TIME, THE QUALIFIER.

A friend, who is given to thinking
out the olitical problems OF the day,
and who desires the best OF all things
for his fellows in the way Of govern
mental expedience, said yesterday
that he was convinced that the
continued operation Of such laws as
those imposing Statement No. !, the
referendum and initiative, and the
recall, would, sooner. than later, ut
terly destroy the partisan lite and
and principle among the people and
set up an individualistic sentiment
and action that would develop into
anarchistic type and latitude" He
was not morbid about it and made
plenty OF happy reservations to
qualify the theory; but he was in
earnest both in his conclusion and
his depreciation.
We cannot agree with him, The
vast majority OF our people are pos
sessed OF rational understanding Of
the principles OF popular government
and know that freedom OF act and
is the fundament OF IT.;
that the popular edict, direct from the
people, constitutional and unquestlon-
able always, will be obeyed implic-
itly; while the legislative enactment
framed too often without thought OF
the people upon whom it imposes,
and far too often devised with dan
gerous and ulterior motives, subject
to multitude OF constructions III
the courts OF the land, is living
menace to its own fulhlment; that
while we have had what was deemed
TO be actual freedom under the law,
we have had only that justice that
could be bought and paid for, in the
larger and commoner sense; that
the politicians, the political and cor
porate layers, and the office holders,
of the nation, have abused and
warped the law in fact, and spirit,
until it is without semblance OF the
fixed, organic and dependable re-
lance; that the laws OF the people
alluded to, will, in course OF time,
wipe out the abuses and rouse the
wider and nobler conformity so es-
sential to popular peace and happi-
ness; that many may think out the
terms and text and effect OF the new
mandates by himself, but when 1t
comes to placing them upon the
tablets of the nation or the state, he
is but a unit in a magnificent and
coherent expression OF popular pow
er and righteous regulation, a real
ization too remote from anarchistlc
license and independence to be con-
sidered for an instant.
Time, amendment, simplihcation,
and broad obedience to the law, will
make the last OF them a bulwark OF
strength and dependence, and that IS
what popular government MEANS II
it means anything at all !

SPECIAL, AND SPEcIoUS.

Naturally the Portland shipper
pleads the doctrine OF the ship
meeting the rail as far inland as pos
sible; it is right that he should use
it for all it is worth to him; no one
blames him for his championship Of
the, to him, convenient and appropri-
ate opinion and program. But that
does not make it the true and essen
tial precept of quick and economical
transportation, however aptly it may
apply to a few Of the worlds great
depots. If it were the universal rule,
there would be no sea ports in the
commercial sense; the enforcement OF
the principle would have drawn the
sea commerce of the world to the
farthest accessible inland points
everywhere, and no rails would have
sought the coast markets at all.
1t is an excellent rule where the
topography of the country at the sea
board prohibits the founding Of a
town or port, or makes the con-
struction of railway thereto i'm
practicable and overwhelmingly
costly; but such conditions are ex-
ceedingly rare, and more rarely in
superable. The truth of the business
is the ship, as a deep sea carrier pure
and simple, was never intended to
90 inland her own length farther than
absolutely necessary; and the ship
owner the world over deprecates
every mile OF such traffic as menace
to his property; every railway bear
ing to the seaboard is unfinished until
its rails touch the docks at salt
water; and the meeting point of car
and ship is the plain and common
line between land and sea- All pleas
to the contrary are special, and
specious, and no usage nor condition
can justify nor qualify them, and es-
pecially, when the the argument is
offered in such a case as pends be-
tween Portland and Astoria.
If the IS square miles OF debateable
harborage belonging to Portland in
the second river from here, and 100
miles away, was the first and only
refuge for ships seeking the cargoes of
the Oregon valleys, their meagre area
and bare channel depths might pass
muster as the essential port Of the
State and stand undisputed for all
time as the accepted and rightful
thing. But the premise is false to
the core, when scaled by any one of
the commoner rules of commerce;
and is maintained only by reason OF
the dominant influences engendered
Of wealth and political and CONNER
cial pull, all of which must
prevail until some great exigency
arises to counteract and disprove it,
such as war, food, or commercial
revulsion.
When that time comes the North
western world of America will know
why this magnificent bay, within a
dozen miles of deep water, with its
100 square miles Of land-locked
channel-ways and splendid natural
facilities for the quickest possible
despatch of a great commerce, has
been allowed to lay unused by the
powers that be, and the revelation
will be decidedly interesting for both
the cities in interest.
The rails Of Oregon and the ships
of the world will meet at the mouth
of the Columbia in due time, because
it is of the supreme logic OF de-
velopment, however long and sue
cessful the opposition arrayed against

"PROHIBITIONISTS."

"The following is list OF the
voters who signed the local option
petition for precinct No. 3, between
Seventh and Tenth streets, and the
business they are engaged in, and
should be preserved for future
future business reference. Many OF
them have received considerable
patronage from te saloons"
In addition to this the saloon men
have undertaken in the following way
to annul the petitions in precincts
Nos. 2 and 3: By threatening them
with boycott and with the loss Of
their positions they have endeavored
to secure the signatures of the local
option petitioners to request to the
county court to remove their names
from the local option petition.
In view OF the above facts we de-
sire to ask every citizen of Astoria if
he is willing to be owned and con-
trolled by few saloon men We
call attention to the fact that the
saloon men began the fight by filing
petitions to submit the questions Of
Saloons or no saloons" in precincts
Nos. /, E and 7, and refuse to accede
to the request of business represen-
tatives to come to an agreement,
thus indicating their utter disregard
for the business interests Of our city.
Why should these men say that the
citizens of precincts Nos. 2 and 3
shall not have the right to vote on
the same question?
1t is fact known and read Of all
men that the saloons have openly and
boldly violated every law on the
statute books with reference to their
business. Shall men who are known
to be violators of law dictate to law
citizens on what they shall or
shall not vote? Do the saloons so
completely own the City of Astoria
that they can say to one precinct you
MUST vote on the question OF IS
looms or no saloons" and to another
precinct you must be silent on the
question?
Has not the saloon power had the
business men of Astoria by the
throat long enough2 Have men en-
gagged in other business no rights
that saloon men are bound to re-
spect? Will not every right-thinking
man stand by the men whom the
saloons have threatened to boycott
and to rob Of their positions?
