. AWAKE . Al .LAST,
While the opening-of the Columbia
river to free navigation from V ortiana
to The Dalles has demanded coneider
W local attention during the past
few weeks. It Is evident that.the real
significance of the completion of the
locks at the Cascades as anecung me
future industrial developement'ot this
.. city, is not fuDy appreciated. "
There is no metropolitan center In
the United States favored as, Portland
is by railroad and water connection
with a direct rich tributary section
that has failed to note a steady and
rapid increase in both population and
wealth. Portland has the advantage
of an absolutely level haul over a per-e.i-.i-
onnlnrwd line of railroad for
reaching the markets of the interior of
" Oreeon. Washington and Idaho,
hundreds of miles distant, and the
products of all this vas section first
reach tide-water at Portland over this
lovol atrntch of track. In ad
dition to the advantages of direct rail
connection, this city has the added ad
vantage of uninterrupted water com-
nnWtinn no the Columbia river as
far as The Dalles a stream that paral
lels the railroad line, and It has the
further promise of an open river clear
tn Twiatnn. which an effort to over
come the obstructions to uninterrupted
navigation at The Dalles will assure.
with the in ratea of ireieht which
water and rail competition will Insure,
Portland will always be without
rival for hnldlni? the trade of the In
land Empire. Oregonlan.
' It Is indeed surprising that the
alAAnv nlrl Orecronian - has at last
fj B -
awakened to the fact that river connec
tion with the Inland Empire would be
of anv benefit to Portland, or was In
fot dAairahlA. From the lack of in
terest it has manifested in the con
struction of the looks at the Cascades,
and the deaf ear it has turned to the
people of Eastern Oregon the past ten
years when they appealed to it to nas'
ten the work, we were lead to believe
that the Oregonlan and Portland were
averse to the opening of the river to
free navigation. - But since the
Oregonlan has evinced a willingness
to assist in the opening of the river
through to Lewlston, it may be for
eiven for its past Inactivity.
The Oregonlan truthfully says Port
land will be without a rival for the
trade of the Inland Empire when the
. river Is opened to Lewlston, but unless
she is a little more active in the future
than she has been in the past, she will
alio .the trade of a large section of
the country to slip away from her be
fore she knows It. The trade of the
Northern portion of Eastern Oregon
' will' always be tributary to Portland,
but unless-tho obstructions to navi
gation at Colilo are removed soon,
. some enterprising railroad company
'.'.".WW bund a brancn line irom tne
nqrthern -Pacific reaching into the
country lying north of the Columbia,,
between Klickitat and- Lewlston, and
will thus attract the trade of that
naturally productive section to the
sound.
That section Is rich in natural re
sources, it is blessed with a productive'
soil and fine climrte, and is destined
at some time to become one of the
greatest fruit and vegetable producing
. countries In the Northwest. - At pres
ent It Is shut out from market, hence
its only products for export, are live
stock and wool. Its-natural outlet is the
Columbia river, and if boats could run
. directly from the upper river to Port
land, that city would be its market,
If Portland expects to get the trade of
that section and also to retain the
trade of that portion of Eastern Oregon
beyond Sherman county, it mast dis
play a little energy, and aid in starting
the Improvements to the river above
The Dalles;- Bv the influence Port
land is able to wield upon the Oregon
delegation in congress, it can get this
work started at an early dai-e, and in
fact could have aided materially in
.. . hastening the completion of the locks
at the Cascades had It sought to do so.
This it neglected to do, though since
it is awakening to the fact that river
transportatln will be of benefit to its
commercial interests, some assistance
from Portland may be expected in
getting work commenced on the upper
river. :. -TAX
BURDENED CUBA.
A little volume entitled "The Island
of Cuba," recently issued in New York
under the joint authorship of Lieuten
ant Rowan, of the U. S. army, and
Prof. Ramsey, of the Columbia Uni
versity, throws much light upon the
