OREGON NIGGARDLINESS.

The majority of $500 votes already
accounted for, in behalf of the Uni
versity of Oregon appropriation OF
$125,000; and the majority of 1880
against the appropriation of 100000,
for the building of o. N. G. armories,
convicts the State of Oregon OF mig
gardliness, pure and simple.
Such returns, in such causes, make
manifest the spirit of dubious econ
omy and an unpatriotic estimate of
its palmer duties. In the matter Of the
University bill, the meagre and grudg
ing success of the measure startles
everyone with the nearness OF the
disgrace of its defeat and causes a
universal sigh of relief for the
escape made at the hands of the mod
erns who wrought it. On the other
hand, the glaring negative recorded
against the Armory provision, be-
comes unhappily patent in the State
that was the first to raise a regiment
and land it in the Philippines, during
the trans-Pacifc war; and it will be
heard from in the future to the last
ing discontinue of the people.
1t is this hide-bound policy that
keeps Oregon inertly nested in a
group of live and vibrant States and
marks her as peculiar" to say the
least of it. II is this same habitual,
moss-grown passivity that holds her
down to one city of commercial sway
and influence and narrows her field
of operation in all lines for want Of
competitive bids in the general
scheme of development; a condition
perilously retroactive in a territory so
vastly charged with superb advant-
ages.

BRIBERY ALREADY AFooT.

The Portland press is perfectly
candid and unambiguous about the
fact that bribery is already afoot to
defeat George w. Chamberlain for
the United States Senatorship This
is a bit earlier than we had expected
to hear of the game and we confess
to no other element OF surprise in
the premise than its rather remarkable
celebrity.
The Senatorial game as it will be
played out in this commonwealth,
from now on to the climax in Janu-
ary, will be one of the object lessons
Of the political history of Oregon, and
perhaps of the country. 1t will pay
the oldest OF the arch-masters OF the
great and nasty game to watch it
closely and take notes Of men and
measures they know nothing about;
ii will be a revelation, alright! Ore
gon, politically organized and in her
right partisan senses. has turned some
of the biggest and foulest tricks OF the
years; and now, disorganized, unled,
irresponsible, the license of the game
will be illimitable in illnesses as we'll
as finance, AND scandal. It's going
to be a free for all scrap, without
rules, without mercy, but hardly up
to the Bayardan standard.

THE KEY-PLAN.

The great scheme to build a per-
manent sea-wall along the Astoria
front is the key-plan Of her real de-
velopment. This compels the initial
determination of the most progress
sive and adaptive system Of construc-
ton; lines, materials, grades and ia
cilities so comprehensive as to include
the widest range of utility the future
may demand.
Such an enterprise is, fundamental
ly, entitled to the utter wisdom Of its
projectors because of its immense
bearing on the commerce of the years
to come; it must be built to serve
other generations, and its cost must
be borne thankfully by those that
come after; therefore we should hand
along something that will warrant the
pride and appreciation of those who
inherit it and which will serve theil

Astoria People Can Tell You Why
It Is So.

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause
OF disease, and that is why the cures
are always lasting. This remedy
strengthens and tones up the kidneys,
helping them to drive out Of the body
the liquid poisons that cause back
ache, headache and distressing kid
ney and urinary complaints. Astoria
people testify to permanent cures.
VIM. Joyce, Az Duane street, As

gan using Doan's Kidney Pills, ! was

from my kidneys. The secretions
from these organs were so profuse
as to give me a great deal OF annoy

proper rest at night, | would rise in
the morning feeling more tired and
weak than when I went to bed and

Astoria is never likely to do
greater thing than this, and il it is
rightly done, it will repay her hand
somely every day OF its existance.
But it must be done with devoted ad-
herence TO the best principles OF en-
gineering, commercial usage and
municipal expediency known to mod
ern science, or it will prove the very
acme OF stupidity.

Birthday Party
for the Church.

The birthday party given by the
East Hill Baptist church last Tuesday
night at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
C. A. Bredt, was one of the most
pleasant events Of the season.
The very spacious and beautiful
home OF Mr.. Bredt was thrown open
to the members and friends of the
church, and every room was crowded
with guests
1t was indeed an informal gathering
and besides the members of the
church there were large number of
their friends, including many tourists
from the north. The evening was
spent in social conversation. games.
etc. The hostess. assisted by other of
the ladies, served lemonade, cake and
chocolate in abundance
Beside the social enjoyment with
friends, number of happy acquaint-
ances were MADE by the pastor and
members, with the strangers present.
A UNIQUE thought so often spoken
of was the hanging of the Japanese
lanterns to guide the guests from the
cars to Mr.. Bredt's home.
Every one present seemed to be
happy and many expressions Of a de-
lightful time were heard when the
hour came to depart
The birthday offerings amounted to
about $50 for the benefit of the church.

The fcTtune-teller was Miss Elmira

There were several original games,
which were very amusing. Hearts were
given the boys, upon which each one
wrote the kind of a wife he wanted,
and keys were given the girls to write
their ideal husbands upon.
The hearts and keys were read. and
