EMI tor As tori an: As the' subject of the variety theatre Is now agitating the Astoria public, permit me to call attention to a few points concealing wihluh there has bten an holiest difference of opinion: r'li-st alas Mie city council under our Quarter anything to do wion the grain ing or refusing of a theatre license? jjecond Has the police Judge any option about granting a theatre li cense if the required receipt .'or license fee la ottered Mm? Ithlrd iHa our city council any authority under our charter to refuse a bar-room license If the applicant's bond is sufficient? For answer to these questions I re fer the council and readers to the de cision of the supreme court of the state of Oregon In a case entitled "The City !

But the sui reme court also declares "Under the clause (In the charter) to provide for the good order of the city and prevent Intoxication the city council has power to prohibit the sale Oi. .liquor at particular places, or lo callty, 'but not the sale generally.' " Under this decision the council has full power to refuse a license In Llb erty Hall, ts . the remonstrance was not against Blel & Johnson having a license anywhere In the city, but against "a particular place," Liberty Hall. Long ago our city council pas ed an ordinance forbidding theatrical performances in connection with a bar room. Consequently no bar-room li cense can be granted to the variety theatre to (be used In Liberty Hall. In conclusion let me say that some small-mlnJedi person In an . evening contemporary attempted to stampede some of aur council by sneering at t'ue fact that their action against the va. rit-ty theatre was In harmony with tne wishes and prayer of some of the best ladies of the city. Could a nobler rea son have bain given for their action? The most sucred ' thing on earth is motherhood's devotion to Childhood; and in even the moBt brutal ages of the world, "the Knights of the Round Table," "sworn' to protect childhood and redress woman's wrongs," has re mained until this day among all clvli lined nations as the very highest ideal of true manliness. And tho man who can sneer at the devotion of motherhood has simply struck hla own mother in the face. CITIZEN. A. F. AND A. M. FUNERAL NOTICE. The members of Temple Lodge, No. J, A. F. and A.

DEI' mm The Tacoma and Seattle papers are making a bitter fight against a com- pusory pilotage bill now before the Washington legislature. As an argu ment tney cite the difadvantagea U the Columbia river from a compulsory pilotage system, and warn the mem bers of the legislature against saddling the SounJ with a like measure. Thf Tacoma Ledger has the following to say editorially: Then Is no need of a law to compe shipmasters sailing in and out of Pu i;et Sound to employ pilots. On the other hand, such a law would onl linposj an unnecessary, and because unnecessary, an arbitrary and wanton tax upon our lurelgn and coastwise trade. We s'houkl rather encoura.-;e this trade by making our ports cheap of access and dispatch for vessels. In our competition with the Columblc river system we ought to avail our selves of all natural advantages, on of which is that the entrance of thf I straight is so broad and safe, free from I all obstructions from the Sound to th Exercises ocean, that navigators need no pilot age, olihor than they can derive fron the charts. There Is no demand for compulsory pllotajie from shipowners or shlpmas ters or underwriters that we have evei heard of and we think the legislature will see the Impropriety of burdening pur commerce unnecessarily by pass ing a law In the Interest of pilots out of a Job.
