In last week' resume of trade con ditions in the United Ststes every condition contributing to the unex ampled activity 10 industrial circles was touched upon but war, snys the Sokesu5n-Keview. Viewed from the standpoint of taxation war is not the greatest of blessings. In the lijiht of Christian ity the continuation of hostilities is in some quarters violently opposed, in others regarded as a necessary evil. In family circles war is a hor rible nigh'.nsaie when a member of ' the household is in t :e trenches or on j the firing line. But the existence of war has been a potent factor in the advance of wages and the demand for labor. From an army of 25,000 men the military forces of the United States have grown to 100,000. Ad ditions to the navy have piobably taken 10,000 more able bodied men from the ranks of wage earners. The removal of nearly 100,000 men from scenes of industrial conjpetion can not fail to have a marked effect on the labor market. A considerable portion of the new- volunteers nre men who love a roving life and care little for steady manual employment in the more peaceful arts. This class . is removed from the floating popula tion and just so many non-producers are taken from the li.Us. The labor er and the artisan are well repre sented in the army and their places in factories are filled by men hereto fore crowded out by keen competi tion in the labor market. The va cancits thus created by enlistment of 3-oung, able-bodied men have re quired nearly all the available mate rial left at home to fill the gap, hence there has been increase in wages for the more tkil'.ed and steady employ ment for the unskilled who are in dujtrious at wages which permit laying uo a few dollars when the week's bills have been paid. Activity in the shipyards, employ ing thousands of men; the call for uniform and other clothing, makes an immense business for tailors and seamstresses; the call for drugs and goods of every description from other producers has created placfs for so large a per cent of men and women idle heretofore that business in every branch of trade and manufacturing must be better. All these conditions enhance the prosperity which has come with our increasing foieigu inaikets. Indeed, they have created a situation which makes it Impossible to fully supply the home demand in a number of ar ticles, iron and steel being most prominent. The vast sums of money put into circulation create building booms by capitalists who find them selves wiih more cash on hand than they can loan. The necessity for borrowing is reduced because the manufacturer and the business man do business more nearly on a cash basi. Eventually this money must come out of the pockets of the people through taxation, but . it is not im probable that gain accruing from the impetus given all manner of industry will more than offset the losses and the burdens entailed. Certain it is that the entire nation has about out grown the period of overproduction and the distress of a few years ago. If the foreign trade continues to grow there will lie work in plenty for the soldier of lodny who comes back next year to take up the broken threads of civilian existence. who Las traveled in the West las told him that Roosevelt is the most popular man In the country except ing the president. After such a nice indorsement for a presidential term that is still five years in the distance, what can Governor Roosevelt do but tell the Ohio Republicans that he is for McKmley, and that they ought to carry the state this fall as a send-off I to his re nomination and re-election next year. It is very evident that Colonel Dick is offering future presi dential honors to Roosevelt in ex change for present help to carry Ohio in McKiuley's interest. riula delphia Times. Colonel Dick is not promising the impossible; and his frienJ has told him the truth about the sentiment in the AVest. The offer, tact, or ex plicit, is by no means impossible of fulfillment. Stranger things have happened. It took President Mc Kiniey more than five years to rculize on some of the promises of support for the presidency. lie was a prom inent candidate for the nomination in the Republican natioual conven tion at Chicago, eight years before his successful run of 1896, at St. Louis and at the former date ex Governor Z.

It is not often, in fact, that presidential candidates nre jumped up on thort notice, residential timber needs to be seasoned.

Secretary Tozier of the Oregon Press Association, fays regarding the meeting of the national association here: "The real value of the Portland meeting to the state of Oregon will never be known, but that great good will result all will admit. As an il lustration as to the value of such a meeting in the way ot advertising I will state that after Portland was f elected for the 1899 meeting I be gan saving all press clippings that I could secure if the article referred to the 1899 meeting of the N. E. A., and up to August 15, I had saved 5,800 feet, or over one mile of press notices. Putting a low estimate up on this maltei I consider that it is reasonably worth $58,000. And while I am in the best position, per haps, of any one in the National As sociation to receive these clippings, I am of the opinion that I have re ceived not one-sixlh of all notices. I think that I am making a fair esti mate when 1 say this. Therefore, I believe that up to the present time the Northwest has received the bene fits as a direct result of this meeting in Portland of advertising that is reasonably woith, if given out by an advertising agency fully $318,000.

It Is Worth While. PEACE IS WASTED. HTRASUE THISOS. Colonel Dick, the chairman of the Republican state committee of Ohio, is evidently hoping for a great deal from Governor Roosevelt's coming visit to Ohio to participate in the Republican slate campaign. He has interviewed himself to say be ex pects Roosevelt to be the Republican candidate for president in 1904, add ing that to unnamed friend of his What is wanted in the Philippines ".st is peace, and, after pacification, the introduction of good government which shall insure protection for life aud property and civic and religious liberty under the American Dag, says the Review. The government has given an ob ject lesson of the futility of attempt ing the establishment of local econo my before the Tagal revolt has been wiped out by force of arms. The mayors of Balinag and San Tedro have been found aiding the recruit ing service of Aguinaldo. These mayors, of course, are regarded by sympathetic Americans ns heroes, but the fact that such officials have proven treacherous shows that it will be better to defer the settling up of municipal governments under na tive auspices until all organized re volt in Luzon is annihilated. General Otis has permitted thous ands of self-styled friends to come within our lines and even into Ma nila, where they secretly obtain sup plies and play the part of spies for the Katapunan secret organization, and make their living at our expense. War is war, and war it is in Luzon, and the tide of pretended friends There is eiill another way ia which The Dalies may be benefited if her citi zens Fee fit to give it their attention. Not simply to call a meeting, appoint committees and resolute, but by doing the necereary woik in a bueincrg-like manner. Our attention has been called to the fact that the road leading to Prineville by the way of Warm Springs is much need at present by teamsters in coming to The Dalles, and is preferred by many because it ia shorter. Theroare, however, a few improve ments which it is necessary to make, and if Dalles people would aceist in this work, much benefit would be reaped thereby. The people In the vicinity of White river grade have determined to make needed repairs there, and besides the bridge at Warm Springs is badly in neul of Improvements, and also the grade on the other side of Deschutes. The agent at Warm Springs is anxious that the road be Improved and will do all in his power to that end. It would be well were our citizens to look Into the matter. Yarns for Sale. Another Shooting Scrape Near Antelope. Were it not for Antelope and its vicin ity the Dalles papers would have few rec ords of shooting scrapes to chronicle; but just so often from that section come arcounts of such affairs having takin place at or near that little town. The latest was last evening when the sheriff received word thatThos. Moran had been shot on Trout creek, iu Crook county near the county line, and that Dr. Pilkington had been called. Also that an old man bad done the shooting and had gone to Prineville to give himself up. No further particulars were received until this afternoon when a deputy at Antelope telephoned that the doctor had returned, bringing the newsthat Moran, who is a sheep-herder, and a man by the name of Frank Finnell, who is past middle age, were drinking and, as usual in such cases, had gotton into a quarrel, when the latter shot him. The doctor says there Is small hope of his recovery. i lie sheriff then telephoned to Sheriff Gray to inquire whether Finnell had reached Prineville, but was answered to the contrary ; but a deputy ha I been sent out to capture him. The full details will probahlv be re ceived by tomorrow morning, and will no doubt prove to te the samo old story which is always the tesnlt of a diunken quarrel. rub) to School Announcement.
