proper thing for both Mr., Harry ana
Mr.. Hendrickson to have done when
local option was carried in the pre-
cinct was to have closed their places
~ business and sought new locations
where the objections and sentiments
Of the community were not so pro,
nounced. The people OF uniontownI
have right to determine whether
linuors are to be sold in close prox-
unity to their residences. 1t Is not a
question only of the existence OF sa-
looms. but the iemoralizing influences
to which the children of that precinct
are subject to.
There is only one thoroughfare to
I,niontown and that Is Bond street
The two saloons were located on this
street and school children must pass
hv them either going up town or to
school. 1t is not conducive to the NOR
nj education Of young children to be
compelled to pass by saloons where
profanity and obscenity eminates from
drunken men, who. when under the IN
f,uence Of liquors have no regard for
the feelings Of others. II was tais
fact that has created the antagonism
against the Uniontown saloons and

The Astorian is not antagonisihs
the saloon element In expressing Ns
views on this subject AS is well known.
, II is not favorable to the present local
option law. It believes that saloons
are necessary adjunct to city and
that Il is better to derive a revenue
from this source as long as they are
bound to exist, as TO allow liquors to
be sold and derive no revenue from II.
II is also of the opinion that II Is no
more than right and just that sa-
loon that pays $500 year for the priv
ilege of conducting its business should

in Astoria that sell liquors on the sly

For the moment the woolens with

they are rather too delicate to be prac-
ticable for constant rough wear 1t is
possible that they may not become so
common as the shepherds plaids.
A word as to childrens frocks. Ev-
erything seems to be figured in one
way or another, especially for them.
When plain materials are used they are
often furnished with bands or straps,
yokes, belts and cuffs of checks or
mixed ones. Here again the checks are
to prevail. In fact, big and little, old
and young, are taken with checks. At
this rate, unless the tide turns, checked

trimmed with plain material and all
plain costumes trimmed with checked
materials. will be as plentiful as that
dangling green veil Of sickening .mem-
DRY a couple of years ago.
Look out for the style that is a craze
in the early spring. 1t is the one to be
done to death by June. Plaids are
used in the same way as checks, but
are not quite SO popular. Many Of the
grown-up gowns that have checked
waists and plain skirts or vice versa,
have suspenders of one shape or an
other which match the skirt These
suspenders are a PRETTY style. There
is way Of running them over the belt
in the back in becoming little tabs over
the top of the skirt.
Pique is back in favor with the
linens, and will be as much used as the
latter for summer frocks for children
and adults. A great deal Of embroid-
cry and lace are employed on summer
dresses. and chemisettes and guimps
are as important in a mothers ward
robe as guimpes are in her little daugh-

perhaps none who has held his office
with so much reluctance as Mr.. John
Hay. secretary of state. During the
Mckinley administration the rumors Of
Mr.. Hays resignation were as regular
as the tides and after every announce
ment that he would retire from the
cabinet came the news that owing to
the persuasion Of the president Mr..
Hay had reluctantly consented to re-

ment. The same state Of agairs has
prevailed since President Roosevelt
has been in the White house. Again
rhe rumor is current and this time it
Is thoroughly believed that no amount

TO return to his office: Before he left
Eor his European trip ne wished to re-
sign and In this he was supported by
his family who believe that owing to
his feeble health he. should put aside all

reason for his retirement also but when
cone considers that there are other men
of sixty-seven and more doing capable
and effective work in the government
