SETTLE IT TODAY!

The regatta committee needs $l50C
more upon its subscription lists in or
der to enter upon the big task of pro-
ducing genuine, old-time regatta. It
must have this money today. The peo-
pie of this city must open up their
hearts and purse-strings within the next
IL hours, or renounce the festival. The
committee is made up of business men
who cannot afford to run back and forth
after individual subscriptions and do the
errand-boy act for days to come; there
must be a generous and prompt recog-
milton of the proposition at once, or they
must relinquish the matter. If Astoria
is to have regatta next month, the
people of Astoria, by their contributions
this day made, will determine. If the
necessary amount is not in sight to-
night, the popular amusement is all off.
Don't wait for the committee to hunt
you up; go after it, with your handful
of dollars, and give the men in charge
of the work, an idea of your purposes.

toni"

STANDING PAT.

ANY bull-headed fool can stand pat
on some plan or platform that suits him
entirely; it takes man and a philo-
sopher to adhere to that which is right
simply because it is right The Presi-
dent is a fine type of the real stand
patter for principle; his honest stead
fastness in turning down the nomina-
ton that might be his next year, is a
case in point, and demonstrates the real
meaning of the term. If he never figures
in the political engagements of the
country again, his example as an au-
dacious and religious champion of things
that are right and good, will keep him
forever in the eye and heart of the ma
ton. Mr.. Roosevelt has builded broad
and stalwart platform for his party to
stand upon in its newer contests, and
all it has to do is to stand pat for the
scale and standard of popular legislation
he has compelled. He was the first to
recognize the growing unrest of the COM
monalty against the overweening sweep
of legislation in favor of the corporate
interests; and the departure he has
wrought must be followed up until
every vestige of ''entrenched power" has
been qualified by minimizing legislation
that shall restore to the people at large,
the rights and privileges that have been
taken from them, or denied them. It is
in the air, this eager demand of the
people for more wholesome and popular
laws, in which thy shall figure; there
need be no mistake about it; the start
has been made by the republican party
in the last session of Congress. Nothing
on earth can defeat it, if it will but
stand pat on such policies and their en-
actment into law. Anything less means
its total and lasting defeat!

THE NEW DEcALoGUE.

The Historian presents its readers tn
following new ten commandments a,
especially revised 10 At the mode q
doing business which the large catalogu,
houses have with their unwary patrons
These rules as taken from mail.ordel
house journal, and though prepared b,
an imaginative writer, when carefully
chewed and digested, you win find that
there is 10 ounces OF truth to every
pound of them;
|. You shall sell your farm products
for cash wherever you can, but not IL
us; We do not buy from you,
?. You shall apply to your nearest
city to aid you in building good roads
so you may conveniently get the goods
from the depot that you buy from us,
for we do not build country roads.
g. You shall buy church bells and in :.
terror church fixtures from us and for
ward the money in advance, for this is
our business method and you shall coll
lect from the business men in your
vicinity as much money as you can for
the benefit of your churches. Although
We get more money from you than they
do, still it is against our rules to donate
money for building far-away churches,
4. You shall buy your tools from us
and be your own mechanic, in order to
drive the mechanics from your vicinity,
for We wish ii so.
5. You shall induce your neighbor to
buy everything from us, as we have
room for more money--the less money
there is left in your community, the
sooner we can put your local merchants
out of business and charge you any
prices We please.
Q. You shall look often at the beau.
tiful prices in our catalogues, so your
wishes will increase and you will send
in big order, although you are not in
immediate need OF the goods, otherwise
you might have some money left to buy
necessary goods Of your local merchants.
!. You shall have the mechanics that |
repair the goods you buy from us book
the bill, so you can send the money for
his labor to us for new goods, otherwise |
he viii not notice our influence.
0. You shall have the mechanics |
that repair the goods you buy from us
book the bill, so you can send the money |
for his labor to US for new goods, other
wise he will not notice oour influence.
10. Yu shall, in case of accident,
sickness or need. apply to your local
dealers for aid and credit, as we do not |
know you.
The more men learn each is depend
ent to greater or less degree upon the |
other the better will be the results. No
man can live unto himself. Each must !
have the help and the good win of
others. Seeking to ''beat and down the
Town the other" can but result disas-
-rously in the end to society as 4
whole. Help, not hinder. 1t isn't en-
mites which help in life, it is friend
'hips and devotion to fair play and
Justice that brings final good results.

