Hawaii Has Been Accepted and

Canada Enforces Another Arbitrary Meas

New York. July 30. A dispatch
to
the Herald from Hsvana fcays': '
Havana's outposts have been again
attacked by a large body of rebels, who
before the Spanish troops could be
gathered to resist had swept through
the suburbs, carrying all before them
They used, it is believed, rapid-firiDg
g-uns and a large quantity of dynamite.
The attack was made late last night.
Today there is an inclination among1
the Spanish officials in Havana to deny
the fact that the rebels had evaded the
forts and swept into Havana limits.
The facts, however, remain and the
pith left by the rebels through the
suburbs southeast of the city may be
plainly traced.
At the first sound of firing last night
the Spanish soldiers in the city and
suburbs sprang to arms. They pro'
ceeded hurriedly to the southeastern
part of the city from where the rattle
of musketry followed by the boom of
heavv guns or dynamite could be
heard plainly all over Havana. Then
the sound of firing increased, and final
ly after a few hours, died away, show
ing that tne rebels naa reiirea
Several wounded Spanish soldiers were
brouL'htto Havana and removed to
hospitals after the encampment, and
several were killed. The reticence of
Spanish officials prevents any knowl
edere of the result of the attack be
coming general. It is a fact, however,
that great damage was done by the in
surgents on their bold raid and that a
considerable quantity of dynamite was
used.
There was great excitement in
Havana during the rebel attack. Hun
dreds, aroused by the heavy firing,
poured into the streets and the word
passed along, "The rebels have at
tacked the citv." created almost a
papic in some quarters. There is still
much excitement here, due largely to
the refusal of the officials to give out
nformation.
Captain-General Weyler has left
Havana for MataDzas, and the belief
is expressed that the knowledge by
the insurgents of this intention on his
part led to the attack.
Some tojr ten, some for twenty and
some for thirty years have suffered

Witt's Witch Hazel Salve, the great

ACCEPTED BY JAPAN.
Hawaii's Arbitration Proposition at Last
Finds Favor With the Japs.
Washington, July 30. The Japan
ese government has accepted the offer
by Hawaii to arbitrate the dispute be
tween the two countries. The state
department has been informed of the
offer and its acceptance. 'J he subjects
of the arbiti ation will include not only
the difficulty over the landing of Jap
anese immigrants, but also will include
other disagreements between th two
countries, the most important of which
is the Sake tax imposed upon a Japan
ese iiquor largely imported and con
sumed by the Japanese in Hawaii.
When officials of the state depart
ment were informed of the offer and
acceptance of arbitration the secretary
of the Japanese legation here was in
formed that until the annexation
treaty was concluded the United States
would not assume . authority in the
matter and that tb.tv present dispute
must be considered as between Japan
and Hawaii, The secretary in reply
slid he was glad to learn such was the
position of the United States, as it
would permit Japan sending two or
three warships to Hawaii pending final
action on the arbitration treaty. This
interpretation of the situation rather
surprised the state department offi
cials, who answered that the United
States would consider in a different
light an agreement of arbitration and
the sending of warships, and intima
ted that non-interference by the United
States in one case could not he con
strued as passive acceptance of the
latter position,

Ibis lair will bd unique in many
particulars, and prove equally interest
ing and instructive to citizens of Port
land and visitors from abroad. One
feature alone for which the association
is to be commended is found in the
elimination of admission fees. The
intent and purpose of the exhibition is
to prove, by actual demonstration, that
the motto of the state seal of Oregon
'Alis volat propriis" she flies with
ner own wings is not merely a senti
ment, but a truth. To accomplish this,
the Manufacturers' Association pn
poses to throw it9 doors wide open,
without money and without price, that
all may see for themselves the extent
of Oregon's home industries, and learn
to appreciate the necessity of support
ing them; not only to keep Oregon
money in Oregon, but also to furnish
lucrative labor to'the state sown peo
ple.
It is not generally known that there
are over 10,000 employes, receiving an
nually oyer $7,000,000 in wages, now
engaged in the manufacturing con
cerns of Multnomah county alone.
This number could easily be doubled
and a corresponding increase in capital
employed at home be secured, if home
industries were patronized to the full
limit and extent of their productive
capacity. The United States govern
ment shows its recognition of our
ability, as witness the torpedo-boats
and lightships now under construction
on the Willamette; surely, self-apprecia
tion as well as self-advantage should
teach the people of Oregon to follow
suit. It is hoped the manufacturers'
fair will lead to such a consummation.

