his vote to the republicans for a 81

The Fuel Situation

In a letter of advice to City Agen"
Giles B. Johnson, of the A, Y Y,
received yesterday, H. NJ Adams OF
the general office of the Spokane,
Portland & Seattle Railway, the ques-
ton is raised Of the expediency OF
Astorians providing against a fuel Ia
mine such as prevailed here some
time ago, and suggesting that Mr.
Johnson look into the situation and
do what he may to meet it as it de-
veloped, in transportation sense
The matter has its points OF interest
10 many and Mr.. Johnson's further
investigation is likely to accentuate
them, For instance, from his reports
to headquarters, on the subject of fuel
transportation as between the Tongue
Point milling plant and the city, the
A & g. hauled 23 cars Of slabwood
fuel in July, lo7, and 1874 cars in July
Of this year, which indicates that Mr.,

Rigors OF War Duty

Officers and men at Forts Stevens
and Columbia are deep in rigorous
duties OF field and camp work, with
their comfortable barracks as far
away as If the companies were on
distant fighting territory (but quite
near enough to be we'll remembered,
at odd moments). The forces are
put through all the tactical work
known to the profession and are maxi
ing an excellent showing in all drills.
They will stay out about ten days
longer in this behalf. The steamer
Major Howard has been shot into
splinters on several different occa-
sions and Captain Gordon and his
men tell veritable Munchausen tales
of her frequent loss and recovery, in
the riotous seas off the Columbia
jetty.

Art OF Knowing How


The man who neds, or wants, a les
son in the practicalities of life, can
get one at every step he makes
through live town like Astoria; for
instance, yesterday, in the dim and
grim silence of the westerly half of
the big Q. R. & N. pier, a reporter
came across sturdy drayman, work
ing quite alone and doing an immense
task, and doing it well. He was load
ing three-ton donkey boiler and en-
gihe, and all its ponderous appurte-
nances, on the dray, by himself, with
the aid Of the truck-winch and cable
with which the vehicle was equipped.
He made no fuss about it, but simply
went ahead, with trained skill and
equally trained patience, and few
hand tools; did not seem to work
overly hard either; but he put that
huge outfit safely, and cleverly, on the
truck, and then went to the barn for
the team that he drove, brought them
to the load, hitched up, drove to the
destination prescribed in his orders,
and as deliberately, and easily, un-
loaded it He never lost moment,
and so far as the reporter knows,
never "cussed" once It's all in the
art of knowing how"
