BRIBERY ALREADY AFOOT. The Portland press is perfectly candid and unambiguous about the fact that bribery is already afoot to defeat George W. Chamberlain for the United States Senatorship. This is a bit earlier than we had expected to hear of the game and we confess to no other element of surprise in the premise than its rather remarkable celerity. The Senatorial game as it will be played out in this commonwealth, from now on to the climax in Janu ary, will be one of the object lessons of the political history of Oregon, and perhaps of the country. It will pay the oldest of the arch-masters of the great and nasty game to watch it closely and take notes of men and measures they know nothing about; it will be a revelation, alright!. Ore gon, politically organized and in her right partisan senses, has turned some of the biggest and foulest tricks of the years; and now, disorganized, unled, irresponsible, the license of the game will be illimitable in finesses as well as finance, AND scandal. It's going to be a free for all scrap, without rules, without mercy, but hardly up to the Bayardan standard. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAlAiAA ! Journey's End By Forbes Dwltfht.

Astoria is never likely to do a greater thing than this, and if it is rightly done, it will repay her hand somely every day of its existance. But it must be done with devoted ad herence to the best principles of en gineering, commercial usage and municipal expediency known to mod ern science, or it will prove the very acme of stupdity. EDITORIAL SALAD The inference is plain that Secre tary Taft and Colonel Bryan do not propose to be touched for any cam pagn cigars. John Sharp Williams' filibusters can triumphantly claim that they used up all the best reading clerks in the House. It is said that the Denver Conven tion is already cut and dried. Most of the delegates will regret to learn en the dry part of it. Oklahoma might try a bull against a comet, but seems to be puzzled about rising in its legislative might to regulate floods and tornadoes. them the trees flaunted tho gorgeous tints of late autumn scarlet, ocher and more snldued shades bleudlng Into a splendid, farreachlng vista. The crisp, clear air stirred the blood like wine. Tho girl laughed, a trifle uneasily. "We shouldn't be doing such things," she said severely. "Of course uot," said Dean, with a chuckle. "We should have maintain ed a staid pace. We should bare con tented ourselves it the most with a measured trot. Itt tremendously wicked the way we swash all the con ventions of this park. We'll have a mounted officer on our trail yet Fleas ant prospect that. A glorious gallop. all the same, wasn't It, and well worth lay a ragged line of hills, behind which glowed a sky red with tho embers of the Hiiuxet. "Well, that was a ride," said Dean, turning to the girl. "Wasn't It?" she cried. "But we must he starting back. See, the sun has set. It will be quite dark If we don't hurry." "I wish I might Inspire you with a thorough recklessness," he said. i "You have." she said breathlessly. j "Then let's go Just one more mile," 1 he urged. j She hesitated. ' "Come," she cried at last I Down the bill they thundered, across I a bridge that spanned a little brook i and up the rise on the other side. Again they drew rein. The gorgeous twilight colors were fading. Below is an expression that is always heard at sight of well developed woman.

