Everywhere, yesterday, there was genuine and enthusiastic approval of M5r. WingatKa proposition to perfect the legal status of the Port of Astoria tad" it is conceded to be one of tie best and most essential things the Chamber of Commerce has yet stood for. The general opinion seems to be that the work can be devised and earned through successfully, avoiding all the blunders and weaknesses that have be set the Port of Portland; that it can be made a sound base for the prosecu tion of all marine improvement and pro gress we are committed to and that it will place the city and port beyond the interference of ambitions that have an tiumnixed and embarrassed us in the 0- - past and put us on a dead level of op portunity with every other maritime place on the coast. That A. M. Smith has been placed on the) committee is taken to mean that hi best thought and energy will be gW- en us in the legal and adequate pre paraiion of the measure that is to be submitted and that we will have little to fear from successful gerrymandering of the propsition if it has an enemy dis posed that way; and the life-long ex nerience and ' intimate knowledge of James W Welch the third committee man, will be invaluable in the work of his colleagues. Altogether, the idea as very popular and, with timely concep tion and deliberate preparation, the en terprise can, and will, be wrought out with gratifying success. HOME-BRAINS, H0ME-HAHD3. Astoria has made up its mind to tackle it own future and wring its own successes from the Box of Pan' ' dora by clever and opportune use of her own brains and hands; at least, in all the initial steps requisite. There are number of strong cards ready for the playing; several already being played and more still Jn tie deck; and, so far, the deal looks assuring for some very pronounced winnings in 1908. ';. We have cfear-cut notions of what we iwant and some not unclever ideas of how to go about achieving it; our only- trouble in the past being, that we were satisfied to hold what was deemed to be the cardinal prestige of location and natural equipment, and that it was the business of the. outsider to come in and exploit things for his own and our, mutual, advantage: Now, we think dif f erently. We will start our own mills, set np our own pori, dig for our own oil reduce our own ores, prepare our own clays, build our own docks, charter our own ships, strive for our own com' merce, and, generally, "do those things we have left undone." At all events we play our string; bring our available and dependable agencies up to a point of efficiency and demonstrable value, that will warrant the outsider in coming to our assist ance and perfecting the processes of development and realization: And no place on earth can do more than that, unless she be favored more abundantly than Astoria, which is hardly possible.

The citiwn knows, to the miuu- test particular, just how he has been swindled, who did it. the measure, method and monstrosity of it all: And the result is simply a supreme and sil ent contempt, ineffective because of his own supreme and stupid complicity in the huge outlawry. It is very pitiful and yet wholly logical Mavbe, some day, he will rise to the demand of the occasion and assert him self and his right to defense from such things; at present the short of the stature of a citisenehip that exerts so prideful a stand; he has been systems tically and brazenly robbed and haa ac tually chummed with the thieves; shut his eyes and threw up his hands while they went through him, then banqueted his disposers and ranged up for their defense with an order sublimely childish and entirely adequate so far as the salvation of. the scoundrels was con cerned. No element of the corporate life of the nation displays such astounding and illimitable lines of transgression as do the those combinations responsible for the looting of the lands and forests of America; they excel even the rail ways in their rapacity and capacity for accumulating what does not belong to them; their perversion of the public domain, the audacity of their systems, the fearful successes, and their cool and contemptuous resistance to the retri butive end of the law they have trodden upon all the way to their venal achieve ments, is one of the criminal marvels of the age and its paramount disgrace, and must be so dealt with in all his tories of the time to come.

ClUCAtiO. Jan. 21.-A bill etUcklug the solvency of the Provident Annuity life Association and asking for the ap pointment of a receiver was filed yes terday by Mrs. Belle IX Green, Bloom ingtou, 111, widow of a director.

FOOTBALL RULES DISCUSSED. NEW YORK. Jan. 21. The forward pass and many other much discussed points of the football rules will be dis cussed and possibly modified at a meet in of the football rules committee which will be held in New York on Friday and Saturday. There has been so much discussion and criticism of the forward pass that it is probable that most of the time of the committee will be taken up in discussing this feature of the rule. The Intercollegiate Asso ciation haa already advocated a modifi cation of the rule and several members of the old committee are "said to favor such modification. The new committee consists of seven members elected by the Intercollegiate Association . in ad dition to the seven members of the old committee. The members are Prof. L. M.
