An Australian wedding Custom.

Our Australian cousins have hit upon
pretty device as a substitute for the
Objectionable practice of throwing
rice over bridal pair as they leave
the church or start for their honey
moon. At recent marriage the guests
ahowcred rose leaves over the happy
couple when they took their departure
for the wedding tour until the bride
was literally covered with the fragrant
ros%ate petals rs she sat in the car
riat;e. This is IL more poetic way of
symoolizing ones desire that the union
may be prosperous and fruitful than
tho more irritating shower of rice that
scratches the skin, rl7jfles the tempers
and possibly lodges in the eyes OF tho
groom and bride.

It seems to us that the man most
fitted for the position of school super

Lyman. He knows the work thorough

no hesitation in recommending him to
the directors as having the best qualifi-
cations for the position. The place oil

made entirely apart from the post OF

contribute to defrayIng tho expenses
caused by their conduct.
This has been done. They pay a IL
cenRe.
The money they pay for their license
makes them pear much or the expense
Of their evil ways.
The more the community becomes IA
vorable to temperance, or the nearer
they are TO being convinced that total
abstinence is desirable. the higher the
license on the saloons will be made,
until It becomes prohibitory to some Of
them.
And 1t is similarly so with gambling.
II anything the drinking saloon is
worse than the gambling house.
The Historian is making no crusade
In this matter. but 1t believes that 1t
voices the opinion of a majority of the
intelligent portion Of this community
In what it says.
There are state laws that have been
a dead letter so far as their enforce
ment is concerned. They have been
openly and VIGOROUSLY disregarded.
There are city ordinances that have the
same history.
They were not enforced because 1t
was known that the attempt at en-
forcement would make great expense
and fail of success.
The laws were. and are yet, obnox-
lous to a majority Of u people.
They conflict seriously with, and to
the damage Of what are generally con-
sidered business interests.
The present spasm Of law enforce
ment will result In the modification or
repeal of these laws.
The attempt to convict all OF the UNI
fortunates that were run in" during
the past few nights, will make a heavy
expense to be borne by u overbur-
dened taxpayers, and 1t is likely that
the result will be a failure to convict
and punish them.
The Historian does not wish to be
considered an oracle, oil a censor Of
public opinion, but it does wish to re-
feet the best judgment Of the commu-
nifty In whcih It's interests and welfare
are held.
The editorial columns of a newspaper
should not be loaded with the individ-
ual opinions of the editor. but the opin'
Ions there given should be shaped by
the best judgement of all interests.
The Historian believes that it repre-
sents the opinion Of this community
when It advocates licensing both sa-
looms and gambling houses, and making
them pay as high a license as the traffic
will bear.
In thus compelling them to pay for
some of the injury they do, there is
not one jot added to the responsibility
Of their occupation.
1t simply causes them to yield up
some of their ill-gotten gains.
It is in effect a fine paid in advance,
" them and their customers.
This wave Of reform is now rolling
Ugh up on the shore from which it will
loon recede.
Let us observe where we are when
he disturbed waters find their level.

ON A r oPI

The Historian desires to advocate
public measures that will be most ben
eficial to this community, all things
considered.
In order that O law or an ordinance
may be Of benefit to
the community for which 1t Is enacted,
1t must be practicable. There must be
ability, and willingness on the part of
the community to enforce the law.
In this country, where every citizen
is equal to every other citizen before
the law, a majority and preponderance
of opinion Is necessary to support those
officers whose duty 1t is to punish law
breakers,
II the majority of the people Of As
toria were religious, church-going peo-
pie, then the rest Of the Inhabitants
could be compelled at least to keep an
outward observance Of the Sabbath
day. The majority could close all
places Of amusement, stop street cars
and motor lines from running, 80 that
people would either have to
stay at nome in solemn contemplation
or go to church, or go ON foot.
But II the ~church-going, religit us.
Sunday-observing element is In the mi
nority, then strict regulations of a re-
llgious nature cannot be enforced.
Those who desire to indulge In amuse-
ments, pleasure trips, or athletic games
on Sunday, or those who conscientious
ly wish to observe some other day
than Sunday, will rebel against what
they consider an unjust restriction OF
personal liberty.
II It Is attempted to enforce existing
prohihltory laws against them, they
will c punishment, for they may
be tried by a jury selected from theil
neighbors and sympathizers, and they
viii not convict them for having donC
that which they wish to do themselves
For this reason, an attempt to on.
force prohibitory laws in Astoria at
present must fail.
The majority OF our people consider
the street cars and motor lines n great
convenience on Sunday AZ well as on
week days. and some who have only
Sundays in which to ride wish the
livery stables TO be kept open. while
to stop the steamers OF Astoria would
be as cruel as to kill the gondolas in
Venice,
There are two extremes. Wig; The n
to let the wicked and the careless peo-
pie do as they please without hlndrance
or penalty. The other, to let the rigidly
moral and religious people have things
as they please. which would be to COM
pei every one to do as they do.
Neither OF these extremes can rule.
1t is not reasonable that they should.
This is proved by experience.
The Historian claims that the middle
ground. a compromise between the two
extremes. is the sensible thing to ad-
vocate.
There was the same objection urged
against licensing saloons that is now
urged against gambling.
Results count. II drinking will be
INDUCED in in spite Of all law to the
contrary, then It is better that those
who win drink should be compelled TO

Every part Of stamp making is
done by hand. The designs are
engraved on steel, two hundred
stamps on a single plate. These
plates are linked by two men, and
are then printed by a girl aud
man on large hand press. They
are dried as fast as printed and
then gummed with a starch paste
made FROM potatoes. This paste
is dried by placing the sheets in
a steam tanning machine, and
then the stamps are subjected to
a pressure of two thousand tons in
hydraulic presses. Next the
sheets are cut so that each one
contains one hundred stamps, af@
ter which the paper between the
stamps is perforated and, after
being pressed, the sheets are FL
ed away. If a single stamp is
injured, the whole sheet is burn
ed.

Australia has too much mutton
and too little money for the num-
Der of banks trying to earn inter
est on it. This year q drouth is
affecting New South Wales and
pasture is scarce. On one range
things have got to such a pass that
$500 sheep we're offered to any
body for nothing, but without an
acceptor. The thrifty owner had
taken care to shear his sheep and
they were not worth a cent for any
other purpose. In other parts of
the country the focks are being
boiled down. After clipping about
a half dollar is a fair price and the
buyer has no great bargain of
profit. Things are going to the
bad with almost as much bang as
in Argentine where the skin is
worth more than the carcass. The
Australians are very hopeful that
times will flourish once more, but
they must expand in their indus
tries. Wool and meat exporting
is not sufficient, especially as both
show tendencies downward. Many
of the sheep runs are no longer as
rich as a gold mine.
