'tS- THE FACTS IX THE CASK PjlHE DEMAND by the people of I the Willamette valley for the J ; "purchase by the general gov ' eminent of the canal and locks at Oregon-City makes the attack of the Oregonian upon appropriations for river Improvements in this state, 'other thane those for the -lower Columbia river and mouth only the more pronounced. - The difficulty with the Oregonian lies In the fact that it is not only out "of touch .with" the situation but apparently is not familiar with the exlstlpg condition of the proposed Improvement of the Columbia river even between Portland and the ea. ' It belittles one 'of the largest - projects for the improvement of the second greatest river in the JJnited States, and one that has been the subject of . unceasing labor of many ' people for more than a quarter of a century,; by assuming that the projects now under way are the re suit of some squabble. It bases its entire argument on the assumption that the city of Port land could if it would, control all expenditures for river and harbor improvements In the northwest. In its devotion to Portland's trade and interests, rlt overlooks the fact that repeatedly the commercial interests of this r.itv hsva t nit an nrtlva afand to have the rivers to the interior "opened to navigation. That is not la new subject, that this policy has 'been pursued for years. But two . years ago the very policy it now con demns was urged upon congress by a committee representing this state .and city, amongst its members being Seaator Fulton, Governor Chamber flain; Mr. Scott t and others. - This "committee stood, openly for appropri ations for both the upper and lower : rivers and so stated to a subcommit tee of the river and harbor commit tee headed by Mr. Burton. The result was that the mouth of the river was placed n a continuing contract basis and Celllo received la large appropriation also. . i-It now seeks to convey the idea tha it, and it alone, appreciates the necessity for a deep entrance to the 'river and a deep channel to Port land. What are the iacts? The lm provement at the' mouth of the Columbia river is on a continuing contract basis with every dollar recommended by the engineers ap proprlated. This result was largely broaght about by the very people it now attacks. The mouth of the river has never had a , more loyal supporter than Hod. Wesley L. Jones of North Yakima, for years past and now a member of the rivers and harbors committee, and soon to be United States senator from Washington. Yet Mr. Jones at a'meetlng of the chamber of com merce in this city told its members that the very policy now advocated by the Oregonian would result in harm to the interests of the lower river. ' Senators Heyburn of Idaho aad Ankeny of Washington as well ha the entire population east of the mountains have stood by us, but Insisting at the same time the upper portion of the river should be pro vided for. is u conceivable we would have this support on the stand taken by the Oregonian? Without this sup port would we not be a divided house when today the northwest sec tion never was o nniu r i.

We do not know to. day what the Issues of this war are to be. How much did those young men know about the Issues of this war wheja they went? How much can any gener ation or young '. men probably know about tha. Issue, of any war to which they may be summoned, fey the govern ment of their country?, I am sure the young men of 1881 did not know any thing1 about tha Issue, of the civil war. They went ; because they loved' their country and because tha . existence of their country seemed to be threatened. They went because they loved the union,! and thought , that that union was in danger. ,- v. . -y - . ...I Again, what I. the real strength of mi. councry among the nation, of the earth, when wo keep a snail standing army and but a small naVjl?. Why have the opinion and the word of the Uni ted 8tates been respected among the nations or tne earth when,, to all an pearances, we were without the means or physically enforcing them ourselves 1 Is It not because In this free eountrv. when our government needs tha force, the young men spring to arms? The very reason why we have been able to get oo with a standing army of 25,000 men among 70,000,600 people is that for eign nations and our Own people bel!ev that, when our' government call for troops, the troop, will be forthcoming, and that quickly and without much stopping to reason or anticipate the lssuos or the threatening strife. ir in the future this country shall be able to get on well and hold a strong piace among tne nations of the earth without maintaining such armies and navies a. have burdened the nations of Europe, It will be because the other nations and we, ourselves,' believe that; when the government of tnls country manes us appeal to battle, the youth will come. Now, this I. Just what our comrades who have died In this Cuban war oio, and I believe that they should be lastingly commemorated on these grounds. But I would not advise that any hasty action be taken with regard iu me torra or tne memorial.
