The Astorlan offers Its plensnntext greeting to Henry S. McOownn, the newly elected joint-senator from Pa cific and Wahkiakum couutles. In the sister state on the north. An ac quaintance with Mr. McClowan of long years standing must stand sponsor for the real regard entertained for him In this office, though the fact of his genuine democracy has. In n measure, mitigated against our direct support of his candidacy, we are none the lca pleased to congratulate him and his constltutency uopn the extraordinary and handsome verdict rendered In his esse by his Republican as well as Democratic friends. No man's Inter ests will suffer at Olympla with H. S. McGowan there to safeguard them. o SEA CABLES. IN THE CITY THEATERS. One of the highest salaried com panies appearing In melodrama will be seen In "As Told In the Hills, which will play an) engagement at the Astoria theater on Nov. 10, 1906. The play I one that depends on the Individual merits of the members of the cast rather than on scenic effects and Bltuatlons that In real life are Im probable or Impossible and the ex cellent acting of the several members of the company meets with deserved appreciation. THE MACK SWAIN THEATER CO. 'The Senator's Daughter" Is a drama of more than ordinary merit, with n plot at once concise and consistent. and well wrought out. The Incidents are natural and exciting the action never strained or forced, yet rising at times to a point of dramatic Intensi ty, while the comedy situations ore mort laughable and serve to brighten the more serious tone of the story. ( Alf Ijiyne as "Lord Harry Beresford' showed his versatility and gave a de lightful performance of a light-comedy role: Pert Frank as the "Mar- LETTER OF INTEREST. OREGON'S FISHERIES. The time has come for careful re view of the fishing interests of the state of Oregon. They are entitled to It, and to the establishment of an of flclal regimen and oversight that shall allay the existing disagreements and disturbances and make for the conser vation of the Industry In every con ceivable way. There are men In the state who have hundreds of thousands of dollars In vested In the enterprise, and other men, numbering into the thousands, who have just as definite an Interest since It Is their trade, livelihood and sole reliance. These men, the canners, packers, and fishermen, must have a voice In the reorganization, equipment and conduct of the fisheries, and their experience must be devoted to safe and profitable growth and maintenance of the businewi. - It has been held that these men cannot unite upon any general plan cannot unite upon any general planfor the amalgamation and perpetuity of the business, but we doubt If this is so. They have had to contend with what they disapproved In the conduct of the department, from the outside, and from the negative stand of men whose conclusions were, or might be, Ignored by the officials in charge; a condition prejudicial to their Influence and ore susceptible of Instant and radical relief, If they are merged In the councils that govern. We believe that the State Commls elon should be augmented by the ap pointment of at least five practical cannerymen and two fishermen from the organized unions In the business; these, with the governor, secretary of state, state treasurer and master fish warden, to constitute the court of last resort in all matters pertaining to the Industry and the craft. And we are of the opinion that the department should be divided, under clear and ex plicit rulings, Into two branches with distinct functions: One for the propa gation of the fish; the other for the protection and policing of the indus try. There must be some technical In telligence at the head of the depart ment, and the sooner the better. With out disparagement of the work already attempted and accomplished, or of those responsible for It, and for the tacit failures that are complained of, we Insist that the Industry is big enough and valuable enough to war rant the procedure here outlined, or something equivalent to it. There muRt be a divorce of the hatcheries and the police-patrol. The former must be placed In the hands of finh culturists of recognized ability and their duties so defined as to avoid all touch with the people charged with the enforcement of the fishing laws; to attain to this end, the most exact ing care must be used in the setting ud of the staff and the demarcation of Its actions under the law. And surely the broad field of the practical workers in fish, the packers and catch ers. if ample to furnish highly trained and reliable recruits for this depart ment. The policing is absolutely In the hands of the state, and is a state mat ter, flrflt and last. It Is a vital es sential and should be so organized as to avoid all other responsibilities and be left free to enforce the letter of the law, amenable in all things to the governing commission that appoints the patroling agents. There Is imperative need for the re vamping of the entire system and the Lying alonsr the beds of ccean are about two hundred and twenty-five thousand miles of submarine tele- grapn caoica. xuore innn mm vi im"; ,.,. i .1, t A Immense mileage Is British and ev-j - . . !

