All communication Intended for pub lication should be directed to the editor. Business communications of all kinds and remittances must be addressed to The Astorlan." The Astorlan guarantees to Its ad- Tertlsers the largest circulation of any newspaper published on the Columbia river. Advertising rates can be had on ap plication to the business manager. Of urse the city of Astoria will not buy-the West Shore Mills Company's plant, and it is unliely that its offer to 11 was made in earnest. In the flrvt place the plant of the mill com pany cost more than it was worth at the beginning;. Secondly, it Is too bad ly depreciated to be of any further economical service, and, thirdly, it is entirely out of date, even as a steam plant, which la not the kind the city wants to operate. A first-class, mod em electric light plant, with auxiliary steam power, can be erected on the city's own real estate at the water works for less than the site and build ings of the mill company would prob ably be appraised at. The proposi tion submitted at last night's meeting of the council Is ridiculous and. even if Intended in good faith, should not be considered for a minute. The silence of the Oregon republican platform on the pending ship subsidy bill must be a disappointment to the friends of that measure in congress and elsewhere. For a great Pacific .seaboard state like Oregon to have no opinion on a measure of such transcend ent importance to the development of Pacific shipping interests with our new Oriental possessions must look singular to the balance of the country. But to those intimately acquainted with the political situation in Oregon there is no mystery about it The bill has been so persistently misrepresented to the voter of the state that those who ap preciate its merits hesitated to make it a subject of contention at the Port land convention. In the Interest of harmony it was thought best to com mend no specific act of the adminis tration at Portland, but to dispose of the whole subject .of the administra tion's standing by a general endorse ment and the instruction of the dele gates sent to the national convention. Friends of the shipping bill need not despair, however, of getting the mat ter in its right light before the people of Oregon before the campaign Is over. While the only newspaper of present general circulation in this state has seen fit to attack and vilify the pro moters of the bill and create prejudice against it by false representations con cerning its provisions, all other news papers of prominence on the coast, even those democratic, are staunch sup porters of the bill and strongly recom mend its passage. The influence of these outside papers will gradually be felt in Oregon and the people of the state will finally come round to a bet ter understanding of it. It has been tcld to the people of Oregon, for In stance, that the bill Is designed to aid the trans-Atlantic ocean liners; that its benefits would go to existing fast passenger steamer lines and that it would be of no encouragement to the construction of merchant steamers of moderate speed, such as are required for trans-Pacific commerce. Another slander against the bill Is the state ment that its profits would largely in ure to the Standard Oil Company in the operation of its private oil tank steam ers, and that that monopoly is doing all it can to secure its passage. It is st ran ye that a newspaper of estab lished standing would seek to so gross ly impose upon its readers. Not one of these objections raised to the bill is true, but on the contrary the bill has been carefully amended and re vised so as to exclude specifically, in the Standard Oil case these special Interests from all participation in Its benefits. Practically one-third of the benefits of the bill are set apart for the Pacific coast a discrimination almost unr-t.rynaWe, when the disproportion of Pacific commerce and the possession of only one first-class shipyard W con sLiered. Instead of encouraging the construction of . fast passenger liners for the Atlantic service, an examlna Uon of the bill shows that the larger part of Its premiums will go to freight carriers of about 12-knot speed. These are only a few leading examples of the moss of misinformation circulated in Oregon about the bill, with such de liberation and obvious spirit of unfair ness as to be discreditable if not ab solutely criminal. The entire text of the bill is too long for reproduction in the Astorian's columns, and no attempt to publish extracts from it could do Justice to the merit which, as whole, It contains. It is the luty of the various sub-organlxatlons of the repub Mean party to procure .optet of the bill for immediate distribution throughout the state. It will unquestionably be come a law at this session of congress, and every republican worker and voter should be made familiar with its pro visions before election day. .'EKD FOR THE SHIPPING SUB SIDY. Tacoma Ledger. It seems to .be the Intention of re publican senators to bring up and push to passage the shipping subsidy bill, as soon as the Philippine bill Is dis posed of. It is hoped such action will be taken both in the senate and house. and It can be In spite of democrats opposition, which will result in pro longed debate. No measure before congress is of more importance to the material Inter- erts of this country than the shipping bill. Some few weak-kneed republl cans have Intimated that it would be better to postpone action on the bill until after the fall elections, but this view has been promptly and properly vetoed by the party leaders. Just how a measure that will prove to beneficial to all classes sould have an adverse effect upon the political fortunes of its sponsors Is not clear. At any rata re publicans are willing to take their chances with it, and the opposition of the democracy is a pretty good Indi cation that its passage will not harm the republican cause. The bill as now before congress, after being amended at the instance of and in accordance with the views of West ern members, is a decided Improvement over the original measure. Recogni tion Is given the importance of the commerce of the Pacific In the pro vision that not less than 3 per cent of the money paid for subsidies shall be for vessels on the Pacific. Besides the division of the subsidy, giving a specific share to the Pacific, other important changes are the reduc tion of the period during which sub sidies will be paid to ships now in existence from twenty to ten years. Greater encouragement is given to slower speed vessels engaged almost exclusively In carrying cargo, and all features of the bill are Intended to give encouragement to the owner of a single ship as well as to large companies. The ships of the Standard Oil com pany, built and equipped for tarrying oil, are barred from the benefits of the act. One cf the best features of the amended bill is that which secures a participation to new ships that may come -under the provisions of the new law, instead of permitting a large share of the advantages to be absorbed by the shipping lines already in the field. Another wise provision Is that against combinations of shipowners or trans- The Best Food for Infants Nature planned that infants should have only milk for at least the first year of life. But thin milk, skimmed milk, will not nourish. It's the milk that is rich in cream, or fat, that does the work. This is be cause fat is positively neces sary for the growing body.

