Since we have been fooling with the Oriental and Philippine questions we have lost two valuable warships, vessels that are worth more In dollars and cenU than the whole Philippine group, and the In dications are that the loss in at least one case was the result of negligence or drunkenness. Vessels of all na tions are plying those waters, and It certainly appears strange that American ships should be the only ones to meet with disasters. When the Charleston was WTecked It is known through the testimony of members of the crew, though the mat ter was quickly hushed up, that nearly all the officers were Intoxicated and un fit for duty, and we may expect some Interesting reports regarding the Ore gon as soon as the crew Is discharged and the men at liberty to speak. Building expensive Vessels simply to decorate the rocks In Aslatls waters Is becoming very tiresome to the Amer-1 lean people, and they will soon demand an accounting from the navy depart mentAstoria Budget. July 2. The attention of The Astorlan has Just been called to the above slander ous attack on the American navy, marked copies of the paper containing which are said to have been gratu Itously sent aboard the Philadelphia during her sojourn here and distributed promiscuously among the officers and sailors. It Is to be regretted that the committee of arrangements, at whose instance the navy department was kind enough to honor Astoria with the visit of this noble ship and her veteran crew of officers and men, failed to de tect and repudiate an act so vile and discourteous as this. The appearance of such an article in any American newspaper would be bad enough at any time, but the timing of Its publication with the arrival of the Philadelphia to take part In a general patriotic observ ance of the Fourth of July amounts to an offense whose infamy and lnhos pitality will react upon Astoria and do lasting harm and discredit perhaps to the whole state. The Insult was deeply resented by Captain Mead and other officers of the Philadelphia, and it is to be feared the report which they may give to the navy department of their visit here will put a stop to fur ther friendly visits of American war vessels to this port. Of course the article is inspired by Lazy Livers sre many times the cause of rut-Ions d wam Ninety per cent of the American people are and to be troubled with liver and stomach complaints sm'h as constipation, dizzimm, indigestion, liiUoiuueaa, sluggish liver, etc. Baldwin's Health Tablets No. 25 overcome and rare those uls.

They east 2ic and can be procured at FRAN'S HART. cessor to Th. Olsen, 100-J Com. St. i r.nxlety to make poll' leal capital for the anil-expansionist campaign, end In cidentally to exploit the paper In unes tlun ns a brilliant and tearless cham pion of the party It disgraces hy Us suppovt. From beginning to end it Is1 a cr-td of outrageous falsehood. Our navy has Abundantly proved I" superiority In discipline. ns well js In neatly all other respects, over the navies of the European powers. It passes all comprehen sion how any American daivs to brook pu!llc sentiment at home by assigning otherwise, and It is Just such utt.M- ences as these In the petty pre to which this Astoria sheet aspires to belong that confounds the opinion of American politics held by Intelligent people abroad. It Is not true that we have lost two valuable ships In the Far East, but the traitor us writer of this article evidently reflects by that state ment the hope that such a national calamity may yet come true. The charge that our vessels are the only ones meeting with disaster In the China seas shows & paucity of Informa tion or malignity f slanderous pur pose that should render any paper In which It Is publish M odious and con temptible In the sight of every Amer lean patriot who chances to read its guff. The loss of life as well as ship ping in the waters of the Orient Is fearful, and has been shared by the commerce and navies of all the world. The Japanese, especially, who possess the greatest tonnage in Northern Asl atic seas, have suffered enormously of late years. Only a short time ago a great French liner, whose captain had navigated these waters for nearly a lifetime, was lost on the Chinese shore. It is not to be wondered that we. who are having practically our first experi ence In that section of the world, should have suffered with the rest to some extent. The charge that the officers of the Charleston were drunk when she was lest on an unchartjd reef in the Phil ippines emanated from certain Agul- naldo sympathlxers at home, and was so monstrous and ungrateful a false hood as to arouse unanimous expres sions of Indignation from naval officers of every nation throughout the world. The matter was made the subject of rigid official inquiry by the depart ment and it was rhown conclusively that the Charleston was navigating w aters at the time of her mishap where the chart gave a great