WASHINGTON'S TURN TO ACT.
The Pacific Journal, of Ilwaco, says in
Its last Issue:
"The question of the jurisdiction, of the
Columbia river was heard by Judge Bel
linger and Judge Hartford last Monday;
up to this time o decision has been ren
dered. Whatever the decision may be,
however, it Is not likely that it will be
accepted as final, for although it is con
tended by McGuire that it is a friendly
suit, the Oregon papers (since they heard
the arguments) openly admit that the
decision Willi not be accepted unless it is
rs they desire."
This is Tldloulouf nonsense. The Jour
nal knows very well that It was stated
before ever the case was beard' that the
intention 'of Mr. McGulre In forcing the
suit was to obtain a decision one way
r the other which he doped would be
appealed to the supreme court and there
settled for all time. If the people of the
state of Washington are beaten by the
decision rendered by Judge Bellinger,
everybody hopes' that they will appeal
the case at once. If the Oregon com
missioner gets the worst of the present
controversy, then the people of this state
look to. him to force the issue and tike
it ' to Washington . iMost certainly the
Oregon papers have saZd and will say
again that "unless the decision Is as they
desire, it 'Will not be accepted."1 But
tiny Intend to act in this manner not
. from any degree of personal interest, but
simply in order to bring to Its conclusion
an argument that is becoming very tire
some and nauseating to all sensible peo
ple. Mr. McGuire,' referred to as the "kid
naper" and sundry other things too nu
merous to mention, seems to be still the
devoted victim on whose head most of
the abuse continues to fall. ' In fact, it
looks to us as if the cause of our breth
ren over the river is up a very tall tree
when they can find no other way to
ketp up the noise than by slobbery ti
rades of abuse that are both monotonous
and silly. The Oregon commissioner has
done all that he promised to do. He told
the Washington authorities that he would
give them the opportunity to finally set
tle the matter before the courts, and he
did It. Their turn has come, and they
wilt either have to force the question
to a finish and show their good faith,
or accept an adverse decision of the
lower court and keep quiet.
As far as the Oregon officers are con
cerned. If beaten in the present case,' they
will accept no adverse decision but will
do the only square thing and speedily
push the whole subject to Its Anal stage.
There Is nothing equivocal about that.
On June 28 ended the tenth month of
the work of the new tariff law. And its
record is indeed a sorry one. Although
it went into operation with, the whole
couutry waiting to buy goods which it
was expected to bring In lower rates, it
shows for Un months smaller treasury
receipts than did the IMcKlnley law In
the corresponding ten months of last
year, and infinitely less than did the Mc
Klnley law in Its first ten months. As
a "record breaker" the Wilson law stands
triumphant, but It Is a record of badness,
of an enormous deficiency. And) this, too,
in the face of smaller expenditures by
the treasury than in the same period for
mwny years. Not for years have the
expenditures been so low as during the
months in which the Wilson law has ben
in operation, yet it presents as the not
results of the ton' months a deficit of
2,007,131, hesldas omitting to make the
usjal payment of $48,000,000 on the sink'
V lng fund. No month in the history oi
the treasury for a quarter of a century
has shown such small receipts as did
many of the month since t'h new law
went Into effect. IHad it been compelled
to meet the ' demands made upon the
treasury under former tariff laws, the
deficiency would have been many mil
lions greater.
The chango In sentiment favorable to
the sound currency cause Is especially
marked In the South, "which has been
the stronghold of free silver outside of
the silver-producing states. AH trust
worthy information from that sed.lon
' Is to the effect that free silver sentiment
Is steadily declining. The action of the
Keutucky Democratic convention ha
had, as was expected, a roott excellent
effect In this direction. The declaration
of the Democrats of that state against
free sliver, afur one of the most vigor
ous contests ever made on any question,
was a trumpet blast for a sound curren
cy that was heard :n every state of tht
Sou-h with telling effect. Three months
ago the state of Georgia would have giv
en a majority for fre sliver. It is be
lieved by those who are welt informed
tha. if the question were now submitted
to the vours of that state a very large
!.).. .r'.'.y would be found cgalnst free
silver. A few weeks ago the free silver
men of Georgia issued a call for a con
vention of Democrats iwho favored the
free coinage of silver at the present ra
tio to meet at Atlanta today. Thus far
the Indications are that the proposed
convention will be a flat failure. All over
the South sound money dubs are being
uigacLiid, And accessions to the number
of sound money newspapers are of almost
da.ly occurrence. There is no doubt there
has been a great falling off In free sliver
sentiment In the northwest, and it is by
no means certain that even In the .lvr
prod'uclng states It is as strong today as
it was a month ago. Certainly it seems
to have lost some of Its aggressiveness,
Judging by the fiasco of the Denver Dem
ocratic free silver convention. Th moot
effective argument against the free sil
ver fallacies is the Industrial and busi
ness Improvement, and tins Is everywhere
exerting Its Influence in behalf of a
sound currency. We shall know by to
morrow what effect the common sense
reasoning of the last few months has had
on the Democrats of the state of Geor
gia. .
After carefully reviewing the whole
business situation in the city, and wkh
a view to accommodating ourselves to
the purses of our patrons as much as
possile, we have decided to make sweep
ing reductions in the advertising rates
that govern Insertions In the Weekly
Astorlan. In future the weekly will ca
ter to every class of legitimate advertis
ing business, and more particularly to
legal and other public notices, which will
be accepted for Insertion in its columns
at greatly reduced prices. The schedule
of ratea can be obtained on application
at this office. The Weekly Astorlan is
credited In the various circulation re
ports issued by publishers of . all the
newspaper directories, with THE LARG
EST CIRCULATION off any weekly in
the state of Oregon outside of the Ore
gonlan. It publishes every week over
F0RTY-6IX COLUMNS of solid reading

