Ibe city election was qaiet There was ouly one ticket in the field. There was no contention. Heppner business men pull to gether. The new officers are rep resentative men and the city will be well governed. It was not much trouble to raise 300,000 in Portland for the 1905 fair. It is rery likely that the fund will be swelled "to 500,000 before the committees get through soliciting. This is a great start, and with such enterprise and push behiiid it the project cannot fail. The county treasurer of Morrow county has called in all warrants registered prior to November 11. 1901. Morrow is another of the practically new counties of Oregon, and this is a remarkably good show ing, considering the fact that it as sumed a large debt when it was organized. Blue Mountain Eagle. Admiral I jowe, who was oue of the officers aboard, oay that the air j was as pure and an clean as in a Iioum' or in the cabin of a yacht. The Kultou has thus passed suc cessfully through a test to which no other submarine boat has ever been subjected. The Holland was submerged in the Potomac last year for three hours. The Fulton had never been submerged before longer than twenty-five minutes. That was a few weeks ago, when she made a two-mile run under water. It looks now as if submarine boats bad come to stay as an ele ment of harbor defense, if nothing more. The Government has con tracted for seven vessels of the Ful ton type. Great Britain has be come sufficiently interested in this class of war vessels to order half a dozen or more from the Holland company. The Danish navy is al so equipped with several submar ine boats. France leads all the naval powers, however, in this branch of defensive equipment. That republic has a fleet of forty eight already constructed and sev eral more are being built. The French submarine boat differs, how. ever, from the Holland patent in many essential features. One of the French submarine boats haa a displacement of 266 tons and is provided with electrical engines of 120 horse-power. She can make fifteen knots on the surface and has descended to a depth of sixty five feet. Her highest speed when submerged is only eight knots. The experiments made with the Holland type prove that it may be trusted under very severe condi tions. Its value in warfare will have to be determined when its service is called into action. Mean time, naval designers are exercis ing their wits to devise something) which will be a good defense for battle-ship against submarine boat attack. A special emissary from China has arrived in San Francisco from China to work against the re-enactment of the Chinese exclusion law. Tba Chioeee will do every thing possible to defeat the re-en. actment of the Geary law. The defeat of the law would be a good thing for the Chinese, but it would be at the expense of labor. Second "What is the outlook Tor action at the next session of com gros.?" Third "Is there organ ized opposition to the canal ; it so, what influences aie arrayed against it?" Fourth "'What, in your judgment, would bo the effect of an isthmian canal on the industries and commerce of Oregou aid other northwestern 6tates?" In respouse. I beg to say I did not suppose there was any leading journal, or in fact any person, who has kuowledge of my past record, but was fully informed as to my positiou in respect to the isthmian canal certainly could not anyone familiar with my record iu the son ate heretofore. 1 have always been an uneomprising advocate and sup porter of national legislation look ing to the construction of an isth mian canal by the goverumeut and to be controlled by the govern ment, and I am today. As to the outlook for action at the next session of congress in re spect to this most important, to my mind, piece of legislation, I believe it to be excellent. As to whether there is any or ganized opposition to the canal, I am unable to say, even if there is, it perhaps will not develop until the meeting of congress. I believe, furthermore, the etlect of an isthmian canal ou the indus tries and commerce of Oregon aud other northwestern states cannot be otherwise than beneficial in the highest degree. Jobs II. Mitchell. Literary Notes WILL COXGRESS REIMBURSE SCHLEY. Senator Mitchell with his old time vim and energy will start in early at hard work at the present session of congress, and will intro duce many important bills, as fol lows: To establish an assay office at Portland; to create a ser. arate judicial district in Eastern Oregon with headquarters at Baker City; far the repayment of fees, purchase money and commissions paid by settlers on void entries of public lands; for the relief of citizens of Uptakes he may have made, or Oregon, Washington and Idaho, who served with United States troops against the Nez Perce, Ban nock and Shoshone Indians; to regulate the taking of fees and fil ings in certain land cases, to ap propriate funds for investigation and tet of American timber: grant ing pensions to certain officers and men of the lifesaving service; ap propriating 10.000 for a launch for the customs service at Astoria; to reimburse California, Oregon and Nevada for money expended in suppression of the rebellion; to extend the provisions of the Black Hawk Indian War veteran bill to the benefit of surviving veteran of the Cayaae and other Indian Wars of Oregon and Washington? for the The proposition to reimburse Admiral Schley for his expenses in the Naval investigation will prob ably come before Congress, and if so, is likely to occasion a warm de bate, for while he haa many ar dent friends in CoDgress, there are others who will be disposed to side with the Admiral's enemies or ac cusers, and who will protest against such an appropriation. There is no precedent for making an appropriation to reimburse an officer for expenses incurred under such circumstances, bat there will not be lacking men who will argue that Schley's case is peculiar, and especially deserving. It is expect ed that it will appear from the ver diet of the court that Schley is not guilty of the charges made against him; but whatever the court may decide the people generally have long ago acquitted him of any se rious breach of duty. Any minor any hesitation he exhibited, are ignored in the popular miud by the glorious success of the culmin ating event He was not only wrongfully accused, but he was shamefully and vilely slandered by a man in the employ of the Government, a man employed by the Navy Department, to write a "History" or whose "History" was at first approved, w hich "History" contained these foul slanders, to publish which, apparently, it was chiefly written, and this tool of slander is still on the government payroll. It is also stated that of the prize money, Admiral ceived only $'1G. It is supposed that he will eventually receive The Christmas number of MoCIure's is a very attractive magazine.
