uHE UNION PACIFIC.

The Union Pacific railroad makes a
good showing in Its annual statement
It not only earned enough last year TO
nay the interest on its bonds, which
amounts, in round numbers, to $4,000
900, but 1t has a surplus besides OF
about $2,1OO, 900. This sum would pay
two and one-half per cent interest on
the stock Of the road, which Is about
$780, 900, 900. The company has nearly
$4,000 900 in cash on hand, and Is re-
ported to be in condition to lend money
In Boston. No wonder that the pro-
ceedings at the annual meeting were
entirely harmonious. The stockholders
very prudently reelected Mr.. s. II. H.
Clark as president, and placed George
Gould in the place held by his father.
Sidney Dillon Ripley likewise takes the
place which the former president Of
the road held in the board of directors.
The success Of the Union Pacific Is due
to good management and economy, as
well as to the general growth Of its
business. It's gross earnings, which
were SIT, 1891, Oe1. in 1884, had increased
to $40, 43S, POS in 1890. 1t may be as
sumo that these were considerably aug
mented last year. although the wheat
traffic was not as brisk as in 1891, when
It was stimulated by high prices abroad.
The Union Is clearly in a good posi-
ton to build the proposed Astoria ex-
tension. 1t could not use its surplus
to better advantage. BY building from
here to Portland 1t would make the
business of the Columbia river a source
of profit instead of loss. 1t would re-
gain at once much of the traffic that
It has lost. Moreover, 1t would give an
impulse to wheat growing that would
be felt throughout the Inland Empire.
The company would likewise promote
the settlement of the country along the
projected line and enable Astoria to
develop the maritime and other re-
sources connected with this richly EN-
dowed region.

TRUSTWORTHY STATEMENTS.
recent New York dispatch reads

A recent New YORK dlspatcn READS:
"James c. Il, a fine looking and
apparently healthy man, was observed to
stagger while walking on Fifth Avenue this
afternoon, and after taking one or two I'M.
certain steps fell to the sidewalk. When
picked up he was dead. A physician ex-
amined the body and pronounced heartdisedss
the cause of death. A peculiarly sad feature
of the case is that Mr.. Il was on his
way to Maine, to settle in the home of his
boyhood. He had passed the previous ten
years in the western mining country, and had
amassed a fortune. IfYOU have any of the
symptoms given inthe followingtestimonials
you should lose nj time in seeking relief:
From John l.. Roberts, Slatington, Pa:
"I have suffered with palpitation, irregular
Pulse, ~fainting and smotheriag spells, pain in
shoulders, side, and arms for over forty years.
For twelve years have been treated without
avail by prominent physicians in my neigh
borhood and in New York. Growing con-
stantly worse, smothering spells followed one
another, so my life was often in danger and
[ needed constant care. As my son had been
cured by DR.. Miles Nep Heart Cure, he sent
me three bottles. The first dose gave me
instant TelltI. DelOI0 uoihB VIZ tooe DOesio
I was completely cured. Although seventy
five years old l feel twenty years younger.
[ claim my cure to be almost a miracle"
Here il a letter from Mrs. John Kolges,
of Cleveland, O.: al had been troubled with
my heart and stomach for years, but for six
teen months had been confined to my bed.
| had four of the best doctors in the city, but
none ofthem could benefitthe weakness ofmy
heart. l also had dropsy and rheumatism.
I never took medicine that relieved me at
once as DR.. Miles New Heart Cure does. l
am much stronger. My appetite is splendid.
I gain strength with every dose. l have
gained more in six weeks from your treat
ment than in sixteen months from all the
doctors"
"Dr. Miles New Cure for the Heart is sold
on a positive guarantee by all druggists.
1t is safe, effective, agreeable, and does cure"

N, e. Stevens, a painter residing at
Astoria, says yesterdays Oregonian,
paid n visit to Portland Wednesday,
and the time he had was enjoyable
while his money lasted. When this
was gone he came to his senses. and as
usual in such cases, he made a COM
plant at police headquarters that he
had been robbed. He said that he
picked up" with a box rustler in the
Peoples theatre and bought her a bot
tie Of beer. paying for it 81, Then he
gave her two dollars more. and she left
the room. That was the last he saw OF
her. The officers. however, could not
render him any assistance. and he was
left to rustic" up money enough to
get out of town with.

WHAT THEY ARE GOOD FOR.
Brandreth's Pills Are the Best Medi-
cine Known.

Brandreth's Pills Are the Best Medi-
cine Known.
First-They are purely vegetable, In
fact a medicated food.
Second-The same dose always pro-
duces the same effect-other purgatives
require increased doses and finally
a acting.
Third They purify the blood.
Fourth-They lnvigorate the diges-
ton and cleanse the stomach and bow
els.
Fifth-They stimulate the liver and
carry off vitiated bile and other depra-
we'd secretion.
The first two or three doses tell the
story. The skin becomes clear, the
eye bright, the mind active, digestion
is restored, ~costiveness cured, the ami
NAL vigor is recruited and all decay ar
rested.
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every
drug store and medicine stores, either
plain or sugar coated.

There Is soemthing irreslstlbly ab-
surd in the Union Pacific and other

the Poetic ocean with Its wonderful
commercial possibilities is SO near at

the whole railroad system OF the United

pie will be amazed that the induce
ments which this region offers to rail-
roads were so long overlooked.
