Washington Letter.
(From Our Regular Correspondent).
Washington, Dec 24, l'JOO.
Nothing could be more complimentary
to the United States supreme court or
better demonstrate the absolute faith of
the people in the strength of our form of
government, than the current talk about
the decision of the supreme court, in the
cases involving the constitutional statue
of Porto Rico and the Philippines, one
of which was argued lust before the
court took holiday recess, and will be
decided in the near future. While
opinion is mnch divided as to what the
decision will be, it is unaniuions that it
will settle the much argued question.
In other words, that no matter whether
this decision shall uphold the construc
tion put upon the constitution hy the ad
ministration In its dealings with our
new possessions, or shall upset it and
make an entire reversal of policy neces
sary, it will be accepted as final by
evorybody. There have been decisions
of the supreme court that were unpopu
lar, but there has never been one that
was not accepted. This reflects as much
credit upon the good sense and patriotism
of the people, as upon the wisdom and
integrity of the men who have been
honored by membership of that court,
which has been called "The Greatest
Legal Tiibunal on earth." The second
case involving the same general question
has been get for argument on January
7th, after which the court will, it is ex
pected, consider the cases and prepare
its decision.
of
Southern Oregon Importing Butter.
It fa humiliating, or should be so, to
public spirited Oregonians to read that
butter brought from Minnesota ia sold
in large quantities: In Southern Oregon.
If the dairymen ot Minnesota, where
winter reigns about five mouths of the
year, can produce butter to export
profitably such a long distance, why Is
it that the farmers of Southern Oregon,
where winter is almost unknown, and
with pure water, Cue grasses, extensive
ranges, and everything, it would seem,
requisite, do not produce enough butter
for the towns and mining camps of that
part of the state? True, not all that
region is adapted to dairying, but large
spots of it certainly are, and enough of
them for dairies sufficient to supply
butter tor home consumption, at least.
Of course, in one sense, this is nobody's
business; nobody ia obliged to engage
in dairying and so save the state, or bis
part of it, from the humiliation of I in
porting butter; yet it is almost astonish
ing that at this late day such a condi
tion should exfst. From present indi
cations, it will not be long till imported
butter will lie a thing of the past, and
this product will be exported in large
quantities instead of imported. The
dairy industry is being enlarged and In
tensified in portions; of the Willamette
valley, and afier awhile it will spread
over and invade the valleys of Southern
Oregon. Telegram.

might be true and yot the senator in

worse than bad judgment. For instance,
a man whoso egotism is great enough,
and enotiem is a marked characteristic

into accepting an invitation to go on a
pleasure trip with some man whom he
believed to lie his personal admirer ami
