WORLD'S IMPROVED BALANCE. The swift success of our aggres sive policy has left the whole world in a far more stable position than we found it at the opening of the year. The annexation of Hawaii has given that interesting group of islands a settled status, and our assumption of responsibility for the Philippines will speedily bring about a vastly improved situation in that populous archipelago. We ought to have no serious difficulty in assisting the Cubans to restore order throughout the island and to maintain fairly efficient institutions under republican forms. The wisest men in Spain are venturing to express somewhat boldly the relief that they feel in the whole some chastening that has come to them in the painful year 1898. This view h is been taken by busi ness men especially, and prevailed in the conference of Spanish cham bers of commerce that has met at Saragossa. Some of the most in telligeut 8panish writers are tak ing the ground that under modern conditions and responsibility of sovereignty over distant colonies is far more costly than profitable, and except for the point of pride in volved Spain is greatly bettor off without Cuba and the Philippines than with thorn. Of course the two situations are totally different. Cuba was entitled to one sort of administration and the Philippines to another. The Spaniards should have learned long ago to give Cuba to the Cubans in as com plete a sense a the English have given Canada to the Canadians, while they should also have learned long ago to have administered the Philippines strictly fcr tho bfiuilt n lliu inpuUtlou, 'following to B considerable extent the model of England in India. The time had come when it was too late to re form the abuses of Spain's bad colonial government, and there waB no remedy except to abandon the olonial business altogether. Thin heroic) remedy is one that tho ua. tionn which nood it never have the grace to administer to themselves. It has to be forced upou thorn from without. None the less, they may in good time learn to appreciate the service that has been done to them and forget the first smart. Spain may quite possibly have a bad year or two at home with which to end the ninetoeuth cuu- tury; but it is reasonable to pre dict that the Spauiards will open the twentieth century with very excellent prospects. For the fii-Ht time in years they have an undis turbed opportunity to give atten tion to home affairs. From "The Progress of the World," in the American Monthly Review of Re views for Jauuary. QAQE'S RECOMMENDATIONS. Secretery of the Treasury Ly mau J. Oage, iu his 1S98 auuual report, makes the following suggestions for the encouragement of our mer chant marine. War with Spain and the annexation of the Hawaiian archipelago, which have changed the politioal and commercial rela tions of the United Htates not only with Cuba, Porto Kioo, Hawaii aud the Philippines, but also with the continents between which aud North America those islands are stepping stones, requiring the prompt a loption of an nllinnativw maritime policy by the Dinted S:ates. A positive policy which shall Ci'eat. anew an American seagoing Merchant ih'et is tint more ilitlin Bically difficult to establish than lms the recent rehabilitation of the Amei iomi navy, or than, a third of atcotury ago, was the establish ment of transcontinental railroad communication. It will undoubt edly require at the beginuing, and for some time to come, tho appro priation of appreciable gudjn nf money, though very much let-s thHti our annual expenditures in timegof posce for naval construe ; ,;. . . i . ; . i . , ttou and maintenance but from . i i i the nature of the situation, these ; expenditures, if adequate at tho ' outset, can be decreased, and, as is usual with properly adjusted ex penditures for the improvement of means of transit and communica tion, will bring in an early and steady return on the investment By selection and combination from the methods of our compet itors, it will not be difficult to evolve a legislative project for the devel opment of our merchant marine and of domestic shipbuilding, ad justed to our special needs and based on the prevalent conditions of competition in the ocean carry ing trade. The method recommended may be specifically set forth in the fol lowing propositions: First A remodelling and exten sion of the act of March 3, 1891, relating to the carrying of ocean mails in American steamships, so that it shall meet requirements which have arisen since the law went into operation. Second The establishment of a system of graded bounties upon the mileage navigated by registered American vessels while engaged in the foreign carrying trade as com pensation for the training of sea men available for the national de fence, the system to have regard also to the construction of vessels which may be promptly and eco nomically converted into cruisers, troop ships, colliers and supply ships for the use of the govern-- ment. Special provision should also be made for vessels and men engaged in the deep-sea fisheries. Third Extended application of the principle of the act of May 10, 1892, by virtue of which tbe St. Louis and the St. Paul were con structed in this country upon the registry of the foreign-built steam. ships New York and Paris, this ex tenbion to continue for a short term of years and to be so guarded as to preserve the coasting trade to Americau-built vessels. Fourth A moderate increase in the rates of our tonnage taxes, equalizing them with the corre. sponding charges imposed at Lon don, Liverpool aud Hamburg, Fifth The restriction of the trade between the United States, Porto Itico and Hawaii and the coasting trade of those inlands to vet-BnU of American registry. Thp.no propositions are drawn rioui u..r iHinuiJti oriictices or our maritime competitors. They can bo put into operation promptly upon their enactment. They wil not raise diplomatic difficulties, dt laying action aud involving us in pn longed discussion or a war of commercial retaliation. They will not raise political questions upou w hich parlies, as now constituted, may divide. They are believed to bo outii'oly adequate to our needs. The details of these propositions are discussed in the report of the commissioner of navigation, io which are also to be found statis tics upon the subject. says nothing.

In addition to all these nod by far the moat important improvement of the year is the city water works, now in oourse of construction and whioh will be completed early in the new year.

But we have seen a portion of this trade gradually depart, facilities for transportation having been extended into those sections, and now we are threatened with the loss of a large pro portion of tbe trade that has coma to i s from Klickitat, Crook aud Grant oonn ties t!ie past year, and even a consider able portion of Wasco eonuty's trade Is liable to be lost. . The Columbia Southern railroBd has bn b iilt as far south as Moro, whi.ih oontrols the grain trade of all of Sber mn oouuty, and by this time next year it will be o imploted to Ad'elope.

A curious feature of a larr relief works camp in the Tunjab w here about 40,000 arsons are at work, is art ar rangement just introduced by which a larpe number of babies are looked after while their mothers are at work. Pre vious to this about 700 or 800 babies of all sorts were all left in one plac and tha mothers, anxious in the evening to re claim their littleones, presented a scene which is better imagined than de ncribed. It was not possible even for mothers to find their own babies eas ily, and the authorities were embar rassed not a little. The officer in charge, however, has treated the babies on the umbrella and coat principle. He has provided each of the babies with a string and ticket in duplicate, one being hung round the baby's neck and the other given to the mother. Alla- uauaa i-joneer-MaU.
