ASTORIA. OREGON:
FRIDAY.
-ArHII. 27. 1888.
ET TU, BRUTE!
The prohibition state central com
mittee has sent a challenge to Hon.
Binger Hermann to divide time with
Hon. G. M. Miller, in a canvass of the
state We hope the Republican nom
inee will not show the white feather
that is, not until toward the end.
Pacific Express.
Thus sayeth the exponent of the
Prohibition party in this state. On
the third page of the same paper it
indirectly announces itself as the
champion of morality and reform.
Morality and reform are needed ele
ments, and if the Express can
aid in the work, its services are
gladly welcomed. But in a proper
spirit of humility The Astorian ven
tures to respectfully ask the Express
if the above from its columns of the
26th inst, is to bo considered a sam
ple? Ungodly and unregenerate peo
ple are to be converted; tho duty of
the Express is believed to be to aid
in the conversion. Are sneers consid
ered most efficacious? A sneer like
the above extract quoted is believed
to be unworthy of a high moral paper
like the Express. A paper groveling
in the low pool of party politics might
be Euiltv of such contemptible prac
tice as unjust misrepresentation, but
an utterance from the serene and unini
passioned heights of such "a high
moral-toned family newspaper" should
be devoid of an implication as unde
served as it is unjust
Whether Republican or Democrat,
the place for Oregon's congressman
during a congressional session is on
the floor of the house. Tho people
elect a congressman for that purpose.
There are now and will be till after
the June election measures pending
that are of great importance to this
state. The Oregon congressman's
voice and vote nro needed just where
he is.
la doing what he is doing he is fill
ing his duty to the best of his ability.
And it ill becomes a newspaper,
even the "high moral toned" Express,
to sneer at him for doing what upon
reflection it mnst see is his duty.
There is nothing so cheap as a sneer
and it is always worth its face
value.
If congressman Hermann were to
come back here and electioneer in
Oregon for a re-election, while the
river and harbor bill, and other meas
ures were pending in congress, he
would deserve to be beaten.
And if he were to come back and
try to use his personal presence as a
means of aid in his re-election, the
Express would be the first one to
jump him and point out what a bad,
corrupt politician he was, to neglect
his duties in a mad effort to be reelected.
It ihe Express wants to help elect
Mr. Gearin to succeed Mr. Hermann
it has a perfect right to do so. If it
wants to aid Pref: Miller, n most
worthy gentleman, in his canvass, the
right is conceded.
But it should be willing to con
cede to others the same meed of sin
cerity it claims for itself.
Such contemptible flings as the ex
ample we place at the head of this
article are unworthy of the Exprets
and its avowed mission.
This is not a question of party. It
is one of justice, of manliness, of
truth.
Surely the moral perceptions of the
editor of our esteemed contemporary
are not already so blunted by contact
with the carnal minds of bad political
newspaper men as to be incapable
of perceiving this!
The demand for the division of
Dakota, admitting the south half into
the Union as a state and leaving the
north half in a territorial condition
for the present, is based upon the fact
that it is too big for ono state. The
area of tho present territory of Da
kota is as large as all of the New En
gland states and the states of New
York and New Jersey combined, and
tho south half, which it is proposed
to admit as a state, now has a larger
population than any new state ever
had before on being admitted.

A fusver named Lathrop and his
wife and three children were driven
from their home on the banks of the
Wolf river in northern Wisconsin
Thursday night by an overflow of the
river, and trusted themselves to a
hastily constructed plank raft, which
the current tore to pieces and the
whole family was drowned.
The farmers on the border of Kansas,
Texas and Indian territory have nearly
exterminated a desperate gang of
horsethieves in that section. The
farmers organized and sought the
thieves. Finding them in a deeD ra
vine a battle commenced, which ended
in the lulling of all the gang but three.
New York is trying to get up a
centennial celebration on April 30,

SOME QUESTIONS ANSWERED.
The spring immigration from Eu
rope has opened upon a scale that
leads to the opinion that the rush to
our shores this year will be unparal
leled. Every ship that reaches our
port is crowded from stem to stem,
and Castle Garden is constantly
swarming with the hopeful myriads
who have come here to improve their
condition in life. Last year the arri
vals there reached the enormous ag
gregate of 450,845, or 83,591 more than
in the preceding year, and the officials
have computed that this year's immi
gration will be over half a million. A
large proportion of the whole are al
ways bound for the northwestern
states, which still offer them cheap
land and welcome. But several states
of the southwest, especially Missis
sippi, Arkansas and Texas, are also
offering inducements which are sure
to give them a share of the new-comers
who will aid in the developing of
their abounding resources.
The total number of bills and
resolutions introduced in the senate
and house up to this date is 12,568,

has passed 425 bills and the senate
