Astoria and clatsop Wagon ROAD.

The last meeting Of the board Of trus-
tees OF the Astoria and Clatsop wagon
road was held at the residence Of Mr.. A.
e. Turley. There were present Messrs.
c. 9. Dake, A. e. Turley, J. w. Reith.
and @. Ebson. members of the board. and
W. j. Ingalls,. superintendent Of the road.
The meeting was called to examine and
report on the progress OF the road, and
to ascertain the amount Of work done
and the condition of the finances. The
report Of Superintendent Ingalls,, which
was presented to the commission, was
very interesting II is as follows:
Whole amount subscribed. ......... .s1732. 90
Whole amount collected. .............. 14l9.0 90
We now have very fair dirt road
built all the way from Chas. Hess's dyked
land to the West schoolhouse on Clatsop,
with the exception Of two short pieces,
one near Browers' and the other near
Steffen's, which we are going to cover
with puncheon. This puncheon we in
tend to have split and laid down in as
short time as possible. The approaches
to the ferry on Lewis and Clarke and a
small bridge are yet to be built, but the
lumber is all sawed and on the spot. The
next difficulty that confronts US Ii how
and where to cross Young's bay. We
have built on hopes OF having bridge
put across in connection with the Astoria
and Portland railroad enterprise. but that
business seems to be at standstill at
present. The Goble party are moving.
however, and 1t is among the possibilities
that they may bridge Young's bay below
the Walluski. II they do. we must get a
wagon bridge In connection with the rail-
road bridge. II the bridge project fails
altogether, a steam ferry is our last re-
sort.
There exists a diversity Of opinion con-
Wooden's plan to purchase a portable
mill for the roads. The mill project is
all right, but 1t is a question whether 1t
would be advisable for the county to go
into the business beg to offer my opin-
ion, that II the county court would levy
road tax, sufficient to cover the pur-
chase of a few thousand feet of lumber
each year, at nominal price, say "a or
IS per thousand, we could in q short time
have a large amount Of plank road work
in the county. That lumber can be cut
along the different roads at that price in
large quantities is an assured fact. We
surely should not be behind Pacific coun-
ty over the river. She has had plank
roads for years.
Let me say to all delinquent subscribers
that / will be around again to see them,
Respectfully,

He Betrayed HIS Trust.

d. A. Mays the contractor of this city
has betrayed an important trust imposed
upon him, and the Brickmasons Associ-
alton of Portland, is $l65S poorer in con-
sequence. Mays is brick layer by trade
and resided in Portland several years
before coming to Astoria. He was quite
popular among his fellow workmen, and
his honesty was never questioned. About
two years ago he was chosen treasurer
of the Brickmasons' Association, and had
no difficulty in furnishing the bonds re-
quired. He performed his duties so faith
fully that he was reelected for another
term and no bonds were given by him.
His associates placed implicit confidence
in him and gave little thought as to the
safety of the large sum of money in his
hands, About four months ago Mays
came to Astoria and started O brickyard.
He continued to act as treasurer Of the
association, and kept up correspondence
with the other members. The first OF
last month the lodge was called upon to
pay a sick benefit. The secretary wrote
to Mays, informing him of this, and ask
ing him to remit the money. He replied
by stating that the funds of the associa-
tion were at the Merchants National
bank of Portland but the cashier Of that
Institution DECLARED that Mays had de-
posted no money there. A letter was
written to him, stating the fact. He
made another reply, saying that he had
made mistake, and that he should have
said the money was deposited in an East
Portland bank But the officers saon
