that sort of indignation has a con
tagious tendency. The administra
tion cannot afford to be so arbitrary
in time of peace, hence it might be
politic to furlough the younger men
belonging to the Oregon contingent.

PRACTICAL TEST OF FRIENDSHIP
A crisis is at hand in the Anglo
American conteren2e. Our neigh
bors on the other side of the lakes
and the St. Lawrence might prefer
that we should 333' the conference be
tween the Canadian and the United
States commissioners; but, after all,
the Dominion of Canada is but a
British colony. It is the voice of
Britain, not of Canada that is to de
cide whether the proceedings of the
conference, that has adjourned from
Quebec to Washington, are to end in
further vanity and vexation of spirit
or in a series of mutual concessions.
In fact, we are about to learn whether
that figure of "sweetness and light,"
which of late has been projected so
frequently on the canvas of inter
national politics, really is the reflec
tion of a sturdy friend or is the mere
shadow ot a shade.
Ii the conference fails Britain
must not be allowed to lay the blame
of failure upon "Canadian obstinacy,"
for Britain is the master and owner
of Canada, which has a part in the
conference only by courtesj'. It is
for Britain, not for Canada, to " ex
press willingness or unwillingness to
relinquish the inequitable treaty that
denies us the right of a suitable war
law on the lakes, and that prohibits
the construction of gunboats or other
armea vessels in any laite port, even
though the ocean be their ultimate
destination. It is Britain, not Canada,
that is responsible for the ill treat
ment of the United States sailors and
fishermen in Canadian ports, and it is
Britain that is responsible for the do
ings of the Canadian seal poachers.
Tits a belief in the certainty of Brit
ish protection that encourages Canada
to be unjust and insolent in its -dealings
with the United States. Britain
has but to say the word and Canada
at once will proceed to be fair and
just to the United States. If Canada
alone were to be reckoned with, an !
accounting lor the wrongs done in
her name would be demanded and
enforced in short order.
Therefore the present conference
affords up opportunity to learn how
real or how false are the present pro
testations of British friendship.

Recently every week or two sad
news is received here of the death at
Manila ot one of Oregon's most
promising young men, who so readily
answered the president's call for
troops at the outbreak of the war
with Spain. Nine out of every ten
young men volunteering tbeir eer
Tices in Portland not only were am
bjtious and of good character, but
they relinquished good business poaU I
tions. They made these sacrifices to j
do actual battle, and not to be gar"
risoned in a malaria-stricken Oriental
town, to die like sheep or suffer per
petual impairment of health. The
class of Portland volunteers we refer
to mostly are under 25 years old,
with a;ood prospects in life were they
at home, an J it is the basest kind of
ingratitude on the part of the war de
partment not to furlough them dur
ing the reriod of comparative peace.
It would not be difficult to replace
them with more seasoned men, who'
could better endure the climatic
strain than those striplings. The un
necessary hardships to which these
and other youths of the better c'ass
bave been subjected by the war de
partment, may in the future make it
mote difficult for the country to get
the flower of the , nation to "rally
'round the flag" so enthusiastically as
it did last spring. The implied snub
Senator McBride received at the war
office early this week, when he asked
for the relief of the Oregon volun
teers in the Philippines, has created
some indignation here among the
friends of the young soldiers, and