depth and that her officers were even unusually alert because of unfamlliarity with the lo cality. There is no branch of the pub lic service, in which merit so complete ly controls position and responsibility as in our navy. It is one institution, at least, in which all kinds of Amer icans should take pride and which should be freest from the slanders of the penny-a-liners in the low politi cal sheets that thrive ty lying attacks upon American statesmen and misrep resentations of the policies of the party In power. The effectiveness of our na vy, man for man and ship for ship. Is universally acknowledged to hold the highest rank among the navies of the world. The prestige of its achieve ments irom Its beginning until the present time has called forth the warmest commendation and praise from experts and text-book writers In every tongue. The only charitable interpretation of this Aftoria libeler's conduct is that to his small mind the visit of the Philadelphia furnished an auspicious occasion for palming off the effusion of some Ignorant and malicious Interior party writer as the product of hlg own brain. He copied the article, evident ly, on the assumption that the ap pearance of the cruiser In Astoria wa ters would lend plausible color to its originality as a party argument for the political crowd to which he thinks he belongs. If this Is not his excuse for the iiisult offered Astoria's distinguish ed guests and his ba,se black guardism of the worthiest branch of his country's public service, he ought to be hunted out by a committee of indignant citizens and made to leave the town. The great seaport of Astoria has no room for such a class of vermin as this, and they should be exterminated with the rats or else forced to move along. It h a waste of lime and words to i-omradiit .on either the platform or nominee of the Kansas City conven tion. Both were condemned by an overwhelming sentiment of the Amer ican people, Including the best element and most influential newspapers of the democratic party, long In advance of the date of their promulgation at Kan sag City. The fact that such ardent gold-standardites as Hill, Croker, Sewall, of Maine, and even so decent a man as Pattlson, of Pennsylvania, were The Best Washing Woman's Best Friend. there and pretended to Join In the unanimous approval and "enthusiasm" of the fresh demand for free and un limited coinage of silver and the aban donment of the Philippines and other fruits of the Spanish war. which dem ocrats as much as any other class sup ported at the outset, will make no change in the opinions and determin ation of the people. Mr. Bryan and his Kansas City patchwork of retro gression and fault-finding will be overwhelmingly condemned mark the prediction by the largest and most pronounced proportionate majority ever cast by the people against the demo cratic party since the defeat of the Mct'lellan ticket and his "fallure-of-the-aar" platform in 1SS4. The repub lican party. In the providence of the Almighty, will go straight ahead with Its rlvilixtng work and its needed preparations for the fulfillment of Its great and patriotic mission Jim the same as If Mr. Bryan had never been born or Mr.Croker now occupied his ap propilate penitential cell at Sing Sing, or the last quadrennial Confederate reunion had not taken place this year In Kansas City or elsewhere. There is Just one exception to the rule from Richmond, Virginia, to New Orleans, Louisiana, and from San Francisco to Manila, that where the republican party has once planted the American banner of freedom It has never been furled. The solitary excep tion was in the Hawaiian Islands, but the promptness and undoubted terma nency with which the banner was afterwards replaced In that instance is an emphasis of the unfailing rule and determination of the American people for Its enforcement elsewhere and at all times. ADLAI E. STEVENSON. The newly-chosen Democratic nomi nee for the vice-presidency was born In Christian county, Kentucky, October 23, 1S35. and educated at Wesleyan University and Centre College, Ken tucky. In 1832 he moved to Blooming ton, 111., and began the practice of law at Metamora, In the same state, eight years later. He soon became prominent in politics, serving as chancery mas ter of Woodford county from 1861 to IS63, as state's attorney from 1863 to 1869, and was chosen as a presiden tial elector on the Democratic ticket In 1861. He returned to Bloomlnirtnn in 1863 and was thence elected to the Forty-fourth and Forty-sixth congress es. In 1877 he was a member of the board of visitors to West Point. During Cleveland's first term as president he was the first assistant postmaster-general. In 1892 he wa elected vice-president on the ticket with Cleveland, and now finds himself linked with Bryan as a candidate for the same position. Being elected this time, however, Is a different proposition. ASTORIA AND COLUMBIA RIVER RAILROAD. Leave.
