THE LA DRONES AND CAROLINES
- One feature of the peace protocol
of Aug. 12th is receiving tnuch less
attention than "it is entitled to. It is
the last part of article 2, which, pro
vides that Spam shall cede to the
United States "an island inLadrone
archipelago, to be chosen by the
United States." Reference was un
doubtedly had to Guam, which was
'"seized by a United States convoy on
the way to Manila
Edward Van Dyke Robinson con
tends in the last number of the Inde
pendent that the Ladrones and the
Carolines, taken together,,are as im
portant as the Philippines, though
they have only 1.000 square miles of
area and 46,000 population. His full
contention is of course little short of
ine aosurd. nevertheless it con
tains a grain of truth. Mere size
and population are not the only
measures of the importance of a
territory. Gibraltar has less than
two square miles of area, but there
i3 not money enough in the coffers of
all nations to buy it. Great Britain
would no more give up the key to
the Mediterranean or Malta or Aden
than it would consent to the disarm
ing and unmanning of its navy.
Mr. Robinson remarks of the. larger
islands of the Caroline chain and the
Ladrone group that they are in
"every way fitted to serve as coal
ing, cable and naval stations, com
mercial ports of call and of supplies,
and, if need be, fortified military
posts." The two groups taken to
gether lie near or upon the following
routes, destined to become the great
highways of Oriental commerce: Be
tween Australia or New Zealand and
China or Japan; between South
America and Central or Southern
Asia; between the United Mates, and
Central or Southern Asia; between
the Nicaragua caual and Central or
Southern Asia.
The two groups are to the Western
Pacific much what Hawaii is to the
Eastern Pacific. It is nearly 3,000
miles from the most westerly of
these islands to Honolulu, and at
least 1,200 to any good port in the
Philippines. For Spain the Carolines
and the Ladrones have never had
great value. They are simply small
patches of territory productive of
little revenue and of no commercial
significanse. Spain is not a commer
cial nation. It has never derived
any advantage nor could it derive
any from the relations of the' Caro
lines and Ladrones to the fcur routes
of ocean travel pointed out by Mr.
Robinson. It does not follow, how
ever, that Spain would give them up
except under compulsion or for a
money consideration largely in ex
cess of their precent value. But the
question from the American point of
view is not what Spain wants, but
what the future of the United States
requires and what the equities of the
case justify.
In this connection it must be
borne in mind that if we do not ac
quire Spain's islands in the Pacific
they mny be sold to Great Britain,
Germany, or some other power, and
thus become a menace to our peace
and our prosperity. Such on event
should be provided against aside
rom all questions of our policy of
annexing or not annexing the two
groups.
How to Freieac Croup.
We have two children who are subject
to attacks of croup. Whenever an attack
is coming on my wife gives them Cham
berlin'e Cough Remedy and it always
prevents the attack. It is a household
necessity in thislcountry, and no matter
what else we run out of, it would not do
to be without Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. More of it is sold here than
of all other cough medicines combined.

Says: "The fool saith, 'Put all thy
eggs in different baskets;' which means,
scatter your money and your attention ;
but the wise man saith: 'Put all your
eggs in one basket,, and watch the bas
ket.' "
We have op'y one basket, and we are
watching it in optics. Having made a
thorough study of the subject, graduat
ing from three of the beet colleges, we
are enabled to give you a scientific ex
amination. It doesn't matter whether
you buy a $10 glass or a II glass, or any
Blaeses at all, you get an examination,
and a thorough one at that, which alone
is worth your time to know yonr eyes.
I fit all cases of eyes, and am permanent
ly located in The Dalles. I am no
traveling fake, and best of all I guarantee
all work in optics to give you entire
satisfaction. Yours to serve,

Deafness Cannot be Cored f
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to enre deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.
