'4 Tha ordinary American is getting heartily sick of the long-drawn program of placating, and backing-and-filling, on the score of Japanese likes and dislike, and would be giad to see the silly tem porizing put an end to. For the past 10 months or more the press 01 the country baa been slopping over with stuff in relation to what we can do, or say, or plan, and what we cannot do, say or plan, with, or without, the ap proval of Japan. What are we coming to, anyway, when we have to regulate our public conduct to tally with the moods of Japan, or any other country! We believe in meeting the requirements of ordinary official life and living up to such standards of intercourse as cus tomarily prevail between nations; but the game ia being played to a frazzle and the people are worn out with the palaver in vogue; and would like to see some wholesome expression of independ ence on the part of the government at Washington, and we know of no bet ter day than this to say this very thing. If it has come to pass that this govern ment cannot order its entire naval equip ment from one coast to another of the home country without ruffling the plum age of Japan, we had better eonfesa our selves whipped in advanoe and do what truckline we have to on some tangible ground. As it is, we are making the country the laughing stock of people abroad and playing with the popular temper just a shade too far. Japan is entitled to just so much respect and she should have it, but at no sacrifice to the public pride of our people. a ' PUBLICITY FOR ASTORIA. Since Secretary John H. Whyte has been in charge of the Chamber of Com merce of this city and county, there has come to us a much wider intimacy with the world abroad and Astoria and old Clatsop are farther and better known than ever before in history. This is( not apparent to the citizen who makes no inquiries along this line and shows no interest in the development, but to those in touch with the work he is do ing and the correspondence he i con ducting it is a matter of gratifying knowledge and accurate certainty. For the time he has been in charge of the Chamber of Commerce he has gotten in touch with many an industry and many a locality that never knew us before, and what ia better yet, they know us honestly and intelligently, and the result will manifest itself shortly in an access of meaningful inquiry and purposeful immigration, all of which will be prac tical demonstration of the careful and conscientious work he and his colleagues tit the Chamber have done. The big and valuable things of commerce and civic exnanaion are not achieved in hours; it takes months and years to bring realization alone certain lines to community that has occupied a negative position in the world of affairs, and we believe, from what has been done, that Astoria, is to realize even sooner than usual, upon the good work instituted here during the past few months by her Chamber of Commerce and its energetic matter-spirit. It is to be hoped that the A. A C. railway officials may be able to meet the popular desire here for a general order to stop all trains in its service at the foot of Eleventh street in this city, both ways, and all the time. It is said to I in direct contradiction to the terms of the right-of-way deeds secured by it, originally, for certain properties along the line of the road in that part of the city lying eat of the 0.

So I we will all do our beat, today, to show just how aincera and dutiful w are and av our cHenhfp from the tiiscrctiu of apathy; we will be patient with the noise and confusion and the recklessness; we will withhold our scoldings and grouchings and other disagreeable mani festation, and count ourselves true Americana, at sundown; models for the small-fry who shall I responsible for our program of patience throughout the day. There is nothing in all our history that means as much to us a all this day stands for and the man who has ouiirvwn tha sentiment would better recall it and accentuate it vividly and save his reputation at least. THAT HEW CHEMICAL ENGINE. , We believe the city fathers exhibited Die flra-ightir equipment of the city So its Richard rst again, for CrokerV byv on more chemical engine, because Orby Saturday won the Irish Derby they are considered the world over aa the readiest and most reliable preventive agency in modern use wnere nre are concerned; and the principle of success ful fire-Hghting today lie la tha science of prevention, nof only of the incipient blaze but of the spread of fire, the es sential duties of the chemical engine. The more of these engines a community has the fewer kwsea and casualties go to its record on the score of fire. Chief Campbell, of the Portland de partment, once told the writer, that his main reliance t all times, were the numerous and fine chemicals with which that department it furnished, and Port land is still buying them; and this is the experience all over the country. At that time Chief Campbell made the flat tering atatement that the enm of losses actually prevented by eheuiical engine during the year previous and rationally computed, out-totalled the real and re corded losses sustained by the city in fires that got away from the initial work of the chemicals. He could not say milch more in their behalf, and such testimony goes a long way as an en dorsement of the policy now being pur sued by the council and department here. 0 S0 EDITORIAL SALAD. ca S) S NEW YOKK, July S.-A. Russell Peabody and Daniel O'Reilly, attorneys for Hary K. Thaw, have served on Act ing District Attorney Smyth notice of withdrawal of the motion recently made in the supreme court for an order direct ing District Attorney Jerome to thow cause whv he should not set the law's second trial for tha Ootober term of court. Thaw decided that the district attorney intends to act fairly by him in the matter of bringing him to trial as soon a possible and therefore direct ed his lawyers to withdraw the motion which will lie set for argument tomorrow.

It will not do to disparage the Fourth ot July, as some people seem disposed to do; H is an anniversary too deeply cliarceil with national sitrnificance and honor to be deprecated on the score of public convenience or private indiffer ence, and too conspicuous ever to lose its hold on the people who owe so much to the primal glory of its establishment. We mav outsrrow the neculiar fascina tions that thrilled u in the earlier of our lives, but ita real meaninz and vital principle may never be abated one jot from the volume and torce tnat in voked its place in the national calendar; and as honest Americans we cannot permit ourselves to inchige too great HE same problem is presenting itself for folution in Europe as in America. It is the question which has been developed under what I mav call Christian civilization. IT IS THE PARA MOUNT ISSUE. You may call it socialism if you please. It ia how to distribute in proper proportions the result of labor and the employment of capital. In other words, can Christian civilization CONTROL ITS OWN SUCCESS I In America we call It the trust question. In France, at the present moment, it manifests itself as the right of government employees to combine, and we sec a socialistic premier fighting the extension to government servants of the doctrines he has always preached. In England the problem is rather simpler, as the English have always managed to keep their government practically free from COMMERCIAL INFLUENCES, but there, too, we have an independent lator party, led by Mr. Keir Hardie, which ia frankly socialistic. Tha iritiiation in Ewrland reminds me very much of the Populist , w - ' - ' 1 situation in Ameriea a few years ago. Many people thought that the Populists would never exert any influence east of the Mississippi, but they were mietalien. I should not be surprised to see the labor or socialistic ekmen oapture the Liberal party in England. In this event thete will probably be a, REALIGNMENT of political parties ana the discovery of new leaders. T rln not think there is anv ereat increase m the strengtn 01 ine Avnw-ETi n.inHntifi mrtv in Europe. The serious matter is that more is being done to promote socialism BY THOSE WHO DE NOUNCE SOCIALISM than by all the avowed bociaiists. A spirit of socialism is fostered by the indiscriminate cry ior w regulation of corporations. I believe that the Btate has the ngtit to regulate, if necessary, the corporations whicli control puDiio nuui, and on this ground Roosevelt's rate bill is perfectly sound in principle, but to extend this doctrine TO ALL CORPORATIONS INDIS CRIMINATELY is not only unwise, but dangerous. Another very serious question in America at the present time Is the loss of public confidence in the JUDICIARY. Look'at the kPw kins case. Was there ever such a travesty of Justice t 'Instead of being tried on the facts of the case he was invited to writea letter setting forth HIS view of the facts, and then by a majorityof one a dedalom is rendered that the facts submitted! do not SUCH DECI8I0N8 HAVE CAUSED THB.
