IH JUSTICES TO SCHLEY.
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,'

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

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,-

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

the information baughtilv. intimating
that his subordinate might attend to bis

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

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. Telegram.

Brain-Food Nonsense.
Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent author
ities. They have dispelled the silly no
tion that one kind of food is needed for
brain, another for muscles, and still an
other for bones. A -correct diet will not
onlv nourish a particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good yonr food may
be. its nutriment is destroyed bv indi
gestion or dyspepsia. You must pre
pare i or ineir appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A
few doses aids digestion, stimulates the
liver to healthy action, purifee the
blood, and makes you feel buoyant and
vigorous. You can get Dr. (J. U. Green's
