THE TIMES Is a Republican nowspapcr, a bollovor In and Biipporter of Republican prin ciples mid policies, Republican men nnd measures. Tho Times, howovon Is not a hidebound partisan organ that can see no good outBldo tho palo dt Us bwii party. That's why Tho Times Is pleased that tho reports from Washington ludlcato tho buc . cess of Senator Chamborlnln'B bill oil html grant legislation nud that It is likely to provall In both houses. Tho Chamberlain bill provides tho timber on tho land grant lands shall bo sold by tho govornment to .competitive blddors; thnt the rail road company shall bo given Its equity of ?2.50 per aero ami that tho proceeds above this sum shall be' divided as follows: Forty per cent to tho state of Orogon for the establishment nnd support of tho common schools. Forty per rent to tho counties in which grant lands tiro located, for tho- building of roads and bridges or other purposes. Twenty per cent to tho United States govornment. Tho great meaning of the meas ure may bo seen when It is con sldorcd the timber laud In tho grant is rated as worth $10,000,000 or $r.0, 000,000. Tho Chamberlain 'pin" Is that 80 por cdnt of this wealth shall go to tho Ipcopla f Orogon, half of tho amount for tho public schools and half to the counties whero tho land Is located. Tho Chamberlain mensuro, if adopted, us now cecum assured, means a great Irrcduclblo school fund for Oregon nt last. It will moan better roads and bettor bridg es. It means an enormous saving in taxation for tho people of tho btato. It lu fortunate for Oregon Hint Senator Chamberlain bus produced a 'measure Unit will redound to tho benefit of tho peoplo of Orogon. aim Spow Slips Gee Gveir fcho could easily bo taken for hor slaughter's sister.

Tear out llfo'H Wisdom-written page, And dash It's trophies down! Ono moment let my llfo-blood streum From boyhood's font of flame! Give mo ono giddy, reeling dream Of life and lovo and famol My listening nugel lieiml tho prayor, And, calmly smiling, said, "If I but touch thy sliver hair Thy hasty wish has sped. "nut is thoro nothing In thy track To bid thee fondly stay, "Wlillo tho swift seasons hurry back To find tba wlshed-for day?" "Ah, truest soul of womankind! Without thco what wore llfo?

At Astoria Is a largo municipal dock that is, vory shortly, to bo equipped with coal bunkers. Tho account of this tolls where tho coal will como from, mentioning Urltlsh Columbia, Australia and Japan. Coos Day, with coal within loss than 2-1 hours of Astoria, Is not on tho list. Ships havo used Coos Ray coal.J Tho Breakwater received hor supply from tho company mines at Roaver Hill boforo sho was changed to an oil buruor. Tho fuel worked all right. Possibly tho coming of the railroad will better advertlso tho Coos Ruy product. This week thoro Roes from tho niverton Coal company's mines on tho Coquillo, tho first cargo of coal in a regular service that lu to ho maintained to tho Columbia river. Coal from this, county can bo put Into Columbia river ports cheaper than it can be brought fiom trans Pacific points.

Clause In Seaiium'N Iaiw Goes Into Effect Today Will Protect Sail am and Their Wuges, For conturles, tho world over, thoro have oxlstod "boarding houso crimps," but today in tho United States thoy aro to a great extent put out of business beeauso ot a clause in tho Seaman's law. This prohibits this class of men to, collect from captains of vessels part ot a sailors wages before ho is actually aboard the ship, Hltliorto, a prevalent practlco has beon for the" skippers wuntlng crows, to post "advance" money with tho crimps. In theory tho shippers wore to purchase outfits for the sailors; in practice tho crimps got tho money and the sailors generally wgro dump ed aboard, dead drunk, Just boforo sailing "time and far them there was never any redress. Tho next month or two thoy worked for tho run of it. Uudor tho old system the business, as far as tho crimps wore concerned, was a lucrative ono.

"Tiiinmooic ciiopso commantlH a higher prlco on tho markets because It is better known and all of tho product Is kept up In a required standard," said J. h. Smith, county agriculturalist, last evening. "In Coos and Curry wo aro mak ing evory bit us good cIiocho as do the Tillamook factories, but wo aro not known -oiitsldu ns wo should bo. This Is the purpose of tho or ganization wo aro trying to offect." Tho plan Is to havo tin Inspector who will rnako tho rounds of tho thirteen factories lu tho two coun ties, tako tests and sco that the product matches up as It should. - With this done, It will bo possible for a spiling agent to go Into tho wholesale markets of tho North west nud tho entire coast and soil uoos and curry riiueso In open competition with tho product from other sections and, in time, com mand' Just us high a price. The rosujt will bo two-fold; it will bring a higher prlru for Urn pioducors and moro of tholr wares will he sold ami tho odvortlsemeut will put tho two conation on ' tho map, especially noting them for this feature Mr, Smith, .nays that ho confi dently bolloves tho system will bo a success.

'' thoro Is an incrcaso in tho nmnilfac turo ot anallno dyos in tho United States. Amorlcan hatters, it ii' said, aro roaping a harvest by reason of tho innovation.
