TlioHauitnond-Goblo railroad from Astoria to Portland whnn completed will greatly add to the importance of that seaport town. This lino doubtless will be extuud otl on and connect with tlio 0. 1 at Albany, and th tisoMiro connection ultimately with tbo East and control n transcontinental line of ita own. 1 uo people of Astoria are alive to tbo incalculable benefit to that city uy oocoiuing a lerunnns o: sncu a railroad line. They cau seo abend without a spirit of prophecy. They reason from cause to effect with a prescience born of busines intelli gence, whilo wo Kosobcrgeis. are jsWpiujr upon our opportunities aud dreauiiUi a listless life, waiting.

A rail road cau b bnilt to Coos bay via Camas valley with comparative small cost, and also down tbo TJtupqnn river to Gardiner on Winchester bay, cheaper still, and with a good harlxr, better tbau that of Coos bay, whilo a connection eastward is as feasible as any other across tho Cascade moun tains. And tlio country east of the Cas cades is ono of the best farming and grazing countries in Oregon, which, nutil it is pierced by a railroad is and will remain a wilderness. Doth tho Coast and Cascade ranges abound with immense forests of timber that would be utilized in opening up to settlement millions of acres of good arrable lands, thus giving homes to thousands of agriculturists ami also to thousands of woodmen, famishing lumber and fuel to tho farmers on thoso fertile plains oast of the Cas cades. As it is now, tho people of Douglas county and especially of Koseburg, are frittering away the best days of their lives in supine inactivity, while the people of other parts of the state are up and doing, seizing hold of every opportunity to develop their natural resources not a whit better than those we possess. SKILLED STATESMEN. The several aspirants for congress iu the first district and their friends also, are trying to make a point against Mr. Hermann by claiming he has had the office long enough "That no man has a mortgage on the place," and tiiat he shonhl stand aside now and give others a showt etc. Wo presnmo 3Ir. Hermann will stand aside if the people any so: but if the people demand that he do not step dowu and out to ac commodate some aspirant for the place, surely he is not to blame. This stepping down of candidates is the people's business. When they say step down, some one has to step, whether it be Mr. Hermann or any other man. And as to tho declara tion "no man has a mortgage on the rlace," we will remind all such that it is the people who have a mortgage on tho place, and it is no aspirant's business who the people choose to look after and manage Iho farm. What the people want is a good, active, wideawake man to ran thoir farm, and so long as one does well and is willing to serve, no. aspirant for tho place has any right to com piain. ltiey want u skilled agent to serve them and the longer one serve., if dilUgent and careful of their inter est, tho better. His experience is worth mncli and it is folly to swap horses in the middle of tho stream. When the voters play the rogne's march, the regno has to keop step with tho music. This is purely a business matter. When a man employs a carpenter or other mechanic, he engages, if possi ble, a skilled workman. Ho does not 6top to enquire how many years ho liBs been engaged in his trade, with the view of not employing him if he has plyed his tools over ten year?. It is a skilled workman he wants and the longer he has worked at his trado tho better, if, withal, he is a good mechanic, does good work and in reasonable time, and is satisfied with his wages. HOME INDUSTRIES. The people of Ilo3ebnrg aud of Douglas county should encourage homo industry ami local manufac tories. Our great need is tho intro duction of more manufacturing in dustries. When men of energy nud business capacity come inUr a community with the intention of iu vestiug their capital iu au enterprise that is a benefit to tho public, they .should receive Iho hearty support of I tho people. This is tho only way that now, industries cau be established 3Iou mnst kuow that thoir efforts urc appreciated before they will invest money whore tho risk is great, and tho returns problematical. They may not bo expected to give direct liuaucial aid. but thoy can give that which iu tho long run is much hot ter, namely, their moral support aud patronage. VOUGLAS COUNTY FRUIT SIII1-MENT. The shipment of fruit from several points on tho S. P. It. 11. in D nglas has becomo 11 fixed fact. Tho tide of inquiry for our excellent fruits of all tho staple yrtnoties basset instrougly and tho ebb of fruit hits begun and, ore long, if our fruit growers vill fol low tip their advantages, tho fruit bnsii.es will becomo tbo leading business of this county. Tho soil and climate is favorable for the pro duction of the best staple fruits in America, aud the demaud is on the increase, and no goed 1 canm exists why Douglas county should not lie tho greatest fruit growing county on this const. UOLVLAS COUXTV FRUITS. The dawn of better times for Doug las county appears upon tho horizon. Tho fruit busmen is usnming delinito shape. Alteady suyVrul carloads of fruit have been shipped aud prepara. tious for several more nro being made. Ono thing tho $fc"i,XH,000 paper trust will have to do when it begins to cut shines and show its teeth will be to meet the newspapers of tho United States. lu such a light tho paper trust won't kuow whether "it is afoot or a critter back." Tho Ameri- cau puoplo are against i rusts and tho paper trust mav bo iust tho feather to break the back" of all fatich monopolies. Tho silver questiou narrowed down to tho gist of the matter is simply this. Silver is sixteen times less con venient than Kold. Aud as bank notes silver certificates, bank checks, drafts and bills of exchange, are still more convenient than either, and far greater amount of business is douo with paper. Neither gold uor silver is used by actual transfer to so great an extent as formerly. Convenience in handling and a rapid and cheap transfer of money in business affairs, is fast snperseeding the actual hand line of metalic monev Tho American Register of Loudon ami 1'ans sizef nn the Euroneati idea of the situation in this country by saying: ''While it would bo al- most ludicrous to throw the sliuhest doubt on the stability of American cretin under all circumstances, it cannot be nrged that confidence in I 1110 ou,rers am lc"era 01 e Gien the American Nation is equivalent to i 1,bIc Congregational Sunday school re confider.ee in democracy.'

San Fran eisco, Imdon and Paris show an alarm ing increase of suicides w ithin the past sir. months. Students of psyochological subjects are trying to fathom the rea sons, but no light has yet lmen shed upon the subject. Coroner Hawkins, of this city, has had more inquests over suicides since January 1, than were ever held in San Francisco during an equal tmriod. Since he took charge of the ollice 73 months ago, 'Jl suicides have came to bis notice, being nearly as many as occurred hi IHU'i or 1S91. The fol lowing is the number of suicides each month of 18'J5: January, 5; February, !; March, 12; April, 12; May, la; Junc M : July, 15; to August 21, 10; total HI. There were but 112 suicides in lS'JIJand 125 in 1891, but if the same rate continues to the end of the year, the coroner's record will show nearly 170 suicides for the year. Coroner Hawkins' rain has thus far been noted also for an excessive number of murders. There have already been 2'J, while there were but 28 during all of l!m and but ail in 1891. Ed.
