Every newspaper wants to
publieh the news. The better the
paper the more prosperous it viii!
be. Local news items are especial
.ly hard to run down. How many
times have you, dear reader, been
approached by the newspaper
man for an item Of news and told
him that you knew nothing Of in
terest. Probably at the time your
family were away on a visit or
some one from out Of town was
visiting at your home. OF course
you didn't mean to deceive the
scribe, yet when you received
your paper you wondered why
your family or friends were not
mentioned. A good way to avoid
all of this is to kindly inform US
of the facts or drop a note in the
postoffice to the paper. The one
item may not amount to much,
but several columns of such news
is the life of a local paper. See?

Miss Goldman's Lecture


One hundred and twenty-nine
people were present at the Astoria
opera house last evening to listen to
Miss Emma Goldman, the high
priestess OF anarchy in this country.
The major portion OF the audience
was present with the speaker and her
doctrines. Miss Goldman was intro
duced by c. J, Curtis, the we'll known
attorney and assistant secretary OF
the Clatsop County Republican cen
tral committee, who alone attended
the speaker upon the stage through
out the address. Miss Goldman is a
ready talker and has her theme well
in hand at all times, and from her
extraordinary viewpoint, is quite in
teresting. She is personable lady
and has an excellent voice and clear
enunciation. Her subject matter last
night had to do with the precept that
the government is not only non-es-
sential but decidedly injurious to So
ciety and should be dispensed with,
and will, in time,
