Under all the circumstances the re-
publicans have nothing whatever to
be ashamed of In yesterday's re
suit. All the principal offices In the
county will be filled by republicans,
while John Hahn's majority is far be-
low anticipations, considering the fact
that he ran as a republican and un
questionably divided the republican
vote. The election of Linville and
Thompson is particularly gratifying,
Linville wus antagonized by a comblna
tlon especially organised and managed
to defeat him. while Henry Thompson
was opposed by one of the strongest
and most popular candidates who ever
ran on a party ticket in Clatsop
county. Moody's magnificent majority
with every precinct In the county to
his credit, shows the strength of na
tional republicanism in Clatsop county,
and Harrison Allen's vote is a testi
monial to that gentleman's standing
at home that will "do him honor
throughout the state. Lyman's elec
tion is no credit to the citizen's move
nvnt His qualifications for the office,
with his physical Infirmatlis, counted
too largely in his favor to be overcome
by the record Mr. Lee has made, as
good as that record undoubtedly is.
Taken altogether, the honors in yes
terday's contest are much more than
even in republican favor, and will be
so conceded by every fair-minded par
tlsan of the fusion ticket
There should be no hesitation or un
certainty on the part of the water com
mission in disposing of the electric light
question at tonight's meeting. If it
proposes to defy the will of the people
and. through considerations of senti
ment rather than duty, remand the
matter of lighting the streets baek to
the council, let it be done promptly
and decisively. Of course, without the
backing of the water commission, the
council will have no alternative but to
make the best terms possible with the
light monopoly or let the streets go
unllghted. In this dilemma there Is
but one consistent course open to the
council. It must stand by its position;
let the streets remain in darkness and
leave the responsibility of that sltua
tlon at the doors of the water commls
slcn. There can be no question that
this Is the sentiment of .line-tenths of
the taxpayers and householders of As
toria. Eetter. far better, the Inconven
ience of dark streets, or the substitu
tion of some other and temporary sys
tem of lighting than to surrender the
people to the mercy of the West Shore
Mills Company.
According to the representation of
the West Shore Mills Company, and
as a reason why it demands a five-year
contract at an advanced rate over that
heretofore paid for street lights, the
progress In electric light appliances
has rendered Its plant in many re
spects obsolete, and it is necessary to
Invest a large sum in repairs and im
provements. This argument, rightly
considered, shows the Importance of a
change from private to public owner
ship at this time rather than, on some
future occasion. If the people are to
be put under tribute for the erec
tion of a modern light plant, it is
folly to give that plant to a private
company. Let the water commission
build the new plant for the people, and
then every cent the people have to
pay over and above the expense of
operation will be Invested In their own
property and tend to reduce the fu
ture burden of private and public light
ing. If the money proposed to be col
lected from the people, after It has
been applied to the Interest charges
on the debt incurred by the light com
pany in purchasing the gas plant, pay
ing its running expenses and providing
a living Income for its officers and
share holders, goes to reimburse them
for the increased investment necessary
to the improvement of the present
plant; the West Shore Mills Company
will be the beneficiary of the increas
ed rate and the people will be worse
off than under existing circumstances,
In ether words, If the people are to
bo taxed to build another light plant
or even to renovate the old one, let
the money be Invested In a public
plant, which will be the property of the
people when paid for.
The only argum;nt heard against
the ownership of a public electric light
plant is that the West Shore Mills
Company would loso Its Investment In
the prvsent plant if the city went Into
competition with It in the electric light
lng. It Is urged, that is to say, that the
people are under some sort of obllgn
lion to support the West Shore Mills
Company and have no right to omnncl
pate themselves from that obligation
by building and operating their own
riant. But let us see what conclu
ston such an argument Irrestibly leads
to. If the people, after having cen
trlhuted in the rates paid for years
past the Interest as well as principal
Invested by the West Shore Mills Com
pany in the old, worn-out plant, are
to be placed under fresh obligations
to rebuild that plant for that company,
when. In all good conscience, is that
condition of slavery or subserviency to
end? Will the West Shore Mills Com
pany be any the more Inclined to can
eel its claims upon the city whon it
has completed the new plant with the
people's money than it is today with
the old plant, for which the people
have paid? Then, agaln.lt will be re
called that the president of the com
pany openly asserted at the last me?t-
insr of the water commission that his
company had bought out the gas com
pany in order to stop competition in
the light business. In other words,
after having put out one competitor
It Is looked upon as a hardship that
it should not be allowed to enjoy Its
hoped-for monopoly in the light busi
ness. Another feature of this pecu
liar plea of the light company, and
an additional reason why the peo
ple should be freed from Its domin
ion, is the fact that the consumers of
electric light are being taxed to pay
interest and capital borrowed to buy
out the gas company. Not content
with substituting a monopoly for what
was once open competition In the fur
nishing of light to the people, the West
Shore Mills Company Is proposing to
compel the people In the rates It now
wants to charge in an unobstructed
field to pay enough for both Its gas
works and build it a new electric light
plant besides.
