THE UNFALTERING NERVE.
Yesterday Portland Oregonlan,
with unfaltering serve, proceeds to
tell what 1 to be done with, and about,
tha Port of Columbia law. which goes
4Pto effect OH m lift Instant, and
Intimates that what of protest may be
In ezistance as coming , from the
Connty or Clatsop, will be quietly and
effectively disposed of by means of a
friendly suit at law, to test the con
stitutional status of the law, Instant,
ed, and prosecuted, In Portland, and
then goes on to says
"The suit is one of the greatest im
portance to Portland and Multnomah
county a well as the counties of
Columbia and Clatsop which would
share equally the benefits following
the operation of the proposed new
system for combinttig the towage and
pilotage services between Astoria and
the bar."
We deny that the big question in
volved will be decided in any such
fashion. The interests of this county
are not to be swept aside by any off
hand jugglery set up In Portland.
When the matter comes to bar It will
be found that we know something of
our rights down here and have men
quite capable of championing them,
and a predicate in court quite ample
to warrant our being there when the
time comes.
We deny that Clatsop county
will derive any share of any value
from the operation of the law; prim
arily, because the law is framed to put
this city and harbor on the shelf and
utterly exclude it from any of the al
leged benefits attaching to the law; it
is purely, solely, and wholly, a Port'
land proposition, and was framed with
a view, to giving absolute control of
the shipping interests of the Columbia
river, in their every conceivable phase,
to the metropolis, and any statement
to the contrary, is a bald and barren
lie. We use this term advisedly and
apply it because of its sane and sen
sible application in the premise. The
bin was never devised with a view to
conferring the remotest advantage on
this port, but was concocted of Port
land, in Portland, for Portland, and
has no other aim or agency than the
investiture of Portland with the last
and best prerogative for the holding
of the commerce sent to tills river
from the wide world; and when our
day dawns in court, it will show, if
necessary, Just how certain this in
tent is. But we 'do not believe the
Issue will go to a point where any
thing but the rank unconstitutionality
of the law will be needed; and that It
la rankly defective in this quality, is
known at Portland as well as It is
here. ' ,
And we beg to suggest to the Ore
gonlan that it may take what of com
fort it may from the conclusion that
Portland has saving recourse to the
law of the Initiative In the event that
it Is ousted from the supreme court
because of the unconstitutionality of
the edict, for that electoral function
can hardly supply the status the
supreme court shall declared does not
exist within the terms of the law.
Oh, no, me Port of Columbia law
will be heard from In very conspic
uous style, before the Oregonlan ceases
to sound its virtues, and the test will
not come from the "mere friendly suit"
that Is to be set up in the "house of
its friends" up the two rivers!
drawn, and are whelmed with a mu
tual fear of whnt of truth the other
will tell when confronted with the
law. It Is a pitiful sttiht, and there
Is a wealth of sardonic humor In it
all for those who delight to study the
schemes and processes of reprisal,
These men were devoted pals nm
ardent champions but a short while
since, and now they are crouching and
wArdtng and fending against the fear
ful blowj each Is qualified to deliver
the other; and the Paetrto world look
on and smilingly awnlts the develop
nients that are certain to follow the
rupture. .
Where is the Pythian magnanimity
and forbearance that once hallowed
this dear and profound trtendshlpT
la swallowed in the maw of unreason'
Ing fear, and the only sentiment that
la left takes on the color of dread, de
testation and despair, as the days and
hours shift and the course of law
runs Its rugged and remorseless way,
and these men seek its every crevice
and cranny that promises an atom of
extenuation or escape, and this quite
independent of each other. " -

Readily YUIJ id Soothing, Healing
Treatment of Hy-o-mel.
Bronchial troubles are purely local.
They cannot be helped by stomach
dosing. They are caused by irritation
in the air passages and can be relieved
and cured by medicated air alone. In
this lies the secret of the great sue
cess of Hy-o-mei in the treatment of
bronchial troubles
The Hy-omei medication, laden with
nature's remedies, is breathed through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit, reaching every part
of the bronchial tuijes and killing at
once the disease germs. It allays all
Irritation and heals the inflammation
of the mucous membrane with aston
Ishlng rapidity.
Treatment with sprays, douches and
atomizers In bronchlai troubles is con
demned by the best physicians, as they
cause further irritation.
The first breath of Hy-o-mel's medl
cated air seems to soothe the inflam
mation, stop the cough, and thus re
lief soon becomes permanent and 1
cure results.
Hy-o-mel has made many remark
able ' cures In the worst and most
chronic forms of bronchial troubles
and Is sold by T. F. Laurln with the
same guarantee as he gives when
Hy-o-mel is purchased for catarrh,
that Is, to refund the money In case
the remedy does not give satisfaction.
The complete outfit costs but $1.00.
Kidney complaint kills mora people
than any other disease. This is due to
