RISING SEA POWER
Germany Is Crowding Great
Britain for First Place.
FINE SHOWING ON EN ROUTE LIST
French Baric Europe Clean "With a
Bis: Corgro Another Steamship
Oomlnc Marine Rotes.
For the first time on record, the num
ber of German ships listed for Portland
Is equal to that of the British vessels.
There are now en route and listed for
Portland 22 shins of these two big: mar
itime nations. These figures afford a
striking: illustration of the wonderful ad
vancement that has been made by Ger
many In the carrying: trade of the world.
While the numerical strength of the two
nations as represented on the en route
list Is the same. In the matter of ton
cage the Germans lead, for they have
two of the larg-est sailing- ships afloat
beaded for Portland, and a third which
Is near enough to the 3000 tons net reg
ister mark to be noteworthy.
The German bark Bertha, which Is now
en route from the Orient for Portland.
is 29S6 tons net register, and Is the largest
vessel that has yet been listed for Port
land, her register being about GO tons
greater than that of the Royal Forth,
which holds the record at the present
time. A close second to the Bertha is the
German bark Edmund. 2532 tons, which Is
en route to Portland from Santa Rosalia.
The Peter Rlckmers, 2S25 tons, has al
ready loaded at this port before, but it
Is again en route, coming this time from
Hong Kong. This striking gain In pres
tige by Germany has nearly all been at
the expense of Great Britain, for over
two-thirds of the vessels on the list
which fly the German flag are Brltlsh
bullt vessels which were sold to the
Germans a few years ago, when It seem
ed for a time that sail was to be super
seded by steam.
STEAMSHIP COMBINE.
Pnclflc Mnil FIfrnrlne In a Xctt Tran
sportation Deal.
NEW YORK, Nov. 14. According to a
special dispatch from Baltimore to the
Tribune, the International Navigation
Company, which operates the American
and Red Star lines, will be the buyer
In an absorption and combination of 'ocean
ntoamship lines now being negotiated
there. Alexander Brown, of the banking
house of Brown & Sons, financing the
deal, is Quoted as saying:
"It Is true that a deal Is pending, but I
am not at liberty -to give out any infor
mation at the present time."
Further than this Mr. Brown would not
talk. It Is rumored that the Atlantic
Transport Company, of which Mr. Brown
is a director, will be absorbed by the new
concern.
The Pacific Mail Steamship Company Is
said to be included in the deal. The ac
quisition of the Atlantic Transport Com
pany would give the International Navi
gation Company a total of 3G modern steel
passenger and freight ships. J. P. Mor
gan & Co., of New York, Is also said to
be interested In the deal.
This is the first official confirmation 6f
the reported deal. Notwithstanding this
Baltimore dispatch, the consolidation of
the Atlantic Transport Company with
other steamship lines is denied here Jn
New York by Bernard N. Baker, the pres
ident of the line, who has Just come from
Aaltimore.

leave Portland this season for a direct
port in Europe. It was valued at
?77,K0.

"Lakevlew Examiner.
Lake County stockmen have sold $70,000
worth of cattle this Fall, most of them
going to the San Francisco market. Ash

The above from our Ashland contempo
rary is mislcadlns. The $70,000 worth
of cattle mentioned Is only a drop In the
bucket of what Lake County has done in
the cattle business this Fail. This Is only
the amount received by the farmers and
stockmen of Goose Lake Valley, Inde
pendent off all the other stock sections of
the county. A safe estimate of the sales
of cattle In Lake County this season Is
$450,000, and probably the sheep sales,
which are not so great as they were In
1S99, will amount to $150,000. The horse
and mule sales can safely be estimated at
$25,000 In Lake County for the year 1S0O.
This .makes a crand total of stock sales
for the present year In Lake County, Ore.
gon, at a conservative estimate, of $625,
000. The Examiner hopes that its es
teemed Ashland contemporary will make
a note of this, as frequently sales -of stock
In this county have amounted to more
than $70,000 In a single week.
People who are not aware of the exten
siveness of the stock Industry, In South
eastern Oregon can scarcely realize the
enormity of this single Industry, and the
amount of money that changes hands In
Lake County during the selling season.
Our woolgrowers have probably turned

