WELCOME THE SKIPPERS. .The fallowing item appeared yester day In our marine columns; An arrangement has been made where' , by Tacoma will get a great deal of wide spread advertising through the shipmas ters wOito frequency go to that city with sh.ps rom all parts of the world. The mill companies and Institutions dealing with the ship learn the names of the captains of incoming vessels -with which they are to deal and Immediately send the list Wo the secretary of the chamber of commerce. The secretary at once sends an Invitation to the captains as fast as they arrive extending them the priv ileges otf uhe chamber of commerce read ing rooms, etc. In view of the pleasant headquarters afforded by this chamber iti'M is regarded as a very good way in which to gala the good will and favor of a class of men who will be able to do much in spreading the fame of Tacoma ar.4 over the world. 'Astoria this year yfJH enter and clear cons&teraldy over a hundred per cent more ocean going vessels titan all the Puget Bound porta put together, and U has always seemed to us as though the excellent suggestions contained In the above extract should long ago have been acted upon In tlhis city. It stands to reason that the captain of a Ship com ing in from a long, dreary voyage or leaving out with the prospetots of months of sentf-aoMuue before him, is Impree slonalMe. A little kindness goes a long way wiUh hta, and the class he belongs to are notoriously In the habit of re membering with gratitude and pride any service, nawever smgint, rendered in a genuine manner. They not only remem ber tt In secret but never fall to tell people r.n their (hearty and boisterous -way all about It, to dwell upon it, and perhaps to exaggerate It a little as well. However this may be, the citizens of every large. port ln the world have long ago recognised the necessity of taking tllw vksmtlng sh'.p captain under their es pecial protection, and of Impressing him wMi till e fact that tlhey are anxious to treat him and his officers well. They know Una It they succeed in their efforts to please Uhey have a walking, living and enthusiasts adverMsemeint of the advan tages of their port, wSuo never fails to taCk of it and ita clUsenis In ewry quar ter of the globe. In short these shrewd and long headed business men see and Jump at such a chance to give so much notoriety with such a Untie expenditure of time and trouble. In Aston when a ship captain lands he Is an Ishmlaellite. Save for tine cere mony of a chat wluh old time skippers In the stevedore's office, and a visit to the consul's office for liters and prob ably some cash, he Is a stranger iu a strange land. A few curious peopto at trwdted probw.y by the Strang cut of h'M Jib turn their heads as he passts and look ait him a second time. But, uudde of these oases in the desert of frlgiidlty, he arribhss along in his self camtatmd manner and thinks "What kind of to, blamed port 'ave I dropped Into any'owT" TthU is ail WToag.. Every skipper who comes among us thlouSkl be made welcome by some puU.c body, and tausht that he Is w.th friends who are glad to te him. Eatlh private cltlsen should seise every opportunity thrown In h'.s way, to b: of service to him. It all counts In the long run, and Is good, sound policy. WAOE3 AND POLITICS. The extent of the v oil unitary advances In wages can not be accurately stated, but it Is safe to est.maite that at least 1,000,000 workman Ihove received an in crease of pay averaging 10 per cent. Nothing like UUs has ever before been known, it marks a new departure in the malrter of the relations between employ ers acJ employes, ami teaches a salutary lemon mn tlh regard to the Important ques tion of capdtul and tabor. Furthermore, lit thus pronlounced political significance, and this Is probably line aspect of It that deserves closest aiUntlcm. The Demo crats are trying to make it appear that tlhe.r jaruy has brought about th 1 re markable resiWt; but It :s easy to see that there Is no JuStifk-ution for such a claim. Tare fact Is well k.iown that whn the present almtnitrUon caine in, the coumry was prosperous, and working men had full employment alt good wages. That thu sltuaton begun tk changd for the wonc w.lilv.n a short time. A p.rlod of dkiprenal-on and uncertainty ensued, and the employers hUd to reduce wages and ouriatl their operations. The conditions were not different from those wtiKti xt'ted under the preceding Republican admin titration except in a political re spect. Democratic rute wis the obvious cause of the trouble, and no other ex pi! out Ion wlB answer. There was a turn in the casj wCten the Republicans carried the elections last fill. Taat was the bog nnlng of the Im-prwvfin-nrt aftlch r.s now restoring the ViUgtS that wtere cut down during the time that the Democrats had entire con trol of the government. It Is not to be supposed that this gratifying change would have taken place if the political situation had remained ,Uie same a ' v.as a year ago. The Democratic party has not done anything since tJie last eleoyaa to revive business and promote prosperity. It was not until the lam congress adjourned, and danger of m'-OoDrlevous legslatlon was removed tliait the employers ftlt sure lri making cr.cu.it ons tor the future. There was no advance In wages so Ion n th bUJty of Democratic trilling with com mercial and industrial Interests remaned Tlie fact that the Republicans n-111 have p;-wer kn the next congress to prevent trjse ana nuniul legislation is the one to which the workinsrmen are most in debtcd for the advantage which they are rvw obtaining. Their pay would not have been, raised, their chances of m ploymcnt would not have b;en innrpani if a Democratic house had been elected last November. The advances In wiges are oue to political causes-lto the assur ar.ee that there to to be Ho more such tinkering W.th the tariff and other vital issues as tiWat which produced the hard times; and the people thus benefitted will bear this In mind when thev coma to votle for the next president.

