"Train up a child in the way he should go and even when old he will not depart from If Prov. xxli.:8. Apropos of numerous complaints made relative to acts of vandalism committed by young hoys; of Insulting and obscene remarks made to ladles from young men congregated on the street corners, tt is evident that many of the parents are not familiar with the scriptures admonishing them as to ' bringing up and educating their child -dren in the paths they should go. Too much latitude Is allowed young men. " Too little Interest Is taken in their ; moral training. ; They do not learn ' vandalism or obscenity at home. One of the principal causes of the present . condition of boys in Astoria and their propensity for acts of lawlessness, is because their early training Is neglect ed. Good Judgment Is not exercised In the books or papers which they are al , lowed to read. There are too many dime novels sold at the stores. Sen sational papers like the San Francisco Examiner, the Portland Journal and several eastern papers, whose columns : reek with sensational accounts of crimes and criminals are not fit Jour 1 M A- im,H. I . . nothing refining or educating in read ing accounts of murders, daring ad ventures and the like, but the most pernicious of all literature is the de tective stores and lives of noted crim inals sold at the book stores. Nearly all the crimes committed . both in murders, hold-ups, train rob beries and the like, are committed by young men from 17 to 22 years of age. One young man aged 19 is now in the Portland Jail awaiting trial for hold ing up a man on the Morrison street bridge, and he is enjoying the noto riety. A description of the parties that held up the Spokane Flyer a few days, are are all young men, averag ing about 18 years of age. Nine-tenths of all the crimes committed are by young men. When rich a state of af fairs exists, It is the duty of the re spectable Journals to sound the cry ot warning, and admonish parents of youn men in Astoria of the scriptural injunction, "Train up a child in the way he should go and even when old he will not depart from it" There are a large number of young men employed at the various store of Astoria who show the good effect of early, religious training. They find employment, because they are fitted for it, not only with sufficient mental ca pacity to comprehend the duties re quired of them, but because they do not ape the high collared dude that stands on the street corners and makes Insulting remark.- to ladles passing by. These young men are certain to rise to positions of trust and distinc tion, and they offer a striking contrast to the street corner loafers. If these young men who frequent street cor ners; who indulge in vandalism; whoae actions, manners and inclinations show a lack of refinement, only knew that they are watched by merchants and those who employ young men, and that it is impossible for them to secure em ployment. That, the fact that they frequent dance halls and associate with (the lowest and vilest, class ot prostitutes, and then Ingratiate them- TALE OF WOE. Among tht unpleasant duties as signed to a newspaper is to chronicle the demise of a friend, or the winding up of the earthly affairs of a commit tee appointed to carry out a certain specified object. On this beautiful Sunday morning when the church bells are ringing as an admonition to saints and sinners from the annolnted follow ers of the Meek and Lowly One, who had no hotel wherein to lay His head, comes as a crash out of a clear sky, the sad Intelligence that the Astoria hotel committee has turned its toes up'to tht dasies and gone to that bourne from whence no hotel committee ever re turns. Born of por and misguided parents the hotel progeny was ushered into ex istence amid the blare of trumpets and the plaudits of those having hotel sites for sale. Although the child was weak and puny and had no professional nurse to administer to its wants, It was thought it would grow and develop into manhod, but fate decreed differently. After a short and precarious career, it gave up the ghost and has gone from our gaze like a beautiful dream. "Oh death, where is thy sting. Oh grave, where is thy victory. Evidently the hotel committee was conceived in sin and born in Iniquity. Developments have shown that It bad no excuse for living. Animated by a grand and enobling impulse, all lesset aspirations lost their proper place in harmonllng subservience. At one time, while in a comotose condition, re storauves were applied and it was raised from its lethergy, but was too puny and fragile to survive the trying ordeal and gave up the ghost, passing into the sweet subsequently. o SENATOR PILES. The Washington legislature settled the senatorial contest In that state by the eleclon of Samuel Piles as TJnled States senator. The three leading cltl ens of Washington vied with each other to secure the senatorial toga. Spo kane had a favorite son in Mr. Swee ney, a multi-millionaire, but he stated that he could not afford to buy the office and if he won it, It must be on his merits. King county, according to an article published In the Tacoma Ledger some time ago raised $100,000 to secure the election of Mr. Piles. Any man with that amount of money be comes a favorite among representa tives ana senators. Tacoma had a favorite son In Allen G. Foster, who has represented the state at Wash ington for' the past six years. Tacoma is an outlying suburb of Seattle, al- thought It Is In another county. Ther has always been rivalry between tht two cities, especially In politics. When King and Spokane counties unite they generally carry everything befort them, and poor little Tacoma Is left out in the cold. Samuel Piles is a man of ability, ar, orator of magnetic Influence, and an able and popular man. He will no doubt represent our sister state in congress with distinction and honor, and will do much toward solidifying the re publican factions in King county. o , far.
