The Fry? ship subsiJy bill Is designed
to promote ship building for foreign
trade. It !a expected to save for the
American people the hundreds of mil
lions now- pail by them each year to
fore'gn ship owners for carrying Ameri
can products to foreign markets. The
purpose of the bill la to eliminate, to
tome limited extent, the advantage
enjoyed by foreign ships In American
trade over American ships on account
cf the P-wer cost of loreigi shp con
struction and sailor wagfs paid, yet
none of the subsidy opposes news-I-apers,
including the Oregonian, have
to stated the obJ-?cta of the bill. In
yesterday s edition of the Portland pap
er a long article appears on the In
iquity of wrat If terms to subsidy
graft." The article starts out with a
glowing description of the present un
exampled activity of American ship
yards and declares that American ship
buildlug and ship owning are today the
most remunerative Investments In
which capital can be employed. It says
that In the face of this prosperity the
appeals of the subsidy grafters are un
just and ridiculous. Now Just why the
Oregonian, which pretends to be pub
lished in a seaport town, should wish
to perpetuate Us distinction a the only
paper on the Pacific coast opposing
the subsliy bill is not clear. Perhaps
it la because Portland can never hope
to share lu the direct benefits of any
shipbuilding plants which the bill might
tticourage on the Columbia river or
tlse where on the Northwest seaboard.
But whatever the motive may be for
such peculiar policy on the part of the
Oregonian. !t ought in all truth and de
cency to use only fair arguments
against the subsidy grant Many In
land people and newspapers oppose the
subsidy bill on the general principle in
volved In such forma of legislation.
They do not brieve In using taxes col
lected from the while people In aid of
any particular commercial class or sec
tionhowever much such assistance
may be needed or whatever future gen
eral benefit may be thus promised.
These people, and such few newspapers
catering to their views as are honest
belong to a bygone age. The Oregonian
Itself so degignaU-s them in the first
tutorial column on the same page of
the same edition In which the article
denounch-g the ship subsidy "graft"' in
question is published. The Orcgwilan.
therefore, does not oppose the subsidy
till on account of any principle involved
but, it must be believed, on the merits
of the bill. Why. then, should the Ore
gonian talk of the present activity of
American shipyards as a reason why
no Bubsidy is needed to promote our for
DON'T COUGH
Stop it with Scott's emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
A little coughing is nothing
the tickling, that makes you
cough once, is some dust; not
the least harm. You scratch
an itch, and forget it. This
cough is scratching an itch.
But the cough, that hangs on
and comes back, is the sign of
an itch that hangs on and
comes back. There is some
thing that makes that itch.
Inflammation: a germ per
haps; it's alive; like a seed in
moist warm ground; it will
grow if you let it, especially
in children.

CHINESE INDEMNITY QUESTION
New York Tribune.
The matter of pecuniary indemulty
at pear to be one of the chief obstacles
in the way of settlement in China. All
the powers are agreed that some Indem
nity must be exacted. The Chinese
government concedes It. But as to the
amount of Indemnity to be paid there
are reported to be wide and radical di
versities of opinion. China, of course,
desires to pay as little as possible, and
as a matter of fact Is not able to pay
much without bringing millions Of her
people to outright starvation. Some
powers are in favor of requiring from
her only the actual value of property
destroyed and amount of expense in
curred, and a round but reasonable
turn for the lives of thofe foreigners
who were murdered by the Boxers.
Such indemnities China could pay, and
would pay. Other powers seem to favor
the exaction of exemplary damages of
an enormous amount; they have sent
unnecessary troops to China, on dou
bled or even quadrupled pay. Intending
that China shall foot the bills, and they
seem inclined to draw up a total bill
of claims somewhat after the fashion
long since a byword, "for killing two
missionaries, or.e province." There Is
scarcely any room for doubt that China
would be quite unable to meet any such
demands, and their enforcement would
mean simple spoliation of the empire.
Settlement or spoliation, then, is the
alternative. Between the two it should
be easy for any nation to make choice.
Every nation has professed a desire for
settlement and has disclaimed all pur
pose of spoliation. And the way to set
tle Is to settle, to adopt terms with
which it is possible to comply. To de
mand impossible terms Is to make set
tlement impassible and to compel spoli
ation by indirection. It would not be
pleasant to think that any power delib
erately meant to do the latter. The
burden of controlling and governing th;
teeming millions of China and the dan
ger of violent conflict among rival
claimants in the partitioning of that
empire would be far too grave for any
power lightly to incur them. Nor is It
to be maintained that a vast and exem-
l plary indemnity must be exacted as a
lesson to China. It Is not the amount
of indemnity that will tell so much as
the simple fact of it. and the manner of
It, and the other details of the settle
ment. The occupation of the forbidden
city by foreign troops and the degrada
tion and punishment of some of the
highest nobl?s of the empire will Im
press both government and people far
more than any mere treasury looting.
The latt.T would. In fact, defeat Its
own purpose, because It would Increase
the burdens of millions of the common
people who had no part in the Boxer
revolt and who have no, animosity
against foreigners, but In whose minds
such animosity would surely be engen
Jered by crushing taxation at alien de
mand. Reference to one other feature of the
case may not be Inappropriate. A lit
tle while ago various members of the
European pre3 3ome of them reputed
to reflect official sentiment were hot
and scornful toward the United States
hk a country to which "the Jingling of
the guinea helps the hurt that honor
feel?." They contumellously portrayed
this nation as willing to suffer loss of
honor and to for?go retribution for out
rage and murder if so It could get the
cash indemnity which ;ts sordid greed
desired. The reproach was uncalled for
and unwarranted, and now by the bitter
Irony of the progress of affairs It is
turned from Its former object fairly
against Its maker. The very countries
whoss mouthpieces were most censori
ous of this country for seeking cash In
demnity are now themselves foremost
In seeking a mode of unsettling settle
ment of which th prime object will be
to squcvie every possible penny out of
China, and then in lcfault of more cash
to mortgage or to spoliate her territory.
Of ctut-se, no country wishes to con
done the hlde.Hw offense which were
perpetrated at IVkln and elsewhere In
China last summer, ttiln should b;
made to uffer for them and to make
all nparatlou In her power. But repar
