THE HOODLUM. AH hoodlums are boys, but all boys are not hoodlums. The girl as a hoodlum, pure and simple, is so rare as toake a class all by herself, when she rarely appears in the role. And all boy-hoodlums are not of the gen-Im-h and substance: they are often made so by contact example, and the general Krense of the streets. "Boys will be t. jmni that goes far m extenuation of some of the worst of their pranks and it is only when they Wmr vicious and devilish that they begin to wear the style and title as thrmpb it belonged to them. Astoria has the genns, in plenty. She has no more, no less, tnan De- longs to her. perhaps, but she has him. alright; he is causing her all the trouble that is to be expected ot mm The hoodlum is a ."hard and fast nmnnsition always: hard is nails and fast as he dare be; he smokes and chews and drinks and fights, upon the assumption that he is one of the nrecorious men of the hour, a man who has reached his estate by a short rut of vice and bad-habit usually at trihotable to the grown man. The born hoodlum is a State charge from ft,, fconr of his birth, and usually lands under the ban before he grad nates into the Penitentiary; he is the incorrigible child, the vicious youth, the daaeerous man; but the hoodlum that ismade by the carelessness of his owp people, is quite another af fair; like his natural prototype he is not to blame for his lapses altogether the first responsibility rests with the parents who fail in their cardinal duty and give him his head ana taciuy nr him on his course and then rally to his defense when he has made himself' so notoriously bad as to in voke the law for the protection of society he preys upon. easy it is to tail into me license leewav of wrong-doing; every man remembers the hours when he was 3 reoroach to himself and his family of the risks he ran, and the escapes he made, and those he did not make.

SIMON'S NOMINATION. While the matter of Senator Sim on's nomination for the mayoralty of Portland, is primarily, a purely local matter there, it has an effect out in the State,' that means much, if it is as sienificant as most of us hope . . . 1. is: It is taken, nere. ana ncan, everywhere else, as the first definite sign of the merging Republican m tirest m ureeon; inc ciuiwi hich irave him the nomination by such oronounced lead, is the largest grouping of Republicans in any one field of the State, and the source whence such things are first looked for; and if this is the real inspiration behind it, every man in the party may be grateful to the Senator for permitting the use of his name for the office, upon the two-fold hypat ehesis. that he will make a dignified, well-poised, able mayor for the metropolis, and that was fortun ate enough to inspire the move ment that every honest Republican in Oregon has looked and longed for Lpon CARRIES FIVE PEOPLE ON THE SIXTY-FOOT FLU nub ALL SAFE.

Uta May 10. What came near being a most serious automobile accident happened jester day in Parley's Canyon when a big touring car ran off the roadway and down a sixty foot embarkmcnt, throwing the live occupants from the machine to the ground. I' our were somewhat injured but ( the tilth oc cupant escaped without a scratch. The oartv consisted of m. t rooks and wife, C. C Lovejoy and wife and ' Carl Larson, the driver. The road at ! the point where the accident occured i rather narrow and in order to, avoid running too close to the edge , of the embarkment, Larson says he . kept his machine near the farther side of the road. The brush and willow were thick at this point and the women were being constantly brushed in the face by the limbs. One willow struck Mrs. Lovejoy in the face. Larson thought she was injured and as he turned his head to see. the machine struck a large boul der in the roadway, causing tt to sheer to one side and run off the embankment, dropping almost sixty feet. The machine in dropping turn ed completely over three times bu! the occupant were not thrown out until the auto turned the third time. SHOULD PRESENT BILL. CHICAGO. May 10.-Rev. D. t. Vaughnn who has been delivering a .cries of talks on the "Ideal family" believes an itemined account of the cost of rearing a boy should be pre served and presented to him.

WHY ASTORIA? Will someone, (outside of Portland of course) please tell us why Astoria. a citv of 15.000 people, at the mout! of the great Columbia river; at the western terminus of two great trans continental railway systems; with splendid maritime facilities of a'l sorts: at the foot of a thousand- mile. down-grade-water level haul, should be the only port and point on the Pacific coast without tie urr- common-point rate on the grain of the northwest? , We doubt whether the question will be deemed worth answering, so plain, so palpable, so logical, is the affirmative nature of the c?.se. But we ask it. just to emphasize the qual ity of resistance Portland is framing u;i and working against it; just to show the animus that actuates the metrop olis of a State that hopes to live and flourish upon the normal tribute of the lesser towns about it, and to il lustrate the cause for the venemous fight Portland is making against As toria. There is but reason, in an tne philosophy of the hour, why we should have the rate, and that is that Portland will lose the Columbia river shipping. Nothing else has ever been raised against the project; there is naught to raise, that will stand for an instant. , , But the fight is on; petition and answer arc on file at Washington; argument will ensue, and the ruling will be made. If Astoria docs not get the common-point rate, there will surely be a reason given then, that will probably go farther to reconcile us to the denial, than anything we have ever heard of yet. But we reserve the right to take even that to the supreme court, and there it. will go, for the fight of Astoria's very life, before we will cease striving for it!
