We will make an auto malic machine to do the work long before the expiration of that time. Now that we have a place in the Orient we of the I'aciflc will not have longer to look after the Intercuts of the Nicaragua canal. We will not need the canal an we did a few year ago. It is the Atlantic people who will. However It will be two or three years before It is open, and we will have time, if we are upry, to eHtablitth our poHltion in the world of commerce and can with auccew- meet the couipeltion of our eastern neigh bors. A Philippine "general" don't want to . become a colony of the United States because we do not know how to govern colonies. That "general" will, If he keeps out of the range of MacArthur's.Krag-Jorgensen", come to know the quality of American government. The United States knows how to practice justice and merry bow to be honest and faithful. The quality of those virtues it univ ersally the same and will be observed In Luaon as in Massachusetts.

One of the two upot ships la Portland wa offered at 3im 9d oa Thursday, but y terday her owuer dciranded 4us. Then fact eiplalu pretty thoroughly why the Portland wheat market dots not always respond to advance in other market. The intelligent farmer un- derntaad the aituatioo, but oraclm like the Ilillsboro Independent an I one or two other sheets of a similar stripe solemnly assert that it is the "railroad pool" and the "Portland wheat ring" that force the shipowner on the other side of the world toad vance his rales whenever the im provement in the foreign wheat market gives him an opportunity to do so. Oregonian Sept. 30. Now as to whether there is a "wheat ring" In Portland or a "rail road pool" the I.vdei-endent nu nc! Information sufficient to form a belief.

WediwoiUy afteruonn Mr. Tongue ami daughter a ere guests ul the Soldier's home and re ceived a very cordial welcome fi.itm the commandant and old veteraDS. Mr. Tongue's popularity ste'dly increscing In this prt ol the ihte, where the ne.iul are he-tinning- to resli4 that in him Oregoa ha uit alle and indti-rfriou chmpi n in congress. Mr. Toi.gue's acquaint .iiu-e and noouliiritv with his cfU . . - l.-stiU' t in congress is Jusl begiiniitig to place iiitu in a piaitiou lo nccoiii- lihh much gHl lor his district and the a'aie at lurje. few fur Western uiwi havinii iimre ItiUuence iu coa has however from time to time called , prert than has Mr. Tongue. Fi r some time pa-t Mr. Tongue has b n working vigorously to retire Ihecon- demnation and purchase of the locks at Oregon Ci:y !'' government, in whii ii he h thus fur sn nnl Hiicci-etful. The imis-irtani of this eff irt on the tnrt of our congressman will be more iully realll and ap- preciated alien It is ttaled that fr I.K-ks at Orogon City means an ar. nuitl cavliiu' to the Willamette valley farmers of over liW.OOO. Th3 freight rute through the locus being 5 cents a ton, ahoiitiou of the toll would reMilt In a saving of atxmt f2.rJo,000 a year to ihe prtslucert and RhiiKT interested. The population of the district projawd to be ixnetltted hy the pun hae of the locks being about 1 41.0m. Mr. Tongue very sesibly ar nues that "in a word, the river I- a regulator of freight rates. To abolish the tell means W off of every carlond of produi-e and merrnandine bhips d from valley points to Portlund, aid from Portlund to valley oint8." In Mr. Tongue Oregon moht certainly has a most able and energetic reprc- attention to several things which looked like facta and "wanted t" know, you know." For instance it baa been curious about the cause of the difference in the price of wheat iu Portland, a port only 100 miles from tie sea, and Chicago, 1000 miles from salt water. It hasst emed that the long land haul ought, to torn- exeut, to offset interest and insur ance. Why there should be more than ten cents per bushel difference in the price of wheat in the market on the same date is what this "strip, ed" paper can not understand, though the Oregonian' "intelligent farmer" may. The above paragraph from the Or- egoniau seems to indicate that th price of wheat is regulated by the price of freight. The "ring" appears, therefore, to be in with the ships. But that shillings quotatiou Is not quite plain to us out here; so let's see how it appears in our money : de duced 38 shillings is 19 43 cents per ton and 40 shillings is J0.73, or a dif ference ol 30 ctt per ton of 33 bushels 1JI PORTS ASD EXPORTS F0U SINE YEARS. From paragraphs that have appeared la many of the opposition papers and a few that have been supposed to be friendly to the adminis tration, it begins to appear that the tsrriff arguments of I8!W will be uted again in 1900. One favorite squib was the asertiou if we invaded the markets of the world, with our manufacturers, we must admit raw mat erial free so that our artizins could afford to "compete with foreigners. That idea is proven to be untrue. Uur exports are greaier than ever before and increasing continually. The cry no is a variation of thoold tune. "If we Invade the markets of the world with our manufacturers we must buy in return or we cannot expect to export." The best answer to tnU It what we. are doing. Uur exports are increasing and our imports deoreHsing compared to what they were under the Wilson tariff act. There are thrae or foureolums of figures presented herewith that ought to settle the rnalter: " . The North Yamhill Ilecord seems to take kindly to what the Indepen dent said about the smoked meal trust but wants a way painted out ti suppress the trust. In the article the Independent pointed to a remedy but it doea not suit the Ilecord. The thing pointed out was an industrial remedy. The Ilecord will be satisfied with nothing but a political remedy, The suppression of the Portland meat trust is In the the hands of farmers and stockmen themselves. The farmers of North Yambil should ship a car load of meat per day, but It la safe to guess that there are not two car loads of meat now on hand In the whole valley, which being the fact, what an opportunity for form lug a meat trust! The Brs and English In South African rre facing- each other and snarling seen; Ingly each wating for au overt act. The Iloers to be fullv Drettarcd for the fray while their opponents are yet making hur ried preparations. The English will not on the dry, hot plains of South Africa find the same foe that Kl eh euer did on the Nile where the wild hordes charged en masse on to the Briton's machine guns. The mac hine irun will not be as effective against the civilized South African who will fight in open formation and as a sharp-shooter. The trans portation problem is bothering the llrltish as It did us last year. Hut the funny Dart is that England in burying canned beef in the open American market same as we did Unly Alger and Eagau are not the purchasing agents. Home months ago a number of firms In Portland formed themselves Into an organization and assumed the name of Philippine Trading Co., and sent an agent to Manila. This ajrent at once busied himself selling tha immBi handled by his firm in Portland. He did more lie agita tMl lb Drt lect of establishing a aaaaaisbia litw blwen Manila and Portland. At first the Manila pro- ale thought they muat go to S-attle, bat when the situation and connec tions were fully explained, Portland was selected for the American termi nus of the line. This fact was com municated to the Portland company la Saturday. The first Steamer will leave Portland in Hecrmber. This la the first regular line to be estab lajtrd between our new possessions aval the home country, and the Port heal peoaia an to be commended for ) - II teV matter.
