MiiipoM It I know that Astorlit has

liualneas men In this community will
get together und give almost any news

Niipport, then and not till then will we
have lh kind of a new spaper we w ant.
To ask the newspapers to run our way
when we do not sup!,ort them Is to
aak I hut which we have no right to
expect. What we need to begin with
in Astoria Is thorough and complete
oriiunlzatlon. We must organic and
drill continuously. I'tlll until we be
come proud of ourselves, proud of As
toria, and proud of every man and un
dertaking in our midst that speaks for
advancement and Astoria's future
greatness, fan vve not do as other
successful towns have done? Can we
not drill together until we will not ad
mit criticism from outsiders and until
we all actually, enthusiastically and
earnestly believe thaf Astoria Is the
very lout town on earth, and that her
future grer.:nes has no limits; drill
until we see our own faults, then after
seeing tnVm. hide them from outsiders
until we ran do away with them, and
then defy criticism? Organlxatlon will
do thla. Every man Interested in any
manner whatever In our city should, be
an active worker In such an organisa
tion. It seems tn me that we have been so
lung publishing to the world in one way
or another our little troubles and per
sonal differences that now when we
need to work together we And ourselves
for apart and utterly Incapable of cun
certed action upon any proposition.
Why can we not organize to stop per
sonalities, hat k-liltlng, slander and

our neighbor and stop giving support to
any man who tries to stir up strife and
discord In iur midst. If we have in
our city any who continuously try to
cause trouble, who constantly try to
belittle the action of their fellow men
who would And fault with and discour
age enterprise, does anyone think they
.would continue to do so If we were or
ganized to denounce and discounte
nance audi actions? We must organise
to stop the mouths of the enemy, at
home as well as to do battle with the
outsider.
Astoria should have a great future,
hut her measure of greatness will be
determined by ourselves. If we are
not able to take advantage of our pres
ent opportunities with all the possibllb
ties they offer us, then we alone will
have the blame of our failure to bear.
Let us organtxe for Astoria, Let it
be. If you please, "one proposition from
Tongue Point to the sea." but let us not
forget that Astoria Is THE proposi

For many years the efforts of Asto-

ing railroad communication. This has
been the paramount Issue In all efforts
for the Improvement of our town. Its
Importance has never been overlooked.
during the past twenty years. Many
attempts have been made to accomplish
this purpose, but failure has followed
failure until finally the committee of
twenty-one closed a contract with Mr.
A. B. Hammond during the greatest
financial depression this country has
seen. Since this contract was closed,
Mr. Hammond has crowded the con
struction of his road far beyond the ob
ligation he incurred, and far beyond our
expectations. The steel necessary for
the construction of the entire road has
been purchased and paid for and is
now in Astoria. The right of way Is
lined with graders from one end to
the other; all bills have been paid
promptly. Mr. Hammond as well as
the rest of us Is keenly disappointed
In that the large amount of railroad
work has not been followed by the
marked Improvement In all lines of
business which was anticipated. This,
of course, we rightly attribute to the
general depression: but when times Im
prove Astoria will be one of the first to
leap forward. In fact, a marked Im
provement already appears, by reason
of his heavy outlays. All should en

sociates In the work they are now do

enterprises so needful In the develop

the alert for data to be used to our
damage and detriment. No disparaging
reports should emanate here; all such

