AS TO THE PHILIPPINES.
Some very honest and estim
able people are troubled by the
defeat of the Philippine bill.
Without referring at length to
the relative claims on this coun
try of the Pilipinos and the
farmers who are trying to add to
our resources and wealth, as well
as their own, by increasing the
beet suar aid rice crops 4 in their
miist'orof the farmers who
have already established the in
dusturies of tobacco and cane
sugar growing, or the number of
persons who support themselves
and their families by making
cigars, let us look at the position
of those who, like the New York
"Evening Post," for instance,
are the protagonists of the
mourners.
Recalling the events 01 eight
years ago, we will remember
on the 1st of May Admiral Dewey
destroyed the Spanish fleet in
Manila harbor. On the 13th of
that month two German war
ships had arrived, and within
about a month there were five in
all; a more powerful fleet than
Dewey's. Diederich, the Ger
man Admiral, remained in the
harbor until after August 4,
when the arrival of the Monterey
made him inferior in force to
our squadron, and although his
insults did not entirely cease,
they were no longer regarded
with apprehension, and the
greater part of his fleet sailed
away.
There can be no reasonable
doubt that Diederich was sent in
the hope that in the interim be
tween the discomforture of the
Spanish and our ability to trans
port enough men to occupy
Manila, Germany might sieze it.
If either Dewey ..had been a
grafter, or less brave and judi
cious, Diederich had had more
courage, the plan would have
succeeded. This statement, o
course, will be controverted, bu
at that time the anti-Imperialists
were unorganized. When he
question of the Ladrones came up
they were organized, and we had
to give all of them, excepting
Guam, up to Germany, which at
the same time secured the Caro
line Islands, which naturally
should have fallen to us.
It is not intended to claim that
all of the anti-Imperialists were
or are grafters. Some of them
doubtless imagined what the
newspapers they had for a long
time read and trusted, told
them they believed. On the
other hand, many of them be
long to what the "Saturday Re
vievv" calls the "pensioner
;class," incapable of contributing
anything of value to the world
progress and 'avaricious for the
money they cannot earn. The
cost of firing one 12-inch gun
would retain the service of these.
These people have posed as the
best friends of the Filipinos.
They have continuously upheld
Taft in his denunciations of
Americans, his failure to develop
highways, his sending all possi
ble shir and other repairing to
either Hong Kong or Japan, and
in his active efforts to put the
carrying trade in the hands of
foreigners. They seem to have
labored in every way to prevent
commercial confidence on the
part of Americans in tbe future
of the Philippines and to keep
the natives of those islands from
obtaining that steady and re
munerative employment in pro
ductive enterprises which is a
prerequisite to their becoming
pood citizens. I" is not asserted
that we are graf-ors, but they
are working to finish the job
Diederich could not finish, a job
for a country that keeps a
strong lobby at Washington and
seems to have established a near
ly absolute ownership of those
channels through which the best
thought of our country is formed.
This is not accomplished without
the aid of graf.
The, mourned ,for bill has not
noticeably encountered opposition
from either the tobacco or sugar
trusts. As it carried a fiat re
duction on all sugar product
duties, it would not have led to
refining a pound of sugar in the
Philippines for Eastern Asian
markets. People who think they
know the trade say that, like the
Cuban treaty, it would have
been of considerable use to the
Sugar Trust, which would have
captured about all of the reduc
tion. No one can doubt that it
would have retarded sugar and
rice raising in this country,
where the producer and con
sumer are close together, and
would have interfered with the
employments and profits of to
bacco growing and cigar making.
It would, apparently, have been
a delusion to the Filipinos and an
injury to us.
We might hare endured these
disadvantages with more com
placency if the bill had provided
for increasing our merchant ma
rine by confining the reduced duty
to goods brought in American
vessels. But no. The friends
of the Philippines are not built
that way. They are even more
unanimous in this desire to wipe
the American flag off from the
ocean than to hand the islands
over to Germany. Do honest and
estimable people ' admire this
company?
A LITTLE RASCAL.
"Kiss
the little rascal for me"
is wnat J. L. Kocketeiier is
what
credited to have said when he
learned of the birth of a grand
son recently. If one stretches
the old saw over one generation
and makes it read, ' Like grand
father, like son," it is more than
probable that John D.'s words
were prophetic when he referred
to his heir as a "little rascal."
Although at present the babe
by nature, - circucmstances and
conditions, is innocent, we must
not forget the law of heredity
and the force of environment.
If heredity and environment be
not over-rated we may safely as
sume that Rockefeller III will
some day nea Dig rascai or a
rascal on a large scale. That is,
provided nature kindly allows
the infant 'he allotted three
score and ten in which to operate
in an already crowded and sin-
touched world. If this time al
lowance be granted and Rocke
ttt r
in sees nt to carry on oper
ations on the general plan of his
grandsire, considering the fact
that he will have about $500,000,-
000 to start with, it is a safe
prediction that the future gene
ration will see some very stren
uous times.

