BAR COMES FIRST.

No matter what railroad comes down

no matter what interest absorbs the
one already on the south bank of the
same great stream; no matter what
the great city OF Portland
may have; no matter how long these
big, portentious projects may be defer.
red; the paramount fact exists for.
ever that they are dependent upon the
channel Of water traversing the bar of
the Columbia river: Portland would be
helpless with a 10 foot river and a %
foot bar, and equally impotent with
40 foot bar and % foot river while
Astoria can, and will. live with either,
and flourish abundantly with the latter.
Ergo, for the great good of Oregon,
Portland and Astoria, there must be a
40 foot bar and 40 foot river. Astoria
has day in the court of development
and the docket may be sounded sooner
than some people think.

today. and is becoming less indispensable
to men whose early training was in
terwoven with its preepts and whose
moral natures were predicated upon its
high code. Its influence is not ignored
in downright fashion for the reason
that few men are willing TO admit they
are absolutely weaned from the sacred
prestige and power TO which they owe
so much, but there is a growing disposi.
tion to put it in the second or taird
place of personal consideration and make
il subservient TO the grosser and more
exacting things of life, and this idea
leads to the correlative proposition that
the church must modernize itself; must
keep pace with lie strange and almring
facts and impressions that are pro.
jecting themselves into the lives and
passions of men each succeeding day.
1t must put itself upon the plane of
comaradiery that now inspires most OF
the organizations into which men are
now grouping themselves for the pu.
poses of common benefit, aid, comfort
and amusement.

ANIMUS, ALL THE SAME.

The summoning of United States SEN
ator Charles W. Fulton, as a witness in
the federal circuit court, in the Jones
land.fraud trial, was not the simple
thing il looked to be. The senator
waived the prerogative of his Office to
refuse to enter court in that or any
other capacity, and did his simple duty
as good citizen.
But there was an animus behind the
subpoena that is as dirty as it was fruit
less. There are certain people, alleged
politicians, who have fairly itched to in
yolve the Astoia man in the pending
land-fraud cases and to besmirch him
by intimation born of his slightest con-
nection with the cases or the people at
bdi ii tHt NOuiA.
When he wrote the land department
at Washington asking that Jones' claims
be expedited he believed in Jones. Jones
had been county judge and county clerk
of Lincoln county and stood well gen.
orally and the senator, as a servant of
the people, put his name to letters and
endorsements in that relation, as any
other representative would do, as
friend and fellow citizen would do. who
was in place to perform a signal ser.
vice.
God be thanked there is one man in
national life, from Oregon, whose mantle
is not, and cannot be, tarnished.

OREGON IN CONGRESS.

One Of the weightiest problems in Ore.
gon politics just now is to know who
are TO be in congress with United States
Senator Charles W. Fultons He is good
for a huge task; this is admitted on all
sides. But he is not superhuman and
the men holding the congressional pre-
rogative from Oregon just now, aside
from the senator named, will not have
the weight and prestige they once en-.
joyed with the committee on appropria-
tions. There is a grave juncture here,
and the state and her uncompleted and
un-initiated projects for internal i'm
provement, must suffer without the
larger representation. Perhaps, there
is no precedent governing the situation,
to its relief; perhaps, if there was, Gov.
ernor Chamberlain would avoid it, or
at the best, so employ it as to nullify
the effect desired; perhaps-; well
it is up to Mr.. Fulton, so be it. His the
glory, and Astoria's, the reflex renown.

HE WHO FORGETS.

There is something semicontemptible
in the readiness of the ordinary man
who attains to extraordinary wealth, to
abandon the sphere of action in which
his wealth was wrought, and fly to New
York or some other great center, and
devote his accumulations TO the public
and private treasures of his new home
place. Ii is all very well TO say ne
seeks new and higher advantages for
his family, broader schooling for his
children and larger social influences for
his woman-kind. That is rot, pure and
simple; if he remained in the place
with which he was familiar to its last
person and institution he would by
careful direction OF his money
and affairs, rise to point of in.
fluence and station impossible to him in
the metropolis he flies to, and he could
carry his family with him IN the ascend
ancy he achieves; his boys and girls
could be sent to the choicer schools and
greater colleges, and return home to
honors they never reach, ordinarily, in
the crowded city to which they are TAX
en- as hostages to the Moloch of the
Multitudes. If he were the right kind
of man he would not depart from the
place and the companions to whom he
owes everything, but would stay among
them to prove his real worth and graft.
tude, and to help others along the same
lines that led him to prosperity and the
happiness that should go with it.

P0STOFFICE FIGURES.

Preliminary figures on the operations
of the postofiice department for the fs-
cal year ended June 80 shows that its
business was greater in volume and its
receipts larger by 100000 than in
any year since the establishment of the
government; the postage stamps, wrap
pers, envelopes, postal cards and other
mailing devices disposed of during the
year numbered 7,7O4,9S2,l65 and they
brought in a revenue of Sl4l. .4S6, ,4S3;
and the money order transactions in.
volved the handling of about 81 900, ,000,.
600 of "other peoples money an in.
crease OF 20 per cent from the previous
year. Surely, the United States gov.
ernment is "in business" fast enough.
and this postal business would easily
be profitable were it not for the rural
free-deliyery service. a branch of the
departments activities that absorbs
more money than all the profits derived
from operating our New York postoffice
and those of other large cities. Still,
applications for the extension of this
service get prompt attention and in most
instances are granted; while New York
City has TO fight for every dollar that
is granted her for the improvement of
her postal service and too often loses
her case. The puchase of a site for
her new postofiiee hasn't yet been com.
pleted after nearly four years of negOti.
alton. The rural free-delivery service
is at least convenience to not a few
people and means of popular eduea-
tion as well; but il is a discouraging
fact that profit producing offices have TO
sustain it while they are themselves
neglected. This is presumably one Of
the penalties that must be paid by
greatness and success.

Two ladies are said to have been
mobbed in America who went out to
shop In such vast crinolines that they
could hardly get through the shop
doors. / do not know which is the
greater nuisance to others. a lady
putting out her petticoats like an in
fiated balloon or one wearing long
train. i am inclined to think the latter,
for the lady occupies more space. What
grace or beauty there is in a train
trailing after woman l have never
understood. A peacock has a fine tail
conferred on him by nature. But when
he wants to show it off the feathers
are stiffened and form fan. The bird
Is not so silly MS to suppose that he
would add to its adornment by drag
ging his tail limp behind him. Posi-
bly,, however, were the lady peacocks
adorned with tails they would do this.

Concerning College Athletics.

There are certain general principles
that ought to be kept in mind. One
Of them is that professionalism, if it
be honestly admitted, is not an i'm
moral thing. The wrong is in play ing
the professional as an amateur and in
trying to make yourself believe that
your professional is an amateur. This
is hypocrisy Of very odious kind, and
its influence on the young men in our
colleges is deplorable. Though honest
and openly avowed professionalism is
not immoral, 1t is, we believe fatal to
true college sport, for II you admit
that it is proper you destroy absolutely
all healthy interest in college contests.
IL an athletic association may hire a
star halfback, why may it not hire q
whole eleven to do nothing except play
football? OF course if any degree OF
professionalism be admitted there is no
reason why this should not he done.
But games played by such men would
not be college games in any decent
sense Of the word.-Indianapolis News.
