Apropos of the many candidates and proposed candidates for the preslden - tial nomlnaticn. a local politician said yesterday: "The difficulty which ton- fronts most presidential candidal -s coms from the awful fact that their boom Is apt to change Itself Into a bomb long before they get within sight of tho White House."

The atmosphere was so remarkably clear yesterday that Captain Patterson, from the top of Coxeombe Hill, with the aid of a glass, was able lo follow the sieamir Elder as she s'oamed down the coast on her way to S.1.1 I'ranrtlsco. He says he does not recollect a duy In A.ito tia, summer or winter, when the air has Is-en so crystalline, and that it was a pleasure to simply be out of doors.

J. .Smilh. of the Astoria Land .ml Inii-stment Company, says that in his opinion, it would now be the proper thing for the Chamber of Commerce to take up the matter of county roads on broad lines and foi.-e an Issue. Martin Foard thinks that the Chamber of Commerce might evolve some plan for action I throne,;, the slate legislature on this road question. The matter Is an Important one, he ays, and demands the attention of the best talent in that body. Messrs. Palglty, J. C. Trul!lnger, W. K. r em.ii!, Nuic Corr.ahtin, O.
