Our people should not forget that there are two fronts to the beautiful bay that lies at our doors; the- land ' front and the water-front The latter is perfect; nothing we can do will addto its charm nor increase the glory of it, and we would not change it if we could. It is a fixed and universal delight to all men, natives and strangers alike, and the view from any level we possess gratifies every sense and ideal we . cherish. But the view the other way around is Quite another thin?: that is. the near-view from the channels that pass close to the dock-lines; it is simply hideous; a disgrace to the community and a patent confession that we are without pride and spirit enough to get in and clean up. We hear of it often, far too often from sources that might as readily say something very much oleasanter and more to our credit if we but gave cause tor it as amply as we furnish grounds for the adverse comment And it is hieh time we wr onina about our business of making this cnange. it is up to us, generally peaking, and up to the property owners mere, primarily and specifi cally. If there is not charter authnrtrv enough in the present organic law of ine city, then we had best amend that instrument to a point that will give the common council power to do this woric at the cost of the property and enforce its orders. As a general thing we would avoid prescriptive rule as uaoie to misconstruction and abuse; but there are times and persons sus- cepuwe to no other system of con trol; and the good of the public is a bigger thing than the purse of a negligent, or a penurious, owner, who contrioutes deliberately to the dis credit and disfavor of the citv As a mere starter, we &ncro-c that at least, the rotting, falling, and aban- uonea omidings, docks and piling, black, ragged, valueless, and hideous be torn out and done way with, by a commission appointed by the council, or on the initiative of the people, or by any other competent authority; ana mat no time be lost in the doing of it. It will be a win nine rartl fnr . O Astoria to have these things out of sign: when the tens of thousands of visitors flock in here this summer, scores and hundreds of whom have been here before and will note the radical improvement and comment on it to the certain god of the city.

Conspirators Before Judge Landes , inargea with Defrauding. CHICAGO. Feb. 22 Thnma P Daniels of Milwaukee and Attorney 'tU THE $1000 LICENSE. There is a doctrin gaining ground throughout the East that the saloon, as a business element, will become vastly more tolerable, morally, and much more profitable to its owner, if it Shall Dav an annual license nf $1000, in Leu of the lesser sums now universally exacted throughout the country. And if the rule proves efficacious there, it will be just as good tor the West; and Astoria being vi tne west, the subject becomes one of interest here. With her 50 saloons, Astoria has one for each 300 of her people, which, in itself, is too restricted a margin; and when this is reduced by the elimination of, approximately, 150 children and 50 wives and mothers, tne residium ot 1UU men to patronize each saloon, curtails the reliance of the business to a group so small that ext-nordmary indulgence, and practi- cally common drunkeness, must make up the paralyzing shortage that else would ensue. These are the conditions that make against the saloon as a business. mere are two powerful agencies al ways at hand with the people for the t checking of this evil, to-wit, high ' license and prohibition. Of the two, many prefer the former because it provides the instant and positive standard of regulation, without hav ing recourse to the sumptuary and sweeping strictures imposed by the latter; and we believe that 90 saloon- sible.
