Multnnmihans. otherwise. the good people of Portland, along with the bad, are gagging a bit over the alleged "joker" found in the general port bill introduced by Bean, of Lake county; and are freely charging the Clatsop delegation with having in spired the smooth little "knock-out- drop." In order the emphasize their own peculiar innocence in the prem ises and convey, the impression that they never even suspected sich a thing in the high and honorable course of law-making at Salem, they got Campbell of Clackamas to make the awful discovery and announce it This he has done cleverly enough, and there is uproar galore in the south wing of the capitol Portland objects to being done out of her sheer and unquestioned con trol of the Columbia river, and of the Willamette, and will fight the bill to extinction rather than permit the shadow of a chance being given to any other port on the rivers (or the coast, either, for the matter at that) It is the same old fight for supremacy . in a field where a half hundred towns may one day compete with her for the direct commerce of the two gTeat valleys. God only knows what she will do when the north shore towns and cities rise up and assert themselves along the Columbia, for neither the jurisdictional right, nor At all events she ia going to hog everything in Oregon, and the new port bill is doomed. We are guiltless of having had a thing to do with the measure down here; even our com missioner, Hon. Herman Wise, had nothing to do with the work of Messrs. Flanders and Clark and never attended a meeting of the commis sion appointed to confer on the gen eral up-lift of the Oregon ports and for the preparation of legislative mat ter in that relation. But he did ap prove the bill in question which was sent him by his colleagues. We have established our own port by initiative and !t is well founded and quite invulnerable to any attack from Portland; and we shall employ it. not in derogation and denial of Porltand, but as a shield against her encroachment; and right here we de sire to congratulate the voters of Astoria on the wisdom' they evinced when they set up the Port of Astoria at their last election; they have put the port in invincible shape and are free from any complications that may arise in this ugly emergency at Salem; and this fact exculpates our delega tion from all suspicion of interest in the injection of the cruel little "joker. We hope the bill will pass, joker and all; it will be a lesson that, in days to come, will induce Portland to make friends of her sister-cities rather than, gradually, to divest her self of all honest and friendly con cern throughout the civic realm of Oregon. THAT ELECTRIC LINE. her own influence, can save her then, j and the day is certain to come when I The Morning Astorian still insists Washington will assert her dominion j that the closing of the right-of-way at our front doors and all the odd turmoil of a mis-directed ' Eastern winter. The rain we have with us still, and it is one of the best, health iest, most practicable exterminators of all the rest of the climatic imposi tions that we know of. and never fails us. Astoria is alright and getting better fast! SAYS KISSIIG HEROES IS The timely suggestion is made that the soldiers returning from Cuba af ter a long stay should not take part in the exercises of March 4 without careful attention to their clothing as related to the weather. This warn ing should be general. The inaugural date in the calendar has a range of over 70 degrees and is a snare for everybody. A London paper declares that reciprocity treaty between the United States snd Canada wilt surely bring about the absorption of the Domin ion by this country. fl If that should ever happen what a lot of new stars would have to be added to the flag. A Buffalo paper says the second in augurai ol Governor Hughes is one of the best speeches he has ever de livered." What a handsome conioli ment Messina sufferers are beginning to apear among the tramps, but if they tell a glib story the natural inference is that they are not genuine. It is quite evident that Senator Till man and President Roosevelt would never be able to work harmoniously on the same newspaper. Are the Republicans proud of their victory?" asks Mr. Bryan's paper. They are mighty well contented, but unable to say surprised. A state legislature that wastes time at the start is certain to find itself embarrassed in essential matters as a session nears the end. A Boston pnysician nas an exag gerated idea of prosperity. He rec ommends that each adult eat a dozen raw eggs daily. DR. PURIE BAILY DECLARES HABIT A NERVOUS DISEASE TO BE FEARED. DIGEST All along these lines as fiercely as Port-4 land is asserting hers now. It is, per haps, Portlands idea to "ham string" the spirit of the lower river on both sides and be in impregnable dominance when that day comes; but we are of the opinion that she will miss her guess.

