The Oregonian, of yesterday, in its editorial accounting for its silence on the question of Mr. Hammond's exten sion of the "A. &, C." from Seaside to Tillamook, while dealing cleverly enough with its own laches in keeping mum on the subject, injects an insinuation that both Portlad and Astoria are "on a riv er," leaving the uninformed reader to infer that both cities are on the same river and relatively remote from the ocean; an idea that cannot be permitted to stand without essential qualification. In the first place there are two rivers in Tolved, the Columbia, which empties in to the Pacific 10 miles from the docks of Astoria; and the Willamette, which empties into the Columbia 90 miles in land from Astoria, with Portland nest ling 12 long miles above its confluence with the great artery of the Northwest; the whole situation summing itself into the positive and potent fact that Astoria is an even hundred miles nearer deep water than the metropolis and just far enough removed from it to give safe nd commodious shelter to the ships that hail in from the sea; while Portland, with a slough for a harbor, is attainable only after 112 miles of towage or pilot age, or both; conditions, which, tinder certain influences yet to assert them selves, will nvifce the "coinm'rcial su premacy" of Astoria not quite so much a matter of contempt and in':fifience as the Oregonian seems disposed to accord it. The editor of the Astiria is thank ful for the friendly suggestion con tained in the same artich. that he "go to the seashore, take off his shoes and IS.oc.ks apd. bat, and cool off." and only 'deprecates the utter needlessness of the process. The weather he-e is delic iously cool and really inspirirg, and renders any pilgrimage to the coast line a sheer waste of time. Such J'ights are rserved for the metropolitan sufferers from the perennial beat that renders Portland so intolerable, and the glad hand of Astoria is always o-rstretclieu thitherward. 0 TILLAM00K-AST0RIA. There is cause for congratulation, and for ready enterprise, in the assunnee that the Hammond line is to build south ward from Seaside to Tillamook. Every storian is deeply interested in this proposition since it affects him more r.carly than anyone outside of Tilla mook itself. His the duty of culti vating, and arranging, in these early days, for the reception and dlspos' of the products of the neighboring county; to provide a real and acceptable mar ket for every pound exported thence, to make Astoria the depot for delivery ana dintribution first, and the market, for all it can consume, for all time to come. It U uneleps to bit idle and permit other commercial agencies to enter there and bind down the generous output that is certain to innure with the completion of this railway. There is, 0r should be, a reciprocal sense of reliance and good will between the adjoining counties that wJU contribute to the adjustment of these things on a basis that means much for Astoria if only we get in in time and develop the situation, This city is the flrt and logical point for the hlp went ot everything consumable out of THE SALMON SHORTAGE. The Astorian publishes this morning, in another column, a summary of the Pacific Coast catch of salmon fur the present season, which, admitting all pos sible errors, leaves the situation ex ceedingly dubious, and beyond the reach of anything like a normal issue, two weeks hence. It i one of thoe im mense hiatuses in the organized busi ness 0f the world that cannot be helped, nor accounted for and must be debited in the endless running account of hitory itself. Luckily it brings no devastation nor suffering with it, as the firms, com paies and men engaged in the vast en terprise are of a class perfectly able to meet the delinquency and carry over to the compensating yield of another aud greater catch; though it operates to deny the world its full share of a delect able food commodity and enhances the cost, somewhat, of that which does go to it. It i regrettahle, but not de plorable. 0 000000000000000000 0 EDITORAL SALAD. 0 000000000000000000 How about using that old worn-out mowing machine to cut briers along thi fences?

