The Astorian guarantees to Its ad vertisers :he largest circulation of any newspaper rubllshed on the Columbia river. Advertising rate can be had on ep ilation to the business manager. The Raker City Republican, evident ly the official organ of the O. R, A N.. is very much worried because Astoria and the intelligent agricultural Inter ests are "asking the O. R. & N. to pay the extra 100 miles baul on wheat from Port'and to Astoria." Later on In the same article th? befuddled Repub lican wants U know ''how the nere ex tension of the Portland rate to Astoria, when the ships can come 100 miles ntarer to the farm for cargo, can pos sib:y add or penny to the farmers' profits." To a person of at least or dinary Intel'lgence It will be readily apparent that the knowledge for which the Republican seeks Is to be found In th first quotation given above. Toe fact Is that the O. R. & X. receives the same amount as that charged by the Northern Pacific for hauling grain to Portland, yet their line Is down grade and less than half as long. No one claims that the Northern Pacific !s Klng money and. If it U not, it is very evident that the O. R. N. is making exorbitant profits. The d.-livery of its grain at Astoria would be no hardship to the company and. by saving to vessels the expense of towage and delay occasioned by going "10 miles l earr to the farm." would mean ch eap er charter and consequent higher pries paid the wheat producers. It's a simple proposition and one that anyone can understand excepting only those who don't wish to understand it There is no reason why Astoria, a city much more easily reached from the wheat fields than either Tacoma or Se attle, should not have freight rates equally a9 low. and the time is near when these rates will be given us. The advantages derived by Astoria will be h significant compared with the profit to the farmers of the wheat belt, who are so badiy misrepresented by a fe' organs like the Republican. JUST SO. Port Oregon Tribune. Every newspaper in Eastern Oregon and Washington that is interested in the welfare of the fanners should urge "the common point rate" for Astoria. 3 THE SHIP SUBSIDY "ANTIS." New York Press. Some sort of ship nubsidy bill will un doubtedly be passed either by the fifty sixth congress at its last or the fifty seventh at its first session. It may not be that now before the houses, vastly improved as that measure has been out of its original speed premium shape. Warned by the experience of the St. Louis convention In declaring for the alluring and logical but impracticable revival of discriminating navigation laws, the body which net at Phlladel- Lazy Livers are many riraea tba cause of Tartans dwrna.

They eoat Zio asd caji be procured at FRANK HART. Successor to Th. Olsen. 600-J Com. St. phla committed Itself only to 'legisla tion which will enable us to recover our former place among the trade-carrying fleets of the World.'' Such place would not have een re gained merely by the building of "ocean flyers," as plannej In the firm Hanna Payne bill. Nor la It certain that It will be even now by the inclusion of vessels down to the twelve-knot cap city. The bulk of the world's commerce Is carried at nine knots, nor until some iuite unforeseen economhe in the fuel ing and manning of ships are devised will It be carried faster. A great many nine-knot ships could be put out with the subsidy of a wry few twenty-one and nineteen and seventeen-knot ships. And when they were, our STwIooVam) agricultural exports (ten months of l.X) would travel In American tottoms. Some t.uch law as that outlined wiii be passed. It w 111 not be because the Phil adelphia platform declares for it. This legislation ia a matter of party policyanj not nccrssarily party principle, and par ty faith would not be broken by a fail are to enact It. It will be passed be cause there no other possible way of reviving our shipping, and it is ur.busi nesslike, wasteful ind extravagant to allow our shipping to languish further. This truth is nowhere so plainly dm- onstrated a in an examination of the arguments against such a measure. Not one, so far as we have been able to ob serve, fits existing conditions. Each Is beside the point, is aimed In the air. For instance, the New Tork Times, stretching its limbs and rubbing its eyes aftr a nap in ihe Catskills, mum bles drowsily the old formula of "free shit." Let the American who wants to freigh: goods be permitted to buy his freighter abroad, is lis time-h.;nored recommendation. But if the American bought hid ship abroad he would have to have a subsidy to man it at home. It is not the ccst of the building that keeps American vessels out of the for eign trade. Thanks to protection and domestic competition, the price of an American ship is no longer so largely in excess of that of a foreign ship as to make the difference between profit and loss in the shipping trade. The In creased investment owing to the employ. ment of American yards by shipown ers will not, to meet its interest charge, call for an appreciable portion cf the subsidy. It Is not the cost of making', but the cost of running a ship at the American wage rate that counts. It Is that v.hich gives a foreigner the advan tage of at least one Atlantic voyage a year. The "free ship" shibboleth is as anarchistic a survival of good old col ony times, economically, as