- social, political and industrial condf
tion of Cuba,' and its statement of facts
arouses the sympathy of the civilized
' world in behalf of the patriots who are
heroically struggling to throw off
Spain's tyrannical yoke and establish
the independence of tho island. ? It is
shown that the government of Cuba ia
the most oppressive and intolerable
ever afflicted upon a Christian people,
and that Spain has forfeited all right
to longer prey upon the vitals of its
suffering citizens.
The estimated population of Cuba Is
1,723,000, less than one-fourth of whom
ve negroes, and of the patriots in
arms 40 per cent are white, 40 per cent
negro and 20 per cent of mixed blood
that is just half and half. The Maceo
brothers are not negroes, as has been
represented, but intelligent and well
educated mulattoes. Local govern
ment is a farce in Cuba, as electors are
. . ii a i . ,
every wnere controiiea oj we
authorities, and every legislative
measure is subject to the approval of
the governor-gefteral, who is clothed
with powers as despotic as those of the
Turkish- sultan. The censorship of
the press is complete, and private
criticism of the acts of the authorities
is 'dangerous. -
.! The Roman Catholic is the only re
ligion tolerated on the island. "There
are no Jewish or protestant places of
worship; and while a person who should
comply with all other requirements
might be permitted to remain on the
island, he would not be allowed to
promulgate doctrines at varience with
those of the established church." The
maintenance of the priesthood is made
a charge against the general revenues
of the island. The sum amounts to
nearly $400,000 annually, every item of
which Is apportioned by the Madrid
OTernment. The public schools are
under the control of the church, and
so little attention is paid to them that
the school attendance amounts to but
one In forty of .the Inhabitants, with
an aggiegate yearly cost of but $137,000.
Of the 91.211,450 indebtedness of the
Spanish government four years ago,
$175,000,000 was saddled specifically
upon Cuba, and the annual interest
upon that sum is a charge against the
revenues of the Island. There Is no
explanation of how or when this ex
clusively Cuban indebtedness was
created, and the belief Is that It
was arbitrarily apportioned to the is
land as a pretext. for. increased ex
actions.
In one form or another the 1.723.000
inhabitants of Cuba are taxed and
plundered by the Spanish government
and its island agents to the amount of
nearly $40,000,000 annually. This is
equivalent to about $24 per capita for
the general expense, irrespective of
local and municipal levies.
"'About 80 per cent of all the taxes
collected In Cuba Is for the home gov
ernment and represents no legitimate
governing expenses of the Island. Nor
Is this" alU" Millions of "dollars are
wrung from the people annually by
government officials, and their defal
cations are a common occurrence,
though not a single officer has been
convicted for malfesance in office.
If half the facts set forth in the
volume referred to are true, there
never was a rebellion tcore justifiable
than the one now in progress in Cuba.
The Cubans are simply fighting against
taxation that Is equivalent to confis
cation, and for the overthrow of a gov
ernment that is so decidedly corrupt as
to legalize robbery when committed
by an officer of the' crown. Justice is
certainly on the side of the Cubans,
and all civilized nations ought to lend
them assistance.
WAS IT IGNORANCE?
Ever since the election, the Oregon
lan and a few like journals have been
harping that it was only the ignorant
who cast their vote for Bryan, and the
intelligence of the nation voted for
McKinley. It la true that the greatest
illiteracy exists in tho South, and also
that a majority of the Southern states
voted for Bryan. It is alike true that
inube Northern and Eastern states,
Bryan received the largest vote in the
states where the percentage of illiter
acy is the least, hence it is safe to con
clude that only the illiterate and., un
educated voted for him is utterly false.
A bulletin issued by tho University
of Oregon, under date of Nov. 17, 1896,
shows the percentage of illiteracy in a
number of the Northern and Western
states to be as follows;
Nebraska. . 2.8 Nevada 4.2
Kansas .
.2.9 New Jersey.,.. 5 7
Oregon
Colorado
Connecticut . .
Illinois
Indiana ..
Iowa
.3 0 New York 5.4

