THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
California has taken an active interest
in the building of - the Nicaragua canal,
-3d while Senator Dolph represented
Oregon 19 tl?9 senate, onr state had an
abl and enthusiastic Ppp?rter Of this
great work. Caliorniana appreciate ihe
importance q( this cnal because it will
enable them to market the products of
their orchards in the form of fresh fruits
In the great cities of E a rope, and the
fruit industries of the state will never
be embarrassed by an over-stocked
market. With the development of the
apple 'orchards of this state we shall
need the same quick route to Europa.
Bat right now the opening of this canal
would make an incalculable difference
to our state; transportation of wheat,
flour and wool would be facilitated and
the expense greatly reduced ; as facili
ties lor transportation are increased the
market is improved.
JOregonians geiierallyj we are afraid,
!d not begin to appreciate the benefits
which will immediately result to this
state by the opening of this canal. We
, certainly hope Senator Dolph's eucces-
aor will take as deep an interest in this
project as he did, and leave nothing un
done to aid the building of this canal.
REPORTED MASSACRE OF CHRIS
TIANS AT CHENG TV.
A very startling report is cabled from
London to the effect that the Chinese in
Cheng Tu have slain all the American,
English and French residents of that
city. Usually such reports, when per
taining to events at a great distance, are
less shocking than when they relate to
events near home. Upon this report,
however, all Christendom will take arms
against the Chinese government, and if
it proves true, a severe penalty will be
exacted ; but it will be none too severe.
When in Christian and well-governed
America we permitted a mob to murder
Chinamen by the wholesale at Rock
Springs, Wyoming, or repeatedly in our
own state Chinamen have been blown to
pieces by dynamiters, or shot down like
dogs, the world, and even our own na
tion, has been little concerned. This
report simply illustrate how much more
sensitive are the nerves of Christendom
when Christians are murdered than are
those of the followers of Confucius when
. their fellow countrymen are massacred
GUARD AGAINST FOREST FIRES.
The interior department having re
ecinded its order excluding sheep from
the Cascade Reserve, sheepmen should
see to it that no forest fires arise from
their use of the forest pastures. As we
have before suggested, a forest fire will
do more harm to the timber and under
brush in one night than all the sheep in
the country can do in a whole summer,
Let na show our appreciation of the
opening of the reservations by seeing to
it that no fires devastate the forests.
The people in the pretty city of Walla
"Walla have not only plenty of enterprise
but also a faculty of doing anything they
attempt in a thoroughly complete and
satisfactory manner. Four years ago
a party of soldiers .completely captured
the town and proceeded to shoot a gamb
ler named Hunt, who had killed a soldier,
Three days after the soldier was shot
Hunt was lynched without the formality
and expense of a trial. Night before
last, the dispatches say, a party of fifty
citizens well disguised and organized
tarred and feathered young Foseati, who
had brought down upon himself the con
demnation of the community for taking
into himself for a wife a dusky maiden
of the African race. The couple have
been compelled to leave town and Walla
Walla has given another example of her
ability to execute any task with neatness
and dispatch.'
There should be a large attendance at
the maBS meeting Thursday night to
nominate city officers for the ensuing
year. Just at present there are ques
tions more important to the citizens oi
The Dalles than the silver controversy
or the tariff dispute. The selection of
wise and capable men to municipal
office is an absolute necessity for good
government. Under the new charter
The Dalles must not go farther into debt,
and we must choose men who can guide
the city's affairs so that neither will we
run into debt, nor any excessive taxes
be imposed. This is a matter for bus
seas men, not politicians. Oar city
must be run as a wise man conducts h
"business, and only men should be chosen
for our offices who have demonstrated
this ability in th wise management of
their own affairs.
The attention of The Cheoniclb has
been called to the condition of some of
our sidewalks. On Second street, just
west of the First National bank is an
example of sbiitlessness which should
bring a blush to whoever the duty of fix
ing it belongs. We haven't read the
city charter closely enough to determine
the proper functionary, but . our city
council could do far worse things than
to provide somebody with, a twelve
pound maul and have the spikes, which
protrude above the sidewalk, driven in
to their proper place. .'It would be a
convenience to drunken men, who are
continually stumbling against them,
Jr ?? rePrted. that ft mass meeting of
Wdrking men, held in Omaha Sunday
evening, denounced the supreme court
for its recent decision in the Debs case.
The meeting was addressed by "Gen
eral" Kelley, of industrial keep-off-the-grass
fame, and others. This explains
how the meeting came to be designated
as a meeting of "working men." Work
ing men are not concerning themselves
much about what the courts do with the
violators of the law ; the denouncers are
the kind who followed Coxey and Kelley
to Washington, and were there com
pelled themselves to obey the law, and
keep off the grass.
Chili has imitated the "diabolical and
astardly" example of the United States
and demonetized silver. We wonder
who its "conspirators" are who thus
have undone the nation. The "robbers
of the poor" have gotten in their treach
erous work there, and hereafter the
'gold bugs will rule." We hope the
Evening Telegram will not think we are
serious in the foregoing.
