Not at all. Those who have been

is u freak and has no object, unless
some one who has swollen his circula-

sensational methods, thinks he can
catch some esteemed contemporary In
the indulgence of passion for perjury.
The majority of newspapers of this
class are very much alike concerning
circulation, They are as particular

This is from the Oregonian of yes
terday:
"The question Of licensing gambling
has thrown Astoria into a fever. BY
amendment to the city charter at the
last session Of the legislature, the power
to license this evil was conferred upon
the city council and now there is a
hard fight over the question of exer-
cising the power. Whether an evil may
best be treated by license, prohibition,
regulation and restriction, or by being
let alone entirely, Is always one of con-
ditions, varying with localities. Sensi-
ole men look upon evils that have their
root in characteristics of human ma
ture, and have existed since the dawn
If civilization, as calling for such treat
nent as will achieve the most practi-
,al results in minimizing their effects.
For this reason they believe in pro-
hibition, license. restriction and letting
tlone. according to the practical out
,ome of the policy as applied to the
conditions as found to exist. Astoria
may be trusted to settle this matter for
herself. If the first decision prove to
be wrong, It will no doubt be reversed"
Here we have the opinion Of SEN
sible man, we'll expressed. An evil
like gambling must be governed by To-
cal conditions and not by a code Of
morality that never bends or deals
with live issues.

lon of the best lawyers and jurists in
the state. In another column will be
found communication from Judge
Raleigh Stott, Of Portland, Of the firm
of stott, Boise, & stott, who rank
among the first members of the profess
sion on the Pacific coast.
This absolutely knocks away one of
the chief arguments of the other side,
and makes certain our statement that
there is no illegality or conflict with
the state law on the part Of the pro-
posed ordinance. It may be explained
that there is no equivocation In the
clause Of the new charter concerning
the ordinance, but that its terms
state its meaning Enthusiastically.

ever, 1t is well known to the people at
large that the journals whose testimony

Today the whole Christian world re-
joices and the fasting and sorrow Of
the Lenten season give place to songs
of gladness and praise. The story that
is told from pulpits year after year
never grows old, and today we will hear
the same words and the same touching
tale of the crucihxion and resurrection,
as eagerly and as willingly as If 1t were
new and strange. Easter is to the
Christian man the embodiment of all
happy thoughts. for 1t is the anniver-
sary of the glory-crowned ascension Of
his Master AS such, 1t is a season Of
hope and comforting thoughts. The
budding spring and the signs of new
life all around us emphasize and vivify
the feelings that the season awakens.

Very few people probably realize that
the date for the opening Of the Colum-
bian Exposition at Chicago Is near at
hand. But four full weeks remain be-
fore the day will dawn which has long
been anticipated by the projectors Of
the great fair. The arrival of the car
avels Pinta and Nina at Havana, the
daily announcement of the receipt Of
important exhibits. and the putting on
of the finishing touches to the magnif-
icent buildings are all proofs that the
final preparations for opening are be-
ing made.
People are asking each other the all
absorbing question, Are you going to
the feir?" And many are rashly re-
plying that they don't expect to, Some
are hesitlting about the expense, others
think that the crowd will be annoying,
and others appear to fear that the
long journey and the trouble of viewing
the exhibits will involve too much la
Dor.
1t may be said in reply to all thest
objections that people do not begin tt
realize yet the stupendous proportions
Of the exposition nor what Is to bt
seen there. The world has been lait
under contribution. Only a. compare
lively few people can visit the olo
World. but when the Old World ex-
hibits are sent here very large num-
Der OF people should go to see them
even II they strain point to do 1t.
New and Old World products will be
viewed side by side in Chicago. and the
educational advantages of this are not
comprehended or appreciated at this
time. The reason why more people
have not made up their minds to go to
the fair Is because the marvellous ex-
tent and variety of the exposition Is not
understood, When a few returning pill
grlms from Chicago begin 10 tell of
what they have seen. then the exodus
to the City of the Plains will augment.
People will go there II they have to
walk. The visit will be remembered az
long as life lasts. and the educational
advantages will be inestimable,

