A prominent banker last evening, who Imd witniwwd the arrival and departure of the truln. remarked to a by-atHii'l-r that the actual running of trains Into the city more than any other one thing would assist In the de velopment of the community. 'Of course the railroad by Itaelf cannot do It all. Manufactories, elevators, flour mills, hotels. Hii.l i.ew business block must all be aided before there can be established the great commerce wh'ch nature Intended should be carried on here. Hut It must be admitted that when a man can ride Into the city and obtain from the car windows a view of lis residences imi buslneas blocks, and the grand harbor on the other side, his Impressions of the place will cer tainly be much more favorable at the outset than when he comes down the river In a boat and Is perhaps landed at low tide nt a wharf whose under side only la discernible, through a for est of slimy plies, and perhaps with only the back side of the few buildings along the water front visible from the deck of the boat. When we can Invite our guests to visit us next spring, and they can reach our door In a Pullman car, we will then begin somewhat to realise the Immense advantages of our rail Mad from a general standpoint." Today a new service between Astorta and Seaside ha been Inaugurated, and the accommodations offered In the way of numerous and quick service cannot fall to prove of the highest benefit. It I possible now, without losing an en tire day, to do a few hours' business at Seaside and return before supper. It I also possible to conveniently go to the beaches for supper In the evening, returning at a convenient business hour In the morning. Next season these great advantage will be more fully realised, but doubtless during next month Astorlans will have become fa miliar with the new system. A PAttTY VISIT FLAVEL. The Ships Fulwood and Chelmsford Have Their Pictures Taken, Yesterday afternoon a number of citlsens and several visitors from Port land made a trip to Flavel on the steamer Dwyer. Mr. J.

Commodore Banks, of the Antlope. last evening enteretalned a large num ber of young society people on board his fine ship. The decorations were handsome, and It Is safe to say that every guest thoroughly enjoyed the en tertainment. The good natured skipper was every place at once, and made everyone feel at home. First Officer Bennett, Second Officer Whiting were untiring In their effort to assist the captain In entertaining his guests. The music was excellent and dancing occupied the greater part of the evening. As the guest were leaving the vessel, the cornetlst played "God Save the Queen." while the first officer burned a blue light, which Illu minated the harbor.

There are 430 delegates to the Republican state con vention, which meets here at 10 a. m. tomorrow, and a majority of them are In Tacoma tonight. It will be the larg est convention In the history of the state, but It Is In many respect lack ing in the elements of interest which 'n ...IIV... Ull IHC lULD,IUI V. VU.tl.l- dates. The situation is altogether chaotic, and there is no prospect that It will be made very orderly before the ballot ting for candidates begin. There will j be no test vote on chairman or any j other question, so far a present ap pearance Indicate, before the actual battle begin. For all that, a much- determined struggle I being carried on for the governorship, and all else Is held in abeyance until that I settled. It la, so far, Sullivan, of Pierce county, against the field, and considerable headway ha doubtless been made against him. The opposition I directed chiefly by Eugene Wilson, of Kittitas, and his staunch followers, VanDevan ter. of King, and VanHouten, late of Spokane. Sullivan ha one ve ry strong advantage. He ha the PlerTe county delegation, forty-five In number, aolld- ly behind him. It Is next to King, with 61, the largest representation In the convention. Sullivan' candidacy ha, however, been much damaged by the demoralix- i ed condition of King county. It was expected until today that it would be very largely for him and Governor Mc Graw has been using all his powerful influence in his behalf; but there is a very large defection from McGraw and Sullivan on this question, amounting to about one-half the delegate, and the governor can do nothing with the delegation a a whole. Eugene Wilson claims one-half of the Kins county delegation and he doubt less has a good part of It Scobey has some few votes, but It looks at present as if he Is the least promising of any of the candidates. The southwestern counties, comprising Mason, Chehalis, Lewis. Pacific, Cowiltx. Wahkiakum, Clark and Skamania, with sixty-four Votes, have entered Into an '.lllance. The Spokane delegation, w hich Is controlled by Wilson, will divide Its vote. Whlt son. of Yakima, is not gaining ground. There is an evident feeling among very many delegates tonight that a new man should be brought out. John S. McMillan, of Roche Harbor; J. A. Arrasmith, of Whitman, and D. E. Lesh, of Yakima, are all mentioned. THE BICYCLISTS. New World's Record on the Tandem by Harold and Ellsworth. Spokane, August 25.

