u SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, THE MORNING ASTOItlAN, ASTORIA, OREGON. SAN FRANCISCO, THE DAUNTLESS IMPRESSIONS GLEANED BY ASTOR ' IAS MAYOR ON HIS RECENT VIS IT TO THE FIRE RIVEN METROP OLIS OF THE PACIFIC COAST. Mayor Herman Wise, just home from a ten-day trip to 'he f union old Bay City, is full of the live and alert ipirit that actuate that great and disabled town, and in the following ters. way make known the impressions that be let him on his recent sojourn there: San Franciscos Inn Dauntless" it the title of a little advertisement hand ed to passengers upon all the trains ar riving in that city. San Francisco is dauntless; anybody who views the wreck and then watches those people going about their- business as if nothing had happened will gladly .give expression to the fact that Vd Frisco" is dauntless. For miles from Van Ness avenue to Market, and for miles again from Mar ket street south, the panorama benumbs the brain as it softens the heart All along Van Ness avenue and Fill more streets private residences are lift ed high ia the air, a plate glass front pnt In and presi, there is the "While House Store," the Toggery." "Roos Brothers the "City of Paris," the "Em porium," and nearly all the well known firms, besides, a large number of new firms that have drifted in since the fire. Don't say the earthquake your Frisco friends don't like that ; they just had a terrible lire, the same as wuumore, and Boston and Chicago and Seattle; the old '49 spirit is still strong in the breast of your California cousin. "Oh, yes, it was a bad fire, but we'll have a more beautiful city in a few years." I am no judge of such things, but it seems to me it will take a few years to clear that vast area, which looks like a cemetery; ,a chimney standing here, a fraction of a wall there, look ing from a diatmw like dilapidated gravestones; but San Francisco is not dead! Her best buildings are gone, ,but brick and stone and iron and steel are dead matter anyway; it's the spirit of the people which lives! The frame-, work dies, crumbles to dust, but the spirit lives on forever. Take one man or million, what is earthy returns to the earth, sooner or later, but the spir it cannot die; the stronger the belief ia this something called the spirit, the surer the Hereafter; this thing that says to man, no matter what happens, I will still live, still do things. You may punish, persecute, destroy the perish able frame, but the spirit survives and as it is with the individual, so it is with the whole human family; they who are conscious of the will power, of in telligence, of spirit, or whatever you choose to call it, will not give up, though everything else crumble away. This con scious determination survives all and a newer, better, body or city or country, will arise to be guided by that spirit which gives it life and power and beau ty. As the foggy, windy, winter weather approaches the necessity for warmer quarters, imperils those in charge to provide better shelter, so they are erect ing houses in Jefferson Park, Golden Gate and other squares, where tents have kept the homeless thousands. They are erecting little three room, one story shacks, from twenty-five to thirty in a row and other rows or lines, about ten or twelve feet back.

I went down into the former whole sale and retail district picking my way through mud and bricks and over piles of twisted iron; I tried to locate well known places, but succeeded in only a few instances. At the corner of Uwh and Battery I saw a long line of Hat cars being loaded with old bricks which are hauled somewhere to the outskirts, where they dump everything into hol lows and small streams, making tilled ground. " I gladly1 turned away from these scenes and looked up one of our Astoria boys; at the corner of Ellis aud Gough. I saw the polished brass sign of Dr. G, A. Woods, I went up and old 0u was as pleased to see me aa I was glad to meet him; he has a fine location and is doing well. There was so much suffering, so many cases during the earthquake excuse me, the fire that even- doctor got all the prac tice he wanted and so our young friend, having studied at Chicago University for several years, was called upon to dress wounds, to relieve the suffering and to do as much work in a few weeks as he would have ordinarily have hod is as many years. In looking along Van Ness avenue, every store having a flag with the firm name upon it (in lieu of a wooden sign) it looked for all the world like "The Trail" or "The Pike" during a world's fair. San Francisco is Dauntless! DEEDS. NOT WORDS. Astoria People Hav Absolute Proof of Cures. It's not words, but deeds, that prove true merit. The deeds of Doan's Kidney Pills, For Astoria kidney sufferers, Have made their reputation. Proof lies in the testimony of peo ple who have been cured to stay cured. G. H. Springer, expressman, of 1016 First St., Portland, Ore, says: "Ex posure to tough weather and the jar ring of my wagon brought on kidney trouble. My back ached almost con stantly and the action of the kidneys teemed weak and the passages of the secretions too frequent. Doan's Kidney Pills came to my notice and I got a box and began using them at once. The pain in mv back was soon relieved and tne kidney secretions became normal. Two boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills brought about this result" (From a statement made Feb. 28 th, 1903.) Cured to Stay Cored. On Jan. 12, 1906, Mr. Springmeyer confirmed the above statement and added: "Since the time referred to in my former testimony I have not bad a trace of kidney trouble. I have rec ommended Doan's Kidney Pills to many people and am always glads to do." Plenty more proof like this from As toria people. Call at Chas.
