Rogers, one of the best Oregon mayors, will not have the municipal honors of Salem again; unless his people will guaranty that no salary Viair be voted the of fice: And Herman Wise, another of ficer of the same ilk and quality, does not want the Astoria mayoralty again,, unless th ere shajl be rational compensation attached, to it,, in, order to covet the 1 unavoidable 1 personal expense incident ito ? it. ' And there you are! The fact of the matter is, the peo ple should make a rule to pay every roan who serves c them, i no : matter, wnat tne nature ot tne work. i ne laborer is worthy of his hire." The paying, promptly, " of " a reasonable and compensating salary, puts the public ' employer and public ' servant upon an equitable footing, 'and1 leaves no 'room- for reproach; reniggirig, re volt or recession on either "hand, and marks definitely the lines of reliance ..and duty that else might become hazy. ' ( ' t ' Time, thought, personal' interest, and 'skilled service, ; especially of a sort, expected of a public official, arts worthy just, as much in the popular sense as in the private relation; un compensated labor, in all its ' most tentative aspect,-5 is slavery, even though it be voluntary; and such con ditions are foreign to American, prin ciples of government and , business. Uncle Sam pays, the States pay, the Counties pay, and there is no reason at all whjr cities should not!pay. r The da'y;o empty ; honors has fled; :We pay very practically and largely fpr everything we get; and a good May or is likely to earn quite as much as any other 6fficer in- the land; there fore,' pay him well. " '" J ' ": Just why one public servant should receive, entertain, travel,, give time, thought, study, money and personal concern to. public affairs, free, while all' others in the. service' are properly compensated, '. is one ''.of those in equities y that . heed ' correctibn; the more so that we have permitted it ,to grow and engraft itself upon 'the body politic all these years. Public spirit is1 onething to be expected in this country; but ,!not to' the justification of public wrong. or' niggardliness. TAFT AND BRYAN FIRST. ' We of Astoria, with a gopd many other cities, have Our hands .'full of politics, 'present and prospective,' and w'e are 'naturally 'ambitious to mak the most of the men and policies that are best '.and nearest to our destiny. But' with a national, anc a municipal, election fore-fending we feet that it were wisest, to pass up 'one; before w'e tackle, the other and spare our selves the confusion incident the mixing of both. To that end we will devote ourJndiyi,dual interests, , to the certain election' of Mr. ' Taft to the Presidency, leaving Mr. Bryan hat nortion which has always fallen to him ii ' matters of ' this' ikind.andj after'' they" are both " logical and j comionamy Desiowea m inosc situa tions to which a wise Providence and a Republican electorate shal "share called them, we will be in grirne a.Ad, free shape to4dispense the more ex actfng; (Juifgs hat lie &f 6iCraunlctp$ dor$, 4nd.lsel up a new and .complete roster of city officers (with one or two exceptions, perhaps) and go at , it with the - assurance that some changes; ;are 'not ipnl een(ial,Ji bm absolutely imperative. .

