The failure of the Northwestern Long Distance Telephone Company to accept the franchise it sought, and was granted, by the Common Council of Astoria, clears the situation of the threat of a dual service and leaves the measure of amendment in this utility strictly up to the Pacific States Telephone Company; and luckily for all concerned, that company is doing its level best to meet the demands made upon it and all promises made in return; and if by the first of Jan uary the new . and modern system shall be in operation here under its auspices, as is now certain, Astoria will be on a par with the best in this direction. Without prejudice to either com pany, it is a proven aggragation to attempt to maintain two services of this character in one community; the employment of one makes the use of the other imperative on the score of business convenience and doubles the cost of the utility, beside hampering the despatch desired of it. As to the qualities of the respective services, that is a matter of personal prefer ence. - The cool indifference of the North western people in this premise, will without doubt act as a barrier to any new effort it shall ever make to get a footing in this city.Upon the face of it, it has acted in a negligible fash ion from the very start, and has com mitted itself to a conviction in the popular mind here that it was simply stalling the people and cared very lit tle, if anything, for the concession granted it; a policy it will be well to remember if it shall seek entrance here in the future. A public fran chise of such value is worth better consideration than it has received at the hands of these people, who have not even taken the trouble to commu nicate with the authorities in regard to it and their purposes. FROM WITHIN THE RANKS. mand or go to the wall and carry the good and bad with him; that public tolerance is at its limit and only the general obedience to the law and the communal sentiment of decency from now onward, can save the business to those who would make it respectable and tolerable.

It seems that th two men have been working to gether longer than has been supposed. GRAND JURIES ESSENTIAL. For our part we are glad to see the grand jury re-instaded in its legal place in this State. We believe in it, because it is one element of local au thority and consequence that is re spected by the most obdurate and ag gressive doer of evil. Of course it has never been out of reach as an or ganic institution, but the compulsory session is renewed and its mantel of suggested power s again regularly in sight and effect. One good grand jury can do more to cleanse a community of its ex-. ecresences that any other factor in the legal regimen; what it does has the stamp and significance that is needed to compel a change for the better not alone in the sphere of evil, but in the minds of men grown in different to gross conditions. We are too prone to placate our civic debasement, here as in all other com munities, so long as our personal skirts are clear of the muck and mire, we ignore our franchise to keep the community up to ,the decenter stan dards and pass the responsibility along to those less inclined to inter fere than we are. It is a policy of the heedless citizen, which costs him heavily by indirection in the end, and which leaves him little to be proud of at any time, when the moral sta tus of his city or town is under scru tiny, and discussion. ANOTHER NEW CURE. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Dr. Le Grand N. Dcnstow created a furor among medical men last night by announcing to a representative body of physicians at the New York Academy of Medicine that he had discovered an absolute cure for locomotor ataxia. Dr. Denslow read a paper describing the results of his ten years study of the disease and cited thirty cases in all of which a successful cure had been effected. Dr. Denslow's claims were endors ed by Dr. John A. Wycth and other prominent physicians. Dr. R. II. Cunningham, chief of clinic on ner vous disease at the school of physi- cans and surgeons in Columbia Uni versity discussed Dr. Denslow's paper and said his success in the new treatment of the disease was re markable and would probably revo lutionize the present methods of treatment. ' WHAT DOES IT MEAN. The National Model License League of America, one of the most powerful combinations of the liquor factors in the country, a massed and organic group of distillers, brewers and wholesalers, representing the rank and file of the industry all over the nation, is out with a strong and urgent letter to the retail trade, to the saloonman, insisting upon a rad ical change in the manner of conduct ing the business everywhere, m or der that it may not be utterly oblit erated by the prohibition and local option movements that are sweeping the land. It is a straightforward bid for the rehabilitation of the business, for the severance of the saloon from the gambling-joint, the bawdy-house, the pol itics of the place and hour, the evil resort and relation of all kinds, and the assumption of decenter business conditions and standards; for the eli mination of the dive everywhere, and utterly. The President of the League in. dealing with the subject has left no loop-hole for double-dealing in the great premise; he declares the business must be cleansed, or ousted; that the sentiment against the grog gery and dive has become too univer sal and too immense for further inr difference on the part of the trade, and that the day of revolt is past for the saloonman; he must meet an im perative and impregnable public de- Mr. Hearst said at Salem, 111., some time ago that the name Democracy no longer had any distinct meaning, and he spoke the truth. For nearly half a century the Democratic party has been trying to forget its past and every four years it has made a new platform .and tried to square most of the past. That party was opposed to National Banks and then to public improvements at the hand of the Federal government, insisting that the Constitution conferred no such power on Congress to provide for ihem by law. They then declared the war to be a failure. They took up the greenback and fiat money issue only to drop it after a few years' op eration. They were in favor of free trade, then of free silver and then back to free trade again. But to-day the two most conspicu ous leaders of that party, Mr. Bryan and Mr. Hearst, have gone over to the Socialists and Populists for their political doctrines and both favor government ownership, not only of railroads, but all public utilities. The name Democrat has in truth lost its meaning. It represents simply agita tion, if the voices of these two lead ers speak for the party which names them as those who have a right to speak by authority. If the majority of the people are looking for novelties in government thev should vote the Democratic tick' et. If they are looking for agitation and revolution they should vote for William T. Brvan. But if the people are looking for stability and peace with prosperity, they should vote for .the party and the men who stand for stability against revolu tion, for peace and prosperity against agitation and adversity. The Repub lican party of to-day stands for the same policies that it did forty years ago, and Mr.; Taft is just the same kind of Republican that Abraham Lincoln was. DESTRUCTION OF PICKLES. NEW YORK, Oct. 2-Lots of New York children may have to go without pickles this winter, owing to a fire that occurred last night at Hicksville, L. I. At 8 o'clock flames were discovered in the big pickle factory of Alert and Maguire and despite the frantic efforts of the vil lagers the entire plant, said to be one of the largest in the country, was de stroyed. Forty tons of sauerkraut was roast ed to black cinders. Thirty tons of pickles, averaging 1,000,000 pickles to the ton or 30,000,000 pickles in all were destroyed. The savory smell of hot sauerkraut and pickles was dif fused all over that part of Long Island. The fire lighted up the sky for miles around. Half a dozen lawyers who were trying a case before the magistrate of Hicksville, rushed out of the court room and, aided by citizens, aided in pushing one whole carload of pickels out of the factory shed and to a place of safety. The loss was estimated at $60,000, partly cov ered by insurance. tit- is a food drink for young and old that pleases the palate strengthens the body builds up the nerves quickens the mind.

Laxare Weiller today reiterated that he had ordered the construction of 50 areoplanes on the Wright model.