.5 8 Rhode Island ..9.6
.3.5 South Dakota 4.1
.6.1 Utah 5 1
Massachusetts
Michigan.. ,...5.7
Minnesota 5,9
Wisconsin..... 6.6
A comparrt&on of these figures with
the election returns will show that in
the states where the vote was very '
elose the percentage of Illiteracy is I
low, while in the states where McKin- I
ley's vote was the heaviest. New York ;

opposite. '
GOOD ROADS.
While we are considering, various
and sundry methods for building up
The Dalles, such as manufacturing in
dustries, coal mines, etc, weare liable
to overlook one ot the most effective
agents for building up. andretaining
the trade of the surrounding country,
'And that agent 's nothing less than
good roads leading in every direction
from the city. .
. Considerable has been said and
written about a free road leading from
Dufur, across the Deschutes at the old
Maupin ferry.and on into Crook county,
In order to make It certain that the
products of that section shall continue
to find market at The Dalles, and the
road leading to the free bridge has
also been pretty thoroughly discussed,
but discussion has hot resulted in a
pry excellent road being built to that
point. In fact, it is said to be the very
opposite to a good road, and at present
is no road al all. Several hundred
dollars were spent on. the Rattlesnake-
grade, on (he Sherman county side of
the river, and a considerable amount
was expended on the grade leading
west from the bridge, but this grade ts
now in a deplorable condition, and
travel over it with heayy loads has
been suspended for the present.
Those, who have traveled over it
recently say unless It Is repaired dur
iogthe winter or early spring, Sher
man caunty farmers will be unable to
reach The Dalles.hence their trade will
go elsewhere. It is like "riding a free
horse to death" to ask Tbe Dalles mer
chants and warehouse owners to sub;
scribe more to put tbe road in con
dition, for they have already been
jnost liberal in their, donations for tbisi
purpose! however It Is to their interest
to retain the trade of Sherman county,
and the only way to accomplish this is
to give tbe farmers good roaue, hence
it seems that another donation of a few
hundred dollars lor roads will be nec
essary.
THERE WILL BE A COOLXESS.
There will be an increasing coolness
in republican circles toward President
elect McKinley as time passes. This
is inevitable, from the fact that tens
of thousands of expectant office-seekers
ill be disappointed. The civil' ser
vice law has taken a vast number of
federal positions out of tbe control of
a partisan president un' ess, as be
might do, he transgresses the spirit of
thelaw which no president can hence
forth affo-d to do, nor will desire to do.
The offices to be filled by the president
and bis chief advisors are few -and far
between in comparison with the im
mense army of hungry and sycophantic
applicants. In fact the president now
has.notwithstanding the great increase
in the number of official positions, less
offices at his direct disposal than at
any time since the war. Mr. Cleve
land put some 90,000 of them on the
civil service list "at one fell swoop"
only a few months ago. The result is
that where fifty men are beseeching or
demanding an office, and insisting that
they deserve and must haye "recog
nition," only one will be successful;
the other 49 will be disappointed, and
about 47 of them will be angry, and
wear that McKinley is a baseingrate.
INCONSISTENT WATTERSON.
Henry Watterson, the great editorial
writer of the Courier-Journal, in his
recent Paris interview, spoke exult
antly of the overthrow of the "elements
of disorder" which he declares have
been assailing the natlonr but he
shows his inconsistency by. In the ve ry
next breath', admitting that favoritism
in legislation and the selfishness of
the favored classes have causeJ the
discontent among the masses that he
declares is "treasonable." Here is
the way he delivered himself regard
ing the policy of protection:
" "The republican party has had in
its time great gooi fortune. It has
shown itself a clever opportunist. But
it cannot rest its cause upon the doc
trine of protection. Neither as a policy
nor a a theory, nor as a keyuc.te can
pro ted lion hold Its own or stand alone.
It Is at war with tho genius of Ameri
can Institutions. It should be no
longer a necessity, if it was ever truly
a necessity to the American manufac
turer. It is the father of paternalism
and the god-father of populism. It
sets examples to those who imagine
that wealth can be created by legisla-.
tioa. It imposes grevious burdens up
on the agricultural c',ass. During
periods of depression it serves both as
an instigation and as a pretext to the
uiscontented elements. It is the occa
sion of constantcorruption in congress.
The manufacturers themselves ought
to lead the movement to discard it." .
These expressions are indeed re
markable, coming from one who raised
his voleo for the re-enaitmcnt of a
high protective policy through the
election of Mr. McKinley, as did Mr.
Watterson. He says that protection
is the "father of paternalism," that it
imposes "grievous burdens" upon the
farming classed, that It "occasions cor
ruption," yet he denounces the farm
era who are discontented with the re
sults of thirty years of this system, and
during the recent campaign prated
about the "dangers of repudiation."
Even more, he speaks of the rule of
the people as mob rule, and at the
same time prates about "rescuing the
country from monarchirsm," thus ad
mitting that the present tendency of
this government under the rule of the
classes, tends toward monarchy. And
thus he goes on and compares these
times with those of 1800, when the
election of Jefferson thwarted the at
tempt of the classes to govern the
masses, and asserting "If Jefferson had
failed the federal party would have gone
on suppressing individual liberty and
consolidating the central power until
we should had a republic In name only."
Further on he asserts that the issue
we will have to meet in 1890, is wheth
er the masses or the classes shall gov
ern, though ho stigmatizes the efforts
of the masses in the recent eleation as
the "clamor of a mob." In concluding
be warns the East to profit by ex per- .

