As The Astorlan anticipated, the
business men of the city have shown
their wisdom by refusing to raise a
bonus for the proposed transfer to As
toria of a woolen mill now in Iowa. It
ouffht not to be necessary for out
siders to come here with their propo
rtions before Astoria can secure new
enterprises. Astoria has many men
of sufficient ability to plan and
execute successfully new enter
prises which would benefit the city
and they should receive more encour
agement to take the Initiative and be
made to feel that they will be sup
ported by the monled interests of the
city. It has been often said by men
who have (riven to Astoria the best
yers of their life that outsiders with
absurd propositions come here and re
ceive a respectful hearing and consid
erable encouragement while any enter
prise which an Astorlan may start is
received with marked coldness. The
present case Indicates the contrary but
If it be true it ought not to be so.
SOME CHANGE NECESSARY.
"Crime is a monster of so frightful
mien.
As. to be hated, need but to be seen:
Tet, seen too oft, familiar with her face.
We first endure, then pity, then em
brace." The trouble with Astoria Is that vice
has become so familiar in our midst
that we have nearly if not quite reach
ed the last point referred to by the
poet. The remedy lies in retracing our
steps and making vice less familiar. The
Astorlan believes that not only the best
but the only practicable method is by
restricting the number of places where
vice is permitted. This can be done
by doubling or trebling the charge for
the licenses required. It is an unfortu
nate state of affairs that permits the
vouna of the city to meet in every block
in the heart of town dens of vice or
rambling devices. The highway to ruin
Is easily enough traveled without our
pushing the boys from safer paths di
rectly upon that road.
It is pretty generally recognized
throughout the civilized world that the
evil as well as the good points of our
civilisation must and will exist. It is
our duty to minimize the former as far
as possible. So long as they are allowed
to flourish boldly in the most public
thoroughfares that duty is being ne
glected. SCOTT'S EMULSION
of cod-liver oil is the means of
life and enjoyment of life to
thousands: men women and
children.
When appetite fails, it re
stores it. When food is a
burden, it lifts the burden.
When you lose flesh, it
brings' the plumpness of health.
When work is hard and
duty is heavy, it makes life
bright.
It is the thin edge of the
wedge; the thick end is food.
But what is the use of food,
when you hate it, and can't di
gest it?
Scott's emulsion of cod
liver oil is the food that makes
you forget your stomach.

TAPT COMMLSSION'S WORK.
Milwaukee Sentinel.
The period during which Filipino
could come under the ahelter of the
amnesty proclaimed by General Mac
Arthur, with the sile condition that they
would be good hereafter, expired May
1. and the hurry with which insurgent
leaders and their men availed them
selves or the terms of the proclamation
was In harmony with the traditions of
moving day. The only people In the
Philippine Islands now in arms aKalnst
the amhiritv of the United States are
a ten- ban-is under me icaaersnip "i
desperate outlaws whose crimes against
the conventions of war as well as hu
manity have put them beyonj the pale
of amnesty.
When General MaoArthur made his
re nor t of the ronlltlon existing in the
ip'amJs. on October 1 lust, there were,
many who. accepting the somewhat
gloomy viw of the situation out'lned
br the general !n command, could see
no prospect of pet oration of peace in
the archipelago n th near future. This,
outlook, unwelcome as It was to all
who had hoped for better news from
the far East, was an Inspiration to 'he
little coterie of ultra-pure fiwdom-lov-ers
whose headquarters are In Boston.
Mass.. end particularly so to the IVmo
cratic statesmen whose sole ambition
It life is to find grounds upon which to
stand while criticising the administra
tion" of President McKinley.
But the war Is ended. The methods
followed by the Taft commss-on In
dealing with the natives were designed
to win their confidence and secure their
co-operation in the work of reconstruc
tion undertaken by the commission un
der instructions from the administra
tion. In its legislative capa.-ity the
commission determine! to pa? no bill,
except in eases of emergency, without
first publishing the ponding measures
and allowing natives' to appear before
the commission and offer sugg-stlms or
amendments. This plan, differing so
radically from the oi l Spanish way of
dealing with the natives, at first sur
prise.! and then pleased them. Later
came an announcement of the recom
mendation for dealing with the problem
of the friars and their possessions In
the islands, which was also satisfact
ory to the Filipinos. The organization
of the Federal party, made up as it was
of men who had been converted to the
belief that the commission was labor
ing to pave the way for a practical
autonomy under the protection and
guidance of the American republic.
brought to the aid of Judge Tift and j
his associates a powerful ally.
The result has been that the resid-nts
of the town and country district. who j
were aiding the insurg-nts while c-.- j
tensibly acting with the local govern- j
ments previously established by the mil- j
itarv eovernor of the islands, have
abandoned the "secretly organized com
plete insurgent municipal governments"
about which General MacAr.hur made
complaint, and have accepted the ten
der of aid by the commissioners jn
forming local governments loyal to the
United States. The insurgent :n ps,
deprive! of the support heretofore giv
en them by non-combatants, have sur
rendered their hopes of achieving In
dpnendenee under Aguinaldo, and have
united with their chief, "around the
glorious banner of the United States.
In this banner 'they. Impose their trust
and belief that under its protection the
F:"Pno PeP,e wi" a!tai" a" ,he!"
promised liberties which thy are be
ginning to enjoy."
Having brought about the results
outlined within the space of a few
months and against obstacles that ap
peared to General MacArthur to be in
surmountable. It is not unreasonable to
expect the Taft commission, supported
as It now will be bv the na'lves of the
islands, will succeed In so organ iz'ng
the machinery of civil government
within a reasonable time that the oniv
mlllrarv force required to maintain
peace and furnish a sufficient guaranty
for the safety of life and properiy will
be garrisoned in the important towns,
whose duties will consist in aiding the
native constabulary.
