COLUMBIA RIVER
DITVRES.
EXPEX-
A plan has been suggested to
the war department to imrove the
native horses in the Philippines
by proper breeding and raise suit
able cavalry mounts there. As it
woald cut off a large expense, the
matter will probably be seriously
considered. If followed ut, in
time, this would have some effect
on the western horse market, but
it will take a long time to accom
plish anything.
The western public land situa
tion will be brought before coo
gress this winter. It seems that
the National Livestock Association
is becoming alarmed. A number
of prominent cattlemen who have
been investigating are prepared to
show that daring the past five
years, there has been an enormous
decrease in the cattle supply. The
western ranges are being gradaally
contracted while the demand is in
creasing, which is only a natural
result It is proposed to have con
gre&s take charge of the matter
through a commission. It is a per
plexing question.
P.ecent statistics collated on the

953.158.OfX gallons of wine in a

Germany, forty times as much as
the United States and sixty times

The per capita consumption of

United States, 0.33 of a gallon.
The Seattle Post Intelligencer
in commenting upon the expendi
tures for the Columbia river, is of
course opposed to the improve
ment of the chaunel between As
toria and Portland. In a receut
editorial good argument aud good
sense is used in advocating the
great benefits that would come
from expenditures which would
open up the upper Columbia to
Bteamboat navigation, but the at
tack upon the Oregon delegation
for the appropriation of money for
the channel to Portland, shows too
plainly the spirit of rivalry be
tween the Sound city and Portland.
That the people of the great In
land Empire have been too back
ward in their demands and advo
cacy of an open river, there is no
question. So long as present ex
cessive freight rates exist, develop
ment of this great country will be
retarded. The present conditions
are well explained in the following
from the P.-I.:
"The Columbia river is practi
cally one of the greatest water
ways in the country. Were it not
for a few existing obstructions in
its channels, obstructions which
should have beeD lemoved long
ago, it could be opened to steam
boat navigation from the Pacific
ocean to the northern and eastern
boundaries of the state of Wash
ington. If opened to navigation
it would afford a competitive route
of transportation for all the pro
ducts of the inland empire, which
would inevitably tend to bring
down railroad rates throughout the
entire valley of the Columbia and
its tributaries. As it stands, the
Columbia is practically closed to
navigation, save on its lower
reaches, and this splended water
way does not come into competi
tion with the land routes to East
ern Washington and Oregon in the
slightest degree. A mere arm of
the sea, extending from Astoria to
the mouth of the Willamette,
would amount to as much, so far
as regards its effect on inland
transportation, as does now this
great stream, the second in size, in
length, in the volume of water
which it carries and the area which
it drains, among the rivers of the
North American continent"
