Japan jing-oa may be In a pro

eoiuea to buaiueaa, atoll went take
a rear seat. On the 28th ult, the
Baldwin IvMjoinotlve woik in I'hll

Japan government for 30 locomo

aaying that "alnc Japan haa gone to
the gold baaia, China will outstrip
her." Thin prediction la made on

cate that cheap money inaurea the
prosperity of a nation. Were that
true, China ought already to be the
more prosperous because she haa
been on a copper baaia for agea.
Argentina that baa been a com
iietitior in the wheat market of the
world la this year a purchaser, both
for aeed and milling purpose 1 the
dealers at Buenos Ay res enter the
open market in the United States. A
New York authority Htudying the
Argentina wheat fields finds that in
the past ten years three seasons have
been failures, one a disappointment,
three partial successes, two successes
and one great succetM. In that south

that cannot he overcome.
The world's Mock of silver money
U now, according to the New York
Journal of Commerce, a trifle over 4
billion of dollars, of wnich tW.-i&l,-000,000
is full legal tender. Of this
amount no less than 2,418,OOO)0oo
has been coined si nee 1873, and all
of this coinage bat about 15 per cent
is full legal tender, showing that the
silver money of the world has much
more than doubled since the "crime"
period, and the proportion which l
full legal tender has been well main
tained. This is the way the Itoseburg Re
view, Bryan free silver, replies to
the Yreka Journal's remark that
wheat is 20 cents per bushel higher
than it was one year ago. "Why
fabricate in little matters of this
kind? Wheat sold in Roseburg last
fall for 70 cents a bushel and upward,
now it is about 60 cents. If farmers
should get last year's prices again
they will be as fortunate as the far
mers of foreign countries, where the
crop is a failure, are unfortunrte."
Such pettifogging brings on extreme
lassitude.
The Japan press bas detailed the
ease with which that barbaran nation
could attack Honolulu, Han Fran
cisco and Seattle and capture them
before we could make preparation
for defense. Tbey admit tbat ulti
mately they could not stand before
us. Well, why run such dreadful
risks for a first temporary success?
United States will with dignity per
sue her destiny and if, after due do
liberation it shall seem the best "pol
icy to annex Hawaii, then annexa
tion will be, just as the tariff law was
enacted notwithstanding protests.
Japan consents to arbitrate with
Hawaii the difference between the
two uations touching the admission
of Immigrants Into the latter country.
For bold effrontery this surpasses
anything tht history records. The
idea of forbidding a nation the choice
of whom it may admit as alien resi
dents is monstrous, and too, the -duress
Intended to be exercised by the
presence of three warship In the
harbor of Honolulu, Is without paral
lel. If Jaiwn stations warships there
lending the sitting of the board of
arbitration, then we must have a few
war canoes there too. Or better let
ii annex ao there will be no need of
arbitration.

