It is claimed by some that we are op posed to the purchase of a new steam roller for use in the street department of the city. This is a mistake. The Astorian is in favor of any and every thing that will contribute to the perma nence nd maintenance of - the dirt streets of the city. But there are other elements of the affair upon which we but echq the sentiment of a large per centage of our readers; and notable jrtong these is the manner of making such purchases, -We would have the committee on streets proceed in a regu lar way to secure so costly an adjunct lo the city's enginery and know what k is doing before entering into a con tract for the buy. They should hare a j written guaranty from the seller that I the machine will traverse, an3 do the work expected" ef it upon the heaviest grades ei tne city, and they can get this if they go after it. To buy an expensive machine of this soft in a haphazard fashion is a raw waste of money, and 'Astoria is too near the margin of her public indebtedness to throw any money around loose. Host of the work cut out for a roller is upon the steep hill sides and whatsoever is bought in this line must measure up to the absolute re quirements of this situation. That the old horse-roller is a horse and man killer has been known here for a long while, and it is far too light to thoroughly key the crushed rock that simply must be keyed if it is to do the service expected of "it. ... 0 CHAMBERLAIN'S BLUNDER. There may have beetl a mere fraction of merit in keeping his word with the Clatsop democracy after having promised the release of Paddy Lynch in the event that this county should give hira a ma jority in the recent election, but George E. Chamberlain's claim to wisdom suf fered a heavy jolt when he made good on that proposition. The better element of the people of this city and section are outraged with this expression of political good faith on his part, and they understand the whole situation, from be ginning to end. He has blundrered grave ly and will hear from it for many a day to come. It was an insult to the clean citizenry of this city and county and if he does not believe it, a personal visit here and a few inquiries will soon con vince hira of it. There were other things he could have done with infinitely bet ter graoe, for Clatsop and simply noth ing he could have done with less. Some of the very men primarily responsible for the dirty strategy, are utterly sick of their connection with it, but this is a minor feature of the wholesale public disgust that is abroad here in conse quence of this political trick; and it will not be forgotten a whit sooner than it will be forgiven, for it was a gratuit ous affront, and such things do not die easily nor quickly. , , Thin arms should be washed twice a day with a fine lather of soap, rinsed well, dried thoroughly and then rubbed rigorously.

Portland ha just awakened to the fart that the lias been shamefully cheat ed by the street railway combine; that she ha been, gulled to the last dollar's worth of franchise property she pot eed; and that she i, practically, with out recourse except upon the plea of eminent domain for the recovery of the ravaged rights she gave o willingly to the adroit thieve. Well, it was getting around to Portland, anyway; every other city on the coat has had an experience of the sort with corporate vultures, and now the Oregon metropolis can put up her fight We hope for the city' sake, she will put up a clean, hard, .winning scrap; that she will be o successful that every other outraged community in the land will have a winning predicate to operate upon when they shall be called upon to fight the like. But, in the light of pa-t experience, the country over, we are compelled to nurse a 'reasonable doubt of that uccess- 0000 00 000 00 00 00 000 EDITORAL SALAD. 0 000000000000000000 Shabby manner are le becoming than shabby gowns. 0 Good breeding is the surest and quickest route to beauty. o ' The latent quotation on Syrian brides in Chicago u $1700 per. - 0 Today is the meat of a sandwich com posed of yesterday, today and tomorrow. It's a wise woman who knows that every new fashion is not becoming to her. ' 0 Pluck the pansies every day if you want the bed to furnish full quota of blossom. Those women who regard marriage as a necessary evil are the ones who make it so. The professional dressmaker is about the only woman in the world who is rtnA at ti mi roa Cauliflowers should be turned head downward in cooking, so that no scum may by any chance settle on the white portion. 0 ' ' A "New Woman's" newspaper is about to be started in New York. These things happen with all the regularity that marks eclipses of the moon. " 0 Life's problems may rex us. It's troubles perplex us, but whatever our lot may be, the woman of grace who has an ngly face, always has our sympathy. 0 Speaking of spasmodic waves of morality in political life, etc, did you ever notice that women are "re formed" every time they come from the dress maker's? Save time by washing a half bushel of potatoes at one time and put them away where they will be handy and ready for preparing without another washing. When an "Anti-Gossip . Society" , is formed in a neighborhood it is a sure sign that the women are afraid some newcomer will find out more about them than they will about her. 0 The most perfect teeth in the world are said to be those of the Thibetans, although there is not tooth brush in the whole country and no form of cleansing the teeth is ever practiced, 0 The girl who cannot afford long gloves should not wear short sleeves. The effect of a short sleeved jacket and bare arms is not lovely. Girls of moderate income are more " becomingly dressed when they are simply clad; to imitate the extravagant styles of the rich women is really absurd. 0 Keep close to people who understand you, who believe in you, who will help you to discover yourself and encourage you to make the most of yourself. This may make all the difference to you be tween a grand success and a mediocre existence. Stick to those who are try ing to do something and to be somebody in the world People of high aims, lofty ambiton. Keep close to those who are dead in earnest. ' Ambition is contagious. You will catch the spirit that dominates in your environment. The success of those about you who are trying to climb upward will encourage and stimulate you to struggle Wider if you have, not done quite so well yourself. -0 , ' .
