Spain, once wealthy, proud and haughty, is now certainly tbe most meek and lowly of all nations that - ever made pretense to place a nd power. It was with this self-evident spirit manifest that tha Spanish commission ers at Paris last Monday sanctioned and signed the documents which rend ers their country helpless and humble, sad transferred to American owner ship the island of Cuba, the Lsdrone islands and the Philippine archipelago. It is not difficult for Spain to find the cause of her downfall. She need not leave her own borders. The cause exists within her own people and officers. TJ.ur policy, past and present, has been one of terror, deception and fraud, and the culmination of such a policy could have been nothing short of what it is. Bight and decency will prevail against the shafts of vice and cruelty, and no existing power can long detain its predomination. A brief reference in a political sense will prove this assertion. Tbe policy of the United' States has been and is snch as to recommend a continuation of the course sin. ply because it has been right in all matters pertaining lo good gov eroment and the elevation of man kind. A striking illustration of this is seen in the actions of the American people within tbe last half century or less. The great war of the rebellion was the culmination of a cherished policy not greatly nnlike that of Spai to oppress, enslave and keep thu masses in ignorance, and the result of that war was the uplifting of human uy, me ireedora ol souls and tbe en lightenment of the people, because it was Christian and right; and such policy, we believe will prevail. We aee in tbe recent occurrences the les ion taught us when tbe protectant church was established many hundred years ago; when our forefathers estab lished a free and independent govern ment on American soil, and when tbe cause of slavery failed in our own land. All these things succeeded be cause they were right, and this nation has gone steadily onward performing these Christian functions because they were Christian. The same thing may be said of our own policies in recent years. Vicious governments! ideas and policies have been advocated and an attempt made to force them upon the American people in right recent years, but tbey failed because they were vicious and wrong. Tbe Ameri can people being a free and Christian people, striving for the elevation and betterment of mankind, turned down such policies at borne as our nation has caused to be turned down in a foreign land. Spain could have hoped for nothing better because her policy at home has been un-Cbristianlike. perhaps by cars for that matter. Cer tainly present prospects would warrant such a surmise, as the lumber and log- j!ag busSnea oa tha Columbia riv and the entire Pacific coast never had brighter prospects in store. Not ouly is this the case, but conditions have undergone such a wonderful revolt tion within the past few years a to render this point in the lead as a wood supply center for the city of Portland, and certainly facilities tor supplying this demand will naturally increase, whioh means the expenditure of large sums of money, not only for its prop- aration but for its maintenance. The section of country from Scappoose north to Rainier, and even below that point, with tbe country tributary to the Columbia river for eight or ten miles into the interior will certainly see a great revival in the logging and wood business within the next year or two, and the benefit to the people oan scarcely be estimated. These sugges tions are prompted by passing events and prospects and it will be but a brief period of time, in our opinion, when these fancies will be realities. MAMunm,mi aa.ii aa a s a sa a a . a . i OF GENERAL IHTEEEST. PRESENT AMD FUTURE COHDITIQHS. Adjacent to St. Helens arj several very valuable bodies of timber, not withstanding the fact that tbe cutting and marketing of timber has been tbe chief industry of this neighborhood ever since the founding of this town nd the first development of the coun try around it. The most accessible timber, as a natural consequence, was long ago utilized, and lor this reason we may reasonably expect a greater degree of development by more mod ern methods. This latter condition of affairs might have been realized sev eral years ago but for reasons appar ent to everybody no market or no price for logs. The timber now acces sible lies several miles from St. Hel ens, but this town muBt be its market place and tbe supply center for tbe forces and plants which will prepare it for market. Of course tbe old-time methods will be replaced by more modern means of utilizing this natural resuurce as a means of stimulating business, and the time is at hand for renewed efforts. The people here shouts need not be surprised if at an early dafe manufacturing plants are placed in operation in the forests nesr this town, and their products conveyed here by means of lara flumes, and A new bank is to be established bv Californlana in Honolulu. This will mean a chain of banks extending nearly a third of the distance around the globe, beginning with ths banks of Newfoundland, passing the baaks of the Wabash, and ending somewhere on the banks of the Sandwich islands, far Hawaii. i Now that the county court has de cided to purchase a portable sawmill to be used in planking the roads, there should be no roads ordered opened ex cept where tbey will be of a permanent nature, and where they will be neces sary for the accommodation of all. We think it is a wise movement on the part of the county eourt and one tbat will be appreciated by every pro gressive citizen of the county. Tilla-T moo Herald. A move is on foot to secure a bounty from the state on beet sugar made within the state from Oregon grown beets. This is only another scheme hatched to secure something for noth ing. II the beet industry does not pay, let the growers of this product plaut something else. State money appropriated for bonuses, bounties and to pay members of useless commissions large salaries for doing nothing is be coming altogether too common in Oregon. An exchange gives the following discertation of fusion : "A Kansas fe male horse who was tbe mother of a mule colt watched oven' her offspring witn care and solicitude, hoping tbat it would soon develop into the likeness of her family; bat one day when the colt was getting well grown it turned loose loud brays.wbereupon the mother said sadly: 'Alas, this is the result of fusion; I thought I could raise you for a horse, but whenever you open your mouth you speak like an ass.'

An editor who died of starvation aftsr making Dr. Tanner asharasd of himself, was being escorted to heaven by an angel who had been sent for that purpose. "May I look at ths other p ace befort we ascend to eternal happiness t" asked ths editor. "Yes," said the angel. So they went be low and skirmished around taking in ths sights. The angel lost sight of the editor and went around hades to hunt him up. He was found by a big furnsoe fanning hlru aril and sauna- with people in the fire. There was a sign upon tbe furnace which read "Delinquent bub- sc n tiers." "Get a move on you," said ths angel, must so.'1 "You go on," said ths editor, "I am not coming.

There is not ths need that need to be sup posed of doing the work in s single dsy, so tbat fermentation could not begia untij after ths top was covered with some weight to press the silage together. The effect of fermentation is to liberate carbonic acid gas. This is heavier than ths common sir, and therefore remains in ths alio unless there Is a hole near the bottom to send in a current of fresh air. Ths greatest care should be taken to see tbat insects or mice ksve not drilled boles through the wood work of tbe silo during tbe time It has been unoccupied.
