All of our exchanges are commenting on probable congresslon al candidates, also district and county, but there will be few contests at the primaries for legislative honors. There is a growing sentiment to take away the power granted a few years ago to district attorneys to In dict and to confine that power to the grand Juries as was formerly the case, and la the case now, when the court ealls for a grand Jury.

The following extract taken from a British high naval authority, shows the position the United States holds In the consideration of the great world f powers: Within the last decade the Atlantic as the center of America's political and strategic Interests has steadily declined. It Is hardly too much to say that since the conflict with Spain the menace of war, never a very heavy one, has been dissipated along the whole length of the Atlantic coast line. As a possible cause of embroil ment between the United States and any European power, tho West Indies Main 43 PH0E Main 43 DIRECTORY OF THE FRATERNAL ORDERS I SNODGRASS GROCERY ljwt,j have virtually ceased to exist. The problems thev lnte.nnt.i .. of "rs 3 held, says a Portland '"v u""n'- 'iif.iin, the revolution that has taken place In Anglo-American relations la an other and potent guarantee for the peace and security of the Atlantic seabourd. Finally, the practical ac quiescence on the part of ail Euro pean powers In the Monroe doctrine has removed Smith America from the! list of possible causes of war. No American Interest would be endan gered If the nuval force In the Atlan tic were reduced to little more than a mere police squadron. Active In the Pacific. On the other hand, within the last 10 years the Pacific has risen enorm ously In the scale of American Inter ests. Since 18KS the United States has strewn the Puclflc with stepping stones from Hawaii to the Philippines. She has built up an export trade to the Far East worth $-'00,0(100,000 a year. She has landed an army on Chinese territory. She has been drawn Into the vortex of the Far Eastern question. She has played In the evolution of that question an ac tive, often a leading, always a dis tinctive part. She has formulated policies and taken a hand In mo mentous negotiations. She'has defin itely enrolled the Fur East among the objects of her diplomatic solicitude. She has become, In fact, a Far East ern power herself. It is possible, therefore, to regard the new naval urruiigemunt us find ing their origin and Justification In fundamental events that long preced ed the outbreak of the present dis pute between Japan and America. A 'condition of t)iluKH under which America's heaviest liabilities were bo Ing Incurred In one ocean, whlV the bulk of her fleet was stationed In an other, could not be permanent; and In the redistribution of American sea power that Is now hi progress, t'.icre may be nothing more than a neces sary lltiKini; of policy with strategy paier.
