CONCURRENT JURISDICTION.
: The 'Seattle Fost-InteMfgencer discuss
ing the decision on the jurisdiction ques
, "on says:
''It does not follow, however, that there
-; can be no such thing as the exercise of
" concurrent Jurisdiction, by the two states
' ' over the cwaters of the Columbia and It
tt certain and In a proper way and for
. certain ' purposes such concurrent Juris.
-diction would b an eminently proper
'"'Thing; (Particularly would this be true of
the regulation; of the salmon flslwry, the
' very point over which this controversy
-aroa. This concurrent Jurisdiction can,
'however, ' only be In pursuance of an
''arrangement, a compact or treaty, let
us say, between the authorities of the
two states, legislation based on identical
ly the same lines by the law making pow
ers of the two states. It may be Inter
esting to ndte here that the Washington
legislature has heretofore made over
tures to the Oregon legislature with a
view -to having the legislation of both
" states or Khe subject of the fisheries
'.regulations brought into exact barmony,
but the Oregon legislature declined to
take any action In the matter."
The Potomac river forms one boundary
between Alary land am) Virginia. The
.fisheries of the (Potomac are extensive
and valuuMe. For many years precisely
: the same difficulty as now exists on tho
Columbia fiver existed on the Potomac.
The' tows of the two atatts regulating
. fisheries differed, and each state being
absolutely supreme within Its own bor
ders, it wa an easy matter for fisher
men to evade arrest for violating the law
of either. state toy simply crossing the
. Imaginary boundary tine In the center of
' the channel, and the 4aw officers were
powerless to follow them. If the fish
eries there were to (be preserved and
regulated, concurrent action btcame
ntcessary, and It was bad by compact
entered into between the two states made
. In performance of legislation directed
to that end and ratified by subsequent
legislation.
, Where experience iwas shown the neces
sity of revising and amending the laws,
the -compact' 'has been revised and the
legialation necessary agreed to In ad
vance, and the states iuuve kept faith
with each' other. There have been several
times within comparatively recent peri
'ods when the governors of Maryland and
Virginia have met ax Washington City for
the purpose of effecting amendments to
the original compact; to toe followed, of
course, by the necessary legislative ac
tion. This, it would seem to us, affords a
good and fair precedent to follow In the
matter of regulating the fisheries of the
Columbia. The two states have a common
Interest In the preservation of the salmon
fisheries. ' .They are exactly of the same
Importance to one State as to the other.
The only difference which can exist on
the subject are as to mere matters of de
tail, which can toe settled by mutual con
cessions. There are no good reasons why
the subject should be left open to create
a constant frtctloni between the rival
fishermen of the two states, and it Is to
be hoped that at the next session of the
''Washington legislature an effort will be
made to enter Into a compact with Ore
gon (or a, concurrent system of regula
tions for the Columbia river fisheries and
for concurrent Jurisdiction In the law
officers of each stats for the enforcement
of such regulations.
1 In View of the recent decision on the
subject, the Oregon legislature will prob
ably be wining ' to enter Into such a
compact, although that body declined the
overtures In that direction at one time,
Thus the whole question may b satis
factorily adjusted without any injury to
the sensitive state pride of the citizens of
eltaer of the two governments.
. " AMERICAN JOURNALISM.
The following admirable article, taken
from a recent number of the San Fran
cisco Call, Is one of the best expositions
of the distinction between decent and
Indecent newspapers ever written. It
may, be added that the Call, under Its
new management. Is In every respect one
of 'the best examples of what It terms
Ceglttmate Journalism' to be found In the
whole country;
; Legitimate Journalism gives to every
Htm of news Its rightful space In the
record of events of the day. Illegitimate
Journalism makes of some act of vies
or crime a special feature and by elab
orating it, expanding it and exaggerating
it, nukes a sensation that discolors all
other 'events. The one shows the world
In Its annul conditions, the other dis
torts It Into abnormal vlclousness. The
one 1 a faithful picture, the other is a
-caricature. The one Is wholesome, the
other morbid. The one Instructs the In
telligence of the people, the other excites
the depraved curiosity of vitiated natures.
Oietn Journalism deals even with "impur
ities lh a dean way. It treats them only
as they appear in the cold, dear, un
colored light- of law, of science, or of
history. Where they happen, thera are
they recorded: and exactly as the law or
as science sees them, so ere they describ
ed. Unclean Journalism colors every of
fensive vllllany until it glows with sug
gestlveness. The evil is presented in
every form that ingenuity can Invent and
rhetoric describe so that those of de
praved tastes may roll th vile morsel
under their tongues as long as possible
before having to swallow ,-uid digest It.
