.and pianola were also saved. The or
chestrion is valued at $1,000. and the
piano and pianola at about $1,000. Some
of the furniture was removed. but that
saved represents only very small por-
tion of the quantity with which the
hotel was fitted.
1t was reported last night from Long
Beach that there were no guests at the
hotel. but II is thought this statement
must have been incorrect. The sea-
side season is over, but usually the
hotels are not entirely deserted until
late in October.
The Breakers was well known to
many Astorians. II was large build
ing, handsomely furnished, and the
grounds were pretty. Cement walks
encircled the hotel. An electric light
plant was located in an outbuilding.
This plant was not destroyed. The
Breakers had the reputation of being
the finest hotel on the north Pacific
coast, and its destruction will be gener-
ally regretted.
The cost of the building was stated
last evening to have been between
$4,000 and $4,000. The furniture that
was destroyed was valued at about
$500. Whether or not there was any
insurance could not be learned. The
hotel was the property of j. NJ. Arthur,
who, with Mrs. Arthur, occupied it.

Chinese laborers from landing on

have 10000 of them to build the

The tendency for those who
are very active in their purpos-
es and very much alive as to the
ocean of things to be learned in
this world is, every now and
then, to be seized with a sense of
bewilderment because of the alb
solute impossibility of attending
to all the things that seem to
clamor for attention. Such a
feeling is particularly Oppressive
to the young and active, who,
breathing the inspiration of the
seashore, long to conquer the
sea. These thoughts would be
the last to hold any back from
any purpose no matte how wide
and daring that purpose might
be; yet, if we try to cover too
many things, we are bound to
reach moments of despair when
nothing seems possible of ach-
ievement.
Let us see if we can discover
a happy middle way. We ought
to work earnestly at the things
we do, yet we ought never to be
so tied down as to lose interest
in wider things. We ought to
content to strive and struggle
unknown, and yet we ought new
er to be content to be no bodies
in influence. We ought to know
the thing that we can do best
and do it. yet we ought never to
be Indifferent to the things that
others are doing. Somewhere
between content and discomfort
is the nedian way, but along the
way of inaction, because selfish
ness or because of despair, there
is very little happiness. AS for
bewilderment because of attempt
ing too many things, let us un-
derstand that he who runs must
first learn to walk. He who
walks must first show the cap;
acity to creep. A river is first a
stream, but before that it is a
brook, and before that it is a
mere rivulet. Herein is the les
son; to be our utmost just exact
ly where we are placed, but to be
ever reaching forward to more
and greater service. Faithful
ness in the little assures broad
err opportunity; faithfulness and
despair III the little brings broad
er opportunity.

a GREAT CONCESSION.

The ChalllS MESSENGER, be-
lieving that even a small slice is
pretty good when the whole loaf
is out of reach, prints the follow
ing
1--WE are advised that the Ore
gon Short Line railroad will soon
Issue an order of $400 per ton
freight on ores running less than
$4,000 per ton in value from
Mackay to the Salt Lake smelter.
This is the same rate granted
Wood River points, and it will be
of great advantage to shippers
who have this class of ore near
the railroad"
Now, isn't that philanthropy
with a vengence I? The railroad
company making the concession
is likely to die with enlargement
of the heart, after that stipend
our stunt. If the ore runs less
than $50 ton, the avoirdupois
pound is presumed by the big
hearted corporation to be less
than 10 ounces.
Where does any real benefit
come in on such deal as that I?
The railroad company knows just
how mnch to charge on $50 ore
in order to make it return any
thing in the way of prolific the
miner Now, a pound is pound
neither more nor less. There
fore, if a railroad can transport a
to of $50 rock from Mackay to
TO Salt Lake for $4 why could it
not haul ton of $500 rock, or a
ton of pure gold, the same dis
tance for the same money F? 1t
requires no greater strain on the
LOCOMOTIVES not particle more
of coal, not cent extra for help,
TO pull ton of gold than it
would to pull ton of $50 rock,
or ton of sandstone.
This railroad company, like
any other corporation, is simply
looking out for number one by
reaching a claw for every dollar
in sight, or that may hereafter
show up. Experts of the com
pany have no doubt figured the
exact cost of mining and smelt-
ing $50 rock. They know pre-
cisely how much profit is return
ed to the miner, consequently
are how far he can be bled. They
realize that a "a rate is about all
he can stand on $50 rock, there
fore he is magnanimously (Ogiv-
en- special rate"
A railroad company cares no
more for the welfare of miner
than does hyena for the dis
covery of radium. All the com
pany cares for is the rock the
miner has to transport over its
line. This is evidenced by the
fact that if the ore assays over
$50, higher rate is charged. 1t
is all right for the miner to get
n "a rate, but if a railroad can
haul one kind of rock for GER
tain price, it can do likewise with
better grade. 1t therefore
stands out in plain view that
anything above "a rate is a
straight-up gouge.
Such is another one of the en-
ervating influences of a trust, yet
many miners, having a thorough
knowledge of how this railroad
trust is holding them up. will
walk meekly up to the polls this
fall and cast a ballot for the re
publican presidential nominee.
1t is known beyond doubt by
this time that the Cop. wouldn't
do anything to hurt trust for
the world, consequently when a
vote is cast for that party it is a
flat-footed declaration that the
voter endorses the whole mess
postal scandals, trusts, ETC.