All OutrKs Must Fay Duty.
Seastle, Wash., July 30. There
now remains no doubt of the intention
of the Canadian government anent
collection of duties on American goods
en route to the Clondyke. For a time
it was believed no duty would be im
posed on individual miners' outfits,
but only on stocks taken into the Coun
try for merchandising purposes. To
day the following dispatch was received
from Victoria which has stirred up
ill-feeling in Seattle:
'Victoria. B. C. July 29. E. E.
Ling, Secretary Chamber of Com
merce. Seattle, Wash.: Duties will be
collected on miners' outfits in every
individual case."

Vancouver, B. C, Aug. 2. The
steamship Miowera, from Sydney,
brings information that news of still
another massacre has been received at
Sydney. Not long ago a number of
Australia's army of unemployed were
attracted by stories of fabulous gold
panning at Papua and other interior
New Guinea points. Their ranks have
been terribly thinned by murder, star
vation and fatal swamp fevers. To
make matters worse, every native who
helped a white was marked for the
tomahawk.
The remnant of these white pioneers
went to Vanapa for a final effort to
make their fortunes. Their stores
gave out and for months they lived oa
damper" and tea. NaMves in the
vicinity claimed to be ill-treated by
the government in the way of scant
stores, and decided to teach the gov
ernment a lesson by killing all the
whites within reach. The whites
were raided at night and put to death
with tomahawks, being easy victims.
After long sufferiug they were weak
and emaciated, and could not defend
themselves.
Many massacres bad occurred in the
same place previously, but the govern
ment has never attempted to punish
the murderers.
.Later news conhrms tne massacre
which occurred 83 miles from Port
Moresby. The entire settlement of
natives and whites had their htads
split open by a large band of savages
The government has sent a large body
of military police to surround the
natives and shoot if necessary. Whole'
sale arrests will ba made. The natives
will be brought back manacled in the
hold of a steamer chartered for the
purpose.

DAI PASSED QUIETLY.
So Set tons Trouble Occurred at DeArmlt'a
' Mines.
Pittsburg, July 31. Anxiety, ex
pectation and suspense, which were
the conditions in the coal-mining sit
uation about De Armitt's mines today,
have given place to peace and quiet
ness tonight. After running counter
to deputy sheriffs several times during
the day, the strikers withdrew this
evening, ana are now in the camps
asleep. As the miners will not work
tomorrow, the strikers will take a rest,
and no trouble is expected before
Monday night. The week closed with
the miner's officials satisfied that they
had made a marked impression upon
the diggers of the New York & Cleve
land Gas & . .Coal Company, who, it
seems, are wavering as to their pur
pose. All the men are out at Sandy creek,
and but few were at work at Turtle
creek today. Plum creek was in full
operation, and the entire force of the
strikers was centered at that point,
but without succesi.
This afternoon President Dolan took
20 strikers from the camp and inarched
to P'um creek, where a meeting was
organized. Speeches were made by
President Dolun, and the men were
cautioned to keep within the law.
While the meeting was in progress,
the sheriff, with an unarmed force of
deputies, appeared. Sheriff Lowrey
read the injunction procured by De
Armltt, and ordered the strikers to
disperse. President Dolan replied
that they were on pualic ground, and
produced a certificate showing the
place to be a public highway. Sheriff
Lowrey again ordered them to dis
perse, and, after a short parley, the
meeting was closed and the strikers
marched back to camp.
DAWSON CITY TO BE LIGHTED.
Seattle's Mayor Will Take an Electric
Plant to the Northern Mines.
San Francisco,, Aug. 2. W. D.
Wood, mayor of Seattle, has purchased
a small electric plant with which he
purposes lighting the city of Dawson
with light during the winter months.
Mr. Wood has contemplated this for
some time, but not until now did he
complete his arrangements. He is as
sured by competent electricians that
his plan is perfectly feasible, and that
the plant he has bought for the com
p.iny he represents is of a pattern that
has given good results in other places.
When the barges taken ud by the
Humboldt arrive at Dawson the one
propelled by steam power will be an
chored as near the shore as possible,
immediately opposite the city and al
lowed to freeze up in the ice that will
take the place of the water soon after
their arrival. The electric plant will
then be placed on board the barge and
the Dawson City Eleotrio Lighting Co.
will be ready to illuminate the dark
ness of the long Artio winter.

