SIDEWALK NEEDED.

Star Newspaper:-Kindly allow the
writer little space for the purpose OF
directing attention to great trouble
and inconvenience to pedestrians trav-
cling from lower King street to Leleo
and the railroad depot. The street
being narrow in that locality all avail
able space is taken up by vehicles,
tram cars, horeback riders, etc.
School children are continually N
great danger of being run over.
Dredger and piping operations, dig
gings and upheavals have added to
the pilikia.
If the road department were to lay
down even two planks and level the
side walk it would be temporary re-
lief. Pedestrians could then go dry
shod, instead of wading through a
mud slough in heavy weather. There
is more traffic towards the railroad
depot and outlying districts in that
direction than in any other part of the
city or suburbs.

6THE COLUMBIA THEATER MAN
AGEMENT IN SAN FRANCISCO.
IL the Frawley Season Is Successful
They viii Send More Companies
Handsome Blanche Bates.

The firm of Friedlander, Gottlob d.
Co., managers of the Columbia The
atre in San Francisco, which is con-
sidered the most popular house on the
Coast and also managers of, and joint
proprietors in the Frawley Company,
is about one of the busiest and most
enterprising theatrical firms in the
States.
Mr.. Melville Marx, one of the mem
bers of the firm, and now in Honolulu
in the interests of the Frawley Co., in
Speaking of their bookings, said that
much depended upon the success of
the coming season of the Frawley
Company in Honolulu. Their success
here with their own company would
fractions that they are handling, so
kthat Honolulu could be profitably con
ksidered for four or five performances
with each of their attractions.
Mr.. Marx says that without a doubt
Mr.. Frawley's leading lady, Miss
Blanche Bates, stands head aud
shoulders in dramatic sense, above
nearly all her competitors in the
States. The following from the San
Francisco Chronicle of recent date is
but one of the many tributes paid
this charming young lady:
at is possible that the thousands
who have enjoyed in the past four
fances of the Frawley Company at the
EColumbia have never given a moments
Thought to the hard work these per-
lformances entailed on the people talk

Fed up to this week was new to some Of
Ethe company. and several of the plays
E,yere new to all the company. This
meant continual hard study, week in
and week out. Blanche Bates, for in

could call her own. From Brother

l'uchsia Leath in "Moths"-Miss Bates
has had new, long and eXacting part
to prepare. In The Social Trust" in
THE Great Unknown" in His Wife's
Father" and in two or three others
Miss Bates had not only to learn the
words, but she had to imagine, invent
and arrange the business of the parts
as well. There are certain instructions
of course, with every play, but an act
ress of Miss Bates brain is not salts
fed with inch-measure orders. She
must be left free to enlarge to a Ger.
tain extent. All this sort of thing
means long hours and tired nerves
Yet in the clever natural and at times
brilliant acting of Miss Bates there
has been never a hint of wearinesS
either in manner or looks. To her the
public is indebted for some of the
most delightful evenings of the past
summer"

MYRTLES ENTERTAIN.

Popular Boating Club Pleases Friends
With Dancing Party.
1t was most pleasant evening that
favored the house warming at the new
boat house of the Myrtle Club last
evening. The weather was not too
warm, as a result of the showers dur
ing the day, the cool breezes coming
from over the ocean were refreshing
and the glaring lights of the many
Chinese lanterns hung up about the
building, made the scene one of gaiety
and brilliancy. The club house was
profusely decorated with flags and
bunting.
Nearly one thousand invitations had
been issued and the main dance hail
and the new lanai of the club were so
crowded with ladies and gentlemen
that barely room to move about was
left on the floor, Everybody present
appeared to have entered into the
spirit of the occasion. Dancing was
the chief pleasure of the evening,
while others who did not care to "trip
the light fantastic" whiled away the
evening in social chat.
Mesdames E. f. Bishop, II. d. Wal
bridge and NJ. c. Monsarrat were the
patronesses; Mrs. f. A. Schaefer being
absent owing to recent bereavement
in her family. The arrangement COM
mittee was composed of Dr. NJ. I.
Monsarrat, chairman; Walter Dilling-
ham, William Wright, Ed II. Paris,
Charles Crane and Fred Angus. Dr.
Monsarrat officiated as floor manager.
The dance program consisted of fif-
teen numbers and three extras. There
was an intermission for refreshments.
The attendance included leading So
ciety people, all of whom agreed that
the Myrtles were most attentive enter
tainers and that the function was a
successful and delightful occasion.

