The republican party of Oregon is happily equipped with candidates this year who have an extraordinary faculty of saying exactly what they think and what they stand for. And at the head of the list is James Withycorabe, the man who is to be the next governor, whose expressions on the exigencies of the campaign and the policies to be maintained by the republican staff of state officials, himself included, is with out parallel for conciseness and candor, and the correlative qualities of honesty and courage. His address at Logan hall WHAT A REPUPLICAN VICTORY MEANS FOR CLATSOP COUNTY. A. BRIX. Candidate fur the Legislature. last night was a masterpiece of elo quent detail along the lines of Oregon's needs and his purposes in that behalf, if the honors of election shall fail to him; and the whole house was deeply impressed with the earnest vigor of the man and his sahvart adherence to every high dictate of the principles of the party of which he is the leader and the exponent. Xo man who listened to him, whatever his political creed may have been, could deny to Mr. Withyeombe, the largess of a frank concession for ability and manfulness in stating, without equi vocation, the real inspiration behind him in this canvass, and of his honest purpose to fulfill the last pledge made. His range of subjects embraced all the vital issues in the projected administra tion of the state's government, and his conclusions on each were adequate and ample to satisfy any man who really de sires to see stable and equitable systems inaugurated in this state. He was lis tened to with profound attention that spoke louden than any repeated vol umnes of applause could speak, of the definite interest his address invoked, and it is needless to say Astoria has a full er and better conception of the man and his splendid program than ever before. It was a revelation. And revelations are what compel the respect and loyalty of men everywhere and at all times. ' ' 0- WHAT INTEREST HAVE WE? There are times when men who do the consecutive thinking in this community are almost forced to the ex traordinary conclusion that Astoria is without fixed and calculable interest in the bai' that liw off the mouth of the Columbia river. This conclusion is not a welcome one in any sense of the word, but it is almost (inescapable at times. Nine-tenths of the tonnage that crosses it goes, or comes, to, and from, Port land, and what does innure to this port is of a calibre that leaves the deepening of the water on its crest a matter of indifference with this city. Here is a nut for the Astorian to crack; and the sooneP he reaches a decision on this im portant score the better for him and bis city, lie has taken the ,;Ha, Ha," from the metropolis of this state just about as long as he ought to, and it is up to him to find out the real equities of the situation and put forth a strenuous hand for the preservation of his birth right and the development of his share in one of the most vital of his posses sions. That he has slept on his rights for more years than is any credit to him, I does not "debar" him, so to speak I TIIK MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON. I . 'I , X ' U. S. SENATOR C. W. FULTON.

On Monday next the case of the re publican versus the ''citizens" of t'lutsop county, will be up for adjudication be fore the people. They are the judges, and upon their fiat reU the hsue and all subsequent result. The republicans go More the court with clean hands, a wholesome phy and in their own name, style and status. The "citizens" enter court under a palpable disguise, both as to name and condition; they will po"e before the judge, and ask the arbitra ment of their claims, as citizens, when the whole Clatsop world knows that, in reality, they are democrats, and nothing else, with democratic leaders, democratic principles, and democratic aims and pur poses; in fact, THEY ARE DEMOCRATS and stultify themselves when they claim to be anything else. If republican Clat sop is to be cajoled and deceived once again with this flimsy mask and pre tense, then it will be because republican, partisan honor is absolutely dead within her border; but we are not yet ready to concede a single thought of thi, and look for a ringing and manly demonstra tion of republicanism emphasized by the biggest majority in years. 0 HAVE A CARE, GENTLEMEN! There is a grave question confronting the voters of the precinct known as "Astoria No. 6", whuffe the issue of local option, about to be submitted for decis ion at the polls, involves the ousting of a big and valuable industry, the North Pacific Brewing Company's plant, in the intert'st of that cause. Whether it is essential to force thw particular system of government on this locality, at this time, following it up, in logical sequence, with the, dismantling of a large and prosperous business, that means thou sands of dollars per annum, to the pre cinct, the city and the county, is a mat ter well worth the best and amplest, con sideration of every pmperty holder up there. As a menace to the peace und prosperity to the neighborhood, a word may be said, in repetition of u. well known city oflicer of Astoria, who, in conversation with another citizen deeply interested in this very question of local option, declared "that arrests and con victions in the city police court, as com ing from Uppertown and Cnioiitown, put together, were but one-fifth of the cases arising from ull the rest of tli city." This shows that on that score, at least, the people of No. 0 may go with reason able slowness in prosecuting the disrup tion of a big and thriving business and I ? I ' ( "' If , 1 .' !

ONE GRAIN OF HUMOR. In all the Dowie matter from first to last never has there been a gleam of humor until the iwi1 came into the hands of Judge Ijinclis. He has relieved a very tiresome situation by declining to inter fere with Dowie's u-e of the tabernacle at Zion City. "Let him have the place," cried the judge. "No matter if only a few can hear him. Let him hivve it. 1 sometimes make a speech myself, and I like to have a big hull. 1 like to think how many people might have had the pleasure of hearing me if they had only come. The bigger the hall, the most gratification a man can get from this consideration. I-t him have the. taber nacle." As a matter of fact, Judge Landis is a caiptal speaker, and it is doubtful if he ever saw half a dozen empty chairs liefore him in his life. DOES ASTORIA NEED IT? Homebody please tell us whether this city really need a first-class modern hotel; say, on (establishment to co't in the neighborhood of one hundred thousand dollars? Because, if it does, there is a chance to get it by the mens contribu tion of a. suitable lot for the structure. But, of course, if she don't wed it, why she may well keep silent, and let the investcmnt go elsewhere, where it may be better aprwdated. IF SHE DOES NEED, AND WANT IT, WHY DON'T SITE SAY SOMETHING TO INDICATE HER PROPER ESTEEM OK THE OF FER AND TREAT IT IN A BUSINESS FASHION? 0 EDITORIAL SALAD. In voting to build "the largest battlt ship afloat" the House of Representa tives seems to have taken unfair ad vantage of the fact that the Hon. R. P. Hobson, though already nominated for Congress, will have to wait two full years before breuking into that body. A man in Pennsylvania sold his wife for $3 and then spent the money for a banquet to the purchaser. Some women would sell their husbands for less.
