Political Gossip

Lansing dispatches state that a con-
ference was held in that city Wednes-
day to discuss the senatorial situation,
the avowed purpose being to complete
an organization which will effect the
election of Railroad Commissioner At
wood. 1t is said Mr.. Atwood hesitates
shout announcing his candidacy, feeling
that he is undnr obligations to those
whose interests might be in conflict
with his candidacy. 1t was limited that
the state officArs could have wide in
fuence in the election if they were
unitedly TO- one man. 1t is under
stood that Secretary of State Prescott
was suggested, the gathering being op-
posed to any of the avowed candidates for
opposition. Among those present were
Commissioner Atwood, Banking Com
missioner Moore, Secretary Prescott,
Auditor General Bradley, p. H. Kelley,
Sena.-- Charles Smith of the Upper
Peninsula, Deputy Secretary of State
Charles S. Pierce and minor state officers
and members Of the legislature, per-
haps 90 in all Gov. Warner took no
part in the conference.
Rep. Whelan, Hollands candidate for
speaker of the house of representatives,
was III Detroit Monday and was en-
thusiastic in his expressions for an
open ballot in the senatorial caucus of
the Republican legislature. Whelan
was speaker pro tenn, in 1905, and is
generally regarded as the leading can
didate below the str ats for the speak
ership of 1907. THE people have a
right to know how every representative
and senator votes, said Whelan. THE
question is of vital Importance to the
people Of the state and an open ballot
can do no possible harm and perhaps
some good. Detroit Journal
The Bay City Tribune, in discussing
an editorial on the senatorial issue in
the Grand Rapids Herald in reference
to Editor William Alden Smiths propo-
sition that should the eastern part of
tho state fail to agree on a candidate,
tho eastern delegates unite and elect
Candidate William Alden Smith, says
'1f eastern Michigan fails, the question
of tho Herald is pertinent. The Tribune
will cheerfully subscribe to everything
the Herald says of Mr.. Smith, who is a
strenuous and ideal Republican, a use
full and honored public man and citizen.
But eastern Michigan isn't going to
fail so agree this time When the line
UP comes the man who will command
the majority of ballots will step to the
fore"
Tho Kalamazoo Telegraph, in discus
sing the senatorial race says, in part:
Senator Burrows friends in this part
of tho state insist that the successful
man must be an eastern man. They
figure If a western Michigan man is
chosen, it llinjure Burrows chances
four years from now. This is why the
Burrows people are fighting William
Alden Smith so bitterly. But there
are sotne who figure that the bitter
fight now being made against Smith by
tho machine will react strongly in
Smiths favor four years hence. Time
alone will tell The fight. at all events,
promises to be hot one.

AST0RIA'S CHARTER.

The local charter commission is tax.
ing hold of its big task in eommendable
fashion and giving due despatch to the
detail confronting it. 1t is no small
thing to revise faulty charter and the
work done for Astoria in this connection,
should be thoroughly well done. At the
same time, haste is the last quality of
the undertaking. 1t requires thought,
comparison, conformity, clarity, effec-
tiveness; and these things cannot be
impaired in any sort of hurry. Luck
lily, the commission has ample time be-
fore it, and may do excellent work if
the time is utilized and devoted to de-
liberation and consideration insperable
from such engagements. With an abund-
ance Of fine models from which to Gull
the best things in municipal vogue, there
is reason to believe that this city is to
have modern and progressive basic
law; and she needs it badly. The people
have deep interest in the work and
should manifest it by suggesting every
good element they know is lacking
They will have to pass upon the new
charter before it goes up to the legisla-
ture, and they should be certain it con-
tains the best OF everything.

SCHOOLS, AND NERVES.

The recent public structures upon the
prejudicial effect of the school curri-

invited the comment of one Of Astoria's
Oldest and most respected teachers, to
the following effect The main respon-
sibility for the reactionary effects allud-
ed to, lies almost wholly with the par
ents and guardians who fail to regulate
the lives Of the pupils OUT OF SCHOOL
HOURS. The children are indulged in
many ways calculated to injure them; in
ing, dressing, exercise, sleeping, en-
ployment in leisure, hours of home
study, and various other lines of family
habit and appointment. Were these
things so ordered as to spare the child

BANNER APPLE STATE.

Illinois is the banner apple state OF
the Union. This information will be 4
surprise to apple growers generally. as
the opinion has been prevalent that it
was laggard in this direction.
The production by the leading states
is as follows: Illinois 100000 bushels
of apples and 100000 trees; Kansas.
100000 bushels of apples and 100000
trees; Missouri, 100000 bushels of
apples and 100000 trees; Michigan,

ANTI-AUT0 CRAZE.

The anti-automobile craze has not
yet reached Astoria. simply because she
has too many hills, and not enough cars
to talk about. There are but three or
four in the whole community, and the
grades act as barrier to undue speed.
They cannot speed up the hills and dare
not speed down them. The automobile
is, however, one of the things that has
come to stay; it is part and parcel of
the life OF today, and what of offense
it may give in the hands Of irrsspon-
sibles will be forgotten when it shall
be properly adapted to the rules that
say all mediums of safety and con-
yenience in the daily life of man. There
is no use in crying it down; it will
neither down, nor out! The splendid in
vention is but in its incipiency, and the
years will demonstrate it to be one of
the great essentials of human progress,
and the sooner the, better With i'm
provement in the machine will come its
classification to the needs of the peor
man, with abated prices to match, and
once it has passed the stage of luxury,
it will be wonderfully popular, as it
should be. Half of its unpopularity to-
day arises from the almost universal
inability OF the people to own one.
