THE NAME IS CHANGED.
One Of the Postoffices, in Clatsop County
Has Been Re-Christened.

From the Astoria postoffice the news
comes that the postmaster general has
changed the name of Push" postoffice,
this county, to "Necanicnm." This of
fee is located on the Necanicum river
neir Seaside.
Doubtless this change was made on
petition Of the people from Push but
why they should change from such a
an energetic name is hard to understand.
Necanicum suggests nothing, 1t is simple
when the pronunciation is once learned;
falls out ot the mouth and away from
the tongue like floats on gillnet that
is being hauled from net rack into a
fishboat. A sort of ripple-like sound.
But Push" That suggests the pent-up
energy of 500 Clatsop county citizens !;
with all the energy and ambition that
the race has by rights of inheritance,
But it is the season for changes, so let
them come.

taIns near the headwaters Of The Nc

business men who have hnd Ia that
part Of the state will some day realize
from their Investment,
"ihc soil down In that country only

ground In Oregon said Mr.. Eakin yes.
tciday, while tlrc land is unoccupied
AS yet there are good many people
looking over the ground in that section.
In tho little valleys there which are
only. irrigated by the small water that
they receive from the clouds the pro.
ducts grow in profusion that Is sur
pri,ing Everything looks prosperous
and healthy,
AT the present time the people are
talking Of the two proposed railroads
which are said to be soon 10 tap the
country, Crews are reported to be at
work and the building OF the railroad
ard the subject Of irrigation and re-.
clamaiion are the principal topics Of
conversation"
Mr., Eakin Is glad TO return TO his
home and says that although the coun'
try visited is very fine he is content
with Astoria for time yet. The first
news of the Columbia disaster was told
10 him yesterday morning by members
Of his family, While on the trip he lid
not hear n word from the outside world
and was considerably shocked TO hear
the sad news OF the fate OF the vessel.

nesses in his behalf, Holt, who has

zen he was promptly hailed before the
lar OF justice, Holt is the man who
struck man in Elickson's saloon in
Portland sometime ago, who in falling