"Still, we shouldn't do It" "That's where half the fun comes in." said he. "Hang their old park and Its rules! Do they think we'll limit OREGON NIGGARDLINESS. The majority of 2300 votes already accounted for, in behalf of the Uni versity of Oregon appropriation of $125,000; and the majority of 19,500 against the appropriation of $100,000, for the building of O. N. G. armories, convicts the State of Oregon of nig gardliness, pure and simple. Such returns, in such causes, make manifest the spirit of dubious econ omy, and an unpatriotic estimate of its plainer duties. In the matter of the University bill, the meagre and grudg ing success of the measure startles everyone with the nearness of the disgrace of its defeat and causes a universal sigh of relief for the escape made at the hands of the mod erns who wrought it. On the other hand, the glaring negative recorded against the Armory provision, be comes unhappily patent in the State that was the first to raise a regiment and land it in the Philippines, during the trans-Pacific war; and it will be heard from in the future to the last ing discomfiture of the people. It is this hide-bound policy that keeps Oregon inertly nested in a group of live and vibrant States and marks her as "peculiar," to say the least of it. It is this same habitual, moss-grown passivity that holds her down to one city of commercial sway and influence and narrows her field of operation in all lines for want of competitive bids in the general scheme of development; a condition perilously retroactive in a territory so vastly charged with superb advant-aees. Mr. Bryan, who is resting on his farm, says he looks for good news in the fall. It is inferred that Mr. Bryan expects great things from his crop of buckwheat. A Rhode Island man claims that his health improved on a daily ration of four or five ounces of sand con tinued for several years. Perhaps the strawberries sanded in showery weather are in the nature of a double blessing. The shooting at the monitor in creased the reputation of this kind of craft to stand hard knocks without serious damage. Only two monitors stationed in Manila Bay could make a good fight against a reasonable number of battleships. A year of great crops, as 1908 promises to be, can not be bad for business unless a Democratic victory is threatened. But it isn't. the risk of Incurring the displeasure of j them lay a little Tillage, Its lights al ready beginning to twintie in me gloom. "Enough recklessness?" said he. "Never: This Is Just tho beginning." "Now I'm afraid of you again," said she. ! "Ob, no, you're not afraid of me." he i said, with a strange gentleness. "You're I afraid of a few old, tlmo worn conren ! tlons. You're afraid of all those plans ! that have been made for your future j afraid to answer your own heart and I go against them. You are afraid of j yourself-that you may some time do as you want and thwart your mother's scheming for you. Rut you're not afraid of me." i She began to tremble. "We must go back," she cried, j "Look," said he. "Do you see that spire with the cross on It? Well, be- side that spire Is a little rectory, and ' In the rectory Is a gentle old clergy ' man. He's watching this road down hill even now. Dorothy, he's expecting us." "Oh!" she cried, turning her face away. j "Shall we disappoint hi m?" be asked. ! There was a long pause; then wlth ' out looking at him the girl started her '. horse down the bill. At the foot of It : she stopped and resolutely faced Dean, i Her cheeks were burning, but ber eyes J never faltered. "I am afraid of you," she said, "be ! cause you will always have your way ! with me. You will rule me as you like, j do with me as you please, even as you J have done this afternoon. Yes, I am j very much afraid of you but but take me to your gentle old clergyman. I am very happy even In my fear." A GOOD REASON. THE KEY-PLAN. The great scheme to build a per manent sea-wall along the Astoria front is the kev-plan of her real de velopment. This compels the initial determination of the mot progres sive and adaptive system of construc tion; lines, materials, grades and fa cilities so comprehensive as to include the widest range of utility the future may demand. Such an enterprise is, fundamental ly, entitled to the utter wisdom of its projectors because of its immense bearing on the commerce of the years to come; it must be built to serve other generations, and its cost must be borne thankfully by those that come after; therefore we should hand along something that will warrant the pride and appreciation of those who inherit it and which will serve their Astoria People Can Tell You Why It Is So. Doan's Kidney Pilte cure the cause of disease, and that is why the cures are always lasting. This remedy strengthens and tones up the kidneys, helping them to drive out of the body the liquid poisons that cause back ache, headache and distressing kid ney and urinary complaints. Astoria people testify to permanent cures. Wm. Joyce, 412 Duane street, As toria, Ore., says: "At the time I be gan using Doan's Kidney Pills, I was enduring a great deal of suffering from my kidneys. The secretions from these organs were so profuse as to give me a great deal of annoy ance. As a result of not getting my proper rest at night, I would rise in the morning feeling more tired and weak than when I went to bed and during the day felt weak and languid. The slightest exertion caused severe pains through my back and hips. I tried liniments and planters but did not receive any relief until my atten ton was drawn to Doan's Kidney Pills. I desired to give them a trial and procured a box of Chas. Rogers & Son's drug store. They helped me so greatly that I procured a further sup ply, used them and was entirely cured. I am now in unusually good health and do not hesitate to attribute same to the use of Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

It was a pleasant, almost boyish laugh. His big shoul ders were squared defiantly. "The things one ought to do are gen erally unpleasant," he observed. "Come on. We'll let them out once more." The girl shook ber bead. "No! Oh. no!" she demurred. "Afraid?" he questioned. She nodded.

Again bis laugh rang out hut the girl turned to him with a sudden seri ousness. "You make me rather afraid of you at times." she said. "Y'ou tempt me to do reckless tiling.

"I wish I really might Inspire you to reck less deeds. 1 wish I might" "Now, please," the girl begged, with heightening color. "Oh, all right!" said he good natured ly. "I know the subject is tabooed. I'll observe the conventions you've im posed upon me and keep my tongue to the funereal pace." He sat for a time staring silently into the water At last he straightened him self in the saddle. "I'd like another gallop," be remark ed, "a wilder one, a madder one. I'd like to get out of this little old park and go somewhere where there's a lev si stretch of road and no hampering rules of pace." A light came Into the girl's eyes. She threw back 'her head and gathered up the reins. "So would I." she declared, a trifle breathlessly. Dean swung a!)0ut to face her. There was a quiet smile on his lips. "Come, then." he said simply. "We really shouldn't." she objected. "Come," he repeated. "I'm afraid when you speak in that fashion." "Come." He turned the horse from the bridee with good results, having suffered with it for many years, and this is the first thing I ever found that ever gave me any relief."
