The newt of the world, freih eren morning at your breakfast table, i$ what iiou can' And in tlx Astorian. Jt holdi the excluiive telegraphio franchise, and ill service is improving daily. Mr. Wanamaker has had some ideas as postmaster general that were too far "advanced," but his career In office has been one of great usefulness. The postal business has never been bo well done, and yet the democratic press has, without cessation, poured upon him a dribble of low abuse, apparently be cause they did not want a business man to have a great public truHt. The democrats were too high tipped and gorgeous to consent to seeing a shop keeper In the cabinet. The secretary of the Interior, Noble, has also been a success, and there Is no cloud on any part of his work. lie has not been the factional or the fanatical enemy of land grants, but has shaped his course with wisdom and fairness. IIIm special work has been the preservation of forests, and he has made for him self by his enlightenment and energy on that subject, a permanent place- In history. The Harrison administration, taken as a whole, has an incomparable record for four years. The New York Evening Post gives Secretary Noble In full measure the credit due htm for his intelligence, seal courage and success in preserving forests during his administration of the interior department. There is no doubt Mr. Noble has served the country wise ly and well In this important matter Ha has feaved .forests that protect mountains that supply rivers that arc sorely needed for purposes of irriga tion; and he has established a policy ol protecton of natural resources of value , beyond estimation.' He has interfered with the profligacy of the destroyers ol forests, protecting on several occasions groves of trees with United States cavalry an incident .that la a dtstlnc' tlon. It is gratifying that Mr. Cleve land has appointed a Secretary of the interior who will carry on the good work with -equal enthusiasm and en Cannot the Portland Telegram let McKlnley alone for a little while and tell us what its party is about to do for the relief of the poorT We under stand perfectly that protection is now unconstitutional and must be abol lithed, even If there is an extra session of congress called for the express pur pose. But we have some curiosity touching reciprocity, and raw materi als (Including whisky) and paper for coinage purposes. The Telegram's mind does not seem to be aa clear aa a mountain rill on all these matter. Let its able editor clarlfly; Just aa he eluci dated the great principles of demo cracy at the ratification meeting in Portland. The timber of the lower Columbia, next to our fisheries, will be the most important factor of our future growth. In our local columns will be seen an anouncement to the effect that two For the Next Thirty Dajs, To meet imperative demands, I will offer at such low prices on install ments, with easy payments, that gentlemen representing the Interest of the World'8 Fair are asking for ex hlbiti of wood of every kind and growth. Their requests hould be re sponded to liberally and every resident of Clatsop county who is in a position to do so should collect and forward to them whatever uncommon or curious specimen of vegetable growth he is able to secure. There should be no de lay In doing this, either. A Boulangist deputy, Leon Dumon till, fought, a duel with a newspaper man. Prosper Olivier, near Paris last week, and the Boulangist deputy was wounded in the side. This untoward incident is regarded as a regrettable accident, arising from the fact that M Olivier forgot himself for the time be ing and imagined he was preparing leaded matter for the press. He will be more careful in the future not to transend the traditions of the French duel, and keep his wits about him the next time he has an affair of that kind on hand. ' This confusion of business with pleasure is not regarded favora bly in France. If Mr. Cleveland desires to know the financial views of Judge Gresham, he will find some statistics in a very small speech delivered by the Judge in behalf of Mr. Blaine in 1884. This speech, it may refresh the memory of the presi dent to recollect, was supposed to be opposed to the election of Grover Cleveland. In Justice to all parties con cerned, however, it must be said, no one thought at the time that Judge Gresham's statistical effort had deeply damaged the democracy. Still It was said to be stalwart, and was meant for magnificence. A woman in Iowa her name Is Mrs William Wilbur has, according to a dispatch from Fort Dodge, gone crazy and been sent to the asylum through hearing her delightful pastor describe hell and its torments. Mrs. Wllber was too sensitive. If somebody had asked the preacher how he came to know so much about a place preachers are never supposed to see, he might have bem "stumped," as the boys say, Where'dld he get his Information, any way? The San Jose Mercury says "The only dally newspaper on the Pacific coast that has from the first opposed the annexation of 1 la wall is the Morn Ing Astorlan, and the way things are looking now seems to prove that the sober sentiment of the country Is fast turning that way. The Jingoism dying out." The people at large will be glad to learn that the new secretary of the navy has been in congress a friend of the new navy. He Is in full possession of the confidence of the present sec retary. The new Cleveland cabinet will be physically the heaviest ever known The president, postmaster general and secretary of the Interior weigh alto gether, nearly one thousand, pounds. It has been raining ever since Cleve land started the presidential chariot, The democrats ought to put a stop to this at once. I NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS.

Astoria, Or., March 3, 1893. Attempt at Suicide. It Might Han Been Prevented. From the Boston Post. While the walks in the Public Garden were crowded yesterday afternoon about 4.30 o'clock, people near the entrance gates at the corner of Jieacon and Charles streets were horrided to see a man Buddenlv plunue a kuifo repeatedly into his throat aud fall to me grottnu.' W hile waiting for a conveyance an officer questioned the would-be suicide, who was about CO years of age, as to his name, address, and reason for wishing to end his life, but the man steadfastly refused to give any infor mation regarding himself. He was tuken lo the Massachusetts General Hospital and surgical attendance given him. Although weak from loss of blood it is probable he will recover. About 9 o'clock lust night a hospital attendant got a little information from him. He said his name was Samuel D , and that ho cauie some weeks sgo from New Brunswick, The last few days hi head hat felt queer, and he has been wan dering about the city, not knowing which way to turn. What impelled him to commit his rush act lie was unuble to say. -' The above is the familiar but terrible story of the results of mental derancement caused by overstrain of the nervous system. I eople who have diaineu. headache or back ache, or who sre troubled with melancholy or despondent feelings, lire already well on the road which leads to inmnily and suicide.