ASTORIA SPORTS AT GOLDFIELD -PETE" GRANT, BRINGS LUCK TO CANS. COLORED FIGHTER ACTS AS HIS BUSINESS MANAGER 115.000 OFFER FOR BULL FIGHT Krt while members of Atori' sport ing fraternity are now in the limelight at (JoUltield, Nevada, according to in formation received in this city. It i stated by friends here that "Pete Crant, has taken charge of the famous rolored tighter, '.loe Owns' business affairs, since his arrival in Ooulllcld, and is backing the "coon" for all he is worth In the coming an-Nelon ftstle matinee, "terry" Sullivan, another of Atoria' prominent gentry, in conjunc tion with "Tex" Kickard has caused even the native of ColdrleM to sit up and take notice, by wiring Don Ramon de Gunsale of Juaret, Mexico, an offer of $25,000 for a bull tight on Labor Day morning, as an added attraction to the dans-Nelson fight. "Pete" Grant'a.brotber Jack, who live in Portland, is mentioned prominently as referee for the big match. It is said further, that since "Pete" has taken over the management of the negro's affairs, fortune or luck, as it may 1 termed, has turned in the pugili-t' favor and his nightly winnings at craps are large. One night last week Joe, accom panied by his business manager, entered The Northern" and in three hours Oans cleaned up $1800 at his favorite game of craps. A crowd of gamblers and mining men, which followed the colored lad and Grant in their "come seven-eleven" also won. ayt "I suffered from a weakness of the back and kidneys for a number of years. There was a constant dull ach ing pain in the loins and ss far up at the shoulders. Nnot only did my back ache but there mi a weakness from the kidney secretions which wss very annoying and disturbed my rest. 1 heard about Poena Kidney Pills and one drty I stepped Into Charles Rogers' drug store and got a box.

TERRIBLE One writer says that it is women's demand for cheapness that makes shop proprietors overwork and underpay their employes. 0 ' A well known oculist says only one pair of eyes in every fifteen is perfect.

LOS ANGELES, August 13.-W. H. Whiteman, former judge of the Supreme Court of Arizona and later adjutant- general of the territory, is dead at Ter minal Island, of softening of the brain. Whiteman was a native of Ohio and about 60 years of age. AN ASTORIA CASE. SCALP HUMOR Badly Affected With Sores and Crusts Extended Down Behind the Ears Some Years Later Painful sand Itching Pustules Broke Out on Lower Part of Body Son Also Affected. A TRIPLE CURE BY CUTICURA REMEDIES The farm must be a little republic in whieh there is a recognized head. That head must be the father. Close beside him mut be the mother. If the law of love rules, no other law will be neces sary. 0 A woman says the best thing about the elbow sleeves the girls are wearing this summer is that they can go right from the parlor to the kitchen and wash the dishes without having to change their clothes. It is not generally known that the dirty milker, that is, the one who gets the most dirt in the milk, is the one who gets the most cream up. Dirt con tains bacteria, and bacteria causes the cream to rise. But it is a fact. " 0"" Some great and benign correspondence school should put a love letter on the market that would do the work and yet when it got around to the divorce court, would not sound as though the human race were still in the monkey stage of development. The city council of Birmingham, Eng land, has increased the number of women health inspectors from four to twenty, because of the excellent results achieved in the homes of the poor and in the fac tories. In the same city the policemen have been taught the principles of "first aid." When a woman whose husband works on the railroad in New Zealand learns that her husband has been killed, if she has five children she knows that she will receive from the government at once a pension of four hundred dollars a year, one hundred and thirty dollar on her own account and three hundred and twenty-five dollars on account of her chllrcn. There isn't anybody trying to chest her out of this. There isn't any body who could make a profit by cheat ing her out of it. Morning Astorian, 60 cents per month, delivered by carrier. Many More Like It Ia Astoria. The following case is but one of many similar occurring daily in Astoria. It is an easy matter to verify its correct ness. Surely you cannot ask for better proof than such conclusive evidence. D. E. Duncan, who is employed with his brother at the Astoria Soda Works, 426 Duane street, snd who resides at the corner of Duane and Ninth streets, "About ten years ago my scalp be came badly affected with sore and itching humors, crusts, etc., and extend tog down behind the cars. My hair came out in places also. I was greatly troubled; understood it was ecsema. Tried various remedies, so called, with out effect. Saw your Cuticura adver tisement, and got them at once. Ap plied them as to directions, etc., and Iter two weeks, I think, of use, was dear as a whistle. " I have to state also that late last fall, October and November, 1904, I was suddenly afflicted with a bad erup tion, painful and itching pustules over the lower part of the body. 1 suffered dreadfully. In two months, under the skilful treatment of my doctor, con joined with Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, I found myself cured. "Six years ago my son was laid up with a severe cold, a bard cough, and finally painful eruption all over the body. I procured the Cuticura Remedies as soon as possible, and after his faith ful use of same was as well as ever ia two weeks, as well as I can recall. He has never had a return of the illness, as far as I know. "I have always been pleased to com mend the Cuticura Remedies, and testify as to their efficacy. I am a veteran of the late Civil War, '61-65, between seventy and eighty years of age. Youra truly, II. M. F. Weiss, ltosemond, Christian Co., 111., Aug. 31, 1005." Compl.
