ATHENA, MAY 27, 1898.
The Scientific American has
quite an exhaustive article com
paring .the navy of the United
States with that of Spain. In the
course of the article it says: "In
battleships we have five times the
displacement, higher average
speed, ten times the number of
guns, and nearly four times the
energy of gun fire. In cruisers we
have over 2000 tons more displace
ment, slightly higher average
speed, 40 per cent moro guns, aud
over 180,000 foot-tons greater
energy of gun fire. It is only in
torpedo boats that Spain is strong
er, having double the displace
ment, 2 knots greater average
6peed, more and heavier euns, and
seven or eight times the energy of
gun fire, Tho greatly superior
gun fire of the torpedo boats is due
to the fact that most are torpedo
boat destroyers, and carry heavy
batteries for the express purpose
of sinking the enemy's , torpedo
boats. Spain has absolutely noth
ing to oppose to our . monitor, and
if she wishes to releaso her bo
leaguered army, she must meet
and break through a line of battle
which will include these powerful
ships'
The Oakesdale Sun states that
farmers residing, between that
city and Colfax have petitioned
the Northern Pacific railway fur
tho construction of a line between
the two points to afford them a
better market for their grain.
Right-of-way has been gi anted and
it is understood that tho Northern
Pacific is favorably considering
the proposition.' The line for
which a preliminary' survey was
once made, would run from Oakes-

house and west of Steptoo Rutte
i n if .1 it
to v,ouax, passing inrougu a rich
agricultural country, capable of
producing an immense quantity of
grain, but badly handicapped by
rjcing lemoto from railroad con
nections. If you are a democrat, a freo
silver republican or a popalist,
according to Mr. Charles II. Dodd,
of .Portland, Multnomah county,
Oregon, you aro a traitor to your
country and disloyal -to tho flag of
the United States, all because the
union party platform, through
carelessness on the part of thos
who drew it up, omits a Cu
ban plank. Mr. Charles II. Dodd,
of Portland, Multnomah sounty,
Oregon, is considered an able
speaker by the republicans and
they place much confidence in
what he tells them. At least they
profess to. ,
The present apparently unfriend
ly attitude of tho French in furn
ishing coal to tho Spanish navy
may possibly be explained by the
suggestion that living, as they are,
side kby eidc, their sympathies
naturally would be with Spain,
and another and more material
reason, that the French own
hundreds of millions of Spanish
bonds. This unfriendly act of the
French will doubtless form a very
interesting chapter in diplomatic
correspondence after tho Spaniards
have been disposed of by Admiral
Sampson,
Tho success of the Oregou dis
play at tho Columbia Fair at
Chicago will bo repeated on a far
more comprehensive scale at
the Trans-MiBsissipni ExDosilion.
which opens in June. The state
commissioners appointed by Gov
emor Lou?, having in charce the
work of preparation have gone
actively to) work and not a day has
been , lost. Funds aro pledged
there is over G,000 feet of space
of the department buildings at the
exposition, and everything is pro
gressing toward a successful end.
The old saying that every dog
hart his day ia exemplified at the
present time in the ca3e of the
farmers of the Pacific Northwest.
Three years ago tbe farmers of
this section produced nothing that
would sell for '.a profitable figure
but today there is scarcely an
article they produce but wbat
brings gilt-edged prices, and the
farmer's occupation from being an
exceedingly profitless one has be
come the most remunerative call
ing in the country.
The office of superintendent of
public instruction is, or should be,
nonpolitical, but there is a matter
in connection with this office that
should be considered. That is,
shall the publications of the Am
erican Book Co. be fastened upon
the school patrons of Oregon again
at an advance of what similar
books are supplied to Washington
and Idaho? W. W. Harrah, the
union candidate, will, if elected,
guard the interests of the schoo
patroiiB.
Tho United States is now ship
ping steel rails to Russia as well
as to Australia. A recent an
nouncement from Australia shows
that American bidders were suc
cessful in obtaining a contract for
the delivery of a large lot of steel
rails for use in that country even
against bids coming from England
and Germany, and now comes re
ports that the new Siberian rail
road is to be metalled with Ameri
can steel.
Charles Emory Smith, of Phil
adelphia, is not tho first news
paper man to become postmaster
general. Benjamin Franklin, the
first man to occupy that position,
belonged to tho grand army of
writers. Amos Kendall left an
editoral desk to become post
master general in Van Buren's
cabinet. Montgomery Blair,
Lincoln's postmaster-general, was
an editor, and Thomas L. James
began life as a newspaper man."
For the edification of our friend
of the Tribune, we will admit that
while we like mince pies, it has
been several moons since we were
hit in the head with a sour apple
cocktail. The stock business
might prove profitable, but what
would our "model country paper"
do without us.
All the talk now is war. And
there will be a battle of stuffed
clubs if the country punsters don't
stop their work on the name of
Commodore Dewey. In other
words the populace won't "Dewey"
a thing to them. Ex.
The political pot has not yet
simmered, so far this year, with
the intensity characteristic of
former campaigns. But it is hard
to tell what's coming.
Cavite is pronounced Ca vce-tay,
with tho accent on the vco, but
Dewey's fighters rechristened it
Dennis with the accent on the
eight-inch guns.