A Protective Tariff.

We renew and emphasize our allegl-

true American policy taxes foreign pro-
ducts and encourages home industry:
Il puts the burden ~ revenue on for

market for the American producer; Il
upholds the American standard OF
wages for the American workingman:
II puts the factory by the side OF ,he

less dependent on foreign demand and

Reciprocity With Other Nations.

We believe the repeal ~ the reci-
procity arrangements negotiated by the
last Republican administration was a
national calamity. and we demand
their renewal and extension on such
terms as viii equallze our trade with
other nations. remove the restrictions
which now obstruct the sale OF Amer
lean products In the ports Of other
countries and secure the enlarged mar
kets Of our farms, forests and factories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin
measures OF Republican policy, and go
hand in hand. Democratic rule has
recklessly struck down both. and both
must be re-establlshed Protection for
what we produce, free admission for
the necessarles Of life which we don't
produce, reciprocal agreements Of mu-
tual Interest which gain open markets
for US in return for our open market to
others. Protection builds up domestic
industry and trade and secures our
own market for ourselves. Reciprocity
builds UP foreign trade and finds an
outlet for our surplus.

How many young men and young

They are taken away by the disease
which causes over one-sixth OF all the
deaths in the world-the disease which
doctors call consumption. There is alb
solutely no reason in the world why
consumption should be fatal--why II
should be even serious. II is a disease
OF the blood and can be cured abso-
lutely and always by purifying and en-
riching the blood. The only exception
to this is the case where the disease
has been neglected and improperly
treated until II is stronger than the
body-until the body has become so
weak as to have lost the ability to re-
cuperate. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery will cure 9s per cent Of all
cases OF consumption II used according
to directions. II also cures all linger-
ing coughs, bronchial and throat af-
fections.

COUNTY ROADS,

The question Of good county roads
in Clatsop county is one the import
ance of which cannot be oyerestimated,
either from the standpoint of the mer-
chant or the farmer There are really
few who do not realize the necessity
for proper means of communication
between the city and the country dis
tricts. There are many earnest work.
ers both in Astoria and in the country
who have long made efforts TO secure
tangible results. There are others, ap-
parently equally as anxious TO secure
good roads, but who when the time
comes to put plans in execution and
raise the necessary funds for the work,
are not quite so anxious for a road.
1t is all well enough to possess ad-
vantages secured at somebody's eIse's
expense. The Lewis and Clarke people
are a noteworthy exception in this re-
speet. and their good example ought
to be followed by every district in the
county.
This is rich county. made so by ma
ture, and even though times are tenn
porarily depressed, to obtain good roads
is one way TO make times better. II
needs no lengthy argument TO con-
vince the most sceptical that, If a
farmer is enabled to haul his produce
70 -, Ion -
and at one-half Of the expense Of wear
and tear on teams and vehicles, over
a good road, as compared with the time
and expense of transporting goods
ever a highway having steep grades
and filled with mud holes, profits
will accrue for the farmers labor
where losses were formerly incurred.
The experience Of many years in
European countries has thoroughly
demonstrated the necessity for and the
great benefits resulting from good
country highways. While it's true that
in this western country, where the pop
ulation is sparse, the tax for roads
mUct fall upon the shoulders Of a few
as compared with our own eastern
states and the countries of Europe. yet
the fact remains that there is no ex-
Gust for poor roads in Clatsop country.
With an abundance Of cheap material
at hand, good roads can be built which |
will last a reasonable length of time. |
and, as suggested in another column, a |
small portable sawmill in the POSSES
sion Of the county, with everybody |
putting their shoulders to the wheel, |
the cost Of making good roads would |
be reduced to a figure within our
means. Six months Of every year good |
progress can be made in this direction, |
and the Astorian believes that it will |
be done. Those who have so earnestly |
been working upon these lines should |
not cease their efforts. and soon others
will follow A good basis for another |
important road in the county is al |
ready laid on easy grades, and the ad-
vantage ought not to be lost The
twelve mile pipe line to Bear creek |
viii not only make a magnificent pleas
ure driveway, but will afford easy COM
muuication with large section Of