was "God save King George!" of good old col ony times, politically. So the smug, self-contained observa tion of the Boston Evening Record as '' to the time and period of our lead in the abundance and cheapness of fuel and steel" being the "least logical" of all "occasions for the passage of -i ship subsidy bill," is for the same reason merely inane. We are not to subsidize shipbuilders, but shipowners. It is wages and not material which supply the prohibitive obstacle to their pur uit of foreign trade which the subsidy would overcome. The great increase In shipbuilding is taken by other journals, notably the Evening Post, as an argument against the bill. But this not merely micses the mark. It rebounds in boomerang fashion. There is no Increase worthy of mention, as we have before demon strated from the commissioners' reports, save in the protected shipping trade. Cuyahoga Creek, not the Delaware, is the Clyde of America. The fresh water town of Cleveland has taken the palm irom generations of Philadelphia ship wrights. Our great steel tonnage is be ing laid down 500 miles from the ocean. It Is there and In the increased coasting trade to Hawaii and Porto Rico that nine-tenths of our unsubsidized lncreas? of shipbuilding Is found. The other one-tenth is due to the expectation of the subsidy. The big Pacific freighters wero ord?r d as soon as the twelve-knot amendment went into the bill. No one, we fancy, today gives much heed to the parrot cries of "steal" at tins appropriation of public money. Ev ery one Interested in the subject knows by this time that no nation's commerce has been developed except by such a "steal." This is the single industry which universal experience has indi cated as the proper recipient of a boun ty. Germany may subsidize beet sugar, Japan cotton manufactures, Canada beef cattle, but all countries, except the United States, subsidize ship. In conse quence international commerce has grown in the last century 1,233 per cent, while international population ha grown 135 per cent. If one cannot in- diet a people, how can one Indict a world? The Philadelphia Ledger is, however, a conspicuous example of the Journal which attempt it in relation to Ihe ship subsidy bill. It can see noth big tn it but " a gift of the great sum of ISOrtO.OOO to a few shipbuilder and shipowners out of tbe pockets of the people." The 00,000,000 of foreign freights wlikh this sum will reclaim to the "pockets of the people" is beyond Its line of vision. Thl Is the saddest case among the ship subsidy "antla," A policy against which every shaft alined fall with such foolish futility to the ground is certain of adoption through the Intrinsic cogency of It merits. - There Is no decaying merchant or Ihvarl beggar hath so many trliks to uphold the ortMit of their wealth as empty perils have to ma'ntaln the t red U of their sufficiency. 10 CISC X C0U IX ONS DAY Take Laxative Rromo Quinine Tablets.

Thurness. of Wills Creek Cal to., Buftalo, O.. writes: "I have been atl'lcted w ith kldn.y and bladder troub le for years, passing gravel or stones with excruciating pain. Other medi cines only gave relief. After taking roieys Kianey Cure the result was sur prising. A few doses started th brick lust, like fine stonea etc., and now I have no pain across my kidneys, and I feel like a new man. Foley's Kidney Cure did ma 11000 worth of good." fake no substitute. CHAS. ROGERS. Druggist. Long and curious speeches are as fit for dispatch as a robe or mantle with a long train is for a race. The nrann vhA 4!Mtrhh1 f ha Ain. fregation last Sunday by coughing. U requested to can on wnarie nogers and ret a bottle of Foley's H,n,v ami Tar. It always gives relief. Business Is bought at a dear hand. where there is s nut II dispatch. Cold and cough cures are numerous. but the one that leads all others tn merit, is Foley's Honey and Tar. which is in great demand these days. CHAS. ROGERS. Druggist. It were better, that In causes of weight, the matt-T were propounded one d3y. and not poken of till the next day. FOR PNEUMONIA. Dr. C. J. Bishop. Agntw, Mich., says: 'I have uaed Foley's Honey and Tar tn three very severe case of pneumonia with good results In every case." There is nothing so good. CHAS. ROGERS. Druggiat. It Is true that what is settled by cus tom, though it be not good, yet at 1, ast It is fit. FOR HOARSENES8. Benj. Ingerson, of Hutton, Ind., says he had not spoken a word above a whisper for months, and one bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar restored his voice. It is used largely by speakers and singers. Take no substitute. CHAS ROGERS. Druggist. It were good that men In their In novations would follow th example of time itself, which indeed lnnovateth greatly, but quietly, and by decrees scarce to be perceived: for. otherwise, whatsoever Is now is unlooked for, and ever It mends some and pairs others; and he that Is holpen takes it for a fortune, and thanks the time, and he that is hurt, for a wrong, and imputeth it to the author. THE BEST SALVE IN HE WORLD is Banner Salve. It I,s made from a CLfscrlptiwn by a widely known skin socialist and positively is the most healing salve for plies, burns, scalds, ulcers, running sores and all skin dls -. There is nothng so good. CHAS. ROGERS. Druggist. Affected dispatch Is one of the most dangerous things to business that can be.
