The proposed Income tax will affect but few of us directly. One of the bills presented at the be ginning of the new year, the one bear ing Mr. Wilson's name, will be the hard esti to pay. The number of unemployed people In the country at the present time Iff about equal to the number of those who wouldn't vole for Cleveland again If they had the chance. All talk about democratic opposition In congress to the Wilson bill should be taken with several grains of salt. The measure represents the policy of the party in power, and the kickers will all be whipped into the traces before the final vote takes place. Boston is preparing to supplement her water supply for (Ire purposes, by pip ing her streets for the use of salt watet from the harbor. The boats will thur be enabled to aid in extinguishing r Are In the very heart of the fire dis trict. The wonder Is that something of this sort has not been put In use lone before, In all of the Important Hen port cities. i Eight hundred and one thousand per Hons out of employment: 1,956,000 de pendent on them for a living. These an the figures compiled by Rradstreet, am" while they may not be absolutely cor rect, they are near enough to point the moral which should adorn the tale, ol this, the beginning of the new year Many of theso hundreds of thous ands of unemployed men voted agalns their own Interests when they allowed the democratic party to assume eon trol of the affairs of the country, nm! Incidentally to tinker with the tarlf: question. only, under the stimulus of bonds voted by the people. Aa an Inevitable ennso quence. tho railroad Indebtedness has bocn steadily Increasing for a number of years, nlid the only way out of the difficulty is a resort to the process of a receivership. ; in the face of all this, a railroad to Astoria would have been a paying institution right alonp, would have made business for any transcontinental road that would have extended Us connections to this place. The Salem Statesman of a recent date has the 'following: It would be a good thing for our mer chants to refuse to buy the butter, eggs, etc., of those farmers who sell their products in Salem for cash and send away to some purchasing agencj for their goods. Such action might Dnng tnese people spending their monej away from home to their nenses- whero they would realize the full value or. a nome market a market that helpf them, and to which they In turn owe their patronage. Such a retaliatory principle Is a bac thing to encourage. The farmers In thr vicinity of Astoria have at times com plained that the merchant here woulc not buy Clatsop county farm produce at a fair price, and it Is a notorious fac that many pople of this locality pat ronlze Portland, much to the dlsadvan tagc of Astoria. There may be Jus cause to complain on both sides, bu the same energy would be better e penuea in devising a means for th city and immediate vicinity to work t mutual advantage. Maybe the farmen expect too much for their produce ant perhaps the merchants ask too muc) for their goods. v The most famous of Mr. Cleveland messages as president was thit abou the questions that are before the pub Ho more than any others and with in creased intensity at this time. We rtfei to his annual, message to congress Ir comber, 1887, when it occurred to bin to taka the leadership of his party 1' Ideas. Hence the sudden and unexpect ed outbreak of his powerful views or the tariff, a subject to which he hat never been known to give much of hit attention, Indoeu, he said on one occa sion when governor that he did noi know a thing about the tariff. In oidei to make his first essay on the lanf. Important and Imposing, Mr. Cleveland touched no jther topic In Ills message, and was so radical he was reiHUted a! the time to have astonished .ond up palled Carlisle, going further than any body Mad expected. He said the tarlf! rodiiced a fearful quantity of surplui evenue; and that having a luigi mount of money In the national treaB ry was taking It away from the peoph r.d placing It where It produced panics He urged that "It is a condition that onfronts us, not a theory." Mr. Cleve land pointed out just how the tarlf worked to pile up surplus revenue, am thus Increase the premium on bonds oj Jlstvesslngly advancing the public cred to disturb Industries and devoloi lack of confidence, and thus breed pan les In a mountain of gold. Under th ipcrations of the Wilson bill, however -dioufd that measure become a law, flu possibility of a panic from any sucl Jttuse will be speedily and effectlvelj wiped out, and Instead of a mountnii of gold, wo are to be confronted with i huge deficiency. MUSCLE AND VICIOR-A DIFFER ENCE. Many muscular men succumb to fa tigues bourn with ease by persons far their inferiors in physical etrcngtn Muscle docs not Imply viaor. In wet, It is not difficult of proof that athletes do not live us long nor enjoy as Rood health as the average Individual who is vigorous that Is to sav. whose diges tion and sleep are unimpaired, whose nerves are tranquil, and who has no organic tendency to disease, inew - qulnites of vigor arc conferred upon those inherently weak, no less than upon those debilitated through wasting disease, by a thorough, persistent course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the leading national tonic, Indorsed and recommended by phlslcians of eminence.

Grow, who bus Just beer, nominated for congressman-at-lnrge l the republicans of Pennsylvania, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of William Lilly, belongs to the heroic agi of politics. Hie was sieaker of thi house In the congress of 1801-3. whlcl was called on to provide ways ant' means for carrying on the war, ant which did this work promptly and pa triotically. He dropped out of publii life so long ago that his name is un known to the younger generation of vot ers In the country at large, but In the war days and for years before he wat a conspicuous figure In the nation' politics. The record of railroads that have passed Into the hands of receivers Uur lug the last year Is the largest that has ever been known, comprising over 25, 009 miles of track, with an aggregate indebtedness of $1,200,000,000. Included In this schedule of wrecks are the three principal transcontinental lines, and seventy other roads of different degrees of Importance. It is undoubtedly true that th railroad system of the country has been extended faster than waa ne-' cessary or advisable.