CALJFUityiA'S FAKE.
For a week past California has been
all agog over the ' report that a San
Franclscodentlst had invented, and
successfully launched in tbe etherial
atmosphere, an air ship. People in
various sections of the state saw tho
mysterious bird sailing around In the
heavens, lth wings outstretobed and
head-light gleaming. ; People who
heretofore had born good reputations
for veracity gave most graphic ac
counts of what they bad seen, and evi
dently there was something in the air,
in the imagination of those ordinary
truthful people, or in their stomachs,
to cause them to behold such remark
able visions. Most likely it was the
la'.ter. . California's' grapes - were
slightly over-ripe before they were
made into wine this year, and during
the excitement of the election, possi
bjy Callfornians indulged too freely in
their boasted product, causing their
minds to be muddled and their vision
to be inacurate.
Tbe fake, however, was working
nicely, and possibly would ' have re
sulted In California having successfully
solved the problem of navigating the
air, at least in the minds of some, bad
it not been for Alexander D. McEvoy,
of the American and International
Detective Agency. He was somewhat
skeptical, and sat himself about to in
vestigate whence came those strange
lights in the heavens, and that flying
machine so many had seen. The Ex
aminer of the 24th gives this account
of tbe result of his investigations.
'By quiet investigation McEvoy
learned that Blair Park, in the north
ern suburbs of Oakland, is the place
of operation of two men who have been
hoaxiner the people of Oakland and
this city. . He stationed himself In the
park and watched for what he might
see. ' At exactly twenty-eight minutes
after 10 o'clock he saw rising from In
spiration point, a high shelf on tbe
Piedmont hills, about five hundred
yards from his place of observation, an
object kltesbaped- about ten feet i
length, with wheels like little wind
mills. On tbe sides of the structure
were lights, and from it hung a Japan
ese lantern, red in color and about one
foot In diameter. It moved slowly be
fore tbe wind. He plainly saw two
men on the point and accosted them
as they descended the path. They
told bfm that they were sending up ob
jects such as be bad seen-to mystify the
people and to give them material for
newspaper articles."
It is probably unfortunate that Mr.
McEvoy has thus exposed the fraud,
for people enjoy sensation and like to
be bilked. None are more susceptible
than we Americans, and it is too bad
we should have thus been deprived of
j tbe pleasure we were getting from
reading accounts of- the aerial flights
' of that mysterious bird. And It is too
bad for California. She was getting a
lot of free advertising from possessing
the only successful and real air ship in
the world, and was gaining renown
abroad that was maki.ig other places
greed with envy. But all fakes must
fall, and this one went down with a
thud.
ED1WR1AL NOTES. . .
; An orator who addressed a love-feast
given by a republican club in New
York the other night Is quoted as
having said that "Mark Hanna had
cne hand on God Almighty and tbe
other on McKinley, and you can't beat
the corabiuation." Aside from the
blasphemy of the-expression, a great
many American citizens firmly believe
that Mark Hanna ivas in league with
the other fellow. . .. -.
Speculation is rife as to whether or
not the Pacific coast shall be recog
nized when McKinley's cabinet is
formed If it is both Serator Mitchell
and Senator Dolph wili get thtir hats
off ready to catch the plum.
The big banquet to Mr. Hirsch is
over, but Senator Mitchell did not In
his speech on that occasion answer the
question propounded to him by the
Oregoniau correspondents as to how
he would vote on the silver question
in case of his re election to the senate.
General Weyler has slipped back to
bis comfortable quarters in Havanut
and intimates that be will not chase
the insurgents any mora this year.
This will give the Cubans a show to
rearrange their forces, and start on
another vigorous campaign' in the
spring.
Some of the -hard-hearted prophets
are now declaring that there will be
no ludy clerks employed at the next
session of the legislature. If t heir pre
dictions are true, we may expect to
hear of a number of the b-gislators re
signing. With no lady clerks the leg
islatlve balls would bare little attrac
tions to some, and what would they
want to assemble tbero for?
Senator Mitchell and ex-Senator
Dolph have been interviewed by the
Oregonian, and ech declares he is not
a Candidate for a position jn President
McKlnley's cabinet. This is to be re
gretted, since the West should be re
presented in the cabinet. The secre
tary of the Interior ought to be chesen
from some state west of the Rocky
Mountains, and either Dolph or
Mitchell would be a good selection for
that position.