At the national encampment of the j vrtr, v.... c cin.,., Grand Army of the Republic at Mln- nnw 'h'mi' ' ,!r()flawftv neapolls this year a proposition to; ' be set aside the last Sunday m May y , Memorial Day will be considered. It c o nnchor KO Is claimed by many that the change . , Is demanded In view of the manner in which the real purpose of Me morial Day has been obscured. When the holiday falls upon a week day It Is almost exclusively given over to sports and pleasure and scarcely a thoueht Is given to the heroes of the Civil War, living or dead. To estab lish a Sunday for the annual observ ance would tend to do away with the ..nnnr. manner of celebration. "The day would, it Is claimed, be given over more carticularly to the old soldiers and to those who are sincerely moved to take the time to honor the men who fought to preserve their country. Many of the games and pastimes which are now indulged in would ne cessarily have to be abandoned. that It may be firmly braced agnlns every gale. The wind pressure on ac count of the structure's great altitude will be tremendous, and for this rea son the building is to be literally tied to its foundation by an ingenuous ar rangement of steel ros. They will be three and a half Inches In diameter and descend nearly fifty feet Into the concrete which forms the caissons, resting on solid rock, 85 feet below the curb. "ALL ABOARD" NOW IN TIME. WANT THEIR CARS. "All Aboard" Is now official. The Pennsylvania Railroad company has issued an order that all brakemen, Pullman conductors ana por.ers u, , n call out these two words In a rtlstlnot voice, exactly two minutes before the Large Railroads Will Raise Per Diem for Cart. CHICAGO, Nov. 8. A meeting of the big central and western railroads which own most of the freight cars of the country, will be held In Chicago today for the purpose of raising the per diem now charged by thern for the use of freight curs when on the rails of roads other than their owners. The Property Owner In Astoria, Now Abroad, 8pks for Devetoprent. A well-informed gentleman of the East, who owns considerable property In and about Astoria. In writing to a friend here lately, said: "What you Aslorluns ned I a rond up to the l"p of some f your hills, to get a good class of residences start ed In more sightly localities. Astoria has been almost the only city In the country without local feeders and without electric or cnblP, roads to Its higher ground." The above is In line with what the Astorlnn said some time ago, when It suggested the wisdom of the street railway being extended to tha higher portions of the city and Its suburbs. In the opinion of many a street rnll way from the Columbia river to Young's Pay. over the summit, would greatly accelerate the building of homes, enlarge the city and Increase the earnings of the street car ays tern. They think some transportation company should have faith enough In the growth of the city to Invest aome capital of lis own and develop the business, rather than rely upon the years and the normal growth to pre sent a ready-paying field for such an Investment. It is the province of transportation lines to create new suburbs and popularize them by pro jecting their lines into them. I mi.. uo fr-nm :, tn KO cents, and may be made "5 cents.

Conrtland Penfield, of New York, formerly United States minister to Egypt, writer of books and magazine articles on forelg.n travel and diplomacy, has Just been notified by the French government of his pro motion to be an officer of the Legion of Honor. Mr. Penfield was created a chevalier of the order on New Year's Pay, 1905. Six years ago Mr. Pen field won the gold medal of tne rrenon Academy. He has also received nu merous other European decorations, such as the Grand Cross of the Turk ish Order of Medjldleh; Grand Com mander of the (Egyptian) Degree of Order of Osmanich; the Takova CrosH of Servia, and the Grand Cross of St. Catherine, of cars to their owners. . ALWAYS WAS SICK. When a man says he Is always sick, troubled with a cough that lasted all wlnter what would you think If he should sayhe never was sick since uslne Ballard's Horehound Syrup. Such a man exists; Mr. J. C. Clark, Denver. Colorado, writes: "For years I was troubled with a severe cough that would last all winter. This cough left me In a miserable condition. tried Ballard's Horehound Syrup and have not had a sick day since. That s what It did for me."

Hart's Drug Store The birth rate in Berlin declined from 46 per 1,000 In 1876 to 27 In 1906. The only Inference we can draw from this Is that a great many Ger mans accumulated enough wealth dur lng that period to place them In the "smart set" ranks. Creates Sensation In rtew Orleans U T. Cooper, the young philan thropist, who, with his strange new medicine has been exciting much attention from newspapers all over the country, now has New Orleans In a storm of enthusiasm ovr his remarkable work.