If the West Shore Mills Company has
a right to levy taxes on the people,
to repay its Investments and obliga
tions incurred on account of its at
tempted monopoly of the lighting buai-
ne?s, let the water commission ap
praise and pay for Its antiquated
electric plant and throw such portions
of it as are not adapted to modern
use into the river. This would be a
much better investment, in connection
with that required for a first-class
public plant, than to continue the
present or a worse rtate of future bond
age to the West Shore Mills Company
without any prospect of Its end.
EXPORTS STILL GROWING.
For the month of April, 1900, Amerl
can exports of manufactured articles
were worth forty million dollars, while
the total value of our manufactured
exports for the fiscal year ending June
30 next promises to considerably ex
ceed four hundred million dollars. Our
exports of manufactured products for
last April were greater than those for
any previous month in our history,
while the total for the present fiscal
year bids fair to bi three times as
large as it was ten years ago, certain-
a remarkable growth In our export
trade for such a comparatively short
period. In the same decade Great Bri
tain's exports of manufactured articles
have not appreciably increased, while
no European nation appears to have
Increased Its exports by more than 25
per cent In the same period. The
United States total exports in the
same time hav2 Increased 150 per cent.
The growth of our manufactured ex
ports seems to be especially In the line
of metal manufactures, as the statis
tics prepared by the Invaluable bureau
of treasury statistics show. In 15S9
oi'.r manufactured exports formed less
than 20 per cent of our total exports,
while for 1900 the percentage will be
The Increase in metal and manu
factured exports for the decade 1889-
1W8 was 339 per cent; the Increase for
manufactures of all kinds was only 110
In the same time, and that for manu
factures other than metals 55 per cent.
Our exportatlons of railway rails give
a very good idea of our Industrial
growth In the last few years. In 1?89
we exported only seven tons of Iron

rails for railways and In 1S9S the total
reached 2,"69 tons, thj value Increasing
from $210 In I$$9 to 837,150 In ISSS. In
1SS9 we exported 7,338 tons of stee
rails worth :33,3S7 and In 1S3S 229.
7S3 tons, worth ,613.S7. Judging by
the present rate of exportation
should export enough tons of steel rails
during the present fiscal year to In
crease the value of such exports for
the present year to eight million dol
lars. Russia, Canada and Japan are
the largest purchasers of our steel rails.
They began to buy them In 1S9S. for the
value of such exports In 1S96 was only
a little over half a million. It had In
creased to $2,IS2,20 In 1S97. to 84,613.-
370 la 19$. and Ju.29S.lC3 In IS99.
GOEBELITES STILL PLOTTING..
Brooklyn Standard-Union.
Although Gov. Taylor, of Kentucky,
has accepted the decision of an In
famous law, which, although It strikes
at the rule of the majority, is still the
law, In the case of the office to which
he was elected by a majority of ballots
which left no doubt of the popular will
the Goebelites continue their persecu
tion of him and those of his support
ers who have taken refuge In Indiana,
and an attempt at kidnapping them
has been discovered and defeated.
The scheme Is to get them on Kentucky
soil, by hook or by crook, and into the
hands of the partisan courts, for what
purpose and with what probable
result there can be no doubt. Judging
by what has already been done in that
direction.
"The mills of the gods grind slowly,
but they grind exceeding small," and
there is retribution in store for those
who have eo flaggrantly cheated the
will of the people, and made the elec
tive franchise a mockery and Justice
a byword and a hissing. Gov. Taylor
has been solicited by friends in Ken
tucky to run again for the office, and
there Is no doubt that should he run
there would be no uncertain result.
The vote for him would be so great that
no partisan court would dare to at
tempt to set it aside, for fear of an up
rising of the people, who have stood
all they intend to stand In that direc
tion. Many who have always trained
with the democratic party heretofore
are with Taylor in this matter, and
against Goebellsm.
