The case of Alexander Sigurdson, a
young man residing at Warrenton,
should receive more than ordinary at'
tention. Mr. Sigurdson is but 1) years
cf ago and Is in the employ of the A. ft
C. R. R. as a painter. Upon the com-
plaint of the father of Matiida Costa,
aged S years, he was arrested and
brought before the justice of the peace,
charged with an attempt to commit a
crime, which. If guilty, should have
sent him to prison for a long terra of
years.
The examination show ed conclusively
that there was not the remotest found
ation for the charge, and the deputy
prosecuting attorney very justly made
a motion to dismiss the case.
The father of this little girl was en
tirely too hasty in prosecuting. If re
ports are true, Mr. Sigurdson bears an
excellent reputation and it was gross
Injustice to have him dragged into
court under such a charge. If the par
ents had carefully investigated the
trouble he 'would have doubtless learn
ed enough to have caused anxiety as
to the conduct of the little girl.
- Thj whole affair Is to be regretted,
but it should serve as a lesson to par
ents to be sure they are right, or that
foundation for prosecution exists, be
fore taking steps Involving the charac
ter of a worthy young man and which
end In a serious reflection- upon the
parent and child prosecuting.

Reports have It that the great oil
wells of Pennsylvania and other east
ern states, from which the finer illum
inating oils are produced, are fast giv

to face with a serious problem. Texas
has little oil that can be refined at a
profit and California produces none bet

advance in price may be expected.
The game of Inter-coilegiata football
may be a little strenuous, but so Is life
la gf-neral. No man or woman amounts
to anything who cannot meet life

cheerfully. Football is a game that
Inculcates better habits, for no athlete

manly qualities and makes a young
man self-reliant, teaches him to hold
his temper, and, all in all, Is the best
American game of the day. Don't keep
your boy out of the game If he wants to
play. If he has pluck enough to get
into practice (games and win a place on

Astoria needs more business buildings
of commodious size. Every day one can
hear merchants complain of cramped
quarters. Building sites in the busi

but for some reason those owning prop

In order to have Astoria take the place
where she .belongs, Astoria people will
have to take the initiative.

iQF BAD BLOOD
'old sores, ulcers, abscesses
The best evidence of a bad condition of the blood and unhealthy state of

the bodily impurities are not passing out through the proper channels, but
f are left in the system to clog and poison the blood. So thoroughly does
the" poison permeate the system that every little scratch, cut or bruise

places becoming cancerous if not
treated promptly and in the right
way. Washes, salves and ointments
are good for external use, but they
cant stop the discharge or change
the condition of the blood, and for
this reason the sore never heals per
manently. Not until the blood is purged of
impurities and the system cleansed
of all harmful substances should the
ulcer heal, or the effect upon the sys
