Oregon, Washington and Idaho Increasing cloudiness; probably rain. costly, confiscatory, and retroatcive doctrine of ring politics, which (save in the few, honorably noted, excep tions), has been fastened upon this community, and is now thoroughly understood and deplored, and are ready for a change. - The Republicans of this city have been cajoled and cuddled into qua si partnership with the boss and the gang and made to contribute to a condition that has become unbearable the taxpayer and property owner paying the score, and paying heav ily. Get together, and don't be long in doing it Time and - pluck and candor and open-action are what are demanded now! THE LAW, AND THE MAN. . The thinking American, with the good of his country aLbeart, will not waste time in weighing the man against the law, in his analysis of the Heney-Haas affair at San Francisco. Neither the federal prosecutor nor his murderous assailant are of any moment, whatever, in comparison with the safety and sanctity of the code and court, except in so far as F. J. Heney stood as the representa tive of both. " Divested of all prejudice, with all side issues eliminated and human in terest elements held in reserve, the prime fact remains that the law of the land has been grossly violated within its own sanctuary, its high servant laid low by the hand of law lessness, and its sovereignty defied and denied. This is enough for us, at this time; when the dignity and power of the law shall have been restored in this premise, it will be in order to inquire into the prejudice, or passion, or both, that wrought the outrage. We hope the people of San Fran cisco will merge and stand, an im pregnable phalanx, for the redemp tion of their State from the blasting tourge that has been put upon it by the act of Haas. He has put a cli max of foul transgression and dan gerous turpitude upon the warrant I the people are demanding for the and weight of the law that even his rights denied them.: and the imposi- Itions thrust upon them, lhey are OR.

There is no time for delay, nor any reason for it The sooner we get lined up and cut out the work of the hour and assign it to ! Surprising as it may be, there are other people concerned in the pro gress and good government of this city, beside some of the councilmen, a few of the contractors, and the me chanics and laborers employed on the public works of Astoria; and the two last named groups of citizens, the employes, will do well to think this matter over in the interest of Hexamethylenetetramlne The above is the name of a Ger man chemical, which is one of the " lu 8cr. .i.u- : j:.. ut..... hands, for dispatch, the betterl my Remed Hexarnethyleneie .

Otto Peterson, candidate for tb water commission for the four-year term in the Fourth ward, yesterda formally withdrew from the nomin tion accorded him by the Citizens' convention, and also announces that he will not accept the Republican and Democrat nominations for the same position given in the primary After consulting with an atorncy Mr. Peerson -deemed it best not to per mit his name to stand for the com misibn, inasmuch as the charter de dares a member of that body must be a "taxpayer. It happens that Mr. Peterson's holdings are either not in his name or, quite largely, ore in the form of stock in one or more corpo ratins, and according to the Oregon laws, it is the corporation as a whole which pays taxes and not the indi vidual stockholder. Thus by reason of these technicalities Mr. Peterson seemed to be precluded from holding the office. At - the city hall yesterday Mr. Peterson expressed regret that he had unwittingly gotten into the mat ter as far as he did. He had pre sonted the question, he says, to one member of the city administration for advice and had been told that he was eligible, the advice evidently having been given without due con sideration. ! Robert Carruthers, candidate for police commissioner yesterday filed his acceptance.' ' with Mr. Carruther s acceptance in, and Mr. Peterson having with drawn, there is only one nominee who has not accepted, namely Mr. Smith, who received the Democrat nomination for the mayoralty.' Mr. Smith has accepted " the ' Citizens' nomination given., him in convention, but his failure to acept .the Demo crat 'nomination accorded him at the primary either may mean that he is satisfied there is na seed to file acceptance within a stipulated time; or else that he does not intend to accept the Democrat nomination at all. This latter suggestion was made by several yesterday. Mr. Smith is out of the city. ' AMUSEMENTS THE HOLY CITY" IS A BAD SIGN NOW MANY WAIT UNTIL TOO LATE -TRY THIS.

The pres entation as given by managers La Compte and Fletcher is certainly worthy of all the .praise that can possibly be bestowed upon it. The members of the cast are all artists in their particular line, not a weak member being among the 16 or more in the company. The piece at this instance will not be reviewed in de tail, besides, the play is a famous one and is thoroughly understood by any one who has made a study of the Bible.
