All communications Intended for psb tlcation 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 vertisers the largest circulation of any newspaper published on the Columbia river. Advertising rates can be had on ap- ! plication to the business manager. An Interesting communication on the light question appears In an other column. The writer Is a well- Known local business man. He points . out the folly of further delay in build ing the city plant- Some of his sug gestions ar novel and his whole ar- gument is convincing. It will appeal , to many people as a curious situation that the water commission should keep funds rusting in the treasury more than sufficient, according to Its own estimate, to complete at least the street light circuit It must be infer red, however, though the last report of the commission Is silent in that connection, that a portion of the funds on hand are required to meet the next lnt;rest charge, and perhaps another portion really represents the sinking fund accumulation for the series of bonds next maturing, these are mat ters upon which the commission might well be more clear In its statements. But the main point in the communica tion is the suggestion that bonds for an electric light plant might be Bold largely to our own home investors. This Is an idea on the right track. There Is enough idle money In the banks of Astoria, as shown by their published statements, to build and equip the city lighting plant without borrowing a dollar from the outside. With the experience of the water sys tem, where could an Astoria Investor go to find a better or safer Invest ment? If we can keep the bonds for the electric light plant at home, pay th.. interest charges Into the pockets of our own people and give the general consumer a better light than he Is now receiving, at greatly reduced charges, j we will be practicing a principle In municipal economy that has made oth er communities rich and powerful. There is, indeed, a strong argument in "Taxpayer's" communication and it Is to be hoped it will be appreciated and acted on by our citizens. The paramount Issue In the oncoming national campaign an issue for or against which every vote cast in Ore gon in June will be counted directly or indirectly, one way or the o.her is not free silver or the trust or the muhitude of other secondary questions with which the aemocrats will bait their irag-net In the hope to capture the weak and ignorant of all classes. The people who make issues have their attention directed to the Philippine Wands. They have sniffed the briny waters of the sea. The great com mercial battle that is to be fought in the Orient is ths Issue; the question of whether we shall take part in that battle and reap the fruits of a vL-iury that should fall to us more largely than to any other of the earth's conttnd- V1LL UR2f iHald win's tparklln;!, efi'ei veseent Celery Soda Is a harmless and positive cure for heida"he, neurulgia, nausea, rervousness, mental fatigue, sour stomach and sea sickness.

StiVo-ssor to Tli. Olsen, Com. St.. j lug nations; the Question of our chance to participate In that battle and Its victory Is the question upon which the people must decide next campaign, Hrynntsm says we must slay out of that commoiviiU contest; that we must le.iw to England, to Germany, to Rus sla, to France, and to other lessor na tlons of the Old Worl.l the division of the fruits of that vlct iry. Repub lkanlsm fays we are entitled to be the tlrn nation at that bountiful table; that Dewey 'a 6uns at Manila; that the blood of many of the Vst young men ef the Nation have procured us a s. at at the very head of that table and that we owe It to ourselves, our chil dicii and their children to get In and occupy It without delay. The republl can party demands that the Philippine rebellion thall be crushed, order re stored and our authority acknowledge 1 in Luion and throughout nil the Phil ippine Islands. The republican party- demands that these rich islands, shall he retail ed and the rich trade of their people and the millions adjacent, liv ing almost within sight of the flag that Dewey unfolded, shall be enjoyed by our people. The republican party- -. ft wiu My t th(is( lslani,B Not alone for their great wealth, but for the far greater wealth that their position will enable us to command. Eryanlsm says give up those IMands, haul down our flag, retire our soldiers, leave any nation that chooses to go In and reap the great commercial ad vantage of Dewey's victory in putting an end to Spain's mediaeval reign. The republican party says hold on to the Islands, enter Into this widest door opened by their possession In the world's trade; that commerce Is the greatest agent of peace, the greatest enemy of war. the greatest force for the advancement of civilisation. Bry anism says these are base and sordid arguments, and that no party holding them is fit to guide the destinies of the Nation. Republicanism stands for seii ure of the greatest commercial oppor tunities ever presented to any nation; Bryanism says give up those oppor- tunities. This is the issue the exten sion of our commerce Is the paramount issue of the campaign. And upon this must Oregon be held to have voted when the returns of her election are published to the world nest June. SOME STRANGE UTTERANCES. Ex-Oovernor Candler, of Georgia, is evidently not In a conciliatory frame of mind. He appears to be what Is known as an "unreconstructed reb," one of those who thinks the civil war is still "on." He addressed the con federate veterans at Atlanta a few days ago, at the confederate memorial cele bration, and some of his utterances were gems gems of the burning blood kind. That they had a political cast is due to the orator's fervency. He did not wish to attack the Union sol diers, as he explained, but to denounce "the fanatics who presided at the birth of the republican party and nursed the bantling Into vigorous manhood and taught It the doctrine of a higher law, and to disregard the limitations oi the constitution, reverse the pre cedents of a hundred years, and who, disregarding the Golden Rule, preach ed from the pulpit the doctrine of hate instead of peace on earth and good will to men." ' That Is mixing history pret ty thoroughly, but let it pass. This devotion of the fire-eating ex governor to the constitution Is touch ing. We heard a deal about this vio lation of the constitution In preventing men from disrupting the government and stealing the property that belong ed to the whole nation at the time of the war. "This breed of fanatics," the ex-gov-trnor proceeded to inform his hearers, 'had not died out, but were still In congress and in the pulpit, preaching inc. fsamo unholy gosp.-l. Worse still, they "still dominate the party of Lin coln and Seward and Chase, which de nied to you in iW) the blood-bought right of local self-government, and which is today waging a war of con quest against an unoffending people ten thousand miles away." There was an irnpreKjion that some pretty good democrats, who wera, nev er the less, good Americans, had a hand in the effort to maks the authority nl the United States government su preme in the Philippines, and to re store order there in ord.-r that the majority of people should enjoy the blessings of true liberty and civiliza tion, which they never knew, Gen. "Joe" Wheeler, an ex-confederate, for one. But Wheeler, who did his part for what he doubtless considered right at the time, came to his senses long ago, something whijh the eruptive Candler seems not yet to have at tained. Of course the introduction of politics at such a time was in very bad taste to say the least, but one of our American poets has said that pol Iths "knows no propriety of time or pluce." He must have heard some body like the unreconstructed ex-gov- ei nor of Georgia. Such men as he never help the world along. A hermit life would seem most suitable for them. r .4 Hi Karl's Clover Root Tea B!itlfi tha ComrVilon. Puriiwa th lilixxl.icivrs Krrth.Orariutiil.