Predictions sometimes miscarry, es
pecially predictions made just prior to
an election. Before the election we
were told that foreign capital would

cast its vote for Bryan or that elected
a populist legislature. Washington
did both, and still foreign capital is

A number of clerks in the treasury
department have been summarily dis
charged because they violated tbe
rules of tbe department by taking an

dent or Mr. Carlisle can justify sucn
dismissals is not explained. If it was
a violation of the rules of the depart

in tbe campaign for free coinage, it
seems that it should also have bjen a

Havana, Nov. 2-1. The Competitor
prisoners have been tried by court

spite of Consul-General Lee's official

The exceptions taken by the prisoners
were overruled by tho naval courts.
General Lee's note was pigeonholed,
and in defiance of Secretary Oil ey's
intimation of disapproval, the Com

court, sitting within the walls of a
Spanish fortress, where, according to
Captain-General Weyler's orders, the
representative of the United States
consulate may not 'enter.

Two Thousand of His Men Killed la the
Jtulil Hills. . '
CBICA99. Nov, 2q. The Tribune's
special from Jacksonville, Fla., says:
Colonel Jose Ileves, aid-de-camp of
General Maceo, wounded and en route
to New York for medical treatment,
and with dispatches to the. junta,
passed through here yesterday. He
says the fighting in the Rubi hills of,
Pinar del Rio was the most sanguinary
brittle of the war. He claims 2000 of
Weyler's men were killed in two days,
', and twice as many wounded. '
j Weyler went to the field with 35,000
mep In three oqlums, one of 15,000 un

der himself; oneof IS.OQOunderGeneral
Ecbagfce, and;a third of 5000 under
General Munbz, They fa.in.l Maceo
entrenched In a crescent-shaped range
of tills. - When at the foot of the hills
! the Spaniards were met with a wither
: ing firo that cut gaps in ' their ranks.
: Maoeo's men shot from behind rocks
and trees, and gradually gave way be-
' fore the Spaniards, who, encouraged
by what they thought to be a victory,
f pursued them: :
Suddenly a deafening explosion rent
, the air, and a scene followed somewhat
like lhe mine horror at Petersburg
j during the civil war. Horses and men
j were blown high in the air and fell to
tne eartn ceaa ana maogirq. ine
dynamite mine was touched off by John
I Linn, formerly of this city, who is
Maceo's electrician. Maceo then
loosened his dynamito guns, prepared
by Linn, and more havoc was wrought.
ln tne mine explosion, coionei Ketes
says, Weyler lost 700 men killed, and
500 more in charging, besides 1600
wounded.
Ifext day, M.iceo. knowing of the re?
serve forqe under Weyler, retreated to
even a stronger position. Then he was
attacked by the column under Echague,
who was roundly thrashed and driven
from the Held, losing 800 men killed,
besides 1300 wounded. ,
Next day Maceo retreated ' again,
maneuvering all the while to entrap
Weyler into a 'field that bad been
honeycombed with dynamite. Mean
while, however, Qoneral Wevler, hear
ing that there was danger of . an up
rising in Havana, because of his fail
ure to crush Maseo, hastened baok to

