Aatorla, Or.,: May 1IWT th Editor
of The Journal It seama inert la on
, projaot of great merit .concerning which
Portland and atoria, can cooperate band
In band, each with a feeling that the
beat Interests of their respective ' com-
munltlea are being served, and thla ; la
the promotion of a. steamship line be
tween the Columbia river and Alaska,
to touch at aa many of the Alaskan
porta as possible.
- Aa the Alaskan trade situation now
stands Puget sound enjoys an undis
turbed monopoly.
Thara ia'.ahanlutalT-no doubt of the
fact that the Interests of Astoria and
Portland are Identical, both having
products that could be marketed to the
best advantage in Alaska. Astoria can
" aell to Alaska- groceries, fruit, vege
tables, dairy products, poultry and brick,
while Portland can llkewlae aell to
Alaska all of these products aa well as
othera.- . ' . ..
It baa been stated On one authority
that lue grocery business of Alaska
alone amounted to $20,000,000 a year.
As either Portland or Astoria are as
near If not a' little nearer , to Alaskan
ports than any Puget Sound port; It
ahould follow that freight rates ar as
cneap rrom eitner one 01 m uregon
r.ltlaa aa frnm Pus's t. Sound sorts.
And In this connection it might be
mentioned that while It is 4.Z03 miles
from Port Townsend to Yokohama and
4,781 miles from San Francisco to Toko-
nama, from the mouth or tne iwiumoia
rver .It is nearer than from either, of
these Torts. s
Adraatage of Colombia, aUrer,
While ttieae figures have no bearing
upon Alaskan trade, perhaps, yet they
do show the advantageous position of
the Oregon ports and from the common
ground on which Astoria and Portland
can do some effective promotion work.
80 far as the promotion of a steam
ship line between the mouth of the
Columbia river and Alaska is concerned
it is a very small matter, and five
or six frst-class mercantile firms the
like- of which may be found in either
Astoria or Portland, could establish a
line without any trouble, without any
financial outlay whatever, not even so
much as a penny.
Here is the plan by which auch a
line could be established:
It la & matter of comment that there
are many empty charters an the Pacific
coast at the present time' Now if five
. or six first-class firms should get to
gether and eend salesmen to Alaska,
cargoes could be secured in advance of
chartering vessels to carry them from
the Columbia river.
Furthermore, there are a number of
?roducts In Alaska . which could be
rought to either Astoria or Portland
with great commercltl . advantage.
Among these might be mentioned coal,
and there are many passengers between
the states and Alaska who would prefer
coming to Oregon instead of Puget
Bound, where there are many idle peo
ple. And all of these passengers, most
of whom are miners, would ouy their
firospective mining and camping utensils
n either Astoria or Portland If they
had an opportunity of doing .so and then
going directly to Alaska to use them.
Oannerymen Interested.
Another advantage that the steamship
lines would have from the Columbia
river to Astoria, is, that as most of the
salmon canning In the - United States
Is done either in the Columbia river or
Alaska, the canning companies thus

. Vancouver, B. C, May 6. It Is Japan's proudest boast that she has for her
worn ally the mightiest naval power in the world, and that between them they
eare command the two greatest oeeans.-indeed.manr Japanese statesmen-base
their assertions that there will, be no war In the near future on the fact that
the united States. would not dare to champion an Issue which would mean a
atruggle with England- and Japan, and point to the fact, that the recent treaty
between England and Japan blnda them to. make common cause the one with
J: the other when either; la Involved in war with smother nation. It will be re
called that prior to the close of the Russo-Japanese war the treaty, agreed that
the contractors should each be bound to support the other in case of war with
two or, more, foreign nations. The treaty made since then blnda the one to
light for the other If oven only one nation la opposed.
. But would Great Britain stand Vy her 1 nations are identical In the matter at
treaty in case war should be brought
about between the .United States and'
Japan T To answer this question there
are many conditions ana circumstances
which tend to point to one conclusion.
To begin with. It is a fact known of all
men who read current history to good
purpose mat japan naa lost ground in
the English heart. England realises
that if she la to keen her place aa the
miatreaa of the seas, and her primacy
in the commercial world, she must hold
on to every bit of international trade
she bow his, and lose none of the op
portunities that the future has In atore
ror her.- , 1
But Japan, sworn ally that she is. Is
Just now waging a commercial war
against British lntereata that Is pro
voking many an outcry from British
traders. She Is going Into India, into
China, into Korea everywhere that
British trade opportunities are to be
round, ana is mere converting war ai
lias into commercial enemies. That the
result Is a diminution of England's re
sDect for her side nartner In the east Is
as plain as day. Already the mutter-
mgs or aisconienc are neara ana evi
dences are multiplying that Japan's un
fair commercial policies are beginning
to react against ner. a cromineni Brit

