VOORHIES, FRED MEJfcCH, Propr. & Mnob Editor ' Entered at the post office at (Irants !'", Oregon, as second-class mail matter. THURSDAY, MAY 30, 1901. Tennessee was risiled last week bjr flood ol rerjr unusual severity anil the resulting loss ol life and property makes it a calamity et importance. Some 14 lives are known to bsve been lost and $1,000,000 worth of property was destroyed. It is such fantastic climatic occurrences ss this in other places that gives reminders to the peo ple of the Pacific coast of their own climatic advantages. Senators Tillman and MiLsuriii, of South Carolina, have tendered their resignations, to take effect on November 15 at which time they will go before the people In a joint canvass to allow the people to decide between them at the primaiies. This position is the outcome of a spirited debate between the senators, who are determined opponents on many issues and they have o arranged that only one of them will continue In office afier next fall. It is very likely that Aguinaldo will visit the United mates neit It II lie hss informed General McArthur of such desire on his psrt and no objection is likely when the proper tune arrive', though It Is not deemed advisable at present to sulfur any laxity of restraint, his own safety making this course neces sary at the preterit time. He is reported as quits anxious to come to the United States and study our institutions and is advised to this course by Judge ArHano, one of the ablest of Filipinos. The acceptance of American institutions by Filipinos of ability Is a tr.ost encourag ing feature of the Philippine matter. One hundred and sixty glaea jars of large six and all of them filled with fruits of Oregon, were loaned to Califor nia for exhibition at Paris. They were asked for by the Californians, for the purpose of helping out their exhibit, and the Californians promised to let them csrry the Oregon labels. Of the 100 jars only thirteen were returned : the remainder "disapieared." Those that were returned bore labels as California fruits. The Oregon labels were turned to the wall at Psrli, and California labels pasted on the front of the jars. The few that were returnsd are now at Buffalo, where anybody who may desire can see the exposure of the California trick. Oregon ian . The United Htates supreme court, In a decision lately tendered, disposes of the much argued question as to whether or not the constitution follows the flag. Their decision is that it does not. The clause, "all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the United Htates" is held in the opinion of the court, not to apply to the territorial possessions, and the claim is put forth that the trainers of the constitution had no thought ef its application In that sense, but was Inwrted to allay the jealousies of the various states. The court went back to the beginning, when the constitution was framed and en deavored to ascertain the intent ol the founders ot the nation. President McKinlcy and party atarted on their homeward trip on Saturday. Mrs. McKinlcy was greatly improved and seemed elated at the thought of going home. All demonstra tion was avoided and though large crowds assembled they evinced a thoughtful consideration for the con dition ol the invalid and were commend ably quiet. McKinley's visit to ths Pacific coast has not been altogether joyful, but it can not be said to tie a failure. He has been brought into closer touch with the people, ss a man, and has made many Iriemls. His Isilh- lul devotion and kindness to his invalid wife lit I been productive ol a sentiment towsrd him ol warmheartedness that no amount ol executive ability could have produced. It is quite likely that the customary yacht race for the America cup will not materialise this year. Sir Thomas I. in ton, the nndiscouraged challenger built a new yacht, the Shamrock II, lor the purpose but the cralt seems not to have been altogether satisfactory and now it is so severely injured by a squall which came up suddenly.during a trial race that It is doubtful it it can be put in condition lor the supreme trial ol speed.

The old issues have bs come things ol the past, but the com mon hardships and suffering endured hive united the men In bonds ot brother hood that will endure as long as life War ia something that lias heretofore seemed a ueceseily. We live in hope that the time may come when all wars slisll cesse, lor war is too horrible to merit favorable couaideration by any people and it is only in desperate cases that it finds excuse tor occurrence.

Jenkins of M. K. church. A grsnd anthem was rendered by the choir, followed by a most excellent and appropriate sermon by Rev. C. W. Hays. Mr. Hays divided his discourse into to portions; the first, "Why Should We Honor the Soldier;" the second, "Our Dutiee and Responsibilities to the Soldier." The sermon was lull of good thoughts throughout and from among the many, the following were gleaned; Why honor the soldier more than the cititen? No man can be a true soldier who is not a good cititen. It ia not be cause he differs from the citixen, but because ha has added to his citizenship." Our heart goes out lo the people who have offered willingly to devote them selves to this portion ot citiseuship" "True soldiers reserve homage (or the citixen who stays at home."
