Of the new law has been issued by the
authorities" That probably the same
course will be pursued as In the case Of
other forms Of gambling" viz: that in
place OF arresting the gamblers every
time they violate the law. and lnaIct
all the penalties the law directs until
these law breakers are compelled To

not manufactured these charges; / read
these statements in your paper. But
this being the method Of dealing with
gambling could civic pcrfidy-the BE-
trHyal Of official trust--be greater than
this? Could the shame Of our CITY he

all the world to read? New York even

revealed no greater moral turpitude.
Yet all the nation shuddered over the
vice and official completely with law
breaking In that mammoth city. Who
is responsible for this state Of affairs In
Astoria? What party elects officials
who take a solemn oath Of office TO en-.
force the state or city laws and then
proceed to perjure themselves and make
a mock Of our laws by making the res
eryatiOn that only certain Of our laws
shall be enforced, while certain priw-
lodged classes Of offenders shall be
tacltly permitted TO continue their un-
lawful deeds? ] repeat, no wonder
youthful law breakers abound In As
torfa! But how dare courts IN Astoria
sentence these boys to long terms of
imprisonment in reform school when
adult law-breakers are openly permitted
to continue their unlawful deeds?
Is there no patriotism, no sense OF
civic morality or civic honor left In the
breast Of the voting Astorian-the mas
ter Of all Astorian officials?

A lively rate war is on between the
companies operating along the Columbia
to Portland The first cut was made yes
terday morning, when the o. r. &c n.
Company announced a reduction in its
round-'rip rate between Astoria and
Portland from $3.50 to 81. The slngle-trip
rate, formerly $50, came down to H.2O
Last night a still further reduction was
made. and people today can make the
round-trip for $3.50. This is the lowest
figure reached in years. From what could
be learned yesterday. the cut is due %
the failure Of the several river lines and
the railroad company TO come TO an
agreement on rates. IT appears that rep
resentatives Of all the companies have
been in conference in Portland for sew
eral days past, but 1t was impossible for
them to come 70 an understanding. Only
the o. r. & n. Company sold tickets at
reduced rates yesterday the other steam-
er lines asking the rates which have been
charged heretOfore-Sl5 and $3.50. The
railroad company has utterly Ignored the
cut thus far, and tickets for the single
trip still SELF for 81. round-trip tickets
selling for 49, There Is considerable
speculation among agents Of the several
transportation companies as to the out
come Of the war. 1t is generally believed
by them, however. that. should an i'm
mediate agreement not be reached. the
war will continue until rates are down TO
a figure never before dreamed Of. One Of
the officials Of a steamboat company said
iast night that he expected to see the
%. X. & ~ Company announce more %
cent cuts ntil the other lines come 10
terms. and, nasmuch as two cuts were
made yesterday his view Of the situation
seems likely 10 be fulfilled Railroad Of
ficials have received no instructions as
yet and II was impossible 10 get an eX-
preston from them regarding the prob
ability OF their company meeting the
cut It is evident that the o. r. e. N
Company intends to corral the business,
no matter how great a cut IT may have
to make, unless an agreement is reached
whereby some rate can be determined up
on satisfactory to all the lines con
cerned. From present indications, il
seems quite ukely that no such agree
ment will be Immediately reached, and
