The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1905-08-19

The Oregonian's simple answer" to
the query why this degeneracy y:"-
anent the publicity accorded the Tag
CART case through its columns-is quite
the most amusing explanation we have
yet read, not because the question at
hand is not sufficiently serious to re-
quire studious comment, but because the
Oregonian apparently believes this lame
excuse, which strongly hints it is neces-
sary for a metropolitan newspaper to
print matter so lascivious as that des.
criptive of the Taggart proceedings in
order to retain its patronage, will be
swallowed by its constituents. The Ore
gonian heads its comment "An Ineyi.
table Consequence" and then goes on to
show that a yellow newspaper pub
lished by "group Of very pious people"
is responsible for the whole thing. We
presume the Sunday Mercury is referred
to, giving the proprietors of that weekly
the benefit of the doubt, because we can
not. in any way, associate the Journal
with piety. 1t may be. however, that
we are in error. Notwithstanding it is
difficult to bring ourselves to believe the
Oregonian has fallen from the high perch
upon which it has squatted for decade,
preserving dignity and expounding the
principles of high morals and lofty
ideals, nor can we believe that this staid
daily newspaper recognizes competi-
TOR in the Journal; in fact, we still
labor under the impression that the
Journal Is not doing business. "These
journals" continues the 0regonian--in
way of explaining why it stoops to
profigacy-"are pitched on a low grade
or basis, in many ways or features. The
0regonian must meet them or 60
out of business. But the Ore.
gonian is not going out of busi7
ness. 1t will not descend to their depths,
hut il will print clean versions of ,stor.

The Los Angeles Express admits that
financing the scheme TO bring water
from the Owens river valley is yet
unsolved problem, though it optim-
isticaIly declares that all monetary diff
cuIties will be cleared away. Accord
i1g to its latest assessment, Los
Angeles has a borrowing capacity of
S23.OO0,0OO; but the city is already car.
rying bonded debt of S5.0OOO00, and
hence its further borrowing capacity is
limited to slS,OOOOOO. The estimated
cost Of the Owens river scheme is $23,-
100000. The question of where the
money is to come from rs still unan-
swered.

THE THINGS l MISS.

An easy thing, 0 Peter divine,
To thank Thee for these gifts of Thine;
For summers sunshine, winters snow,
For hearts that kindle, thoughts that
glow
But when shall / attain TO this
To thank Thee for the things | miss! :
For all young fancy's early CLEANS
The dreamed-of joys that still are
dreams,
Hopes unfulflled and pleasures known
Through Others fortunes, not my own,
And blessings seen that are not given,
And ne'er will be this side Of Heaven.
Had /, too, shared the joys see,
Would there have been Heaven for
me?
Could have felt thy presence near
Had / possessed what ! held deari
Ny deepest fortune, highest bliss,
Have grown, perchance, from things ]

Sometimes there comes an hour of calm;
Grief turns to blessings, pain to balm;
A Power that works ebove my will
Still leads me onward, upward still;
And then my heart attains to this
To thank Thee for the things ! miss

NEW YORK BLIZZARD.
Not in Years Has the City Ex-
perienced Such a Storm.
Nine inches of Snow ParaIyzed Traffic
There Were Seven Deaths,
Several Injured and Untold
Misery to the Poor.

