THAT FIvE-DAY HOLIDAY!

We do not question the expediency Of
Governor Chamberlain's proclamation
declaring five-day holiday for the
banks Of Oregon. since it was petitioned
for by the representative bankers OF the
city Of Portland; but we do feel morally
certain that there is no critical condi.
tion of affairs in this state that war
rants actual apprehension, that the
move was made more to safeguard the
present solid status than to meet any
untoward exigency that is really upon
us. It is an extraordinary proceeding
and appears quite justifable upon either
hypothesis named.
As to Astoria banks, it is held here,
universally, that they are in impregna-
BILE shape, just as they have been for
years, and perfectly able to weather any
sort of stress. They are known to have
a million and half of ready money in
their vaults at this writing, or practi-
calE fifty per cent OF their habillf;
ties; and are each and all in sound ami
wholesome shape. 1t is also known that
the gubernatorial order has not inter-
fered in tie remotest manner with the
markets nor the shipping OF staple pro-
ducts from here and that the banks have
sanctioned the continuance of all COM
mercial engagements and will cover the
situation as it relates to this important
element of business. despite the 100
hour closing manifesto.
Even if conditions were threatening or
perilous, the popular feeling in this city
is absolutely certain of the integrity and
safety of the banks of Astoria. The his
tory of 1923, when but one failure was
recorded here and that covered-in at s.
per cent of outstanding liabilities has
never been forgotten, and serves well as
predicate upon which to found the
public confidence now, when there is in
finitely less to create doubt Or fear.
We believe that when the banks over
the state shall open on next Monday
morning for business, the last and least
reason for this unusual procedure will
have vanished, and the situation will
have 50 cleared itself of ambiguity as to
emphasize the most cheerful opinions
held here, and elsewhere, in regard to it.

A "HUMAN BUG"

Wm. F. Ramshauer, of New York
City, who calls himself "The Human
Bug" entertained a great part of Gin
cinnati and the inhabitants of the Ken
lucky hills with an acrobatic perform
ance on a flag pole recently. Ramshauer
stood on his head, balanced himself on
his feet. swung himself like a flag and
sat cross-legged like a Turk, reading a
newspaper, on the gilded ball that sur.
mounted the 30-foot staff on the min.
story building. Crowds gathered on the
down town streets and on the hills on
the other side of the river and watched
the steepleiack work.
All the while the pole swayed, but the
Human Bug wasn't nervous. 1t was
the first time he wasn't nervous for q
week. He says he is always nervous
when he is down on the ground, and i:
at his case near the clouds. Ramshauel
smokes cigarette, which are supposed
to make people shaky.

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Stage Overturns Killing One Man ani
Injuring Others.

ROSEBURG, Oct. 29.--0ne OF tine most
appalling accidents to be recorded in the
history of the Roseburg Coos Bay stage
lines occurred at about seven o'clock last
Saturday evening near Sheep Ranch, a
stage station about seven miles east OF
Camas Valley on the Alarshfield road.
when the four horses hitched to the
heavy Fento stage conveyance became
frightened and ran away, carrying its
load of human freight at rapid rate
for some distance when the rig, horses
and occupants were dashed over steep
embankment, landing in the river below,
resulting in the killing OF one man al
most instantly while the remainder of
those aboard suffered minor bruises and
cuts. Three OF the horses were killed
outright and the fourth was so badly
manned that it had to be shot soon after.
The illfated stage left this city as
usual at about nine o'clock last Satur-
day morning, having aboard four pas
sengers, few mail sacks and the driver.
After considerable investigation the list
is foun0 to comprise ]. F. Quirk, of San
Francisco; E. W. Page, of Westhope,
North Dakota; /. P. Baldwin, residence
unfortunate man, II. N. Morehouse, re-
unknown and the unfortunate man, T.
\. Morehouse, registered at the Hotel

I. n. MOrehouse who met his death
IN the accident was member of the
commercial Travelling Association. He
was travelling for an eastern crockery
firm through this state.

A MALIGNANT VENGEANCE.

Theodore Roosevelt, President of the
United States, has achieved the bitter
hatred of the high financial pirates of
the country by his policies Of regula-
tion, exposure and public accounting for
their illegal methods, and if any man
thinks this class of people forget, fore
go, or fail of their vengeance in such
cases, he reckons without his host. They
are powerful, adroit, malignant, con-
scienceless and obdurate in the pursuit
of an enemy; and only the masterful
candor and courage of the President has
saved him thus far from open and vio-
lent attack. tt has been recognized,
even in the predatory camp. that what
he has done against the crooked wealth
of the country mas been done in the
name and behalf of the people, and not
for effect or time-serving; and it was
unsafe and manifestly dangerous to at
tack him as less true and forceful men
might have been oyertaken.
But they VIII cruclfy him IN the very
sight of the people, at last, unless the
people rally to him and his doctrines
with the insuperable and logical power
that is theirs and theirs alone There
is already a huge financial conspiracy
afoot to blast him and his program, if
thousand banks and millions of peo-
pie are ruined in the play of the dread
ful scheme, and it will be wrought in
the coming year and at the polls, unless
the monstrous job shall be recognized
and the peril of the moment shall COM
pei Mr.. Roosevelt to enter the lists to
save the nation he stands for In which
event he will be sent back to the ma
tional executorship by a vote unparal-
leled in the history of Republican insti-
tutions. Perhaps it will be better thus,
for then the back of the vast financial
machine will have been broken once for
all, and the way opened up for the for
nation, and inyestiture, of the new and
