NINTH ANNUAL REGATTA Astoria's annual regatta opens at o'clock this morning. No previous re gatta -ever opened under more auspic ious circumstance. The weather prom ises perfection. The best racing crews ever assembled to the Northwest are here. Visiting carnival queens in trl umphial robes, are here from the inte rior. Dignitaries from civil anr mili tary life are present. A part of the North Pacific naval squadron, under Commander Perkins, lies in the-harbor and officers and men will participate in the festivities. The committee has provided an excellent program. A large crowd is already on the ground and every train and every boat brings more people. The queen. In a'l her lovllness, and the richest robes ever dlsplayd in the Northwest, is in readiness for cor onation and will do honor to the oc casion. The remainder of the week should be a gala season in the city founded by John Jacob Astor. Its a time to put away care and breathe the spirit of the occasion. Its a season to revel In the atmosphere of recreation and sociability. .Its time to look pleasant and be pleasant letting the contagion of good cheer take hold of others. Everybody will be better for a week of relaxation spent in whole some amusement. ' It will put red cor puscles in the blood, elasticity in the gait and buoyancy In the soul. It will banish gloom, drive away despondency and sweeten the disposition. The re gatta opens today and here's to a good time for everybody. Wfc.

Clay an eastern newspaper says that "for more than tweny years he was the only man south of the Ohio river who en Joyed absolute freedom of speech." The reason of this, however, was that there was no othr man south of the Ohio, during those twenty years, who was able to abridge Gen. Clay's 'iberty of speech, no matter-how muci he de aired to do so. Several were u fortun ate enough to attempt It MAHM) V Malthoid Roofing Fire resisting.

The Trans-Mississippi Commercial Congress in session at Seattle have a big question to deal with In the timber interests of the country. There Is sure to be a clash of opinion between del egates from the deforested states of the east and those of the coast, living In forests of virgin timber. Govern ment surveys show Oregon has 231,000, 000,000 feet of standing- timber and Washington 118,000,000,000. Other esti mates gives Oregon SI $.000, 000,000 and Washington 150,000,000,000 making a to tal of 49S,0OO,0O0,0O0. The total accord ing to government estimate Is S49.000, 000,000. Allowing one half of the larg er estimate as capable of being convert ed Into lumber, and Oregon' share Is 159,000,000,000; Washington's 90,000,000, (00; total :49.O0O,0OO,0O0. How long It will last at the rate it Is now being cut Is a fruitful topic. There will be delegates In the convention to con tend that the northwest's wealth of tim ber Is practically Inexhaustible, and that speculation on probable exhaus tion is useless. There will be others -aith figures to show in Just how many years hence the western forests will be a denuded waste. It is estimated that Washington now saws annually 2,000, 000,000 and Oregon 1,000,000,000 feet. At that rate It will be just S3 years until the present supply of timber is exhaust ed, not reckoning the young growth that will come Into marked nor the In creasing rate of consumption of lum ber. The lovers of the fragrant weed as well as the users of tobacco In other forms will find satisfaction In the con clusions drawn by the Edinburgh Scots man. which has been investigating the "tobacco habit" from a medical and scientific point of view. Aftfr reviewing the evidence pro and on it concludes that the temperate w of the fragrant weed in th form rf a good cigar or pipe is not injuri ua to the average man. Intemperance iii ihe use of tobacco is undoubtedly tirmful. The reason why cigarette ':king is worse than either the cigar or the pipe is that "th smoker almost universally inhales the tobacco fumes, ar.d, becoming habituated to this quick toxic action,' be will not smoke with out inhaling, for th safrws reason that the morphine habitq-, accustomed to thj hypodermic rr.r?hvl, will not be satisfied with th 'ln'4 through the mouth. iVnh vktirrs waunt quick action."

IRISH PROSPECTS The Irish land bill If Bnnlly enactevl, Is promising of better times for the RnK'rald Isle. John B. Redmond, one of the fore most of the Irish nationalists, says of the bill: "If It works, and It Is confi dently hoped It will, there Is no ques tion but that it will effect a revolution j In the condition of Ireland." j The Buffalo Courier, In commenting ypon the measure, rightly declares that j the ract that "tha bill has expeditiously gone through the traditionally conser vative House of Lords, In which many large Irish land holders have seats. Is an enlivening demonstration that the world moves. The same body strenu ously antagonised and defeated Mr. Gladstone's efforts in aid of the un happy Island. Now the spectacle has i been witnessed of a measure more lib eral than any proposed, introduced by a government composed of Conserva tive and Liberal Unionists, and passed with tha prompt assistance of peers formerly irreconcilable to any advanced policy of Irish administration. But the lords have learned the value of dis cretion, and no longer dare hold public opinion in contempt." Verily the world doea move most po tently, as Is evidenced by the revolution of feeling manifested in the House of Lords regarding the plain duty of the British government towards Ireland. .
