THE DAILY ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, WEDNESDAY MOIININU, MAY 2, 1894. A TOWN'S NEWSPAPER, ' Each day's mail brings The Astorlan requests from the east for sample copies. A town Is Judged by the sup . port its payers receive, and when the paper has reatbed its eastern destina tion and ita recipient finds it devoid of local news, and Instead of plenty of local advertisements, the columns are filled with the pralfse of patent medicines and other foreign commodities, he naturally comes to the conclusion that it is a good place to stay away front and the citizens of that town wonder why their natural advantages are not heard of down east among the capital ists who have more money than land, and why those capitalists do not come' out. and take advantage of the natural resources of their town and county and build. Now it costs money to collect news, put It in type and have a paper printed and distributed, and as no daily newspaper was ever known to live on its subscription alone, the real support of a paper must come from its advertis ers. When a paper receives plenty of local advartising support it helps every business man and every property owner in the community. Every such paper increases property values, in the coun ty where It is printed; it even helps its enemies and those who in no wise con tribute to its supr.ort, as well as its friends. Of course it helps those who tse its columns best; bub a worthy pa per helps every interest in the town tnd county where It is published. And the man who helps sustain such a pa per helps every man in business who does nothing to sustain it. And bo it is that the enterprising business men in a community have to do the advertising for the whole community; for the drones ana ror tne human pigs, as well, who deliberately hang back with the inten tion of making their more liberal com petitors draw customers to town and who then try to capture as much of their trade as possible. What would become of the average . lively county seat If the liberal-minded, public spirited and progressive men in it should cease advertising altogether? Every newspaper in the town would die too dead to bury. Ita business would desert It; its people would leave it, and It would become a graveyard of once living and prosperous business enter- prises, end its deserted buildings, the abode of bats and owls, snakes and liz ards, would stand as dreary monuments for the dead and gone. This would be a Just punishment for the narrow-minded and supremely selfish business men who hnng back and make their more liberal minded and progressive neighbors do all the advertising for their town. Citizens of Astoria, do you realize what you owe to a few liberal-minded, public-spirited, energetic, progressive business men in Astoria? Have you ever really thought of it? Do the men who never spend a nickel . for advertising fully realize what they owe to their wiser and less selfish and more fcsr-slghted business neighbors? Let the few advertisers in the Astoria papers cease newspaper advertising and no newspaper could be printed in the town. What do you think of this, good people of Astoria? What would become of your town should the newspapers in It cease to Issue? Astoria haa a fair start, but ruin and desolation would overtake the town If ail Its printing presses were to stop. No mercnandislng. of pny account, could be done here. As toria would begin to go down the mo ment the music of the printing presses eased; and It would continue to go down, down, down, until nothing but a graveyard of former activities remain ed ft mournful reminder of the busy prosperous, happy past. Paralysis would strike the town, and then death would follow paralysis. THE TICKET NOMINATED. Through some unaccountable mistake, the ticket at the end of The Astorlan's report of the county Democratic con vention got badly mangled in yester day's issue. The following Is a correct statement of the ticket nominated; State Senator Benjamin Young. State Representatives John Kopp and Victor Mlchelson. County Clerk Arthur Leberman. County Sheriff E. C. Lewis. County Recorder Capt. P. W. Week. County Judge-J. W. Walker. County Assessor Thomas G. Boelllng. County Treasurer Isaac Bergman. County Commissioner P. A. Trullln ger. 1 ' County Surveyor Alfred S. Tee. Justice of Peace Mat. Hughes. Constable Fred, Oberg. Coroner W. A. Pohl. In his back yard in Brooklyn he has grapevines that flourish and bear fruit. Several years ago he planted parsley In the back yard and discovered that his vines began to droop and dle.? He con sulted a vineyard expert and was told that grapevines "-uM not .live with parsley growing nvir by. .As soon as he removed the parsley the vines regained life. Then he ate parsley and drank wine, and discovered that it killed the effects of the vinous product. Mr. Atkinson, in his article in the Mav Fnnim. undertakes to establish three very Important conclusions! First, that the statistics of land mortgages show prosperity and not disaster; see ond, that there is no tendency towara the development of a landlord-ond-ten ant class in the United States; but, on the contrary, that land-ownership tends strongly toward small Individual hold ers; and thira, tnat tne iarmers are coming to hold the political power in the United States, and that there is no need to fear the consequences, because of their conservative character and general prosperity. When you feel that you want a good smoke, go to Charles Olsen's, 527 Third street. He keeps the Belmont, ideal, American, Gerona, Schiller in Caballeros size, Sin Edwin, Reina Lulsa, Flor de Stanford. Hoffman House, Upmans, La Corona, Pride of Key West and all the latest brands of 5 and 10 cent, cigars in the market, and the best stock or pipes, tobacco and, smokers' articles in the city. Don't go to Portland to buy your tickets for the "Old Country" and the East when you can get them for the same price at the Union Pacific office in this city,' and thereby save your lo cal fare to Portland. BEAT THE REGISTER. Burglars cut out a pane of glass from the back window of Ross, Higgins & Co.'s store at Uppertown Monday night and entered the place with no good in tentions. They found the showcase con tained a lot of cutlery and razors, but fastened with a padlock. This they broke off, and then selected what they wanted, with as much deliberation as though they intended paying for it, for they only took the best. They then broke the padlock off from the back door cf the store and left, taking the J175 cash register from the counter with them.' which they rang up down at Uie river's edge and rifled of $2. They had a sense of humor about them, as the register, when found, was rung up to a KO-cent purchase, but Mr. Peterson, the manager claims ths cutlery they took would amount to $S5, TRY IT. After a number of experiments. It is said. Col. Julian K. Larke, of New York, has demonstrated beyond a doubt that parsley. If eaten before or immediately after drinking wine, will klH or com pletely neutralize the effects, making intoxication an impossibility. H dis covered this antidote in peculiar way. ABSOLUTE MERIT. No other plaster has been produced which gains so many testimonials of high value as those continuously ac corded to Allcock's Porous Plaster, and the only motive for these exceptional commendations is the fact that it is a medicinal and pharmaceutical prepara tion of superior value.
