THK TIME TO ADVERTISE. ' i
J
Mr. E. J. Smith aa-a bulnea men with !
whom he talked In the East were anxiou i
to learn all they could about the Pacific j
Coast, and the proeptvtlve development j
and increase of this country's trade with
China ami Japan waa a theme of constant
discussion everywhere.
There la every reason to belirve that a
lanre and desirable class ot ImmlKratlon.
with a vast amount of capital behind tt.
will be attracted to this coast In the Im
mediate future. But, aa Mr. Smith found,
while Tacotna and Seattle are well known
towna to moet Eastern people, Astoria Is
either utterly unheard of. or what little
information there ta extant about the city
I so Intermingled with falsehood aa to
the condition and accessibility of our
harbor that we stand little show by con
trast with some of our Jealous and more
enterprising neighbors.
The necessity for the adoption of some
intelligent plan of systematic and per
sistent advertising for Astoria, has been
dilated upon so often In these columns
that It seems a useless and thoroughly
unappreciated task to further attempt to
arouse any Interest In the subject There I
never nas oeen a iine in me nisiory 01 i
the city when the retrns from the rUtht
kind of advertlsin would be so certainly J
and quickly apparent as at present, and
If our business men and property owners
could be. mad to realize the extent to
which the eyes of the whole country are
turning; In this direction, perhaps a
greater Interest and attention might be
excited In the matter.
There la serious danger that when the
inevitable tide of Immigration to this
coast sets In, if we have neglected the
preliminary work so essential to guide ft
to this section. Instead of the bentut we
might reasonably expect from It. we
shall see this Immigration divide on both
sides of us and thus go to help build up
and render still more formidable those lo-
csJlUes most Interested In retarding or i
i. .v . i ,1 .
preventing altogether our growth and de-
velopment.
TWO DIFFERENT METH ID3. i
The figures representing tho Republican j
and the Democratic methods of treating
ii. f roihile Indebtedness are so
impressive ana msirucuve wiai mr,
serve to be urged strongly upon the at-'
..ntin r th. iww.nl hn oar the debts,
. .- j t .. . her nuptials with Neptune, and I" after
Between March 1. 1W. and March 1. lfmS . ' . ., ' .' , . . .
(when Mr. Oeveland returned to office), j
the debt payments of the Itep:ibllcan
party amounted to Jl.ftl.KT.'Cl lletween
March 1. 18S5, and March 1. PCS (under the
rule of Mr. Cleveland), the national debt
was Increased to the extent of UCO) 2&
That Is to say, since Mr. Cleveland s re
turn lo oim-Tj -IC IIM iim i -j
people Just about one-seventh of debt ,
that his Republican predecessors took off. '
Give him a little more time and no doubt
he would restore the whole of It. The
American Economist pre3?nts the fact In
Rnother Interesting form, as follows:
Republican monthly decrease of
debt, WS-1S9J SiT'H.lH
Democratic monthly .Increase
of debt. lsaMMsJ
521 28!
!
This is the work of the great states-
man whose soul burned within him, eight
years ago,
as he observed a surplus In
the treasury. In his letter of accept-1
ance. In 18, Mr. Cleveland eaid: . an,i, though und-r other names, the con
"In reviewing the bad effects of this I "ruction of sleeping, parlor and emigrant

must not overlook the tendency toward i

gance which a congested treasury pro-
duces." j.
And now the 'juestion is whether a,
tariff prociiclng a surplus Is really morej
'dangerous or extravagant than a de-J
flclency created by tariff legislation and
made up by buying gold ut 3J Ier cent. I
premium from bankers who take it out

The present issue ol bonds is the fourth .
In two years. The first issue was made ,
In Februar.iJ WM, and was for tVi.WiO. H u. !
The second issue was mad? in November!
of the same year, and for the same!
amount. The third is.ue was for tli".-
OUO.OGO, and was made Just one year ago.'
This Issue netted the treasury only HOT,-:
f.l.ZSi In gold. The present issue will net j
about ill(,6u,yi0. '
It Is amusing to see the Democratic
merchants and business men of San;
Francisco, who carried torches inserilit-d
with free trade axioms In Cleveland pro-I
cessions three or four years ago, now:
holding public meetings to pass resolu-:
tlons frantically calling upon congress to
protect them from Asiatic competition.
It makes a big difference with those peo- j
pie as to whose ox Is being gored. When'
the factories on the Atlantic coast first;
commenced to shut down in the foe of
European pauper labor competition, it
was all right with these patriots. They;
believed In the good old" Democratic doc-i
trine of their right to buy In the chenp-
est markets, they did: and If thc-East ' Cough Cure and you have immsdiate re
