in n Article on tbe twentieth cen
tury Dr. Depew My that electricity
will be applied to conduct mil trans
portation by land and Be a and to run
all machinery on land. The doctor
hat looked into this aubjeot aa deeply
aa any one, and his opinion i decided
ly that of a practical man.
Thi state us levy haa been placed
at 4.8 mill. Tbe county and school
levy will be fixed by tbe county court
when it meets next Tuesday in ad'
journed term. The levy lor all pur
poses has been variously estimated at
from 28 to 30 mills. In addition to
this many school districts will vote a
special tax of from 5 to 10 mills, which,
in such districts, will be added to the
general levy.
Is bis sermon recently Dr. Parkhnret
said : "We are respiring everywhere
an atmosphere of distrust. There is
among all classes a sense of instability.
Nobody knows what is coming." If
all nationa followed the example of the
United States in minding its own busi
ness, and contending that arbitration
of doubtful boundaries is better than
brute force, muou of the prevailing
unrest would disappear.
Modem banking facilities were il
lustrated in the recent transaction in
tbe Bank of England, by which China
paid to Japan an indemnity of z4,
500,000 in cold. The coin would have
loaded thirty-five wagons with a ton
each, bat the handling of one piece of
paper so meed to transfer tbe money
from Cbica's account to the credit of
Japan, the whole proceeding occupy
ing but a few minutes.
Fudckick Coudsrt, of the Vsne
anela commission, saya it would be
strange if the United States and Eng
land should come to blows about a re
fusal te arbitrate a boundary question
when "the two nations concerned have
both placed themselves on record for
years past as favoring the settlement
of international differences by arbitra
tion." The United Slates, at all
events, hta not shifted it ground.
form. We do not dispute the fact
that there are many able men in the
district, but this class of men without
doubt recognise in Mr, Ellis a faithful
servant, and are apparently willing to
continue mm in ins position be now
occupies. Mr. Ellis has set on foot
some good work for Columbia county,
ana it would be a direct loss to our
people to have him replaced bv a new
and inexperienced man at this time.
TSS NECESSITY OF WAS.
There is a good deal of loose and
maudlin talk about the alleged dutv
of ChrUtain nations to maintain peace
ana prevent war under all circum
lances, says the St. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat. In a general way, unquestion
ably, such nations are morally bound
to settle their controversies amicably,
Arbitration is preferable to fighting.
ana the present spirit ot civilisation is
against the policy of resorting to arms
except in case of absolute necessity.
uut tne necessity does some times
come. It haa come to us in several
instances, and we have met it in away
better than avoidance would have
been at the cost that was demanded.
Those who insist that war is never ius
tifiable overlook the fact that it takes
two parties to make a quarrel, so it
uses two parties to effect a peaceful
settlement, mo nation dares to say
that it is for peace under all condi
tions, for that would be to invila con
tUnt insult and injury. It is all very
well to talk about tbe possibility of ad
justing every difficulty- without com'
bat and bloodshed ; bat the sober truth
that the friendship of nations is
based upon the distinct nndersUnding
tnat they are severally ready to de
fend their rights and protect their in
teres ts, by going to war whenever the
necessity arises, and Christian nations
are net different from heathen ones in
this respect.
A war between the United States
and Great Britain would be a lament
able occurrence, of course, sad nobody
wants it to ensue if it can be bonor-
bly and properly avoided ; but it is
easy to imagine a situation that would
make it a necessity and warrant the
acceptance of it, with all of the hor
rors, as the choice of the lesser of two
evils. The relations of these two coun
tries are closer than those of any other
two important countries in the world.
it is true, but their interests are not
entirely mutual. They are rivals to a
certain extent, and that which is an
advantage to one is not always an ad'
vantage to tbe other. Their institu
tions. sentimenU and purposes differ
in many ways, and sharp conflict from
Urns to time is ineviuble. It is folly
to regard their kinship as an assurance
of peace, ibey are separate peoples
in their national characteristics, their
forms ot government, and their poli
cies of trade and progress. It is to be

8ittli, Jan. IX Ten days of suffering
from cold and privation on a rooky bluff,
during which lima seven of the crew, In
cluding the captaiu and the mate, met
their death, and the other mate and a
man, terrible accidents, tells tbe Ule of the
wrecking of the big four-masted English
ship Jeanette Cowan, on Vancouver Island,
otherwise known as the "Boneyard of the
Pacific Ocean." This frightful news was
brought to the city this afternoon by the
tog Tyee, which only a tew hours before
had landed fourteen members of the ill-
fated crew at Port Townsend.
Tbe officers of the tug tell a most horri
fying story of the wreck and of tbe erew
and iU surroundings aa found by them.
The vessel struck New Years day. Cap
tain Thompson died several days after the
ship struck the reef, and the cook and an
able seaman snd the man who ran the
donkey engine died the following day, the
latUr becoming violently Insane. The
other three men who lost their lives were
the second mate and two apprentice boys.
Nine members of the crew were left on the
shore in a cabin, about a mile north of the
place where the ship went on the reef.
The Tyee first sighted tbe wrecked ship
Saturday afternoou on releasing a tow. She
was plainly outlined on the shore of Van
couver Island, and could not be mistaken.
Captain Gove made for the ship with all
possible baste, and was soon in close prox
imity.
No sign of the erew could be seen en the

and a start was made for the ship, which
was standing up majestically, her three
lower topsails set and head-on straight to