"England and Japan axe in alliance.
But it would be foolish to ignore the
fact that the imperial and commercial
policy of Japan must inevitably, if
maintained, strain this alliance to the
breaking point within a single genera
tion. The wholesale emigration of J a Da
nese coolies will Inevitably create prob
lems involving a choice for England be
tween a cordial friendship with our
colonies and a partnership with Japan:
we will have to decide in China between
offending our ally and maintaining our

Republican Central Com
mittee Makes Vain Ap
peal for Funds.
"Wanted Money for campaign ex
penses. Apply In person or address
W. M. Cake or Major J. P. Kennedy,
chairmen, respectively of the Republi
can state and county central commit
tees." That is about the way it stands.
In the coffers of the Republican coun
ty central eommltte there is now some
1400 and all of this and more must be
expended to pay back bills Incurred
during the primary campaign of H. M.
Cake, or the late lamented municipal
campaign. Accordingly the managers
of the Cake campaign are preparing to
get money and the must have it soon.
Saturday night a meeting of the pre
cinct committeemen from the Tenth
ward was held in the Republican head
quarters In the- Marquam .building. The
feathering was -for the purpose of fram
nsr up the program for the next meet
ing of the central committee, to be held
tomorrow.
At the meeting there were about 25
members of the committee from . the
Tenth ward. The gathering was pre
sided over by Major Kennedy and was
Instructed by W. M. Cake, chairman of
the state central committee and man
ager of the H. M. Cake campaign.
Money Badly Weeded.
It was carefully explained by- Mr.
Cake and Major Kennedy that the great
nf iha nreaent moment was money.
The speakers said that the candidates
for of f ice had, with one or two excep
tions, refused to come through with
their assessments and that as a re
sult the eupboard was about bare. There
were, in fact, onlv 400 bones avail
able. A number of the delegates eaid
they had noticed that the funds were
low and that it waa impossible for
them to do much politics without ex
pense money. . , , M
It was announced by Mr. Cake and
Major Kennedy that the first of 'the
week a couple of .prominent members
of the organisation Would start out in
an effort to raise funds for the cam
paign. Thesd men were to make the
rounds of tne laitniui ana . see wuai
could be done towards raising a lump of
campaign axle-grease that would keep
the wheels moving until the end of the
campaign.
; candidates will Attend. '
Aa- Important, or- more so, however,
'Is the expected advent of the candi
dates themselves who have been Invited
to attend the meeting of the central
committee tomorrow, ways and means
are to be discussed ' at the Tuesday
night meeting,- It , was explained, but
the committeemen present were warned
, not to make any cracks about finances
to the candidates personally. It woufd
be all very well Tor the committeemen
treaty rights and commercial opportu
nities unimpaired: and In Korea we are
already facing the alternative of pro
test, or the limitation of a great future
market.
"For years England and America were
obsessed by the vision of a great Rus
sia, all powerful and all knowing, mov
ing forward into the far east almost
with the resistlessness of fate. Men
marked what was thought' to be her
campaign of silent, exclusive and ap-
and the growth of Russia was witnessed
with dread, for It was the belief that
where Russian power - spread the pres
tige and commerce of other nations de
clined. Today the shadow of the Rus
sian uoiiossus oestriuing tne woria rrom
the German ocean to the gates of India,
overlord of Persia, supreme in the coun
cils of Peking, master of Korea, owner
of Manchuria, has passed.
"Now we know the weakness of the
Russian irlant. But that which men
Pyesterday believed Russia to be Japan
now is. proclaiming witn au possioie
publicity her adherence to the doctrine
of the open door, she has adopted a
policy of national preference and exclusive-privilege;
nominally standing for
tha Intearltv of China, she Is maturing
plans that can have no purpose if they
do not Involve the passing of largo
parts of Chinese territory into Japanese
hands; Korea she lias alreay occupied
as her own particular territory. She
dnea not threaten India from the north
by the advance of armies, but her teach
ers are stirring up unrest among the
people of India, and holding up visions
of a united east. And her official
agents have for two years been at work
on a great trade campaign there aimed
directly at Lancashire's most profitable
market."
Great Britain Impartial.
Th.ift considerations in themselves
are pretty strong arguments why Great
Britain would not take the side of
Japan In an American-Japanese war.
But they are not half ao strong as
the fact that the only thing which
could bring about a war between the
United ' States and Japan is the very
question In which England has even a
greater interest than Amercia. Wher
ever England has a colony she finds
Japan longing to send some of her sur
plus population there. Wherever the
Union Jack is supreme the Japanese
would Hke to' become residents. As, he
gains more power, as he recuperates
from the devastations of war, that race
nrlila an A aalf asaartlveness which is
characteristic of the Japanese will. If
It sees the opportunty, Insist on the
right to go anywhere at any time. And
that means Intense opposition in the
English colonies. It therefore is but
a diplomato necessity mai ungiana

