' THB ASTORIAN PUBUSHINa CO, MAN AND HIS CLOTHES. Harvard university, It la said, pro pose to take a step In ad7ane and lead all other American colhvcrs along the path of proper academic drcta. It Is announced that the rorporaUon of the university has taken, action mak ing it "permissive for all holders of de grees to wear special academic cos tumes," and It Is believed that all who have that gracious permission will profit by It. No information has been given as to what moved the .-orporaUon to take such action, but it li jrobable some of the members, if not aU of them, have seen the recently published photo graphs of the coal strike arbitrators as they appeared when clothed In the garb of the miners preparing to des cend a mine. That picture clearly Il lustrates toe value to man of bis pro per adornments. The -.nembera.of the arbitration board are dignitaries of no mean rank, but they looked in their un wonted clothes like a pack of tramps rounded up by a village constable and about to be photographed at a rouges' gallery. ' It is further Interesting to note that Just at this time the trial of a lawsuit In Paris between the members of a firm of corset manufacturers discloses the fart that the Orm makes annually a large number of corsets for the offic ers of the various armies. The Ger mans do not buy male corsets from France because there is a Orm an fac tory for the goods. Thus it appears that much of the trim alertness and the distinguished dignity of carriage that mark the military man are due not so much to his martial vigor as to his corset. ; Thtre have been critics of the action oif the Harvard corporation. They say If will tend to give another impetus to the Idea of scholastic formalism and to create aristocratic distinctions which are out of place In a democratic ci un try. The Call thinks there is some virtue In such criticisms but they are not sufficient to make Harvard pause, nor indeed would the critic himself as sert them very vigorously If he would make a thorough study of the photo graph of the arbitration board in demo cratic clothjs. Let Harvard go ahead in academic dress reform. She is all right, and need not pause to answer if "DOES MOTHER WANT ME?" The- little fellow has blown with all his strength, and the downy tufts still cling to the dande i lion stem. Accord ling to the oracle of childhood mother does not want him. i But mother would tell a different story. She ,A has noticed the weak ness of the lungs, and I if she saw him now. J flushed with his unusual m effort and struggling to stifle the couga whicn followed it, she'd feel how much she wsnted him, and wanted those " weak " lungs made strong, that she might not lose bim. For weak lung, obstinate cough, h e m o r - ruage, weakness and emaciation there is no medicine so healing and so strengthening as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It it especially valuable for children, building np weak bodies with sound, healthy flesh. It is entirely free from alcohol and narcotics.

It the slgts of the times give evidence of any one fact, they make plain the latter-day truth that the science or art of, and ' the necessity for advertising have arrived definitely and must In future be con'Idred among the things which are. The millions of dollars spent annually for publicity, the army of men and women who have been sp-Klally trained for the business of preparing and disseminating advertis ing matter, and the taste or habit which has ben developed in the pub lie as the result of modern needs and methods In this respect, all prove that Judicious advertising must In future be a part and an Important part of any successful business. , The time when a man could hang up sign and sell goods on the strength of his location or personality Is beconv ing a remembrance, and his neighbor who studies the art of exploiting bis wares or bringing his goods properly before the attention of the public, and showing to Intending or possible pur chasers what advantages he has to of fer. Is the man who distances competi tors. The difference between waiting for chance or something else to bring in a customer and attracting the cus tomer by live advertising methods Is largely the difference between success before the attention of the public, and means of advertising, the dally paper stands acknowledged the chief. FULTON IS THE MAN. Portland Chronicle: Hon. C. W. Fulton has won in honest fight. He has honestly and openly aspired to rep resent this state In the United States senate, and has fitted himself to All the position. His claim upon his party Is dented by no one. Able and fear less, he has at all times and In all places fought the battles nf his party. Broad-minded and liberal in his views, he seeks the welfare of the whole state and every part of It. An open river to the sea and reclamation of the arid lands will have his heartiest support. He has come before the representatives of the people not with hands btaring gold and working in secret, but with mind fully equipped to best serve the state and an honest purpose to give of his best to the state he seeks io serve. The fight has been made. For four years Mr. Fulton has stood before the people among other aspirants, an avowed and open aspirant for a seat in the senate and he has come through the ordeal without bitterness and with out reproach, the choice of the people and the choice of a majority of the legislature, for the position to which he aspires. A remarkable record the survival of the fittest liohemla Nugg;t: Mr. Fulton's itc-l ord la a clean one. This, In Itself, dut-si r. .1 entitle him to a reat 1 1 tho United States senate: but it certainly makes him eligible and wh?n coupled with his. magnificent ability surrounded by his friends, who are legion, he becomes a formidable figure, . lot easily outdone by other candidates v;ho itspire to the high honor. . He Is one of those cour ageous republicans who has never been found wanting i-ni always ready to put his best effort foremost in support of his party and its interests giving his own, at least on two occasions In his political career, a 3econ-lary place. No one can gainsay his ability. In fact today, if not ths peer, he stands in the very front rank of brainy, men Identi fied with the political affairs of the state.. Florence Veat: We believe that C. W. Fultoa is the choice of the major ity of the citizens of Oregon for United States senator and we hope to see him elected to that office by the legislature next winter. To which the Eugene Register adds: "This is ihe exact po sition mojt of the republican state pr'-ss takes on this ruesion and the party leaders, like Senator Mitchell, are' said to be In line for the Astoria statesman, who is the logical man for th place," Arlington Record: Some of our con temporaries ara advocating an eastern Oregon man for nenator, but no one has been named. So far as we are hdvls ed eastern Oregon has no candidate for senator. Believing Mr. Fulton would work in harmony with Senator Mitchell and Representative William son for eastern Oregon's interests is the principal reason we favor Mr. Ful ton's election. New berg Graphic: ' Mr, Fulton Is probably the most popular man who could be elected, and at the same time a man whose ability matches his popu larity. Factional politics should not he ullowed to cheat Oregon out of send ing s strong man to represent her with ftnstor Mitchell In the upper house of congress. linker Clt Republican: Mr. Fulton's place Is in the United Slates senate, and bis groat service to his stats Junt ly sntlils him to tits position which hi will some day fill. He does not pur poa to be ildtra'kd by th tularin lillal switch. ADDITIONAL LOCAL.

