AMERICAN SHIPPING.
There is one question of vital im
portance to be met by the American
people and by congress, and that is,
Shall we abdicate as , a commercial
nation and allow the European nations
to obtain the commerce which naturally
belongs to us?
8 England and France arcloutstripping
us in obtaining South American trade.
Why? Simply because they encourage
the building and running of steam
ships to these our neighbors. All
these countries would naturally trade
with us. But we can not compete in
the carrying trade with nations whose
governments pay liberal subsidies to
steamship lines when we pay nothing
or next to nothing.
The present: annual subsidies paid
Wy Great Britain to her six steamship
lines to the West Indies, Central, and
South America, amount to $567,250.
The French government pays a
bounty of 30 cents per ton per mile for
every mile of steam navigation by
vessels built in its ship yards and sail
ing under its flag, and this bounty is
increased fifteen per cent, when the
designs of the vessels are submitted to
and approved by the navy department.
Besides this general bounty the
' French government pays to the steam
ship line to China, Japan and India
$1,714,604; $728,000 annually to the
South American lines, $790,000 annu
ally to the Mexican and West India
line, $930,000 annually to the Mediter
ranean lines, and $500,000 annually to
the New York line. . .
What has the United States done
for the American lines running to
Central and South America? It has
paid for carrying the United States
mails to all these countries' in nine
years the total sum of $146,098.11,
being a yearly average of $16,233.19,
for fostering ber trade with her great
sister continent. What the result is
can be seen by the following tables,

In anticipation of the , exposition of
the "Three Americas," to be held in
1892, Charles Henkle, an architect of
Washington, has prepared plans for a
tower 1,500 feet high, or 500 feet
higher that the celebrated Eiffel tower
in Paris. The dome on the cupola at
the lowest part will be 260 feet high
and 280 feet in diameter. Around
the foot of the tower iron buildings are
to be erected for exhibition and other
purposes.. Such a tower cannot be much
els: than a toy or a plaything, although
it may be some satisfaction to own the
highest tower in the world, notwith
standing the fact that it can t never be
a thing of nf'lity.
It is learned, through a private
letter to a friend in Corvallis, that
B. F. Bonham, the United States
consul-general to Calcutta, has sent
his resignation to . President Har
rison, the same to take effect as soon
as his successor is appointed. Judge
John Kelsay, of this city, has been
recommended to this place by the
Oregon delegation. Mr. Bonham's
former home was in Salem, and very
likely he will return there as soon as
he is relieved of his duties as consul
general. How much money do you think
John Bull has invested in American
railway stocks and bonds and various
individual enterprises? As nearly as
can be reckoned, the sum1 runs up be
tween two and three thousand million
dollars.
Wouldn't it be a good plan to use
some of Brown-Ssquard's "elixir of
life" right here in Corvallisl On Mon
day last some fellow asked "when are
they going to bury Corvallis?"
A Nice Reception. Last, evening . at
the residence of .Mi. D. P. . Mason, the
Misses Mason tendered Miss Maud Huffman
Corvallis' popular voting elocutionist, who
is visiting in this city, a tea party, which
the Democrat is informed was a very, nice
and enjoyable affair, entirely beyond , the
compieheusion of the sterner sex, excluded
on all such occasions. A" recitation, ar
tistically rendered, by Miss Hoffman, a song
by Miss Hitchens, of Corvallis, and an
elegant repast, were features of the evening's
festivities. Those present were: Misses
Flora and Vesta Mason, Maud Hoffman
Carl Hitchens, Lee Prather, Grace Piper,
Laura Vauue, Addie and Genevieve George,
Maude and Minnie Van Horn, Hettie
Miller and Miss Hollenbeck. Albany

Youthful Depravity. Sunday last
two voune "bloods" from Corvallis bacame
boisterous uuder the influence of some
"tanglefoot,' and were arrested and placed
under $10 bonds for their appearance on
Monday morning. One of them forfeited
his bail, while the other, a mere boy, gave
a pistol as security for his fine of eight dol
lars. The pistol belonged to a gentleman
in Corvallis, who came down after it this
week. Independence West Side, Aug. 9
