The figure Just riven out by the cn

the smaller cities of Oregon ought to
be a les.vm to Poctiiad. Astoria alone,
f all the citie of tie western part cf
the state, bas been enabled to maintain
a steady growth in the face of Port
land's policy that what it can't get no
one else shall have. That Astoria has
made this advance ahead cf all other
eitles In this part of the state. aside
from Portland. Is due. of course, to its
superior location and the indefatigable
character of Its leading citizens. The
entire Northwest has faith In Asioria
and it la beginning to be generally rec
ognised that here is to be the port of
the Columbia valley region. The
growth of the, mining towns of Eastern
Oregon, outside as they are of Port
land' sphere of influence, has been ex
cellent and is in marked contrast to
the stagnation of the upper valley com

PITY AND BEAUTY
The most beautiful thing,
in the world, is the baby,
all dimples and joy. The
most pitiful thing is that same
baby, thin and in pain.
The dimples and joy have
gone, and left hollows and fear.
It is fat that is gone ; gont
with it, comfort and color and
curve ; all but pity and love.
The little one gets no fat
from her food : has had none
for weeks: she is living on
what she had stored in that
plump little body of hers.
She is starving for fat ; it is
death; be quick!
Scott's emulsion of cod-liver

The attention of the business com
munity of Astoria is called to th above
gd advice from the Seattle Times
to the but-iness men of that city. Our
own chamber of commerce larks the
support it should have. It has been a
pioneer In every movement for th bene
fit not slone of Astoria but of the
whole Columbia valley. To U more
than to any other body has been due
the inprovemcnts of the Columbia riv
er made by the government. To It is
largely due the fact that Astoria to
day stands undisputably the second city
of the state In sixe and Influence. What
might be accomplished if more of our
leading citizens took an interest in its
labors for the common weal can only
be imagined. There is roach for it yet
to accomplish. Helpful legislation, both
national and state, must he urged and
our representatives must be made to
feel that a united community is back
of whatever pressure Is brought to
bear upon them. Astoria needs new
connection with the Interior, parks,
factories and, most important of all,
speedy development of our natural re-sourt-es,
particularly of our coal mines.
AJ1 of these things can be had and the
chamber of commerce, supported by the
business community as it ought to be,
w 111 be able to add much to its excellent
record of the past in bringing these
things to passt
OPENING A NEW WORLD.
New Totk Tribune.
A current item of news Is suggestive
of the importance of the new world
w hich Is being opened by the construc
tion of the Russian railroad across Si
beria and China. It is that an English
company has been formed with 3,000,00
capital to develop certain gold fields
in the Amoor territory where it has a
concession of 370,000 acres. That an
Er.giifb company, of the very nation
supposed to be most antagonistic to
Russia, should secure such a conces
sion Is In Itself a striking circumstance.
It sems to indicate that Sibsrla is be
ing opened up to ail the world. That so
large a gold mining enterprise is afoot
serves also to recall the fact that Si
beria is conspicuous among the gold
producing lands of the world and prom
ices some day to outrank them all. As
yet the mineral resources have only be
gun to be developed. Yet at the present
time Siberia exports mote than 125.000,
Q0 of gold yearly and ranks as the
fourth gold producing country. As for
its wealth In silver, platinum, Iron, lead,
coal, naphtha, precious stones, etc., It Is
simply Incalculable.
Greater still are the agricultural pos
sibilities of the land. We must disa
buse ourselves of the Idea that Siberia
is an arctic wilderness. It lies that
vast belt of It which Is now being open
ed to settlement between the fiftieth
and sixtieth parallels; in the latitude,
that is to say, of the1 British Isles and of
British Columbia, Manitoba and the
bulk of the western part of the Do
minion. The trans-Piberian railroad lies
scarcely further north than the Canadi
an Pacific Railway. The country re
sembles In gr?at part the plains of the
Dakntas, Manitoba and the Saskatche
wan and Peace river valleys. There is
such a strip 050 miles wide between 2000
and 3000 miles long, of virgin soil and of
genial cllniat?. The possibilities of
such a region are simply Inexpressible.
It Is literally a new world, which may
before the coming century ends sustain
a prosperous population numbered by
scores of millions. We know what our
own transcontinental railroads have
done for the great plains and for the
region once branded as thg great Amer
ican deaert, and supposed to be as In
hospitable to settlement as the worst
of Siberia. Well. Siberia It now being
provided with su;h a rod. which will

Druggist
The difficulties in princes "business
are many and great: but the greatest
difficulty is often In their own mind.
The person who disturbed the con
gregation last Sunday by coughing is
requested to call on Charts Rogers
and get a bottle of Foley's Hony and
Tar. It always gives relief.
Prir.ces are like to heavenly bodies,
which cau.'e good or evil times, and
which have much veneration, and no
rest
Cold and cough cures are numerous,
but the one that leads all others In
merit, Is Foley's Honey and Tar, which
Is in great demand these days. CHAS
ROGERS, Dragglst.
Th? wieit princes need not think It
any diminution to their greatness or
derogation to their .lumciency to rely
upon counsel.
FOR PNEUMONIA.
Dr. C. J. Bishop. Agnew, Mich., says:
"I have used Foley's Honey and Tar in
three very severe cases of pneumonia
with good results In every case." There
Is nothing so good. CHAS. ROGERS

BenJ. Ingrson, of Hutton, Ind., says
he had not spoken a word above a
whisper for months, and one bottle of
Foley's Honey and Tar restored his
voice. It Is used largely by speakers
and singers. Take no substitute.
CHAS ROGERS. Druggist.
Thlnzs will have their first or second
agitation; If they be not tossed upon
the arguments r.f coungf?l, they will be
tossed upon the waves of fortune and
be full of Inconstancy, doing and undo
ing, like the reeling of a drunken man.
THE EEST SALVE IN THE WORLD

CHAS. ROGERS, Druggist,
It is true there be some affairs which
require extreme secrecy.
Many have lost confidence and hope
as wen as health, because they thought
their kidney disease was Incurable.
Foley's Kidney Cure is a positive cure
for the discouraged and disconsolate.