NENATOK3 TO VISIT HAWAII.
Quay and Morgan Will Study Conditions
on the Islands.
&EW YORK, Aug. 2. Senator Quay
has announced his intention of making
an early trip to the Hawaiian islands
to make a careful study of the country,
its prospects and advantages or disad.
vantages which would accrue to this
country on annexation. In an inter
view he gave the impre-Bion that he
was going as an Informal representa-
tive of the committee on foreign affairs,
and that on what he saw or learned
would be based a voluminous report
which would be read when the Ha
waiian annexation treaty comes up for
consideration.
Quay said his judgment and his vote
would entirely depend upon the im
pression which he might gain "by a
personal tour of the islands.
Senator Morgan, senior democratic
member of the foreign relations com
mittee, is also arranging for an ex
tended visit in September to the Ha-
waiian islands.

his grave and the other lying sick in
bed. Ex.

CANNOT ENDURE CONFINEMENT
Indians Soon Die If They Are Deprived of
Taelr Liberty In rrlnons.
At a recent meeting of the Sioux Val
ley Medical association Dr. S. Olnev. of
Sioux Falls, read a most intcresticf , not
to soy startling, paper on th effect of
confinement on the Indian. The Ar-
gus-Lcndcr had been told the same
facta by Col. J. II. Burns, of Deadwood,
but was inclined to take the colonel's
statement with a grain, or two of salt,
as the colonel is an enthusiastic cham
pion of the Indian. The figures of Dr.
OIney, however, ore even more start
ling than the statements made by
Judge Burns. ,
There are confined in the penitentiary
123 white men, some of whom have
been there for years. Of this number,
but two are sick. Of the 19 Indiana .
who have been confined in the peni
tentiary in the last two years three are
dead, one was pardoned in a dying con
dition and is now barely alive, five are
in the hospital with the death mark
upon them, and three are ill. Of the
seven who are practically healthy, five'
have been confined but one month, one
nine months and two for two years.
All of these Indians appeared to be
sound when they were admitted to the
penitentiary.
The statement of Judge Burn to '
Judge IZiner at the last term of the fed
eral court in Sioux Falls, that a abort
sentence of imprisonment was to. thu .
Indian in effect a death sentence, seems ':
to be literally true, and there is in this '
paper of Dr. Olney an appeal to federal -
judges which ought to have it weight.
CLIMATE AND CHARACTER.
National Traits Often Molded by the Na
ture of the Weather.
The civil war is said to have been
I caused by a difference in climate," and
i i JS "
whether
a not or cold climate has the
(rreatest effect on national character.'
It ha3 been widely believed that a se
vere climate produces The greatest ef- :
feet, because' it compels effort and self- .
denial, and thus promotes energy and
inventiveness, says the New York Jour
nal. ;
It would also seem that the influence '
of climate upon the national character
has been gTeatly exaggerated. - As
syria, Babylonia. Egypt and Carthage,
situated in hot latitudes, were among
the most masterful nations of antiq
uity. Mohammed and his conquering
legions issued from the burning wilder
ness of Arabia, and at a later period his .
successors were able to beat back .the
repeated attacks of the combined cru-.
sading nations from the north.
The greatness of a nation depends
mainly upon intellectual and moral
qualities, and these have often been
conspicuously developed among the in
habitants of hot climates. It is im
portant, too, to remember that the
same nation, occupying the same re
gion, mny be great and powerful in one .
age and weak and contemptible ia an
other. The difference between the an
cient Greeks, Komans and Saracens, on
the one hand, und their modern de
scendants on the other, cannot have
been due to climate. .
