laying their rails.
The matter came op for a vote in
the city council last Wednesday night.
Everything seemed to De "fixed," al
though a larfje attendance of resi
dents wan on hand hoping for the
unexpected to break. It did. J. K.
Outes, a political leader of Seaside,
was on ha Lid complacently awaiting a
vote on -tlie subject.
H did not count on opposition,
however, and was considerably sur
prised when Dan J Moore, who runs
the Moore hotel, and H. V. Thompson,
both members of the council, rose to
their feet ' and made vigorous pro
testa. The large gallery applauded
Messrs. Mooru and Thompson to the
echo and then after an evening spent
In perfervld oratory the council voted
and found it was deadlocked. The
matter was deferred until this week.
In the meantime Oates became
slightly peeved. This was further ag
gravated vhen his proposals ami wisnes
on the establishment of a center line
on Bridge street were voted down, the
council deciding upon a center line
that was not in accordance with his
wishes. Twice defeated n one nlaht.
Oates was so angry thai he attacked
one councilman and a plain citizen
after the meeting. They were sep
arated before any blood was shed.
In the meantime Seaside Is wonder-
Ing whether the railroad company or
the people are coming out second best.
A petition containing 117 names was
filed wiUi the city auditor some time
fK0 protesting against the extension
of time to the ral'road.

' (Special to Tbe Journal.)
San Francisco, Cal., Jan. 20. The
Erltish consulate and local agents for
the owners of the British full rigged
ship Philadelphia were debating today
whether or not to prosecute tbe mem
bers of tbe vessel's crew for mutiny
before permitting, It to proceed on its
voyage to Queenstown, Ireland, whith
er it was bound from the Columbia
river when the Bailors overpowered
Captain Henry Lawrence, locked him
in bis cabin and forced First Mate S.
N. Capon to navigate It Into Baa Fran
The ostensible ground for the men's
behavior was an accident to the steer
ing gear, which tbe men contended
made the ship unsea worthy; but ex
perts who examined It said the cap
tain bad repaired it so effectively that
the voyage might have been finished
in perfect safety.
Besides nearly strangling Captain
Lawrenoe In overpowering him, the
crew bunked, too, in the officers' quar
ters until port was made, refused the
mate's orders and would have made
him take them back to the Columbia
river if bead winds had not delayed
them so much that they consented
finally to let him steer for San Fran
cisco instead.
When Pilot Alex Swanson went on
beard last night he found two sailors
with drawn revolvers on guard at the
captain's door.
Port authorities said the case was
one of the most flagrant in their ex
perience, and thought the mutineers
should be made examples of. but Cap
tain Lawrence was unwilling to prose-
cuts them on account of tne delay it
would Involve.
Members of the Philadelphia's crew
signed on at this port are: F. Alaan-
tara, Filipino, cook; J. KObin, l. .uoos.

Feel Out of Sorts?
It's a good idea to
look for the cause!
One common, but often unsuspected cause is coffee-drinking. Yet some per
sons seem able to get along with coffee at least for a time. But when head
achy, bilious days come; breakfast or some other meal doesn't taste .good; and
the day's work goes wrong. (Ever feel that way?) then it's time to find out
for sure if coffee is causing the trouble in your case.
There's a subtle, poisonous drug, "caffeine," in coffee that interferes with the
normal functions of tody, brain and nerves, and has a lot to do with one's com
fort and progress.
Suppose for a test you try the simple expedient of quitting coffee and using

but is absolutely free from caffeine or any other drug.
After ten days or two weeks you will be able to decide whether to go back
to coffee troubles, or stick to Postum and peace and comfort.
Regular Pcwtum must be well boiled.
Instant Postum doesn't require boiling, but is prepared instantly by stirring
a level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water and adding ream and sugar

It fchouid be one of the main -objects

Problem of HoUUng Companies.
"Other questions remain which need
thoughtful and practical treatment.
Enterprises, in these modern days of
great individual fortunes, oftentimes
interlock, not by being under control
of the same directors, but by the fact
that the greater part of the corporate
lock Is owned by a single person or
group of persons, who in some way
are intimately related in interest We
are agreed, 1 take it, that holding com
panies should be prohibited, but what
of controlling private ownership of in
dividuals or actually cooperative
groups of individuals? Shall private
owners of capital stock be suffered
to be themselves, In effect, holding
companies? We do not wish. I sup
pose, to forbid the purchase of stocks
by any person who pleases to buy
them in such Quantities as he can
afford, or in any way arbitrarily limit
the sale of stocks to bona fide pur
chasers. Shall we require owners,
when the voting power in several com
panies which ought to be independent
woulo constitute aotual control, make
tbem elect in which of them they shall
exorcise the rlsht to vote? This ques
tion, I venture for your consideration.
"Not only do many combinations in
the industrial world work an injustice
