The government should pay the cost of the Schley investigation, una reitu bnrse the gallant officer who has been persecuted, rather than prosecuted, by court of inquiry. Admiral Schley is not ouly vindicated in the court of pub lic opinion, but his recital of Die famous bombardment ol Santiago nas so re freshed the public's memory that his title oi nero is not ooiy rmumumju, but new luster is added to dis name. The admiral is the victim of jealousy on the part of a handful of brother officers ; feaJonar of a neculiar brand known only to arraV and navv circles. While the people Were exultant over the success of navy of which any nation might be proud, and while the world paid tribute to pliant officers and capable men, this little coterie of naval officials, green with envy and purple With indignation, was plotting to tarnish the fair name and belittle the character of the man. who, by accident, happened to be the leader in a noted engagement, forcing turn, at last, in defense of honor, to demand a court of investigation. The whole thing, from start to huish, has been a disgrace to the nation. The American navy is not composed of a flagship and half a dosen admirals, who, through prestige won by seniority, happened to be at the front in the war with Spain. The soc- - cess that came to this navy in this en gagement was not Saghip or admiral's victory, it meant vasuy mors man that. The trlorv that succeeded was bright enough to light up the hold of every battleship, where Drave ana loyai - men were faithfully nerforming the hard and homely tasks of duty, prompted by the same spirit of patriotism that in spired the hearts of the men on the bridge or in the fighting top. The victory won waa broad enough to cover every craft that floated the stars and stripes, whether engaged in trans port service or at the front. Back of the victory and the honor was the nation, to which the navy owed its existence and efficiency. Every shot that was bred at Manila and at Santiago with such telling effect, spoke volumes for the men behind the guns. When five hundred men volunteered to join the little blockading squadron, with the Merrimac, the act said to the world: the American navy is composed of the right kind of material. When the short and decisive war waa over,the navy, and not the flagships, and officers in com mand alone, was the pride of the nation, and a surprise to the world. It has tost .. . i i . . i . i none oi us g'ory, out in uuseeuiij fight on one of its most gallant and worthy officers, has tarnished its fair name, and the victory won by either aide will be destitute of honor or any thing else worth recording in history. i Admiral Schely was forced into this . contest against his wishes. The inves ' ligation has been expensive for biin, and whether he wins or loses, he should not be called upon to foot the bill. Pub lic sentiment is with him as an officer, and has. been from the eventful day when he led his fleet to victory. Con gress should reimburse him for needless expense. The people will approve of the act, and tne man is entitled to wit mncn consideration. GOVERNMENT BALANCE SHEET, The official report of the financial op erations of the United States govern ment for the fiscal year ending with June 80, 1901, iust sent oat from Wash ington, takes tne mind up into tne dizzy heights of mathematics. The govern ment's net ordinary revenues for the year reached the highest mark $587,' WtJjWt HHVUCU. A MWV WW 600.000 in excess of the receipts in 1900, which exceeded all records along to that time, .expenditures, too, which were 4609.967,353 for 1901. were at high fig ares. They were in excess of those of any previous year except in lstei, 1S04, 1866 and 1899. . The three years first mentioned were the years of the highest disbursements of the civil war, when over 1,000,000 men were under arms. In 1899 the burdens of the Spanish war reached their height. In that year the government's outlay was a little in excess of $606,000,000. In 1890 there was a drop to MoT.OOO.OOO in the ex- . , . i . . . t . , penaiiunw, out iu iwi mere is an in crease to the extent of $22,000,000 in the outlay. Qovermental surpluses are once more the order of the day, despite the heavy expenditures. In 1901 the receipts ex ceeded the expenditures to toe extent A almost $78,000,000. This is a little less than $2,000,000 below the surplus ot iuuu. in tne nan a dozen years lm- UJWiaiC HCUUK. UVWVTVl, ,UCIQ were deficits, although in most of those years the country was in a condition of profound peace, ine aencita Degan in the fiscal year 1894, iust after Mr. Cleve land entered office in bia second term, and they lasted until near the middle of the first term of Mr. McKinley. But in the McKinley case there waa a vast in crease in the expenditures of the gov ernment through the war with Spain, nd these burdens continue, in a large degree, to the present time. As one of the effects of the Spanish war the ex penditures of the government in 1901 lave been $509,000,000, as compared with $368,000,000 in 1894, in the early part of President Cleveland's second term, yet there was a surplus of nearly $78,000,000 in 1901, while 1894 reported deficit of almost $70,000,000. There is an impressive exhibition hereof repub lican superiority in governmental finan ciering, i : There has been steady and rapid lu rnie in the country's gold stock, as wed as in that part of it w bich is in the treasury, iu recent years. The amount of gold in the country at the present j time is estimated at a little over $1,160,- 000.000. which Is far lanwr than the etook held by France, 1800,000.000, and France leuda all the rt of the coun tries of the world iu this res pec t.

