The steel product of the Cnited States for'last year was about three times that of Great Britain and twice as large as Germany's The pig Iron production of this country also more than doubled that of Great Britain and Germany to gether. There will never te a return o wooden bridges, wooden buildings o wooden ships-in fact steel is being substituted for ood and other mater lals to hundreds of ways every year. The known supply of iron ore is of less than Sixty years duration according to the highest authority In estimates. With all these facts in view, it will occur to most logical minds that only rank mismanagement can bring any thing like serious disaster to the steel business in this country.

Turkish assassins have had a little demonstration of what may be expected it they start to shooting down Ameri can consuls. They will probably train their guns on somebody else hereafter. Dowle Is going to send n delegation of Zionists to Ctah to convert the Mor mons. It would be a good idea to in crease the strength of the military post at Salt Lake about that Juncture. It is a big drop from writing stuff about the pursuit of Tracy last summer to filling space over a Itind-omYe ap pointment at Latirando this dull sea son. But the space must be filled And what is it to the ordinary clO sen of Oregon whether a man named ravls o a man named Knowles is reg ister of th land office at LaQramle? X rich copper district Is being op ened up in Wallowa county. A railroad ten miles long has been built through a gorge connecting the mines with the Snake river and a steamboat construc ted for transportation down the Snake river to Lewiston. Several buildings have gone up and there is promise of a flourishing mining town in the near future. Southern Oregon copper pros pects are also being exploited by an English syndicate and claims are made that copper mining on a large scale will soon be in progress in that sec tion. Copper mining Is something new ta Oregon and adds another' to the states varied resources. An exchange has discovered that Joseph Brown, a citizen of California, who attended the Grand Army Encamp ment at ban Francisco, was a son of John Brown of Harpers Ferry fame. Salmon Brown, another son lives in roroana. a grand-daughter Nellie Brown was in Astoria until recently. She was a .member of the Salvation Army and a good violinist ' . ' Caleb Powers, after two successful appeals from a life sentence for com plicity In the murder of Goebel, has upon third trial, been found guilty and sentenced io hang. In Oregon this could not occur, since in subsequent trials here the accused may be con victed of crime in a lesser but not greater degree than at the first trial The reported successful treatment of little blind girl in New Tork with radium, used In conjunction with the X-ray, calls attention anew to the wonders of this latest remarkable dis covery of science. The experiment was successful Jn so far as It made It possible for the total blind eyes of the child to see sparks of light, to dis ttngulsh arc lights on the street and large objects, such as street cars In passing. The treatment is to be con' tinued. That such wonders can be worked with forces that we knew noth ing of a few years even a few months ago, compels us to stand silent to aw of greater worwjers to come, mayhap, of which we are yet in ignorance. This Is the day of science as well as of com merce and Industry. The holding of the national guard en campment at Seaside this year suggests the propriety of a military company at Astoria. Portland, eastern Oregon, southern Oregon and the Willamette valley have their organizations. The coast alone-is without a military or ganization. J A divorced man in Chicago took car bolic acid, but the woman in the case 4onk another husband. Desperation finds different ways of expressing itself. Perhaps the suggestion of replacing army horses with automobiles will be followed In some century to come, but the plan of abolishing armies may get into operation first. More than 150,000,000 is invested America's yachting fleet and of this fully, 140,000,000 is invested Jn steam yachts. The latter number more than 600 vessels. The approximate annual cost of running this fleet inay be fig ured as follows: Wages of 5000 profes- ionala, seamen, engineers, firemen, cooks, stewards, waiters and coal pass ers, 11,500,000; stores, including coal, ice, provisions, wine and entertaining, $3,500,000; repairs of all 'kinds and in surance, $1,000,000. In other words, grand total of $6,000,000 a season paid by the American people for the pleasure of steam yachting says Sport ing News. In twc weeks time Oregon and Wash ington, last summer lost $20,000,000 in forest fires, while the annual loss of the entire country Is estimated at $30,. 000,000 and yet according to the na tional bureau of forestry only three states, New York Pennsylvania and Minnesota have - made a systematic attempt to prevent them. Oregon has a law fixing a penalty for starting for esf fires, but it is practically a dead let ter and the government sends a few rangers into the mountains every sum' mer to prevent the starting of tires on its enormous "reservations. It is announced that Jim Corbett, the man with the dented solar plexus is to go on the stage in "As You Like It," which will surely cause the im mortal bard of Avon to get up out of his grave and carry his tombstone away on his back. It will be some comfort to our school ma'ams to know that the average term of women at this profession in Eng land is eleven years, owing to the re markable havoc wrought by matrimony in this very attractive portion of the population. San Francisco papers are darkening their pages with pictures of Rufe Turner and Sam McVey, (colored) in various , poses, as prize-fighters. Scenes from the the arena of a Mexican (jull -fight would look better. R'tieiimat -p- is Is Not a Skin Disease. Most people have an idea that rheumatism is contracted like a cold, that the damp, chilly air penetrates the muscles and joints and causes the terrible aches and pains, or that it is something like a skin disease to be rubbed away with lini ment or drawn out with plasters; but Rhuematism originates iu the blood and is caused by Urea, or Uric Acid, an irritating, corroding poison that settles in mus cles, joints and nerves, producing inflammation and soreness and the sharp, cutting pains peculiar to this distressing disease.
