That is the question with which industry in the I'nited States faces a new year after a twelvemonth of prosjvrity unparalleled a twelvemonth in which practically every branch of lmin mill ln.iniitact nre allowed an increase over ... .... . point in t ougref orevious year; when ousiness i.uiures in spue oi , , thousands of new enterprises amounted to only eijjht-teuths of one per cent.; when the railroads could not carry the products of farm and factory so great was its volume: when wages were increased as well as prices; when the home demand for materials was so "insatilile" (as llradstreet's puts it) that the volume of ex Krts for a time w as checked, w hile producers labored to supply the unprecedented needs for domes tic use and 'internal development. W ill prosperity continue? Cautious answers to the question have been given by the majority of the daily papers of the I'nited States. In the January 1st issue many of them present the views of local business men of prominence. The New York Kvening Post perhaps has collected the largest amount of such data. In a fifteen-page supplement it presents extended reviews of the house. Fulton probably gets the best ot the organization as Itrownell is friendly to him and Harris was distinctly a Fulton candidate and a bright, ca pable man, whose friends are glad to see him to the front. As politics go Itrownell was entitled to the place he asked for as he has made three hard lights for the senate, has taken a prominent part in the sen atorial election held hile he was a member of the senate and deserves this recognition. We congratu late hi in on his success. . I.N the death of Hon. Thos. II. Tongue, not only his congressional district but the state and coast lose a valuable man in Congress, lie had reached that :ional experience that made him of distinct value to the state, especially will this he felt jon committees. His place on the river and harbor ! committee alone has been worth much to the state, j Among some of his notable uehieveinents was the In idian War Veterans Pension Mill and the Crater Lake j National Park. He has also at all times worked for the improvement of the Columbia river and it had j been due to his efforts as much as anyone's that Ore Igon got as much as she did for this work. Mr. ongue also did much for irrigation and better mail facili ties for the state. He was a man of strong coiivic tions, firmness, and active in the interests of his state" to the point of aggressiveness. He was strongly de voted to the inteiests of the state, felt the responsibil it v of his position and with tact and judgment labored for his district and constituents. Oregon will miss him from the halls of Congress and can not hope to .. . , , . ! i. i- : i - . i . t oii.'iesuuauon.rom.n.ancuuwrrespom.e.usi.ii-aris, r(.,Iilt.e lim with a man us useful at once.

The conclusions of the I'ost are con firmed on all sides. The New .York Times thinks that ';tLe conditions' now existing and the forces now oper ative promise to carry us prosperously through the greater part of the year.'' The Tribune, speaking broadly of :i flairs industrial and social, says that "w here men faced the first day of l'.M.rj with anxiety and mi.-eiviiiL's. or at best with feeble hope, they face the opening of with confidence and exultation." The Herald, taking a more sober view of speculation, declares th.it there has been "too much borrowing, and credit so seriously inflate. that a shock of any ind which would cause a sudden demand for the re demption of these credits might have unfortunate con- an unprecedented hemorrhage when this world de stroyer gets into full aetion, and the miserable planta tions of Louisiana will resolve themselves into the original bayous once more. If the planters are to be saved a law should be passed making it a crime to raise lx-ets exeept for pickles. Thfick are attempts b iog made' in the legislature to change the metho 1 of raising the school fund by making it a per capita tax. Some are advocatim.' making it us high us 'S a pupil. This would nearly double the school fund in this county and it is doubt ful if the people would be willing to tax themselves even for so laudable a purpose as the school to this extent. Some advocate the raising of the tax from ." t-, l'i ti, ills We lioliet-e thnt the oeritil. Iff-1 1 em 1 I V nre sequences.

After a description of the development under the old regime the following significant passage occurs: Eut the fortune of war which changed the civil gov ernment of the country has involved changes in the spiritual government also. For with the cessation of Spanish rule the right of patronage of the Spanish kings has also ceased, and the church has come into greater liberty, with the just partition of its rights from those of the civil government. This actually sounds like an expression of grati fication over the change, and it certainly implies an unreserved acceptance of such a status as is accorded to the churcii in this country. We may expect, there fore, that the future policy of the church government will be det-eri ii ined largely by the traditions and ex perience of the American church and the advice of prelates. The connection with Spain, it appears, in severed absolutely. The head of the Philippines hier archy will be the archbishop of Manila, and the mem bers of monastic orders will be responsible to the ex ecutive bishops of their dioceses, who have the juris diction which formerly belonged to the superiors of the orders. Hence, although the problem of the friars And their property is not wholly solved as yet, the enor of the document indicates very clearly that its Sk.natok Mahsteks is insisting that the appropria tion to the Lewis and Clark Fair be submitted to the people under the initiative and referendum. Senator Marsters will find that there are many people that agree with him in this matter. As it is the people who will have to pay the tax, they should have a voice in saying how much if any tax they care to pay for this purpose. A half million of dollars is quite a sum of money and we believe it would pay the state to expend it; there are many who do not. We do think that Senator Marsters is right in letting the people pass on this matter. If they vote the tax they will pay it much more cheerfully than they will if they have no voice in the matter. David 13. Hill wants patent medicine makers to quit using his portrait for advertising purposes. This is an entirely reasonable demand. The patent medi cine people, as well as others, should refrain from do ing violence to the dead. Quay positively denies that he is going to resign either as senator or boss of Pennsylvania. Evidently Quay has no desire to make this a glad new year for other people. This is Your Chance!
