Thi wrong of Ireland are) email iu
comparison wilb those ol Cuba. Spain
ha practiced ev.ry conceivable meth
od ol extortion and opprecwon, where
he should havs acted a frinndly and
beneficial part, and the Cnbans have
the best of reason for breaking away
from her.
The new United 8tatee ram Katah
din ha gone into commission with a
crew of ninety men and even officer.
This ship has some novel features,
and just what it can accomplish in a
sea fight is a matter of conjecture.
But its purpose is to go straight at an
invading fleet and try conclusions.
Thi commercial invasion of the
United States by Japan is imminent.
Her manufacturers are indomitable,
and it seems that the Japanese are
not disDoeed to buy anything abroad
whioh thev can make at home. The
balance of trade between Japan and
the United States seems permanently
gainst ns.
Schatob MrroHUX has secured a
favorable report from the senate com
mittee on privileges and election on
bis joint reeolutioa proposing an
amendment to the constitution pro-
Tiding for the election of senator by
a direct vote of the people. There is
little doubt that the resolution would
vacs the house if that body were given
an ODDortunitv to vote 03 it, but its
fate in the senate is uncertain.
Fbkhch editors are always comic
when they mention names and places
in America. One of them says Spain
will not retreat before "Sherman, the
brother of the slayer of the Colorado
Indians." The Frenchman had Sher
idan and the Piegana in mind. Victor
Hugo referred to Grant as the ezecn
tioner of John Brown, a statement
supposed to have some relation to the
fact that Le commanded the troops
that captured Brown.
Let the old men, if their memories
co back to I860, recall the old hard
ware store, and they will recall that
on the shelves 95 per cent, came from
England and 5 per cent, were pro
duced in the United States. Let them
go into the hardware store of 1892,
and they will find that upon the
shelves of that hardware merchant 5
per cent, is from abroad, 95 per cent
made at home by American working
men. Yes, made in American shops
by American workingmen from Amer
loan raw material. McKinley.
A few months sgo an American
with commercial instincts arrived in
Yokohama with a collection of sam
ples of American jackknives sufficient
to stock a country fair. He announced
that be had come to Japan to build
up American trade. He did not re
main long, and now it is advertised
that be has turned up in San Francis
co with a stock of samples of Japanese
manufactured goods prepared to knock
the American market silly. Hs is
able, be say, to lay down all sorts of
(foods in California, duty paid, at from
thirty to fifty per cent less than the
same clags of articles can be manufac
tured in America.
Ok the strength of the experiment
with the Roentgen ray a scientist has
corns forward with a pamphlet to
claim that the sun is not an inconceiv
able hot body, but a habitable globe
With an ideal climate. It sends to the
earth vast currents of electricity which,
in pasting through our atmosphere,
are converted into light and heat.
According to this theory the earth is
magnet, solarized in space, and be
tween all heavenly bodies exists an
interaction of electro-magnetic cur
rents. These currents from the sun
are fully returned to it, because the
reaction of the other heavenly bodies
equals the sum total of the sun's elec
tric discharges. In regard to the cre
ation of the earth, the authority has
no explanation to offer, hut be says
the tun is not going to roll off, man
will not disappear, nor will the earth
ever become a frozen ball on account
of the sun' loss of heat.
The county convention to take place
bere next Tuesday promises to be one
of more than ordinary importance,
since there are a number of candi
dates for several of the offices to be
filled. The contest for sheriff and
judge will be especially spirited, not
only because there are a number of
aspirant, but also because of the im
portance of the two positions ; and at
this time no one seems to have a cor
ner on the situation. It is a matter
which the convention only can settle,
and whatever the outcome in that
body, so long as it is a fair contest
should meet th. hearty sanction of
the party and the unsuccessful as
pirant. The one object of the con'
vention, however, should be to place
none save clean men npon the ticket;
men who will command the support
of the people on election day, and
men who are thoroughly competent
to perform the duties of the office to
which thej seek election. If this is
done the republicans need have no
fear of defeat at the poll. No point
should be lost eight of that would
tend to promote harmony in the party,
Which mean succes at the poll.
KxpriBUCAM auooess in Columbia
county this year depends entirely
upon the judgment displayed by the
county convention which meet next
Tuesday fn selecting candidate for
office to be voted for ou the nrst day
of June. This is naturally a republi
can year, but notwithstanding this
fact the personnel of the ticket will
decide the fate of the party in thi
county, and should anyone nominated
fail of election there will be no one
responsible except the nominating
convention itself. We do not pretend
to say who the candidates ought to be.
That matter can better be settled by
the delegates who are the representa
tives of the people from the different
precinots sent here for the especial
purpose of serving the interests and
wishes of those whom they are to rep
resent. The matter, for the time be
ing, U out of the bands of th& people,
so to speak, but the people are again
to be beard on election day to ratify
or disapprove the work ot their serv
ants ia the convention, and their
righurwill be asserted by the ballot on
that day. As stated before, this is lua
onably a republican year, and if only
clean, competent men are placed on
the ticket the result need not be
doubted. The people want efficiency,
and if we misjudge not publio senti
ment at this time they will vote only
for men whom they have a right to
expect will serve their wishes.
Thi framers of the federal consti
tution displayed great wisdom and
foresieht in pre pa rug that document,
and for a time it seemed to cover
every phase of conditions for the ex
istence of a great nation. But sa time
goes on new conditions confront the
people and nsw practices are required.
This seems especially true in the mode
of electing United States senators. The
time was, perhaps, in the beginning
of this government, when the present
method was most desirable, but even
then the plan was, to some extent,
contrary to a republican form of gov
ernment, because in a republio the
legislative branch of government
should be directly controlled by the
governed. All the while the United
Slates senate has been drifting further
away from the people until now that
law-making branch of the government
has almost pasied beyond the control
of the people. It seems absolutely
necessary, therefore, that our federal
constitution be so changed that the
people elect, not only United States
senators by direct vote, but all other
public servant as well.
With but one dissenting vote, that
of Bontelle of Maine, the house of
representatives last Tuesday passed
the Confederate disability bill, known
as Hill's bill to remove the restrictions
sgaiust the appointment, as officers
of the army and navy, of persons who
held commissions in the regular army
or navy before the rebellion, and who
subsequently took part in the war on
the side of the Confederacy, which
passed the senate during the height
of the excitement over the Venezuela
boundary question.

