THE CHARTER OF 1907.

IL is hoped By everyone concerned
that the new charter Of Astoria will
be the best in the Land in the way Of
organic municipal Law. That it will
provide amply for the better husband
ing of her resources, iinaneial and ma.
terial; that II will offer the last and
best methods for her expansion aud
adornment; that IL win be carefully
simply and honestly drawn in behalf
Of every civic advantage applicable
here, and that It will be 50 plain that
everyone outside the legal profession
may read, construe and apply Il easily
and comprehensiyely. But, We say
again, none of these things will be ap.
parent in the new bill, IL lawyers and
politicians are to dominate its framing
We want to make orr position plain
ON this head, 80 If IL shall be necessary

BUSINESS FIRST.

The commercial instinct hnds anoth-
er fullsome expression in the disaster
that has oyertaken the Valencia and
her eight score people. Every master
mariner of this day and time, has one
supreme edict behind him that super
cedes every provision cf charter, chart
and rule Of the road at sea, and that
is "TDdEr. This is the first essential,
and must be observed if every man and
thing on earth is sacrificed. A fast
ship takes on added value with every
minute she saves her owners in transit,
and her captain is supposed to keep
this eyerlastingly in mind. A charted
coast, well lighted, equippel with every
facility for live.saving, spared and
buoyed and marked, hedged like a
country lane, is all right for the
"wind. jammer" and the "drosher', but
the crack steamship must ignore them
all if one precious moment may BE-
husbanded. 1t is the cardinal decree
of transportation ailoa. and ashore,
and hundreds of thousands of lives pay
annual tribute to its observance. A
lifetime Of experience at sea offers no
justification nor alternative for this
insane and inyulnerable code OF "busi.
ness, and it is time Congress should
take a hand in the matter and enact
laws that shall not be disregarded.
Give a steamer her time limit; put
mechanical register on board under
government seal anu e-taDllsh I'M
mense penalties for its violation. Do
something that sball reduce this con.
tinual and dreadful destruction Of
human life. This Is all beyond the
exigencies of weather conditions. They
have their place in the final calcula.
tions incident to such 'catastrophes
That goes without saying. But the
primal cause for ninety per cent Of the
disasters at sea and on railroads i
found in the adherence to this craze
for "time', and the inaniq should be
abated by some power equal to the
task.