AFTER THE LUMBERMEN.

The government is going after the
alleged lumber trust. All right; if there
is anything this country wholly ap-
proves of, it is the running down of 4
trust, and its subsequent adjustment to
the general requirements of fair ani
decent business. If the lumbermen have
oyerreached themselves and are doing
the dishonest thing by the people, and
the government, jack them up with a
round turn and compel recognition of
law and right. They are as amenable
as any of the rest of the big, protected
interests, to the equities of the day, and
they cannot hope to escape.

NOT AN ANARCHIST.
August Rosenberg Turns Out to be An
American Miner.

East Greenwich, r. L., July 11.--A
brace on the locomotive drawing the
Colonial Express, south bound, from
Boston to Washington, over the New
York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad.
broke just after the train passed
through this place at noon today and for
over half q mile the engine plowed its
way along the sleepers, dragging its six
coaches filled with passengers with 1t.
Had the engineer stopped his tram
when the brace gave way the coaches
would have been telescOped and plung-
ed down an embankment 20 feet high
No one was injured, but the engine
was completely ruined. When the ac-
cilent happened the train was speed
ing along at the rate of so miles; an
hour
The express had just passed beyond the
ward limit here when the accident oc-
Cured The first knowledge Of the trouble
came to Engineer Bowman when he felt
the violent ioltng of the locomotive, IN
dicating that it had been derailed. In
stantly he thought that if he threw over
the lever some of the coaches surely
would he telescoped while the whole
train would be in danger of rolling down
the steep erbankment. For more than q
half mile the big machine plowed its way
along furrowing the roadbed and the
sleeperS. The coaches did not leave the
rails and few OF the passengers knew
Of the accident until the train came grad
ually to a stop. AS soon as the momen-
tum of the train was overcome the en-
pine toppled over, blocking the north
bound track and delaying traffic for
some time The point at which the cras
came to a standstill was but short dis
lance from Potowanut drawbridge.
The passengers on learning of the ac-
cideut and the cool headed action of the
engineer gave lavish praise to the man.
| ARRANGEMENTS were made to transport
those on board back to Providence on
trollavs and send them forward ON the
next express.

WANTS TO DIE.
French Murder Refuses to Ask for
Communication of Sentence.

New York, July IA n cable dis
patch to a morning paper from Paris
says:
Il want to be guillotined. They con-
demned me to death and they shall eX-
ecute me. I'll have none of their par
dons. There is no reason for revis-
ion OF my sentence. Paris has not seen
an execution in 10 years, and I'm going
to give them the sight free
This declaration was made by Pierre
AGam 10 the prison authorities and
lawyers who were trying to persuade
him 10 appeal for q communication of
his death sentence for murder. He has
resisted the persuaSions pcrsiStently
for three weeks and clamorS to have
his head chopped off, vet the authori-
ties do not comply with his wish.
The position is a curious one. AS the
law stands, it prescribes that eXecu-
tions shall be public. but since the gull
lotine was removed some years ago
from the notorious Place De La Ro-
quette the local officials everywhere
have successfully resisted the attempts
to secure new site and the guillotine
has lain idle in a shed, the officers of
justice not venturing to offend any part
of the city by insisting upon it's erec-
ton. They have consequently persuad-
ed every person condemned to death 10
appeal for a Communication, which has
been forthwith granted.
Adams unprecedented refusal creates
a difficulty. A public execution invari-
ably leads to a disgusting carouse ana
misbehavior by the scum of the city,
and the establishment of the guiilotine
anywhere without the assent of the au-
thorities representing the respectable
citizens would inevitably arouse anger.
Hence the reluctance to carry out death
sentences.
Bills are under discussion alternately
legalizing private executions and aboi-
ishing capital punishment, and Adams
attitude may lead to the passing of one
or the other.

The wo,nan's head was crushed with

the murderer He was seen running
from the woman'S room Few minutes
before the fire was discovered. He in
stantly left the hotel, carrying two

The police have been unable to trace
him.
The murdered woman arrived at the

A few hours later Wilson arrived

theory of the police that this was the
intention of the murderer in order tC
conceal his crime.