ation to restrict Japanese Immigration.

nearly so much aa England. If Eng
land and Japan could take the Phlln
pines from us. we .could certainly take
a willing Canada from them, and there
are the British "West Indies at our
door. ...
The Monroe Doctrine. '
Beyond this is to be remembered the
fact that every republic on the West
ern Hemisphere has had Its existence
guaranteed by the) Monroe Doctrine, the
upholding of which is essential to their
future aecurity and the Integrity of the
Western Hemisphere. They would be
expected to contribute to the upholding
of the power that has been their great
est assurance against roreign aggrea
slon. Add to this the moral, if not the
fhyslcal, support of one or more of
hose European powers which are Jeal
ous of England s sway of the seaa, and
?ou have a combination which even
he British lion would not care to
tackle.
Another item which would add to
the situation would be the unrest of.
India It will be recalled that once be
fore England's war In India was one
of the things which brought about vic
tory for Uncle Sam. Today revolt Is
In the air in this same India. Let Eng
land become engaged in an exhausting
war with the United States, and India
will certainly make the mot of the op
portunity to throw off the British yoke,
cutting herself off from the supplies
and markets of the Western Hemis
phere, and affording India her long
ooked for chance to revolt would bo
so disastrous to England that it might
easily prove her undoing as a leading
nation.
From whatever standpoint one takes
it England's Interests are against war
with the United States. Such a war
would be most disastrous to British
welfare and no one realties this more
than the venerable John Bull. The
world may be sure that Japan will not
enter into a war with the United States,
or give this country occasion to enter
Into a war with it. without first con
sulting Great Britain. And It is not
hard to conclude what England's an
swer would be. Her whole future might
depend upon that reply. When the time
comes for the choice to be made Eng
land's answer will undoubtedly be an
emphatic, stralghtout declaration
against war with the United States.
The Japanese statesmen who depend
upon any other response will be
grievously disappointed.
Her Vaval Supremacy.
England begins to see the day when
She cannot maintain her present naval
supremacy. For years it has been her
policy to keep the British navy just a
notch higher than the combined
strenrth of any other two navies in
the world. Recently the war minister
stated that he doubted If the United
Kingdom could much longer maintain
this policy, owing to the fact that Ger-
mp y and tne unitea mates naa em
barked upon such large naval programs.
He said to keep the English navy up
to such a point would cause a financial
strain greater than England could bear.
It was the necessity for economy In
naval defense that caused England to
enter into Its alliance with Japan, but
the saving accomplished In this way
has been more than offset by the trade
rivalry of the Japanese.
The one great fact In the situation
Is that Japan, being an island kingdom
like England, aspires to grow into Just
such a trading and shipping nation as
Great Britain. Whatever headway it
makes with this ambition will be more
at the expense of the English than any
other people. Therefore it is evident
that Japan cannot succeed in becoming
the master of Asia and at the same
time be used to bolster up British su
premacy in the same sphere. So long
aa England continues to foster Japan's
ambition she Is merely grooming a dan-
ferous rival for her own position In
he far east.
