America for Americano, "lions; Hay
It wavo O'er tbn Home of the Free
and tbe Land of the Brave."
CHOSE AMU EFFECT.
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.

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

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

discertation of fusion : "A Kansas fe

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

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

editor.
"Yes," said the angel. So they went be
low and skirmished around taking in ths

The angel lost sight of the editor and
went around hades to hunt him up. He
was found by a big furnsoe fanning hlru

people in the fire. There was a sign upon
tbe furnace which read "Delinquent bub-

"Get a move on you," said ths angel,

fermentation is to liberate carbonic acid

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
