MORE BRYAN FoRGERIEs,
Some Methods Exposed Which Have
Recn Used on an Unsuspcctlng
Public.

The iisrcputahlc methods and lying
inventions or Bryan's campaign man.
ayers and press representatives have
been so thoroughly ventilated and dis
crsdited that hardly any respectable
paper now dcigns 10 notice the fresh
fakes and falsehoods which continue tn
emanRte from these sources As the
campaign closes, however there Is one
species OF fraud in which the small fly
among the dlsorderly elements now
threatening the country has become So
adept. and which certain local free sll.
Yer organs In their desperation over
Bryans waning chances. are prepar-
ing to carry to such fragrant and OF.
fensive lengths. as TO require immediate
and vigorous Interference.
Knowing very well from previous cx-
pericnce that no campaign statement
which they could print as their own
production would carry any weight or
command any attention, these papers
are now stealing tho cloak Of the tec-
graph companies under which TO utter
the vilest and most prcpostcrous Gu
nnrds against Mckinley. and by means
~ bogus and forged dispatches, pur-
porting To come through the reputable
agency Of some press association, they
are daily dishing out TO their readers
pretended developments and facts IN the
campaign favorable to Bryan's interests
which have never had any existence
and could never happen except In the
disordered Imaginations OF their dis
eased or dishonest brains.
II is perhaps known 10 most newspa-
per readers In this city that the Asto-
rlan controls the only telegraphlc press
report which comes to Astoria, and
every word Of the columns Of pretend
ed telegraphlc news printed In other pa
pers is manufactured bodily in the offi-
ces OF these publications. or clipped and
garbled from old newspapers arriving
here by slow course OF mail.
II would be a great shame and in
justice, after all the legitimate and
labor performed for Nc
Kinley and the cause OF sound money
by the Republican organizations Of
Clatsop county. IL one solitary unln-
formed or timld voter should be in
huenced or distressed by the roorbachs
which may be expected to appear in
these papers on the eve Of election.
The following certificate from the
managers OF the only telegraph COM
panies whose wires enter this city
ought to put quletus upon dishonest
methods OF this order. II has
been procured and is published In the
interest of truth and the protection OF
Clatsop county voters against the
frauds and lmpositIons already at
tempted and which will be still further
attempted for the purpose OF misleading
them in their patriotic duty on the
third day Of next November:

VIOLIN MUSIC NOVELTY.

Count Kosminsky. who is with the
Maginel-Mullin Concert Co. is positively
the greatest novelty performer on the
violin today in existence. Has TO be
seen and heard to be appreciated. With
a single violin he will produce an imi-
tation Of a full orchestra playing an
overture. and were you not looking di-
rectly at him you would positively say
that it was an impossibility. After you
have seen and heard this performance
you will say there Is one thing you
would have thought impossible.
The Mullin Sisters are as talented as
they are beautiful. Their execution on
the different musical instruments is
revelation Of the impossibiities. Wher-
ever they have appeared they have
been greeted by large and enthusiastic
audiences.
They give one concert only at Fishers
Opera House Tuesday next, october
10th.

T.. N. Lafond, chief of the fire de-
partment, went to the Twin Cities
Wednesday to investiga te the cost OF
a new double. 35-gallon chemical en-
CINE for the Little Falls fire depart
ment. The necessity of some appa-
ratus for fire protection for the
northeast portion OF the city is
apparent, and it seems to be the
opinion OF those pest posted that the
city shonld get larger chemical for
the business portion Of the city and
place the one we now have up some
where in Staples addition. or in that
vicinity. The council at it's meeting
last Saturday evening voted to have
the chief get prices on a suitable
engine and to report as soon as pos
sible. The cost. it is said, according
to the latest price lists, for an engine
such as was recommended, would be
in the neighborhood Of 81 900. This
