THE ONLY PETER.

PETER is the only superior person 4
| the senate. 1t would spoil him to knoy
anything. The imperturbability of hi
ignorance is his chief charm. 1t is {
beautiful thing for him to contemplate
that the national banks issue currency
when 1t pays, and withdraw 1t when
1t doesn't pay. He said the other day
the national banks had
withdrawn from circulation, between
1884 and 1890, $191, 100000 of currency,
wrongfully and without any reasonable
excuse, either morals or in law-noth-
ing except what was sometimes called
organized avarice; and he said that
during that period new banks were
being established, so that If all the
banks had issued the notes which they
were authorized to issue, the aggre-
gate amount of circulation would have
been nearly $6OO,OOO,OOO He did not
know how to characterize proceeding
of that kind with sufficient force to
show its enormity."
This Is perfect. The banks issue cir
culatioa when 1t is demanded. The ac-
tion is automatic, and the vindication
of the banks is in the very action the
populist senator condemns. His patent
medicine Is paper money-always more
paper money. 1t is this kind of crank
cry that has been the cheapest fraud
of the swindlers of labor.

THE OPEN SWITCH.

terror of railroad men, and the dread of the
traveller. Its victims-killed, horribly man.
gled or manned for life-are numbered by
the score each year.
Yeteven the dreaded "open switch is not
so widely fatal as is certain disease, which,
without ceasing its activity for an instant, is
daily filling hundreds of graves.
What is that terrible ailment? you ask.
1t is Heart Diseasei "But," you reply, con-
fidently, "I haven't any heart disease-rny
heart is all right" Are you sURE2
Dr. Franklin Miles, of Elkhart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases of the
heart and nervous system, states that disor-
ders of the heart are as common as those Of
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels OR kidneys,
though often unsuspected. The reason peo-
pie are not aware of this important fact is
because symptoms of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed to some other
source. If you have shortness of breath,
huttering or palpitation, pain or tenderness
in left breast, shoulder or side, oppressed or
choking sensation, fainting or smothering
spells, yOur heart is affected.
81 had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My leftpulse was very weak, could
at times scarcely feel it, excitement would
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear of
impending death stared me in the face for
hours. Dr. Miles Nervine and New Heart
Cure are the only medicines that have proved
ofany benefit and cured me" ."-L. M. DYER,
Cloverdale, Nd.

She has not been troubled with pain or
smothering spells since using it. We have
also used DR.. Miles Pills, and we find them
all they are claimed to he."-GEO. L. FINK,

mails are convincing proofs of the wonderful
powers of DR.. Miles NetO Cure for The Heart.

Of fixed facts and steady purpose al
the bottom and top Of Our affairs. The
good the repeal act win do will be
found not to have been wasted, but
increased by the delay.
This is, however, only the first ster
Of long walk. There are many ques-
tions upon touch with which the gov
erning party win fall into confusion.
1t has no stable business principles
about the tariff or anything else. 1t
does not know whether closure rule
is wanted in the senate. There is safe
ty only in advancing the general prop
osltion that 1t is opposed to anything
ational-national election laws. ma
tional banking laws, national currency.
The silver men have throughout the
strife, extending over nearly three
months, been told that the policy of the
ANiiiAiioei otiOu was very liDeTdl IOWa1uS
silver and for an abundant currency.
The Voorhees, declaration attached to
the Wilson bill was meant to be an as
sertion that paper and silver were to
have their innings when gold was es-
tablished. The silver men have stuck
TO 1t that they wanted to know, before
coming to vote, just what the admin
istration meant by doing something
liberal for silver. This was not an
unreasonable suggestion in itself, but
one Of the objections the administra-
tion had to giving assurances of a pol |
Icy was lack of knowledge on the |
part of the president and secretary of
the treasury of what the probable posi-
tion of the administration was. The
time is at hand for the evolution to be
and promulgated. Then
there will be another row.

Hero is the wall from the only Mof
fett, as we prophesied. yesterday:
1.-THE shadows fall.
This is a sorrowful day for America
The most important and far reach
ing event of American history trans
pired in the senate today.
Congress has taken a leap in thu
dark.
1t Is no wonder that the impressive
ness of the hour and the event weighed
the senate chamber into the silence OF
death while the deed was being done
The men who were doing the deed were
appalled, by the responsibility they
were assuming.
Wages will be lowered.
Values win be deprecated.
The prices of every commodity ex-
cept gold win decline
There will be universal contraction
of business to Mt the readjusted none
tary conditions"

WHERE PRAISE is DUE.

interests of a community are too offer
left In the hands of one or two con
scientious men on whose efforts the
great majority gaze with listless ad.
miration, not strong enough to bring
forth "thank YOU" or q shake of the
hand. The public are unfortunately
both ungrateful and unappreciative.
We hope that the citizens of Astoria
VIII prove an exception to the rule by
showing that they know how to value
dislnterested labor and skill expended
In their behalf. We refer TO the admi-
rable result Of Mr. A. j. Johnson's con-
nection with the Oregon exhibit at the
Worlds Fair
A month before the great exposition
was opened to the public, Clatsop
caunty's prospects Of representation
looked blue. Nobody wanted to take
hold. Everyone waited for someone
else to start. One man cut down log
OF spruce, measured it--and that was
all he did. The log is where he left
1t. Another public spirited individual
prepared seven picked salmon cheeks
In glass jar and applied to Director
General Davis for space.
Then, forestry exhibit was spoken
Of and the matter was placed in the
hands of Mr.. Johnson, He went all
through the state selected his speci-
Mems, doomed the forthcoming exhibit
In every paper in Oregon, and then
when he had got what he wanted else
where, came back to Clatsop county
and selected the choice OF his collec-
tion from this locality. He interested
the salmon Gamers so that they
caught some of his enthusiasm and
did nobly, and then he went to Chicago
secured floorage In the horticultural
building, and arranged his forestry ex-
hibit, From the beginning of the Fair
till Monday, when It closed. he has
been at his post In Chicago, never tired
of explaining Clatsop county's location.
telling Of her wonderful resources, and
pointing to his specimens as evidence
OF the truth of his assertions.
Through his acts we have become
known to millions Of people who never
before imagined that we existed. We
have had the biggest advertisement
that we have had since man discovered
the Columbia river And better than
all, as far as local pride Is concerned,
we have with our lumber, tree, and
salmon displays, beaten the exhibitors
OF any single county In the states OF
Oregon or Washington. The Astorian
challenges the newspapers of any other
county in the two states to prove where
clatsop's show of commercial prosper,
Ity and possibilities has been eScelled
or equalled
Mr.. Johnson win be home in the
course of a few weeks He ought to
ret a rOusing reception. and some suit
