An honest and complete telegraphic re port givei a newspaper a right and title to the name. The newt of the world, freth every morning at your breakfast table, it what you can find in the' Attorian. " Jt hold the exclusive telegraphio franchise, and ilt service it improving daily. In another column will be found the report of the surveyor of the water commission, and the determination of that body to act on its suggestions without loss of time. The new project has been very carefully considered from every standpoint, and we have no doubt that the publlo will note with satisfaction the fact that the commis sioners are doing their work well, and bringing us nearer to the possession of a first class water system. The vile abuse that has been heaped on these gentlemen unsparingly has not turned them an Inch from the duty they owed to their fellow citizens. It Is credit able alike to their honor and their common sense, that they have gone their own gait, without regard to the cowardly attacks to which they have been subjected. Says the Marlon county Democrat: "The reason given by the Statesman and President Fulton for the abolish ment of the board of charities and corrections, Is that It was a "nosing" board. In other words It sought to do Its duty. The. same reason would abolsh grand Juries and would reflect only upon Its advocates." Does the Democrat then shudder so terribly at the thought of the abolition of the grand Jury system T Several states of the Union have decided tc have done with that farcical Imitation of Justice, and It Is about time that Oregon follow their example. The the ory Is all right, but as long as grand Juries are to be chosen from among men and not angels, Its workings will be utterly unreliable. "Hope springs eternal In the human breast." Listen to the Portland Dis patch: Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle Is said to have under consideration some financial propositions, to be sub mitted to Congress, which will form . the basis of an agreement between Congress and the Executive on the financial problem. ' The time Is ripe for the complete reorganisation of our financial system. Capable of acute perception and holding ' broad views on this question1, Secretary Carlllse will grapple with It in a masterful manner and the hope Is that his pro potted - disposition pt It . may be so clear and comprehensive that all sides will yield their differences and pull together for the common good. There never 'wan a Rime, when a master mind was In greater demand to give proper shape to any great national question than la now required to es tablish a perfect financial system. If our present secretary proves himself equal the occasion, that name, which will go down In history as greater than a Hamilton, a Chase or a' Sherman, will be the name of Carlisle." When Is he going to start? The first thing he should do, with all due def erence to Mr. Cleveland, the Dispatch and Providence, Is to summon the For the Next Thirty Days, To meet imperative demands, I xi offer at such low prices on install ments, with easy payments, that most profound of lawyers, one or many, and to tell him or them that the authority Is wanted for the treasury to sell superfluous silver, to exert execu tive ability to the utmost and to teach Europe that we are not silver suppli ants. We have about 6000 tons of silver on hand that we might, could, and should sell to Europe. A thousand tons by each of the two great steam ers bearing the American flag 2000 tons a month thrown on the London market would, we are sure, be of ef ficacy In educating Europe to take a very serious part In .the next Interna tional silver conference. The new tramcar service from Port' land to Oregon City has already begun to brighten up the little town by the beautiful falls, and the Enterprise re fleets the movement In Its neat col umns. We are glad to see our sister cities rising one after the other out of the slough of Despond Into the sun shine of prosperity, and our eyes are straining for the day, we believe not far distant, when Astoria will wake from her sleep and become the envy of them all. Reports continue to reach us In our telegrams of the devastation and mis ery caused by the Boston Are. The shocking loss of life and terrible des truction of property are forcible re minders that, with all the improve merits and Inventions of the present agd, no preventltlve for such destruc tive conflagrations has been devised. It Is a humiliating fact that the loss of property by fire Is greater' today than It has ever been before. The second competition of our school series ended yesterday, and the result will be found In another column. We are glad that these little contests are fulfilling the mission we Intended them to perform, and that they are arousing a widespread Interest throughout the district. Tuesday morning's paper will contain our third series of questions. The latest reports from San Fran cisco are to the effect that the organ ized shipowners are renewing their ef forts to Win the fight which (they started some months ago against the Seamen's Union. Several owners, It Is claimed, who refused at first to Join the Shipbuilders' and Shipowners' Associa tion, are now recognized members, and are taking an active part In the fight against the seamen. Every day non union crews are being shipped, and al though some trouble Is being experi enced with these men, many of whom are not good seamen, the ship owners say they are willing to give them em ployment rather than ship union sea men, The shipowners claim that they have many reasons for not wanting men who belong to the union. Never theless, the latter report that their prospects of winning the fight are fav orable. They feel that they are bat telling In the Interests of a good cause xnd believe that In the end they will some out victorious. A union man said yesterday: "I see that, according to newspaper reports, the shipowners my they don't want us because of our iemand for standard salaries and first loss food while on board. It's a fact that we want good Salaries and good food, and the shipowners are In a po sition to very readily accede to our de mands If they so desired." Personal Mention. Walter C.