Hall and Hawkins steered their boats for
the bow of the abip, under whioh was a
clear passage to the port side.
Once on that side a portion of the erew
could be seen on top of a high bluff, on
which a tent had been pitched. A rope
ladder had been taken off the ship and
fastened to the top ot the bluff, making a
stairway by which the men could climb
from the shore to their abode.
A landing was effected with little diffi
culty, the big iron ship breaking the force
of the wares, and the rescuers scaled the
bluff. A sight met their eyes that will not

If the salaries of public officials are
too high it is not the fault of the of
' ficial but of tbe law regulating the
same. The place to remedy the evil
is in the law making department of
tale. In fact, there seeius little diver
sity of opinion but that public serr
ants, to far as possible, should be paid
fees for their services, and when found
that the fees are bizber than neces
sary, reduce them to abasia consistent
with the work performed, but by all
means let it be fee instead of a salary
basis. The old fee system proved very
satisfactory, save that the fees were
too high, but if the fees had been re
duced to a minimum compensation
for the labor performed, the service
would have been better, and greater
satisfaction wonld prevailed.
The Oregonian says while there is
do promised land, and while El Dorado
is m thing of tbe imagination only,
there is yet room for many hundreds
of sturdy, self-reliant farmers, who
would avoid at once the cold of Dakota
and tbe heat of Louisiana, drouths and
bliixards, as well as exhausted soil
and nncongenial society. There is a
state of whose 60,000,000 acres not
more than 2,000,000 acres are in crops
and orchards; whose society is north'
era, and has always been free; whose
climate is neither severe nor enervat
ing. Such a place and each a state is
Oregon, which opens its arms and
reaches out its welcoming hand to tbe
toilers of 1896 as honestly, cheerfully
and hopefully ss it did in tbe day ef
tbe pioneer.
aibiuty of such a misfortune exists,
nevertheless, and cannot be removed
sentimental means. The cloud
tbat is now visible may not portend
the worst; but it presents a grave
chance of tbat sort, and a lack of wis
dom on the part of Great Britain may
mate war a necessity, in spite of all
that can be said about the dutv of
Christian nations to arbitrate their
disputes
WITS TBS SAKE RESULT.
It is not plain just what good would
be accomplished by a special session
of the legislature at this time. It is
true there are many evils which might
be corrected by the legislature, but it
is none tbe less true that these same
evils existed when the legislator, was
in session one year ago, but little was
accomplishedjn the direction of right
ing them. Jbvery measure proposed
by one party was opposed by the other.
f ropositiona advanced by one faction
was also strongly opposed by the other
faction. To reconvene the same legis
lature would be to invite tbe same op
posing tactions to undertake a work
which they failed or refused to agree
upon in tbe session last year, and tbe
result wonld no doubt prove the same,
ultimately, while tbe expense of tbe
extra session would be considerable.

expression of utter hopelessness and mis

scene was transformed into one of hope.
The castaways jumped to their feet and
embraced their rescuers.

to a boatswain's chair, suffering from a
fractured left, received from falling down

went ashore, told Hate Halt, ot the Tyee.

108 days out when she reached Cape Flat
tery, December 29. There was a terrible
storm off the cape, and the vessel stood off
two days before trying to corns in. Then
she was driven quickly to the northward
by a strong southwest wind, and sought
shelter in the treacherous waters of Bar
clay aonnd to avoid being driven ashore on
some more exposed point. The sound
offered little shelter, and she was driven on
the rocks at high tide. This was 2 o'clock
in the morning on December 81, and a
snow storm was coming on. Tbs ship
seemed to be breaking In two. and it
decided to leave her at once, and, with the
aid of a line made fast ashore, the entire
erew waa taken off.

Thi postage stsmp has a rival A
new device has recently been adopted
by the German postal authorities
which does entirely away with tbe tra
ditional postage stamp. For it has
substituted a machine which registers
by dies the time and date of preparing
each letter for the mail, and marks on
the letter the number of tbe person or
firm who is using tbe machine and
also the rate of postage the letter
should pay. Each commercial house
or individual who makes use of the
system has a machine and with it
tamps letters as fast as they are sent.
At the end of the week or month tbe
local postal authorities will figure up
each customers account nd send him
a bilL having provided, in all proba
bility, for the payment of it by getting
a substantial deposit ahead.
Thekk seems to be a formidable op
position springing into existence in
some parts of the district against tbe
renoiuination of Congressman Ellis,
but in summing up ths situation it is
plainly seen tbat where this opposition
originates is in localities where there
are local aspirants for tbe place. There
is little doubt but what every county
in the district which has no candidate
for congressional honors, will heartily
support Mr. Ellis in tbe convention.
Tbe spoils of office, therefore, seems
to be about the only motive prompting
the candidacies springing up in many
parts of the district. Mature judg
ment in the convention, however, will,
no doubt, set at rest the minds of the
ever self-sacrificing array of aspirants
looking for fat snaps regardless of the
of it tbe remodeling of many laws
now on our statute books, and amend
ments to many others. But to ac
complish this there must be unini
mity of sentiment, as nearly ss possi
ble, with one common object in view,
without which little can be accom
plished. Legislators are not selected
to serve the individual or personal
desires of a few, but on the contrary,
tbe varied interests of tbe different
sections demand unselfish attention.
A legislature elected with such an
outline in view could accomplish much
good, but to reconvene tbe present
legislature would be to witness the
old quarrels over sgain, without any
oenenciai result.