Housework Is Hard Work Without It port t Ion lines In the foreign trade to Increase rates, providing that tonnage amounting to one-third of the total tonnage sailing out of single port may not combine either with a foreign company or owner without forfeiting all rights to the subsidy. The people of this country pay an nualty to foreign shipowners over 1100,- 000,000 tor the carrying of the com merce of this country, which Is rapidly Increasing. The effect of the subsidy law, which at the outside can take but IS.000.000 a year, will be in a few years to retain these hundreds of millions of dollars for Amercans, give employ merit to thousands of American fchlp carpenters, mechanics and sailors, and to carry the American flag to all quar ters of the earth. The establishment of the open door In China, the acquisition of the Phil ippines and Hawaii, will extend our commerce on tha Pacific, where under present conditions there are not enough vessel, American and foreign, to carry the trade. Ills not now a question In the Pacific of whether a foreign or Ameri can ship shall ca.Ty the trade, but to find sufficient bo turns of any national ity. At present our trade Is congested by this lack of necessary shipping, which the subsidy will do much to re lieve. " THE NEED AND THE REMEDY. Post-Intelligencer. The Post-Intelligencer lays before Jts readers this morning the facts present ed by the house committee on mer chant marine and fisheries, in recom mending the amended shipping bill, to gether with a complete summary of the provisions of that important measure. It is of such great Interest to the com merce of this section as to warrant the space it occupies. The necessity of some legislation to build up our merchant marine is teen on the face of the statistics. The sail tonnage of all nations has declined. with the substitution of steam as mo tive power. This change is inevitable where commerce demands speed and certainty in transportation. But the the steam tonnage of the United States shows a growth of but 68 per cent in the last twen'y-seven years, while Gp-at Britain has increased 311 per cent, France 200, Germany 693 and Rus- ia 4S0. "Our own share of our own carrying trade has diminished from 26.1 per cent to 8.) per cent in the last quarter of a century."' Our average construction of ocean steamships, most of them for the coasting trade only, has been 21,000 tons per year for the last ten years, while that 'of Great Britain has averaged tons for the same period. This is explained by the great differ ence In cost of construction and of op eration in this country as compared with others. However much American apltal may wish to go into this occu pation, it must consider the business roposltion; it must face a competition which has been thus far too severe to be met successfully. Cost of construc tion in Great Britain la from 20 to 25 per cent less than In the United States, and other foreign countries have a still reater advantage. Cost of operation Is shown by carefully compiled statistics to be from 30 to 40 per cent greater un der the American flag. This Is an In equality of conditions that must be remedied before we can hope to control any considerable share not merely of the world's carrying trade, but of our own. The bill which has been framed to accomplish this purpose, to add to the American merchant marine, to enable ships to be operated without loss and to assure the government of an ample resource of naval auxiliary cruisers and transports in case of war, consid ers the requirements and the claims of all sections. It appropriates In the ag gregate W.OOO.OOO a year for 20 years, to be distributed as a subsidy for the encouragement of commerce and the promotion of shipbuilding. Of this to tal V) per cent is assigned to the Paci fic trade; so that not less than 12,700,- 000 will be expended for the direct benefit of the carrying trade between Pacific ports and the Orient. This Is the feature of most Interest to our peo ple. We have not space to comment at length upon the numerous provisions of the bill, which can be studied as they are summarised in our news columns. Th j subsidy Is apportioned upon a slid ing scale, according to speed and ton nage, on distances actually stilled. Aid to commerce is secured by a condition which requires any vessel. In order to participate in the benefits of the act, to carry on Its outgoing voyage a cargo- equal to at least one-half of lis freight tonnage. The money paid out will thus, encourage eiport of our home products and the expansion of our for eign market. If. under the terms of the bill, more than 19.000.000 should be called for, the appropriation will not be increased, but that sum will be divided pro rata among those entitled to any payments undrr the terms of the act. Participation In the benefits of the act Is denied to those carrying merchan dise between Atlantic and Pacific ports with trans-shipment at the Isthmus, and to tank ships carrying oils. Every legitimate objrtion totheorlg- Inal bill has been met by the amend ments. The purpose of adding to the American marine could have been ac- compllshed more directly by payments for ships constructed Instead of by sub sidles conditioned on distances fall.-. I. If an average outright payment per ton were made on new construction, an ppropriation of 110,000,000 a year would make us the world's carrier with in ten years from date. But the pro posed method of apportionment has been adopted because It Is more famil iar to the public. The first Idi-a was to pay a tonnage bounty of so many cents on ea.-h ton of domestic merchandise leaving our ports for a foreign market. High authorities declared that this could not be done without the abroga tion of many treaties. Therefore, while this plan had to be abandoned, the principle of payment according to ton nage and distance sailed was retained. Such an act will be beneficent In many directions. It will stimulate and ereourage a grat Industry. It will restore our vanishing merchant flag to the seas. It will trarsfer to us event- ally a large share of the world's carry ing trade. It will place that Industry In such a position that it will presently reach out as our manufactures have done and control the trade of the world. It will strengthen our naval resources. Best of all. It will expand the market for our domestic products; it will ren der to the farmer. In the strengthen ing of prices and the increase of de mand, that assistance through federal legislation to which he Is entitled. In the Interests of America, at home and abroad, this measure should receive the united support of the republican party, with whose policy of protection and encouragement to home industry it Is In entire harmony. f My.
