Paper That Bngsndsxs Hatred. The specific charge on which the f resent action was taken was a pun ished attack on Dean Worcester of tho Philippine commission, in which he was charged with everything except being an honest and truthful man. That too late these sllngers of the Journalistic vitriol have deciphered the handwriting on the wall Is shown In the editorial lament, which appeared ths day following the arrest of the offend ing staff. In part this reads thus: T'Is this the inauguration of the 'era of sorrows'? There are positive symp toms that this is so, but it would be better to silence the 1 organ of pubiio opinion and obligs them to applaud all official measures adopted." This paper, which has been - n whlpped of Justice during a treasonable existence of several years,, never pub lishes ths story of a serious crime in which natives are implicated. Its one policy has been to engender hatred against Americans, and the fact that It has been allowed to continue on Its dangerous way is a typical evidence of the policy of vacillating weakness which has marked the civil administra tion. Too Hnea Bapid Pire Autonomy. The policy of giving native agitators positions of trust to quiet their attacks on the government Is charged with the responsibility for the recent epidemic of cholera In Manila. The dreaded disease found its way to this city. It is claimed by the American healCh of ficers, through the failure of the native officials In the provinces to take any precautions to prevent Its spread. One provincial health officer was found at tending a wake over the body of a cholera victim and he displayed some peevishness when he was led away from the joyous function and immersed in a carbolic bath. It is pointed out that the American policy of taking a semisavage people and preparing them for autonomous government In five years has been a case of attempting the Impossible. The development of the islands has ' been greatly retarded Owing; to men of capital refusing to Invest until a status and secure government is established and until restrictions are placed on the ever increasing authority being vested in Incompetent and criminal natives. Every American resident of the arch ipelago, Irrespective of political affilia tions, celebrated ths election ef Taft as the promise of a much needed change of policy. The framing of this new policy is expected to be intrusted large ly to General Luke Wright, who Is ex pected to continue to hold the war port folio. General Wright was the one gov ernor general who held a tight reir on the Filipinos, and it was his opposition to the administration's policy of vacil lation which resulted In file being trans ferred from Manila to Tokio. Capital Bad Grown Bopeless. An optimistic spirit has taken pos session of ths American colorvy since the election and many new enterprises are being launched. A number of the leading merchants state that but for their belief that President Taft will make radical changes in the govern ment's policy they would withdraw from the islands. It is generally believed that Governor Si earner Breakwater Arrives Two Days Late Prom Coos Bay. The steamer Breakwater, Captain Macgern. whtr-h sailed from here at 8 o'clock litst night, had a very rough voyage from Coos liay and was two da'vs behind (schedule. She got away on time, last night, however,- Captain Macgenn reports that Tues day morning when the Breakwater was outside the mouth of the Columbia river, the wind blew with hurricane ve locity and whipped up a heavy sea. Prior to that the craft had been bar bound at Coos Bay until Monday after noon. She should have sailed from Coos on Saturday. The Breakwater brought 8000 cases rf salmon for Astoria anil a large Quan tity of general freight andcoal for thl port. ., f AKING PROGRESS WITH WORK St. Johns Shipbuilding Company Nearly Ready to Launch Perry. The new Vancouver ferry will soon be completed at the yards of the St, Johns Shipbuilding company. It was stated this morning that the craft would be ready for launching during ths early part of January ...... The craft will be operated between Vancouver and the Oregon shore by the Portland Light & rower company in onneetion with Its electric Una between this city end Vancouver. It will be much larger than the old boat and of great speed. ALONG THE WATERFRONT. The steamer Roanoke, ' Captain Dun ham, sails for San Pedro and way ports this evening. Captain Charles Pond.