That is what is going to happen in this man's town. The pco pie are awakening to the fact that their affairs, have been ,"run" for them; that they have not had the ex act dominion that belonged to them as a governing and owning body; the whole country , is alive with the strange sentiment of taking over their own and administering it to suit themselves a bit; and Astoria is distinctly in the notion. So', while we are busy with 'Mr; TaftV over whelming election on the 6th of next month, we will simply nurse this lit tle back-thought and bring it into current employ at the propitious and timely hour. ' ; - ' ? f A BUSINESS ISSUES. ' "It is a question of business," said Mr. Taft!to 'the Nebraska farmers, in pointing out why " they should vote for Republican candidates j and poln cies.in the' cornlngj election. It cert tainly UK a very serious, question ' of busineSr,! Jio ;mty fpj'i th farpiers, but for the; wa'e-earner, tCe Vna'nu facturer, the ' merchant, 'for everyone who has anything to buy or sell, in the form of labor or -if any product f -,abo,r Y,l,.etn.i?r. ,Republi9an pHncipie '.of, rotectiiig Arqericari M: bor ani'its productV stall' he main tained or American Industry shall be handed over to Bryan and his free trade associates, to" be stripped of protection, and exposed defenseless to' European and'6thef foreign5 com-a petition. Any American farmer who doubts that it is a question of business can settle bis doubts by visiting the lo cality -where the Red River - of the North crosses , the. Canadian boun dary line. Pembina; in Minnesota and Emerson in the Canadian province of Manitoba are on . that line, in the midst of a great wheat-raising re gion, the two villages named he side by side. They are equally dist ant from Liverpool. Accofding to the Bryan theory that the; ' American farmer needs no protection, the price of wheat ought to be the Same in both villages. But, according to Represen tative McCleary' of Minnesota, it is not. The wheat of the farmer who markets at Pembina ! always brings more often as much, as 15 to 20 cents a pushel more, than that of the inarkerts at Emerson. The reason that the wheat of the American farmer sold in Pemberton brings a higher price is that the farmer on this side' of the line has the great populous home market of the United States at' his door !with ntbre than 80,000,000 of consumers. The Canadian farmer has no such nome market and must dispose of his rheat abroad. The American ' home market was' created arid is 'maintain ed by .the Republicati policy of pro Ijectirfg' American industries,' and also 6f protecting ' the.' American farmer from . the growing competition of Canada and Argentinai which, with protection removed, could poijr.yast quantities of grain ihto ' ihd ' United States,' thus, putting a stop' to 'the prosperity of our American farmers, and reducing them ' to a hand-to' mourh r existence.y- ryr ry y TT i Jplajn s Mr; ITifl gm jt js'a question of business for the farmers ofthe'West and of every section of the Jtfnji jn)that there, shall not be a revision of the tariff by the enemies protection, but that the work of revision shall be intrusted to a Re 'nbljcajj congrgs'aAd' aijlminist ration with Taft and Sherman as President ,Un.ted as. , A Healthy Family "Our whole '. family ,'has', enjoyed good health since we. began' using Dr.iKing New Life .Pills,- three 'yearstago," says I A. ; Bartlet, of Rural Route 1, Guilford, Maine.

George - C Tyler, the managing director of Liebler & Co. has purchased four plays ; for Miss Robson's use during the coming sea son, and the young star will be seen first in a drama by Richard Harding Davis,, to. be called "Vera, the Medi um," a title that gives a clue to its nature. One of the big effects to be introduced, and incidentally .one of the real novelties as far as the stage is concerned, will be-a, "materaVza tion". scene. .The awakened interest in spiritualism since the work of Sir Oliver Lodge; Sir William , Crookes, Charles Richet, and Lombroso has been enormous, and .it seems fitting that aplay should have been construc ted embodying some of, the interest ing facts. Liebler & Co. have engaged the services of one of fhe most prom inent psychists, of New ; YU,(t who has atterly" conducted any number of scinetific investigations into the claims Of spiritualism, to lay out the scene and materialization scene, and a famous electric illusionist will stage the effect. Nat C. Goodwin, in between the times of .the fsuit for ,dvorce he is bringing against his5 wife, Maxine El liott, on the grounds of desertion, is out at Reno associating with his gold mnes.arid the 'character of Cameo Kirby, the principal character of the new play he is to appear in this com ing season, and which has been writ ten for him by Booth Tarkington and Harry Leon Wilson, the authors of" "The Man From Home." The play goes by the same name as the char actef Ooodwir is 'tot assume and thse )vho are famjllar with the MS., insist that, he erstwhile J comedian will have the grchtsi chance he has had in many, many years.

Arnold Daly got right up in court the other day and confessed that he didn't know anything about business; that' he didn't want to; that he knew where his money went; that he sometimes earned a thousand dollars a,week; that he was invariably broke; that his family was an expensive one; that he owned two. suits of, clothes, and that his brother was a stage elec trician who couldn't work because he had such an ungoverriable temper.
