A Houston, Texas, mill man has
been almost paralyzed by the receipt
of an er.qiiiiy from the city of Mexi
co for the billion feet ot lumber,
more stuff than is to be found today
ia all the yards of Texas, Louisiana
and Aikansas, equivalent to the out
put of three hundred mills for seven
months. Iiut the Texas uiu is not
to be bluffed. He is making airange
ments to negotiate for tho whole
order. That fhows two things: The
magnitude of the lumber interests of
the South and the nerve of the
Southern lumberman. Mobile Reg
ister. The Texas man can fill the order,
and plenty more like i'., in Oregon,
if he Kill put up the mills, says the
Statesman. Here, in the Cascades
and in the Coast range of mountains,
are virgin forests that will make
lumber by the billion feet and good
lumber; belter for mcst purposes than.
can be found iu the South.
There is bound to be great activity
in the Oregon lumber busine;s, and
thai in the near future. Its devel
opment has only just begun. The
big railroads of the East, and other
Eastern consumers i f lumber, have
scarcely jet leurued of the excellence
of quality and the abundance of the
supply. They are taking all of it
they can get. and they will take
more as last as the mills are put up
to saw it.
the war may bring to the African
continent will depend not only on
whether the victory goes lo England
or to tae Boer allies, but also on
w hether the lloers In England's own
territory Join, their brethren iu the
field. A lirilisU victory, if it comes,
will probably wipe out tho inde
pendent existence not only of the
South African ItepuMic, but of
the Orange Fiee Slate. If the Afri
kanders of the rest of the continent
fiht against England to any import
ant extent there will be a strong
tempUtton for England, in the gen
eral political adjustment at the end
of the war, to erect new political and
administrative divisions of teriilory.
ami to abolish, temporarily at all
events, some of the privileges which
tho people of that territory now
possess.
Nobody need look for intervention
by any of the other powers unless
the war should last longer than any
one now looks for, but there is much
jealously of and hatred toward Eng
land on the continent of Europe, and
a long war might incite some coali
tion against her. The effect on
geueial business which the war may
exert will also largely depend on the
war's result aiid duration. If Eng
land wins, ami wins quickly and the
majority of unbiased persons through
out the world probably believe she
will the effects of the conflict, be
yond a temporary flurry on the
speculative exchanges nt the outset,
and the temporary suspension in the
outflow of gold from the Transvaal,
are not likely lo be serious.
Lincoln's ton Hubert, the ex-rccro
tary of war.
Lincoln had around him great
men, notably ScwarJ and Stanton,
but no one of them approached tho
president in breadth of view, policy
and common sense. Harlan made
no particularly deep uiaik on bis
times, and for twenty yean 1ms been

TIIE AXULO-TRAXUVAAL WAR
In taking the aggressive at the
start the Koer show that they do not
lack courage, at any rate, snys the
Globe-Democrat. Neither party to
the conflict is as well prepared ss it
wants to be, but the unprepsredness
is greater on England's side than it
is on that of its opponent. Further
tlelay would help England and hurt
the Transvaal. Double the number
of Iiriiish soldiers now in South
Africa will be on hand by two or
three weeks from this dale. Mani
festly the Boers' chances for a suc
cessful resistance are better today
than they could be when the 20,000
or 30,000 extra tioos arrive from
England and its possessions.
At the outset in ihe struggle sev
eral questions in connection with it
will suggest themselves to the world.
What will he, the immediate result of
the war? Whtt will be its ultimate
consequences on the politics of the
African continent i How will it
effect the attitude of the other great
nations toasrd England? I inally,
what influence will it have on the
world's business condition ? Each of
these queries is rather difficult to
answer wiih any confidence. ft
would aeeru that the vast British
empire ought to lie nble to crush lh';
South African K public and the
Orange Erie Stale iu a few months
at the outside.
In the war of 1880-5(1, when the
Boers were vidirilfitis, Gladstone, a
man of eiice, who was also opposed
to the imM-rial idea, was at the head
of the Bntisb government, and his
truce with ihe Boers after their
triumphs i. (Tended a large proportion
of his countiymen. The present
premier, though also a (rence man, Is
an inix-rialist. and in his ministry
there is Ihe most pronounced jingo !
whom England has known In any j action came, when he usually did

