TURN OF THE TIDE.

1t begins to look as If the ordinary
American Is incapable Of self-gov-
ernment; as If the prescribed condi-
tions were running away from the
prescriptive power; as IL the freest
people on earth were abjectly DOM
mated by the coarest and boldest
systems and men possible to organize
and maintain. San Francisco Is an
apt Illustration OF the extremities to
which the evil has gone; Ruef is the
type of tyranny that is infinitely
worse than anything the American
ever warred against in the open field,
and for the sake Of the Pacific coast
and the country at large, it is hoped
that he and his methods may be
crushed out and down until the mem
ory of them shall be a CALLING re-
proach and bye-word Of destation
In the mouth Of man. San Francisco,
earthquake stricken, fire-riven, strike
distracted, was honorable and honor
ed, but San Francisco, Ruef-stricken,
Is disgraced beyond redemption, save
for an edict and application of law
that shall wipe the arch-thief and his
from the purview of man.
kind. This has been her year Of sor-
row and shame and spoilation, and the

TO SAVE CHILDREN,

The child labor evil Is fast reach
ing degree of Importance when ma
ticnal legislation or at least national
recognition will become imperative.
Laws designed to regulate or restrict
the evil have been passed by almost
every state legislature, but the lndif-
ference or ignorance Of officials sup
posed to enforce the laws renders such
legislation practically imperative.
The trouble has come from lack Of
public interest. The people as a mass
have not understood or appreciated
the real danger TO the nation and to
the individual bound to result from
the working Of mere children for gain
The subject has more In II than SEN
timent: II almost reaches the dignity
Of grave national peril.

Committee has been doing, excellent
work influencing legislation and this

Grover Cleveland and Cardinal Glib
bons are members has to its credit !

AS NEW YORK GOES.


The country looks eagerly for the
election results in New York State
on Tuesday next The old saying
that "as New York goes, so goes the
country" means something this year.
1t is the Presidents State, and the
triumph of democracy there will be
bitterly suggestive of a denial and
reputation of the magnificent work
done by the last congress, and stul-
tifcation of Mr.. Roosevelts own pro-
gram, and service to the country. We,
of the extreme west, are as deeply
interested in the outcome there, as
her nearest neighbor state for her
declaration at the polls next week is
a national matter in its significance.

monalty. If Mr.. Hearst shall be

AsToRIANs RESPONSIBLE.

In the columns Of this paper will
be found the full text Of the proposed
amendments to the charter Of Astoria
There are fifteen Of them, and they
are all significant and have direct
and serious import for the people.
Therefore 1t is the duty of the voter,
and especially the tax-paying voter,
to scrutinize every word and line and
figure, and pass honest judgment on
them, severally and collectively, for
his is the entire responsibility for
their adoption or rejection. II in the
days TO come, they, or any Of them,
shall prove blunders, or impediments
or mere vehicles for political manip-
ulation, the man who voted for them
must shoulder his share of the trouble
whatever 1t may be. Now is the time
to pass judgment. It is up to the
people. 1t is no mere question of men
or politics. But it is an issue Of pol
icies upon which the credit and pros
perity Of the city is predicated and
demands thoughtful and timely in
vestigation, Let nd Astorian shirk
his duty in the case. II there is any
detrimental element in the fifteen
new laws, he must detect 1t and vote
it down.

Of England recalls an interesting ro-
nance. There are not perhaps many
persons who know he is son of the
famous songstress Of the last century,
Jenny Lind, nor is it perhaps widely
known outside the family circle that
his father, Otto Goldschmldt, will. on
Tuesday, enter on his seventy-e eighth

half a century since the famous mu-
sical professor accompanied the swed-

only incident out Of the ordinary in

It strikes US that the people OF this section OF
the State have very personal interest In the
drainage OF the Everglades. II we accept
as true the estimate of Mr. Ingraham of the East
Coast Railway four years ago that they would be
worth at least $50 per acre when drained. The
large land companies now own 100000 acres Of
land assessed at about 81 per acre. Drained these
lands would be worth $165, 100000. and IL then
assessed at onethrd their value, or say $5O.O0O.O0O
l. would mean an addition to the taxable property
of the State of about $45000,000 or as much az
fifteen counties like Walton The very natural re-
suit would be the reduction Of the tax rate over
the entire State. Add to this the increased val
uation of the States property in them, about
100000 acres or $1000.000 in value for schools.
