fzi She 3aUtf SUiomnt. ASTOEIA. OREGON: WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 11. 1885 POSSIBLE COMPLICATIONS. Ix reference to Secretary Whit ney's order sending the Tennessee and Galena to the isthmus of Panama, the Washington Star says that it is inferred that he is anxious to prevent another out break similar to that of last spring, which will endanger isthmus tran sit, rendering this government lia ble for damage, and quotes a naval officer as saying: "We have not received a bill for the burning of Aspinwall yet, but it will be along this winter, and there will be quite a howl raised. Damages to the ex tent of a good many million dollars were caused by the burning of As jjinwall, and it looks very much as if the government would be com pelled to foot the bill. We guar anteed to keep transit open. Co lombia could not do it, and in the event of its failure the responsi bility rested upon our shoulders. We opened transit, but before that was done Aspinwall was burned, and millions of dollars worth of property was destroyed. The people who suffered will expect remuneration, and as said, will send a bill to the United States." . A Washington special says: The sudden ordering of Admiral Jouett to the isthmus of Panama is the sole topic of conversation in naval circles. It is said that the people of Aspinwall have preferred claims aggregating between 7, 000.000 and 8,000,000, which will be presented to congress for pay ment. This is a claim for prop erty destroyed during the late troubles, and for vhich,itis alleged, this government is responsible. Admiral Jouett's mission is in con nection with this matter. The Fresno, Cal., Jlejmblican thinks that the newspaper of this day is an American institution that has come to stay; that it is an edu cator and all that. So it is. It will stay so long as it is true to the theory of its mission. But there is a great deal in its present practice that in the eternal justice of the ages should condemn it; things that must be eliminated from 'LZlfvT T b pnbn!.SIGH OF THE GOLDEN SHOE. educator, l'or instance: it must cease to be a vehicle for persona! ' TODBEUST "FT TrTSTm assault as a substitute for reason, ' thought and fact. An old lawyer ' said to a young one, "When you have a bad case, abuse the oppos. ing counsel." That is advice that is altogether too readily adopted by the modern newspaper. Take the example oi the Cincinnati En quirer for instance. It was made the medium for a personal assault by Mr. McLean upon Mr. Hal stead, of the Commercial Gazette. It is not too much to say that that affair had a direct influence upon the recent Ohio election, disgust ing self-respecting men and re sulting in votes :tdvre to the party representivl tif th- En quirer. The very Tact that newspaper ir an ihmator the em- phasizes the iuci-siiy for the root ing out utli-rlv f u. personal phases of journalism. (' :uinued, its influence tends to vittare pub lic tastes and to lower tis stand ard of an influence that should be actuated by principle alone, and that cannot afford to move upon any low levels. The Republican reflects thit sentiment when it says, because the press is a public influence both reflecting and molding public sentiment, "it be comes apparent to every thinking mind that the morale of the news paper should be of a pure type and reach a high standard. Vi cious and depraved minds, giving vent to vicious and depraved thought, but engender and foster a moral leprosy that is evil and only evil in its tendency." The Democratic state central committee met in Portland last Saturday. The topic of discus sion was the action of the gover nor in convening the legislature in special session. The commit- tee passed a series of resolutions declaring that there was no occa sion for such convention, de nouncing it as an oppressive abuse of public office, asking that the Republican party be held re sponsible, recording the wisdom and sagacity of the party repre sentatives at the late session, and viewing with alarm the alleged agency of "organized capital" in the calling of the special legislat ive session. The present legislature has the opportunity to elect a United States senator who will zealously work for the material interest of the state, for a free river, for the good of the people. We refer to John H. Mitchell. He has made ene mies; what man of ability lives that has not. No one, nut those destitute of ability, is exempt from ill will on the part of some one. But personal' antagonism may be carried too far and defeat the ob ject that was intended to be gained. Thirty-five states and territo ries are now represented by ex hibits at the exposition which opens at New Orleans November 10th. It is said that all available space has been spoken for, and that the exhibits from Europe and elsewhere will be extensive. The last spike of the California Southern railroad was driven last Monday at Cajon pass, San Diego Co., Cal. This gives the Atlantic Sc Pacific railroad through connec tion to the Pacific coast, with San Diego as its terminus. 3IAKR1ED. Ill Astoria, .Nov. 10th, by llev. Dr. Garner, Ttobert L.
