Amid nil the tumult and the shout ing; about 'American y:npathy with the Boer republics" it Is well to listen lo one clear, sane voice, the oicc of an tamest friend, of the lloers and probably the most weighty and effect ive critic of the conduit of the British government. "Neither the principles of KS9' nor those of the Declaration of Independence And recognition anu.ng the Boers." That is the testi mony of Mr. James Bryce, than whom the friends of the Transvaal profess" to know no better authority. It Is proposed to cut Alaska In two, make a new territory and name It Seward, In honor of the great states man who brought about the Alaska purchase. Its area is large enough for two territories, or a doxen, for that matter, and the name proposed for the terst one to be sliced off, though secure in the nation's memory without such celebration, Is the most appropriate that could be selected. But what la the r.;ed for two territories, when con gress has not yet been able, after twen ty years' consideration, to devise a full and practicable territorial govern ment for one? ' When the ship subsidy bill first be came a subject of discussion In the newspaper, objection was raised in Portland that its benefits would be al most totally monopolized by the At lantic coast ports and the Pacific coast would he left dependent upon its own resources, with greatly increased dis advantages in competition with East ern shipyards and trans-Atlantis steamer linos. As the biil was origin ally drawn there was really some ground for this contention. But when -..Senator MoBride proposed an amend ment to the bill providing that 30 per cent (we believe) of the subsidies paid out should go to the Pacific coast, hlch amendment was promptly adopt ed and Incorporated In the original bill, there seemed to be no further (round for opposition from this section. The McBride amendment, indeed, piomistd benefits to the Pacific coast. the disparity of its present volume of skipping considered, which were out of all proportion to those promised any other section of the country. ' But to the surprise of all who ar- In terested In the fate of the bill,' the Portland opposition still continued, and la spite of the recommendations of the National Board of Trade, and the sep- arate endoirement of every chamber of commerce and commercial organ!

From the objection that the bill favored the Atlantic at the t pciiso of the Pacific const, the oppo sition was switched to the (found that It would be of no avnral benefit to any section of the country, notwithstand ing that the boards of traJe of Boston, New York, Philadelphia, ' Baltlmoie. Charleston tS. C), Now Orleans, and those f all the tur&e renters of the Middle West supported the bill and ninny of them earnestly memorialist congress for Its passage. It has been hard to sie the motive for this peculiar and arbitrary attitude of Portland. Various explanations have boon as siKned, some having to do with the lack of an Independent medium of pub lic expression In Portland, others reflecting on the good sense and degree of information of Portland people, later deveh pmt nts. however, seem to point to another and much more prob able elucidation of the mystery. The subsidy bill, as Is well known, is dc-signed to stimulate the construction of steamers rather than sailing vessels. The aid exten led, too, Is graded upon the basis of tonnage tending thus to encourage lare vowels and speed, thus placing a direct premium on deep sea vtsjels over any other class of craft, and favoring steam, rather thau sailing ships. Here we have the most pl.iusible explanation of ;he Oregon ian's unique destitution of being the only important paper in the country righting the subsidy bill, und It Is a clearing up of that vexed problem, we are happy to say, which tends rather to the credit than discredit of that paper's Intelligence and discrimination. Port land cannot hope to share In a traffic which employs steam vessels of large tonnage, and consequently opposes any measure which would operate to In crease their employment or construc tion on the Pacific coast. 5LBSIDY BILL WILL BENEFIT PRODUCERS. Tar-oma Ledger. The Oregon farmer Is paying 8 to I cents per bushel more to the shipowner thun he paid a few years ago, when ! he hai less freight to ship; but under ! the tame condition, with a subsidy, J ..r uu.u u ue pajr.nB i.ie same rate I and an additional tax with which to l provide the subsidy. Portland Ore- gonlan. No doubt "under the same condl- ! lions" the farmer would be paying the j same rate, plus his share of the tax. I lnp lraa'J uroa tn- tMeiiic will r,,p J low-ever, the same conditions would ' i,Jly srow t0 will that across not obtain If the subsidy bill becomes j the At;tl5. Tiiat means a levelop- a law. The Oregonlan points out that ocean freights on the Pacific coast have ! reached the highest point for twelve years and as a consequence farmers are oompelled to ray higher freight ! 118 ,1-'vt'opment, an enormous business rates, really to sell their wheat at that , & sn'u ,,'-'niaml " the Indus- much lower prices. Th.-re Is no doubt ! triei of the stute8 wesl ol lhe J' cky that "this prosperity of the shipowner i niuUt'"-'- If working a hardship upon the farm- j Th,i i(lt;a thttt u'ls country is ap era," but advocates of a subsidy bill ! lr-Mi-g finished conditions In a nils ire not usln? the fact as an "argument i take- 0ur Jev,-loPnent has only be- in favor of still further taxing the pro ducer." It is admitted that the present high freight rates are the result of a scar city of tonnage. The British govern m nt has taken more than a million tons of merchant steamers for govern ment service; the United States has taken from the merchant service a large amount of tonnage, and these, with the enlarged nitrate trade and the large Increase In general merchandise, has made a scarcity of vessels with the natural result of Increasing rates. The Oregonlan argues that as every freight carrier is making money, shlp: yards will continue building ships, and alleges that all the subsidies that could be piled up for owners would not re duce freights one shil:lng "so Ping as the supply of freight exceed J that of tonnage." It is evident that some action Is ntc tswary In order to benefit farmers an 1 shippers, to increase the supply of ton nage, and that is the object of the buIj ;'idy olll, to lncr;ase American tonnage. That Is Just what the cubwldy bill Is ir.t hd-.d to do and would do. It would incrcas; the number of American ship yards as well as of American ships, and thu Increased tonnage would have the effect of reducing freight rates to farmers and other producers and shippers sufficiently to pay their share of the Increased tax hundreds of times over. The American Association of Manu facturers, who, next to the farmers, are most Interested In low freight rates on exports, ore heartily In favor of the passage of the subsidy till, from the belief, no doubt, that it would Is of benefit to them In the way of reducing freights. They assert that the manu- facturers of the United States "want quicker, cheaper and more regular transportation to many foreign mar kets, which they now reach only by lines owned abroad and operated with out regard to American Interests. We want American lines of steamships which will carry our goods to South America, to South Africa, to Austral ssla and to the Orient upon terms a hantaseous as are enjoyed by our English and German competitors.'' Whatever will be the advantage of Amerloan manufacturers will be equal ly advantageous to American farmers. Tllii TRADE OF TllK PACIFIC. I hlladelplila Price Current. Willi China open to trade, and a new population greater than that of com bined Europe coming Into the world s Industry and commerce.