"SILVER KNIGHTS," OR ASSES.
The little cllaua or third mirtv rraa.. li
ver: teg, of which Senator Stewart, of
Nevada, is the hanil. hum maito .n mti
progress that Its movement already seems
to be a failure, Hsnm it mmih.r hi
resolved to try . to iwork for the same
end along a new line. They have or-
g.mizeu & secret society ror political pur

in iva.nngton, tnough chartered at Al
exandria. Va.. u a. rnmnraHin Thow
call themselves "The Supreme Temple.
fciiver Knlirhts of Ameri " .nH th
charter shows the main object to be "to
secure me live coinage of silver by the
united mates government, to make sil
ver when coined a legal tender for all
et.'bts. and to ballect
(n furtherance o'f said purposes." Of
tuu'oD uca.uur v7itrwari jb me presiueni.
Among the other officers and directors
are two iex-memlbers of congress, and it
is claimed that a great number of the
representatives are identified with the
movement. Clerks ore now at twork in
preparing and sending out appeals, and it
is mm me iiierary 'Dureau is to be one
of the moat important features of the
organisation. An effort is to Ibi made to
form "Silver Knight" lodges In as many
places as possible throughout 'the land.
Access to the lodge rooms Is to be gamed
only by means of passwords and signs,
and the discussions are to to! kept se
cret, but It w.ll ibe left with the different
lodges to decide whether or mot they will
maintain sscrecy in regard to the local
membership, as the A. P. A.'s are said
to do.
This secret society claptrap may at
tract a few of the more silly ones among
the pople who have listened with more
or less approval to the false statements
and bad logic of the old propaganda
which now Is trying to take on a new
form. But It hardly will Increase the
number o'f the deluded ones, and if "dis
cussions" be permitted and encouraged
at the lodge meetings the result Will be
a split Inside the) ranks. For thi mem
bers will not spend the whole of their
time In those lodge-rooms, but will hear
more or less of what is said In favor of
honest moniey where not grips or pass
words are needed to listen to the truth.
The leading spirits are quoted as point
ing to the history of Knownothlngism
OS a nOtnlllA AVtrlJinnA fit whA a un,,)
society may do In political affairs. But
' 'uiejr may cub i4ie nisiory or me
"Knights of the Golden Circle," and
some other secnet associations to prove
the folly of expecting success by such
means in a free country. Most decidedly
Che Knotwnothlng movement did not re
sult in the exclusion of foreigners from
office In the United tSates and It soon
died out, an acknowledged failure.
It Is probable tWe class of literature
that will be sent out by the free silver
propaganda will' fall flat upon the ears
of the American people. They already
have heard ad nauseum the statements
.about the kind of money the people of a
century ago supposed they wanted, and
the a.cff&itlons that silver was fraudu
lently "demonetised" In 1873. Not a tvr
of them have become convinced that the
thoughts and Intentions of the men of
lm may have ti.en susceptible of Im
provement to meet the needs of modern
business activity, and that the talk about
"demonetisation" Is nonsenaa in view of
the fact that In the last seventeen! years
we have built up -tin volume of our sil
ver money to at least an equality with
gold in amount, and have sustained the
PirUy In the only way that could be
done without changing the ratio. They
and thie rest will be very apt to say- to
themselves between this and election
time In lm that the great question now
is to decide how pnsent conditions can be
Improved upon ff they are to be changed
at ull. They w.ll reason that the stage
coach anl the canal boat for travel and
transportation, the general use of wood
for fuel, and the employment of candles
and lamps supplied with Whale oil for
Illumination Were very good things in
their day, but have bin Improved upon
so vastly that no man in his senses now
wishes to go back to them. Tha probabil
ity Is that if the contemplated silver
lodces are (established some of the dis
cussions will include a reference to these
facta and the question If the argument
for frea silver on a basis that would
exclude all ,the gold money is not as silly
as would be the plea for abandoning the
use of steam on land and water, giving
up coal, electricity, and gas,' and going
back to tha primitive usages of former
generations for the sake of a supposed
consistence with history.
HANDSOME OAK IN AMERICA.

