Some of the politicians of both the old parties, says a Washington press correspondent, think a ray of light has broken to the far east. They hope the farmers of Germany have pointed a way to save the great political parties In this country from disruption an the sliver Question. In Iboth Democratic and Republican ranks here the sugges. Hon of another international money conference with world bimetallism as the object In view is viewed with favor. The action of the relchstag has Just come In the nick of time to give Amer icon politicians something to hide be hind. From this moment forward we may expect to hear a great deal of the glories of bimetallism and of the pros pects of securing It In all the leading commercial countries of the world, by international co-operation. Just a the pressure of events In this country Is driving both political parties upon the rocks of gold and silver, and requiring politicians to declare for one or the other, or lay themselves liable to the charge of cowardice, our German friends come forward with another pre text for all hands to rush In and avert the threatened declaration and division and find refuge behind bimetallism. There will be a great crop of Interna tional blmetalllsts In both parties. Al ready the alort Senator Hill has mad a publlo move In that direction, and many so-called statesmen are sorry tlwy did not get in ahead of him. The men who would find an International solution of this great problem have It all figured out that the agrarians have obtained mastery In Germany, that . France Is willing to go Into bimetallism as she always has Ibeem, and that Eng land, which has always been the stum bling Nock over which, this problem has fallen, la at last showing signs of a change of heart. They go so far as to say that Balfour is coming Into power in Britain, and that Oie will Join with Germany, France and the United States in finding a better and fixed status for silver In the world's money. In their enthusiasm they see the thing al ready accomplished, and the sliver question taken far enough out of our politics to avert the threatened disrup tion, of parties In next year's national conventional. It Is a very pretty scheme and one which gives comfort' to a great many ambitious Individuals, but In the opinion of many who know something of England's position and determina tion la the matter, there Is small chance of any assistance from that country. Count Bismarck says Balfour will make a campaign In favor of ll metalllBm, and hopes to overthrow Itosebery on that Issue. Though the silver leaders In Washington are In cor repondnoe- with bimotalllst agitators In England and Germany, It Is not un dergtood that they have any serious 'hopes of results In the former country." The Japanese seem to have solved for themselves the question as to tho rela- tlve merits of the battleship and the cruiser, which Is now agitating con- gress in connection with the proposl turn to provide for three new battle ships. While their cruisers, owing to suiK-rlor strategy in their management and wariness in attack, supplemented by the indlHiwnsible torpedo at fleet have managed to obtain victories over the Chinese, even with Inferior man agement and personnel, have given put a good account of themselves as to make it ajiarent to the Japanese that if ever they hope to meet another naval power in combat with chance of success they must themselves possess some of thu great battleships. It is regarded tia foregone conclusion that they will u'.-'iMlro the Chinese battleships Chen Vr-n u.vl Ting Yuen, If the latter can : .!, by conquest.

The battleships Will be of 14,210 tons displacement, 370 feet long, by 73 feet (beam. An armor belt 18 inches thick will extend for 224 feet along the dldtover She vitals of the ship, which will be propelled by engines of 14,000 horse power and carry each, two 12-lnch guns, ten 6-Inch gims and a great num ber of smaller machine guns. It will rc-nilre fully 6,000 tans of nickel steel Harvey lzl armor for these ships, and t'ju'He last requirements by the Japan' ese government indicate how quickly its naval officers profit by and adopt the very latest discoveries to naval construction, for It Is only very recent ly that the United States developed Ciils process of treating armor so as to add 50 per cent to Its resisting power. Referring to the new rules of the road at sea formulated by the International Maritime Conference, and which it was supposed would be put in force without delay, last Saturday's Bradstreet's says: It now appears that the govern ment of Great Britain has been making efforts recently to have the date for putting the new rules in operation post poned, in order that seamen may have further opportunities for becoming fa miliar with them. The British govern ment, it seems has been in receipt of constant petitions from seafaring men pointing out requirements in the new code which might be confusing to mar iners. Curiously enough, the revlsals and extensions of the fog signal code, R'hlch took up a great shore of the time of the maritime conference, have been especially criticised; and this not withstanding the fact that the early fog signals were confessedly inadequate as 'had been shown by the frequent dis asters due to collisions In foggy weath er. The present status of the matter may be gathered from a communication bade by his government to Sir Julian Pauncefote, in which. It is declared that all the European nations have practi cally agreed to suspend or postpone the operation of the new rules as suggested. Under the circumstance there seems no option for the United States but to fol low the example of the other countries approached by Great Britain. Provls ion for this course is made In a recently introduced bill, which, provides that Che new deep sea rules shall not take effect March 1, as fixed by the presi- Junt's proclamation last summer, but on some later date, to be fixed by the president. A vessel recently arrived at Phila delphia with a large cargo of canned French1' peas, grown in England. That it should import green peas, canned, from Europe, when such a crop can be grown in every section of the United States, Is not very oredltaWe. They are always readily salable in winter, which Is demonstrated by the fact that we send abroad for them, and they bring good prices. Here is an opening for some of our Clatsop county farmers to combine, build a canning factory, and grow green peas. From the samples of the home grown product sometimes seen In our markets, it would seem that this ought to be one of the most profit able crops that can be produced in Ore gon.

The play Is done, the curaln drops. Slow falls the prompter's bell; A moment yet the actress stops and looks around to say farewell. It Is an Irksome word and task, And when She laughed and said her say She shows as she removes her mask a face that's anything but gay. Acting is mot all gaiety, lights and applause. There is a deal of drudgery, vexation, and heartache that the people In the front of the house little Imagine. Mary Anderson used ftvadvlse young stage-struck girls to keep off the stage. The feverish excitement, the late hours, the drudgery of rehearsals, the unnat ural stimulus from new audiences, ri valry and applause, make the life full of perils to health of mind and body. The careless theatre-going public have no notion of the strain, on the nerves that is Inseparable from a dramatic career. But members of "the profession" know what It is, and they have ,os a body, learned how best to keep their nervous systems strong and capable of doing the hard work demanded of them. That Is why Palne'B celery com pound Is so popular on the stage. Helen Barry, the well-known actress, writes to a physician friend, from Tea Box Cottage, Oellfort: "It Is with great pleasure I write to tell you that I find Paine's celery com pound a splendid tonic. I should like you to procure me a few more bottles."

Ltit tt and Chicago, Aw ItMTSk, C ! Delia Fox, when "run down" from over-work, by the advice of the wife of a United tSates senator in Washing ton, tried Paine's Celery compound. She says: "My spirits picked up and at the end of two weeks the same pld exuberant health with whloh nature blessed me had returned. "I ate and slept as I had not done since I was a child, and I have never known since then an hour's inconven ience from nervous prostration. .'The medicine to which I owe so much Is Paine's celery compound, and I have recommended it to all of my stage acquaintances who have overtax ed their brains by too close attention to study, aind all have experienced the same happy results as myself." Marie Tempest, also, and a host more of the most eminent artists who appear before She public, have recently testi fied to the wonderful relnvlgorattag power of Palme's celery compound. Their testimony Is noteworthy because no class of women work harder or are under greater nervous Btralns. Women In every walk of life have reason to be grateful to Prof. Phelps, of Dartmouth, who discovered Paine's celery compound. He understood the peculiar weakness of the sex. He knew that the backache, lassitude, headache, sleeplessness, and loss of appetite all mean that the supply of nervous force is low and Inadequate to the demands upon It. The experience of thousands has taught the women of teh country that only Paine's celery compound will give health to the nerves, and, through them, to the entire body. If You Want The CASINO.
