MOKE SKIPS WASTED Ws feel a just pride in quoting the figures that show our great foreign trad which now exceeds two billion dollars per year. For the ten months ending October 1 904 the total of our imports and exports was $2,236,943,822. This is a good showing and one that very properly flatter our vanity, but when w ar told that but ten per cent of this Is carried in American (hips, a.id that w are paying an annual tribute to foreign owned ships a freight, th normoussum of $150, 000.C 00. the pride oozes out of our in flated bosoms, for w intuitively feel that ws ar dependent on foreign ships to carry the products of our farms, mines and work-shop to market . . In 1810 American ships carried 91 per cent of our foreign trad. Foreign marine countries seeing the advantage that a share in the foreign trade of the world would be to them, began a system of national aid to their ships by bounties and subventions. The United State alon of all the commercial nation failed to encourage its merchant marine with the result that in 1861 but 65 per cent of our foreign trade is carried on beneath our flag in our ships and now but ten per cent of our foreign commerce under our flag.

But the trouble isn't at Pana ma; it's in th United States Senate. ' Less than thirty days until city election. La Grande must move along this year and progressive and conservative officers make this all possible. In Sweden th school children, led by their teachers, plant 600,000 trees an nually. It is a simple lesson In th science of government economies, with all the. fun of a picnic Mi) DMK3 Improves the flavor and adds to the health fulness of the food.

Governor Brown, Treasurer Atkin, Congressman Rand. Congressman Lachner, Congressman Graham, all of Baker county. Really the primary law ha been very kind to us. Baker City Herald. A prominent eastern Journal may know whereof it speaks when it say that if th "square deal" idea continue to grow that th trusts and corporation will stand in with th general demand to have President Roosevelt accept another four year term. They have full confl dene In his desire to do jus tic In every case and they fear that if public senti ment continue to grow, by th time for another presidential election, sotrt man more radical than Rootevelt might be elected, which would result in a great loss to their interests. This may sound flimsy to hear these great trusts talk this way but on sober thought they may have reached th point whereby they will be atisfied with a "square deal" The United States senate will take up th ship subsidy b U tonv rrow. . Tbt r ar many persons who do not believe the United State should pay bounties or money to ship owners, and others who think money thus judiciously spent. At th world is now running it look as though th nation that does not encourage ship building and operating must be con tent to hire) foreign ship to carry its foreign trade. England paid to her ship owner in 1901 bounties and subsidies $5,536,612. Italy paid for the' tame purpos $2,819,451 and Japan $2,942,- 299. Our competing nations for ocean freights paid in th aggregate in bounties and subsidies in the year 1901 the sum of $27,670,160. , YAlERTflSE SOdAl Crystal Rebekah Lodge No. 60. will give a valentine social at the 1.
