EXIT, THAW! The American reading world will draw a long breach of intense relief with the knowledee that Harry K. Thaw and his wife Evelyn are to withdraw from the center of the "first page" of the press. For over a year scarcely an edition of the papers of the nation has been issued minus a story, long, or short, of these young people. The history of the case is as minutely known, so far as common publicity is concerned, in every home in the country as it is in the courts that have handled it; and it has not done any particular good that we can ascertain. That it has done harm may be as conjectural, but the weight of its effect cannot have been of the best, and there will be no regret that it is closed. , Thaw will serve a few weeks at the asylum for criminal insane in New York, and he will then be certified out to take up whatever new life he and his young wife may have planned. They have suffered much before, .during and since the great trials, and the hope will not be begrudged them that their future may be healthier and happier, and that fate has something else in store for them but tragedy and trouble. They are both young and have had experiences that should serve well to balance the rest of their careers in such fashion as will leave them something beside the "ashes of despair" to mark life's progress. o THE IDEA IS COMMENDED. Wherever one goes about the county there is general commenda tion of the idea to create the Port of Astoria. It is held to be the first and best thing that can be done for the broad up-lift of city and county and the most logical, timely and promis ing project bruited here for a long time. We, with every other ambitious Astorian, desire to see this senti ment grow, until its expression at the polls on the first of June next, shall be so pronounced and unambig uous as to make it a cardinal pre text for the largest of our projected enterprises. Defeat 1 of this design means nothing short of communal stultification, after all we have done to ward off the invasion of outside in fluences in this relation; and its en tire newness and urgency make it a matter of compelling interest and duty. Don't forget itl SCANDINAVIAN-AMERICAN SAVINGS BANK HAS MONEY TO LOAN ON GOOD SECURITY IN PACIFIC WATERS. The great fleet under command of Rear-Admiral Evans is in Pacific waters at last, and will soon be head ed north, reversing the course of the journey to date. It is an open secret that the government dreaded the pas sage of the Straits of Magellan more than any other phase of the long cruise, because of its entire adapta bility for the perpetration of any overt trick that might be played upon the ships by wanton hands of fool or enemy. Now that the suspense is removed the rest of the flight will be watched with tranquility; and be fore many moons the 16 magnificent fighters will be safely ensconed in the placid waters of Astoria harbor, where they may be visited by the de lighted and loyal Portlanders at will. THE EAST WIND. The wind out of the East is one of the elemental curses of the earth. Go where one will on this globe of ours4 there is always the dread of it and the imucitent and blasphemous comment upon it. It has prevailed over this glorious valley for three days past, with its false sheen and falser breath and has met only the quiet hatred of those it smote with its chillinii and vicious blast. Like the "mistral" of the Mediterranean it broueht all its maladies with it, and what it could not impose primarily, it wrought out of the weaknesses of those it touched, quickening every dormant touch of disease that was latent and mending, and made them worse. The itrouch it begot in the lower Columbia was something fear ful and strenuous. Bad cess to it! 0 Ask Yourself the Question. Why not use Chamberlain's Pain Balm when you have rheumatism?

Many Sleepless Nights, Owing to a Persistent Cough.. Relief Found at Last "For several winters past my wife has been troubled with a most persis tent and disagreeable cough, which invariably extended over a period of several weeks and caused her many sleepless nights, writes Will J. Hay- ner, editor of the Burley, Colo., Bul letin. Various remedies were tried each ear. with no beneficial results. In November last the cought again put in an appearance and my wife, acting on the suggestion of a friend, pur- msed a bottle of Chamberlains Cough Remedy. The result was in deed marvelous. After three doses the cough entirely disappeared and has not manfiested itself since." This remedy is for sale by Frank Hart and leading druggists. In a lecture Weston says he made only 52 miles one day on his recent tramp, but that he was on the sick list. The explanation is satisfactory. Save Money by Buying Chamber lain's Cough Remedy. You will pay just as much for a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy as for any of the other cough medicines, but you save money in buyng it. The saving is in what you get, , not what you pay. The sure-to- cure-you quality is in every bottle of this remedy, and you get good re sults when you take it.

NEW YORK. Feb. 1, I908.-Or-ganizing the public conscience de scribes as nearly as may be a unique campaign of education of the masses carried on bv the People's Institute of New York which in its present state of development reaches between a million and a half and two million individuals. In its methods the In stitute is unlike any other organiz ation in the world. It is practically a vast college without the formalities and restrictions of the usual institu tion of learning, and its curriculum includes whatever will appeal to and exert an uplifting influence upon the so-called "common people. The tanaible evidence of the Insti tute's existence and progression are its central club house facing Dtuyves ant Square in the heart of the East Side, a chain of smaller clubs in var ious quarters of the "greater city. and big audiences gathered tour niehts in each week in historic Cooper Union where lectures ari . . . r T T given. The late ADram 3. newm secured to the Institute the tree use of CooDer Union, the Faneuil Hall of New York,- when he, with others of a little handful of prominent men, aided Charles Sprague Smith in set ting the movement on foot a decauc aco. Then the institute was praiu..- ally without funds and was regarded as a doubtful though a valuame ex ,;m..nt Dnlv a few hundred peo ple attended its first course of lec tures. Professor Smith, who has directed the work since its inception, was formerly professor of modern languages at Columbia University. His educational eiforts along broader lines have resulted in yearly atten dance uoon the Cooper Union lec ture courses alone of an estimated total of 15,000 persons. Last year the Institute spent about $18,000 on educational opportunities for the people. The idea upon which the woric was founded was that of directing the social unrest then manifest in New York to such an extent that far-see ing men regarded it as a menace. The method determined upon for doing this was the instruction of those soc:al classes among which the unrest was most in evidence. Thus from the beginning, the Institute has stod for evolution as opposed to rev olution in bringing about economic and social g-eforms. The platform adopted at the start to express the purposes and principles of the under taking was this: "The People'slnsti- tute, recognizing fraternity as the fundamental truth, democracy as we highest known forms of human gov ernment, and national worth, seeks to promote, through education and the ro-oneration of good men of all con ditions and occupations, the peaceful evolution of a society based upon tne recognition of the interdependence of man with man." This plattorm nas been found broad enough to appeal to every one who has evolutionary ideas but to exclude those with destructive mental tendencies;, the anarchistic element as such. ' One detail of the Institute's en deavor to further social evolution which has been extraordinarily suc cessful takes the form of dramatic' entertainment at popular prices. The dramatic department was maugur with the managers seats in all New York theatres, save those which cater exclusively to the "social whirlers," may be obta'ned by considerably more than a million workers at prices Men and Women Who Know the Real Value of Shoes Uphold Our Shoes at the Best They Can Find Anywhere Thgy know and believe in our quali ty, pur fit. our style and our wear.
