THE CLATSoP WHY'S,

Astoria. October S.-(Editor AstoTian)
1.-The exhibit now being given in Astoria
is intended 10 awaken attention 10 the
farming interests OF tho Lower Column
bia: to show the farmers what can be
done and arouse greater efforts on their
part to produce more for market; 10
convince all classes that only upon the
home products can this community expect
to grow or even exist.
Through the lack Of home products the
community is being daily drained OF its
money and life. Look at the Ilwaco
cranberries, and ask why ara not the
hundreds OF acres OF swamp land, COW
sered with native berries. from Flavel
to Seaside in cultivation. See the fine
looking hams from Nehalem. and ask
why the city is not supplied with home
cured bacon. See the fruit, and inquire
why there are no fruit driers in the
county TO save the fruit that l. reported
to be going to waste on the ground?
Why do not more farmers grow prunes.
like those on exhibition? Why are not
the mountains from Eagle Cliff down
to Harrington's Point. and other portions
of this county, covered with sheep ana
goats? MORE ANON.

Henry George was an honest man, and
he differed from nearly all other so-called
reformers in the absolute sincerity OF his
belief in the peculiar doctrines which
have made him conspicuous II is nom
sense. however 10 call him a martyr or
a hero because Of his sudden and tragic
end. The cause he represented could
have been in no sense furthered by his
election as mayor Of Greater New York.
Long years OF intense study and brood
ing over one idea had made him, like
many other far greater and brighter men
in the worlds past history. crank in
all the word implies. He became the
tool of designing politicians, who saw
under the cloak Of his notoriety and un-
blemished reputation for honesty and
probity, an opportunity 10 carry ends
which he himself in eaner days would
have utterly despised. He more than
once avowed his entire disbelief in the
folly of free silver, and yet the only
plank in his platform which made him
a dangerous factor in the New York
contest was the one upon which Bryan
starred the country last fall. 1t will not
do to say ne perished in an attempt 10
rescue New York from the perlls Of
corruption and misrule, for if that had
been the real object Of his candidacy he
would not have been a candidate at al,
but rather a follower Of the only can
didate who can win upon that single Is
sue, Seth Low. His death was a sad
and regrettable one, under the eircum-
stances, but 1t was doubtless better for
his fame in future history that he died
when he did. As mayor of New York
he could have done nothing whatever for
his pet idea, and If he had been sue
cessful, he would have ultimately re-
tired from his great office with the loss
Of the only name for which he can live
IN hhstory-that Of a man who was noted
for his sincerity and the unselfshness
Of his remarkable but impracticable po-
litical theories and Views.
