More toan two months have, elapsed
and Astoria seeois to have got along
pretty well without the luxury of elec
tric street lights. There would seem to be
little difficulty in bearing with the sana
tion for a while longer. Like asphalt
pavements, electric lights are a modern
metropolitan convenience; very nie to
Lave, but like 60 many other good things
forbidden to people of small pocket
books. Twenty years ago a majority of
the people of Astoria had perhaps never
even seen an electric liibt. Astoria was
a good town then ; some say a better one
than she is now. The members of the
citv council who saved the eitv the larve
sura of money which would have gone to j
pav for electric lights in the past two
months, besides the liability for the
thousands of dollars which the light
company undertook to extort by its pro
posed long term contract, have earned
the everlasting gratitude of the taxpay
ers, withont the slightest apparent de
privation to the general public.' Asto
ria's fight over the attempted light ex
tortion will live a long while in the
memory of her inhabitants, besides being
an inspiration and encouragement to
hundreds of other intelligent commcni
nitiea in their efforts to emancipate
themselves from the grasping tentacles
f public utility monopolies, fastened
npon them by improvident or co'rnptj
municipal enactment. By all means let
the good fight in Astoria go on. Let
there be no let up or lag, nor si;n of
weakening. In the language of a distin
guished member of the Electric L:ght
and Water Commission, the present is
not an "opportune" time for Astoria to
indulge in electric lights. Not having
the means to buy electric lights, if some
cheaper method of lighting the streets
cannot be found, let us manage to get
along without any, as the experience of
the last two months has demonstrated
that we can, until such a time as in the
opinion of the au just electric light and
water commission the time is opportune
lor the resumption of that convenience.

THE SOUTirs CIT.SR.
The spirit of intolerance which: rules
the South is well illustrnte.1 in the atti
tude the Louisville Courier-Journal has
been forced to assume toward the Bryan
platform and ticket. Never wa9 there a
worse case of stultification and cowardly
submission to an ignorant and blindly
prejudiced public senliuient thnn the
change of that really great newspaper
.
trom n cuatupiousuip ot sonna money
and expansion to free silver and the'
demagogic cry of imperialism raised by
Bryan. It is a sad and pitiable spec
tacle. Both the editor and proprietor o'
the Courier-Journal have publicly re-can
ted their former political opinious
and contrary to their couviction of
what is for the best interest of
the section they represent are now
advocating the election of the Hrya
ticket It is little wonder that the Soutk
fails in progress and development. It Is
little wonder capital refuses to go there
for investment and that its best blood is
forced to seek more congenial aud in
telligent sections of tbe country for
start in life. Yet the South erercis
twice the political power as the same
number of voters in the North. It is
shame and a reproach and a menace at
the same time to popular government
that this should be so. The republican
party has to obtain the votes to elect its
national candidates at the North by in
telligent discussion aud through the
sheer merit of its' position on public
questions. It goes Into the electoral col
lege handicapped by the entire electoral
vote or the South, cast for any
candidate and any set of political
principles the democratic party sees
fit to set np and proclaim. Leading
newspapers all over the country are
apologixing for Mr. Watterson and hi
paper, bnt for men of the intelligence
and attainments of Mr. Watterson and
the proprietor of the Courier Joarnal
there can be no reasonable excuse. They
deserve the severest condemnation of in
telligent and honest men everywhere.
No other commentary is needed on the
diflerence between the North and the
South than lo8ay soy public man or
reputable newspaper in the former wonld
be utterly and irretrievably ruined by
sncb a shameless and confessedly sordid
course as that pursued by Mr. Watterson
and Mr. Haldemau. One of the bet
discussions of their case is by the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. It makes the
usual apology for them, but tells the
facts in their case without palliation or
drossingover. It reads as follows:
The attitude which Mr. W. D. Halde
man. proprietor of the Louisville Courier-Journal,
has been compelled to take,
both personally and in bis paper, is
almost pitiable; yet every newspaper
man can understand why be has been
forced Into the position which he now
assumes. Both Mr. Haidernan, the
owner, and Henry Watterson, the editor
of the Courier-Journal, were opposed,
and are still opposed to every plank
in the Chicago platform, re-enunciated
at Kansas City. They are believers In
the single gold standard; have no sym
pathy with free riot strongly antag
onize the proposition to reorganize
the supreme court for the pur
pose of securing a majority to overturn
existing decisions; and In general are
opposed to all the Populistic program
of the so-called new Democracy. More
over, on the one issue which the Demo
crats are trying to force to the front
in the East, that of anti-expansion,
they are heartily in sympathy with th
policy of the administration. Take it
all in all, there is not one single issue
before the country in the present cam
paign in which these two prominent
Democrats are not far more in sym
pathy and accord with the Republican
administration than they are with Mr.
Bryan, to whom they have now felt
compelled to render a perfunctory sup
port. The explanation is simple, the rea
sons are not far to seek. The Louis
ville Courier-Journal has been for a
generation one of the great Democratic
newspapers of the South, . with a
clientage extending over many states.
As a property it has had extraordinary
value. Four years ago, the proprietor
and editor of the Courier-Journal,
strong in their convictions of right and
of the duty which they owed to the
country, refused to support the Demo
cratic program for a debasement of
the national currency. They doubtlens
believed that the strength and prestige
of the Courier-Journal were too great
for any serious Injury to result from
its refusal to support the party nomi
nees; particularly as the parer had
previously taken a decidedly indepen
dent attitude on many national ques
tion, without loss of prestige.
They did not allow for the bigotry
and intolerance which are marked
characteristics of the Bryanltes; but
they soon learned. The tremendous
falling off In business and the growth
of rival newspapers with more elastic
consciences, showed that a great prop
erty would be wrecked If a change
was not made. When the next election
came around, the Courier-Journal was
a healthy supporter of Ooebel and even
endorsed the Goebel law, which It had
previously allied in the bitterest
terms. When It saw that Bryan was
certain to be nominated, It gave In Its
adherence to him. It fought strenu
ously the threatened abandonment of
the historic Democratic nttltud on the
question of expansion, but when the
Kansaa City platform wsa adopted, It
accepted the bitter pill, and clung to
Democracy and to the business office
receipts.
SW "'"
' nounres that he rronoses to vote for
nryan. The. waaon wnloh ne C(m
give for his changed attitude Is that
he sympathises with the Boers. This
I the nole point of harmony between
him and Mr. Bryan, and this Is the
only reason which he can publicly
avow.
The attitude of the Courier-Journal
and of Its managers ought not to be
criticised too harshly. The sacrifice
which they made four years ago for
principle must have amounted. In act
ual dollars and cents, to an enormous
sum. That vhey do not propose to be
completely ruined, financially, for the
privilege of giving expression to views
which the people who take their paper
do not care to read, says only that
they ar? not ready for the martyr's
death. It Is well, however, that the
public, wont to be Influenced somewhat
by the utterances of what was once
a great Independent paper, should un
derstand precisely the motives for its
present change of policy.
