.Secretary Root, after conferring
with General Mile and his fellow
members of the cabinet has Issued
the notary orders to start more
than six thousand regular troops
to the Philippines, ; the idea being
to, stop them in China if they are
needed there when they get that
far ton their way.) jThere Is atil
much doubt about the fate of for
eigners in Pekin, one story follow
ing and contradicting another sev
eral times every da v. Owing to
the time that would necessarily
elapse before the other powers coul
assemble an army on the coast ol
China large enough to forcibly take
possession of and hold Pekin ami
other interior points, an agreement
has been reached by the powers
under which Japan will furnish as
largo an army as may lie necessary
and, go ahead and perform the task
of punishing the outlaw Chinese
element and restoring law and or
dor, the other powers agreeing to
pay Japan a cash indemnity, which
Chtna will Iw made to repay later,
There is quit a little rumpus
among those who managed the re

at the reception, which was an
nouneed to be for tho benefit of the
widows and orphans of the Boer
soldiers. $1,134 was collected stir
posed ly for the widows and orphans
but after paying for carriages, fire
works, wines, etc, it seems that
only $18 was left for the widow
and orphans, and the contributors
are some of them saying ugly things
about those who collected and dis
buned the money.
General prosperity is reflected iu
the business of the U. S. patent of
tice, which was larger during the
fiscal year just closed than ever be
fore, the cash receipts having been

The Sultan of Turkey has made

ican legation in that city, to im
press it upon the sultan's mind
that the money must be paid with
in the specified time. The Sultan
wishes his pn mise kept secret, ow
ing to numerous European claims
of a similar nature, and this infor

department of state, but from those
more directly interested in the pay

Japan is in a position to act
promptly in China, and Bhould be
allowed to do so under a guarantee
that the Chinese territory occupied
would not bo held. Before the Eu
roi.can nations . and the United
States can get enough troops on
Chinese soil to do effective work,
many lives of foreigners may be
sacrificed Japan, if the other pow
ers permit it to act, can capture
Pekin long before the rest .of the
nations could accomplish the ob
ject. America is in favor of j giving
a good deal of latitude to Japan in
tin's matter of the pledge, which
Japan is said to have given, that
tho captured territory would be
evacuated after order was restored.
The concert can afford to take the
American view of the Chinese issue
in all its parts. .

