Clifton was startled yesterday even
ing by the announcement that the
body of Abry Warden had been
found in his room in the Fallon
house, in a partially decomposed con-
dition. Mr.. and Mrs. Fallon had been
away for few days and returned in
the evening, and while opening up
the house the body was discovered.
Justice Neff impanneled a coroner's
jury, which made an Investigate ton
and decided that deceased came to
his death by a gun-shot wound fired
by himself. The pistol, from which
one shot had been fired, was still
clasped in one hand. Deceased was
a blacksmith, and on Monday he
worked for Reece Webster. From
the condition of the body it is sup
posed that the act was committed
Monday night or Tuesday morning.
No cause can be assigned for the
deed.

of soft and sunlt weather that fell to

There seems to be little doubt that
the Chinese government is earnestly
irving to discourage and to suppress
anti-foreign demonstrations by the
people; but in 50 vast and 50 decentral-

one. The part of reason and of justice
is however, for foreign countries not to
embarrass but rather to aid and sus-

able efforts. 1t would not be for the
good of the world to have another Boxer
outbreak or to have the Chinese dynasty

ASToRIA'S THIRD PARTY.

The organization OF the Labor Union
lists of this city into declared polite d
formation, with the equally candid eN-
preston OF their purpose to comp i
recognition of their plans and desires,
notably along the line of municipal
ownership, is, of itself important
enough to invite general consideration
and prompt recognition. And if, as is
claimed by some. it is another Demo
cratic project to aid them in yaulting
into the political saddle Of Clatsop. it
is entitled to more than passing notice,
at least at the hands of the Republicans,
At a iuncture of thi, sort every move
ment of the kind is under suspicious
scrutiny and the Municipal Ownership
League is not liable to escape searching
inquiry as to its real independence and
separate purposes. There is absolutely
no reason why it should not take its
place as a genuine factor in the local
political world upon it, own, special and
independent basis, and the Astorian will
give it honest and friendly welcome;
but if it is to be engineered into al
lance and action by the Democratic
leaders. then, --?