SIBERIAN RAILROAD AND WHEAT TRADE. OUR Chicago Times-Herald. Articles on the great trans-Siberian railway, whb.h have appeared during the past few years from the pens of travelers who have visited that region, have been pervaded by 'much appre hension concerning the probable effect of this great engineering enterprise upon the future market for Ametlcan wheat. Th'--y have found that Siberia Is not the bleak, fiose. n and barren des ert whkh Am-ri'ans hav,. been P-d to believe It is. They find Instead of froz en wastes of lie arid Know vast artas of the most fertile soli in the world, with a ioild iiui '-ip.aUe fl.inate, ad mirably adapted to the pursuits of hu'-andry. As a matter of fact, few people In this country have any adequate con ception of the vastness of Siberia. It is more than one-quarter of the entire area of Asia. Stretching from the Ural mountains to the Pacific ocean, It cov ers a territory nearly half as large again as Canada. It Is believed by many that Siberia Is detained to be come the granary of the world. It is also known that the central nglor.a ar atli! den;e primeval forests into which the. foot tif man lias nevc;r penetrated. What will e the effect upon Amori can commerce of the opening to the world of these vast forests of lumber and wheat producing areas? It Is averred that the completion of this great ral way will make Siberia a for midable competitor with Canada for timber, with England for Iron and coal j gHousnYorkis haul vorhritkit GoldDusf ) Wishing Willow Fufnituft ind Wider Chairs Tk.er cktlra sooa btceaie soiled, set ittr caa be deued loot like m wits Gold Dust Wisling Powder tad vera wear, I'm t trubbln kru.hi water becomes the leut tolled, l frost follow with t tort, dry chceee cloth, aed wipe in Thin Iroa beds tea alto be wetktd br tbls method, but ntiti be wiped dry quickly.

According to the reports of William Mitchell 'tunker, who Is Just returning from a Siberian trip In the Interests of the San Prtuiclseo chamber of com merce, this apprehension tlmt Siberia will become u serious competitor of the United States in wheat and lumber Is not oased upon accurate knowledge of Slberi in products. Mr. Hunker claims that the Siberian wheat Is so Inferior In grade that It can never seriously men tee the American product. The degenerates the first year In Siber ian .mil. lie also found that the trees of her vast forests are small and that most of her lumber comes from Puget sound. It Is his belief that the road will open up markets for American munufacturett products so valuable that the threatened competition In the matter of wheat Is Ineonsequenial an I not worthy of serious consideration. As a matter of fact, the United States has Already supplied the bulk of the material for the construction of the road.