The Salem Statesman's Bystand
er is probably correct when he says
that "The trail of tho serpent of the
American Book Co. agents in Ore
gon is already to b seen by the ob
serving, preparatory to 'the contest
that is to come off after (if not be
fore) the appointment of the com
missioners to select the text books
for tho public schools of this state
next year." This is tho meaning of
attacks made in an underhanded
and disguised way on the office of
the superintendent , of public in
struction. There will no doubt be
various indirect methods employed
from this time on to create pre
judices and impressions calculated
to further the designs of the agents
of the big book concern in Oregon.
The agents of this concern are by
no means content, with the supply
ing of all the books to the .schools
of Oregon at contract prices that
are probably remunerative. They
want to fasten themselves with a
stronger grip, and to dictate policies
and control public men."
riKIH EXPOSITION LETTER,
mm out HinUr Oorrwptmdeirt,
Park France, July 2.
Life day by day In the Paris ex
position 's not exciting or sensa
tional, but it la full of Incident. 1
will give you a history of one day
at. the exposition. I entered .the
grounds about half past nine o'clock
and crossing the Alma bridge, went
into the first open building on tho
right. It was tho Uiilding devoted
to medical science, hygiene and
sanitation. It was opened for the
first time today. :t The displays of
France are, of course, most con
spicuous and in the vestibule there
is a bust of M. lVtour and a statue
of tho Goddess of Fame placing a
wreath of laurel on his head. The
room is fill'! with glass receptacle
containing cultivated germ of
many diseases: It is indeed a grue
some spectacle, this Pandora's hall
of Isolated deadly microbe, and
one feels glad that they are In her
metically sealed bottles and that
the bottles are in carefully locked
glass cases, and that these are sur
rounded with all the sterilinlng
paraphernalia and all the curative
agencies known to the science.
After Franco, tho German section
may be seen, with a bust in broiue
of Dr. Koch and models of sanitary
institutions and hospitals. I had
but half an hour for this building,
in which one might wolt spend a
week. 1'aking the electric car, I
quickly reached the American
printer's building, and engaged a
stenographer by whose assistance I
hope.to increase and improve my
output. Then to tho car again,
which landed mo about half a mile
from the American section of agri
culture and alimentation. It is not
easy to find anything here; guides
are few and ill-informed. There
are wildernesses of exhibits and no
landmarks, and unless you are
careful not to turn around, you are
as likely to bo walking away from
your objective as toward it. I had
been to this exhibit often before,
but never from this direction, and
I must have walked a mile and rot
ten direction and misdirection from
people of half a dozen nationalities
before I found it. Then I discover
ed that the gentlemen in charge,
who had promised me certain data,
were off on tho jury of awards. By
this time it was one o'clock, and I
left Paris and Franco for a half
hour and crossed into Switzerland
for luncheon. The Swiss village
separated from the world's fair by
the width of a street, is decidedly
tho most genuine show In Paris. It
is a section of Switzerland most
cunningly transplanted in the roar
ing hub-bub and fatiguing splendor
of the exposition. High precipice
shut out on all sides tho dazzling,
noisy world you have left, and it is
easy to imagine you are many miles
away from Paris. A beautiful cas
cade fulls from the mountain side
It is real ws ter. It turns the whee
ol an old mill and hows over stones
and amid weeds and wild flowers
through tho village. Chalets are
on green patches above you and the
perspective is so skillfully managed
mat they appear to ho full size.
Workmen are making actual hay
in tho littlo valley to tho left; here
are real cows and goats, a little
church, and a dozen restaurants,
all clean and picturesquo. Tho logs
of which the houses are built have
been taken from some old houses in
Switzerland, fjr not the slightest
detail is lacking in this most charm
ing, homelike and restful ensemble.
Of course, the juxtapoBition with
tho roaring city and the exposition
without, and tho psychological con
trast greatly enhances the effect,
but seriously, this Swiss village is
about the only thing I want to tnke
lomo. No photographs, or even
paintings can do it justice, for every
step through its winding streets
brings to your view a new and
charming perspective. So old, so
rural, and restful is the fresh butter,
bread and coffee, meat, vegetables,
cheese and strawberries aro served
by a girl in the costume of her can
ton, and all for 80 cents. But I
must leave this charming idyl and
go to tho American corn kitchen,
which is up three flights of stairs in
a frame annex, the two lower floors
of which are covered with McCor-
mick's harvesters, Buckeye reapers
and mowers, and other farming
machinery of American make. The
corn kitchen amusos me. It is such
a serious fake. It is expensive, too,
to our country, but "who cares for
expenses"? It is tho only free lunch
in France, for they do not do things
that way here. Treating is un
known, and this is wholesale treat
ing. The French, male and female,
regard it with suspicion and ap
proach the lunch counter with fear.
hey do this the first time, but
bouleverse" by the novel exper
ience of eating without being
charged for the napkin, the sugar,
the plate, the service, corn soup,
corn fritters, corn cakes, and syrup,
