SPEED, AND GREED.

The most superficial analysis Of con-
ditions in America, today, leaves the
thinker with the conviction that, as a
whole, this people is profoundly addicted
to two peculiar ambitions, speed, and
greed. The latter is admittedly the main
cause of the former. The get-rick-quick
theory is not the distinctive character.

All the elements of caution, safety

Although most of the blame attached
to Secretary Loeb for happenings con-
nected with or concerning President
Roosevelt is known by him, and by
everybody else, to be humorous. or at
least intended to be, he has grown sen

Whether this is because he lacks the
sense of humor deponent saith not, but
anyway that is said to be the principal
reason why he will not accompany the
President on the Louisiana bear.hunt.

The policy may be alright. but we be-

SOUARELY IN THE FIELD.

Portland might as well make up her
mind that before another IL months roll
round Astoria viii be squarely in the
field for a share of the maritime COM
merce of Oregon and the Northwest. In
deed, she has made up her mind to this
long ago. and gave sharp testimony OF
her conviction when the Port of Colum-
bia bill was framed up, sneaked through
the legislature, and fell to pieces before
the inquisitorial handling of the supreme
court.
None know better than the business
men of the metropolis that this port is
infinitely the best on the upper coast
and that sooner, or later, it must be
utilized, for all it is worth. in the cheap
ening of marine freights. hence, and
hither. 1t has been the one living dread
of Portlanders, for years and years, and
the approaching realization but accen'
tuates the alarm. The wonder is, she
does not do, of her own volition, and at
her own cost, what she threatened to do
by means of the law alluded to: Buy a
fleet of tugs, train new group OF bar
pilots, deepen the liz miles of two nv
ers between her and the sea, and make
her last stand for the business.
Whether she does this, or not, she will
ALWAYS command the situation and the
commerce, here; because, she is the prin-
ciple depot for Oregon in all such mat
ters, and among the greatest in the
Northwest, and cannot be dislodged. II
is right and proper that she should have
and hold this position as long as there
is no other city or port to challenge hel
supremacy. We have always conceded
this ,as stoutly as We have maintained
our right to be the seaport OF the Co
lumbia Basin. But the inevitable law
of economy, despatch, and safety vii
prevail, in the end, to make Astoria tn
chief sea-gate and distributing point 10
the coming and going cargoes OF tn
whole territory.
The Oregonian's futile efforts to mis-
lead its readers by misquoting thi
paper, and by quoting such mere word
and sentences as can be distorted to it
purposes, has no bearing on the rea
issue; the day for keeping Astoria i
the background has passed, and We mus
be reckoned with, for all time to conn
on this big, and fundamental, lay-ou
Things are coming our way and we al
wholly alive to the situation and wi
contest every inch of ground over whic
the engagement is carried. We are Nc
fighting the battle altogether alone, an
the sooner Portland admits this, an
takes her proper place in the new aligl
ment, the better for all concerned.

INVITE A TEST.
T. F. Lawrens Asks Catarrh Sufferers
To Try Hyomei on Their
Guarantee.

T. F. Laurin invites all who suffer
from any form OF catarrhal troubles to
get Hyomei outfit from them with
their absolute guarantee that if it does
not give perfect satisfaction, the money
will be refunded upon request.
There is no other treatment for cat.
arrh that in any way resembles Hymoei.
none that gives such puick curative re-
suits and lasting satisfaction. no medi-
cine that can take its place, none that
can be sold on guarantee like this, to
refund the money unless it cures.
Catarrh is germ disease and can be
cured only by breathing Hyomei, so that
the most remote air cells in the nose,
throat and lungs are reached by its an
tiseptic healing powers. In this way all
catarrhal germs are killed, the irritated
mucous membrane is healed and catarrh
is driven from the system.
This wonderful medicated air treat
ment does not drug and derange the
stomach, but is breathed through little
pocket inhaler that goes with every dol
lar outfit.
The unusual way in which T. F. Lau-
rim sells Hyomei attests his confidence
in the remedy.