There is to-day a crying need of a re
formation In the treatment of the body.
The basis of this reformation is to bo
found in the thesis of Dr. R. V. Pierce:
"Diseases which originate in the stomach
musi be cured through the stomach." ,
In the forty odd years of Dr. Pierce's
experience as chief -t
consulting physi- "tjr
cian to the Inva- nCilw'i
lids' Hotel and
Sureleal Institute
in Buffalo, N. Y.,
he has treated more
than half a million
doodIc. with a re
cord of ninety -eight
enrol in (vtrv htin.T',
dred. Tho theory
held by Dr. Pierce '-v':,."
tnat tne stomacn is
the chief breeding
place of disease, is
abundantly : borne
out by the success
of his treatment
which is addressed
primarily to the
stomach and other
organs of digestion
and nutrition."
No other medi
cine acts so power
fully and as perfectly
on the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition,
as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Diseoverv.
Men and women afflicted with shortness
of breath, heart disease, suffocation, diz
ziness, spots before the eyea, "liver pains."
and similar ailments have been promptly
and perfectly cured by the use of "Golden
Medical Discovery."
Miss Lavilla Bonlno. Curator Natural His
tory Society, of 408 Lewawee Street. West,
Lansing, Mich., writes: "I suffered with
chronic dyspepsia for nearly seven years,
and this caused me to srrow very thin and
pale, at the same time my Kood became poor
and I was so nervous and unstrung that I
was unfit to attend to my daily duties. Heart
was also affected and fluttered at the least
excitement. I spent lot of money doctor
ing and found no relief, -until I took Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cer
tainly Is a wonderful medicine. It toned up
my stomach and I began to have a splendid
appetite; bed no trouble with my digestion.
And I ber&n to pick up and get strong ; soon
new. rich blood flowed In my veins, and I
once more felt the beauty and Joy of life. I
haTe now enjoyed perfect health for a rear,
thanks to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dm

Revival Meetings.
After a week of epleadid meetings, tee
greatest day in the history of the 'opera
house was Sunday. .The morning
service of the'nnited churches was an in
spiration' that will not s03n.be forgotten
The churches were, as they have many a
time sung, "Onejia houeand doctrine
one in charity.'' The meeting for men in
the afternooi ;was the 'largest? jmeeting
lor men held in the ODeraJ'house and it
was a gatheringjof the"strong and morally
earnest men of the community. But
the greatest service of all was the service
in the evening; when seven hundred
people ea hered to hear$Rev. Miller sing
and preach the truth of God.
Sonday'sservices were at once a Biting
close of the past week's work and at the
same time they were rilled with promise
for the week they lopened. These are
great days for Corvallis; days oi
blessing and of spiritual benefit.
May they still continue. Daring this
week there will be meetings in the opera
house at 3 :00andt 7: 30 as heretofore.
The meetings at 3 o'clock will be con
ducive to the deepening of tha spirtnal
life. Mr. Miller will give special ad
dresses on "Personal Work," "Soul Win
ning" and the most vital themes touch
ing the life of the church. The evening
services will be supported by the chorns

faithfulness. Come prepared to bless
and be blessed, to give and to receive,
and above all to meet the heavenly
Father.

Republican Candidate for United States Senator.
CHAMPION OF STATEMENT ONE.
Jonathan Bourne, Jr., candidate before the Republican primaries for the nomi
nation of United States Senator in Congress, for the long term commencing March
4, 1907. was born in New Bedford, Mass., February 23, 1855; was a member of the
class of 1877 at Harvard University; came to Portland May 16, 1878; was a Republi
can member of the Oregon Legislature in the session of 1885 and the extra session
of 1886; was one of Oregon's delegate to the Republican National Convention of
1888 and Oregon's member ot the Republican National Committee from 1888 to 1892,
and a delegate to tlie Republican National Convention of 1892; and was elected as
a Mitchell Republican to the Oregon Legislature in 1896.
Mr. Bourne has been more prominently identified with the development of the
mineral resources of Oregon than any other, man in the state, having expended in
the last 20 years over $1,000,000 of his own money in the acquisition and develop
ment of Oregon mines. ,'..'
While Mr. Bourne has had bis residence and main office at Portland since
1878, he has had another office at New Bedford, Mats., and has carried on the busi
ness of his father's estate since 1389, which makes him familiar with many of the
large interests and leading men in the East. These qualifications, in conjunction
with his tremendous energy, originality, executive ability and experience in busi
ness and political affairs pre-eminently qualify him for making an aDle and influ
ential Senator for the state of Oregon.
Mr. Bourne has always favored extending the direct power of the people over
'heir government as iar 'as possible. He was one of the leading spirits in the
Initiative and Referendum movement from 1896 until it was approved by the
voters at the June election in 1902. In 191)4 he was a member of the executive
committee of the Direct Primary Nominations League, and holds the same position
with the People.'e Power League at this time. In all these movements he ha been
one of the few to guarantee the necessary expenses of preparing and proposing
their measures to the people.
He says that the choice of United States Senator should be by direct vote of
the people, and that the Legislature Bhould be compelled to elect the man the
Deoole select. To accomnlish this result, he is championing Statement No. 1 of the
Dtimary election law as the only method by which public opinion may be crystal
lized and made effective upon the Legislature..
In his petition for nomination he says: .
'If I am nominated and elected I will, daring my term of
office favor:
Republican Politics. .
Amending National Constitution for People's Election of
MB United States Senators. .
