The Astoria News makes an
earnest appeal to tbo citizen of
Astoria to rally for on organized
figlit against fish-wheels and trar s.
It urges the holding of imss meetings
and the framing of resolutions to the
legislatures of Oregon and Washing
ton and, in the event of these bodies
refusing to heed their demands, an
ultimate appeal to the general gov
eminent for the desired relief. It
asks if the people of Oregon are
going ' to permit the ruination of
their fisheries that "a few trap and
wheel-owners nay be enriched," and
if the city at the mouth of the Colum
bia is "to continue to bo a city or a
roere way station for a few trap and
whel-owncrs a fishing halinet with
out fish."
It does not seem to have occurred
to the News that the thousands of
gill nets and other murdering devices
used on the lower river ever do the
least bit of injury to the fishing in
dustry, or tend to lessen the annual
catch, yet in the local column of the
same issue of July 21st that demands
summary aoolition of the wheels,
the News informs its readers that
"one gill net man is reported to have
caught over a ton," the night befote,
"another about half a ton, while
others made catches varying all the
way from 1"0 to i00 pounds," and
"at Crcscott's cold-storage warehouse
the deliveries were about twelve
tons, including steelheads, up to six
o'clock this morning, while at Alter's
and Schmidt iSrothers' the receipts
were still greater." In etill another
paragraph the News informs us that
"at his two seining grounds, yester
day, W. E. Tallant got four tons of
salmon. The Fitzpalrick ground
yielded the greater part, beiug cred
ited with three tons."
Let the News compare its own re
port of one night's catch with gill
nets and 9eines on the lower river
with the fact that scoies of wheel?
on the upper river have not made
running expenses during the season
thai many of them have done prac
tically nothing and not one in i
score has made money for its owner,
' and then say if it is not possib'.e
that the trouble that agitates the
minds of the good people of Astoria
does not find its cause a liille nearer
home?
Lei such legislation for the preser
vation of the salmon fishing industry
as is necessary and equitable be en
acted, but let the News be well
assured that the legislators of Clat
sop county have a big contract on
their hands when they undertake to
have laws passed that will discrimi
Dale against every salmon-killing
device that cannot be used with
profit by the fishermen of Astoria.
justice for himself. We believo it
is the first time that a charge of im
morality has been urged as a good
reason for conferring senatorial hon
ors. As well might Mr. Corbett's
opponent in this suit ask for vindica

