The Hotel "World, In an editorial on the value of a good hotel, has this to say: "William E, Curtis, the famous correspondent, who has traveled In every country on the globe, and been a boarder at the Waldorf-Astoria, New York; the Cecil, London; the Conti nental, Paris, and enjoyed the comforts of the kahns of India and Persia, de clares that nothing helps a town so much as a good hotel. He quotes the trifling Influence the building of a new courthouse or other public building has on a town compared with that of a modern hotel and places the new hotel above every other effort to advertise and help a town to a dignified position." No man is qualified to speak more ac curately on this subject than Mr. Cur tis and his observations have appli cation In' Astoria. A modern, up-to-date hotel here would fill a long-felt want and there will never be a more nusplcious time for one to be built. Portland's hotel accomodations are now Inadequate for the traveling public and with the 1905 fair coming on, It will be swamped. Portland may may build more but It is hardly probable that U will build In time, any more first-class, or even second-class, hotels. Astoria Is In position to catch the overplus. The fair grounds are on the A. & C. railroad, and every Astoria train will be in plain view of the crowds. ' A large sign should be erect ed opposite the grounds telling how long a run to the city founded by John Jacob Astor and to the Pacific ocean end the same sign should give assur ance of good hotel accomodations. As toria is In a position to reap Immediate and future results from the coming fair, hut the erection of a hotel Is nec essary to secure fullest results. , Aside from future prospects there is demand for a modern hotel now. It lu-ed not be as large as the Hotel Port land but of proportions to meet the de mands and of modern equipment. Such a building, hotel men say, should bo a good investment In Astoria.

The 33 1-3 per cent Increase in Clat sop's valuation means merely a reduc tion of 33-1-3 per cenf in tax levies a tondition that would have been brought about long ago had it ijot been for the old method of levying state taxes. The first thing we know somebody will be employing the expression "strenuous" in dealing with the British political situation. Wild geese are winging their way southward. Weather prophets may now prognosticate as to the coming winter weather- Ha ring obliterated Kastoria, It is now up to the Turks to go after Paine's Cel ery Compound and Lydia Plnkham's Little Liver Pills. It is to be presumed from perusal of the Oreganian that Sunday was the looth anniversary of the execution of Robert Emmett. Imagine anyone getting $500,000 out of a Seattle bank! Surely, Walter Erlckson, who demanded this sum the other day, is hopelessly insane. Oom Paul Is charitable. He has lived to see Chamberlain hissed on the streets and yet keeps silent.
