REDUCTION
:
The great waterways of this country
are capable of a wonderful growth and
improvement. The' recent "disasters
upon the Mississippi should be guarded
against as much as circumstances will
allow. And, speaking of the Mississippi,
the day is not distant when its northern
arm will be connected with our inland
oceans and a ship may sail from New
Orleans to Chicago. Then will come
the Nicaragua canal, by which that
same vessel may proceed t directly into
the Pacific and down the western coast
of South America. There is no doubt
that a ship canal will be cut from the
lakes to the Atlantic. Congress has al
ready been asked to provide for surveys
- and make estimates, and when Brother
Jonathan gets so far the end is assured.
Canada is enlarging those waterways
which would admit British war vessels
. from the St. Lawrence river to these
lakes, and at present we have no avenue
of approach. Under these conditions,
in a few years from date, the grey
hounds of the ocean will traverse lakes
Erie, Huron, Michigan and Superior,
anchoring in Chicago and Dulutb. A I
direct connection via the enlarged Erie
canal and the Hudson river will open
no another stream for traffic to New
.York. Talk of ship building and re
vived maritime interests! What will
people behold who live another fifty
years? That not only railway but naval
'Supremacy belongs to this republic, and
that supremacy will entail a commercial
importance which today is only feebly
shadowed.

The litigation between lawyer (ioode
and Alex Ik-rry of Condon, still boils
with unabated fury. Berry moved to
Marion county about three weeks ago,
takinif alone a few bead of horses on
which Goode claims to hold a mortgage.
Last week he had Berrv arrested on a
charge of larceny by bailee, and Consta
ble Carlisle went down to Salem and
brought him back to Arlington. The
"Globe says Berry 'demanded a trial, and
as Goode did not appear to conduct tne
prosecution, Squire Zeigler dismissed
fthe case and Berry was turned loose.
Thus poor old Gilliam is "in for it'
again to the tune of several hundred
dollars unnecessaay expense. It would
be a sirand thine for the country if the
law compelled orosecntinK witnesses in
ench cases to give bonds for the costs.
Speaker Cr"mp is out in an interview
in which he declares for an extra session
of congress and states his reasons, which
-are much the same as those of other
democrats who favor an extra session.
Why an extra session should be held is
not of as much importance as the fact
that he comes out squarely for it. It in
said that Speaker Crisp will be able to
manipulate the present house so as to
force an extra session if he so desires.
"Whether ne will do so or not is another
question.
Congress has adjourned for the holi
days, and will not reassemble until the
middle of the first week of January.
While not a great deal has been accom
' plished thus far, the arrangement of the
' appropriation bills is said to be well
under way, and their passage will be the
' principal work with which congress will
deal until its adjournment with tne in
coming of the new administration.
More than this is not expected, as con
gress at the short session rarely finds
time for general legislation:

Enough has leaked out in relation to
the proposed new tariff sheet of 'the

siasm in Spokane. That city is to have
rates which will enable her to bold a j
field distinctively her own. Where she
bad controlling competition before she
will in future have practically exclusive
