UP TO ASTORIA, STRICTLY! ' Mr. William H. Garland, of . New York City, has put it up to the people of Astoria, strictly and unequivocally, whether they want the steamship lines to Alaska and to the Orient which he and his associates propose to establish at come point on the Pacific Coast dur ing the coming year. His statement on the first page ' of this issue leaves this people nothing to do but to tell him, sometime during today, whether or not they want the enterprise here. He de parts tonight, and when he goes away he will have tie certain knowledge that Astoria fe, or- is not, to be, the home terminus of that big venture; and there can be no doubt that it will be an un qualified affirmative on the part of our people. Anvthine else would put us beyond the pale of commercial consideration for all time to come and in all sections of the country. It is the greatest offering ever made to this people an! it has created an immense and grateful im pression. There can be no doubt of the timely fulfillment of thecontract, by all concerned, to the abounding benefit and access of the CSty-by-the-Sea. vf);na 4h; naner can sar, eaeer as it is to accentuate and expedite every mm! ihina that comes our way, can present the proposition in more promis Ing and assured form than Mr. Garland has already put it in his published dec laration. They am as free and clar as the air, and hold no scintilla of ambiguity nor double-dealing; nothing can be straighter or honester than the terms he uses; and unmitigated stupid ity alone must account (for any miscon ception of the program, or of Astoria's part in it It is, beyond all human doubt, strict ly up to Astoria! THE BUCK INJUNCTION. Tie injunction granted the Buck Stove k Range Company, in the district court of the District of Columbia, on Tuesday kst, as against the boycott prevailing against that concern at the instance and with the knowledge of the American Federation of Labor, will be the more valuable in the issue than in the attack; since the merit of the controversy and the right at stake, will never be ad justed short of the supreme court of the land; And that adjustment, being final and unassailable;' will fix, pre enrptoriry, and perpetually, the right, or the non-right of organized labor to in stitute and maintain a deliberate boy cott; or else it will impose limitations in this relation that will mimlfy the method and it effect; or, it will justify it in whole, and1 forever end the con troversy that has disturbed and har rassed mankind for more than a cen tury, thus doing the whole world a service, whichever way the decision may fall ' lift 2 La Mi 0 Ladies' Tailored Suits and Coats Every garment in our entire stock will go in this sale.

The carefully drawn and authentic table of distances from the common point for wheat, in the Columbia basin, .'published! in these columns yes terday morning, tells the story of As toria's perfect adaptation to the de mands of the transportation end of the uge business over every other port on the upper coast, and are simply invin cible as indicating the basis of the claims we have always' made in her behalf. , That this business is on the verge of a revolution in its transportation phase, no one, who has watched events here about for the past year, has any sort of doubt. Astoria is coming into hep own every objection anJ obstacle that the friends of the Sound and Port land can impose. The gist of the table lies in the nab demonstration that, Astoria, being from 100 to 180 miles nearer the sea itself, is but a fraction over 30 miles farther from the present shipping points of the Inland Empire than any of the Sound ports, and is, in all other respects, shelter, scope, range and contiguity, the peer of the best of them. " The question will, sooner, or later, resolve itself into the simple proposi tion of the great trade going to its ex port centers over the quickest, shortest am! most feasible route, the one that costs the least in dollars and cents, with Portland figuring immensely as one of the controlling (actors, as she has al ways been. " It will pay any man to carefully study the table and to realize what there is in it for the men and capital that have the last word in the direction and mam tenance of the export business. BY WAY OP ECONOMY. Aside from the element of competition with the Ifree white labor here, which may cut more or less of a figure in the subsequent discussion of the plan, the determination of Police Judge Anderson and Police Chief Gammal, to utilize the potty! ofminals of the cibyj on fee street twork Of the municipality, is a wise step, both as a repressive measure and an element of economy. If there is anything on the earth that will evoke the horror, fear and deadly dread of a macque, or a barroom loafer, or a low-range thief, it is manual labor in the open among decent people. The reproach attaching to real work, with this gentry,' is too deep and bitter for the comprehension of the ordinary de cent man; it is annihilative of the first principles of the macquereaux and the booze-bum, and will do more, in less time, to rid the city of their presence and vicious influence. Passed Examination Successfully James Donahue, New Britain, Conn., writes; "I tried several kidney remedies, and was treated by our best physicians for diabetes, but did not improve until I took Foley's Kidney Cure. After the second bottle I showed improvement, and five bottles cured me completely. I have since passed a rigid examination for life insurance." Foley's Kidney Curs cures back-ache and all forms of kidney and bladder trouble. Sold by T. F. Laurin. Owl Drug Store. ' WILL WELCOME OUR FLEET LIMA, Peru., Dec. 18.

Danger in Asking Advice. When you have a cough or cold do not ask some one what is good for it, as there is danger in taking some un known preparation.

"When using the Ifyomci treatment, the air you breathe is like that on the mountains high above sea level where the pine woods fill the air with aromatic healing that gives health and strength to those suffering from diseases of the respiratory organs. Breathed through the neat pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit, the healing balsams of Hyomei reach the most remote air cells of the throat, nose and lungs, destroy ing all catarrhal germs and giving quick relief and cure. . Hyomei has performed almost miracu lous cures of catarrh, often restoring health in chronic cases that had given up all hope of recovery. Its best action is at the start o If the diseases, when the breath is becoming offensive and when discharges from the nose, drop pings in the throat and frequent sneez ing or spasmodic coughing begin to make life a burden. At the first symp tom of catarrhal trouble, use Hyomei and see how quickly you get relief and cure. The complete outfit costs but 1.00 and is- soldi by T. F. Laurin, under guar antes to refund the money if it does not give satisfaction. South Dakota, with its rich silver mines, bonanza farms, iwide ranges and strange natural formations, is a verit able wonderland. At Mound City, in the home of Mrs. E. D. Clapp, a wonderful case of healing has lately occurred. Her son seemed near death with lung and throat trouble. "Exhausting coughing spells occurred every five minutes," writes Mrs. Clapp, "when I began giving Dr. King's New Discovery, the great medicine, that saved his life and completely cured him."
