The newt oj the world, freih every morning at your brealfatt table, it what you can find in the Attorian. It hold, the exclueke telegraphio franchiie, and itt tervice U improving daily. A well-known resident of this city has taken the trouble to' send to the Ban Francisco Examiner a long-winded series of statements all purporting to show why It Is that Astoria has not as yet any railroad connections. He man ages to give every reason but the right one, and choose to ' Ignore the fact, that but for the selfish greed and baby ish Jealousy of himself and a few dozen of his friends, we would have had a railroad long ago, The small number of really lnfluea tlal men who have vlslteM this clty- men like Dickinson and Hill, who have It In their power to carry out their promises, have been absolutely sick ened and scared away from any at tempt at a deal by the stupidity of the parties with whom they tried to do business. 0 ' ' The question of subsidy arises. At once these people see themselves poor, Innocent victims of railroad corpora tloris whose only Idea Is to rob and & spoil them of property. They put on a new air. They are about to be mill ionaires, and land that is not worth more than the timber on it they see in the dim future quoted at thousands of dollars per acre.' They hang on to it accordingly. And then when thelt conduct has choked off every man who means business, they- once more become the antique mossbacks of prehistoric times, subsldo Into their coat collars, and whine from morning till night about the world In general and "hard times" In particular. If by some merciful dispensation ol providence these blind fools can be en ubled to see more than three yards be yond their noses, there may be some hope for a railroad. . But It is a very shadowy proposition, and matters look now as It we will be compelled to cling on In the same old way until this unique race is extinct. The "green goods" Industry has not been attended with any fatality, ob far as any records go, since Holland, the little Texan, shot and killed Tom Davis, the big crook, and alleged coun terfeit money dealer, some years ago in New York, until the Incident et Pokeepsle, In which George Appo, the half-breed Chinese crook, who attempt ed to swindle two South Carolina rus tics, was shot by one of them. The , man who did the shooting, and who gave his name aa Ira Hogshead, Is now in Pokeepsle Jail. A curious feature of these swindles is that the would-be purchaser of al leged counterfeit money, "which it Is Impossible to tell from genuine." come from the South and Southwest. The game Is old, very -old, and the papers have teemed with Instances of It for years past; yet victims are still gath ered In. The men who come here with the Idea of getting something for nothing generally get in to some dls- For the Next Thirty Dajs, To meet imperative demands, I will offer at such low prices on install ments, with easy payments, that graceful scrape, which exposco their names and identity to the public, and very frequently loses their money and othor personal property. In their little venture's. Yet atlll they come.'. '. , Perhaps they cqme from 'regions where the newspaper ' docs not circu late, and so arc ignorant of what a hopeless quest they are on, The fun ny thing about It la that they Imagine they, are unknown, while the fact' is the frequency with which they ap pear has made their type a familiar one to the police, who can, and usually do, "spot" them very soon after their appearance in public ' Since these poor fools never read the papers, cannot some means be tak en to warn' them of the folly.as veil as the criminality, of their attempts to get rich by taking unfair advantage of their neighbors? Why can't clergy men in these benighted regions take up the subject, and give a general, Im personal warning? Of course, It is-im- poilble that the moral side of the question would not appeal to their na tures, and perhaps Is most likely, they consider themselves smart enough to outwit the New York thieves, not knowing how many have failed. In the mean time the oftener the dis appointed seeker after illicit wealth shootes his tempter even to the death, the better It will be. Further than this the men who da the shooting should receive a premium on .every crook whom they place in this condi tion. But, In order to make one evil correct the other, the authorities of the city where the shooting takes place should be required to ascertain cor rectly the proper address of the would-be purchaser of green goods, and then, by arrangement with the of ficials of, their home, cause a' state ment of the fase to bo published, where and In such manner as will be certain to fix the attention of their neighbors upon them. If the latter do not make them feci sorry and "tired" it will be strange. We knew it. We felt It In our bones. The Portland X'eBrai1' no sooner gets on top of the heap than it begins, with all its majesty and power at its back, to trample the life out of the re publican party. Republicans, listen to this, and then let the Iron sink into your souls and turn democrats: "There is no use in denying the feel ing so generally prevalent' that the re publican party, as a power dies today. This Is not a democratic claim, a par tisan shout of victory, but a sincere ex pression of truth that is asserting It self on all skies. The tone of the re publican press, the Interviews with re publican leaders, and the remarks of men- of all parties have an undercur rent of sentiment to this effect. This Idea fdmply will not be downed. To day the peoplo of the United States, .at a result of a majority vote cast sev eral months ago, do formally bid the republican party a cheerful good-bye." The Jig's up. It's all over. There't nothing left for us to do now. but to fo to Hawaii and start a female Kana ka Frances Folsom Kalulanl republi can club. "Ex-Presldent Harrison," sounds too long and too awakward. Henceforth when we refer to him he should be known as "General" Harrison, the name he bore before he was elected to the presidency, and the name he has done so' much to honor. Under the shadow of his ."grandfather's hat" he possibly brought himself Into notice, but his own prowess and work have utterly repudiated the Idea that the glamor of illustrious ancestry has been responslple for his success. So "Qeneral Harrison" let It be. The Roseburg Review, after a Billy tirade againBt the repeal of the mort gage tax law, says In another portion of Its editorial columns: "Roseburg needs a board of trade or chamber of commerce very badly." We should say so. Ex-Mayor Grant, of New York, huf become president of an accident In surance company. His experience as a member of Tammany should ' have made him an expert on accidents. The late General Beauregard left a fortune of 12,000,000, but the ineffuca ble lottery stain Is on It all. , The, city charter came home yester day.

While the walks, in the Public Garden were crowded yesterday afternoon about 4.30 o'clock, people Dear the. entrance gates at the cornet of Beacon and Charles streets were horrified to see a man suddenly plunge knife repeatedly into his throat and fail to the ground,-. W hile waiting for a conveyance an officer questioned the would-be suicide, who was about 60 years of age, as to his name, address, aiW reason for wishing to end his life, but the man steadfastly refused to give any infor mation regarding himself. lie was taken to the' Massachusetts General Hospital and surgical attendance given him. Although weHk from loss of blood it is probable he will recover. About 0 o'clock last night a hospital attendant got a little information from him'. He said, his name was Samuel D -, and that he catne some weeks ago from New Brunswick. The lost few days Aii head hat felt queer, and he has been wan de rl ng about the city , not k now ing w h ich way to turn. What impelled him to commit his rash act he was unable to say. . The above is the familiar but terrible, story of the results of mental derangement caused by overstrain pt the nervous system. People who have diainest, headache or back ache, or who are troubled with melancholy or despondent feelings, are already well on the road which leads to insanity and suicide.