biought asainsl him by Mr. Corbett,
and in Addition ho might ask the

The charge tlat theie ia any

VINDICATION WANTED.
Hon. II. W. Corbett, of Portland,
having been made defendant ia a
damage suit charged with alienating
some woman's wifely affections,
promptly responds by announcing
himself as a candidate for the United
States senate, and the Oregonian
insists that it is the duty of the
people of Oregon, by their reprcsen
tatires in the legislature, to "vindi
cate" Mr. Corbett, and not "strike
him down in his old age with calumny
and distrust." It is a pitiful and
ridiculous appeal, a disgraceful at
tempt to play upon the sympathies
of the people in order to secure a
verdict from an incompetent tribunal.
It is the "plain duty" of the legisla
ture to put aside all prejudice and
send to the Ucitetl States the man
best qualified to serve the interests
of the slate of Oregon, and not to
resolve itself into a committee of
the whole to investigate the charges
of improper conduct brought by one
citizen against another citizen. That
is the duty of the courts, and as Mr,
Corbett is amply able to employ
learned counsel and take every ad
vantage of the law, no one can
doubt that be will secure at least
They do tbings differently oyer in
British Columbia. When a party of
1500 fishermen, attached to the forty
seven canneries at Steveston, refused
the other day to fish or allow any
body else to fish, a rtquisition signed
by three Steveston magistrates
brought promptly to the scene of the
strikers three companies of militia
whose commanding officer informed
the rioters that his men had not
come there for amusement, but for
business; that each man. had twenty-
four rounds of ball cartridges, ami
that at the first sign of inlcifcrence
with the men who desired to work
at the wages offered by the canneries
his men would fire, and that the
woik would be short and quick.
"The strikers," we are told, "were
so much surprised at that kind of
talk that all idea of violence was
temporarily banished from their
minds." In this country the author
ities would have temporized with
the mob till a score or two of in
nocent persons had been murdered.
The civil officer who would be in
btrumental in calling out the militia
would be damned by al! the dema
gogues from Idaho to. Lincoln, Ne
braska, He would bo branded as a
tyrant, a subsidized hireling of plu
tocracy, an agent of the money
power, a usurper and an imperialist.
The Sulzers and Lentzes and Townes
and Fettigrews and Sovereigns would
make the air blue with demagogic
appeals on behalf of liberty and
human rights; when as a fact the
only right involved in tho whole
business is the right for a man to
sell his labor to whom he pleases,
and at what price he pleases; a right,
deprived of which, a man is a slave
indeed.
Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts,
has been asked to join the democratic
party, and in reply that statesman
has had the following published:
"If you think you can best help the
cause of liberty and true republican
ism by voting for the men who are
for the free coinage of silver at 16
to 1, by voting for men who are for
refusing 10,000,000 American citi
zens suffrage at borne, for over
throwing the independence of the
supreme court, and for destroying
the safeguards of property and
American labor, very well. Go your
way and do your duty as you see it
I shall do mine as I see it, and I
think I can best do it by speaking as
a republican to republicans; by keep
ing my right to speak as a counselor
and associate of the men who have
wrought everything that has been
wrought for liberty in this country
since the treaty of peace in 1783,
and not as the associate or through
the instrumentality of the party or
men who have been ranged for sixty
years on the side of kspotlsm and
oppression, of dishonor andoflo
wages."
fruit interest, the toEacco interest,
and other protected industries in this
country, the republican party sees
Gt to treat the island as if it were
ao alien land, to be taxed without
representation and, what is worse,
without any constitutional authority
on our part to levy the tax.
"If we can tax these people with
out asking their consent, and simply
because we have tho power to do so,
what is to stand in the way of con
gre3s treating a state in the same
way ?"
Well, what about tho case of
Alaska, which is as much a part of
United States territory as l'orlo
Kico?
The same congress which passed
tbo l'orto Rico act, imposing tem
porarily a tariff there which is not
uniform throughout tbo United
States, passed also the Alaska net,
imposing an elaborate system of
excise taxes peculiar to that ter
ritory, and consequently not uniform
throughout the United States.
If one of these two acts is uncon
stitutional, so is the other. If one
is an' instance of taxation without
representation, so is the other. If
Porto Rico is treated "as if it were
an alien land," so is Alaska. If one
territory is subjected to "government
without the consent of the governed,"
so is tho other. If there is any out
rage, or departure from American
principles, or indication of the deciy
of repnhlican institutions iu one case,
so is there in the other case.
Why not bo honest and denounce
the republican party for "imperial
ism" in Alaska if you are going to
denounce it for "imperialism" in
Porto Uico and the Philippines?
A democrat exchange learns that
Eugene Debbs, the candidate of the
socialists for president, will with
draw from the race in favor ot Bryan.
Why should he not? If there is not
enough of socialism and free riot in
Bryanism to suit Debbs ho must be
might- hnrd to please.

temporarily yielded to an emotional de
lusion. In l'JOO bit following is seen to
comprise those who are collectively as
chronically insane, on certain important
public subjects, as a solitary inmate of
an asylum is individually crazy on some

danger. Tbat which follows him and
which calls itself the democracy is now
the concrete embodiment of tbe danger

1896 the American people supposed they
were fighting a wind storm. In 1900
they realize that tbey are fighting a com
pact onion of all the arrant and vicious
forces that can be marshaled under the
banner of a demagogue and thatcan
make politic their pretext, while they
really hav revolution as their object.

NO IMPERIALISM IX Ol'lVX.
Our contemporary suggests that if
Roosevelt were honest be would fire
Van Wyck ou t of the New York
mayorship. It may be. But, as
suming Roosevelt has the power to
fire Van Wyck, which is doubtful,
if be made tbe attempt there is not a
Bryanite sheet in all this broad land
that would not denounce the act as
inspired by base, political deviltry
and a sample of high-handed im
perialism. If there is any firing to
be done why docs not tbe Bryanitcs
take the initiative and, themselves,
Ore this trust magnate from the place
of honor that he holds in tbe councils
of the party ?

