In Astoria, from nay point outside of Oregon. Astoria, Or., October IS. !. Mayor Taylor advances no argumeat against applying the license system to gambling that has not been al ready thought of and duly considered by every intelligent person who was friendly to that measure. He is doubt less oojisciecrUous In his opposition to the ordinance, but he will surely me-.c with much difficulty in impressing a majority of his fellow citizens with than view of his motives. There are two classes of respectable people. Just as morally indiaed as Hon. I. Jf. Lot's and his Uk of unsax-ory agitators, wh supported the ordinance and will be disappointed in the mayor's unexpect ed diroptYoval of it. One of thes clashes favored the adoption or tie ordinance because it can see no mre barm ta Ucanaed gambling than in licensed liquor-ceiling; the other of these classes, and by far the more nu merous of the two. supported the ordi nance out of loyalty to their mayor In the unfair and unjustifiable fight made by the police commission against his pledged policy of retrenchment In public expenditures. Of course the mayor's veto of the ordinance means Chat the broCheis and back-room gam bling dns may resume business when ever and w-herever In the city the po lice think they can be most secretly conducted, and the city will revert to its time-honored method of blackmail ing an income from them. The plan of segregating and isolating such places In .m obscure and unles'r able section of the city, as a jw ? atisf a torily followed in Btston, New" York, Washington City, and other localities having centuries of experience In treat ing such evils, is thought by Mr. Ijong and his supersensitive and fas tidious associates liaMe o injure the sale of rc-al estate by frightening away from Clatsop county prsp"Ctle set tlers who nvieht not favor the ::n ami effective poiic? regulation ' f bawds and gamblers In one end of As toria. The council, of course, is n. likely to pa the ordinance over the mayor's Veto, and a th; mais f oth r citizens will n- r-Iap-e intj th- old attitude of tt .al indiff's-.-nce on the subj-Jt, the city authori:ie.s will do well to effect their compromise with the police commi-wl n as spoedily as possible, 'to the end that s.rwt r-prrs arvV i.th'T suspend'! arid n-oe.sar', municipal operati ins may be carried on as usual. The monthly d-fbt ftatem nt of Api;I 1 elwwi a surplus of $4.3!t5,6;4 of re ceipts oxt r expenditurr s. The first month of the McKinley Rdmintratio.t has thus turnel a steadily recurring monthly deficit Into a surplus. This facie shoiss how ready the buafn ' world is ) cliicounit thi future, and prepare in adx-ance for changed con ditions which will cmw und r new leglslaUim. After the election of Cleveland In 3892, the business xvorld took alarm at the certainty that a low tariff law would be passed, and began to prepare for lit, Just as today everyone Is preparing for the time whmn the DIngley bill shall become a law. Four year ago the merchant stopped buying, po as to get rid of the eitockfl on their shelves of goods whkh 'would be affeoted by a lower tariff; Importers stopped Importtng ex cept to fill direct orders, and the rev enues fell off in consequence. Xow they are doing exactly the opposite. During M&rcb they took imported goods out of bond, paying the dutlei thereon, and thus increased the rev enue ufflcieirtly to turn the deficit into a aurpiue. The amount of duties paid In March nao Just double the February tvoelpt. And the rxish of ehw Importing trade to get givnls nvrf IkAhv the Plnuley bill xvs Into effect ta txjxxrtcd to continue.