Ilnsbasd I oog Mourned as Dead Suddenly
: Returns.
La Grange, led., Nov. 26. A
strange story has developed near Cen
ter, a little settlement lu Steuben
county, by the. reuniting of husband
and wife after .40.. years' separation.
William Weiuner disappeared from
St. Joseph county, Mich., then bis
home, in 1856.' Bis wife did not give
up hope of his return until ; 1864, when
a letter alleged to have been written
by her huxband on' his dying b d,
solved tho mystery:.-' The letter came
from Los Angelesj'. Cal., ' where Mrs.
Weidner believed ber husband died.
Mrs. Weidner donned widow's weeds
and mourned her, husband as dead.
She subsequently married John -Tom-kins,
and to this union six children
were born. Torakins died o 1SS0.
Yesterday Weidner returned to find
his family, little ' believing tbat bis
wife was alive. He found in gray
beaded Mrs. Tomkins, the bride of his
youth, and as husband and wife they
will live together again. Weidner
went to the coa?t'to speculate, add sev
eral fortunate business ventures have
given him posesslon. of a comfortable
fortune. .
The theory is advanced that the let
ters sent Mrs. Weidner was part of a
conspiracy to murder Weidner at the
time, as he was the. ownnr of several
valuable mininz claims.

CHICAGO,' Nov. .26. Wheat opened
with a whoop yesterday the first trans

from B3i to 64, as compared with Tues
day's close of 811 to 82. There was
a stock of bull sentiment carried over

creased by a phenomenal advance in
Liverpool. It came with a jump of
from 3d to 31d jjer cental, o.an equive
lent of about 4 cents, per bui-hel over
tbe price it closed at Tuesday. The
excitement cooled off very suddenly,
however. In fast but one or two
trades were made at the opening
figures. The jump at Liverpool was
qualified by the statement that it was
caused purely oy speculative buying
and active lini lation soon started.
The outside markets &Uo sent selling
orders and the pr'm gradually declined

Gcthkie.'O. r., Nov. 24 A disas
trous prairie fire n wept over the Semi

were burned to death by the raging

Wheat is np now, and the indica
tions at present, judging from the re
port of the condition of crops through
out the world and tbe visible supply
of wheat on hand, are that prices will
remain up for at lea-it a year. This
outlook should encourage farmers to
sow a large acreage -to wheat next
spring. With the assurance of low
freight rates together with an almost
certainty of high prices, the prospect
for tbe Wasco and Klickitat farmers
is brighter today than for many years
past.

