THE VANISHED CULT.
When this edition of the Morning
Astorian shall reach the hands of its
thousands of subscribers this morning,
the law of Oregon, to that end made
and passed, will have operated to the
utter exclusion of the gambler and
from the four counties of the Fifth
Judicial District, to-wit, Clackamas,
Multnomah, Columbia and Clatsop; and
none of these counties will be any the
worse for the order made by District
Attorney Hedges but will, each, and all,
be practically and largely benentted.
For some days past there has been
noticed on the streets of Astoria, fur.
niture vans, loaded with odd-looking, yet
handsome parcels of paraphernalia in
cident to the gaming cult, passing either
to the store-rooms of its local owners, to
the warehouses of the city for indefinite
storage, or to the rail and steamer decks
and stations, for shipment to points
more or less remote, but perhaps more
amenable to the "sport" and sports, than
this bailiwick.
The gamblers, big, and little, the in
Vligenous fry that flocks about the vax
ious and sundry "banks" and games, are
yielding up their domiciles and rooms
nd habitates, and one by one, and in
groups, are wending their ways to other
and more auspicious climes; but they
are all jolly, friendly to Astoria, where
they have had a long and a good season
of indulgence, and probably have made
a fair earnings on the varied stakes
with which they opened up her.
Astoria cheerfully relinquishes her old
8nd famous title of a "wide-open town
and will make the best of the new re
gime that places her on a par with every
other city in the di-trict. She has no
kick coming; she is glad of the exemp
tion from the questionable, even unen
viable notoriety, that has been hers for
many a long day; and her municipal
guardians will see to it that all her
civic bills are paid promptly and fully,
witn the important source of revenue
thus cut out.
From this time forth this city will
nave other and better qualities to make
her known and liked throughout the
land and he will rely upon the clean
and helpful thing- she pos-esses to
emphasize her claim to popular notice
and appreciation. Astoria's future is
made all the brighter for the embargo
against gambling and she and her peo
ple are going to make the most and the
I'e.-t of that future.
Keep Astoria in your mii.d and in
your eye; it will pay you!

GREATEST AND BEST!
The thirteenth annual Kegatta at As
toria September 2,3 and 4, i007, is loom
ing up r-plendidly, and promises to b
the bigge-d, best and most noteworthy,
in the fine reconl that tells of every in
teresting events foregone. The sum de
voted to the festival this year is larger
than ever, was given with more freedom
and generousity than usual, and the
subscribing field covers a wider range
than ever, and the revenue is being
placed upon more and finer lines of en
tertainment than have been noted for
years.
Among the star attractions is the
great Scandinavian Sacngerfest, a treat
in music, for which every city in the
country is a bidder, year after year and
which of itself is enough to warrant the
coming of hosts of people from abroad.
The magnificent program, the great
choroues, the noted soloists, the thou
sands of affiliates that flock to the
Immense feast each year two or three
thousand strong, make this feature one
of transcendent moment and supreme
allurement.
The races, games, sports, parades, the
shore ami murine displays, U the car
dinul clement of the Repstta, are to I
made upon larger Um! of people mid
their mot fetchine event, in nil tli
line of athletic end professional enter
tainment and aimiscim'tit, end it is cv
tvti.1 some world's record will le
made in number of engagement pro
vided for. The quality of everything is
to he raised above U previous stand
ards mul sheer enjoyment Is to le the
kev-note of the festival this tall.
The Orecon Press Association U to
bo in session her and hereabout at the
time, and these bright and jolly people
alwav contribute immensely to what of
joy and inteivst is going on around them,
and thev will not fail us this season. So
looking at the approaching Regatta
from any standpoint of known features,
it may be safely counted upon as a big
improvement over all the good things
that have gone to the jolly history of
this peculiarly Astorian scheme of
pleasure
AS IMMENSE INCONVENIENCE.
If so be the telegraphers' strike shall
become anywhere near universal in this
land of our, there will be a measure of
inconvenient wrought that will go far
to demonstrate to mankind just what a
vast utility the news and business wire
of the country represent. It i to bt
hoped that however far the strike shall
go, the news keys will be kept in opera
tion, for if the Associated Tress it
gagged and the other lesser1 agencies
that make news-gathering and dissemi
nating their daily and hourly business,
as well, there will be one vivid chance
given to the reading world to rightly ap
preciate its morning and evening papers.
The fact that the telegraphers of this
country are of a high order of intelli
gence and imbued with a sense of their
responsibility to the business element of
the nation is a saving phase of the situa
tion and makes it amenable to overtures
and compromise and helpful negotia
tions not alwavs favorabtv received by
the general run of striking tradesmen,
and the serious limit will be correspond
ingly abridged. And again, the pressure
that will be brought upon both sides of
this big controversy will be immensely
influential and will represent the best
brains of the land as well as most of
its wealth, and must be reckoned as one
of the saving factors in the trouble. We
shall be glad to report the early end of
the strike and the entire satisfaction of
both parties to it, for the good and com
fort of the millions who are not parties
to it, but sufferers from it in mvriads
of different ways.