BACK TO OLD MOORINGS
REPUBLICANS FAST REGAINING
FORMER PRESTIGE IN WEST.
Discnssion of Political Leaders Wha
Will Profit or Lose as a. Result
of the Late Election.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. The eleetton
have brought about a very interesting
condition in the West. Nearly all of the
states In that section were Republican
up to the time' of the gold declaration In
the St. Louis platform, and then the min
ing states, and some of the agricultural,
were lost to the Republican party on the
money craze. The recent elections have
seen the Immense majorities in many of
the states either wiped out or reduced to
a minimum, which Indicates that another
election will see these states safely in the
Republican party, where they were at the
beginning. The changes brought about by
the election will be seen largely In the
United States Senate, and beginning
March 4, 1S0L many new faces will be
seen as a result of the Fall elections.
Pettierrevr Retired for All Time.
One of the most interesting characters
who will retire to private life, probably
forever. Is Richard Frankliir Pettlgrew,
of South Dakota. He Is not an old man.
and In the last 20 years hid a rather
eventful career. He has been 12 years
In the United States Senate. For four
years previous to that he was a dele
gate representing the territory In the
lower House of Congress. Elected flr3t
In 1SS0 as a delegate, he showed those
qualities which have made him a suc
cess so far as he has gone, being an In
defatigable worker, shrewd and cunning.
During the close of his second term as
delegate he ran counter to the Adminis
tration as represented in Dakota Terri
tory, and when he became a candidate for
the third time for delegate was defeated,
but he turned the defeat Into personal
victory, gaining control of the Republi
can machine in the southern half of the
territory, and when the territory was di
vided and South Dakota admitted as a
state he was the first Senator chosen.
He served six years, and was re-elected
without any particular opposition. Four
years ago he left the Republican party
on the silver Issue, and since then has
been the most virulent of t5e onnositlon.
fo Democrat, no Populist or no other
opponent of Republican policies has done
as much in fierce vituperation and dema
gogic denunciation of tne Republicans as
Petxigrew. It was not strange that when
he appeared as a candidate for re-election
at the end of his second term that
the Republicans would make superhu
man efforts to defeat him, and there Is
more general rejoicing among a. large
number of Republicans over Pettlgrews
defeat than there Is in McKInleys elec
tion. Pettlgrew Is not In harmony with his
Democratic friends In the management
of the campaign, either in 1S96 or 1900. He
was at Kansas City trying to Induce the
Democratic party to reaffirm the Popu
list nomination of Towne for Vice-President,
and he thought that a great mis
take was made because Towne was not
nominated, but Pettlgrew was off In his
calculations, as he Insisted upon the 16-to-1
plank being adopted In order to pla
cate the Populists and Silver Republicans
of the West. He couldi not have been
very shrewd In political Judgment If he
thought that Bryan could be elected upon
a. 16-to-l platform, with Towne as his
running-mate. At the same time he
might have figured that such a combina
tion would have been successful In the
Silver Republican Ptates, and might have
been helpful to himself.
Would Use Money to Do Politics.
Pettlgrew Is a man who does not de
spise the use of money In politics, and
was anxious to organize a campaign
which would have Insured large campaign
contributions. He would have been will
ing to have made combinations with cer
tain large Interests that would have con
tributed largely to Democratic support.
The managers of the Democratic cam
paign refused his advice, and failed to
make connections with numerous inter
ests which would have materially assist
ed In the campaign. He did not think
that it was policy for Senator Jones to
again become chairman of the National
committee, as the policies which Jones
advocates, and his political education In
Arkansas, Is such as to preclude confi
dence among Eastern Democrats. Pettl
grew had more confidence In Gorman of
Maryland, Murphy of New York, and
Smith of New Jersey, as campaign man
agers, rather than men like Jones of Ar
kansas, Johnson of Kansas and Stone of
Missouri. He saw a group of men from
the Southwest managing the campaign
for the Democrats at the exclusion of
the Eastern men, save CrokeT, and this
was discouraging to him. In view of the
fact that confidence in tno Democratic
party and its managers was necessary to
secure support In the East. But all his
shrewdness, all his work, goes for naught,
and he retires to private life hated by his
former 'Republican associates and un
mourned by his Democratic friends with
whom he has lately affiliated.
It Is generally' understood that Robert
J. Gamble, who is now a member of the
House from Soutn Dakota, will be Pettl-
grew's sucessor. He was- endorsed by