Dine and Wine Together In Albany, New York. Albany, N. Y., August 25. The sec ond day of 'William J. Bryan' trip westward from the seclusion of Red Hook was an eventful one. crowded with a variety of incidents of travel, Including a picturesque reception at a summer hotel, a stirring speech to the crowd of worklngmen at the town of Kingston, and culminating In a great meeting at Albany, where the candi date spoke to a crowd estimated at from 7,000 to 10,000 people, packed In the city hall square under the shadow of the state house. Before this demonstration Mr. and Mrs. Bryan sat down to dinner with Senator Hill and prominent Albany Democrats at the senator's magnificent home, known as Wolfert's Roost, whither they were driven directly from the depot. For nearly three hours Mr. Bryan was the guest of the New York senator, and though every participant in the dinner averred that it was a purely social affair, their descriptions were taken with a grain of salt. It be ing the general Impression that an un derstanding was reached which will in - sure to Bryan the support of the par - 1 organization in ir,e siaie, r THE DEMOCRATS. j Washington Gold Htandard Men Moet i at Tacoma.

Gov't Report ABSOLUTELY PURE 'TIIP flflt APT) I T'P j jj, JjfcMULKAl J SOW SURRENDER Populists Gain the Day in the Joint Convention of the Tarty Committees. BRYAN AND WATSON, OR NONE the Populist tate central committee la : state central committee met with the 'express Intention of fusing on elect- , or. The Populist executive committee i was not ready to surrender, and a a result an adjournment waa agreed j upon. During thi Interim the Populist j manager have been overwhelmed with letter, each and every writer de- daring that the only term of fusion !mut be an endorsement of the Populist nominees, Bryan and Watson.. When the meeting of the Populist state central committee opened thi I morning a general sentiment prevailed ' among those present that the only course to pursue wa to stand by Bryan ; and Watson, and If fusion could not ! be accomplished on such terms, then to ; go it alone with a straight-out electoral ; tet. The following communication from the Democratic campaign committee waa then read: "To John C. Young, chairman of the We withdraw two of our Democrat ic electors; you withdraw two of the People.g Party electors; we will In- j dorse the two of your remaining elect ors, you to Indorse our two remaining: electors, thus making a united ticket" This proposal from the? Democratic committee provoked considerable dl- cussion. Finally the Populists adopted the following resolution: "Resolved, That Bryan and "Watson are the regular and only candidates of the People's Party for the office of president and vice-president respect- l ively, and that it Is the duty, will and desire and determination of the Peo ple's Party of Oregon and every loyal voter thereof, to vote for Bryan and Watson electors, and for them only, in the November election." The Democrats decided to surrender and hand over to the Populists all four electors to which the state Is entitled. The national ticket will therefore Ue Bryan and Watson. Electors will be chosen tomorrow. The Populists will nominate two electors, the Democrats one and the free silver Republicans one. H. L. Barkley, of Salem, will represent the silver Republicans on the ticket and Judge Whitney, of Albany, the Dem ocrats. The Populists have not been selected. While the Democrats and sil ver Republicans are allowed one elector each they are bound to vote for Bryan and Watson. The Populists adopted the following: "Mindful of the fact that Sylvester Pennoyer, the Democrat masquerading; under the garb of Populism, by indi rection defeated both the Populist can didates for congress in the late June election in this state, and cognisant of the other fact that he Is now the chief Instrumentality behind the persistent demand for the withdrawal of Populist Brian and Watson electors, the state central committee counsels and advises each and all of the People's Party presidential electors to remain In the field; and admonishes the state execu tive committee that In case a vacancy occurs In the electoral ticket from death or resignation, It 1 the bounden duty, of said committee under the In struction of the state convention, to fill such vacancy, and to fill it with a Pop ulist."