HOT CHICKEN TIMES EVERY EVENING ft HOME-MADE, and of the choiceat ingredients; put up under supervis ion that guarantees their perfect freedom from all deleterious matter. MRS. F. WOOLLEY PROPRIETRESS for the Oregon Coast Railway is the commanding element of public con cern here; that this enterprise, if judiciously handle4 "will do more to wake people and things up around this city an county than anything in prospect In other words, it is the biggest and best proposition now before our people and has more of definite promise than anything touch ed by the Chamber of Commerce in the past two years. We hope the route will be cleared very shortly and the last deed in its behalf filed with out further delay. This will bring the matter squarely to the financial issue; and if there is failure there (which we have not the slightest ground for believing), we may go boldly into other moneytary camps with a sound and practicable proposition and seek the bolstering rarely denied such it- pendable overtures. It ts bound to win out on its own logical merit, and no man should stand in its way, and we do not believe any man in Clat sop will do this. IN THE STORM CENTER, Astoria is on the westerly marge of the storm-center set op by the ele ments in the Northwest this winter. We are getting our full share of the ice and snow and wind, and natural ly, of the rainfall. Luckily, we are at a point where water congestion is impossible; we have no fear of de vastating floods here, because of the spread of things down this way and the near resort of the boundless sea which generously absorbs accesses of all kinds and leaves us free, safe and grateful. We do not disparage the rain; that s one of our elemental perquisites and we have no desire to see it abridged nor diverted. We need it all; it goes to make our exquisite summers and those creations arc among our proudest boasts and standard joys; without them we should be lost, as would tens of thou sands of tourists and pleasure-seekers each year. Even Portland has no recourse but to admit the superlative beauty and perfect comfort of the Astoria summer. Therefore, for the nonce, we are willing to put up with the rare adver sities of frozen and busted water pipes; of slushy streets and slippery hill sidewalks; of drifted snow banks EVERYTHING WILL BE DIGEST ED AND NOT LEFT TO FERMENT. PROMPT RELIEF IS WAITING There Will be Very Few Dyspeptics Here After This Remarkable Prep aration Becomes Better Known Hndreds of Men and Women Here Are Now Suffering IJnnces sarily. Does it ever occur to you how busy that little stomach of yours is? It actualy only holds three pints, though in one year you force it to take in 2S00 pounds of material, di gest it and prepare it for assimila tion to the blood. Do you wonder at the number of cases of Indigestion and Stomach trouble. You crowd it with steaks and pastry, irritate its juices witn spices ana acias ana ex pect this little four-ounce will to do its work. Is there any wonder that your food passes undigested, or lays like a lump of lead in the stomach? That everything you eat turns to acid, Stomach gas and Stomach poison, putrefying the intestines and diges tive canals, causing Biliousness, Headaches, Dizziness and Indiges tion Heartburn, nauseous Breath, constipation and other more danger ous symptoms? Call your disease what you will- Indigestion, Gastritis, Nervousness, Dyspepsia, Catarrh of Stomach, etc. you know the real name, the real disease is fermentation of the food you eat a sour Stomach, which belches gas and erupts undigested food or causes a feeling of nausea and miserableness. All these miseries vanish prompt ly when you stop this food fermen tation. Take SO cents to your Phar macist for a case of Pape's Diapep siu. Eat a triangule and five min utes later your Stomach will do what a healthy Stomach should that is, turn every bite you eat into bodily nourishment and without you realiz ing that you have a Stomach. One triangule will digest 'all the iooi you eat without the aid of the stomach, because it contains just the elements found in a' good, strong, healthy stomach. , NEW YORK. Jan. 22 -That the public kissing of popular heroes and the showering of attention on freak musicians, of which this coun try has had numerous recent exam pies, is a form of hysteria and a re vival of Tarantism, the strange con tagious disorder that spread over southern Europe during the four tcenth century, is suggested by the February number of Appletou's magaaine in an article by Dr Pierce Bailey, an eminent authority on nervous diseases. It is pointed out that Tarantism was characterized by dancing, jumping and throwing about of the arms. Today it would be recognised as hysteria, the dis order by which the higher part of consciousness loses control and be comes more or less subordinate to action. In the days when the my tenous disease to which the name Tarantism was applied spread con sternation through Europe, the whole population 06 villages, schools and convents often was af fected and the trouble was attribut ed to all sorts of occult causes, to wihehcraft, and to the direct influ ence ol the Devil. Modern hysteria, however, mani fests itself even more generally in mental than in physical actions. It accounts for innumerable fads and queer cults and the Appleton article points out that the sending of flow ers and letters of sympathy to brut al murderers by women ordinarily refined, are manifestations of the same tendency to hysteria. Occas ionally, in tha present day, a hyster ical wave sweeps over a whole com munity, just as it did in the four teenth century epidemic of TaranS ism, as when practically the whole population of London went wild over the relief of the small garrison at Mafeking in South Africa, dur ing the Boer Mar, and indulged in riotous demonstrations that des troyed hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property and brou ght into use a new word "mafe king," to describe such outbursts. leads to a hysterical state of mind is pointed out as explaining many of the reform fads of the moment Many of these depend upon an ex aggeated and misdirected emotional ism as in the suffragette outbreaks in London and the agitation in this country against vivisection of ani mals. These agitators seek to prevent the largely imaginary sufferings of dumb animals used in scientific in vestigations to determine the cause and cure of diseases in spite of the fact that such experiments are di rected to the relief of more general and widespread suffering among human beings. An examination of the mental attributes displayed by movement which was made recent ly by a well-known scientist show ed that these tallied almost exactly with the- recognized- symptoms of hysteria.
