A FOUL BLOW.

The appellate court of California, the
most of whose members it is said are
about to retire to private life, has de-
livered smashing blow, and withal a
foul one, to the San Franciscans, by
handing down a decision that practically
frees the scoundrels she has, at immense
cost in money. time and labor, put where
they belonged; in other words, Eugene
SchmiM' appeal from the judgment Of
Judge Dunno has been sustained and he
has been ordered released on bail; and
The ruling runs to the Ruef case and me-
gatives the action Of the lower courts. in
30 far as the Indictment against him is
concerned, it being identical with that
upon which his confederate was tried
and convicted. "r''
v There are plenty of basis for further
prosecution Of these people, if the statute
of limitations has not become operative;
and I'VE trust San Francisco will never
drop the war on these arch-scoundrels,
until she has "landed them" beyond the
eavil and influence of the law, or an In
spired bench that passes upon it. ''' '

COLUMBIA RIVER DEFENSES.

1t does not make any particular diff
ference whether war with Japan is i'm
minent for the United States, or not,
the strategic Importance of the mouth
of the Columbia river and its full and
early equipment as a great naval depot
are imperative questions confronting the
government From San Francisco to St.
Michaels, there is no such adequate
refuge as is offered by this bay and
river for the work of war, either for
land or water forces. 1t must, under
certain, and probable, conditions, take
the place Of Puget Sound and stand for
the most northerly system of equipment,
concentration, asylum, and strategic
utility. on the whole upper coast.
With the fortifcations already at hand
and the defensive energies attaching
thereto, the establishment of the naval
arm of protection win be an act of wis
dom and foresight that viii be justified
during the first ten weeks of whatever
engagement may ensue.
This is the time, and the present Con-
gress the one. to inaugurate the plan and
provide for its earliest possible compile
tion; time wasted now, may never be
accounted for to the people with any
show Of justification. We are not speak
ing for Astoria in this connection,
though, of course, such an establishment
would mean much for this city; we are
urging it as matter of national sig
nifcance and as a step in the program
of protection of the great Pacific Coast
and its Northwestern territory. Port
land, Seattle, Tacoma, all the great com
mercial communities of this section, are
involved in this line of defense and
would share nightly in the benefits in
herent in it; and they should get behind
it with the irresistible forces they
possess and never rest until it is an
assured fact.

LABOR MUST "GET NEXT"

The recent annual convention OF thu
State Federation Of Labor in this city
has evoked good deal Of comment
hereabout anent the purposes and op
portunities of this great element OF
human society; and from this passing
talk we gather one real, rational item,
expressed by well known citizen, a
man who has studied this matter from
the viewpoints of both employe and
employer.
Said he: Labor has it in its own
hands to attain to almost any height its
best standards imply. 1t must get next
to the Government, and by its own fire.
sistable vote. Not in any war-like spirit
not with threats and dubious implica-
tion; but with a sense of co-responsi'
bility and fairness that shall ensure
popular commendation and endorsement;
its own inherent power as an elective
agency must contribute the balance that
shall adjust its desired relation with
the Government, and maintain it after
it has been attained. Capital, its al
legged opponent, has always used this
immense advantage and profted by it
incalculably (oftener than not, wrong
fully), but it is "next' all the same.
'If the labor interests will cut out
the hampering and wearing policies OF
contention to which they devote the bulk
of their energies and dissipate too much
good time and money; raise the level
of aspirations and take on the higher
tasks of formulating and leading public
thought, using the polls as fulcrum and
their united strength as lever, they
would SOON assume place and dignity
and influence second to none in the
nation"
We quote this man for what there is
of counsel in the premises; yet, admit
ting the excellence of his theory, we are
compelled to deprecate the possibility
of its ever being applied.
