CHOPS HOT WHOLLY HUINKU.
looking the country over it is clear
that the crops in a farm majority of
states are in fair condition and that the
outlook is far better than haa been rep
resented. When fiery blasts are raging
at temperature of 107 in the shade it
is easy to imagine that the situation ia
desperate. But this ia a large country
with innumarable variations of weather
within ita limits. A drought is always
more or less localized. ITp to the begin
ning of the wheat harveet the crop con
ditions in all the states were hrat-ehiss.
Many of the states have not suffered ser
iously, and those where the heat has
been excessive and rains scanty one can
not tell just where they stand as to crop
not yet matured. But the picture of de
struction has been completely overdrawn
even in the sections where the drought
was worst. Abundant rains has put a
new face upon affairs. Cora ia, as the
secretary of agriculture says, a hot
weather plant. It will not come to a
?;reat deaf in cool climate. A three
ourths yield would go beyond 1,600,000,
000 bushels, and a crop of this size is
till quite possible.
The story of the hottest month on rec
ord in this country haa been largely col
ored by intense physical discomfort and
lists of prostrations. The vegetable
market haa suffered in some states, but
the loss in general crops has been largely
exaggerated. Sot one state in six has
suffered any excessive damage. When
the complete returns come in affairs
will brighten up wonderfully, even in the
worst drought centers. The talk of total
destruction anywhere haa been guess
work. Bnt pessimistic conjectures, no
matter bow slight their basis, tend to in
jure business. Great tiers of states have
bad no unusual drought. A few have
been injured by drv weather to an exteut
as yet nnknown. The size of the wheat
crop ia known, and it ia the largest on
record. Just wait for the facta. They I
are not iiaeiy in any case to interrupt
the high tide of prosperity. One soak
ing rain baa driven pessimists to cover.
SCHLEY'S EXONERATION.
There ia a scab politician in ihe em
ploy of tbe government, a clerk in the
Brooklyn navy yard, in disobedience of
ine ruies ui civu service, anu at me sac
rifice ot nis nonor and manhood, named
Edward S. Maclav. lately referred to a.
''Historian Maclav," who ia stirring up
a great deal of trouble and caueing much
expense Because ne misrepresented facts
concerning the battle of Santiago, in
which Admiral Schley is particularly
interested. Admiral Sampson is a jeal
ous old bigot, and Maclay's attack on
r-cbley's conduct ot that famous naval
struggle is no doubt the result of Samp
eon's prompting and dictation. The
attempt to impeach his purpose, dis
credit bis actions, question hia loyalty
or disregard the extent and restilt of
Schley's conduct at a time when a na
tion's destiny bung largely in the bal
ance ia extreme ingratitude prompted
by jealousy, and nothine more. Mr.
Sampson and Mr. Maclay may talk and
write until doomsday upon this matter.
and when all's said and done the two
men will be condemned and their utter
ances discredited, while Mr. Schley will
hold the respect, merit the praise and
command the attention of the American
people for a victory due largely to hie
excellent generalship and bravery,
bringing a result too glorious to cause
its author to be regarded with the
slightest scintilla of disrespect. In re
spect to whether or not Mr. Schley acted
with cowardice during the progress of
the battle, aa charged in Maclay's his
tory of the event, Captain Eulate, who
cominanueo me Spanish cruiser V izcaya,
. mat, ume, says: i cannot appreci
ate any maneuver of the Brooklyn in
the battle in front of Santiago as an act
of cowardice. The maneuver, consider
ering the position of the other American
ships, was a proper one." And the fur
ther fact that the Brooklyn inflicted
68 per cent of the damage done to the
Spanish fleet, and received 54 per cent
of the damage sustained by tbe Ameri
can fleet, should be sufficient answer to
this character-traducing historian.
TO INSTRUCT FILIPINOS.
Fiv hundred and fifty more teachers
have just sailed for the Philippines, the
army is being reduced to less than 30,
000 men and these are being withdrawn
from the sight of the natives and con
centrated in three large garrisons, and a
strong native police force is being or
ganized to maintain order. This does
not sound much like the "slavery" our
antia prate so much about, nor the per
petual state of subjugation they pre
dict. The truth is that the amis have
utterly ignored American history and
me cnaracienstics of the American d
people in their prophecies and aeser-
tlOHB.
lhat is why the great mass of
the people bave paid them scant atten
lion anu wny the country has gone
steadily on its way doing its duty in the
Orient heedless of their waitings. a0
sane man familiar with the character
istics and impulses of the American
tieonle has ever believed or could believe
that anything but justice would be done
to the ilipinos or that any other course
than tho most speedy preparation of
them for self-government would be pur-
v..vu uihit n,T m.cu )(ivea me lie to
those who profess to bave no faith in
the honor, justice and love of liberty of
ther fellow citizens. In spite of what
they have said or. may say we shall go
on with tbe work of creating a condi
tion among the Filipinos which will lead
to their self-government' on Ihe same
lines aa we bave self government in this
iiountry. According to the ideas of the
averauo American no brighter future
i-ould be ottered them or could be desired.
