THE CONGRESS OF TIONS.
So far as the full representation
of the vaiious American nations is
concerned, it is probable that the
international conference which is
to be held in Washington in Octo
ber will be a success. Nearly
every country of Central and South
. America has signified its accept
ance of the invitation issued by
the United States and will send
delegates to the congress.
The next question is, What is
expected to be accomplished by
this international congress, and
what will be the methods employed
to accomplish results, whatever
they may be? The theory of an
international conference of Ameri
can nations is a very pretty one,
and it might be thought to possess
many useful and desirable features
i but it must be tried by the test of
I practicability, and in that aspect
of the case it will be found much
easier to toint out what the con
, ;ress will not be able to accomplish
than to put the finger upon speci
fic matters which will be brought
1 about for the common good.
In the first place the United
States can consent to nothing in
the nature of an alliance offensive
and defensive with any or all of
the other nations of America. We
with our 65,000,000 people, and
with our position assured as one of
the great powers of the earth, can
' not afford to bind ourselves to take
up the troubles of nations which
are insignificant as compared with
ourselves; nations which differ
from us in disposition, tempera
ment, theories of government and
every other national characteristic.
We cannot constitute ourselves a
drv nurse for every nation in the
Western hemisphere, even if they
should desire it. which is not rroh-
.hie. '

One good result will flow from 1 aspeisiuus upon ujipuiuiei aim
i . .f Anin I appointee referred to? .Vould it
The order of Patrons of II us
bandry is the bulwark and hope of
the farming class of our land, for it
is the only association that has
stood the test of time and trial in
the interests of the producers of
the country. Other societies have
bees started, such as farmers clubs,
and have beeu eminently useful, in
proportion t their strength and
continuance, but their influence
and age and strength have been
merely local and transitory in
comparison with the Grange.
Seeing, realizing, and conscious
ly rejoicing in these facts, we are
pained to note.the allusion of the
State Grange Master in his pub
lished annual report, which is al
ready in print in the Pacific Rural
Press and was publicly delivered
in the state house in Salem yester
day, in reference to the appoint
ment of Ex-Go v. Rusk of Wiscon
sin to the the chairof the depart
ment of agriculture. He says :
"Patrons, you have all labored
faithfully for many years to place
the secretary of agriculture in the
president's cabinet. We were all
much rejoiced when this became a
law of our land, little suspecting
that we had woven a coil whereby
the shackles of political bondage
couiu De lasneu the tighter upon
our lascerated industry. Our ag
riculturalists all over the United
States memorialized and prayed
our chief executive that he would
fill this office with one of our rep
resentative farmers, but he has
treated our appeals with contempt
and has, if I am rightly informed,
piaceu mat department, so im
portant to the success of our indus
try, in charge of a politician and
lawyer; whatever may have been
rresiueni narrison s motive in
making this appointment, it is an
outrage upon the people he will not
soon outlive."
In Appleton's biographical works
we find this reference to Mr. Rusk :
He was born in Morgan county,
Ohio, on June 17, 18:50, and divided
his time between farm-work and
the acquisition of a common school
education tin ne attained ins ma
j rity, and in removed to Wis
consin and engaged in agriculture.

One of the features of the occasien will be a grand public dinner on Saturday afternoon under the auspicesjof the

is dependent largely upon the increased settlement of the Willamette, Umpqua and Rogue River Valleys, and that

one which is apparent ai. this time,
and under existing conditions.
The free interchange of opinions
at the conference may result in
breaking down much of the
jealousy which is felt by the other
nations ot America toward the
United States, and the sequel may
be more intimate commercial re
lations than at present exist.
Many of the Central and South
American countries do the greatest
part of their trading with Europe,
and one of the reasons for this in a I
feeling of hostility to the United ; Y
States, generated by jealousy of
our superiority. If we can con
vince these countries that manifest
destiny is only a stump-speaker's
catchword, and that we have no
designs upon their liberties, we
may secure a large part of the
trade which now goes elsewhere.
' Cut even in that event we can
not secure the trade without pro
viding the necessary appliances in
the way of facilities for transporta
tion. So long as goods for Rio
Janeiro have to go from New
to Hamburg and thence to Rio, we
need not expect to control that
trade. If we can get the South
American countries into the humor
of buying from u.s, we must make
it possible for them to receive their
purchases direct, and that can be
done onlv by extending govern
ment aid to American steamship
lines, either directly or indirectly.
The maxim that the trade follows
the flag is one of universal applica
tion, and we may make as many
prettv speeches as we like and
hold an international conference
every year, and t-till we cannot
secure the trade of South America
until we can compete on equal
terms with the heavily subsidized
not be mnch better to accept the ;
appointment, which is really ai
good one, cheerfully and give it '
support until at least Gov. Rusk
has had time and opportunity to
prove his fitness or unfitness for
