A RIGHTEOUS VETO.

sOnce again Theodore Roosevelt,
President of the United States has
done the right thing at the right
moment, in vetoing the omnibus irrl-
cation bill which involves immense
and popular rights Of the people. He
holds that the water rights OF the
nation are to be conserved and used
for the people and not given away to
every aDolicant that shall ask for the
purpose of turning a free and url-
hampered inheritance into source OF
corporate greed and exploitation; he
is standing by the waters and water
powes Of the country just as he stood
by the lands of the people, and doing
it boldly and honestly and without
temporizing or shilly-shallying.
From one end of the United States
to the other his action in this matter
will be endorsed by the whole people
and the hold he has upon the people
of America will be the deeper, frmer
and more justihable, for it. This is
the sort Of thing that this country
has needed all these years; the
faculty of doing the right thing at
the right moment.

namely that all power ultimately
resides In the people and that when

A NATIONS SYMPATHY.

Almost two years to day, the
country is called upon to turn its ever
ready sympathies to a famous and
stricken district, Chelsea, in the old
Bay State, just as it did to the Golden
Gate city, inf April, 1906; and it does
this with instant and generous
voiumne.
America leads the world in these
splendid manifestations and it is I'M
mensely to the credit of the people
that they can and will respond quick
ly and cordially; it merges and Yields
the widely separated millions IN a
vast cohesive intimacy that cannot
but be good for the founding OF i'm
perishable unity and appreciatlve
confidence, factors of no small pro
portions when one measures distance;
on this glorious continent. We are
brothers and chums, from the 81
Croix to the Columbia; from Bostor
to Astoria, and from the lakes tt
the KEYS of Florida. So may it b

MADE IN ASToRIAr

Ii has been demonstrated by Mr.,
Lew Ogan, the expert in clays and its
products, such as brick, tiles, piping,
terra Gotta, etc, etc, that Clatsop
county is unequivocally favored
center for supply of the finest and
readiest sorts, both in quality and
quantity: and with such assurances as
he has given with such example OF the
manufactured article as has put forth,
it becomes the bounden duty of AS
torians and Clatsopians to take q
positive and open hand in launching
this new industry; else they will be
liable to a charge OF communal indit-
ference that may be hard to bear, Il
we cannot assume to sponsor oul
own advantages, to exploit them and
assist in their material development
we need not look for that commercial
appreciation beyond our borders, that
goes to make for thrifty progress and
business confidence. Mr., Ogan has
made a detailed and special effort in
our interests as we'll as his own, and
lis entitled to full consideration at the
hands of our investors.
If he can produce from factory
basis, in commercial quantities, the
goods he has evolved from local
elays, he has swung it up to this
community to reward him honestly
and promptly by frank and ample
support; and the better and quicker
that Support, the wider and sooner
the range of the new business may be
determined. And this is not said in
the peculiar interest of that gentle
man. it is declared for the common
good of this whole section. The mere
fact that the shrewd and careful
trustees of such an institution as the
Weinhard Estate say, with perfect
candor. that If this quality of build
ing material shall be put out here
they stand ready to buy the half mil
ion brick needed for the beautiful
1--WE einhard-Astoria," the people here
have an assurance they cannot afford
to disparage nor disregard in pure
" business sense; and this coupled
with the fact that there are other
equally important, tentative orders
for the product, when he shall manu-
facture it, but emphasizes the unes-
capable duty Of this city and county
to champion the venture and bring
lit to its paramount conclusion OF sue
cess.

ASTORIA IS READY.

The policy now developing as be-
tween the Government and the
States for the creation of broader
and ampler National Guard service
meets with general appreciation IN
this section of Oregon, and Astoria
is quite ready, with plenty OF hne'
spirited young fellows and trained
officers, to meet the new issue, and
figure as practically as may be de-
sired of her
Aside from the urgency OF advanc'
ing the military forces OF the country
which lie at the base of the move
ment. it is an excellent thing for the
young people toward whom It IS d.
rected, in the opportunity it affords
for the disciplinging, guiding, and
advancing Of our youths along lines
of patriotic public service, as well as
extending valuable arm OF the pup
lie defense, at time when such I'M
proyement is essential.
We have no doubt the proposition
to establish and station a company
here will go with . vim when the
federal and state officers charged with
the work shall have rounded out their
plans, and all hands, the Astorian in
cl,ded. will cheerfully render what
a;d NAV BIZ timely and appropriate.

THE FIGHT FOR FAME.
Mans Heroic Effort to Clutch the
Priceless Jewel.

His way was in a bloody lane where
clanking caissons spashed along, his
goal the line where blazing guns laugh
ed out their song of death. On, on, on
lie went, His ears were filed with
sounds of quick commands, bugle
blasts, discordant drums No futter-
ing fear was in his heart. no thought
of home, 10 specter of the dread de-
spair that waited at the hearth if he
never came again. To him there was
no terror in the saber's flashing blade,
no warning in the bullets deadly hiss.
Youth trod all reason underfoot; am
bition saw all glory overhead. On, on
he went to WOO and win his bride, the
priceless jewel-fame.
Another in garnet sighed for fame.
Crusts We're his portion and his raj
ment only rags. Herinit-like he toiled
alone. nor cold nor hunger ever daunt-
ell him. He marShaled all his hosts,

ed in and touched his hands he read Il
message from the world without. all
white, all cheerless. Still as a chrysa-
lis his fancy wove and spun and made
Its garments wondrous, then burst in

The profit of gold mine depends, not on
the amount of rock crushed under the stamps
but upon the amount of gold which can be ex-
tracted from the rock. In similar way the
value of food which is eaten does not depend
on the qua nifty which is taken into the stom
ach but upon the amount of nourishment eX-
tracted from it by the organs of nutrition and
digestion. When these organs are diseased
they fail to extract the nourishment in suffi-

An Error In Geography.

On one occasion the British lost a
point i'll their war with Russia by rca-
son of an error In their geography
This was when Commodore Elliot had
succeeded in blockading the Russian
fleet in the gulf of Saghalin, on the
east coast of Siberia The Russians
We're in n cHl-de-sac, and the British
ships waited contentedly for such time
as the enemy should venture To put to
sea. But they waited in vain, and at
last an investigation was made. 1t
was found that the Russian fleet had
vanished. While the British commo.
dore waited at the south end of the
gulf the Russian ships slipped away
through the shadows at the north end
into the sea of Okhotsk. Until this
discovery was made the British gov
eminent had believed Saghaln TO be
peninsula. Now, too late, they
learned that it was an island, with a
very narrow channel at the north end
of the gulf running into the sea of
