that brings contentment and happiness
regardless of the estate of their fellow-
creatures. But there Is good reason to J
believe the majority, large majority, of !
the jieople of Portland thore engaged
In or dependent upon moderate sized
trade occupations: the middle class of
professional men and such few skilled
artisans as have not been farced to go
to other localities to find occupation,
and are obliged to rely upon the Irregu
lar, fitful demands of the Portland
market-a!l this class, from repeated j
observation and inquiry, are Just as
dissatisfied with the net returns on
their brain or muscle investments as
any newspaper man outside of Port
. lend whose struggles have lately at
tracted the feeling notice of the Oregon
Ian. Now, the reason why this large
and predominating class of Port
land people do not rise up In their
strength and smite the obstacles In
their path of progress cast out, as it
were, the money changers who are de
filing and prostituting the temple of
Portland's and Oregon's opportunities.
Is because every avnue of honest In
formation as to the origin and cause
of their misfortunes is sedulously kept
closed to them. It Is to ameliorate
the condition of this little better than
heathen element of Portland's popuia
tion, by pointing out the ways and
means of the self hWp that lies within
their1 grasp, that the Astoriun has tak
en up the mission of enlightenment and
reason in whkh it has been engaged
for many years. But to return to
the story of the Irene, as one example
of the necessity for the spread of true
knowledge bearing upon the questions
of vital concern to the average Port
lander. Without the Astorian's dili
gence. energy and perseverance it
would je believed In Portland, outside
of the few inside of the knowing circle,
that China steamers of the tonnage

February' ih, four days ago. A
member-an humble ami distant mem
ber ot the Portland chamber of com

ous argument with an Astori.w repre
sentative that no ship In two ems. had
suffered any detention whatever In
passing from Portland to the sea, ex
cept In getting out of the lower end
of the vile Astoria harbor. This, he
asserted, he knew to be a positive fact
because he had seen it so stated In an
Oregonlan article. Perhaps the Btory
of the Irene will be a revelation to
this Bright Portland chamber of com
merce member. Perhaps It may In
duce hint to seek further information

WHY SEATTLE LEADS.
Post-Intelllgencer.
The Astorlan Is the one paper in Ore
gon which points out that the
recent agreement by which the Clear
water country has been abandoned by-
the I'nljn Pacific to the Northern Pa-
cmc , return for trackase privileges
j to Puget sound, means the inevitable
j loss to the Oregon city of more trade,
j a fact which the oregonlan has per
! sistetitly attempted to ignore.
In its comment on this subject the
Astoriun says: "If that gteat paper
tthe Oregonian) had been as vigorous
in guarding Oregon's commercial In
terests years ago as it w ill be a little
later in denouncing the combinations
which are existing against her, Oregon
and not Washington would now be the
greatest state in the Northwest, and
Portland, not Seattle, would be the fu
ture greatest city on the Pacific coast."
The mistake of the Astorian is in
imagining that any newspaper action
could d.-lay the Inevitable trend of
commercial development, and in its
theory that the railroad combinati in
referred to Is dictated by a desire to
discriminate against any particular
locality. Nature has fixed the site of
one of the great commercial cities of
the world on Puget sound. Between
rival cities of equal natural advantages
the one whose citizens have superior
activity and enterprise will gain the
advantage; and when the tide once
starts in its direction It will speedily
gain such a lead that Its rival can
never again expect to overtake It. Like
attracts like. The city whose Inhabi
tants are active, enterprising and public-spirited,
who are swift to take ad
vantage of every opportunity to ex
tend their trade and build up their
town, Is sure to attract to It the moit
enterprising and far-seeing newcomers.
After its position Is once established,
Its further growth is due to the cumu
lative effect of the same agencies which
gave It the original lead over Its op
ponents. This Is preclsfly what has
built up Seattle.
Railroads do not enter Into combina
tions which In their results Injuriously
affect the trade of certain towns out
of any spiteful desire to Injure those
localities. Cold business reasons are
tho sol actuating impulse. So In the
case at hand. The trade of Lewlston
and the Clearwater country has gone
In great part to Portland and the O.
R. & N. In the past. When the North
ern Pacific started to build Its lines
In that country It naturally brought
on a conflict with the Union Pacific.
which controls the O. R. & N. system.
That conflict has been compromised
on a business basis, and the conces
sions made on both sides are squarely
In the Interest of Seattle, as they are
squarely opposed to the Interests of
Portland.
Th Union Pacific, with sound busi
ness judgment, considers that an op
portunity to secure trackage facilities

WOMEN MUST WEEP. NOT KILL.
Philadelphia Tim-s.
William T. Stead Is authority for the
statement that the Boers now Intend
to put their women in the trenches to
shoot Englishman. This is done, he
says, rather enigmatically, to make ,
the English pay Kruger's "price that
will utagger humanity." Aside from J
the horror to the Amtrlcan rolnd at
the thought of having to shoot or bay
onet women, the mind that con reived
this audacity of the century will be
be found to be In sad error. Granting
that the women shoot as well as the
men, they may be assured that "Tom
my Atkins" will not discriminate as
to their sex. He will kill just as he has
been told to do In Ashantee, In the Sou
dan and among 'he hill tribes of
Northern India. Why should a Boer
woman awaken sympathy in his heart
when she is trying to kill him? By
every law of warfare, this is a case
In which sex cannot be considered.
The Boers, It is to be hoped, will not
take thin step. They are not barbar-
iuns. Stead, with all his Boer hympa
thles, allows his gluttony for the sen-
Fational to suggest such a "owardly
subterfuge on the part of a brave peo
ple General Sherman truly said, "War Is
hell:" An Apathe raid Is perhaps the
most horrible military affair Imagina
ble. The women who accompany the
braves execute the tortures and per
form the mutilations of the prisoners.
They build the fires upon the stomachs
of the captives staked prone upon the
earth.
Ask "Pecos Bill" whether the troops
unuer nis command ever spared a
sqauw because of her sex?
J. B. Clark, Peoria, III., aays: "Sur
geons wanted to operate on me for plies,
but I cured them with DeWltt's Witch
Hazel Salve." It la Infallible for pile
