Per President WILLIAM M RlXtCY, Of Olio. Por Yict-Presideat THEODORE ROOSEVELT, Of Xtw York. Tie Astorian has recti ved from the rromot?rs cf the Buffalo Pan-American exposition a series of magnificent views of the great buildings now being erected The exposition baa been plan ned on an Imposing scale and will be a fit celebration of the dawn of the twentieth oentury. San FranclscD Is enjoying an era of prosperity in the ship-building industry, which has gotten far beyond the capa city of local yards. During the term rf President McKinl?y, over thirty ves sels have been built there, a many more purchased in 'he East, fifteen or. twenty more ar still on the stocks, and numerous contracts have been Jet in Scotland. That California, after s.uch record, can cast Its electoral vote against the Republican adminis tration which has produced these con ditions seems altogether inconceivable. The Manila chamber of commerce. Just orxanlied. has sent to Portland a com munication requesting the co-operation cf the Portland body In the develop ment cf trade between the Philippines and the Pacific coast of America. A a mans to this end. the producers, manufacturers and wholesale dealers of American goods which might be in demand in the Philippines, or for which a demand might be created, are a?ked to send cata'ogues, price lists and samples of gods. There is an oppor tunity here for Astoria salmon packers to enter a field which has been prac tically ur.3ev.4oD?d. though Columbia rive salmon are found the world ovr. By Judicious advertising through the Manila chamber of commerce, the many valuable products of Oregon, hitherto nlmcst unknown In the Asiatic tmpirs, may be placed upon a market which promises to be Insatiable. WOE IS me:" The rwnt decision of the registra tion board of Batti.nore that Porto Ricans residing !n America are entitled to th franchise whenever they have complied with the residence prona tors of th state wherein they reside excites a howl of terror from The Dalles Times-Mountalner. which says at the conclusion of its wail: "If the Porto Ricans became citirona ty annexation so did the Filipinos. They came into the Cnion under the same treaty. A citizen of this coun try is privileg-ed to go where h? will without passport r permit. If the Filipinos are cltizns there is no law to prevent their coning to this country by the million, and since they are a people who can and do subsist on al most nothing, enter the labor markets and drive our ware earners out of the field. Vi'e can and have restricted the immiration of alien Chinese, but we cannot restrict the immigration of our own citizens, whether they -? Chinese, Tags log or whit not Our new clti rers are liable to prove a most objec tionable element." If tbt Filipinos were so anxious to come to thU country jchy have they been waiting for the decision of this wicked Baltimore board? The fact is that we have cevsr kept them away and never shall need to, for the sim ple reason that they have no desire to come. Hew many Filipino laborer doe the Times-Mountaineer imagine have gone to Spain in the centuries of Its pos session of the Philippines? The fact ia that the Tagaio is not looking for a Job and if ne were would not go to a cold country where he would require some cMSei. tn fcls back and a -roof ever hi head at the cost of harder labor than he has ever dreamed of. The Tagalo does nothing and live or nothing, practically shaking, 4 state it txi&tenc possible only In tropical climates and to uncivilised man. The few Filipinos who leave their Island to resile In other countries are not la borer but students or professional men. Lt the Tlm-Moantalnvr dry its eyes and calm Its fears! The worst peril wh'ch confronts us Is Pryanism, m defense of which It is publishing as argument columns of such senseless flush as that which we quote above. SPREAD OF ANARCHISM. Victoria Colonist European correspondents say that the anarchists are more busy than ever, and have formed plans of a very extensive nature. The statement is made that groups of ten or more in dividuals each have been told off to asasinat all European rulers, includ ing the president of France, .md Presi dent McKlnley is also on the list Spec ial effort Is to be made to kill the king Italy, the Idea being that if his death follows closely upon that of his father, a revolution will be precipitat ed. It is funher alleged that In Italy the anarchist movement Is backed up by men of large means, and also that In all pans of Europe the class which Is espousing these terrible notions Is recruited frxn the ranks of thinkers rather than, from workingmen. It seems clear that the anarchbts are pretty well supplied with funds, and it is alleged that most of the money comes from Italy and Poland. An al liance between the anarchists of West ern Europ; and the Nihilists of Russia is thought to hav been made. Much allowance must be mads for exaggeration in these reports. It al ways happens that after a ruler has been assainathl. stori of plots to kill others become very common: but there is little reason for surprise that in Italy and In Russia, the people are ripe for any kind of mischief. These countries have to maintain not only a sovereign, but an expensive nobility. The people might be able to afford the first, but the two together are more than they can bear. In British coun tries no Idea can be formed of the ex actions of the governing classes in It aly and Russia. The great nobles themselves may not be very objection able. Their education has made them indifferent to the conditions of the working classes and the peasantry, but possibly, man for man. they are quite as kindly and well-intentioned as any Jther people. Much allowance must be made not only for their education, but for the influence of heredity, not only upon them, but upon their dependents. These great nobles do not come direct ly in touch with the humbler classes. Between them is the class made up cf agents, stewards and so on. These grind the faces of the poor after a manner that we cannot in this coun try Imagine. A tithe of what the peas antry of Italy and Russia have to bear would precipitate a rebellion In any British country. To them th law is something which is ever demanding the small fruit of their toil, ever res training them from simple liberties, ever exacting from them more than they can possibly afford to give, eith er In money or services. It is not, therefore, a matter of surprise that thinking men believe that the only remedy Is in revolution. That they should countenance murder as a provo cative of revolution Is the incompre hensible thing. This is worse than Frarce during the :ast century. There revolution preceded murder. The situ ation in Europe is described as ex tremely serious, and the public are warned to expect at any day news of another assassinatiin. HOW BRIGHTS DISEASE STARTS.