Pt'pu- littion in the country at largo is growing ftutter than in any oilier country, but the stock of cash is increasing still faster. While the per capita circulation i . ,.f ii ... ....... liiin itftul ut invito va fan wwa . ... .'.. at the time of Bryan's tinmicial reign of terror, it was tj'..&0 on July 1, 1000; li8 on July 1, 1001, and (28.1(2 on October 1, 1901. The banks, as well ss the gov ernment, have more gold tnan wiey nan find profitable use for. The financial condition of the country is better than It has been at any orevioua time in the past. No other nation in the world has ever experienced anything like the pros perity which prevails in the United States at the present time. The swift and sweeping improvement which has come for the country in the past four vnara. is lanielv due. of course, to the political sanity and courage of the re- puoiican party. Washtnotox county authorities have retained a lawyer and started in, by the process of law, to regain tine to tne eleven sections of land, which the legi la to re of three years ago gave to that county, the territory being taken away from Columbia county. It will be re called to mind that throngh the efforts of Representative Merrill, in the last legislature, title to this land was re gained bv Columbia county. If the act of the legislature in taking the land from this county and giving it to Wash ington eoontv bore any legality or oper ative enect, men it wnaiuir w luutty rieht. iust and meet that the act of re storing the land to its original owner should not be equally legitimate and binding. By what means Washington county hopes to defeat the purpose of the legislative act is considerable of a mystery to a good many people. Title to the land was gained to Washington county through intrigue and chicanery in the first place, and when Mr. Merrill regained its ownership to this county by act of the legislature, Washington county turns purple with seeming indig nation and institutes suit tor a nopeiess bluff to coerce this county to bestow upon them someiiung to wnicn tney have no legal or moral claim. The court of inquiry came within ranee of auite a new idea, one which sometime may prove to be only too true; that there was a plot to letCervera leave Santiago and get away with his fleet in saiety. nas Aaimrmt oauipaon m pur session of the secret, too important to be intrusted to Schley T It looks that way. Anyway, Sampson lost the oppor tunity of his life when be got up steam that July morning and sailed away on some trivial matter, leaving Schley to win the battle in his absence. Schley sent Sampson word the night before that the Spanish neet seemed to oe get ting ready and might come out of the harbor at any time. Sampson waived the information baughtilv. intimating that his subordinate might attend to bis own immediate affairs just what he did. It is more than possible now that Sampson now feels a biting remorse which he cannot suppress. For a long time be has been in miserable health. quite broken down, and it is evident something onusual is gnawing at his vitals, auu tuat puuuc wluiuuj is a.iu' ing Dim. It seems sad to see the depth to which Turkey baa fallen, rime was when the world trembled at the prog ress and prowess ot the Moslem arms, but now there is scarcely a nation but that may without fear offer it any insnlt ingenuity can devise. And wny this change? Has the Moslem warrior lost his power 7 Mohammed, largely to gratr uy nis own lusts, permitiea ana encour aged the barem and plural marriages. This took away from woman her highest attributes ot being the bead and heart of the home, and made ber the slave of man'a fancy, and dependent lor ner power and ascendency on her ability to retain the animal anection of ber lord, This degraded women, made the highest type ot home lite impossible, and nnaily paved the way tor tne tan oi Moslem power. The history of the Moham medan people is but repetition of the history oi otner countries ot tne past. Any nation that has not held home life and the environment of the borne sacred has not long survived in its original strength. A maoa wants to know when hard times for the farmer are likely to come again, assuming that the present pros perous condition ot agriculture cannot continue. While lower prices for farm products are almost sure to come in the natural order ot supply and demand still think that the greatly expanded markets for the products of the Ameri can farm and factory and common sense business principles in the policies of the government will absolutely prevent a recurrence of what may be termed "bard