(HE CORMUS GAZETTE Tuesdays and Fridays, Fer President :. THEODORE ROOSEVELT, of New York. For Vice President CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS, of Indiana. Presidential Electors for Oregon J. N. HART, of Polk. JAS. A. FEE, of Umatilla. GRANT DIMMICK. of Clackamas. A- C. HOUGH, of Josephime. Editorial Comment. Japan has delivered an ultima tum to China, asking that she immediately enforce her neutral ity in the case of the Russian cruiser skoid and the torpepo boat destroyer Grozovoi, now seeking shelter at Shanghai. International law permits a war vessel to find shelter in a neutral port lor 24 hours, at which time it must return to tbe high seas. Japan is well within her rights in the premise, and if the Chinese government does not compel the withdrawal then Japan will compel the vessels ilhr to leave the port or dis mantle. Japan proposes to com pel China to recognize her as the dominant power in the Far East. We admire the little fellow's pluck. From Wednesday's Oregonian we clip the following dispatch dated atTokio, August 15, which tells its own story: Vice-Admiral Kamimura res cued 600 of the crew of the Rus sian cruiser Rurik, sunk by his squadion off Tsu Island yester day. The Japanese generally are comparing the treatment ac corded the crew of the Rurik to that accorded by the Vladivostok squadron to those on board the transport Hitachi, which the squadron sank June 15 during its first raid. A prominent official said to the Associated Press to day: "Japan has avenged the Hitachi. Admiral Kamimura jcscued and succored those who aided in sinking the Hitachi and who sailed away from hun dreds of drowning victims. We offer their living for our dead." And Russia has always been das-iif-ed as a Christian nation; the Japanese have been set down as heathen. o The New York Sun, which for years has been the strongest Dem-cc-aiic sheet in New York city, has tlii i ecr declared for Roose veit and Fairbanks. In the course of a long editorial, defin ing its position on this subject, it says: "We have more faith au the distinct promises of the Chicago platform, not ignoring tthe many serious defects of that document, than we have in the miserable hell-broth of dishwater uind dynamite concocted at St. X,ouis a month ago by a party .afraid to renounce its criminal ibllies, and tasted yesterday at XCsoptu by a respectable candi date who declares with gusto that its flavor is admirable." The Sun is only one of many papers, lormerly Democratic, tnat Iiave been compelled to desert the trust party and come over to the party of protection and pros perity. Prunes! Prunes! Prunes! About 200,000 pounds of prunes, Italian and French, are lieing processed and packed at the IJenton County Prune com pany's packing plant in this city. The busy hum of voices and clat ter of machinery and boxes in dicates that something is doing. And something is doing for 20 ladies are busy packing while as many men are engaged about the processor. The prunes are bright and glossy as they come through the operation and are put up in boxes lined with tissue paper delicately stamped and calculated to beguile the wily Eastern con sumer. Each box contains 25 pounds and no pains are spared to make them attractive and sala ble. Most of them go to New York buyers. There will be about 100,000 pounds of Italians, abost as many French with a few 50s and 60s. CORRESPONDENTS' CORNER. Philomath. W.

Sheriff Ross rassed throuea the city the early part of this week on his way to Portland hav ing m charge the children ot J. W. Flower, of Newport, to place them in the care of the Boys' and Girls' Aid society. The children were taken in charge by the county court of Lin coln county because they were not receiving the care they should have, and their commitment to the society was the result. Mr. Flower formerly resided in Al bany, leaving there some years ago tor Newport Recently a couple ot his children were taken away from him and sent to Port land, and now the balance, two little bovs and a girl, are placed in the same institution. The children were motherless and re ceived so little care that the peo ple of Newport demanded tnar, thev be cared for.
