months witn tne collecting of our subscription list and the thing got cold and we lost WOO that we never collected. Theje are tne causes that prevented us from 'onnectlng the Cltv of Astoria with her summer resort. I will say that my Jonneotion with this road subscription :ost me between two and th dred dollars. You will say that was my own fault, but I will anneal to any man who has ever served on a JitDsenption committee If vour nn.r loes not depend largely on what you pay out. A good portion of those who subscribe expect you' to treat them to a drink or a cigar when you sign ind then when you collect they expect ou to treat them and their frinri and as I never was noted for slowness. inner in treating myself or taxing a Irlnk with others, it cost me consld jrable money while I was soliciting irtd collecting in connection with that lutacnlptlon, but every cent was paid, md It all came out of the pocket of Walt Ingalls, and not one cent ever ame out or the subscrlDtlon fund an will prove conclusively by the ep- wuutru, Hignea Dy tne entire board of llrectors that I worked under, except ue mic rj. jv. luney, deceased. . W. J. INGALLS. Chadwell, April 29, 1895. This statement is made to correct tome false statements made by some nallclous person in reference to tho road subscription that was circulated principally Dy w. J. Ingalls In 1892. t was reported that a nart of rh. unds collected by Mr. Inralls W41H ipent by him and not put Into the road. ax tne inception of the nrolect nf mllding this road from Astoria to Jlatsop Plains, a soliciting committee was appointed, of which W. J. IngalTs was one, and after several hundred Jollars nad been subscribed, a meet- ng was canea and a board of directors ras elected, composed of the following arsons, viz: C. S. Dow, J. W. Reith, 1. EToson, E. A. Turlev. anrl Hnr Ober. W.J. Ingalls was elected superlntend nt of construction, and authnrlzn tn et all contracts, subject to the il of the board of directors. He was tuthorized to continue soliciting and lepuait me same witn l. w. Case as reasurer. Mr. ingai'is carried out his art as an 'tne oiners did Dhat had he matter in hand with remarkable uocess and ability. At everv mootinir it the board Mr. Ingalls was nreapn t ind all tine subscription . lists were landed In for the Inspection of the oaro, and an monies collected by Mr. .v. j. ingans were duly accounted for o the entire satisfaction of the hnarri f directors, CHARLES S.