This allowance Is lib eral enough to escape tlhe elamding male- dldK'on pUaced on the ih'ieys of any Eng lish official who would rob a poor man of his beer. The London Specitultor frankly admits tihait "Una European worldi Is th'.rstlna for dependencies, is seizing Immense possesujons beylonld Uhe sea, and Is de claring that its prosperity depends al moot exclusively upon it power to se cure and to proftoct transmarine com merce." The United States is the one advanced and powerful na'tlon that is not in this pool, and it Is not l.kely to have occasion tto regret Its absence from the gaime of grabbing fresh territory. It appears from the official statistics that during the present crop year Europe has Imported 12.70S.000 bushels leas of wtafei: fiiem the Uh-teki .States than In the corresponding period of the preced ing year, while there has been a decided ncreasj of imports from Russia, India, AustraJlali.a and Argentina.

He ttild: "Vour genuine free s Iver poUticlan is a pure fluitlst, of far sound money, Just as the occauton suits," and hie quoted Mom one of them in Nebraska as declar ing thoit "no free silver advocata pro posea .u go on record as endorsing the idea of limiting itn volume of li'gal ten der money for all time to come to the output of gold end sliver bull Won." It now Is practically conceded by them that free oinutre would make silver the sole standard of value. To sustain their hobby tlhey-ere willing to chango the standard. : i Mr. Yates said tllver '. not now di. mneitlied. Tt to stilt' money and dolcg a large share In regulating the com meuvc of 'the world, but he held that Its exlsi.enci Is threatened, and that the world Is ' not prepared for fh s contln gjney. ""Phta threatened destruction of (sliver) capliMl Is Uhe true and only necessity lor bnieballlom," as ths stock of gold Is annl to Itrunsact J'he business of khe iwortd. FVee coihatre at th time at any raclo Is Impracticable. No govern ment could be Induced to open Its mints to silver at the old ratio or umlertake the hi ivy loss of revtonllng at a h'flier raitSo.

He says there ehouM be no forced ptinchaKw, as undi our Sherman act. but stiver might be given an established mint rHv, Just us gol Is now priced at the Bank of England, and which price need not be higher than the average commercial value for the current year. At th.s price the sliver might be re celved freely at every mint, so much of the bullion being coined at the pres ent raitlo as would to; requ red for its purchase and the remainder held In Its bullion form as a reserve Instead of gold. "We rihouid In this Iway have free mintage Instead of fme coinage.

The speaker claimed this would not in the slightest degn. endanger the main tenance of the gold standard. There wlould not be any consideralbie addition of t iver In the now gold standard coun arles, but their monetary systa-nis would take 'In considerable quantities wltlhout risk. Tithe pdan oultllned would not do for shver all tl-jait Us flatlet friends de mand. iBut It would accomplish for it an iinere Is 'the Bilgteslt poss.billty ot be Ing done, and ".the real friends of the white mefcal ought to be depended uoon to concur dn .this or some similar proposi tion. - 'wjtnout sotoij well-defined pro gram 'Uhe international conference asked for by coniTess woutd prove as futile and useless as all previous commissions huve been." Mr. Yates said efforts should be concentrated in an endeavor to obtain proper congressional action for the Im provement of the present government currency, ntot Tor its retirement "It an anomaly for a government to issue its own 'bank notes, but it cannot be cutanea fhaJt sJ.-jai resumption these notes have failed -to perform the functions of a safe currency," and he doubted if any saxe currency could be constructed that will work automatically, expond.ng wrten the occasion Justifies and contracting wnen reuuwaant, as tialked about by tinose who demand an elastic currency. The legislation which is most needed for the seour.ty of our commercial transactions and thi imaintalnamce of the world's standard of value Is tihait which will plainly and explicitly authorize ths gov- ennmenlt to maintain the value of every species or money in c.rcullation at parjty with gold by redemption in srold, and to obtain wihich, is required for the purpose by the use of government credit on Ohe most flavoralble terms and condl Hons. "The disgraceful spectacle pre' sentijd In he la.t comgresB should be made itmpoesiibte of repetition.

The sequel is k'nown to all the world, GLADNESS.

While I was pastor of the Baptist Church at Rives Junc tion, she was brought down with Pneumonia, succeeding La Grippe. Ter rible paroxysms of coughing wculd last hours with little interruption and it seemed as if She could not survive them.
