WASHINGTON AS A CONTRAST.
The maxims upon which Washington
conducted our foreign relations were
few and simple. The Srst was an en
tire and indisputable impartiality to
ward, foreign states. He adhered to
this rule of public conduct, against
very strong inducements to depart
from it. and when the popularity of the
moment seemed to favor such a depirt
pre. In the next place, he maintained
true dignity and unsullied honor. in all
communications with foreign states. It
was among the high duties devolved
upon him, to Introduce our new gov
ernment into the circle of civilised
states and powerful nations. Not ar
rogant or assuming, with no unbecom
ing or supercilious bearing, he yet ex
acted for It from all others entire and
punctilious respect He demanded, and
he obtained at once, a standing of per
fect equality for his country In the so
ciety of nations; nor was there a
prince or potentate of his day, whose
persona character carried with it, Into
the intercourse with other states, a
greater degree of respect and venera
tion. Eulogy by Daniel Webster.
In his peregrinations throughout the
country, doubtless on railroad passes
coerced from the railroads through ap
plications which they do not consider
it good policy to deny. Sir. Bryan Is
fond of quoting from the words of
Washington in order to erorhoslie hi
warnings that unless he is elected
president and the mint and soup houses
thrown open to the people, this coun
try will cease to exist as a popular
government Let the intelligent reader
contrast the element of Washington's
character and public administration so
eloquently referred to by Mr. Webster
with the utterances of the ex-colonel
on the duty of this country to interfere
with England's disputes with her sub
jects In South Africa. Could there be
a more forcible Illustration of the dif
ference between the Bryan school of
politics and that of the venerated
founder of tlw republic? It is Instruc
tive, too, In this connection, to recall
that neither any representative of the
government of Great Britain nor of the
McKinley administration noranypublk
man In the republican party has made
any reply or explanation in opposition
to the mouthings of Colonel Bryan end
the columns of discussion in the news
papers on the South African situation
from the Boer standpoint. Here we
have an example of statesmanship and
dignity against an exhibition of dema
gogery and vulgarity that cannot fail
to impress a useful lesson in politics
upon the minds of the younger genera
When your throat and lungs
arc perfectly healthy you
needn't worry about the
germs of consumption. They
don't attack healthy people.
It's the weak, debilitated, In
flamed membranes that are
first affected. Hard coughs
and colds weaken your throat
and lungs and make con
sumption more easy.
If your lungs are weak
scon's Emulsion
b the best remedy you can take. It
soothes and heals and gives tone
and strength to these delicate mem
branes. In this way you can prevent
consumption. And you can cure it
also if you haven t had it too long.
Keep taking it until your lungs are
strong and your weight restored.

SCOTT . BOWMi, Chcmuu. Mew York.
Hon of voters In this country which

next November. , ..
Mr. Frank Spittle Is authority for the
statement thiil the excitement In the
East concern ne, the gold fields at Cape
Nome exo oils tl at of the K c-ndike. He
says that in nil the large cities lie vis
ited -St. raul, I'hUngo, New York and
other, no subject was so universally
di.-uuswd as that of the t'aiv Nome
diggings. It is probable that the rush
th-re this spring will ex.-eed any like
movement ever known In this country
But, Mr. Spittle fays, Oregon stands
to get no benefit from It. fan Francis
co, Seattle und Tacoma are the only
pi ice known In the East from which
the Cape Nom lei ritory can be rea-.-n-d
I'ortland Is unheard of In that con
nection. Can any one dispute that
something Is the matter with Oregon
in the llsht of these facts? A few
years ago the Columbia river was th
most prominent section of the Tactile
Cvvtst In outfitting any sort of expe
dition for Alaska. Now there Is no
way of reaching Alaska from the Col
umbia river. The trade with Alaska
has dwindled until there Is nothing left
of it. When the Klondike excitement
broke out the Oregonlan and other In
fluences wnicn ruie Portland ex
plained Oregon's ncn-partlcipation In
that business by ascribing it to the ad
vantages of the I'uget sound "Inland
passage." There was some reason In
this, although it was noticed that San
Francisco managed to keep up a pretty
regular communication with Alaska
notwithstanding her hundreds of miles
of greater d.stance than the Columbia
river, and without the convenience of
any "insUe" passage. Portland sailed
two steamers, we believe, to the Alask
an coast and then, like grandfather's
clock, stopped and ha never gone
again. And so it is likely to be with
the pretended line advertised (?) to
proceed thence sometime In May. Of the
three steamers of which the Oregon
Ian Informs an Inquirer living within
a few miles of Portland, and who was
obliged to write that paper in order to
obtain the Information, the Eider Is
the only ship tilted to engage in the
Alaska trade, the other two being small
tu, hardly suited to engage in a
coasting business between the close
river bars of the Oregon coast. And
these ar the pretarations that Port
land has made for a share In a busi
ness that will pay San Francisco and
the Puget sound ports many millions
of dollars! Tet the "inside" passage
cuts no figure in the Cape Nome rush,
and it Is an actual geographical fact
that the mouth of the Columbia river
affords a closer rail connection from
all sections of the country to Cape
Nome by over 250 miles than any other
point on the Pacific coast Can it be
doubted that "something" is the mat
ter with Oregon and that It is the duty
of some of her business men to put
their heads together with the view of
ascertaining what that "something" Is?
Failure of the subsidy bill does not
seem to alarm the shipyards. At Bucks
port, Me., a shipyard closed since 1891
is about to be opened with orders for
three large sailing vessels. One of the
Bath shipbuilding firms has been or
ganised as a Joint stock company,
which Is understood to mean an exten
sion of its facilities on account of the
growth of business, and there are re
newed and more definite reports of a
combination of steel companies to es
laoinn a steel steamship plant l.ear
New York city. Yesterday's Orego
nlan.
But the subsidy bill has not yet failed
and there Is now a better prospect of
its passage, perhaps In a somewhat
changed form, than at any time since
it was reported. It will be noticed
that the examples of shipbuilding ac
tivity, without the aid of any subsidy,
mention-id by the Oregonian, are on the
Atlantic Cb.ist. As the subsidy bill U
undeMtood in Astoria, one of its ex
pected benefits will be to stimulate
shipbuilding on the Pacific coast by
equalizing the chances for the industry
here with the older shipyards of the
Atlantic coast, where posBibly the en
couragement of a subsidy is now not
needed, as well as with the heavily-subsidized
yards of England and Europe.
It will not be surprising if the bimet
allic amendment to the financial bill
Is dropped by agreement In the con
ference committee. Not that the
amendment does any harm or detracts
In any way from the republican party's
firm stand on the money question, but
because it Is utterly sl ly and useless
and loads the bill down with a section
in no way germane to its objects. From
the history of other bills, however, It
is impossible to predict Just what the
bill Is likely to look like when it is sent
to the president. The bill may be en
tirely reframed In the committee. The
members of the house are opposed to
some of the provisions of the senate
bill, but the senators are equally de
termined that the measure shall not be
chunjuvt, and there's the rub. In such
contests It Is the rule for the senate
to win on most p.ilnts, nnd there Is no
reason to believe that the fate of the
house In connection with the financial
bill' will lie nny different. The senate
eoiif-fv.i aiv always shrewder nn I
more expel leiued, and such men as
Senators AMrlch nnd Allison, who have
givat powers of persuasion, are accus
tomed to change opHsltlm Into en
thusiastic support. It will be Interest,
h it lo note how successful they lire
with the conferees on the part of the
house.