The New York Marine Journal con-
tains a very interesting article on the
loss of the Naronic, on the theory that
she capsized. A Sandy Hook pilot re-
peats a conversation he had with her
commander, Captain Roberts, in which
the latter stated that the Naronic was
the deepest rolling ship he had ever
seen; that she had frequently rolled
the ends of her bridge in the water,
and that he was going to recommend
the owners to have her keels attached
to her bilges, with hope that 1t might
steady her somewhat.
1t is supposed that the four thousand
tons Of freight on the Naronic may not
have been we'll placed, especially that
a forty-ton locomotive was placed on
deck. The Marine Journal gives as Its
Judgment that the Naronic turned tur-
tie" on being struck by a heavy beam
sea and thrown on her beam ends.
Another heavy sea following would
complete the work of capsizing her.
after which she would very soon fill
through the companion way, sky lights
and ventilators. Under such conditions
the weather boats might possibly be
cleared by cutting the falls, which
would account for their being sighted
by the Coventry.
1t Is not likely the boats could have
cleared with crews, as at least one Of
them must have done to fix up the sea
anchor, If the accident was a capsize.
It is the accepted opinion Of seamen
that the City Of Boston, of which no
trace was ever found, capsized in a
storm. Her cargo was chiefly bulk
wheat which settles and then rolls
with the ship.

Lincoln, and claiming TO come from
Dallas, Texas, has been in the neigh
borhood for the last four or five weeks,
claiming to teach vocal music He only
taught a few days when he gave 1t Out
in whispers that he wass government
detective. and arrested one party for
selling liquor Illegally. While working
around he got up q lot of irregularities
claiming to have been committed by the
postmaster at Troy, &. L. Gideon In
Gideon's absence he went TO the post
office and presented himself t Mrs
Matte Bell, Gideon's sister, acting
temporarily for him, and with this list
OF manufactured Irregularities and a
bogus telegram authorizing him TO
arrest Gideon he so worked on Mrs
Bells feelings and fears that she paid
him over $40 as hush money. Receiv-
ing this he skipped the country and has
been heard from since. Lincoln Is
about six feet tall, weighs about 80
pounds, has light hair and mustache,

JACKSON, Nov. 30.-The reversal BY
the Supreme Court Of the celebrated cas-
Of Jack Swanson of course sends it back
for another trial in the lower court, with
all the consequent wranglings usually
attending such trials. The decision Of
the Supreme Court only mean that
owing to certain Irregularities pending
the first trial the defendant is entitled
70 another chance. There were several
exceptions taken to tie ruling OF the
lower court, but the point on which the
-Ieyersal was secured was that at least
one OF the jurors was shown TO have
read one or more newspapers during the
trial. which commented adversely on
the defendant The court stated that
the lower court erred in admitting evil
dence OF the murder by defendant and
brother OF young Parker near Dover,
Tenn, but tnasmuch Is the fact ap-
peared to have had no effect in deter
allowed to pass. So il will be seen the
case was reversed solely because the
jury happened to have a man on il with
literary attainments sufficient TO make
MIN yearn Tor a newspaper. lie got the
paper. and is supposed to have read IL,
and Jack Swanson was decrced another
trial.
1t viii be remembered that early in
last january Policemen Guice and Hines.
while attempting to arrest Jack and Ed
Swanson, were killed by them. The
killing caused the most intense excite
ment and SO great was the desire for
summary vengeance that there was more
than strong talk of lynching the pris-
oners. After the killing both took 70
the woods, but were captured a few
hours afterward- Owing to the excite
ment, the prisoners were ordered placed
in the penitentiary for s~afe-keeping,
and there they remained until their
trial.
They were tried here and with much
difficulty Jack was convicted of man
slaughter and given twenty years, while
Ed was cleared. Ed was at once placed
in charge of the Tennessee authorities
and carried to Dover TO stand trial as
accessory TO the murder o. Young Par.

his lawyers their appeal, which resulted