all in a long itemized bill, a la
Francais, they come again and
again until the managing Ameri
can (who by the way is a born dip
lomat and Hftks French) explains
that the kitchen is not iutended for
a regular and permanent free board
ing house. Corn In any form is a
somewhat heating diet, ai.d when a
French woman after eating heartily
of hot cakes and syrup asked for
something to drink, tho good color
ed woman from New Orleans, who
stands behind the counter: and
peaks. . French with the best of
them, poured her a' glass of water.
She tasted It ruder the impression
that it was corn wine and said it
bit her tongue. Some of her com
panions then sipped the water and
nil agreed that it had a curious
tasto nnd hit their tongues. There
was nothing peculiar about the
water except that it was ieo cold.
This story will appear improbable
to the American cold water drink
ers, but there is not a word of ex
aggeration in it. A rural French
man after his first corn meal said:
"When I tell them at home I have
eaten corn, they will not believe
me; we food it only to beanta,"
Tho manager showed me a letter
from a clubman at Lyons, which
read : "Moneieuer Director, please
send mo five or ten franca worth of
comeakin, C. O. D.M The man
ager replied that in order to be ap
preciated, the corn cake must be
served hot, and if he would do him
the honor to call at the annex, in
Paris, he would furnish them free.
The greatest patroniigo of the corn
bread kitchen comet from Ameri
cans in Paris, who do not need con
version. There are many fakes in
Paris, but this is the most serio
comieal and expensive of all of
them. '
Tho fear of A general Euroiwan
war has caused a drop in stocks in
Berlin and in some of the other Old
World centers. This fear, however,
is unreasonoble. There will bo a
war against the elements which are
now at the front in China."- No
good reason exists for any appre
hension of a quarrel among the
nations alxiut the disjtosition of
things in China. The way to avoid
a quarrel ia fir all the nations to
agree to tho American policy of
preserving tho status quo in China
after putting some modern at the
head of affairs in that empire, The
New York stock and money market
is not showing any dread of serious
complication among the great
powers on the Chinese question.
The United States is easy on that
score. Its intentions are humane
and they will undoubtedly 'bo ac
cepted in time by a majority of the
other nations interested. The Chi
nese trouble will not extend any
farther than China,
" '
Speaking of conditions in Manila
under the American administration
the British consul in that city says,
"Improvements are visible in every
direction and already tho town has
quite a different appearanoo from
last year. The work of draining
tho filthy town ditches and stag
nant jiools may poscihly entail an
epidemic, but tho advantage to pos
terity is inestimable. There . are,
no doubt at present, golden oppor
tunities for the employment of cap
ital and talent in many local trades.
Tho departments of the postoflice
and telegraph, being nw under
American and pritish control, are
admirably conducted." The Brit
ish vice-consul at Iloilosays: "The
United Statoa forces have now sue-
awfully occupied the greater part
of tho island. The end of this year
augurs well for a happier future,
and, when once a peaceful rule is
istablished, many important imp
rovements will take place."
Tho hop growers mot in Salem
ast Saturday, pursuant to call, for
tho purpose of considering the
proposition of Lilienthal Bros? to
guarantee 15 cents per pound, pro
vided only good hops be picked, and
tho output reduced 25 per cent.
On this proposition there was no
definite decision, liiloy Cooper of
Independence said that many Folk
comity growers had already reduced
their acreage 25 per cont and he
thought it would be unfair to ask
stinh to still further reduce their
their acreage. Growers contracting
with Lilienthal Bros, would be com
pelled to furnish a first class hop
of perfect quality and should grow
ers raiso only such hops, he predic
ted that little difliculty would be
experienced in realizing 15 cents
from their hops to any buyer. Mr.
Cooper further said that the hop
crop in the locality of Independen
ce would be short, probably notovor
throe-fourths of a crop. The speak
er was disposed to discourage the
growers in , tho acceptance of the
terms of tho ponding proposition.
le said theoretically the proposed
plan was all right, but practically.
it was a questionable mode of pro
cedure, lie concluded by saying
that if growers would only produce
a first class hop, there would be no
need of any dealer guaranteeing a
price for the crop.

wain to the fact that a small but

According to tho constitution t of
that grand duchy which has not
yet been formally abrogated, no
grand ducal decree can become leg
al without the consent of Parlia
ment, and that body was accord
ingly asked to give legality to the
Imperial act by ratifying It. This,
after careful deliberation, has been
refused. The Finnish Parliament
has also refused to ratify a law
giving to RtiHsiana tho right to en
gage in certain lines of trade which
bavo nltherto baon prohibited to
Finlanders on moral , and other
grounds. Beyond an indication of
the, desperation to ; which theao
people have been reduced in their
effort to maintain a semblance of
their ancient constitutional liberty,
this refusal is insignificant. " Rus

This battle of the Finns is pathetic
but it can ouly end in their nation

If there is anyone who has gain
ed the idea that the prosperity of a

are mistaken. ' History shows us
that it is the uniformity with whic.1
