This spirit found no expression here;
this idea was not in vogue here and not
single expression of such feeling was
manifest here through the campaign;
the republicans of Clatsop worked shoul-
der to shoulder, with an unity OF purpose
that was good to see, and the press of
this section was absolutely silent on this

INSURANCE IN ASTORIA.

When the news of the dreadful disas-
ter to San Francisco was at its height,
one of the most conspicuous features of
the current intelligence was the prompt
and generous declarations of the great
insurance companies involved there, that
they would meet the situation without
default and do it upon the instant OF
the determination of the losses. The
whole country felt that this would miti-
gate the sum of the tremendous loss,
and was proud of and grateful for, the
spontaneous showing made by the COM
panies. Now, in the cold aftermath,
when the warmth of sentiment has died
down and the chill of the business hour
has come, these same people who were
so ready with their protestations Of
ability and willingness to meet their
direct obligations in the great premise
deliberately, and with insulting avarice,
swing their burden of loss upon the
country at large and compel the disin-
terested property owner everywhere, to
bear the onus of their herculean loss,
and pay the same in twenty-five per
cent advance upon ordinary premium.
cost The sum of insurance evils was not
reached in the embodiment Of the reck-
less depravity of the life companies,
from which the country has hardly yet
recovered; it remained for the fire com
panies to add this shameful expression
of greed and dishonesty to the record
and aecentuate the fast-rising, world
wide conviction that there is absolutely
no corporate honor left. 1t is high
time the people were getting in line
for the adoption of some scheme of mu-
tuality in the conduct of their defences
against death and fire, and the Inaugural
ton of such a policy would meet with
redundant appreciation at this time.
Astoria. with one of the best water
services on the coast, with one of the
smallest records of fire losses in her
class, with the top notch premium rate
in full blast for years past, is cOldly in
formed that she must contribute her
share in the adjustment of this enor-
nous loss with which she had nothing
to do, and all new policies uttered here,
after June lst, are charged with the
coHUIlpuCloh at the ldte VI % per ceh'
above and beyond the old and burden
some rate. The Astorian desires to say,
here and now that its columns are open
for all time to any organized and ac-
credited effort to throw off this imposi-
tion and will contribute in all ways and
at all times to this end.

WaterxilIe Wins Again

The second oratorical contest be-
tween the high school scholars of Wen
atchee and Waterville again resulted
in victory for Waterville. The debate
took place at the Christian church Sat
urday night last. The verdict of the
audience was unanimously in favor OF
the Waterville team, but one of the
judges voted for Wenatchee. The
judges were selected, one by Wenat-
chez, one by Waterville, and one by
the state superintendent. The ques-
tion debated was, Resolved, that the
best and most practicable method of
upbuilding the American merchant ma
rine is by the system of subsidies to
American built ships" Watervile
took the affirmative and Wenatchee
the negative.

CHARLOTTE BLOCK LEASED
Lessee VIII Open First Glass House
About the First of the Year

F. A. Losekamp tells the Echo that
he closed a deal this week with Ed D.
Westbrook Jr. for FIVE year lease of
the upper part of his building.
Mr.. Westbrook will be assisted by
his wife we are told and both have had
experience in the hotel business. They
have made Seattle their home for some
time and formerly lived in Alaska.
Mr.. Westbrook estimates that it will
require seventy dollars to furnish each
room, and as there are nearly thirty
bed rooms it will require about $500 to
furnish the bed rooms and parlors. He
says he will run first-class house and
cater to none but the best trade. The
house will be opened to the public
about the first OF the year.

BRIDGE COMPLETED
Cascade Orchard Ranchers Comments
Using Bridge Monday

F. A Drebis tells US the Cascade Or
chard bridge was completed last Satur-
day. The bridge was completed few
days earlier but the approaches We're
not finished until Saturday.
The distinction OF being the first TO
cross is divided between r. NJ. Baunton
and Mr.. Schneider, both claiming to
have crossed first. Mr. Baunton how
ever was the first to put it to practical
use. He brought sleigh load of pota-
toes in Monday morning for the Leav-
enworth Mercantile Co.
Thus is a patient and long suffering
community at last supplied with need
ed convenience.
The new road on both sides of the
river which connects with the bridge is
said to be in first-class condition. The
completion OF this bridge will certainly
result in many improvements being
made in the orchards next year.

AN EVENING BLAZE
The LeavenwOrth Cafe Destroyed by
Fire Monday

On Monday afternoon, about five
o'clock, fire was discovered in the
frame building adjoining the Overland
Hotel, occupied by McCabe & Co. as &
restaurant. The fire seemed to have
caught between the ceiling and roo
and had gained such Roadway wheI
discovered that there was no hope o
checking it, although in a short time
after the discovery two streams of wa
ter under good pressure were turned
into it, and shortly afterward a third
stream.
Most of the fixtures and supplies In
the restaurant were saved. We are in.
formed that McCabe & Co. had $500 in.
surance on their fixtures and stock.
Charles Plisch, owner of the building,
had $3.50 insurance.
The Overland Hotel, between which
and the building that burned there was
only some eighteen inches of space,
was at no time in danger OF taking fire,
and again demonstrated the superiority
of brick building. The damage to the
Overland will not, we are informed, ex-
coed $50. The Bloom & Tuck building,
a two-story frame on the west side of
the restaurant some forty or fifty feet,
was only prevented from taking fire by
the use of water Had it taken fire the
Lobby saloon, the Samantha saloon and
rooming house, a small frame building
and the Clifford House would all GER
tainly have been burned, resulting in
loss of from $4,000 to $4,000. We
mention these facts to show how i'm
portant it is to have water in the event
of fire.
Our fire fighters, while not thoroly
organized, did excellent good work,
both in protecting the Overland Hotel
and in preventing the Bloom building
from taking fire. The water pressure,
too, was shown to be amply sufficient
for fire protection. The top of the
Bloom building, "a feet high, was easily
reached with stream Of water.
The one trouble that the fire fighters
now have is in coupling the hose to the
fire MIGRANTS. The fire hydrants are
made for three-inch coupling and the
hose is only two and half inches, thus
it necessary to use a reducer on
the hydrant coupling. These reducers
are nothing but small brass rings which
easily get misplaced or lost. If they
can not be found, tho there is an ocean
of water, it cannot be used to fight the
fire. What the town needs is hose and
that is always ready and can
be easily attached to the hydrant.
Another thing that gave the fire
fighters trouble in getting the water on
the fire promptly was mush ice in the
hose, which the water forced into the
nozzle, completely shutting off the flow.
All things considered, though, the
water was gotten on the blaze with
promptness and the boys
did very effective work at this, the first
fire since the installation of our present
gravity water system, and demonstra-
ted that it is worth all the trouble and
money that it cost.