the Republican State Convention for this
position and that will go a long ways
In determining the result. Of course
there are other men who are ambitious,
including ex-Senator Moody, who served
two years in the aenate when South Da
kota was first admitted, while J. M,
Green, and Frank Crane, both Important
factors In the recent Republican vic
tory, may be anxious to come to the
Senate. Still Gamble has a very good
record .and is from the southern part of
the state, whicn gives some prestige,
as Kyle, the other Senator, Is from the
northern part of the state.
Resnlt in Vtnli Wan a Snrprise.
The result In Utah, while 'not a sur
prise to a great many, was not looked
for by most of the Republican managers.
It Is true that suteh shrewd politicians as
Richard Kerens, or Missouri, and Perry
S. Heath, of lmrlAna, made a trip to
Utah, and from that time on confidently
claimed the state lor the Republicans. It
Is evident that Utah was manipulated
largely through the Mormon church. No
one believes that Utah can be carried
by either party If the Mormon church
Is antagonistic. Republicans were the
originators, the sponsors and responsi
ble for the throwing out of Congress of
Brigham H. Roberts, because he was a,
polygamlst. Of course a great many
Democrats voted with the Republicans,
but If every Democratic vote had been
cast In favor of Roberts he could not
have remained a member of the House,
because all of the Republicans save one
or two voted the other way. It was
natural to suppose that the Mormon
church would have been "incensed at the
action of the Republicans i the Roberts
case. Such was not the case, and the
result In Utah shows that the Mormon
church gave Its support to the Republi
can cause, which resulted in the elec
tion of the McKlnley electors and state
ticket, the members of Congress and a
Republican Legislature There Is a va
cancy In the Seantae from Utah and the
Republicans will fill It. Frank Cannon
and Arthur Brown were the first Sena
tors from Utah. Both were Republi
cans. Brown drew a term of two years
and was succeeded by a Democrat, Raw
lins. Cannon drew a four-year term and
left the Republican party in 1S96. Two
years later when his term expired a Fu
sion Legislature refused to elect him and'
was unable to choose any man to repre
sent Utah, For this vacancy there will
be quite a scramble. O. J. Salisbury.
E. H. Calllster. and Arthur Brown will
probably be among the chief contest
ants, though It would not be surprising
If the party would center upon Heber M.
Wells, who has Just been re-elected Gov.
I efnor, who, though a silver man, re-'
malned with the Republican party, even
when the state had gone over to Bryan
ism and to the SUverites.
Great Loss to Republicans.
The greatest loss that the Republicans
will sustain m the Senate is that of
Thomas H. Carter, who has had a, phe
nomenal career, and whose great ability
has placed him at the top of affairs In
his own party. He came to Washington
first as a delegate representing Mon
tana Territory, as a result of the elec
tion of 188S. The session following ad
mitted Montana as a state and In Octo
ber 1SS9 Carter was elected to the House.
He served one term In the House. Ho
was defeated and became Commissioner
of the General Land Office, He man
aged the Harrison nomination campaign
at Minneapolis in 1892, and also was
chalrmon of the Republican National
Committee In 1S93 and the four years fol
lowing. In 1S34 he was elected to the
Senate, as Montana was again Republi
can. His six years' service In the Sen
at has placed htm among the leaders of
his party and he holds Important places
on committees. There will be general
regreat that he was not successful In the
campaign which has Just closed. It has
already been suggested that he Is likely
to be offered a place In President Mc
Klnleys cabinet after the 4th of March,
and while it is doubtful whether he
would desire a cabinet position, he would
be a success If he could be chosen. It
Is more than likely that Carter will pre
fer to remain in Montana and take care
of on extensive law practice and await
the vacancy which will occur In the Sen
ate from Montana four years hence. As
to his successors. It seems to be con
ceded that Hon. W. A. Clark, who has
made the fight against Daly and won,
will be surely chosen for one of the Sen
ators and possibly A. Helnze. will be the
other, although there Is a suggestion that
Joseph K. Toole, who for many years
represented the territory In the lower
house of Congress as delegate, and who
has Just been elected Governor, will be
chosen. But there Is no kind of account
ing for what will happen in Montana pol
itics. Retirement of Wolcott.
Another Republican whose personal pop
ularity and whose brilliancy Is acknowl
edged Is Senator Edwara O. Wolcott. Colo
rado will retire him after 12 years' serv
ice. He is beyond question the finest
orator in the Senate and a lawyer of rec
ognized ability. He was unable to over
come the great silver sentiment of his
state, although he made the best fight
possible. There Is a very bitter contest
