Astoria, Or., October 15, IS. The tnaulry published In today's Is sue from an Eastern nenpLper asking for certain facta about Astoria and fu tor business, only demonstrates that we have been lamentably lame In let ting our neighbors know of our prog, ress. . The work of the police department itnd new health officer in renovating the city Is meeting with general approval among all classes of citisena. The only regret is that the work was not under taken some time ago and many cases of sickness bave thus been avoided. The call for bids Just Issued by the Astoria, and Columbia River Railroad Company for additional trestle work and ties Is only another evidence that construction will be prosecuted this season most vigorously. It is almost time for croaXers to crawl into their holes. ' The Nicaragua canal bill now pend ing before congress is meeting with the support of a majority of the repre sentatives and senators because they know that it is the one great scheme which alone Is necessary to the protec tion of the United States in time of wax. and also that K wai afford the only neons of cheap transportation between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts on all heavy freight as well as sJTordlng a short line between England and Eu rope and the Sandwich Islands and Eastern Asia and Japan. With the strongest belief in arbitra tion, and the friendliest feeling for the, general principle of the pending treaty. It may just as well be said that all talk about "jamming U through" with out discussion or delay is injudicious and Insensate, and Is calculated to do the measure more harm than can any ef. She objections thus far raised against. Hasty treaty-making is to be deprecated as much as hasty legisla tion. A dark-lantern treaty Is as objec tionable as a dark-lantern tariff bill. Let the measure have the full, mature, deliberate consideration so momentous an Instrument deserves. If It be a wor thy measure. It will not suffer thereby. In any case, the real friends of national arbitration can await the result with eyianlmlty and confidence. The Chicago Times-Hera'd rays that the West la (am ever receding region. Oace it was bounded by the Allegha aiea. then by the Great La ces, tben by the Mkasissippi. the Missouri, and the Rocky Mountains. And that at each remove nature changed her aspect and became more mysterious In her work ings, demanding new . methods on the part of those who would subdue her to the uses of man.. The article goes on to epUc of the arid regions of the West, and that only one thing is lack ing to Its productive use, namely, wa ter. It further "states that the problem Is one that affects ithe people of the whola ouumtry, -and. thai within a few yearn hte s4d 4ajvla viH be. needed to relieve the pressure of surplus pop ulation. To be true, "more elbow room" will be needed in the great United States, - but Oregon speaking for. Itself, as well as its slater states of Washing ton and California, can eafuiy say that long before, the arid regions of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Idaho, will be needed for the surplus population of this country, the states on the Pacific coast will have thousands of acres to give away to bona. Iflde settlers, home makers, and pioneers. The problem, as viewed from the far west is not such an extreemly difficult one. We do not want to see our lands thrown away, nor yet do we think U necessary to enter hito expensive Irrigation plans when there are many broad acres open to homestead entry which need no irri gation. THE NEWS OF CUBA. There Is no lack of news from and about Cuba which may without rash Bess be reckoned credible. The patriots are- busy. General Gomez has left CifMtsjs and the eastern two provinces behind him, and la making his way, cautiously but steadily, across Santa Clara toward the Spanish capital. He la still, it Is true, some 250 miles from Havana. But he is also about 100 miles from Cubitas, which fact provokes the Inquiry why the Spaniards make no at tempt to stexe the latter place. They are supposed to have a garrison at Puerto Principe, only march distant, and another at the port of Nuevltas. Why do they not send an army up to the hills, seise Cubitas, and procialm to ithe world that the rebel capital Is In their hands Swing that they have four or Ave times as many soldiers as the Cufcans, It seems not l their martial erdlt that they should devote more attention to defending their own capital than to attacking that of the nemy. Are we to understand that the Spank troops at Puerto Prin cipe dare mH make war only on women as they are now diving? A rare plan It would be. Indeed, to create a diver sion for the reuof of Havana, and ti seek to draw O.om.-i back to the east. by renewing the atrocities of Valmase- dae "Black UriKade." Havana, indeed, seems sorely In need of relief. The city Is over-crowded with refuges from other parts of the Island. and with Spanish soldier. Food Is soar'', and growing scarcer, and hair the people have little or no money with which to buy it at any prk'e. Smallpox Is epidemic, ar.d Will doubtclss continue to ravas the city until the rainy sen son brings yellow fever to take Its place Insuryvnt bands Infest the su burbs, cutting off supplies of milk and vegetable, and destroying plantations and villages within sight ijf M vm Cas tle. A wretched plight the place Is In. practically besieged, and sufferlnt avt ual plague ami famine. It might better affairs a little If Veylr -ahould send the soldiers out to fight. Instead of keep ing them Idle to consume the swiftly waning store of provisions. Hut he Is too humane for that, for he troop would run great danger of getting hurt perhaps killed. The Cubans have a habit of thus Hl-treating Spanish ol dlers when they catch them In the open. They blew up a Spanish gunboat with a torpedo the otner day. in the Cauto River, and killed most of Its men. And If they would do that to an ?xpedl- bon sent merely to reinforce a Spanish garrison In Santiago province, what might they not do to an explltlon sent against Cubitas? They ar; bad men, these Cuban patriots; a good deal like the Mexicans of half a century ago, of whom Birdofredom Sawtn pathetically complained that they du am ail n' lots o' things, thet Isn't wut they ough' to, Beln" they hain't no lead, they make their bullets out o' copper An' shoot the darned things a; us, to. which Caleb set ain't proper. As for the rest, 'h" Spaids.-. situation is "not Improving. There Is unquestion ably Imminent danger of a cabinet cri sis at Madrid, the consequences of which might be embarrassing to tne dynasty Itself. The fjovi'rntn-nt has wisely decided to cease dljcrintinatlng against American vessels In port charges, but that tardy act of justice will be of little material value to It. It will not perceptibly alter the attitude of the American government or the sen timents of the American people. The release of the alleged filibustering steamer Three Friends will not please Spain, but R seems to have been a logical and proper thing to do. The United States' is at peace with Spain nd her colonies, and there is no rea son, therefore, for interrupting lawful commerce between the two countries, nor for r using a vessel clearance to a Spanish port. This country cannot be aiding belligerents 1n a war against Spain by sending such ships, because, according to the Spanish government itself, there are no belligerents rn Cuba, and no state of war. Of course, the Spanish port officers will prevent the landing of any cargo until duty is paid and all proper regulations are complied with, and the local police, will prevent the Improper use of the cargo after It Is landed. If not, surely this country is not to be called to account for the failures of Spanish administration In the "Ever Faithful Isle." MARVELOUS RESULTS. From a letter written by Rev. J. Gun derman. of Dimondale. Mich., we are permitted to make this extract: "I have no hesitation In recommending Dr. King's New Discovery, as the re sults were almost marvelous In the case of my wife. While 1 was pastor of the Baptist church at Rives Junc tion she was brought down with pneu monia succeeding la grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last hours with little Interruption, and It seemed as If she could rut survive them. A friend recommended Dr.KIng's New Discovery: it was quick In Its work and highly satisfactory in re sults." Trial bottles free at Chas. Rog ers' drug store. Regular size, 50c and J1.00.

The health of the child depends upon the health of the mother, both before and after birth. Most all of woman's weakness and particularly the weakness that most strongly Influences the health of children, comes from some derangement or,dis-ae of the dis tinctly feminine organs. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will cure trou bles of this nature. It should be taken regularly by every woman during the entire period of gestation. It gives strength to all the organs involved, lessens the pains of childbirth, and In sures the health of both mother and child.
