SPAIN'S 1'OSITJON.
Spain has issued a note to the
pewers of Europe stating its position
with reference to the trouble be
tween that nation and America. The
note was addressed some time. ago to
the various governments, but the
contents are just now made public.
.As could be expected, the langunge
is specious, and an attempt is made
"to justify Spain's conduct in every
instance.
Principally to be noted nmong the
statements is the one that Spain is
willing to arbitrate concerning the
Maine nffair. This is where all
Americans draw the line. Here is
nothing to arbitrate in this matter.
The Maine entered Havana harbor,
the representative of a peaceful
nation. On the night of February
15, 1898, she whs destroyed and
over two hundred and fifty Ameri
can sailors killed. Although indig
nation rose to the highest pilch
among the American people, yet
calmer council prevailed, and the
nation waited until the inquiry of a
naval commission, composed of men
whose standing was the highest, re
ported their conclusions. When this
was clone nnd it was announced that
the Maine had been destroyed by a
submarine mine, the American peo
ple accepted the verdict, and they
are determined to abide by it .now.
It is unnecessary to add that Spain's
responsibility was determined us
soon as it was ascertaind that the
(explosion was external.
Murder is not a fit subject to be
adjusted by international agreement,
and this is what would be done
should Spain and America arbitrate
over the loss of the Maine.
For once Spain has gone too far,
a.n.d. W the end she will pay dearly
'for tier deviltry.
If the O. R. & N. Co. had from
the beginning shown the Interest and
lent its aid in the upbuilding of the
country ttlbutury to its line which it
is doing now, Eastern Oregon would
ibe In a far greater stage of develop
sent, and the company would be
richer by many dollars. It is a mi3
taken idea that railroads should nee
essarily be inimical to the spirit and
wishes ot the various communities
tbtoueh which they run, and we are
glad to see the Oregon Railway nnd
Navigation Company pursuing broad
er lines of policy. The success of
the various agricultural and stock
convections which have been held
this spring was due, in a large meas
ure, to the co-operation and enter
prise of the O. R. it N. management.
The upbuilding of tbo country will
inure to the benefit of all transporta
tion concerns.
It would not be at nil surprising if
the first real naval battle should be
"fought near the Fhillipine islands,
instead of the waters of the Atlantic.
Spain already has a pretentious fleet
guarding her interests there, nnd the
Halted States vessels belonging to
the Asiatic squadron have sailed in
-that direction. Should tlio Oregon,
"which is popularly supposed to he
iuiryheg up the South American
MMt towards the Cuban islands, be
jwUiy om her way to join the Asiatic
afj dwrUwre need be ilttle fear of
what ilw result of this naval battle
lid btt. Without the Oregon the
would bo more doubtful,
,tr!o4tao; asf well as sober
JuJfirt, will 1d every American
to belie vo that the Spaniards will bo
defeated.
The citizens of The Dnllcs bid tbo
yyoung warriors, who are answering
their country's call, GotLupcod.
They nre our boys, nnd the city is
proud nf their patriotic fervor nnd
the promptness with which 'they re
spond to what duty demands. We,
all of us, trust that there will be no
occasion for active service, for wnr
at best is a horrible thing; but if it
need be that battle wage, the patriots
from The Dalles will not shirk.
The Shakers of Mount Lebanon, a
community of simple, honest, God-fear-imj
men and women, have prepared the
Shnker Digestive Cordial (or many years,
and it is always the same, simple, hon
est, curative medicine that has helped
to make the Shakers the healthy, long
lived people that they are. The Shak
ers never have indigestion. This is
partly owing to their simple mode of
life, partly to the wonderful properties
of Shaker Digestive Cordial. Indiges
tion is caused by the stomach glands not
supplying enough digestive juice.
Shaker Digestive Cordial supplies what's
wanting. Shaker Digestive Cordial in
vigorates the stomach and all its glands
so that after awhile they don't need
help. As evidence of the honesty of
Shaker Digestive Cordial, the formula
is printed on every bottle. Sold by
druggists, price 10 cents to $ 1.00a bottle.