The recent ceath of James Harlan
recalls the fact that he was tho Inst
link connecting the administrstion
of Lincoln with the present time,
sajslhe Spokcman-Rcview. He
the sole survivor of the group of men
whom the great war president called j
to bis side during the troubled days
of civil war.
The original Lincoln cabinet con
sisted of William H. Seward as sec
retary of state, Salmon I Chase as
secretary of the treasury, Simon Cam
eron as secretary of war, Caleb B.
Smith as secretary of the interior,
Gideon Welles as secretary of the
navy, Montgomery Blair as post
master general, and Edward Bites as
attorney general. Of these only
Seward and Welles remained in the
cabinet until the death of Lincoln.
Lincoln had three secretaries of
Ihe treasury Chase, Eessendcn nnd
McCulloch; two secretaries of war
Cameron and Edwin M. Stanton;
three secretaries of the interior
Smith, John 1. Usher and James
Harlan; two postmasters general
IS'air and Dcnnison, and two attor
neys general Bates and J.n. Speed.
The cabinet of Lincoln was never
harmonious. Seward, Chase, Cam
eron and Biles bad been mentioned
for the presidency in 1x01, and all of
them hoped to gel the nomination in
1804. Chase was esjieciully aggres
sive, and during his entire control of
the treasury department was woiking
to undermine his great thief. There
were strained relations between Chase
and Lincolo almost from the first,
but Lincoln was a broad gauged man,
appreciated Chase's splendid work in
handling finances, and not till 1 801
did he admit that Chase's usefulness
in the cabinet was at an end.
Of all the presidents since Jackson,
Lincoln depended the least upon his
cabinet to fid him in shapiniz the
policy of his administration, unless
it was Mr. Cleveland. Lincoln was
ways at odds wiih his ministers,
inn lie nllowcil ct.Ii to r Ins way
and always waited until tho lime for
with the descendants of Dutch settlers
in South Africa, calling on Presi
dent McKinley to protect them
against the aggressions of tho Eng
lish. The Philadelphia Times, com
menting on this Incident, says: "Tho
members o the Holland society are
all right in theory, but fo logic of
history is against them. They are
themselves living examples of the
general proposition that when Eng
lish and Dutch get in one territory,
the English will get on top. The
Dutch in New Amsterdam were there
by right, and very good people they
were. But the hng'isu were loo
many for them ami New Yolk be
came an Englirli colony. And the
Dutch that remained there were
better off for the change. Though
the situation is not in all respects
parallel, there is an obvious analogy
in the case of the Boers, except that
the latter are by t o means ihe equals
of Ihe energetic ancestors of the
Holland society, and much less able
lo stand in the way of the expansion
of English influence."

Ilowrver, one may tak this diclnni,
llnrty-
fle. When everyone interested en
deavored to persuade him that no show
could b given iu The Dalles which Is
worth more ihsu 75 rents, he anserd
that he could not affrd t jlay such a
company for less than tl.
lo view of all these promises a good
houi-e gree'.ed them Saturday night at
the lUldwin, and were illy riared lo
find but twelve persons iu Ihe company
and ouly one of the former rant, and
co'tuinrs which were decidedly tawdry :
and above all to have them play if
they were asleep or practicing, tillering
during the entire performance. In the
first place it was announce I that lire al
I'ocatello had destroyed their cueliimes,
and that twenty "artists" had heen sent
on to Portland, and the lenience of the
audience se rc)iietid. And yet each
one had paid II Willi Ihe eiprcUm y of
gelling at least 50 rents worth. If they
were not in a condition to play, why,
in justice to those who bad lent their
aid in securing an aiidiumte, and In Net
to all concerned, Jid they not cunccl
their engagement.
The principal dixappointinent was
thai the c m:rdi.ins, a ho meant so modi
