WEATHER. Oregon. Washington. Idaho Fair. THE COAST OF OREGON. Among the Interesting districts of the Pacific slope at this particular time. Is the Oregon coast country, along the line of which some t the newest and biggest realttius In the way of transportation and manufac ture development are about to fructify, under the forceful touch of such men as James J. Hill and E. H. Harrlman. No one at all- familiar with! the possibilities of this section doubts any longer that immense things are to be done hereabout in the very near future and the attendant rush of the wise and experienced Into this neighborhood causes no surprise whatever. It is all the more significant on account of the long-drawn, lethargic conditions that have prevailed here for years past, and which are now being cast aside and the activities of all men engaged in close alignment with the rational expansion that is due under new and positive conditions. It receives added emphasis from the patent knowledge of all men, intimate with coast mat ters, of the abounding resources sus ceptible of treatment, and large re turns, swarming all along this neglect ed territory, and the situation, though primarily vague as to thecourse and quality of the unfoldment, is moral- ly sure to offer extraordinary and immensely valuable opportunities for investment and gratiflyng compensa tion along hundreds of avenues that have been blocked and lost sight of through Inanition. There was never an hour when more of real patience and circumspect deal ing were demanded in and about As toria than the present If the people of this city county shall proceed wisely and guardedly and place their prop erties in available shajje upon equities that shall yield something to the in vestor as well as to the seller, and forego the feverish end reactionary policies that beset other fortunate neighborhoods, the day for splendid realization is at hand for the whole country-side, and the commercial pre eminence of the port and county as sured beyond all failure and disappointment. NO WEAKLING TOLERATED. Theodore Roosevelt has made It ut terly Impossible for this country to tolerate a weakling In his place. We may not get this man back in the White House, but It is absolutely cer tain that whoever we elect will have the tang and tone of strength and knowledge and courage, and will be at least worthy of the name and office. The coming of Roosevelt upon the very antithesis precedent to his In vestiture, has lent added quality to the status of the present chief magis trate, and was wholly opportune since he came in on the breath and Impetus of war its;lf, and has given no evi dence of abatement since. For year? and years the country has needed a strong, self-reliant man at Washington. The people thought they had something of the sort when Air. Cleveland was doing his big and stout stunts during his first term, and It was not until, on this very hypothesis, they had re-elected him, they found Just how much a weakling he was. This THAT TIRED FEELING. Ever since the deliberate murder of the late Governor Steunenberg. of Idaho, and the rounding up of Moyer. Heywood and Pettibone as suspects in the case, the country has ben de luged with pleas and protests and programs, each and all having for their, texts, the utter Innocence of the; men, all hailing fiom the same source, the Western Federation of Miners. All men who have anything to do, even In th remotest fashion, with their Incar ceration and trial, have been subjected to the long-drawn vicious and blatant attacks of the labor press, an'ent the organized purpose of the authorities to railroad these men to the gallows: and the country Is getting mortally sick of it all. ! Primarily, the miners, themselves. have Interposed, prevented delayed, and denied these men the right of trial; by every known expedient of the practice of law they have kept the three from the bar of Justice: the law and the courts have been ready, time arid again, to try out the cases, and only the tactics of their friends have prevented the weighing of the Issues at bar. Just now their friends are working might and main to show that President Roosevelt Is using his great preroga tive to steer these men to an unmerited fate, and the country Is ringing with the charges and challenges of their over-zealous backers, to create the Impression that Moyer, Heywood and Pettibone are absolute' victims of hatred and a determined revenge. If they are as innocent as claimed, why In the name of Heaven have they not been tried and proven so long ago? It strikes us that, taking the declara tions of their Intimates for the truth, there should be no time lost in demon strating their freedom from the ter rible' charge lying against them! No man In this country wants them to suffer. They are either Innocent or guilty. Send them to the court, try them at the hands of their peers and give them the freedom they deserve. And do It without delay, else the peo ple will begin to think the friends who are doing the most of this strident howling are far too sure of their guilt to permit them to come within the purview of a court with any safety at all. Go to trial, or quit palavering! i lib uuuiuuit.t:u rnr v in iiit-iia . nen's BtiTicum Toilet Powder M i mntMimrunimm taw ttt MonnrN Cam. ffluvH Iy mminiu-M vrv lx oi nnni'a Tollt I Facslmll of Box. rounelUhl tilth hail. aiulMth ha ban in rov.fnm.nl Mitel numhf i.MJ. uurn twin I lin I rUnai Toilet I'uwdtru uml nn I Mil In cuufbruill)' lih the ti-rmn or III now In.. , P'tihllrw thero will tltl h nnYrv4ttl . till" : ml Imltatkp dwhM m hviiitf "nil gut i M Vnr.t.','' Hut no on ncnl b l'tl f ' 1 1 IMltlm fxviwa for cuunlfift'llln; a v.V"U tirl.

Several hundred motor cabs will shortly be put In service in New York, each equipped with an automatic ma. chine to record the distance traveled and the legal fare.

The first adventurer in an artic airship has never been heard from because he gave little attention to his line of communication. The late Silent Smith was worth $1,000,000 when Informed that he had Inherited $50,000,000 more. He con tinued to say nothing, and his biog raphers are unable to dlscouver that he sawed any wood.

Governor Hughes of New York, Is trying to make the Republican ma chine look like an automobile that has been arrested for violating the speed law. The full story of the watering of the Alton railroad will make thrilling literature. Facts already developed raise the gooseflesh In some quarters. The government's figures on , the winter wheat crop are a little better than at the same date last year, and that's good news to read about. Senator Penrose doesn't deny the dinner, mark you, nor that the wine was good, but he does deny that it affected him that way. .
