Congressman Ricluird P. llobdon Will Endeavor to Enlist Democrats In Ills WorM Conquering Xavy Scheme Drufi of Flank o He Of fered at Denver Convention. Congressman Richard P. Hobson, who lectured in Pendleton two months 2go, will endeavor to Introduce a plunk in the democratic platform at Denver next week, carrying out his pet theory of a big navy to preserve peace. The draft of the Hobson plank is as follows: ' In lnternatioal affairs we advocate the substitution of law based on right for war based on might, and to this end we will lead as fast as other na tions will follow In extending the sphere of effective arbitration, in de veloping an international court, an international congress and an Interna tional constabulary. Until an adequate International or ganizatlon becomes effective, we ad vocate a stable equilibrium upon the high seas, the joint heritage of all na Hons. To realize this high end the non-military nations should hold the balance of sea power, because naval power without military power could not be agressive. In the absence of stable equilibrium upon the oceans that wash our shores and particularly upon the Pacific, w must take urgent measures to protect our legitimate Interests and fulfill our bounden duties. Above all, the nation must be able to protect the in dividual states In the full and free ex ercise of their constitutional right of local self-government; the cornerston of liberty, wherever this sacred prin ciple is challenged by foreign pow er. We favor ample and efficient coa defence, but realize that without mobile army, they are subject to cap ture from landing parties attackln from the rear, so that in spite of coas defense our coast could be raided In either ocean long before a fleet could be transferred from the other ocean Desiring to avoid the necessity of maintaining a mobile "army, and to secure the blessings of peace through non-aggressive agencies, we favor progressive naval policy, which, with in a reasonable time will provide a navy capable of controlling the sea permanently in the waters that lead to our shores, In both oceans at the same time, a navy thus capable of perform ing its piiin duty of protecting our vast sea coast in both oceans, our great and ever-increasing volume of ocean-borne commerce, our growing interests In foreign markets; of pro tec-ting our distant possessions and maintaining the Monroe Doctrine; of guaranteeing the integrity of our free Institutions at home, and of executing effectively our Just foreign policies abroad. MAPS FOR AUTO TOURISTS. Government Department Will Show Topography of Country. The topographic map or atlaa which will be formed by the combined topo graphic sheets published by the sur vcy was referred to last winter by Secretary Garfield. In a report to con gress as the "motor map of the coun try." for it is now the principal source of all other maps. The sheets cover areas termed quadrangles, whose limits are defined by meridians and parallels, and nearly 1800 of them have already been completed. Some of the Btates have valued these maps so highly that they have defrayed half the cost of the surveys. The expense of surveying a quadrangle and en gravrng a sheet ranges from $3600 to 18000; but after the map has served Its scientific purpose to the govern ment extra copies can be purchased hundred, which Is simply the cost of paper and printing. COFFEE Five degrees gt excel lence: good; better, fine; finer; finest: all Schilling's Best Ytmi stock ratmt mmr sj roe 4m 1 The maps are so detailed and accu by anyone for 5 cents each, or $3 a rate that clever clay modelers have used them as bases for relief or phytri cal maps which were exact miniature reproductions of the regions com prised within the quadrangles, show ing every hill and valley in relative steepness, and the lakes, swamps, falls or rivers, etc., as well as all the Important works of man. Automobile tourists are beginning to find the topographic maps of the geological survey invaluable in lay ing out routes of pleasure travel. All public roads, as well as all important private roads, are shown on these maps, while the contour lines indicat ing the topography and showing the grades of the roads enable the auto moblllst to determine accurately the character of the country through which he Intends to travel. These maps are made primarily as bases for the geologic map of the United States which the geological survey Is constructing and the fact that they can be employed better than any other maps for nonsclen tific .purposes, such as automoblllng. attests their practical value, thoueh this is only one of a very great num- j her of uses to which they are put No maps, In fact, are so generally used as the survey s topographic maps. Commercial maps are basted on them, and a score of bureaus and departments of the government use them as bases for special routes of march or travel, for planning engln eering works and for many other Ilk.? public purposes.