TIMBER LAND KH.it 1)8.
Still the timber land frauds come to
the surface, in various part of the ex
tensive timber districts of Oregon. They
have iHHin (toing on lor yeara, and the
ollleiiiln, federal and state, mutt have
Known all about than. The law appears
to be eullk'iont on its face, to protect the
public aguinst the timber laud tiharke,
but it is generally construed in their fa
vor, and the most palpable violation of
the law are unnoticed. It aometimei)
looks to an observer as it the moat for-
j mal and nominal proof will serve if some
I corporation or capitalist is niakmg a big
1 timber land raw, but any opposition
must furnish the moat complete and ab
solute proof imaginable. When tlfty or
adjoining claims, taken up about the
transferred u one man
or curpormimn, wuw wiuipb in nu
makes payment, there U not n officer
of thefforernnienl, from the secretary
of the interior down, but what knows
that the law has been audaciously vio
lated and wholesale perjury committed,
yet these transactions are accepted as a
matter of course, and approved bv the
department, which thus makes itself an
agent of outrageous robberies ol the
American people at large, to whom this
timber and these lands.before being law
fully acquired by individuals, belong.
The lieu land law is another piece of leg
islative iniquity, designed as such from
the beginning, and it haa worked to the
entire satisfaction of the despoilera of
the public. The men who take advant
age of these lands, or of the practices
allowed, if not encouraged, are not to be
blamed ; they onlv take the gifts the po
litical gods provide; but there is no lan
guage too severe whereby to censure the
olliciais, who for many years have toler
ated and apparently been in "cahoots
with this wholesale robbery. Telegram.
The Chinese inhabitants of the
United States are decreasing, but the
Japanese residents are increasing.
There is no special objection to the Jap-
anese, though it they were to reach as
high figures as the Chinese had ten rears
ago there might be some talk of putting
up the bars against them. The Japan
ese are superior in most respects to the
Chinese. They conform more nearly
than the Chinese to American ideas of
civilization. There are 21,000 Japanese
in the United Stales as compared with
89,000 Chinese. As the former are grow
ing, however, while the latter are
shrinking, the chances are that by 1910
the numbers of the two races may be
pretty nearly even. At present the
Chinaman ia not a menace, but the ex
clusion law should, at its expiration
next May, be extended for another ten
years.
The Pacific coast is very little nuder
stood by the average Easterner. It is a
land of' wealth, but there is no clear
idea of ita vast resource and the cli
mate that makes it one of the finest
residence portions of tbe globe. There
is also an idea prevalent that a person
can't make a living unless he haa
large sum of money to start with. A
large number is now coming to the
coast and learning the untruth of these
ideas and the undeveloped portions of
the country will in tbe near future be
settled and the vast resources of the
country brought out. There is no bet
ter portion of the United States than
the North Pacific coast, and no better
home for the nmu of small means.
Gram ia being threshed in many sec
tions of the state thia week, and the
yield ia far hetter than in mtat. vpn ru
The average will be at least a third bet
ter, and the grain ia of much better
quality. When good crops predominate
the farmer is happy, and when the far
mer has money to spend everybody is
benefited. Good crops and a fair price
make good times for all. The flax crop,
too, ia much better than in past seasons,
and this crop will be the means of dis
tributing many thousands of dollars
among our people. The crop ia being
pulled this week, and tbe average price
of 15 per acre is being paid for pulling,
which is scattered anionic old and voune.
and many families are devoting their
entire time to flax pulling.

Irreducible School Fund.
Tbe state treasurer haa made the an
nual apportionment of the interest on
the irreducible school fund cnllra-ted
during the past year. The total number
of persona of school age in the state was
found to he 135,818, the amount of
money apportioned, $165,0if7.98. making
a per capita distribution of (Q.22. This
is a smaller apportionment than was
made last' vear or in 1899, and this is
explained by the fact that in 1899 and
1900 a large amount of accrued interest
was collected and made available for
ftritmt on ninnnr tha t,,.U
this year there is lees of that, the bark
interest having been collected up durine
the two previous yeara. Another mat
ter having an influence in reducing this
year's apportionment is the fact that the
interest rate of school fund loans has
been reduced from 8 to 6 per cent per
annum, a loss to the schools of 25 per
cent in their income.
According to the state treasurer's fig
ures there are 2,251 school children in
Columbia county, and tbe amount ap-
i"-" n'jneu ia a. inis amount has
already been received by the county
treasurer, but according to the law gov
erning the matter, the money will not
be apportioned until Octolier. "
