will the bulk Of his estate was given
for life to his sons, John Jacob and
William, and then went absolutely to
their heirs. John Jacob Asor died on
February %, 1890, and William Wal
dorf Astor came into possession of the
estate, which he had great share in
managing from the time of his grand
fathers death.
Sent to the Assembly
Early in October. 1877, Mr.. Astor
was waited upon by q deputatlon of
Republican friends and politicians,
who urged him to accept the nomina-
ton for the Assembly in his district,
the 11th. After some consultation and
unanimously nominated on October 3,
1877. His candidacy was the beginning
of the custom Of young men of wealth
and social position in New York going
into politics.
Mr.. Astor was personally little
known in his district. his business pur-
suits and his quiet and domestic habits
having kept him in comparative retire
ment. In the canvass. however, he
made himself exceedingly popular. and
he was elected by majority of over
$500 votes.
Mr.. Astor served his term at Albany
creditably, but owing to his newness to
politics and lack of experience in talk
ing on his feet he was not particularly
conspicuous during the session. He
was the steady advocate Of all meas
ures calculated to benefit the City OF
New York and an opponent of all jobs.
He took strong stand on the excise
question and was one Of the first to
urge the reduction of the fare on the
elevated railroaGs.
In 1870 Mr. Actnr uou mt forward
by the Republicans for the State Sen
ate. Although a strong Democratic
combination was united against him
Mr.. Astor was elected by majority
Of nearly 1900
Given Important Work to Do
Senator Astor was placed on the most
important committees Of the Senate.
He was third on the Judiciary Commit
tee, Of which Senator William II. Rob
ertson was chairman, and was men,
Der of the committees on Commerce
and Navigation, and Militia. and chair
man Of the Committee on Public Ex-
penditures.
He ran twice IS Republican candi-
date for Congress in this city, but lost
each time by a small minority. In 1881
Mr. Astor ran against Roswell +.
Flower for the vacancy in Congress Gre
ated by the appointment OF Lev. P.
Morton as the Minister to France. Mr..
Astor was defeated, and this was the
last time that he stood for an elective
office
President Arthur in 1882 appointed
him Minister to Italy, where he re-
manned until 1855. He resigned his
post q few days before Grover C;eve-
land took the oath of Office as Prcs-
dent After his return from Italy
Mr.. Astor dropped out Of public life
and devoted all his time and energy to
the Astor estates.
On June 8, 1878. Mr.. Astor married
Miss Mary D. Paul. daughter of James
w. Paul, of Philadelphia She was a
niece of Admiral Dahlgren and Abbott

New-York tribune., 1919-10-20
POLITICAL
Off and On!

An off year in politics
means a year when every
body is off the job but the
boss and his help.
Of years are years
when bosses figure they
can put over anything
because the people aren't
looking. Also, off years
are years when men get
on who could never get
on any other year.
This is an off year-or
it was six weeks ago. 1t
seemed there never was a
year so completely off"
Five years of war excite
ment had left the people
without a thrill for poll
tics.
Five years of Kaiser
chasing had made boss
hunting tame.
So the boss and the
bosslets promptly got
busy. They revived an
old trick which even the
second-story men of poll
tics thought outlawed
twenty years ago.
They reached into the
sacred precincts of the
Supreme Court, laid
hands upon Justice Jo-
seph E. Newburger, who
had served twenty-eight
years, and said: Get
out! We've got another
man for this job!'
And reaching into the
City Court, they seized
Justice Richard H. Smith,
who had served ten
years, and said: you,
too. We need your job
also!'
Being an off year they
felt it was safe to throw
faithful judges of the
bench. 1t looked so safe
that they deemed no
word of explanation nee
essary.
But that was weeks
ago. 1t looks now as if
this is not going to be
such an off year as it
seemed.
There are plenty of
signs that the people are
not going to stand for
this crude raid upor their
courts. Already it is evi-
dent that they are going
to rally to the principle
of keeping the hands of
the bosses off of the
bench.
This organization was
formed to crystalline the
opposition to this politi-
cal raid.

GRAIN AND MILLING NEWS.

Construction of the $4,000 mill for
the Miller Flour Mills Co. started Au.
gust at Yakima on the site of the
old Yakima MILL It will be ready
for operation November 1 and have
a capacity of 800 barrels daily.
Farmers of the intermountain states
are refusing to sell their wheat at
the government guaranteed price and
several mills in this district are idle
because of inability to get grain, &C.
cording to authorized statements of
Ogden, Utah, grain exchange Off

Work has begun on a $4,000 ware
house for the American Falls Udaho)
Milling Co. The new structure will
be 57x42 feet, two stories high, of
brick and concrete, and will add stor-
age space for 20 carloads of -four.
In addition, the milling company is
making improvements to present
equipment amounting to $4,000.
Stanley Scearce's Aug. report
lower Flathead, Montana, says: The
month of July in the lower Flathead
was practically a repetition of the
month of June; 81 cloudless days;
precipitation the same as June, name
ly. IL inches. The total precipitation
Of June and July compares with 2.33
inches for the same months last year
and All inches for the normal These
conditions resulted in further de-
terioration of the dry land wheat,
also some of the irrigation wheat
where sufficient water was not avail
able. The condition of winter wheat
on July 1 was IS per cent; spring
wheat rs per cent, indicating total
yield of 100000 bushels. Threshing
of winter wheat is now in progress !;
milling quality extra fine; will grade
No. 1 and 2 dark hard winter Ele.
vators are bidding $2.13 for basic
grade wheat Prospects are for a
decline to government prive during

Preventing Grain Fires.

Plans Of organization for the grain
dust explosion and fire prevention
work of the United States grain cor.
poration, for which and appropriation
of $4,000 was made recently at the
suggestion of julius H. Barnes, Uni
ted States wheat director, were an
nounced today at the corporation Of
fees, AZ Broadway.
This campaign is being carried on
in cooperation with the department
of agriculture in Washington, with
David j. Price, Of the bureau of
chemistry, in charge. DR.. Price is
the engineer in charge of the grain
dust explosion investigations carried
on by the agricultural department.
He will have the assistance of DR..
H. H. Brown, organic and physical
chemist, also of the bureau of chem
istry.
In order to carry on the safety first
program for the grain trade the en-
tire country has been divided into
four districts. These will be the
eastern, central, northwestern and
Pacific.
eVrnon Fitzsimmons will direct the