times" for the American farmer for many years to come. The whole world is becoming dependent to a greater or lesser degree upon America, the actual foreign demand for foodstuffs, coupled with home demand from non producers engaged in manufacturing commodities for foreign countries, is sure to make an active demand at good f rices lor all that tne farmer has to sell, t is this fact which does mnch to ex plain the marked advance in the price oi good tarm lana su over tne country. Thibi Is a bare possibility that some ot the "settlers" wno nave been tak ing up valuable timber land In this county under the homestead act, may have an opportunity to lace uncle earn with his war paint on before very long, says the Scio. Linn county Times. There is quite a difference in taking np a homestead and living on it according to law and living in town and going out once or twice a year and sleeping on the land. Since competition baa become so strong for good timber the mill men are turning every stone to get hold of the valuable timber land, and if thevcan show the government where fraud has been committed, and get tne matter in vestigated and the patents set aside the land is again subject to entry, and the mill men can get men to take it up under the timber act and althounb tbev do not comply with the law in every re spect they do little better than the homesteader who never makes a home on the land more than one night at a time, and perhaps not that. Tux treaty b by which the United I is given power to build States takes and tne Micaraguan canal was signed in Washington on Monday, and nnm awaits the ratification of congress. The strictest neutrality is maintained in re gard to the important points contained in the treaty, but it is given out, how ever, that the United States is to be the sole owner and proprietor; is to permit the commerce of all nations to pass through the canal, is to psy toll on its own commerce, and m to fortify and protect the commerce of all nations while in or oassing throneh the canal. There is no question regarding the ben efit to the Pacific coast by reason of such passage connecting the two great oceans. It will be worth millions of I dollars annually to the trade and com merce of tiis Pacific const, aud Its speedy completion may well be hoped for. When congress meets the seal that rou tines and guards so carefully and effect ually the contents of the treaty will be broken, and a deeply interested public allowed to know its every detail.. The Befereadam Amendment. Next June Oregon electors will have an opportunity to vote on the proposed constitutional amendment, providing l. 'litiativ- ii,l MtttMRfliim Whether the amendment will be adopted or not may very likely depend upon the construction given by the courts to the clause of the constitution denning the proportion of votes necessary to the adoption of an amendment. This re quires "a majority of the electors," but whether this means a majority oi an the electors who voted at the election, or only a majority of those who voted upon the amendment, is a point not yet settled in this state, though in some other states it has been decided in favor of the former position. Suppose, for example, that the total number of votes cast next June should be 100.000. but that only 60,000 electors should vote on this amendment, of which 40,000 should vote for it and 30,000 against, or even 40,000 for it and only 11,000 against, would the amendment be adopted? Would it not require 60,001 votes to adopt itt Or would 90,001 votes, a majority of the votes cast upon tne amendment, adopt it? The question has never yet come before our courts because the amend ments so far proposed all failed to re ceive even a majority of the votes cast for and against them. This amendment may possibly receive a majority of the votes thereon, but it is very unlikely that it will receive a majority of all the votes cast at the election. The vote i a of Oregon have repeatedly shown that they are elow to change their constitution, and have rejected some meritorious or harmless amend ments: and there is nothing in the signs of the times to indicate that a majority of our voters desire to saddle this troub lesome and expensive tad of defunct populism upon the state, it is true that both the other parties have encouraged and resolved in favor of it, but this waa only to curry favor with populist voters, who some rears ago were numerous; there waa but little sincerity in these professions, and most of the republicans and a large portion of the democrats may be expected to vote No, however they may have talked.