era of the blue and gray, w ere nominal
ed today by the national Democratic
convention for president and vice pres
ident on a brief but emphatic plat term
which repudiates th doctrines enunclat
ed by the Chicago convention; endorses
President Cleveland and his adminis
tration In glowing terms; declares for
the gold standard, a tariff for revenue
only, liberal shipping laws, currency re
form, civil service and economy In pub
lic expenditures. The spirit that anl
mated the convention was contained
In this declaration of the platform:
"The Democratic party has survived
many defeats, but It could not survive
a victory won In behalf of the doctrine
and policy proclaimed In Its name
Chicago."
And so. In the language of Mr. Ham
mond, of Georgia, this convention h
placed In the hands of other nominees
their banner and bade them fling
forth, skyward, seaward, high an
low."
The real work of the convention was
soon transacted when It was reached,
but a delay In reporting the platform
gave opportunity for a series of elo-
lueut and stirring speeches. The at
tendance was larger than on yesterday
and the enthusiasm was great. Colonel
W. C. P. Breckinridge, the famous blue-
grass orator: DeWItt C. Warner,
New York: H. A. Hammond, of Geor
gia: F. V. Lehman, of Missouri; D. W
Bynum, of Indiana, and Controller of
Currency Eckles, of Illinois, were in
turn called to the stand and stirred
enthusiasm to a high pitch.
When the platform was at last
brought In. shortly before I o'clock, an
after the convention had been in ses
sion three hours, it was read amid an
almost continuous storm of applause
and was adopted unanimously without
a word of debate.
When nominees for president were
called for. it was apparent that Palmer
would be nominated over his protest,
as the opposition to Bragg had concen
t rated upon him. These two names
were the only two presented to the
convention. It was known that a mes
sage from President Cleveland had
reached the convention announcing
that he could not entertain for a mo
ment the suggestion of his own nom
lnatlon, and his decision was at once
accepted as final. Before the states
were called for nominations, Henry
Watterson was taken out of the list by
Carroll, of Louisiana, who from the
platform conveyed to the convention
message from the Kentucky editor in
his retreat in the mountains of Switzer
land. Mr. Watterson, Carroll said, four
days after the Chicago convention, had
cabled that other candidates must be
named, or Democracy was lost. Later
he said he did not want the honor, but
that If no one else could be found to
take command he would not ask others
to go where he would not lead. Now
that others were ready to accept he
preferred to do battle In the ranks.
Some of the nominating speeches were
eloquent and full of Are. Kllboume, of
Michigan, placed Senator Palmer In
nomination, and there was a aeries of
seconding speeches. Burr W. Jones, of
Wisconsin, nominated Gen. Bragg,
"The hero of fifty battles and com
mander of the Iron Brigade."
Illinois waited until all the other
states bad been called. Then Judge
Moran. of Chicago, took the stage and
said they had recognised from the first
that Senator Palmer was the man to
lead the fight. He was, he said, a plat
form in himself. All his life he had
fought flatism, greenbacklsm, free sll
ver and other vagaries. But he had
sealed their lips. After seeing the tern
per of the convention, however, he said.
Illinois was compelled to Join hands
with her sister states tn urging bis
nomination. The roll call Immediately
developed an overwhelming majority in
favor of Senator Palmer, but It pro
ceeded to the end, Palmer receiving
757S votes, and Bragg 1244. At its
conclusion the commander of the Iron
Brigade mounted a chair and in a brief
but graceful speech moved that the
nomination be made unanimous; and
that Wisconsin, in coming Into battle
would be whers brave soldiers should
always be nearest the flashing of the
guns. He was given thlree hearty
cheers and General Palmer was declar
ed the nominee amid an enthusiastic
demonstration, during which the state
guidons were carried a'.icut the hall In
the wake of the Illinois standard. When
Oregon was reached In the call of
states for the nomination for presi
dent, L. L. McArthur read a speech
seconding General Bragg, but the dele
gation was equally divided, and Zera
Hnow, of the same state, seconded Gen.
Palmer. Hugh C Wallace, of Wash
ington, seconded Palmer's nomination.
The vote of Oregon gave Palmer the
necessary two-thirds. There was never
any doubt about General Buckners
nomination for vice-president, except
while Watterson's name was being
talked of for president. When Chair
man CafTery Instructed the secretary
to call the rtates for nominations for
vle,-: resldent, the latter called but one
state, "Kentucky." and the band struck
up "My Old Kentucky Home."
William F. Brodder, of Russdlvllle,
Ky placed General Buckner's nam
formally In nomination, and the nomi
nation was forthwith made unanimous.
After the convention adjourned. Sen
ator Palmer succumbed. He said he
would accept. He said he had never
yet failed to respond to the call of
duty, and he could not do so now, with
sucn a cause at stake.
The platform adopted by the Nation
al Democratic convention today says:
"The declarations of the Chica
go platform attack Individual free
dom, the right of private con
tract, the Independence of the Judi
ciary and the authority of the president
to enforce federal laws. They advo
cate a reckless attempt to Increase the
price of silver by legislation tending
to the debasement of our monetary
standard and through the unlimited is
sue of paper money by the govern
ment. They abandon for Republican
allies the Democratic cause of tariff re
form to court the favor of the protec
tionists to their fiscal heresy. In view
of those and other grave departures
from Democratic principles we cannot
support the candidate of that conven
tion, nor be bound by Its acts. The
Democratic party has survived many
defeats, but it could not survive a vic
tory won on this half doctrine and pol
icy proclaimed in Its name at Chica
go."
It declares for a tariff for revenue
only, and the money plank reads as
follows:
The experience of mankind has shown
that by their natural qualities gold
is the necessary money of the large af-

Eight hundred people assembled at
the electric light station last night to
see the eight round go for a purse of
110)0 between Jim Ryan. Champion
middle-weight of Australia, and "Mys
terious" Billy Smith, champion welter
weight of the world. The men were
evenly matched, both weighing about
1C4 pounds. Jack Wilson, the doughty
little Fort Canby pugilist, refereed the
fight. Tim McGrath was behind Smith,
while Thomas Spencer and Jack Hill
seconded Ryan.
The tight was one of the best ever
seen In the Northwest, although Smith
struck hardly a fair blow. He has the
reputation of being "the foulest fighter
who ever entered the ring," and proved
himself worthy of It. He was practical

the first round was called at 10:35.
Round 1 The first blow struck waa
a foul by Smith. The crowd yelled
"foul.- Smith swung with the right,
but Ryan wasn't there. In a clinch
soon after Smith fouled again and was
promptly hissed. At the end of the
round the crowd yelled "Good boy. Ry

the blow and landed on the Jaw. Some
sharp fighting followed, Ryan landing

the police again Interfered. Wilson
then awarded the fight to Ryan. Smith
tried to make a statement, hut the
crowd hissed him down.
The unanimous opinion waa that Ry

In the first round. Smith struck Just
one fair blow, while Ryan never once
fouled. The Australian proved himself
a clean fighter, -while Smith was hissed
by everyone. Ryan had Smith all but

round, as he was the stronger when the
referee rendered his decision. There is
