The contract for constructing the
two cottages and congregated dining
hall at the state insane asylum was
yesterday awarded to contractor John
Gray on his bid of $24, 1881. 80, says the
Statesman. The lowest bid submitted
August 7th, was that of H. C. Liebe of
Portland, for $21, ,434. On account of the
doubt at that time about building at
ALL Mr.. Liebe's request to have his
certified check for 5000 returned to
him, was granted. When it was con-
cluded to have the work partly done
this year Mr.. Liebe discovered that he
had made a mistake in figuring the
cost of plumbing, allowing 1ess than
the work would cost. AS it was mani
fest that it was an error in calcula-
ton, Mr.. Liebe was permitted to with
draw his bid and the contract was let
to the next highest bidder, John Gray
Most of the bidders bid very near the
sum named by Mr.. Gray, seven being
under $4,000. Mr.. Gray has entered in
to bond in a sum equal to the contract
price and will at once begin work en-
the buildings. He is to have the frames
erected and sheathed this year and all
the lumber but that required for finish
ing purposes on the ground.

Yesterdays Oregonian says: Asses
sor Gearhart's letter to Assessor Ster-
ling was dated July 18th, and it car
ries something Of pathos in its ear
nest interest in the duties of the Of
flee. To overwork, indeed, is probably
almost wholly due the breaking down
which led to his dementia and attack
upon his life. Gearhart was one of the
best assessors in the state, and very
clear-headed about Oregon's burdens
and needs in taxation legislation. 1t is
gratifying that hope exists that treat
ment in California may so restore him
that his counsels may yet be heard at
the postponed meeting. Astoria needs
to take care of what men it has like
Gearhart. 1t hasn't too many of them"

IF possible, wish you could get the
Clatsop farmers to bring you in some
of the finest and largest turnips, ruta-
bagas, onions, etc.; mark them we'll
and send to VIM. Savage in charge OF
the state fair at Salem. AS soon as the
fair is over, Mr.. Savage will send them
to us in Chicago to be placed in our
exhibit. He is going to ship lot of
the state fair exhibit to the Worlds
Fair and this is an opportunity for
Clatsop county to show itself. The at
tendance at the exposition is getting
larger all the time. We have raised
our spruce block up on end and our
place is full all day long with people
admiring the immense trees Of Oregon.
They say Oregon must be wonderful
