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.