In the one Inhere is truth, In the other
tscrt is ri:;-ners. 'ir.e or.e kicps the
mind purs even in the contemplation of
revolting things, but the other renders,
:he mind as corrupt as tho foul thing
In which it has been enticed to take de
light. In that Journalism, which is legitimate
and clean do we find the true expression
of the American press. In the other do,
we find the evidence of that seeming de-gene.na.tlo-,
which according to Max Nor
dau, Is one of the world-wide phenomena
of the time.
American Journalism is that which pro
duces the newspaper of the American
home. The other is that which tries to
rival the worst class of French novel In
depleting society, and has its rightful
puce nowhere In this country.
To publish a genuine' representative
American newspaper faithful to American
traditions and in sympathy with Amerl
can Ideals ds the only laudable profe
sUnal ambition open to American Jour
nallsts. To publish the news it is not
necessary to make a sensation of vice or
crime. It is enough to make note of '.he
ev.ls of the world for the instruction Ct
readers, and then go on to give due space
and rank to tnose events of Industry, art.
enterprise and progress which after all
are the evidences of the virtue which
dominates it. That is legitimate Journal
ism, clean Journalism and American Jour
Dal Ism.
In our state news this morning will be
noticed a comment from an Albany paper
concerning the habit of poking subscript
tlon 1'ists and money extracting schemes
under various disguises Into the hands
of city merchants. The people of Asto
ria, in the gCoomy years now past and
over, have borne their share of these
mictions. To laudable public enterprises
their pxketbooks have been always open.
To less meritorious private schemes they
have given with a willing, even a prodigal
hand. And at the same time property has
been depreciating, the problem of life
has become harder, and many Among us
once wealthy have been compelled to go
through periods of unhappiness and strug
gle amounting almost to penury. The
payment of taxes year after year during
this stagnation hus deprived dozens of
even the common necessaries of life. But,
notwithstanding this condition of affairs,
when approached a few weeks ago for
donations toward the coming regatta, all,
buoyed up with the hope of the near real
ization of their hopes for a railroad, gave
and gave generously. And now It is time
for a rest. Business men, In Justice to
their families arid themselves, should in
future exercise their very best Judgment
when called on to lay out money for
matters not within their legitimate
sphere. They have weCl earned this im
munity from the Inroads of sharks and
advertising fakirs and ought, In Astoria's
dawning prosperity, to draw salutary les
sons from their open-handed and to some
extent unwise liberality In the past.
Whether or not It is President H1U who
Is behind the Lake Washington canal may
be a mooted question, but it Is evident
to any one acquainted with the city of
t, Louis and the St. Louis spirit, that
the money to finance Seattle's foolish pro
ject Is not coming from, although. It may
be passing through the ostensible hands
of St. Louis capitalists. A city whose
entire street car service is owned and con
trolled in Chicago; whose fifteen-story
buildings are planned by Chicago archi
tects, built by Chicago contractors and
killed mechanics, out of material brought
from Chloago, and whose citizens would
yet be crossing the Mississippi river on
scow ferries propelled by mule power If
it had mot Ibeen for the enterprise of Jay
Could and the investment of Boston and
'Philadelphia capital; such a city and such
people are not likely to put live or six
millions of dollars In a ditch in an out-of-
the-way place like Seattle, Washington.
Although it Is true that St. Louis is one
the wealthiest cities lti the United
States, it lis also a notorious fact that the
money of her capitalists Is a'il loaned
ut on eight-per-cent-compound-interest-bearlng-real-estate-mortgoges,
or through
pawn-broker shops, and was never known
1 be Invested In any sort of public enter
prise whatever.
The Detroit Tribune makes a vigorous
protest against the criminal recklessness
and vandalism of hunters and lumber"
men by which the formerly wooded tracts
of Michigan are now a scene of desola
tion. "In all that once beautiful region
known as Tine Woods,' " says the Trib
une, "only little patches of greenness
now remain." It Is estimated that during
the lat forty years over a million dollars
worth of timber has been destroyed on
the average every year. The same thing
may a.sj be said of Wisconsin, and other
timber sections of the middle West. All
of which goes to show that before many
.years elapse the onf.y timber left In the
whole country will be on the I'aciue
coast. We would welcome these timber
.llcnds here in Oregon, and can furnish
them with enough raw material to exer
else their genius for dsstructlan on for
the next century, and then they will hard
ty have made a visible impr.'Sslon on the
nnllr.ons of acres of timber along the Ore-
son coast.
The Trolley cars In Philadelphia have
reduced taxable property to the extent of
i, 000,000 worth of horses, but as the gen'
tnrai net valuation for the year Is $13,000,000
Ithe city has no complaint to make. The
llgures are a fair Illustration of the re
sult of the Introduction of Improved ma,
n'hinery.
Minnesota, which was once considered
boits.de the corn belt, reports this year
Uuii.OOO acres planked to corn, or 200,000
snore than last year. The crop is in
tflner condition than ever before. A granu
Jiiant Is the malse, and the boom It prom,
onus means hundreds of millions.
