All communications Intended for psb

Business communications of all kinds

The Astorlan guarantees to its ad

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-

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.