WHAT HE SAW NOT AT PORT
LAND. Taeotv.a News.
On the "Necessity of the Isthmus
Canal"' Secretary of the Navy Long
and Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
have written their views for the next
Issue of the Independent. Secretary
Long says: "I am heartily In favor
of the Nicaragua canal and of a Pa
die cable. They are both necessities
In this progressive age and they aro
sure to come.
"Without having made a thorough
study of the question, and holding my
views subject to further light, I think
they should be constructed and con
trolled by the government of the Uni
ted States."
Secretary Wilson says:
"I believe in the Isthmus canal. It
will be invaluable for commercial pur
poses: It will greatly lesten the ex
pense of transportation from ocean to
oc-an.
When I as at Tacoma not long
since I saw in the harbor a vessel of
about 3.500 tns burden loading fur the
China trad-;. It had railroad ties and
flour, which It got on the Pacific coast;
Milwaukee had sent, I should say, a
thousand barrels of beer across the
country; Chicago had sent canned beef
and oleomargarine; Philadelphia had
sent sugar-making machinery clear
across the country; Virginia and Ken
tucky had 1,200 hogshead of tobacco In
that vessel going to Japan; Alabama
had sent Iron and steel away north to
the latitude of Tacoma and westervva.-d
to reach that port on the Pacific;
North Carolina had bales of cotton
goods going to Shanghai; New England
had boxes of notions and bicycles. All
these in a single vessel.
''Now, when I reflected on the ex
pense of shipping all these goods to
put them on a boat at Tacoma I con
cluded that we ought to have that
ditch dug across the Isthmus, The
trip of the Oregon converted the na
tion." Secretary Wilson in his practical way
of looking at things has hit upon a
phase of the subject that is attracting
more attention as the certainty of the
early building of the canal becomes
mure apparent. There will be 'lOme
compensation for the Puget sound
cities but on the whole the building of
the canal will draw off a gojd deal of
the trade they now possess. The cot
ton may not come here en route to
Japan, nor wiP. the returning silk and
tea likely be shipped here when by
going through the canal It can reach
Its market in New York without break
ing bulk. The element of time will be
all that will favor Its shipment by
rail.
On the other hand the canal will
mak'; It possible to ship raw materiul
to the coast for manufacture for other
markets.
Considered only as a local measure
the Nicaragua canal will undoubtedly
be more detrimental than beneficial but
we have no right to look at It from
the selfihh standpoint. The canal will
undoubtedly be of great benellt to "he
people of the United States as a whole
and what benefits and enriches them
can do not lasting harm to the people
of the Pacific coast.
Tacoma must give the railroads such
adequate terminals, and such low
grades over the mountains that they
can afford to offer Inducements for the
breakage of cargoes and their cjulcker
dispatch across the country by rail.
Had we no faults ourselves, we
should take less pleasure In observ
ing those of others.