A good idea hus been adopted In Eng
lish coinage. The new bronze coins com.
lilt from the London mint will serve for
iwalghts as well as money of the realm
A penny Is one-third of an avoirdupois
aunce, the half-penny one-fifth, and the
iUrthlng one-tenth.
The "John Sherman Democrats," as the
EDe dollar men call the members of the
Cleveland end of the party, are growing
la numbers and Influence every day, A
good many of them, including, possibly,
their leader, will develop Into Republi
cans next year.
It Is a significant fact that all attempts
at colonization In Mexico have proved to
be failures. The conditions in that coun
try are evidently not favorable to the
success of such experiments, and. In
fact, that seems to be the cuse with most
countries-
Various national debts were refunded
lst year to the extent of $2,500,000,000.
und the saving effected in Interest was
324,000.000. It Is hardly necessary to add
Ibt-t the United tats Is not in the list.
THE NATIONAL DEBT.
Toledo Blade.
The Blade has often adverted to the
chronic incapacity of the Democratic
party to legislate In a business way on
national flounces. Following the theories
ox doctrlnarles rather than availing it
self of our own experiences In the oast,
or that of other nations. It has never
been placed in power that It did not make
a muddle of the nation finances.
The Republican party, on the other
hand, has always struck out clear, bus!
ness- like lines of policy. First, it adoo-
ted the proper legislation to bring in
enough revenue for the need's of the gov
ernment, and something besides to meet
the bonded debt; then it used this sur
plus in paying the debt.
Alter the close of the war, with Us
enormous expenses, the history of Re.
publican administrations, or of adminis
trations wntcn . were compelled to con
duct the affairs of the government under
legislation enacted by Republican con
gresses, is a record of a full treasury, of
a steady reduction of the nubile debt
and of refunding kt at lower rates so as
io ugnten the annual interest burden by
many minions. - f
The record of the two years of a- Demo
cratic administration under Democratic
revenue law fails to raise enough money
nor me actual neeas or the government
Ithat It was necessary to borrow money,
inus increasing tne national aebt and ad
ding to the yearly Interest burden.
The Republican record stands thus
During the twenty-seven years of Repub
lican administration, which afforded Dro
tecnlon to American labor and Industries,
from 1866 to 1892 the Interest bearing debt
of the United States was decreased by
i,747,3m,,s, the amount standing as fol
lows at the two periods:
Inlterest
Year bearing debt,
MM $2,332,331,203
1892 686,029,330
Decrease under, protection. .$1,747,301,878
The Democratic record Stands thus
During the two years of a free trade
administration the Interest bearing debt
of the Unlted grates Increased from $585,
037,000 In 1893 up to $716,202,060 on June 30.
1836. The Increase during these two years
was $131,10t,730, the account standing as
loiiaws:
Interest
Year" bearing debt
1893 $716,202,060
1893 685,037,330
Increase under free trade. . .$131,164,730
During the twenty-seven years of Re,
publican protection, the average annual
decrease In the interest bearing debt of
the country was $64,714,884. During- the
last two years of a Democrat Is free trade
administration the average annual In
crease In Ithe Interest bearing debt of the
United States was $66,582,365.
This comparative record shows two
things the business character of Repub
lican 'legislation and financiering, and the
superiority of the protective policy. De
spite all the argiumenlts of the Democrats
In favor of the policy of favoring for
eign manufacturers and foreign working-
men to the detriment of our own, there is
no voter of the United States, among
the working class, who has felt the pinch
of the business depression of the past
two years, who would not sooner today
h'ave the prosperous times of 1891 and 1892
under u protective tariff than the hard
times since June, 1893, with the Wilson
tariff.
THE JUDGE'S SILILOQUY.
Picktd up on the bench a't Bloomsbury
county court after Judge Bacon had mis
taken a "new woman" for a man.
'Is this a woman I see before me,
In yonder gallery? Come, quickly tell me!
I doubt my eyes, and yet I see a form
Capp'd, collarM, fronted, necktled like a
man.
A form, methmks, that wears a reefer
Jacket,
And, possibly but no! I'll not go on.
Is this same creature as insensible!
To fee-ling as to taste? Or is it but)
A phantom of my mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from a 'Yellow Aster'd'
brain?
I see it still, and In a shape so. palpable
I fear It is as true as It is 'new!'
And yet, If 'tis a woman that I see1
Why, why, Is It that she Is dressed like
that?
What has unsexed her? What has mad
her ape1
Her lord and master, man, before high
heaven?
I see her still oh! 'tis a Woman, eh?
Then seize her, usher! nay, I'll not com
mit her
What need of that? For she commits
herself.
But In the name of outraged sense, re
move her,
Not for contempt of court, but for a
crime
Far worse contempt for her own
womanhood!"
