THE SAME OLD STOUT.
The Union Pacific has followed the
Northern Pacific. It Is in the hands of
the receiver. That seems to be the
fate reserved for all railroads built In
whole or in part by public money. They
furnish a striking contrast to all other
railways. The tendency of the for
ir.er Is toward bankruptcy, while all
those who have anything to do with
the construction or management be
come millionaires. The railroads on
the other hand built by private cap
ltal, as a rulo go on prospering. All
those who have Interests in them do
fnlrly well. Very rich men are not
made by them, but stockholders and
bondholders have no reason to com
plain. Theio peculiar results are de
serving of the closest investigation.
They constitute a new and somewhat
surprising chapter In what Is called
railroading.
The people nave Ibeen emphctlcully
benten with the slick that they tliem
Lelves cut and hundad over to their
beneficiaries. To subsldlzo' a railroad
in the United States is to provide a
ftiechanlurn for the plunder of the peo
ple who give away or loan money.
Trobably the flrst notion of the subsi
dized railroad was, by their outra
geous actions, to make the people li
quidate their debt. But, if any idea
of that kind waa entertained, it was
Boon abandoned for the method which
has -been so long In vogue, numely, to
run tho road Into hopeless bankruptcy,
the managers gathering In the good
things as they went along, and each
tiny growing more and more marvel
ously rich.
We have In this circumstance, the
explanation of the paradox that bank
rupt railroads, especially if subsidized,
sro productive In a most remarkable
manner of millionaires. These enter
prises, which are In themselves few
and struggling, produce plutocrats
In great abundance because they
i
are plundered us they go ulong
for their bencvU. Some opera'
tor j In private nilroads have been
able to fleece their stockholders.' Kut
lit most coned the policy of prlvute
railroads has been 'tc build them'
solves up and make handsome returns
to those who Invested their money In
them. The prime object of the aubtddl
sed railroads, on the other hand, has
always been to get rid of the debt to
the government, and, as that could be
boat accomplished by wrecking the
railroads, the manners have gone
along In that plcasnnt work ; with
great spirit, seeing that one of tho
collRhMul effect was the groat enrich
tnont of themselves. '
It Isn't so much how you pay for
ndveitUlng. It's what you got for
what you pay, Advertising space In
any respectable newspaper Is nieiflnuv
dlae, and must be reckoned fa a Imrrvl
of flour or as yard of calico. No
inponslblo .merchant Wls flour or
O'Hco for Uss thun Its value. No good
newspaper peddles advertising, space
for leu than It la worth to Itself, or
to the advertiser. 1
What do you think of our argument?
Mr. Chamberlain, the leader of the
opposition to Gladstone, says of the
Home Rule bill:
"By the necessity of the case It can
not como up before rest year at the
curliest. It cannot be brought on till
thou in any caae, and perhaps not
V i; !lin. Whenever It comes up It
la (Tolug to meet again the same fate
lr. has already met. Whatever In
formation you may receive through the
Xity prtlsun correepondence that la
i .mr;;iy avnt from England to the
I'Mted stutes. you may rely upon It
t!::tt the Gladntonlnnsr will not come
luck Into r-'wer again. As soon as
tJ-.rv n:T"! to t rr!e their fate Is
rrrvlcd We shall wipe out the Glad
bu.n'iiin maji-rlty completely at the
r.!- t fir nrral cli-clian.
The registration of opponents of the
Gladstone policy In London shows, it
is said, a gain on the average of five
hundred in each district for the con
servatives. Mr. Chamberlain says of
Mr. Gladstone: .
Mr. Gladstone is very strong and
enjoys excellent health. He was
stronger at the close of the season
than he was at the beglnlng. He is
a wonderful man, and was never bet
ter Intellectually."
The people of Astoria do not need
to be told that during the coming win
ter there "will be much J destitution
In this city. Every winter we see more
or less of it, but at a time of business
depression like this has been, the dis
tress Is far greater and more wide
spread than ordinarily. We are sorry
to see that the public are not res
ponding as liberally as they might to
the appeal to the W. C. T. U. made In
this paper some time ago.
Give heartily. No housekeeper who
sits by her well filled dinner table at
night warmed by the glow of her stove
fire, should hesitate for a moment to
give of her bounty some small share,
for the sustenance of some other wo
man who Is sick and 111 for want of
nourishment. Human kindness should
be plentiful enough In Astoria to en
sure to many a poor family a com
fortable winter.
Yesterday's Oregonlan says: "Mayc
Mason has Informed tho members of
the council that it will be lmposelbl
for him to go to San Francisco to at'
tend the launch of the battleship Or
egon on the 20th! Inst The large
amount of public business requiring
his dally attention, in conjunction with
his private business, will preclude him
from taking the trip, much as he
would like to do so. The members of
the council were unable to decide what
action to take in the matter, and will
hold a meeting this afternoon to con
slder the question. It Is hardly prob-
able that they' will make up their
minds to attend the launch in a body
but perhaps a delegation may go."-
The Astoria city council should bo
represented at the launching, as well
as the Astoria chamber of commerce.
Ex-President Harrison, said In Chi
cago the other day:
"We are sowing the seed of discord
In the breaking away from the national
laws. The people of this country will
not submit to choice of their officials
hy the dice box or the juggler's hat
Above all this, we must have pure
elections. ,
"I am not partial to any particular
federal election law except that the law
should provide for some judicial meth
od of Inquiry."
Winter Is coming, and still business
Is picking up a little, and our adver
tisers are getting more aggressive
maybe that is why business Is pick
Ing up. One hundred and ninety one

