The community that does not reserve
to itself the right to collectively assert
ita own programs and acta, and to free
dom from such handicap, is not worthy
the name of a town or city, since its
motives, efforts and bargains for pro
gress, are but the motives, efforts and
bargains of its master, whatsoever his
influence, prestige and presumptive right
to away and say.
The trouble 'with such conditions is,
invariably, that the friendly allegiance
of a people once given to some wise
and friendly man or family, is latex
abused and turned to grossly selfish
ends, the man or men honored with such
confidence rarely remaining loyal and
square is their dealings; but gradually,
yet surely, swinging the trust from the
level line of disinterestedness to down
right and supercilious dominance of the
coarsest and most ungrateful kind.
There is nothing invidious in this
conclusion. It is simply a warning note,
sounded for the good of Astoria and all
other towns wherein it may be read. It
is an evil that should be known and
guarded against all the time, here, and
everywhere, if there is the slightest
manifestation of its becoming operative.
SAFETY OF THE ARMADA.
All America is alive with quivering
interest in regard to the safety of the
treat fleet now en route from the At
lantic to the Pacific; and the slightest
intimation oJ 'Knger to men or vessels
rouses that iu.vrest to something ab
normal The word just sent Up from
Rio Janeiro, that there is a iwell de
veloped plot to dynamite one or more of
the fine ships, unearthed in Paris and
attributed to anarchistic agencies, ia
startling upon tie face of it, and the
country ia slow to credit it; yat, remote
as the possibility seems there is iusti
fication for the deepest feeling of un
easiness. No man may say where the
ravening, , maniacal tendencies of the
murderous brood of that cult will find
expression next, and exempt as the
United States has been from their
wretched acts, there is no such thing
m immunity; nor is it at all beyond
the rabid purview of these degenerates
to begin operations nght there
It is to be hoped the story may prove
a canard: but if it does not, and the
police of . our great and friendly neigh
bor in the south, can reach the indl
vidual scruffs of the perverts set on to
this horrible .task, their immediate and
unquestioned 'death will add immensely
to the obligation we shall be under for
all time to come. '

A RECORD BREAKER.
th
The merits of Hyomei the treatment
that cures catarrh without stomach dos
ing, its popularity and growth, are
unique in the annals of medicine. So
pronounced is the relief and cure fol
lowing the use of this treatment that
it has been publicly recommended by
leading druggists and physician in
nearly every State and town in the
country, with the result that last year's
sales were larger than ever.
The fact that Hyomei is so simple and
complete, and that it cures by breathing
medicated air and not taking drugs into
the stomach, no doubt has helped to
create this wide-spread and rapidly in
creasing army of friends.
The iwar in which it has been sold by
T. F. Laurin has undoubtedly aided
greatly its introduction in Astoria. He
is such a firm believer in the power of
Hyomei to cure all catarrhal troubles,
that he urges people to use it with the
understanding that the cost will be re
funded to anyone who is not benefitted
by the treatment. Yon do not risk a
cent in testing the healing virtues of
Hvomei, for T. A. Laurin takes all the
chances of its giving satisfaction and
leaves you to be the judge.
