Gamblers Must Work.
The “move on” order has been
issued lor Astoria, and the gamblers'
last stand in Oregon will be of brief
duration. Gambling is a vice which
has a pernicious and blighting effect
where ever it is permitted, but the
evil is more ap|»arent in some places
than in others. It is doubtful if
there is another community in the
western world where the closing of
gambling will be attended with bet­
ter results than at Astoria. The
plea has been made tiiat the fines,
collected from the gamblers have
paid, in a large measure, the running
expences of th« city. But before
the gamblers paid these tines, they
first secured th«- money, and much
more along with it from some hard
working wealth creator in Astoria.
In no other place in the state
where these parasites of the green
cloth have essayed to ply their tin
lawful vocation have they taken as
hard-earned money as that passed
over the tables by the fisherman.
The fisherman risk their lives to
secure th«* money which swells the
coffers of the gambling harpies.
The abolution of gambling will not
only remove temptation from hun-
dreds of hard working men, who
need the money for other purposes,
and from young men just growing
and easily influenced, but it will un­
doubtedly be the means of forcing
reformation on a large number of
gamblers, who, when they find their
occupation gone, will be willing
to turn their attention to some res­
pectable method of securing a
livelihood. When Astoria is run­
ning “wide open" in the fishing sea­
son, there are more than 100 gain
biers engag«xl in fleecing the victims
As gamblers are a class of liberal
spenders, five dollars per «lay would
be a modest estimate of their daily
expenditures. Reduced to mathe­
matics, it thus appears that Astoria
in «xinsideration of a moderate
monthly fine, has permitted these
parasites to rob some of the citizens
of $500 per day, or approximately
$15,000 per month. When the li«l
drops next week these lily-fingered
drones in the industrial hive, no
longer will be permitted to rob the
men who earn the money, and it
will be placed in circulation where
it can be of more benefit. While it
is true that Oregon never had less
use for gamblers than it has at the
present time, it is equally true that
the state was never before so badly
in need of able-bodied men for all
kinds of work. The present crusade
will leave without a calling, several
hundred gamblers. Among them
there will be undoubtedly a large
number, who, in the absence of an
opportunity to rob their fellow men
may be induced to go to work, and
in time become honorable citizens.
The gambler never creates one
penny by his efforts. He simply
lives as do all parasite, off the en­
ergy and vitality of others, it is
natural to presume that he will be­
come a producer. Those who are
too lazy or dishonest to go to work
in due season will find their way to
our penal institutions. Even there
it may be better for society to sup­
port them behind the bars, than per­
mit them to levy their own toll on
the workers, and while so doing to
corrupt the morals of the young.

Somebody
Quite a lot of wool has been de­
livered at Port Orford lately to be
shipped to San Francisco purchasers
who have paid as high as 23% cents.
With such a price for wool, and f>. 4
for mutton, and $3.25 an«l $3.50 for
stock sheep it has been our liest
year for ffock masters.
A. A. Jamison was in town Mon-
day. He has been suffering of late
with rheumatism, resulting no doubt
from his exposures last winter in
teaming for the Wireless station.
1 le left here with his team this
morning for Coquille City, taking uj i
Mr. Jurgensen Sr. for examination
tor commitment to the Asylum, as
1 hopeless paralytic.
The steamer Signal, Captain Saun­
ders. left Port Orford last Friday
fternoon. for San Pedro, Cal. with
a cargo of 400,000 feet of Well-seas­
oned oak ami myrtle hard wood, by
long odds the most valuable cargo
of lumber ever shipped from South-
Western ( )regon. The parties that
own this lumber will not sell it, but
will manufacture it into furniture,
and they expect to make arrange­
ments to take a similar amount, or
more, every year from the shipping
points of Curry County, which are
the only ones on Oregon’s coast
where this quality of oak can
be obtained, as it does not grow' in
mercantile quanties.

“But suddenly a man dashed in

cried;
“Is Dr. Henry Smith here?"
“With all eyes centered upon him.
Dr. Henry Smith rose slow ly in his

“What is wanted?" he said, He

him.
