When economy runs into downright stupidity It Is time to seriously consid er whether we cannot have too much of a good thing. At the meeting of the city council last night there was put forth one of the most insane proposi tions it has ever been our lot to hear. The gem came In a committee report, and it was to the effect that, if the Telephone Company didn't choose to give the city Its telephones free, all the Instruments except that In No 2's engine house should be thrown out and discontinued. After some discussion the matter was referred to the com mittee on fire and water. Let the gen tlemen forming that committee deal with It very promptly and send it back to the council with the statement that a more absurd Idea was never prornul gated. Here are men who in the In terests of what they choose to term .'eoonomF,"" would expoms Astoria to the risk of the loss of thousands of dol lars for the purpose of saving t6 per month, the cost of two telephones. We do not believe that the council men who advocated this measure gavt it the least consideration. They are or all occasions level-headed and sensible, and it Is the strangest thing Imagln able that In a matter of such vital Im portance they should have so signal); failed to rise to a sense of their public duty. We in Oregon are now beginning tr see the spread of an old Eastern craze Of all the fools, young or old, who plaj their part upon the earth, the stage struck young woman la by fur the worst. The sentimental female whe worships a hero in a curly wig and a property uniform, while not being ablt to appreciate the unobtruslvencss of real life, is a fool of ordinary type Many people prefer shams to reality. The young woman who gives up a good home to yield to the wild desire to go upon the stage, to become anything from a tray carrier or a high kicker to a great tragedy actress, is an extraor dlnary fool. Tet, parldoxlcal as it may seem, there "are many luch. In cory trant with the great army of stage struck girls who are yearly making lunatics of themselves In one way and another, Is the choice of a great actress who left the footlights In the very le nlth of her career and settled down in the obscurity of a happy home. She cannot be drawn from her retirement, fur she has tried both lives and knows which Is best. The New York Sun discusses at some . .a . m r.. . o... n . which it regards as a step of great Im portance. It adds nothing to what has been time and again urged by the papers published on the Sound, for in deed there was nothing to add. The For the Next Thirty Days, To meet imperative demands, I will offer at such low prices 6n install ments, with easy payments, that defense of the Sound (9 a matter of great concern, that Is, unless wo are prepared to act on the theory that we need no defenses at all. There has been a great deal of talk as to the advantage of Hawaii as an outpost to protect this coast, but we. fancy that Its value largely exists in the imagination of the writers who tell about It. In the event of a war with England, says the Seattle Telegraph, of what value would fortifications and a naval station on Hawaii be to us here on the Sound? The British fleet would sail down from Esqulmalt and we could do absolutely nothing to keep it from taking possession of the whole Sound country, and the western termini of several transcontinental railways. In the event of war with some other for eign power Hawaii would not be of much greater value than in that Just supposed. We hope that we will never need fortifications against any power, but unless we are banking on the early dawn of the mlllenlum, or are to adopt a policy of non-resistance, It Is time that Puget Sound was rendered Im pregnable to any foe. It would be an easy thing to make It bo. It b Interesting to read the following essay, a copy of which was obtained from Miss Cook, now living at Fay ettevllle, N. T.,: Orover Cleveland's teacher In 1849. How little the old lady dreamt when she read the lad's compo sition that he would be the honored president of the United States. The Importance of Time. (Essay of Orover Cleveland, aged nine.) Time Is divided Into seconds minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years and cen- turys. If we expect to become great and good men and be respected and es temed by our friends we must Improve our time when we are young. George Washington improved his time when he was a boy, and he was not sorry when he wns at the head of a large army fighting for his country. A great many of our great men were poor and had but small means of obtaining an education but by Improving their time when they were young and in School they obtained their high standing Jack son was a poor boy but he was placed In school and by improving his time he found himself a president of the United States guiding and directing a power ful nation. If we wish to become great and UBeful In the world, we must Im prove our time in school. S. G. CLEVELAND. The Marlon County Democrat says: "Every once In a while some repub lican newspaper speaks of the demo cratic party being dissatisfied with this or that action of President Cleveland. The truth Is that the people, the great masses of parties, have unlimited con fidence In the Judgement, sincerity and patriotism of the president." The truth Is nothing of the sort. The truth Is that Mr. Cleveland has his party by the nose. He Is not a demo crat whoBe name is Cleveland. He Is first of all a Cleveland democrat. The privations of the democracy are terrible. First, Gresham. Second, BIs aell. Third, Hoke Smith and the rest of the cabinet. Fourth, no ex-ofllce holders need apply. Fifth, country ed itors have no right to postofflces. Sixth, free slver coinage postponed. Seventh, wild-cat banking deferred. Eighth, tariff robbery to be continued. Ninth, reciprocity goes on consuming the vi tals of the populace. Tenth, the sum of all no relief for anybody. Is this a democratic administration? Mr Cleveland may be making a mis take in not muzzling the press with a few foreign missions. Wasting those pleasant places on old lawyers, when there are qualified editors ready to stand unabashed before kings or Pana ma princes, Is political profligacy. If arrangements can be made with the great and only Dr. Jenkins, New York's royal health officer, to let the German Emperor in, we believe he might take a run over to see the World's Fair at Chicago. William would draw immensely. The calmness of the New York World as an administrative organ has settled Into a froien smile. There Is sorrow on let somewhere.
