The best accent meal in the city is
served at "Hotel Irving"

A La Portland.--Astoria is putting up
II metropolitan showing in the hold'up
line. John Corno, the well known ex-
pressman, had occasion to take a party
OF young people to dance on Saturday
night, and having waited for them TO
dance themselves out, he brought them
all back to town, and then started to
escort lady friend to her home on tho
hill end OF Fifteenth street. This ac-
complished he was on his way to his
own quarters for the balance of the
night, and had reached Fifteenth and
Exchange streets when he became
aware OF the fact that he was followed,
lie stopped to investigate the "trailer,'
who immediately swung to the front
aud flashed small electric light in his
face. Corno braced himself for rough
house deal of most any sort, when the
hold.up man took sudden fright at the
approach of someone else homeward
bound that way, and fed. Mr.. Corno
Immediately hunted up Officer Oldberg
and returned to the scene, but there
were no traces of the robber. He is
certain the man intended to rob him
from his makeup and his furtive ac-
tions generally, The alleged thief is
probably u STRAY from Portland,
where competition is so strenuous it is
to hunt other fields in
while, not from any fear of being
caught by the police up there, but for
business reasons.

Echoes From Lewis & Clark. - A
prominent citizen from the Lewis i
Clark was in the city, yesterday, and
a reporter of the Astoria had him cor.
nered for about four minutes and made
him disgourge the following local mat
ters from that corner of Clatsop. The
rains OF Saturday night brought down
nearly 100000 feet of logs. which were
added to the 100000 feet already on
the gravel bars about there. Had the
rain continued for twenty-four hours
longer there would, in all probability,
have been several hundred dollars dam
age done to the Lewis & Clark bridge,
us the current is all at the east end
of the bridge, and the shear boom that
kept the logs in the channel, has been
out for several weeks and it was more
by the grace of luck than of good
management, that the bridge did not 60
out, Why the road and bridge super
intendent did not know this, and why
the bridge-tender did not report it, were
questions the visitor could not answer
with any certitude. l.. F. Libke's team
and wagon, loaded with boom chains,
got off the road line, in the dark on
Sunday night at the ingalls, place, and
it took lots of help and time to get the
outfit Strengthened around and ready
for further travel. The dance at Peter
sens school house on Saturday night
was attended by about twenty couples,
a rather small crowd, owing, probably,
to the inclemency of the weather. A
letter has just been received by W. j.
Ingalls,, from w. X. Newell, commits
sioner for the first district, stating
that he will be in Astoria on the 25th
instant, to attend the horticultural
meeting and will bring others with
him, good reason, in itself, for rous-
ing attendance.

Printer, is far in the lead in the can.

Mr.. Whitney's best endorsement is his

The Gazette hopes that Morrow county
will be in line with the other counties
in giving Mr.. Whitney majority.
Owing to the established rule he is
entitled to another term. His record
in the office is such strong endorse
ment that the people do not desire a
change at the next election. He will
get big vote in Eastern Oregon and
with his undoubted strength in Western