between the Governor, C. 8. Thomas,
Democrat, and Thomas M. Patterson,
Populist, for the seat of Senator Wol
cott, and It may be that this contest will
be so sharp and so bitter that some dark
horse will be selected. Ex-Governor Al
va Adams Is also spoken of as a possi
bility, and it would not be strange to see
Colorado deadlocked as many other West
ern states have been In the last six or
eight years. Patterson Is a power In the
Populist' party. He Is proprietor of the
Denver News, and was a Democrat up to
four years ago, when he Joined the Popu
lists. Thomas Is a shrewd politician, but
has a very bitter fight on his hands In
his own party, as well as with the Popu
list. Shoup Will Lose His Seat.
General regret will also be expressed
that Senator George L. Shoup could not
have succeeded himself from Idaho. He
Is another man from a silver state who
stood steadfastly by the Republican party
in spite of the fact that his state went
overwhelmingly for fusion and for any
thing to beat the Republicans. He has
put up a very game fight, as Indicated by
the returns, which show that the state
was extremely close. Shoup was not a
talkative man In the Senate, but he was
recognized everywhere as a man of keen
Judgment, and his advice was frequently
sought by the Republican leaders. The
general Impression has been that Fred
T. Dubois, who represented Idaho four
years as a delegate, and six years as
Senator, will succeed Shoup; yet nobody
can tell what the turn of events will
bring about. Dubois has offended some
Populists who make up the fusion ma
Jorlty, in the Legislature. Besides this,
some strange things sometimes happen.
Some of these Populists and some Demo
crats, might, in case of a deadlock, prefer
Shoup ( to a vacancy,' or prefer him to
Dubois. Shoup is a very resourceful poli
tician In his own bailiwick, and we shall
see what we shall see.
Great Rejoicing Over Nebraska.
Among the Republicans there is uncon
fined rejoicing over the result -In Nebras
ka. Not only are they- glad that Bryan
was defeated In his own state, but two
Senators, one for four years and another
for six years, depended upon the result
in the Legislature. Had the fusion forces
been successful In the Legislature It Is
believed that the pressure to make Bryan
the Senatorial candidate would have been
so overwhelming that he could not have
withstood It, and that his warm personal
friends, to whom his support had been
pledged, would have got out of the way m
order to have kept Bryan before the pub
lic for the next four years. It seemed
to be well understood, however, that Brya
had pledged his support to G. M. Hitch
cock, proprietor of the Omaha World Her
ald, for the Democratic Senator, and to
the present Senator, William V. Allen, as
the Populist Senator. As It Is there la
going to be quite a brisk contest for the
place, and the most prominent candidates
for the two vacancies will be George D.
Melklejohn, now Assistant Secretary or
War, and Edward Rosewater, proprietor
of the Omaha Bee. Both are handicapped
to a certain extent; Melklejohn because
he has been In public life and has been
unable as Assistant Secretary of War
to dole out all the appointments which
his people thought Nebraska ought to re
ceive; Rosewater because on various occa
sions he has bolted the Republican nom
inations and has opposed certain power
ful Republicans In his state with all the
force of his ' Impetuous nature.
At all events, the gifted orator, John
M. Thurston, will retire. He is no longer
a candidate. The fight among the various
factions may result In the election of
dark horses in Nebraska, and, in speak
ing of dark horses, the genial ex-Senator
Manderson -was always an ornament to
the Senate, and Nebraska might do much
worse than return him.

Exercise mi Hetiife.
Exercise is a splendid thing for a
healthy person. But when the Dody is
weakened by disease, exercise strains
rather than strengthens. Exercise will
not cure a "weak" stomach. It may in
crease the appetite, but it -won't cure
dyspepsia, ana an
increased appetite is
a curse not a bless
ing to the sufferer
from dyspepsia.
Take exercise by
all means but also

for diseases of the
stomach and diges

system. It strength
ens the stomach,
purifies the blood,

There is no alco

Discovery" and it is
absolutely free from
opium, cocaine and
every other narcotic.
It is strictly a temperr ce medicine.
"Ivrish to say that Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Dihcovcry has proved a great blessing to
me," writes Mrs. Ellen E. Bacon, of Shutesbury,
Franklin County, Mass. "Prior to September,
1897, 1 had doctored for my stomach trouble for
several years, going through a course of treat
ment without any real benefit. In September,
J896, I had very sick spells and grew worse ;
could eat but little. I commenced in September,
1897, to take Dr. Pierce's medicine, and in a
short time I could eat and work. I have gained
twenty pounds in two months."
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a cure
for constipation.
Falling Hair vanish
