Spaix maintained with her lost col onies subsidized steamship lines which in the nature of things will be discon tinued shortly. If the United States is to take any considerable part in ths business of the merchant marine of the world she must begin at once as the paths of commerce are being extended to the uttermost corners of the earth and when once established, trade Is hard to divert. II America does not step in and control the carrying trade of these islands, England, France and Germany will. These latter countries subsidize their steamship lines and the only way to pot capital in the merchant marine of this country is to make the same en couragement to it as European countries do. To secure the trade of these islands i to advance the outposts of our trade and commerce hundreds of miles in the West Indies and make it that much easier to get the lion's share of the trade of South America while in the Pacific we ar j placed at the very door of tbe richest commercial prize on the face of the earth. If e do not take advantage of our op pertnnities we will lose what cannot be gained in years. It is time that Ameri ca's commerce is carried in American ships. The subsidies granted by foreign nations are made np in part at least by a tonnage tax on all foreign vessels enter ing their ports. In the United States this tax is very light and our ports are practically free although we expend immense sums in improving our harbors, establishing lighthouses etc. Tbe sec retary of the treasury recommends that this country profit by the experience of others and that congress enact such measn-ies as will place us on a plane in the shipping world as our importance as a nation entitles us to. Tub inspctor-general of army recom mends strongly periodical military man euvers and experimental mobilization. This undoubtedly should be done as it would give training such as wonld avoid most of tbe difficulties experienced in tbe camps by tbe troops during the late war. Training is the only way these difficulties can be met. Vkbt and Hoar oppose expansion by the United States because their const i ments get no direct benefit. If tbe Ptiilippines were on the Atlantic Hoar would not object neither would Vest if his state got some of tbe immediate benefits. Neither of them seem to be able to see tbe great possibilities for this jntry in getting to tbe doorway of tbe ental trade. ipain in ber bitterness had to file a protest at being forced to tbe treaty of peace at Paris. She ia especially bitter at tbe mention of tbe destruction of the Maine by tbe president in bis message. , Dain knOWl aS Weil a8 America matt .. . , ,1 A. Bpanish subjects at least had a hand ia he destruction of the Maine. No IvIhiiio can be attacked to Colonel doesn't want to go Cuba, or to I'orio Kioo, or to the ritillppines, with the army of occupation. Tim war is over, and no active military servloo ia seen. Colonel llrvan ran do bet I leave the army, ami lecture on Ilia own heroism, with incidental praises of six- ' teen to-one, and remark on the crown ,he er08 ' Kld.-Ore- J sonian. Is the death of Judge Wait Oregon liua lost one of the earliest pioneer. He took an ne'ive part in the development of the Mute and especially Clackatna county where lie took an active part in the early development of Oregon City. He will be miaecd by the pioneer who are getting fewer a the year roll round Cosokkssm.vn ToMii'K Iras been before the committee on rivrr and harbors to got an appropriation for' the purpose of purchasing the locks at I hi place. This would be of great importance to the Willamette valley and every citizen is interested in seeing it done. Tits democrats are getting technical and are going to object to members ot congress who accepted potation in the army from taking their seat. They will gain nothing by taking a course of this kind. II ! Gen. Garcia is dead and in his death Cuba loses one ot her best sons. No man did more to free Cuba and no name will be more revered by Free Cuba than that o! Garcia. His whole life was spent in fighting Spain Gen. Lee's return to Havana as its military governor will bo very bitter to the Spanish of that city. Gen. Lee did good work in Cuba and is entitled to all the honor this government can give him in Cuba. Tub present cold snap of ten days has nearly broken the record for severity of the weather and length of time it stays with us. It would be considered warm in the East at 15 to 23 degrees above zero. Typhoid has taken another one of tbe boys at Manila. Corporal H. G. Hib- bard was one of the leading young menl of Marion county and would have gradu ated from Willamette University next June. Civil service rules are being enforced in the collector customs office and the office of collector of internal revenue with tbe result that John Mintoloet bis place. Tub silver men of congress are going to oppose any currency reform legisla tion and perhaps this is well, as it will as much as one thing kill what little following this mongrel crowd have. Tub Press man is feeling very bady this week. He even objects to our walk ing the streets. Pleasant Dream.. It does not lie in the painter's fancy to imagine a prettier picture than that of a yonne girl, with lips luscioua with the promise of love, half parted in tbe smiles of happy dreamland. Tbe mind of happy maidenhood ia a clear and polished mirror, which, when tbe wits go wandering into tbe ghostland of dreams, reflects tbe impres sions of waking hours. If those impres sions are pleasant and painless and happy, she will smile in ber aleep. if the impres sions are those of a suffering woman, tor tured witb tbe special ailments to which tbe feminine organism is liable, the picture ia spoiled by the lines of suffering and de spondency. Maladies of thia nature unfit a woman for joyous maidenhood and for cs pable motherhood. They incapacitate her to bear tbe burdens of life in any sphere of action. Household, marital and social duties alike are a burden to the woman who ia constantly suffering from headaches, backaches, dragging sensations and weak ening drains. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription - positively, completely, unfail ingly cures troubles of this nature. It imparts health, strength, vigor to the dis tinctly womanly organ. It fits for care free, healthy maidenhood, happy wifehood and capable motherhood. "I have a little step-daughter who had St Vitus'. Dance, which roar medldn cared," writes Mrs. T. T.