A tree was. of co-ire, the center of attraction. everyone present receiving a present from Its branches. Children and elders alike were delighted with the entertain ment. Mr. Joseph Orlbler presided over the festivities and deserves a special word of praise for the oble man ner In which he conducted the arrange' menta. . The council last night decided that city property shall not herafter be loaned. For some years cast It has been the practice to lend hose to con eractors for grading purposes and re cently a similar request came from Oscar Johnson. The members of the street committee, to whom the matter wan referred, recommended that the petitioner be given the use of such hose aa the afreet aurjerltendent inlKht be In position to spare, but suggested that the practice ought to be abolished and recommended the passage of an ordin ance to shat effect. The measure will probably be Introduced st the nest ses sion of ths council.

The suit was that of Chas. Wright vs the city of Astoria and wns InstJ tut-Jd to enjoin the city from construc t' Ing the drain. Art Injunction against the Improvement wis issued out of the circuit court, directed to Mayor Su prenant and ths late Aulitor Nelson, but Contractor fioodln was not en- Joined and continued with the work The improvement has been completed, but the Injunction was still In effect and (he contractor could not be paid for his work. Yesterday City Attorney Smith's demurrer to the complaint was sustained and the injunction dissolved Mr. Goodin will now receive his mon ey, and a dispute of long standing will termlnat-;. A distressing ufciilent occurred in Skimokavva Saturday evening last by wntcn resulted the instant death or tn oil time resident of that jlaoe, Frank M. Sweet. In company with his son, a lad 12 years of rtge, Mr. Sweet was engaged In cutting down a tree In the vicinity of his home. T?oth the father and son were elevated from the ground a distance of four or five f-t on spring boards to more conveniently do the work and when the tree was ready to fall both leaped to the ground. The boy landed safely and running to one side escaped unhurt. His f.-.ther, though, was not so fortunate, for he stumbled as he struck the ground and fell helpless. Before ho could rise the timber fell upon hint crushing his life out. As quickly as possible jackscrews were brought to the scene ( nd the body was removed, but life wns extinct. De- cancd is survived by a widow and two young tons. Sunday night's up train was board ed somewhere between this point and Portland by a company of rough look ing customers who proceeded to take possession of ths smoker, They had been drinking, It seems, and drank more en route from flasks which Ihey carried In endless supply bbout their persons, and this evidently caused the conuslon that unsued. Several of the men began quarelling and this result ed In a rough and tumble fie lit winch all engaged in and wemd to thorough ly enjoy, so much so, In fact, thst up on lha arrival of ths train In Portland out of the participants of Ui fmi'n was tarried from tits i sr on lr: her and presumably removed to a hospital, though his name and subsequent mr.vv ments have not boon learned. An amusing feature ot the fight was the actions of two Chinamen, who hap pened to he riding In compuny with the caroiwrs. This class of people Is very adverse to mixing up In u awnerul melee anl those tw men wore no ex ception to the rule. They moved ex citedly about tho oar seeking a refuge from the fierce onslaught going oh about thfim, all the w hlle engaging in mild gesticulations and high pitched Chinese talk. At last, when they could t-n-lure It no longer, they made a wild rush for Aha other end of tho train and were not content until they wore safely iwconj m the chair car, where they cheerfully paid the extra necessary far?, and made tho balance of the distance, happy that ihoy wore far from tho madding crowds.