Japnn lias a proplici in England who
can scarcely contain himself for joy
er ov her victory; who predicts vast
things for her, p.nd who ia happy at her
pro.;-Lcet despite the fact that a part of
iiis prediction - that through her gaiu
Cn;rland will lo:;e heavily and the
L-niicJ States will be severely stricken
Yet, says tho New York Advertiser, lit
is an Ha jlishman bora, aui has been
knighted by tlic quaoh; an Englishman
of cvar-bubbliiij patriotism. Yet be
loves America, tool: an American wife,
and i lovoJ and respDcted by Ameri
cans. Ho is Sir Edwin Arnold, cele
brated as tho author of "The Light of
Asia" and many other wonderful books,
and, lately, by his shall we call it
Japomania? Kir EJvin Arnold, who
is no less a politician than a poet,
unows more about the Japan China war
than any other Englishman. Here is
part cf what he said:
: .'"Japan i3 one of my most enthusias
ts loves. I have been t'lero twi ;e and
both, visits were; Ion f and pleasant. If
I livo I shall go ngaiu. Japan's victory
is tho Greatest progress that the world
has seen t.ia.'e Ihu American eolouies
won their independence. For un
counted centuries an. impassablo
boundary evicted between tho west and
the cast. England brolec it down so
that Iudia was open; America, through
Perry, broke it down so that Japan was
open. No-v Japan ha3 broken it down
so that China greatest conquest of
tiicm all is open.
"I do not 'mean by that that China
will now or, perhaps, ever enter into
the column of progressive nations.
Japan will not go far enough in her
viptory to uproot the present Chinese
government a frovcrnment that has
been handed down with few changes
i since before the time of Christ. Japan
knows too much for that. She under
stands the people with whom she has
to deal. She realizes that they have
been infoctcd wiLh r. vini3 of stupidity
and barbaria conservatism from which
it is scarcely reasonable to hope to ever
free them. Confucius was the man
who killed China. His philosophy of
fatalism is the sleeping draught from
whose effects she may never wake.
China is like the grub chosen by the
iguna bird for her young. This bird
.njects a subtle poison into the worm
she selects for her family's food, which
paralyzes it, and without killing it
makes it like a dead tiling. Confucius
was China's iguna bird, lie introduced
Into her veins a poison which ha3 made
ber comatose forlnany, many centuries.
It is, in one sense, a dead thing which
Japan has conquered, nad it is doubtful
if it will ever come to normal life. Cut
it is a valuable- corpse.
But Japan will be from now on the
great civilizing, regulating, dominating
power of Asia, uithout disrupting
China, she will let tho whole world
reap the result of her resources. She
will throw down tho barriers which
have closed her vast possessions to
trade and commerce. Sho will intro- :
duce such modern methods as arc pos- -siblc
into the interior, which has been ;
absolutely stationary for centuries, '
The day when lucifer matcb.es and mills :
and railroads and other results of oivil-
ization can bo shut out of one of the ;
richest and broadest countric s in the ;
World ended with tho decisive battle of
the Japan-China war.
''The victory of Japan over China
jnay well make certain English and
American industries tremble for their .
future. It mcan3 that from now on '
j cheap" labo
labor which is incredibly . ';
cheap to us--will be thrown into com-
petition, with high-priced labor. .Tariff,
duties will not protect us or you. - No
nation could protect itself by tariff
against the attack which Japan can
and will make in the near future, any
more than it could protect itself by
guns and forts against an invasion of
the influenza epidemic. .
' 'Let your cotton growers look to
their positions. Even England's Indian
cotton will be hard pressed, and if the
growers arc in danger then the manu
facturers arc in greater danger, The.
capacity of the Japancso and the Chi- !
licao for incrcdibio detail in their work j
makes for them the most perfect work- ;
men in the world, as they are tho most I
rapid. And when one realizes that this
ability and capacity can bo obtained
there ior an average of eight cents a
day,- against from a dollar and a half
upwards ia America and four shillings
upward in England, it is not hard to
sec. there is reason in what I say. I be

One of the strangest stories about a
abandoned ship comes from tho Indiai
ocean. In 1S"23 tae British corvett
Lizard was cruising o2 Ceylon. A shir
came in bight with all sail set, anc
making good speed through the water
iuc oiiieers too t a long look, ana ont
said: "There is something wrong
about that vessel. IJcr crojack is loos
and llapping, ami there is no man at
U10 wheel. Wc had better run down
'her."
This was -done,, says the New York
V orid, and when near it was seen that
the ship had no crew, as there was nc
answer to the hail.' When boarded
there were no marks' of trouble until,
on raising a sail that was spread over
the main hatch, the body of a man wat
found, He had been ironed to the
look-bars of the batch cover, and had
apparently been dead a week.
On going into the' cabin the body oi
an elderly man was found. He had
been stabbed to death. On examining
the log-book it was on record that the
ship was Spanish, from the Philippines,
and named El Frev Antonio: but.
strangely, the last entry was six weeks
past, and spoke of abandoniug the ship
at a point a thousand miles away,
bound for Malaga, Spain. She was left
on the road to China. A pitcher of
water on the table war, intact. Coulo
the vessel have come this long journey
without meeting a storm, and how had
the dead men got li-re? They had not
been dead six weeks, and both were
Lascars.
The Frry Antonio was kcn into
Madras, th" Spanish government noti-
fu-d, and their answer only made the
mj-slcry deeper. The ship had 6ailed
from Celebes more than a year before,
vit'u six Ilaman Catholic- priests as
pas..:ngeis, Donna lor Spain, and had
no .'.sars among her erew. And this
vas all. And from jhat far away

Jack nw took oft his blue flannel
jumper ki" overall trousers, fixed them
art;ticai!y together and stuffed them
out with the coarse grass growing every
where around us. Theu he held the

aumniy beyond the edge of a bowlder
in such a way as to look as if the bulge

Lippincott's Magazine.
The old, old ruse succeeded admir
ably, for instantly there came from the
cover, about thirty yards away, a hurt

Tom and I had fired our decoy shots a

the surviving warriors darted off to