very rapidly, It ts not impossible that
It was planted with Its mate on the other
side of the drive when the house was

and the branches, Which spread 123 feet
In one direction and 119 In another. This
tree is growing over a bed of phosphate,
and the demands of trade will, there
fore, probably cause Its destruction be
fore Its time. More than once we have
visited this tree and each .visit has In
creased our reverence for nature, as we
stood In the presence of this wonderful
expression of her power. No one who
has not seen the Drayton oak can form

fifty species of oaks that grow within
the borders of the United States, or
of all that nature In a supreme effort
at tree growing can produce. Garden

DONT FORGET THE OLD FOLKS.
Nay, don't forget the old folks, boys
they've not forgotten you;
Though years have passed since you were
home, the old hearts still are true!
And not a night e'er passes by they
hav;n't the desire
To see your faces once again, and hear
your footsteps nlgher.
So write them now and then 'twill bring
fresh light unto their eyes,
And make the world grow bright awhile
and bluer gleam the skies!
You're young and buoyant, and for you
Hope holds her outstretch'd hands,
And life spreads oat a waveless sea,
that laps but tropic strands;
The world Is all beforo your face, but
let your thoughts oft turn
To where fond hearts still cherish you
and loving bosoms yearn.
And write ths old folks now and then
'twill gladden fading eyes.
And make the world glow bright again
And bluer gleam) the skies.
No matter what ycur duties are, and
what your place In life.
There's never been a time they'd not as
sume your load of strife;
And shrunken shoulders, trembling hands
and forms racked by disease,
Would go down to the grave to bring to
you Ihe pearl of peace!
So write them now and then 'twill bring
the light into their eyes,
And make the world grow bright awhile
and bluer gleam the skies!

VOYAGES FOR PLEASURE
Or business, persons on the point of
talcing am "outimg" oni land or sea,
yachtsmen and tourists need and should
be provided with some preventive of
sea sickness and corrective of the oc

when traveling by rail. They, too, re
quire a , medicinal safeguard. The best
in existence is llostetter's Stomach B.t
Vrs, which promptly relieves nausea,
sick headache, biliousness, cramps and
col.c, etc. If business calls you to some
locality where ch.lls and fever or bilious
remittant is prevalent, don't fall to pro
vide yourself with it. For constipation,
rheumatism and inactivity of the kidneys
It is an excellent remedy. Eminent phy
rlelana commend It highly. Lay In a sup
ply before you start by boat, steam -r
-or train. It is a most serviceable
traveling companion.
ELECTRIC BITTERS.
Electric Bitters Is a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed In the spring, -when the languid
exhausted feeling Is prevailing, when th
liver is torpid and sluggish and the need
of a tonic and alterative Is felt. A
prompt use cf this medicine has often
aVtMed long and perhaps fatal bilious
fevers. No medicine will act more surely
4n counteracting and freeing the system
from the malarial poison. Headache, In
Atf stlon, constipation, diaxiness, yield
to Electric Bitters. Only (0 rents per

MARVELOUS RESULTS.
From a letter written by Rev. J. Gun
derman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are
permitted to make this extract: "1
have no hesitation in recommending
Dr. King's New Discovery, as the re
sults were almost marvellous in the
case of my wife. While I was pastor
of the Baptist Church at Rives Junc
tion, she was brought down with
Pneumonia, succeeding La Grippe. Ter
rible paroxysms of coughing wculd last
hours with little interruption and It
seemed as if she could not survive
them. A friend recommended Dr.
King's New Discovery; it was quick in
Its work, and satisfactory In Its re
sults." Trial bottles free at Chas.

The objections urged against Indio
in the past by the large numbers who
otnerwise would have been glad to tak
advantage of its beneficial climate, has
been a lack of suitable accommoda
tion. The Southern Pacific Company,
takes pleasure in announcing that sev
eral Commodious and

have Just been erected at Indio sta

at reasonable rates. They are fur

"In the heart of the great desert cl
the Colorado which the Southern Pa
cific road traverses there is an oasis
called Indio, which, In our opinion, li
the sanitarium of the earth. We be
lieve, from personal Investigation, thai
for certain Invalids, tne-e is no spot oi
this planet so favorable."
G. T. Stewart, M. D., writes,: "Tlu
nurlty of tho air, and the eternal sun
shine, fill one with wonder and delight
Nature has accomplished Bc
much that there remains but little for
man to do. As to its possibilities as a
health resort, here Is tne most per
fect sunshine, with a temperature al
ways pleasant, a perfectly dry soli
for rain Is an unknown factor; pure
oxygen, denP9 atmosphere and pure
water. What more can be desired?
It Is the place, above all others, for
lung troubles, and a paradise for rheu
matics. Considering the number of
sufferers who have been cured, I have
no hesitancy in recommending this
genial oasis as the haven of the afflict
ed."
