ON TO TILLAMOOK.
Some years ago, President A. B. Ham
mond, of the Astoria & Columbia River
Railroad Company, made the deliberate
statement, in this city, that "that rail
way line would be the first to enter tho
Tillamook country," and the news of
the hour is in direct conformity with that
declaration.
It is good news for Tillamook county,
and as good for Astoria. It means a vast
deal for the state and all its northwest
ern communities, since it will open up
to quick communication limitless re
sources hitherto submerged and nnap
proachable. There is a virgin world of
magnificent timber irvolved in the ex
ploitation of that section, aside from the
establishment of daily markets for the
cultivated staples and products of the
immense farm districts of Tillamook anJ
the intervening country.
Now that the assurance has gone forth
in this behalf, we, of Clatsop, with a
warm Tillamookian leaning and purpose,
hope the inauguration of the extension
of the "A. & C." will not be deferred
until the encouraging prospect is once
again lost in the mazes of time, inertia
and silence. We hope the word of
this capable man will be fortified and
proven by the early commencement of
the work ,and that the dawn of the new
year will see the venture so far along
as to preclude another instant of doubt
or foreboding.
It is an initiative carrying huge possi
bilities with it, and the period of dsap
pontment has been so long drawn out
that the first tangible sign of the reality
will be hailed with genuine and unal
loyed satisfaction, not only here, but in
Tillamook county, where the hunger and
thirst for the lively touch of inter
communication with the outer world is
intense. -
MA Hammond has said the word, and
that word should mean much and does
mean much, the only thing now want
ing is the outward and visible sign of
the actual launching of the scheme.
Hello, Tillamook!
ALBERT BEIT-RUSSEL SAGE.
Within a very few days two of the
wealthiest men of the present day have
gone the way of at) flch, leaving their
enormous fortunes behind them. As the
Oregonian remarked the other day, "they
left the money, probably, because they
could not take it with them." But the
fact that engage the attention of the
whole world, l the wonderfully different
dispositions made of the masked mil
lions, Albert Beit, died in Africa where
he had made his millions; in the midst
of a new continent iust awakenins to
the magical touch of the news, live cen
tury, and he carefully, and conscientious
ly. prescribed vast and enduring chari
ties for colleges, hospitals and other
agencies of common good, while Russel
Sage, who having lived for nearly 00
years in the heart of the heart of modern
life and its fullest expression for good
sod evil, turns his sixty millions still
further inward to the secluded and un
productive limitations of the family. Not
one dollar for humanity; not a cent for
the future honor of his name; not
mark to show that he thought or lived
for a soul beyond the confines of his own
home and its interests. The comparison
i odiou, sure enough, and may be cited
to the constant and unequivocal dis
paragement of the American spirit,
though, God be thanked, it lacks every
thing of Wing an essential type.

THE HUMAN VAMPIRE
By Police Magistrate DANIEL FINN of New York
HE human vampire is a terrible thing, and wo boo it in the
police court IN ALL ITS HIDEOUSNESS. It buttons
on the immorality of men and women, puts its claws in the
pockets of the push cart humanity, which, wretched and low
as it is, is infinitely superior to the thing that profit by ita ignorance.
IT WILL TAK MONEY DRIPPING WITH BLOOD AND REEKINQ
WITH THE WORST THERE 19 AND LAUGH AT YOU WHILE IT
IS DOING IT.
The grossnesa and brutality of man's inhumanity to nun and tho
whole worlds wolfishness toward woman, as scon from a police mag
istrate s bench, sometimes shako our belief in the things learned at
Sunday school. ? i ; .- 1 f I . ;'t 3
The love of money has got the world in a frenzy, and NOTHING
COUNTS AGAINST IT.
It kills the love of home and family; it makes repulsive, ugly,
slimy things out of men and women who Beem fair enough to look at
until you hear them open their mouths in a yawp that haa only money
for its theme and you see that the only motive that is propelling the
living thing is the tnholy, rapacious, vulture-like desire TO GAIN
A DOLLAR OR TWO or to keep from Jetting ono go. t , , t i r
The insolence of people who feel the power of money they posses,
got BY FOUL OR FAIR MEANS, is as bad in ita way as the
lack of decency on the part of those poof creatures who are trying to
get it by any of the means that have, as incidents in the getting of it,
frequent appearance in the police court.
THE INSOLENCE OF MONEY GOES TO TURN THE SOCIALISTIC
SPIRIT OF THE IGNORANT INTO ANARCHY.

The Great Inefficiency
Of Criminal Prosecution
By Unlttd State Judft EMORY SPEER of Georgia
SO far as the efficiency of criminal prosecution is concerned, it is
far safer to kill a man than it is to STEAL A MULE. In the
latter case EVERY MA in the community, with every sort
of gun, from an old fashioned Yager to the latest pattern, and every
canine adjutant of man, from the old fashioned yellow dog to the latest
improved Fido, will turn out and hunt down the thief.

TWELFTH ANNUAL REGATTA.
After a season of dubious conjecture
and half-hearted interest in the propo
sition, the Twelfth Annual Regatta of
Astoria is to be put on, with all the zest
and success for which the city is famous
in this particular. This i as it should
be. The event is expected everywhere.
Astoria's best name abroad, in the mat
ter of great entertainments, is bound
up in the regattas she has given. It is
peculiarly Astorian as far as this upper
coast is concerned, and to miss a year
would be detrimental to her prestige as
the head-center of one of the liveliest
attractions in the northwest. Get in,
now, everybody! Make it the jolliest
and freshest and best ever! It is yours,
and yours alone; there is no other city
to dispute the honor with you. The
year has been pretty strong on the pure
strings and Astoria has done a world of
good work in 1906, but she can forget
all the stress and charges of the past
months in the resounding enjoyment and
success of the biggest regatta she has
ever known, and she will do it, now that
her mind has. been made up I ,
Do Not Neglect Your Bowels.

Modest Claims Often Carry the Most
Conviction.
When Maxim, the famous gun inven
tor, placed his gun before a committee of
judges, he stated its carrying power to
be below what he felt sure the gun would
accomplish. The result of the trial was
therefore a great surprise, instead 0'
disappointment. It is the same with
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarr
hoea Remedy . They uot publicly boast
of all this remedy will accomplish, but
prefer to let the users make the state
ments. What they do claim, is that it
will positively cure diarrhoea, dysen
tery, pains in the stomach and bowels
and has never been known to fail . For

Often ft person is sized up by his appear
ance; by the tone that surrounds him. And
more often a business house is sized up by
tho stationary it uses. A cheap letter
head or a poor bill head gives a mighty
poor first impression and makes business
harder to transact Good printing costs no
more than poor printing. The first im
pression is half the battle ;in business.