Before next November thoughtful
and reasonable men of all parlies
will understand how great is the
peril to their own and the national
prosperity invited by Bryanism, and
will govern themselves accordingly.
PERTINENT PRESS COMMENT.
Bryan and Stevenson are to be form
ally notified of their nomination at In
dianapolis August 8th. "Won't they be
surprised, though?" exclaims tbe Che
lan Leader.
Tbe Chinese have one regiment of
men made up of tigers, who are to ter
rify the enemy by howling. This is a
base infringement upon the populist
mode of campaigning. Washington
Post.
Chairman Jones advances sixteen rea
sons why Mr. Bryan will win. All of
tbera are like the sixteen ounces of sil
ver to one of gold, not worth over 48 per
cent of the one reason why Bryan won't
be elected because he can't get votes
enough. Telegram.
A democratic exchange says that nine
ty percent of the commercial travelers
are for Bryan this year, whereas 05 per
cent of them were for McKinley four
years ago. An equally reliable republi
can organ says that "tbe traveling men
are for McKinley to a man." And
there you are. Telegram.
The Tacoma ledger observes that
"from the president, who believed in
preserving the honor and credit of the
nation, to the candidate that would sac
rifice them; from the man who would
not hesitate to suppress riot and insur
rection to the demagogue who would in
cite; from Cleveland to Bryan Is a long,
flying leap. But that acrobatic mug
wump, ex revolutionist of '48, Carl
Schnrz, has made it."
Here is another proof that a secret al
liance exists between this country and
England. British flags are made in
large quantities in this country. The
manufacturers, of course, receive their
price for tbe (roods, but any democrat
can see with ball an eye that onr gov
ernment would not permit this manu
facture of tbe emblem of British oppres
sion and tyranny in this country if there
were not some secret alliance in exist
ence. Minneapolis Journal.
In 1890 Mr. Bryan was regarded as a
dreamer and a declalmor. In 1900 be Is
seen to be a dictator. Ia 1896 his fol-
"To establish a colonisl govern
ment in the Philippine Islands will
necessitate a vast standing ormy.
The army is under the control of
the president, and what is there to
hinder him turning the army at any
time upon his own people, and de
claring himself a monarch?" Es
teemed Contemporary.
Everything is to hinder, you dear,
timorous, frightened darling. Every
thing is to hinder. McKinley, him
self, stands in the way, for there is j
not a scintilla of monarch in Lis i
make-up. The man w ho bared his I
youthful breast to rebel bullets In
order that the American Union
might be maintained and the flag
preserved, without a stripe erased
or a star dimmed, is not the material
out of which monarchs Arc made.
Several hundred thousand, brainy,
Gghting, big fisted republican editors,
and moulders of public opinion stand
in the way; men who love this coun
try, Us institutions, its constitution,
its declaration of independence and
its present and future glory. These
stand in the way. And seven million
stalwart, republican voters stand in
the way; men whose boast it is that
they belong to tbo party who pre
served the Union that tho fathers
founded, and in whose ranks there
never breated a traitor to his coun
try or its flag. TliC30 stand in the
way; and if more were needed,
millions of democrats, North and
South, and millions of Bryanitcs
East and West, who now roll their
eyes an.i tear their hair in presence
of a phantom of their own creation,
could surely bo relied on to cast
their javelins at the spook, should it
ever evolve itself from airy nothing
ness and clothe itself in the trappings
and habiliments of reality. J

Of the prndnctof this well-known brewery tbe United States Health

the labratory of the United States Health reports. It is absolutely devoid
of the slightest trace of adulteration, but on the other hand is coxposod of
tlie best of malt and choicest of hops. Its tonic qualities are of the high

young. Its use can conscientiously be prescribed by tbe physicians with
the cersainty that a better, purer or more wholesome beverage could not
possibly be found."
