A DUTY TO CIVILIZATION.
The house of representatives haB taken
up the Armenian question and a resolu
tion been introduced by Representative
.Morse, which provideB for action to be
taken by our government. The provi
sions of the resolution are as follows :
; Whereas, Tho most mournful tragedy
of the 19th century has been and is now
being enacted under tfe apparent sanc
tion of the en! tan of Turkey, by which
hundreds of thousands of Armenians are
being ruthlessly slrughterrd in cold
blood ; women are being driven into
captivity worse than death, and the in
habitants who have fled to the mount
ains are dying of cold and starvation,
and -'
Whereas, The blood of these martyred
dead cry to heaven for justice;
Resolved, That the committee on for
eign affairs consider the expediency of re
porting forthwith some expression by
this government in denunciation of theaa
atrocities, and it they find we, as a na
tion, are powerless to act, that we in
voke the co-operation of the allied
powers to wipe the Turkish government
eff the face of the earth and secure the
freedom and independence of Armenia.
; America has been the leader for lree
dotn in the Nineteenth century, and
never was there a better time for de
claring its leadership over again than
now. The Armenian outrages are a
blot upon the boasted civilization of this
enlightened century, which even the
most pronennced action cannot efface.
Late as it is, it is not yet too late to pro
tect tho lives and honor of the people of
Armenia who have es ..prd the e'word of
the Turk. Ttirkey has forfeited ber
claims to the Consideration of the p -tions,
and ths Armenian question be
longs to the world. Let America de
clare that these outrages upon her lib
erty shall be stopped, and those nations
of Europe, who are not yet lost to de
cency, will proclaim the declaration
good.
The spirit of robbery Eeeuis in the air,,
manifesting itself in different forms.
Day before yesterday a street car was
robbed near Portland by a nervy rascal.
Yesterday an attempt was made to hold
Tip an expressman in the same city, and
last night the postoffice at Pendleton
was burglarized and the postmaster
shot. Crime stalks forth undaunted
and nearly every day come reports
from different portions of tho state of
bold deeds done in defiance of law. The
apparent ease with which criminals find
it possible to evade the punishment the
law provides, has made them bold.
Technicalities, delays and the devious
-ways known to those skilled in the art,
have made it so that the ultimate ac
quittal of a man charged with crime is
looked upon as a matter of course. The
lault lies not so much with the jury sys
tem as with the practice of the supreme
court in construing laws so that justice is
made subservient to narrow technical
ities. Juries are more ready to convict
than the supreme court sesms willing
to sustain just convictions.
Senator Squire's bill for coast defenses
provides for the expenditure of $87,000,
"000, the whole to be made available im
mediately, if so ordered by" the president.
If not used immediately the money is to
be expended as follows: In the year
ending June 30, 1896, $1,500,000; in the
year thence next ensuiDg, $5,500,000,
and in each fiscal year thereafter $8,000,
000. The points referred to in the bill
as requiring immediate fortification are
thus described : "New York, San Fran
cisco, Bob ton, (the lake ports), Hampton
Roads, New Orleans, Philadelphia,
Washington, Baltimore, Portland Me.,
11 hod e Island, ports in Narragansett
bay, Key West, Charleston. S. C, Mo
bile, New London, Savannah, Galveston,
Portland Or., Pensacola Fla., Wilming
ton N. C, San Diego Cal., Portsmouth
N. H., Cumberland . sound, at Fort
Clinch, the Kennebec river, at Fort
Popham, New Bedford Mass., the ports
on the Penobecot river, Maine, Fort
Knox, New Haven,- Conn., and Paget
sound.
Great Britain is showing the effect cf
President Cleveland's message. It is re
ported she is now willing to treat di
rectly with Venezuela and thus preserve
her . dignity and pursue a course satis
factory to the United States. It has
finally dawned upon the sluggish Brit
ish ' mind that, illy prepared as this
country is for war, we would accept the
issue quickly if England persisted in ber
determination to override our demand
lor arbitration of the Venezuela matter.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Evening Telegram: Journalist Nor
man is more of an American than Jour
nalist Pulitzer. How would Mr. Bull
like to swap?
Spokesman Review: Senator Squire
of Washington is coming to the front as
a champion of coast defenses, and his
opinions on the matter are widtly dis
cussed by all the prominent newspapers
of the Union. He has entered upon 8
campaign which will ultimately place
the rich seacoast cities in absolute eafetv
from plumder by foreign powers in case
of sudden war, and he is awakening the
masses from their dreams of fancied se
curity. Senator Squire thoroughly real
izes that modern appliances must be
met with modern appliances and could
not have eelected a better time to push
his plans for seacoast de.'ense.
Pendleton East Oregonian : People in
Pendleton will remember Kev. V- Mar
shal law. Ho was the rector of the
Episcopal church at Walla Walla for a
number of yeare. He visited Pendleton
frequently. For the last year or two he
has been Vector of a church in Oakland,
California. Owing to the troubles of
the Rev. Brown in San Francisco
"Doctor" Law "has announced that he
will not receive women parishioners, un
less accompanied by a relative, in bis
study at the church." Ob, spare us
from such frauds as "Doctor" Law !
Women who call on him need the pro
tection of eomelady, and his "announce
ment" is entirely in order on this ac
count. It is to be regretted that the
earnest, faithful workers of the church
are harassed and compromised by such
hypocrites and moral weaklings as Doc
tor Law and Doctor Brown.
Much progress is being made in finish
tbe Commercial and Athletic club rooms.
The new floor is completed, and the par
titions up for the bath rooms and wood
room. The billiard rooms and gymna
sium will BTon be'completed and ready
for the furnishings to be put in. One
billiard table has already been purchased
and several of the gymnastic appliances
are here. The bowling alley will be the
last part cf the club arrangements to be
completed. The members are becoming
more interested in the club all the time,
and tvtry evening Bees an increased
number occupying the social rooms. A
gentleman from Sherman county, who
was iu Tho Dalles last week, said the
organization of the club wa-one of the
b st moves the people of Tho Dalles
ever made. The opportunities for doing
good to the city are boundless, and we
trust that of the many which will be
presented some will be improved.

Emulsion. For whom. ? For
men and women wlio are weak,
when they should be strong ;
for babies and children who
are thin, when they should be
fat ; for all who get no nourish
ment from their food. Poor
blood is starved blood. Con
sumption and Scrofula never
come without this starvation.
And nothing . is better for
starved blood than cod-liver
oil. Scott's Emulsion is
