Correction Asked and Made

Some days ago the Astorian had
occasion to deal, editorially, with GER
tain recent history made here by the
Astoria & Columbia River Railroad
Company and the 0. R. & N. Com.
pany, and, in the course OF its present
ment OF the, then, presumed facts, said
that it was not now possible to ga to
either Office here and buy straight, full
transportation to distant, or foreign
points at first hand, even over the
trans-continental lines represented
here by each Office, but that one
must take an order on the Portland
station for such long distance service,
etc, etc; but, since making that sup
posedly correct statement, the As.
torian has been convinced that it
erred in that particular; that in so
erring it did an injustice to the COM
panies quoted, and since it does not
desire to do any man nor any -busi-
ness injury or injustice, it now and
here corrects the misconception, de-
precates the error, and will seek to
avoid them in the future.

Soldier Is Fined

v Jackson, a soldier from Fort
Stevens, was arrested on charge of
|drunkeness and in police court yes
tcrday afternoon was fined, with the
alternative Of spending few days
in the city lookup. Jackson was at
tired in civilian clothes. He was So
drunk that Patrolmen Wilson and
Houghten couldn't waken him. He
was placed in wheelbarrow and
wheeled to the city Jail The police
officers complained to Judge Ander
son that some Of the soldiers from
Fort Stevens are giving much
trouble lately, and it was said that
most Of the trouble comes from a new
lot OF them The older ones behave
themselves decently when they come
to town. As a rule the officers are
quite willing to let the men from the
fort enjoy themselves as they will as
long as they keep within reasonable
bounds.

boldly started to return to this city
yesterday with the evident intention
OF taking the evening train for Port
land. Sheriff Pomeroy learned that
Thomas was coming across the river
on the Major Guy Howard and went
to the dock to meet the steamer, but
at first sight there was nothing to be
seen of the man. Therefore the sheriff
went on board and made search and
found his man hiding in a small
room. He was taken to the county
Jail and locked up. 1t seems that
Thomas did not leave alone, for
woman crossed the river with him
and she was with him again yester-
day She had two trunks and the
check for one of them was found in
Thomas possession. just what dis
position was made OF the stolen
goods is not known, but it is alleged
that Thomas sold or traded them off
while on the other side of the river.
He is an ex-soldier and it is under
stood that he appeared at Fort Co
lumbia and finally was ordered from
the grounds there. Thomas was a.
member Of the surveying force which
is laying the line for the electric
railway to Seaside, and the man
whom he is accused of robbing was
for time his roommate. The wom-
an in the case also procured war
rant for Thomas arrest, charging him |
with the theft of one of her trunks

ment The pest house has now been

Need Patrol Wagon

There is hardly a day passes but
the need for patrol wagon in AS
toria is emphasized. AT the present
time the police officers on duty at
night seem to have a wheelbarrow
which they bring into use and thus
prisoners who can't or won't walk are
wheeled in limp state to the city's
bastile, That is hard on the officers
and somewhat hard on the prisoners,
though perhaps the latter objection
doesn't count very heavily. But in
the day time the matter assumes an
other phase, for then it is that the
eyes OF visitors and residents, men
and women and children, are fire.

such sights be not thrown UP into

like Astoria to have wagon which
can be used either as a patrol wagon
or ambulance, and the expense is not

HERMUSICALFUTURE
A BkICHI One
PLEASANT INTERVIEW WITH
DIR. EMIL EMMA ON AS
ToRIA'S MUSICAL ATTITUDE
AND PROMISE.

In conversation with DR.. End
Emma, the noted pianist, composer
and teacher, yesterday, that gentle
man spoke earnestly and kindly of the
status of this city in the world Of
music, and glowingly Of her future, IL
her people adhere closely to the stand
ards they have already chosen. Among
other things, Dr. Emma said:
The notoriety the city of Astoria
has received in the musical journals
and magazines, the past year, has FIX
ed its position as music center, and
the question as to the ability Of the
city to entertain musical conventions
is without doubt solved; her location
is ideal and the surroundings are
beautiful in all respects and to a high
degree idealistic to the visiting
musician.
"The Norwegian Sangerfest Of last
season gave US an excellent start.
and was followed by the formation of
The Astoria Philharmonic Society:
and the coming events, such as the
Scandinavian Sangerfest during the
coming Regatta, and later the CON
cert of the Philharmonic Society in
November, all of which will bring
notable soloists here; the coming
May Festival Of 1909 under the
auspices of the same society, and the
strong probabilities of the visit of the
the Chicago Symphony Orchestra
during the tendency of that festival;
with the formation of the local Elks'
orchestra which is doing excellent
work, and the spirit tha seems to have
taken hold of the local bands that
have given some very notable CON
certs during the summer, convince
me that the people of the city are
admirers of good music, and will, at
any time, support good music. | dc

Denver, Sept. 26.-With the arriv-

in a fair way to become the tempor-
airy financial center OF the country.
and by tomorrow evening or Monday
morning there will be hundreds OF
bankers and financiers in the mile

who for months have been laying
plans to make next week S conven-
tion of the American Bankers Asso-
citation the most successful and in
teresting financial conference in the
country's history.
Coming as it does on the eve of n
presidential campaign, with the bank
guaranty project and other financial
issues in the foreground, the coming
convention cannot fail to be of gen.
eral interest to the country at large,
and will doubtless produce many in
teresting discussions of financial mat
ters.
The recent panic. its causes and
effects. will also proviue a topic foI
consideration that will attract gen
