The Gazette. Thursday, May 18, 1899. The friendly personal cable messages that have passed between the Emperor of Germany aDd President McKinley since the lat ter approved the application for the landing of the new German cable in the United States, have not pleased thoBe who have been for months exaggerating eyery little occurence, and man factoring some, for the purpose of creating ill-will between the people of the two countries, but they hava served to show the world, as well as the people of the two countries, that the rulers of Germany and of the United States have no idea of al lowing the friendly relatious of the two nations to be disturbed by sensation mongers. Secretabi Gage has been of fered a salary in the neighborhood of the one that tempted Speaker Iteed out of public life, to beoome President of one of New York's big banks, but it is not likely that he will accept. He made a heavy fi nancial sacrifice when he became Secretary of the Treasury, and will probably continue in the office until March 1th, 1901, if uo longer. There is no doubt that if he desires to remain in that position during president McEinley's Becond term that the President will be pleased to have him do so. There is no man in the country better fitted by knowledge and experience to fill the arduous duties of Secretary of the Treasury than Mr. Gage. Never have the affairs of that great department of the government moved smoother than sinoe he has been at its bead, and never has the credit of the nation been higher. This is high praise, but it is deserved. The business outlook on the Pa cifio coast was never better than at present. "Westward the star of empire takes its way." The west ward movement has been going on as long as time has run, and the acquisition of the islands in the Pacific by the United States, the advance of enlightened civilization into China, the building of the Nicaragua canal, and the opening of new fields of commercial activ ity is directing renewed attention to the far west. Men with capital to invest, and well-to-do people of all classes, are coming to Oregon to find homes and take part in our industries and the development of our rich resources. The Isles of the Pacific and the Orient when populated with enterprising people will want more of products at bet ter pricoB. Oregon, situated in the midst of these great activities, with boundless resources in timber, grain oattle and products of all kinds, offers possibility not excell ed by any state in the uuiou. Albany Herald. Aguinaldo'b supplication for peace came so close upon the de claration of President MoKinley that the revolt should be put down, no matter how much money it oosts nor how many men it might require to convinoe even the most doubting that the Filipinos had been kept informed of everything done in this country, and have aoted upon the information. Had they not re ceivod enoouragement from this oouutry, which caused them to be lieve that there was a possibility ol our withdrawing from the islands, if they fought stubbornly enough, there would never have been any revolt The action of Uen. Otis in telling the representa tives of Aguinaldo that the only conditions under which he woul3 stop fighting was to grant a genera! amnesty for au unconditional sur- render, is so fully indorsed by the adminstration that no orders have been sent to him. It is felt that he has correctly sized up the situation and can be left to deal with the Filipinos without further inetruo. lions. Resides, the American Com- niinsioners, who are fully ac quainted with President McKin- ley's wishes, are with him to aid in settling any questions that may arise. It is confidently expected that no better terms can be ob tained, accept those offered by Gen. Otis; they are already fully convinced that nothing but defeat for them lies in fighting our sol dier. And notwithstanding their outside assistance, they are short of nearly all kinds of supplies. CIRCUIT COURT. Tbe Seulun an Kxeeedlsglr Bur Ob.

Many other well bred oolts held our at tention, besidea the band of mules and coarser stock that Mr. Swaggart supplies tbe market with.
