Tho country Is still bearing up fcravely over the news of Senator Al Irkh's coajing retirement. The only time a woman is proud of Iter age is when she gets over a hun dred. The mostenger of the SolIcillBt mayor Saldil of Milwaukee Is "re garded as conservative." Power and responsibility confer conservatism up. a most men who think. The effort of the Taft-Cannon-Aldrich Regulars to real tho "La Fol-lette-CuHimins-Beveridgo-Bristow in SBrxents out of the Republican party laeks very much liko an attempt of the tail to wag the dog.

Some others .do and never get over It. become still more obvious, as the trade of the orient de velops and the competition for that trade becomes more keen. The question, therefore, of sending the ships to the Pacific is one of serious consideration witn tne depart ment. The Pacific is just now .the field of political interest. The splendid isolation of the United States so far as the Atlantic is concerned does not apply to the Pacific. In the past the Atlantic coast was not likely to attract any fleets but those of merchantmen seeking the products which the United States had to offer. That condition no longer pre vails, and the United States, now overflowing with capital and bulging with the products of its fatcories, must seek out new markets in the awakening east. The complications that have arisen in the struggle with other nations are al ready disconcerting. Japan already has a strangle hold in Manchuria to the injury of American and other trade. There are the Philippines to look after. There will be ships needed to counterbalance the embryo navy now be ing constructed by Australia. Por these general reasons, not to mention others, it is very probable that the Pacific battleship fleet is only a fW years at most from realization. aye, Wortman aye, Eifort nyo Demmor aye..

Wealth was estimat ed in strings of shell money, like the is seen in Sam and Joe, brothers, nod respectively war chief and peaco chief of tho Rogue Rivera. How ever, it does not appear that tho du ties of tho two were in anv enso di- wompnm of eastern aborigines, but(vided, or that tho occurrence of war this money was here known as nlli- necessitated tho intermission of tho as-chick or ali-qua-chick.

Hence the monetary stand- sumed tho conduct of warfnro m ard of theso savages ,vas variable 1853, and possibly in 1851, though liko that of more civilized nations, hut was probably a source of less confusion and speculation. White deer skins and the scalps of red headed woodpeckers seem to have been articles of great estimation, possessing fictitious vnlues, depend iner upon the dictates of fashion. tho latter fact is not fully nscor tained. Tho Indians of Southeni Oregon and Northern California woro a filthy race, viewed from a Caucasian standpoint, hut probably did not sur pass other aborigines in thnt respect.

To he a chief among the Klamaths or Rogue Rivers presupposed tho possession of wealth. Power was not hereditary and the chief who bocame too old to govern was summarily de posed. La-lake, tho peaceable old chief of tho former tribo, was com pelled in his later years to give place to a younger man. Each village had a head man who might ho styled chief, who held his power in some way subordinate to tho main tribnl chiefs, but whoso actions in most ways were not regulated by the hem chief. A now settlement being form ed, a chief was elected who held his power until deposed by his subjects or until death removed him. Fre quontly from a multiplicity of can didates for tho chiofship two werj chosen, who together udministored tho affairs of tho tribe, the divided authority appearing to have been consistent with peace nnd friendli ness. Ono of tho two was usually styiea peaco cnior, tho other war out with them the dirt which encas cd their bodies when thoy wont in.
