On this, the first day of the year 1906, tha Morning Aatorian herehr expreeea, and duvets, it good will, and cheerful wishe to everybody on earth; to it frienda and enemies, it patron and noa -patrons, it reader and non-reader, it business nssociste and those uncon nected with it in any way; it political upporter and the opposition, far and near; to each man, woman and child to whom thes line shall com at home and abroad, for a bright, successful. happy and prosperous Xew Year. behind him, will awing to the last man, and without 'any needle delay. The f't that Frank Steunenherg wa too wuoh of a man to stamt the domi nation of tha wont clement of tlx party that elected him (the IViuooratir) is at the bottom of hit death. It t undoubtedly the work of some hound. jut from the Idaho penitentiary where Stounenhvrg'a, manliness sent him tor other beastly wk' during tha Ooucr d'Ah'ite riot of and no atom hould he left unturned on top of earth nntil he i in the hantU of the outraged law. We shall hail hi capture, eonvirtion, and utter enalt,r with satisfaction. man repudiate tha montrou InipuU tioa that he w driving hi automobile at taenty-flva mtlea an hour, when it wa really running at only twenty-four and a half niilea! THK PRESTIGE OF INITIATIVE. The man, or the coiuiuunity, that in itiate (omething of ralue to himself, or it, command instant and genuine respect; and this whether it i a nufr ceo or not. People who move and plan and strive are the one that are looked up to. Astoria is far better known to day for tbe one line railway system that she inaugurated than for anything elite, unless it be for the hMieriea and mill she haa founded and maintained. Onee she begina a campaign for some thing remarkable and profitable, that moment the world takes a new interest in her and watt-he her progrea, and frequently take a hand itaelf in her destinies. So long as she sits still and doe nothing for herself or her future. just so long will the commercial actiyl ties let her alone (save, where they ran see a chance to exploit her for their own peculiar advantage). Take a grip on the lever of prosperity, fire up with the fuel of local endorsement, nd go ahead with your progressiva program, and the world will declare you an engi neer, anyway! UNCLE RUSSELL'S SMILE. ASTORIA'S ALRIGHT. Aj a sea port on long and danger ous winter coast, the percentage of loss and accident inside, and outside, her bar, make Astoria one of tbe safest place in the world for tbe mariner, There i reason for thi. Her pilot, master, sailors and dockmen are among tha best trained and hardiest on the eoaat; careful, shrewd, intelligent, ob serving, practiced and practising, men, with a pride in their business and a realizing en of their responsibilities. There b nothing invdlou in this. Other ports may have just the same advant age, only Astoria seem to use her' with closer application and more pro nounced success. THANES BEI Thanks be given to whatever source or ajrencr i responsible for it, that there is no politics in public enterprise. Astoria can go ahead with her own public-spirited plan and purposes upon the larger and full -r basis of com posite action snd fear no olmtacle from the dominant party or tha party not quite so dominant. The common good of Astoria is the spell that lay the devil of party trife, and the whole community can rejoice in the Immunity. If ahe wants to build a seawall, some new aiill. a railroad to Tillamook, or any other little thing she think will do ber good, she can go ahead with it minus any trepidation trnm thi old bugbear of partian intcrfercnee. And these are ome of tlx- things she in tends to do, toot TBE IDAHO OUTRAGE. The murder of ex-tJovcrnor Steuw-n-berg, of Idaho, ft the door of hi home on Saturday evening last, by mean of a bomb deli!erately put there in pre concerted shape to do it deadly work as b opened tlie gate, is on a par with anything of the sort that the American pre has had to herald from the Old World during tha past two yesrs. W applaud tbe prompt action of r,oTernor Gooding in putting the State oa record in the matter of reprisal a lie baa, and trust tha murderer and all The wit of the pre will crack many joke at the rxpvnse of Russell Sage for reappearing in Wall street with mil lion to lend when interest rate are msiiull h"ni. " Xnfffthil in t -- good thing that there are men around like Russell Sage with money to lend and the nerve to lend it during the financial pinch. Men who put out loan instead of drawing them in during financial stringency are the men who avert panics. It i characteristic of Russell Sage that he always made his heaviest loana when nobody else wanted to lend. He i reported to have loaned (30,000,000 in the 3 hours at a time when interest on call loans was bounding up to panic figure. Poubtle he exacted good security and heavy interest rate, but nevertheless he ea d off tlie money market. Ho relieved the pressure on the hank and asited in tiding over a serious tring-ncy. By lending his money at this time he ha rendered the whole country a service and stiffen ed the backbone of a weak money mar ket. It is only fair to say thi, and not i look entirely at the selfish side of the old financier' operation.

Hat in hand. lrei,lent Ciprano Castro politely send hi greeting to "the In dustriou American people, and wishes them "health and prosperity in the new year." Sam to President Castro, My hi shadow never grow leu, and may hi debt and debtor diminish to the vanishing point! Congressman Suiter thinks that Croe u could not play poker with John D. Rockefeller1. Possibly not, but it re lieves the situation to surmise that be would not hav cared to, while a to Mr. Rockefeller It ia certain that he would not play poker with any one, Mr. Sutler's illustration, therefore, i not a particularly happy one. The statement that Joaph H. fhoate. recently American Amtaisaador to the Court of St. James, is likely to be chosen by the President as our repre sentative to the Hague, will be received with pleasure by every good American, a his actual appointment would meet with general approbation. Mr. ("hoate is a representative American and served hi country as Ambassador with credit both to bimelf and it. Tlie Chinese Cooly question, with which the new British Ministry ha to leal in South Africa, may he understood from this description by a correspond ent of the Chinese scare in Johannes burg: "Tbe white workers in the mince carry revolvers; the police are armed with ball cartridge and bayonet; camp ed yonder at Auckland Park is a mobile column of mounted men, resdy to move gainst an enemy at a moment's notice: rhss eotrntry tulb ms tttsv We- f the swelling rise are armed to the teeth and live at night in barricaded and for tihVd house."

"That touch th right spot, salif he queried, "It does, John) It dor." the Judge replied. John diappeared, but was toon recalled by th tinkle of a handbell. The judge looked up, with a twinkle U hi eye.
