WINDS AN D DRAFTS.

BY draft is meant the currents OF
air in an inclosed space. Our fore
fathers attributed nearly all the evils
that beset them to drafts, and they
would not have slept Id uncurtained
beds for anything OF course their
windows and doors were shaky, and
houses stood far apart, SO drafts were
nearly inevitable. But the modern sci
entiic world tries to deny drafts alto
gether and calls them winds. which are
harmless and even healthy to certain
degree.
Any one who cares to find out the
difference between wind and d draft

A BOSTON LANDMARK
HISTORY or A FAMOUS OLD ELM
DESTROYED BY THE WIND.

This Celebrated Tree, Believed to
Have Existed Before the settlement,
Of the City. Was Blown Down In
the Great storm OF 1875.
Feb. is, 1876, was q sad day for To-
cal historians in Boston, for the news
papers announced the next day that at
about Z o'clock the previous evening
the old elm on Boston Common had
been destroyed BY great storm which
swept over the city at that time. So
many eulogies, both oral and written,
were delivered on this most ancient Of
Boston's landmarks, and 1T was real
lied that q: connecting link with the
remote past was. gone forever. az
1t Ia not known when the tree began
TO grow. but an old Boston tradition
was that the wife OF Thomas Hancock,
the eminent merchant, who was Lydia
Henchman before her marriage, claim
cd that her grandf ather, Hezekiah
Henchman, planted the tree when he
was a boy. This woul6 have made the
tree Just 200 years old at the time Of
its destruction. 4
IT is probable that some OF the many
persons on record as being publicly;
executed on Boston Common looked on
tie fair world for the last time when
standing beneath it, branches, for 1t

In 1925 the first recorded measure

Pushing the Work.

Great credit belongs to the contractor
and workmen on the big and difficult
work in remodeling the building and
store of S. Danziger & Co., 4SS and 4sO
Commercial st. The cold weather has
not been favorable to rapid work, and
besides the crowds that are attend
ing the big bargain sale interfere more
or less with fast work at times. There
never was such an opportunity to save
money. as this big sale offers l-S tt
1-2 off on thousands Of dollars worth
Of choicest Clothing, Hats, Shoes and
Furnishings. Seems to have started
all the coast to this great sale. Dan
ziger g. Co.'s name for fine goods and
square dealing is known near and far
People have visited Astoria since the
big sale began expressly to attend the
big sale, from almost every direction
within so miles. for such chances to
buy the best at a real bargain sale
brought them to Astoria, and all lines
of business get more or less benefit
from the visitors.

rHE HUMOROUS PAPER.

THE HUMOROUS PAPER.
Time was when the newspaper whose
columns were filed with humorous
articles were in great demand. Peck's
Sun of Milwaukee was a popular fa-
vorite. Bin Nye's Boomerang. pub
lished at Laramie. was at one time
the most popular paper in the United
States. The Texas Siftings was an
other paper that met popular favor
But all of these publications have long
since passed out of existence Not be-
cause humorous papers are not ap-
preciated. but because all the humor-
lists have gone TO that undiscovered
country, with the single exception of
the editor of the Astoria Budget.
In the first original editorial that has
appeared in that publication for near
ly a year. the editor and chief was
groomed and after undoing a snivel
service examination. had the audacity
to write an editorial with a pencil in
stead of the shears and paste pot so
much in vogue In that office. Atten-
ton is called to an editorial in last
Fridays edition, wherein the only ex-
ponent of democracy in CIatsop coun-
ty, claimed the credit for the defeat
of the Tuttle charter bin, and in a
suave and immodest manner, not as
simulated in any way with egotism,
publicly announced, in an original edi-
torial, "that the Budget had always
been right on the charter amendment" "
The editorial in question was SHOWN
to. a number of democratic politicians
who watch the trend of events, and
they were surprised and amazed at
the audacity Of the official organ Of the
democratic party He stated that he
had read the Budget for years. and
had never known or heard Of its ever
expressing an opinion on any subject
for fear that 1t might lose subscribe
er.
1t is currently reported that as soon
as Tone Smith sufficiently RECEIVERS
from his victory in Salem that he will
offer a standing reward of $1,000 for a
copy Of the Astoria Budget in whicn
an original editorial has ever been
published in which the Budg-t took a
decided stand on any political subject.
In this particular instance mentioned,
the Budget is like a Sleeps tail--al
ways behind. 1t never chirped dur
ing the entire session of the legisla-
ture for or against the Tuttle charter
bill or any other subject. A newgpa-
per of limited circulation cannot afford
to take any chances of losing a sub
scriber, and if 1t were to declare itself,
such an accident might possibly hap
pen.
The editorial published Friday in
which the Budget claimed the credit of
defeating the Tuttle charter bill and
in which it announced that It has al
ways been right on every subject of
local importance, was regarded as a
humorous joke, and many people who
read it looked to see If it had not been
credited to Bill Nye, but it wasn't. II
was actually written in the Office OF
the official organ Of the unterrifed
democracy of Clatsop county. Coming
out as it did after the charter bill ha(
been defeated 1t had great influenc,
in moulding legislation during the clos
ing hours of the legislature. Beini
the first opinion ever expressed by that
journal, many of the residents Of As
toria have cut it out and win have l
framed.
