We are voicing the sentiment of the people ot this section of Oregon when we declare that the confusion and turmoil and discredit of the- re markable attitude of the Republicans in this State toward the Democracy, has gone far enough; that the de cency and dignity of Republican Ore gon calls a halt and for the thought of readjustment and redemption with in the lines of that party. Blanket the past; and draw a line of demarcation that shall gradually clear the field of ambiguity and re store the partisan balance, to the strength and honor of the State at home and abroad, and especially abroad; for we may be able to smother our own sense of the inequities and palliate our own folly and ad versities, but we have no right to covet nor demand the respect of our fellows on the outside so long as we adhere to the absurd and false premise we have set up. Of what possible advantage will the election of Geo. E. Chamberlain to the United States Senate be to the State of Oregon?. He will be simply another cipher in the minority at Washington; he is not statesman enough to rise above his associates there; he can achieve nothing for us; he will not represent us in the real sense of the term even if the last man in Oregon had voted for him, simply because he will not be of the com manding majority that does things and gets things. He has, had his share of honors at the hands of men to whom he is politically diametrical ly opposed by every experience and instinct of his life, and he may drop ped with decency and safety and justice. We know, with measurable cer tainty, that the man who goes, to Washington next winter from this State, is to be a Portland man; but we still insist that even if it be a Portland man, he must be a Repub lican and the biggest and brainiest of the lot; a man who will take a place of command on the instant he takes his seat in the Senate; a man who will be observed, honored, looked up to, waited upon; whose word and war rant will pass current with the mas ters in state-craft, who will have in fluence and prestige from the moment the toga falls on his shoulder. With such a man in the upper branch of the National congress; with Hon. Charles W. . Fulton in the cabinet (and we believe things are shaping themselves to that end), Oregon would again hold conspicuous and definite place in the realm of governmental power and influence, and the partisan at home would have proud and justifi able predicate for realigning himself, and working, honestly and honorably, to the nobler ends of party ameliora "tJort and achievement. , v . Speaking, again, for the clean and conservative Republicans of th'rs part of the State," we say, that if ihi new Senator from Oregon must come from " Portland, in the interest of all we have pleaded, send Hon. Harvey W. Scott there, and save the situation at once and for all time. He is none . too old to wind out a splendid career at Washington; he has won the best and highest reward within the gift of Oregonians; he would be strong and helpful and commanding as any man in the group of 92 delegated there; he is of the ultra type of our best men. and his election would crown the noblest ambition of his long and useful life and inspire him to the greatest and finest work of that life. GET DOWN TO BUSINESS. This is the year in which Astoria must do a lot of reasoning and safe thinking. Events and men have thrust upon her a number of important propositions, the mis-handling of which will prove very disastrous; and all are to be settled at the December polls. We are taking time by the forelock and shall constantly urge the wisest treatment of the larger issues and help acquaint the people with the essentials that demand their deepest interest and in doing this we shall be actuated by no spirit of politics or partisan rivalry, but upon the simpler and straighter hypothesis of the good of Astoria. It must be remembered that there are 13 councilmen to be elected as well as the complete official staff of the city; that' the water commission is to be elected, de nuovo, and that there are a number of exceedingly serious charter amendments to be treated. All of which should invoke the best public concern, and this may not be attained without the most ac tive and intelligent thinking on the part of the honest citizen to whom the future of Astoria is something more than the present and paltry success of some of her people. One by one we are going to take up the cardinal matters and discuss them from the standpoint of utility and the conservation of the best municipal standards; and to this end we cordially invite communications apropos of those things that appeal strongest to the individual sense of the elector and which are charged with the greater elements of interest and value. SHOEING THE COBBLER. It occurs to us that the most righteous demonstration to be made with the new law of public re-call just passed by the people, is to apply it in the summoning of its author, sponsor and champion, United States Senator Jonathan Bourne, Jr., from place and function at Washington. There is no juster nor more expedient method of testing the efficacy of the mandate; and its instant success might make it even more palatable than it appears to have been at the recent polls. At all events, it would try out the faith of the Senator in his newest legal creation, and afford a line of amusement for the people at large for sometime to come.

In warships, as in the pas senger liners, the turbine engine is making good. Our one warship on the lakes is now engaged in recruiting, but the commander knows better than to al low himself to be overwhelmed by putting up a sign that men are want ed to go around the world on the Pacific fleet. One of the- latest Socialist plat forms demands the abolition of the Supreme Court, the Senate, and the president's veto power. Mr. Debs and Mr. Hearst will put in bids for these advanced thinkers as soon as the campaign warms up.

PORTLAND, June 10. - The great Rose Festival of Portland is now a nuitter of history. It was easily the most eventiful week Port land ever enjoyed. The convention of the Pacific Coast Ad Men's League started at the Commercial Club Mon day morning, closing the day with a dinner that was simply perfect. Admiral Swinburne and the other officers of the Charleston, the York town and six torpedo boats partici pated in every event, and had much to do with the success of the pro gramme. The parades were all su perior, the automobile races were re markable and the attendance both of visitors and home people at each and every feature, is conclusive proof of the prosperity of the Pacific Northwest. The Western Master Printers As sociation, composed of all the leading printers between the Rocky Moun tains and the Pacific Ocean, met in convention at Portland last week. They are now thoroughly organized and every important city on the Coast is represented upon the Executive Board. In the valley around Cove, Oregon, there will be produced this year two hundred tons of cherries and five hun dred cars of apples. The people there realize that they will need from two hundred and fifty to three hundred people in pddition to their local popu lation to pick and pack the cherry crop. A special. Portland excursion party will attend the Commencement Exer cises of the Oregon State University on June 24th. The Oregon Association of Title Men, which will affiliate with the Na tional Association of Title Men, wo organised at Portland on Saturday. Delegates from many section of Ore gon were given a' banquet by the Portland fraternity Saturday evening. With the election over and the as surance of a great cherry and berry crop, the people of all Oregon should "get busy" ami advertise nunc than ever before. With it latest addition, the Toledo Development League, the Oregon Development League now has eighty-three members. Under the iiew national banking law, approved May 30th, Oregon's added quota of currency will be $2,-U4,0)0. A GOOD REASON. Astoria People Can Tell You It la So.

The secretions from these organs were so profuse as to give me t great deal of annoy ance.

The slightest exertion caused severe pains through my back and hips. I tried liniments and plasters 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. Roger & Son'a drug store. They helped me o greatly that I procured a further sup ply,' used them and was entirely cured.
