Th ability of women to succoed in- the professions and la some business pursuits Is no longer questioned and they are welcomed as participants In tfcese sterner walks by liberal-minded men wbo admit rheir keenness of Intel, loot, tbelr safe reasoning powers and th:r industry. Aa directors of public schools they would be In a much more congvnUl sphere aod one hi which they would ac complish even tetter results. Since pub. Be sentiment la Clatsop county has not yet progressed so far aa to tolerate wo men for directors, aa Is the custom In many of The most Intelligent aod refined communities of America, let us at least do the next best thing admit some of them to share In the forerameat of our public schools by proxy. The schools come next to the. tjomes. and It is but a step from rhe ruler of the latter to be. come an adviser of the former. Women as teachers admittedly accomplish more In the primary and in many of the higher grades than do men. It Is not unreason, able to believe that an organized boiy of well-educated women behind our school board would prove a valuable aux. Uiarr to the board and a benefit to our schools. Too little importance is u?u. ally attahed to visits to our schools ,by directors, and too few are made. The sanitary arrangements of bulluings and rooms need constant and better super, vision than they are apt to sre from men. Teachers and scholars are kept to a higher pitch wtoen their work is submit, ted to the test of Inspection, and by no one would Inspection be more thorough than by well.qirallfled women, who are in sympathy wirh the pupil and rhe teartier and are conversant with the het methoux of education. Astoria will not regret the organisation of a "mothers' league" for this purpose, and rhe time cannot be far distant when school elec. tlon voters will recognize the peculiar fitness of women as ful'-flfdged directors and give them their support in preference to men at the polls. rion.

The more the subject Is considered, tha more apparent it becomes that Presl. dent 'Mohler has thrown a boomerang that will go home to tilm with telling effect. If ha "wants to cut itetes. why doesn't he do so against the unholy al. liance that Is now sapping the life of the Inland Empire farmers? He Is charging four times as much as he ought to bring wtieat Into Portland, where tie delivers the larger port of It to himself In the guise of another transportation company for carriage to 6an Francisco at a loss to the producer of more than 12 60 a ton. Here is where he might dls. tlmrulsh 'himself as a railroad manager, snd build up his company and the great northwest territory at the same time. But. no. he thinks he is getting even with Hammond for presuming to bring three Trillions of nwiey into Oregon for investment and Incldentully disturbing th fat schemes of his Portland syco phants who have become Immensely rich at the expense of the farmer and mer chants of Oregon and Washington. Ttie rates on rhe- A. C K. R. are already less than oneJhalf the legal rates fixed The public at large. It Is not too much to s-iy, 'Joes not sbare In tne partisan. ship at rhe bottom of the unseemly con. troversy between fechley and Sampson. They feet that both admirals did grand service In the war against Spain, and chat, as Schley once put It "there was glory enough for both." What they de. sire h) that both shall be honored. Some criticism tm been made of he adminis tration because of the advance of Samp, soa above Schley, but it is by no means an unprecedented thkre? to advance one officer of the navy or army over a senior in rank, when the emergencies of the case seem to warrant such a proceeding. and that the president believed Sampson was the right man for the chief command of the naval operations against the Span, ish fleet and the Cuban ports held by Spain must be conceded. The trouble first took definite shape, so as to be dan. gerous. wth the proposition to revive the grade of admiral, for the benefit of Rear Admiral Dewey, whose Important work In the Philippine Islands was deemed worthy of a reward no less. Friends of both the other rear admirals thereupon dVnuuided tfeat the other dls used grafc of vice admiral should be revived, and both parties wanted it for their favorities. It even went so far that the deserved and desired promo, tlon of Admiral Dowey was endangered In fact, the matter of reviving the higher grade was "tiung up."

The peace of mind, the mental poise and calmness under difficulties, which is neces sary for happy womanhood is only possible when the sensitive feminine organism is in a perfectly htalthy condition. If there be any weakness or derangement in this re spect no remedy in the world so com pletely restores womanly health, nervous vigor and capability as the wonderful "Favorite Prc-cription " invented by Dr. o r ti: ... , - . ricn:c, cnn i consulting pnyMcian oi the Invalids' Hotel and Snrgical Institute of Buffalo, N.

It is the only medicine which makes the coming of ba'iy safe and comparatively easy. In a personal letter to Dr. Pierce, Mrs. Marguerite Collin, of Cutler, Algoma Co., Ort., says: "I waa a uflfcrr and was cured by Dr. Pierce's wonderful medicine. When I com menced the medicine I could neither eat nor sleep. My hands and feet were constantly rold: I had a wasting, troublesome drain for thrre months "tod my monthly period were never regular. 1 took 1. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion and K cured me. I feel well. I thank the World's Dispensaiy Medical Association," It Is noticed that women are reading much more serious bonks than they were TOTIt to do.
