GOOD CHEER AND ENERGY.

Let everyone of the committeeman in
charge of the forthcoming regatta, go
to the meeting at the Flavel building
this evening with an open purpose OF
accomplishing all there is to do by way
of making the twelfth annual regatta a
jim-dandy from beginning to end. There
is much to do, and less time than usual
to do it, but that need make no differ
ence; all that can be made up in activity
and quick dealing in the interests of the
festival-there are ample funds, practi-
cally $4,000, to do with; and little
cheerfulness viii go an immense way in
perfecting the task ahead. Discourag-
ing comment and half-hearted actions
are not wanted, nor needed. 1t is up to
the city to do her best, now that she has
ordained the holding of the regatta; and
those charged with the performance of
the work must have the CHEEKY good
will Of all concerned. Crouch and sue
cess are not SYNONYMOUS terms. espec-
ially in a matter that demands the
spontaneity and energy of the public,
therefore, get in, all hands, and make it
a ringer, buster, hot show, any old
thing but failure!

CIGARETTE STANDARDS.

The cigarette has at last become a
thing of Importance in the business life
of the country; it has become stand
ard for measuring the men who use 1t,
and the result is inimical to the man;
and beneficial to the business, by keep
ing him out of it. This is just as it
should be. A man paltry enough to
yield to the miserable little smoke
stick, is too paltry to handle anything
larger. 1t is an apt standard, and a
reliable. And in thus affording an exact
criterion for the ascertainment Of a
mans general calibre, it has done the
only thing to its credit in all its fool
history.

MTS AN ILL WIND, ETC.,

Hill and Hartman have another fierce
quarrel afoot, with the Milwaukee in
terests deeply involved. They are at
it hammer and tongs and somebody is
going to benefit largely by the contest
that RACES between these giants. If it
only results in the quickening of the
northshore projects and the utilization
OF the mouth of the Columbia as a
terminal, this city and country will
gladly hail the cause, abet the row, and
add what fuel it may. May good for
tune speed all such fallings-out as
theirs.

Happiness is brave just as gloom Is
cowardly. 1t has been said that with
the right amount of faith we might
move mountains. Surely we can move
the mountains of dependency from our
lives and erect in its place the temple
of happiness.

A woman's paper claims to have

fine and so large that those who should
be her partners cease to be dancing men

lous beside her.