New York, Jan. 5.-Not in several
years has New York been visited by
storm of such proportions as that
which commenced Tuesday and con-
tinued until early Wednesday. Nine
inches of snow fell, paralyZing traffic
and the marked drop in the tempera
ture brought untold suffering to the
city's poor. The blizzard caused sew
en- deaths in New York and vicinity,
while many persons, overcome by the
cold, dropped to the street, some of
them receiving fractured bones. The
storm began with an icy Sleet, which
stuck to car rails and caused a speedy
abandonment of railroad and trolley
schedules. The sleet covered the side
walks and streets with ice and rem
dered them almost impossible. Scores
of horses fell and many were so badly
injured that they had to be killed.
A fine snow succeeded the sleet and
aided by the wind soon piled up drifts
that shut off many suburban points
from the city.
At O'Clock Wednesday morning the
mercury registered 10 degrees above
zero and continued in that vicinity all
day.
The drifts caused milk famine and
only a small percentage of the usual
amount of milk was delivered in the
city. Milk trains on the various rail-
roads were held up by snow banks.
Owing to the inability of small gro
GERS and coal dealers to get supplies,
they ran short and put their wares up
TO famine prices. Great suffering re-
suited in the poorer districts from this
action.
The decentralization of the surface
car service played havoc with those
going to business. The elevated trains
ran infrequently, throwing the bulk of
the traffic from the upper districts of
the city to the subway Even the un-
derground road did not escape the
storm. At the Times Square station
snow drifted in, forming a drift five
feet high and it was impossible for
people to use the station until the
snow had been cleared away.
1t is estimated that the storm will
cost New York City Railroad Co. over
100000 General Manager Oren Root,
jr., of the road, said it was the worst
Storm his company had had to contend
with for ten years.
Though the residents of Manhattan
had hard time, their trials were in
significant compared with residents in
the Bronx and Brooklyn. The whole
transportation system in the Bronx
broke down just when the morning
travel was at it's height and people
were compelled in many instances to
tramp miles to the nearest 81" station.
All the surface lines were tied up.
The storm paralyzed traffic in the
country districts of Staten Island. In
many places the snow drifts were very
deep and several trolley cars were
stalled all night between Richmond
and New Dorp. Small buildings in
various parts of the island were blown
down by the gale.

HUSBAND AND WIFE.
Pathetic Meeting Between Mr..
and Mrs. Chadwick.
The Former Released on Bond-The
Creditors of the Woman File an
Amendment to Original Bank
ruptcy Petition.

Cleveland, O., Jan. 2.-Unheralded
and unembarrassed by crowd Of the
curious, the home coming of DR.. Lee
roy S. Chadwick was in diametric
contrast to the arrival of his wife
three weeks ago. Both were under
the charge of the law but under wide
ly different circumstances.
A bond provided Saturday evening
by Attorney Virgil P. Kline and At
torney Dawley was at the Jail on the
arrival of DR.. Chadwick and he was
soon released.
After the pTeliminaries in the sher-
ifs Office, DR.. Chadwick was escorted
by Sheriff Barry to the fourth floor
of the women's ward, where his wife
is held a prisoner The meeting be-
tween the two was pathetic in the ex-
IRENE. Mrs. Chadwick arose when
she heard the steps in the corridor
and fell in her husbands arms when
she recognized him. Both broke
down and wept cOnvulsively for sew
eral minutes while clinging to each
other, the sheriff attempting meah-
while to console them.
DR.. Chadwick has lost his all in the
operations of his wife and the large
independent fortune of his only child
has been swept away. Sufficient rea-
son, it would seem, for some show OF
hardness on his part. Mrs. Chadwick
tried to Undue him with the thought
of her innocence of any wrOngdoing.
His only response to these pleas was
81 hope So"
The troubles into which both have
been plunged were thoroughly discuss
ed. The wife told the story interspers-
ed by violent fits of weeping in which,
at times, Dr. Chadwick joined. There
were no apparent evasiOns, but there
was a constant cry of Trust me, trust
me- on the part of the woman.
Cleveland, o., jan 5.-CreditOrs of
Mrs. Chadwick filed an amendment to
their original petition in bankruptcy
against her in the United States dis
trict court. 1t is averred that Mrs.
Chadwick committed several acts Of
bankruptcy shortly after the begin
ming of her financial troubles. The
first of these acts to be complained of
was the granting to the Savings and
Deposit bank of Elyria, O., $4,000
chattel mortgage on the contents of
the Chadwick homestead. The petit
tiOning creditors say that this consti-
tuted a preference of the banks
claims.
1t is further declared that Mrs. Chad
wick rented a safety deposit box at q
Cleveland bank in the name of Daniel
Pine, her brotheT-in-law. 1t is claimed
that at that time she placed a package
Of valuable securities in the box and
on December l, the package was sent
to her in New York.
This act is complained of on the
ground that it was done for the pur-
pose of tconcealing and removing a
part of her assets with intent to de-
fraud her creditors"
