I Among Chinese officials there Is evident an earnest desire to put u.i lend to the use of the deadly dr.ig J which Is rapidly sapping the energy and vitality of the Chinese, hut there is a disposition to disbelieve In th.' good faith of the Christian powers that have Joined to aid China lu the warfare on opium. The Chinese hav; not forgotten that It was these sue Christian powers that Introduced opium Into China, along with mission aries of the "white devils' " religion, and that when China protested against the hellish traftlc the guns of the warships were turned upon her cities and forts. So long as China Is addicted to opium the spirit of occi dental progress that Is now swooping over the empire will remain power less to accomplish the great ambition to make China a world power.

Dublin and other Irish cities have refrained from preparing loyal ad dresses to the Kngllsh King, although Cork and Walerford and other loyal ist towns have drawn up the conven tional Illuminated parchments of elaborate salutation. Despite Dub lin's refusal to accept the status quo. the welcome of the King to that ci'y will be most hearty.

She will receive many such addresses. 1 however, and a number ol valuable I gifts, including much Irish lace that 'has occupied hundreds of women many months In the making. Dingy old Dublin Castle has been put Into excellent condition for the visit of royalty.

July 0 If the tiv cuimcndatiiim' ol .Major Mcludoe to tlie War Department tie followed, the lo.-ks In the Willamette River at Ore gon City, owned by tho Portland Hallway. Light & Power Company, will be thrown on the junk heap., an eutliel) new canal and Bet of lo-ks will be built and tlie company be per mitted lo do with the old plant what ever It pleases, as booh as the new plant has been thrown open to use. Major Mcludoe has gone over the ground ear-fully and has had the advantage of the former examinations that have been made by army en gineers and private engineers In be half, ot the farmers of the Willam ette Valley. He 'was Instructed to report on the situation from an en gineering standpoint, and he has done so. without regard to the pri vate Interests involved, keeping in mind uppareutiy only the greatest good to the greatest number, and looking into the future to determine his tecommendatiotis. His report sets forth a? his pltn that the Federal Government and state government, acting under the provisions of statutes adopted by Congress and the Legislature for a joint appropriation of $;t00,0()0 y each to build a new canal and locks on tlie east side of the river; that tlie present locks remain In use, unrepaired, while the new locks r-re being built: and that when they have been built the old locks be dis posed ot as the power company who owns them wishes, Ot course, tills means that they would be useless: because the new locks are to lie free of tolls ou all freight that passes through them. It would be obviously Impossible for the company to collect tolls after the new locks wero built, because there would bo no freight to paBS through them. It would all go through tlie free Government lock3. Major Meludoo's reason. In part, at least, for this recommendation is that, were tlie old locks to be rebuilt on tlie west side of the river, two or thiee years would intervene during which no navigation could pass up or down the river; whereas bis plan provides for no Interruption ot traffic.

TO POST OFFICE. Late this afternoon tlie County Court appropriated $T00 for an ex hibit of Douglas County products at the coming State Fair, and $1000 for premiums on exhibits at the District Fair at Roseburg next September. Last year the Court appropriated $1, 000 for the combined purpose of ex hibits nt the State and District Fairs. A large delegation of local business men and citizens appeared before the County Court this afternoon and re quested "appropriations for the pur pose of making suitable exhibits of tlie county's products at the District and State fairs, and If posslblo at the Astoria Centennial from August 10 to September 10, 1911. I'nder the state law passed a few years ago the Countv Court Is authorized to appro priate $1000 annually for such ex hibits at the State Fair. Another act since passed, authorizes the appro priation of $2000 annually for Dis trict and County fairs. The splendid exhibit from this county at the State Fair last year, and the widespread favorable comment thereon, would seem to fully Justify the court In appropriating more than they did last vear for making exhibits nt these fairs and for premiums to competitive exhibitors at the District Fair here next September.

Same Condition In ('tiicuiro. CHICAGO. July 7. The cooling breozes faded at noon today, and this city Is again sweltering In the heat. Five deaths were reported this fore noon. Chicago is now facing a milk and ice famine. Only one-fourth of the orders could be tilled today, and es pecial efforts will be made to dis tribute this supply over as large a territory as possible. Cooling rains throughout the West, Northwest and Southwest yesterday received prompt attention of the Board of Trade. These showers gave a new lease of life to the vast corn belt, where the crop was withering, nnd the good news promptly melted the stiffening up of corn prices. While tlie atmosphere In the street h and open places here yesterday was delightful, the large buildings re mained like 'hake-ovens. It will re quire Bevern! days of coot weather to tako the intense heat out or the vast piles of stone, brick and iron. In Other Cities. BOSTON, July 7.

Ifoth wore rescued. PORTLAND. Or., July 6. Reports received at the offices of the Forest Service. State Forester aud Oregon Forest Fire Association covering nil parts of the state show that the re cent rains have not only extinguished forest fires which have been burning, but have materially lessened the chances of other fires starting for Ihe next few days. While no serious fires have occurred this season, the June dry spell resulted In a number of fires becoming started through slashings, fern patches and old burns which were dllllcult tu completely extinguish aud were being watched to prevent their spreading. The recent ruins have made It possible to take no further account of these fires. Patrolmen employed by the Forest Service, private timber owners and Oregon Forest Fire Association are now stationed in all parts of the state, although the full force will not be in the Held until tho middle of July. Already sou fire wardens have bem given state appointments as provided by law. These men, while receiving uo compensation from tho state, are responsible to the State Forester for enforcing the Ore luws, are author ised to issue burning permits and, if necesBftry, arrest those guilty of set ting out fires. it Is safe to say thnt not less than 500 men will be actively engaged n patrolling Oregon's timbered area EXTRADITION' "KIDXAPPIXO," SAYS DARHOW. LOS ANGELES, July 7. When Judge Bordwell's court reconvened this morning, the position of the de fense In the McNnmaras case regard Ing the plea as to jurisdiction of the court was further aetenaea Dy Attor neys Darrow and Scott. They at tempted to show that John Mc- Namara s case was different from every case passed on by the Supreme Court. It is unlikely thnt Judge Bordwell will pass on the plea of the defense concerning jurisdiction for Hcveral days yet. In his statement today, Darrow de clared thnt District Attorney Fred ericks swore falsely when he made an affidavit that John McNamara was a fugitive from justice. He asserted that the extradition of McNamara from Indianapolis was a "dastardly crime, without parallel," and was really kidnapping. REAL F, STATU TRANSFERS. M. T. Sherrett to Mary L.

The Slate Forester has appointed twenty supervising wardens who are under state pay and devote their en tire time to suppression of fires and enforcement of fire laws. The coun ties In which these men are located are: Benton, Clatsop, Clackamas, Culumbla, Coos, Crook, Douglas, Jackson, Klamath, Lake, Lincoln, Linn, Marlon, Multnomah, Polk, Til lamook, Union, Wallowa, Washing ton, Wheeler and Western Grant Yamhill, Baker, Harney, Malheur and EaBtern Grant. These wardens will Issue permits where there Is no local fire warden available, act as referee In case of any dispute over the advisability of issuing permits aud keep In touch with the volunteer tire wardens. lu addition to this they will fre quently Inspect locomotives and log ging engines burning fuel other than oil and see that proper spark arrest urs are niulutatued, as well as make such rules that old slashings are kept iu the surest possible condition. Copies of the law and other fire literature Is being freely distributed in the stale by the Government, state and private Interests seeking to re duce the (Ire dumuge. This, together with a better public sentnment lu favor of suppression of fires should result in their being far less frequent and damaging this summer than dur ing previous yea is.