The army of our advertisers is
swelling every day.
Don't forget your poorer neighbors.
What good will your abundance do
you, unless you share It with the
needy? A little flour, a hundred bread
tickets, a pound of tea, or sugar
these are small things but they will
make you happier If you give them,
Poverty only fears one foe. Charity is
Its name.

THE FATHER OF MANY ILLS.
Constipation leads to a multitude of
physical troubles. It is generally the
result of carelessness or indifference to
the simplest rule of health'. Eugene
McKay, of Brantford, Ont., writes:
"I had for several years been a suf
ferer from constipation, had taken a
great many dlffedent remedies, some
of which did me good for a time, but
only for a time, then my trouble came
back worse than ever. I was Induced
by a friends, whom Brandredth's Pills
had benefitted, to try them. Took two
each nlht for a week, then one every
nlfiht for about six weeks. Since that
time I have not experienced the slight
est difficulty whatever, and my bowels
move regularly every day. I believe
frmly that for sluggishness of the
bowcla and biliousness Brandreth's
Pills are far superior to any other.
A SAFFRON COLORED INDEX.
Of the condition of a bilious stomach
and eluggglsh liver is the human coun
tenance. Not only the skin, but. the
ey oalls, are tinged with the yellow
hue when tho bile gets Into the blood.
Besdles this, sick headache ensues, the
tongue becomes furred, pains are felt
in the liver and through the right
shoulder blade, and dizziness Is exper
ienced upon rising from a sitting or
recumbent posture by the bilious indi
vidual. For these and other indication
of biliousness, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters is the sovereign remedy. It is also
efficacious In chills and fever, dumb
ague, ague cake. Inactivity of the kid
neys, and bladder, rheumatism and
i-ervousness. It stimulates, restores di
gestion, and sleep, and tends greatly
to mitigate the Infirmities of age.

THE OPEN SWITCH.
A ESTABL1SUED SAFEGUARD.
Anybody who tiavels by cars knows what
is meant by "an open switch." It is the
terror of railroad men, and the dread of the
traveler. Hi .iwims killed, horribly man
gled or maimed for life are numbered by
the score each year.
Yet even the dreaded "open switch" is not
so widely fatal as is a certain disease, which,
without ceasing its activity for an instant, is
duify lining hundreds ot graves.
What is that terrible ailment? you ask
It is Heart Disease I " But." you reply, con
fidently, "I haven't any heart disease my

Dr. Franklin Miles, of Elkhart, Ind., the
distinguished specialist in diseases of the
heart and nervous system, states that disor
ders of tho heart are as common as those of
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels or kidneys,
though often unsuspected. The reason peo
ple are not nwaro of this important fact is
becauso symptoms of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed to some other
source. If you have shortness of breath.
fluttering or palpitation, pain or tenderness
in loft breast, shoulder or side, oppressed or
choking sensation, fainting or smothering
spells, your heart is affected.
"1 had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My left pulse was very weak, could
at times scarcely feel it, excitement would
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear of
impending death stared mo in the face for
hours. Or. Miles' Nervine and New Heart
Cure are the only medicines that have proved
of any benefit and cured me." L. M. DYER,
Clovordale, Md.
"My wife hns been taking Lr. Miles' Nev
Cure for the Heart. She thinks it wonderful.
She has not been troubled with pain or
smothering spoils since using it. We have
also used Ifr. mum rills, and we lind them
all they are claimed to be." GEO. L. FINK,
Philadelphia, Pa,
Theso and hundreds of similar testimo
nials are convincing proofs of the wonderful
nosers of Dr. Miles' iVew Citre for the Heart.
It is effretive, agreeable, and above all, SAFE.
