relations between employers of labor
and their employees. Drawn closer to-
gether than any time during the pre-
vious years of prosperity. marred by
strife and contention and characterized
by heartier spirit of cooperation,
these mutually helpful relations bid
fair to continue at least through the
autumn and into the winter. Why
may they not continue indefinitely?
Why should they fade under the influ-
ence of the sun of prosperity, when de-
veloped and fastened toward glorious
maturity amid the lowering clouds of

CITY GOVERNMENT AND THE
PAY ENVELOPES

In his speech at the Glen under the
auspices of the labor organizations
yesterday, Will Keller made some ex
cellent points. His insistence on the
relation of civic conditions to the buy
ing power of wages should be Of in
terest to every one. no matter what
he gets in his pay envelope. 1t Is a
hard matter to make many men rea
lie until they actually get up against
it, that good city government makes
the money at the end of the week &c
farther.
1t is equally hard to realize that
the price of gas, the price of water
the price OF electricity. and house
rent-rhe supplies of the corner gro
ceries, all of them depend on the kind
OF government, the honesty and meth.
DDS employed by officials.
The man who has no property, as
Mr.. Keller brought out, is not immune
may suffer even more than the owner
OF TIE property. And as taxes are OF
various sorts-city, township, state
and county-it is not alone a matter
OF city government. The city govern.
ment is of course. the one which the
average man has most control over
and the one which can be most affect
ed. as rule, by public opinion.
The city government has also to do
as Mr.. Keller pointed out, with .the
rates OF charges of public service cor.
porations. Many man who will not
take the trouble to interest himself in
good government and public affairs
will spend an hour grumbling about
the price he must pay for his water.
1t is only when callousness to at
fairs begins to come out of his pocket
that the man takes notice.
In his criticisms on present condi
tons Mr.. Keller did not make the mis-
take of stopping without suggesting a
remedy of proved success to take the
place of the thing he criticised.
And what he proposed is not a new
thing to the men he was addressing
For the Des Moines plan of city gov
eminent with it's features of recall
initiative and referendum have been
tenets held by organized labor fol
some little while. In this remedy, a.
far as can be judged from this dis
lance, Mr. Keller is correct in our opin
ion. We have already expressed GU,
interest in the Des Moines plan, and
the kindred forms OF commission gov

is significant that Indiana cities are

Whether the Des Moines plan is
feasible or not, whether it is evel
adopted or not, the connection be
tween good government and the pa,
envelope is undeniably the same

ErujtJess Power.

Remember son, when you aspire
To be man whose word,
Fen though the world may not admire,
With awe is always heard,
Events as they are placed on view
Out at the baseball game.
When things go wrong and all is
through,
The umpire gets the blame.
He stands the monarch of the scene;
His right arm he extends
With an authority serene;
And yet he has no friends.
Somewhere the home teams bound to
lose
And when with angry shame
The vanquished hear their foes
enthuse,
The umpire gets the blame.

interesting matter; not the least
startling 81 which was local an
nouncement to the effect that "The
City Of Astoria is out Of debt and

New York Herald, OF date April Is,
1865, with its rules turned to mark

store by these fine old specimens OF
hand'set journalisnS and they are
worth all The care he has given them.
They are both in fine state Of preser
vation, One Of the advantages
wrought by the digging up Of these
old editions Of the Astorian, has been
to fix, beyond all further doubt, the

paper which were: The daily, on Feb

formally made in writing, or on a
typewriter, OF formally told the Off
GERS. Often times a wink is good
as a kick, and it has been the winks
that have counted with the Astoria
police officers.
The commissioners aver that the
police have something better to do
than to spy over transoms and into
back rooms to find gambling while
everyone knows that the gambling is
wide open, just as wide open as the
saloons on Sunday. As defense Of
the charges made in the Belland reso-
luton the statement of the police
commissioners seems to be rather
humorously weak-and after all it
may be meant as joke.
The commissioners say the FIRST
duty Of police officer should be 10
protect people and property; per
haps better way to say this would
be that 1t is the sole and sworn duty
of an officer to enforce laws, and the
officers have taken a solemn oath ID
enforce the laws which are now being
broken. OF course the whole state
ment OF the commissioners is a CON
fession that the charges made in the
Belland resolution are correct, but
that police officers shouldn't pay any
attention to gambling, etc, for, they
should be out looking for robbers, Of
which there are none in the city Of
Astoria. As a logical presentation.
the statement Of the commissioners is
a thing of beauty. And of course If
any police officer wanted orders"
not to arrest gamblers, etc, it is diff
hcult to see how anything palmer
could be put up to him than the
statement Of last night. A police Off
Ger who couldn't understand that
wouldn't know enough to peek thru
a keyhole or look over transom.
If the officers don't make arrests
pretty soon it is perhaps safe to
hazard guess that Mayor Smith viii
suspend some of them. He said he
would. And the power of the council
over the police department seems to
be far greater than is thought. Mean
time, as ordinary citizens read it, the
new order Of the commissioners, as
issued last night, is for police officers
to keep on doing just as they have
been doing in the past.
Perhaps if the commissioners would
ascertain what the last grand jury
heard about "orders" they would be
able to discuss the subject in a more
interesting manner.

Rights Of Way

would run right over one OF the finest
parts Of the cemetery and would not
only cut the cemetery up in pretty
bad shape but would also remove
from possible sale at least several
thousand dollars worth of burial
lots. The strip asked for Is the regu.
lation 90 feet, lnasmuch as there
would be At least one cut OF perhaps
80 feet il seems evident that much
more than 90 feet would be removed
from possible use for purposes OF bur

sloping banks which could not be uti-
lised for graves Hence in places
where deep cuts are made It is evi.

that the committee will 80 to the