Astobia, March 20. One thousand fish

of salmon (or this season at 6 cents per

would strike. The Fishermen's Protective
Union also decided to incorporate that
body, and elected seven trustee. Harry

Call for County Democratic
CONVENTION.
THE Democrats of Columbia County are
hereby requested to meet in Conven
tion at Bt. Helens, Oregon, on Satnrday,
April 4th, 1886, at 1 o'clock P. M., foi the
purpose ot electing a bounty Committee,
appointing delegates to the State Con Ten-
tion and nominating a County Ticket for
the ensning June election.
It is desirable that all precincts of the
county should be represented; but owing to
me past nexieet to oold primaries, It Is now
deemed advisable for the county Democrats
to meet without the usual nioile of selection,
and leave to the Convention the test of the
qualification of its member, and- the pro
portionate representation of tb several
precincts of the county.

SPAIN IS GETTING ANXIOUS
Would Not Recognize United
States (Commission.
A. War With ThU Country Preferred
to Sacrificing; Her Interest la
the Island of Cuba.
Mapsid, March 22. La Epoca, the lead
ing Spanish ministerial organ, says:
"An extenalv examination of the ac
counts published by th leading American
newspaper of the debates in congress
show that, setting aside hypocrisy, th
real issues, as soma senator point out. I
whetlur th United State can take posse
sion of Cuba by force or not,
"K they can, why, let them declare war
agaiust us; let them set their fleet in mo
tion and send them to Cuba. They nsed
not doubt that we will teoelrs them as It
behooves u to do. It they cannot declare
war, then, as honorable members of con-
gresa have said, let these debates cease and
let Spain govern herself with th liberty
she i entitled to aud which uobody can
limit.
"Anything is better than to go on threat
ening and hiding under the vail of Jingoism
and th no longer fashionable Intentions
of those whose aspiration is th independ
ence of Cuba in order to obtaiu it annexa
tion afterward."
The Hersldo soya: ".Spain could never
officially recognise a United Slates commis
sion in Cuban affair. It is impossible that
President Cleveland should hav such sn
idea. War between Spain and America
would be preferable.
"Spain, in former times, has accepted the
consequences of a more terrible struggle
than would be war with the United States,
and w should prefer to risk a war to rec
ognizing a commission."
Almost all the newspaper hare pretend
to regard as unfounded the rumor that
President Cleveland will appoint a Cuban
commission, and they echo the sentiments
of the Heraldo on the subject. No official
intimation of such a commission has yet
reached here.
POINTED AND PERTINENT.
The New York World ia trying to put a
hoodo on Gov. McKiuley by predicting his
nomination.
It is difficult to see how respectable peo
ple can oppose a measure that will close
more than 0,000 of the worst saloons of
New York, as it is admitted that the Rais-
ens bill will uo.
Even a sturdy a fighter as Dr. Talmage
had to acknowledge complete defeat when
be ran up against th grippe.
The fool friend of the candidate is agnln
talking wherever he can get a reporter's
ear. He is by no means mpnopolized by
any one candidate.
A Belgium Indie goes un head of the er
mine class. He discharged a prince who
was proven to be guilty of several prison
able crimes, on the ground that be was suf
fering from "heriditarv degeneracy, and
without penal responsibility."
It will be safe enough for society to in
dulge in a Byron revival, provided it does
not include Byrontc nauits.
Newspaper enterprise is necessarily litn
ited in turkey, where the Sultan compelled
the editors to announce the assassination of
the president of Prance as a death from ap
oplexy.
The only fun the democrat can get out
of the anti-nomination campaign is by dis
cussing the probable republican nominee.
It don't matter about their ova, and the

Tbsre is a key which will unlock the
Cuban deadlock between congress and the
president, but it seem to have been tem-
ponaiiy misplaced.
Bismarck was born on April 1st. which
shows bow ridiculous it is to call it "All
Fools Day.
Mr. Cleveland seems a little shy about
announcing bis opposition to Cuban bellig
erency.
