TOO LATE; YE CANNOT ENTER

TOO LATE; YE CANNOT ENTER
Now"
The following taken from yesterday :
Oregonian shows commendable action
on the part Of the managers of the
Lewis and Clark fair in Portland:
ITO those local firms who gave to
the Lewis and Clark fair shall be given
back in the shape of space MANIFOLD; !;
to those who gave not shall no space
be given, none at all. The exhibits
committee of the board has been hec-
tored for more and more space by those
who have been the least willing to dig
into their pockets when the fair was
getting on its legs and needed money,
willing to take stock now, still they
clamor for space. But they will not
get it, and those who have taken stock
and are now willing to take more and
are loyal to the exposition are to have
two ellis on the machinery and trans
portation building erected for their
especial benefit.
This, with good many more things,
was decided by the committee as 1t
went about the grounds yesterday aft
ernoon looking up sites for some small
buildings which exhibitors are anxious
to build for themselves. The important
business of the afternoon was deciding
upon the size Of the ellis to be erected
and 125x120 feet was agreed to. Those
win be eentirely taken up by local manu-
facturers who have supported the fair"
There seems to be the same element
in Portland that infests Astoria. When
ever a regatta is given, or any public
entertainment and the people and mer-
chants are called upon to contribute,
there are always a certain class of peo-
pie who never advertise and never
contribute a cent to the enterprises,
who, after the affair assumes definite
shape and is certain to be a success,
always come in on the tail end Of the
procession and want to reap some of
the benefits. A newspaper works hard
to build up city and benefit every
merchant, yet these drones in the hive Of
industry never contribute one cent to-
ward aiding the enterprise. The Port
land contingent of fossiliZed siluriaDs
are now reaping the reward due to all
barnacles on the body polite, and not
only are the gates of the Lewis and
Clark fair to be closed against them,
but they will no doubt be denied ad-
mission to the pearly gates of the New
jerusalem.

NEEDS A BOTTLE OF LINTON'S
COUGH SYRUP.

That life is the result of purely ply
sical and chemical forces, irrespective
Of any divine or vital forces, has been
declared by Prof. Albert p. Matthews
of the University of Chicago to his
class in physiological chemistry.
While refusing to dispute the theory
of the divine origin of life, Professor
Matthews took the stand that the pres
ent creation of life has been proved to
be the result Of purely physico- -chemi-
cal reactions.
Certain chemical substances" he
says, coming together under certain
conditions, do and are bound to produce
life, no matter what theologians may
say. There is no getting away from
facts and the results of laboratory ex-
periments in regard to the production
Of certain phenomena of life are con-
vincing."
Prof. Matthews predicted 1t is only
a matter of time before life itself will
be produced in the laboratory.

IusTlFrARLE HOMICIDE.

The killing of Frank BNitx In Port
land Wednesday by Henry II. Loomis
for alternating his wife's affections.
would be considered, under ordinary
circumstances as justifiahle homicide.
No man has n right to interfere In or
break up the family of another. and
there is no provision of the criminal
statutes sufficient to punish such Of
tenders, when man who has been
wronged, takes the law into his own
hands and kills the dlsrupter. jury
will invariably return verdict of
justification. Had young Loomis simp-
ly killed Fritz Il Is probable that he
would have been acquitted According
to the statement Of the woman's mother
she was participas criminals In that she
encouraged her daughter in her affec-
tions for Fritz She Is now suffering
the penalty brought about by her own
actions. Had she demonstrated with
her daughter, IN her clandestine out
ings with Fritz n murder would have
been averted and her daughter would
have been alive.
The worst crime that can be commit
ted. even worse than murder, Is for a
man to abuse confidence reposed In him
by alternating the affections of another
mans wife and breaking up his home.
II is OF too frequent occurrence and
the only way to effectually stop the
heinious practice is with dose OF cold
lead judiciously administered.
