He come and he loaves, hut in hi brief stay he i invariably observ ant.' He fe the fault and virtues of a community almot at om; the na tive. tlie'people who have lived their live within a well delineated square become inane, they accept traditional belief with concern that i maddening and often will they promulgate the im possible, rather than submit to his prognostication. It requires but study to appreciate the logic of the wanderer' argument. True, he is a man without a home, he can right fully claim no com munity aside from the place of hi birth, but he has had opportunity to benefit by the mistakes of the many. In knocking around, so to speak, from country to country, from state to state, from city to city; he observe the cause of a city's progress or retrogression. At times he materializes opportunely and is enabled to prevent a mistake which might be productive of deplorable re sults. In this he is at once offensive to the element which must suffer for the good of the whole; others accept the changes that may ensue as a result of his tutoring with inexcusable apathy. 1 A cood newspaper i evidence of a city's standing among communities. We cannot deny that the Astorian could be considerable better, speaking, more par ticularly of size. It is the opinion among most people in the city today, people whose prerogative it is to ex press opinions, that the Astorian is now the best printed and classified news medium that has ever ben pub lished in the city. We are alreaJy ol ligated to inaugurate the colored comic supplement in our Sunday edition and to improve the paper through various channels, but our desire to improve will not then be satiated. We aspire to seven columns, to 12 pages, to a 1C and to a 24-page edition on Sunday. It may be that year will elapse before we can accomplish all this. Notwithstand ing we are optimistic. The seven-day paper has proved a success, despite the admonitions of half a hundred Molly Pratt. We have kept some of our promises and intend to keep them all. It is a fact that our political policy, or, may we say, our moral policy, differs from the ideas of many. But what are newpapers for to purvey news, or to further the artifices of corruption and degradation. If a person has sense enough to know the function a news paper should perform, he will read the paper that gives the news. The As torian uses the Associated Press tele graphic service there can be no ques tion as to the thoroughness and authen ticity of the stories. The local paper speaks for itself. Deplorable errors have appeared in our columns, so have they in the columns of every paper in the world. Disaffection has demoralized both armies and cities at critical times. It is entitled to no place in the minds of sensible people and so soon as Astorian determine to remove this bacterium from their grey matter, the city will forge ahead in a manner which will as-tonii-h even the sanguine. The itiner ant often asks why the large city is in land, and not here. In this particular instance it is because Astoria has been made io suffer from the operations of devouring corporations. But this con dition cannot endure for all time. Xo corporation is infallible. Ultimately a corporation whose object is the further ance of propositions for the city's good and progress will absorb these outide corporations responsible for its stagna tion. But not until Astoria induces the gooi corporation to come will such tran spire. Those who are. void of enterprise volunteer that nothing can be done, the city will always be the Astoria of to day, the fish will be canned, the lum ber mills operated a before, but bo other manifestation of prosperity will develop. People who argue thusly should be in Salem, pity forbid suggestion a to the particular abode. A great city can be built at the foot of this wooded peninsula, a city of handsome edifice and on solid ground. If need be the hill can give way to a level tract. Ship flying the flags of every nation can come here, not to call merely and drop off a ton or so of freight, but to dis charge entire cargoes upon substantial quays, which can 1 built. The mer chandise can I conveyed to the cars of a great railway which can be built; the city, it, terminal. To many this will appeal a a fond dream. Because there is a deplorable lack of "gu-aheaditive-ness," or "make-gooditiveness," in many part of Oregon, i not sufficient ex cuse for a luck of it here. The popula tion of h city should be at least 130.000. It is a task of years, true, but the start must lie made. CJive your chamber of commerce support worthy of the body. It will not be a poor move to employ a secretary at a good salary, A man who can answer the queries that now go unanswered. Bring the itinerant with monev to vour city, take him to a hotel; not a hovel. Point out the real virtue of the city. There is money to ie made here in real estate. If a man wishes to buy, give him half a show. It is only fair that he should make something on his investment. The man who buy will be but the forerunner of a hundred. The itinerant will build this city for you. and m soon a you appre ciate this the first shovelful of earth will be turned. This i my parting shot to you, Astorian. Read it today and tomorrow. Put this paper away and read it a month hence, or even a year. BLAISE PHILLIPS.

A bonfire on the beach entertained liio guests at the ijalt Aalr Wednesday even ing. Popcorn, fruit and watermelon constituted the refreshments. When the fire had burned low, the guests returned to the house and danced until midnight. A sailing party, composed entirely of girls, was one of the 'pleasant affair of the week at Shoalwater bay. The ah mmce of men at that end of the Wacn was unnoticed, a half of the in tue party attired them-sdves in their lvth ers clothes.