Hon. 1). P. Thompson an ex pres-i-rient
of the Portland Savlntrs Bank
has been recognlxed as something of
an authority en banking an'l finance
and will continue to be quoted ly
the free silver el-ment of thecountry.
IatM week he lectured before a Port
land audience and indulged In son e
historical remenlceuces. He is report
ed to have stated that the Portland
Having Bank, which made a tmd
failure about two years ago would le
oow sound and doing business ha'l
not silver been demonetised in 173
Home, at least, of hi hearers consid r
this a remarkable statement espec
lady when they remember the bank
was not incorporated until some time
after the "crime of '73" was commit
ted. The wonder is that the bank
was not organised on the conditions
present at that time. If fU was
the unit of value why did not the
bank president, who was the lecturer,
recognise that fact. Some have
thought that the failure of the bank
waa more du to the fact of Its being
short on good management rather
than abort on silver.
MA TERSA L LI EE IXSVJtA At E.
Atiout thirty years ago a niectiauic
uaiued UpcliUrcd coutvived tt.a idea
f hetterinir tiie mri'liti'm of hi
fellow laborers lJ UiLif futtiiiiii t.j
organizing a plan for lif" Insurance
that should be furnUtied at ct.
The aim was to enable a man of
moderate means to provide a small
ipsurance that would withu fail be
siid to his benetU-iiiry at Ins deuth.
This was to be done at cost. Two, or
three years later the pUn was formu
lated. The usme of Ancient Order ol
United Workmen was chosen. It is
now, however, better known by the
initial Me- A.O.-U. V.'. . Tl.
ought simplicity, economy, hones'y,
equity and reliability. Simplicity
wan the pau-iit of an u.twnieiit
at the death of a memts-r. hcotiomy
did away with managing officials on
a high salary, the brethren manMing
their own lu-.met at weekly or bi
weekly meetings in tti lislge room.
Honesty put I o great sum of money
in the treasury to tempt the cupidity
of a possible . .. (llsKonest . ''. j'J-:aB.
Kquity when all paid alike; this is
known as the level assessment ptau.
Kel iu tl Illy was secured in making
smalt and frequent payment suited
to the ability of the a-sured. This
was further aided by the faith thai
one brother has in another hih'htencd
by personal contract. His the plan
succeeded? Wonderfully.
Ai the order grew it was found
.ouvient to di viilo the members into
classes of 2000 or a few more, so that
at each assHwment of f 1 00 each the
exact sum required for a death lo
would be raised. AH policies are
written for IJooO, no more, no less.
As far as the records of the order are
coucerned distinctions of wealth are
absolutely unknown. To secure these
classes a territory of convenient size
of easily defined boundary was nec
essary. This was secured by creati ng
a state or two states into (jrand lisle
jurisdictions. Each state therefore
collects and disburses its money
within its own borders.
Above It was hinted that equity is
an element in the organization. It
was thought that such was secured
when every member was required to
pay the same sum, but theexpectan.
cy of life is an element that had not
ts?en fully considered. Rival orders
sprang up witn new aiM attractive
schemes for getting members chief of
which are grcaded assessments and
reserve funds. A graded asses-meid
admits young men for less money
than older men. A young man Is re
quired to pay say only an assessment
of f0 cents which rate is not charged
while the old man is required to pny
1.00 or even more. This seems
equitable and would be if the young
man never advanced beyond the age
of twenty five years. The A. O. L.
W. for further answer pointed out
that fraternal insurance is by retail
that Is a man Is assured only a month
at a time and he should be required
to pay the cost of insurance for that
month. If it cost 60 cents per month
to insure a man of 25 years and f 1.00
to Insure a man of 45 years, the
first man does not pay the cost of his
insurance when he reaches the ag
of 45 years and Is required to pay no
more than SO cents. Piling up a
reserve fund is dangerous and ought
to be avoided.
The A. . U. W. has met the
question of life expectancy by adopt
ing the classified plan, that is the
membership of the o'der is divided
into 7 classes according to age. The
classes with the assessment levied on
the members are:
Class. Ago. Amount.
1 18-2.5 f I 20
2 25-30 1 30
3 30-35 1 44
4 35-40 1 ot
5 40-45 2 02
6 45-50 2 02
7 50-and upwards 3 50
When a member of class one rea-
dies 25 years he steps out of that
class into the one almve and for th.
next five years psys the higtier rete.
at the age of 30 he takes another
step and so on till he reaches the se
af 50 years after which his assess
ments lax-ome level. T.j unit the
additional cost which aire entails a
mall reserve fund is provided To
niiniuii.e the element of disiipttion
this fund is to I invested in l". S.
bond.
It vkonlng on past experiences, it
appears that eight assessments in
Oregon will pay the death lo-si-s for
a year. A member of the fir-t clan
will pay but : 60 for a .'iiik jsilicy
for one year which is certainly within
reason, while a member of the tih
eUs pays hut 20.!i while the 7ih
class has assistance from the reserve
fund. The old man piys what ii
costs to insure him and if it j
is but a few cents more than
before, while the ymidg man
pays only what it r.t. In thei
debate at the l-tte esi,,a of die gran I i
I'sle of t irev-on It was shown from
the testimony nf Actum' that the
system is a'ssolutely -!f-s'i-d nnui.
This Is baed on the s rum tit ot
the last 25 years.
This departure of the A. O V. W.
seems to meet nil the criticisms of
Its rivals and more. It is urjs nor
to them. Young men as well a
older men should fl s'k to its lodg
room and secure protection for their
fain i lies.

"It's me, sor?"
"And who la me?"
"And how should I know who yeex
are?" retorted Norah, and the laugh
that reached her ears over the wire
made her so angry that she "broke
the connection." ilarpers Bazir.
The above will do to go with the
story of the boy who telephoned,
"Send up a bag of oats." "Who are
they for?" "For th horse."
TOO 3IITH DEBS.
Debs left tonight for Columbus, on
business which he declined to make
public. Before leaving he ex pressed
himsell as greately encouraged. He
expects great results from today's
meetings.
That is a portion of this morning's
Associated Press dispatches from
Pittsburg. And it suggests some
thing. Who is Debe? By what right does
he meddle In the coal miners' strike?
what special qualiflications does he
possess that entitle him to leader
ship of the strikers? Did he ever dig
for coal, or has he ever shown any
exceptional ability as a leader of
meu?
Debs is a visionary and a trouble
maker. He has never worked in a
coal mine, nor has he ever conducted
an orderly and successful strike. In
the railway strike a few years ago,
he proved himself an unsound advis
er, an imprudent leader and an un-
unworthy representative of the real
interest in tbe present trouble Is
trouble is measured by the prestige
which will be conceded to him as a
leader. His knowledge of the situa
tion Is necessarily limited. He does
not share the privations or hardships
of the miners, but thrives and pros-
pen on their misfortunes. Conse
quently it is to his Interest to prolong
the strike. It has not yet lasted long
enough to suit this speculator in
human sweat and human misery
this cormorant that fattens ou human
discontent. Not until he has been
sufficiently exalted will he sincerely
endeavor to raise the embargo and
permit his humble subjects to resume
work.
The situation of the striking min
ers appeals strongly to every humane
person, and that they have the sym
pathy of the public is ample sbown
by the comments of the press of all
parties throughout thecountry. But
no Intelligent sympathizer can re
gard the work of Debs among the
leaders ol the cause with anything
short of regret and apprehension.
