THE GMT COUNTY IK January 2S, 1S92. THE WAR CLOUD. "Wo will probably havo pence. Tito clotul npponr to bo lifting, nnd tlio Now York IliraM' San tiago, Chili, special cnblogr.nn pays n coming from tlio Chi Han for oign ofllce, tlio Herald win fdato that when, within tho coining wcok, tlio entire tmijictb in the Jlaltiinoro case art! In poBucfliiioii of tho Chilian government, it will xiibinit its view nnd ideas to tho United States government. Then it tho two governimntM cannot coinu to an ngreument among thomiolve, nrbitration will bo nuked by Chili on tho pioMion in dlspnlo. becretnry l.iiehanan who. throiiuhoiit all lliU trouble hna done ovurything josiblo to prevent n rupture in tlio relations between Chili und tho Unite Status, asauriM ns that fioin nd viccw Kent bv Minister Montt. can bo jweitivcly aflsortoil that mat tors between tho two countries nro in nn extremely fair wny. II looks for it jieoly mid mnienblo conclusion. Secretary Maino, he wivh, Iiiib acted throiiuhont in conciliatory manner. It is tho uoneral opinion in uovoriimoiit circles that the alarming messages wired abroad have neon sunt by interested parties, with tho inten tion ol inlliiencing tlio money market, lowerinif the bonds nnd nitrate companies stock. In contrress there isn widosproiu conviction that war will not bo the necessary outcome of tho pros out complications between the Tiiited States and Chili, although there is also a ueueral belief the good temper and forbearance of .1 . !. i...; ... I.. ..!..,! mis country in ueum nuruiy mini by the oxnsporating procrastination of the Chilian irovcrninont in its correspondence. A Pacific coast ponator tersely Hummed up the views of many of his colleagues when ho said: "There will bo no war, Chili deserves a spaukir.g, but tlio I, mted Mutes cannot allord to sncralico her dignity and play schoolman!) unless it is absolutely necessary, and it is not. Our gov eminent adopted such a quiet diuiiilio.l tone in its correspond eucc and has awaited tho pleasure of the ClnliatiB in the conclusion of their littir-splittini', cqnivocat iug judicial inquiry with so much patience thai thu little South American nation has irown pre sumptuous, but they at last have eomo to realize the fact that the dii'uitv of this country is not to bo trilled with, nnd when the pros ideut's ultimatum is sent they will eomo down from their lofty position and make due reparation.'1 It is thought by many that the decision of the supremo court to the effect that a witness cannot be compelled to give testimony that will criminate him, will seriously hamper the work of the interstate commerce commission, as It is re gnrded as next to impossiblu to novo violations of law without bo iiil' able to compel the shipper and tho railroad man, suspected of violating thu law, to testify. An attempt will bu made to remedy this very serious, dofeet in tho in torstnto'eoinmoivo law by congres sional legislation. The Salvation Army has been established in littttu for one year, and in a sttmmnry of what it lias done, tho Inter -Mountain states tlmt it has enlisted ISO men who one year ago were in thu slums and gutters, but who now lead honorable nnd industrious lives. Thin is n record of which tho Army mny well bu proud, and the inci dent gous to show that the Salva tion Army, besides being thu butt of many a joke, is capable of doing some good. Kourtli-chiBs postmasters will ho interested in a bill introduced into tho senate, providing that they shall bo paid upon a basis of the whole amount of box rent collect rd and commibbioned upon revenue from all sources as follows: On lirtt So() or less per ipiaitcr, 100 per cent; on tho next 100 or less per quarter, 110 per cent; on the mut S-00 or less per quarter, HO percent; ami on all thu balunco HO per cent. Governor llanw says that .Mon tana is in favor of n Western man for president, nnd pins his faith to governor Holes. It is pretty well understood by tins time that in case Cleveland drops oit or tho race, Holes is to command the Clooland following. In short it is thu Cleveland-Hoius combination pitted against thu Hill Gray com bine, with thu woods full of dark horses. Portland Telegram.
