In answer to the Spanish overtures fur peace President McKinley and his uvbinet demand first, that Cuba thall lie free; second, that Porto Rico be ceded to the United States; thjrd, tbat one of the Ladroue islands be ceded for a coaling Malum; fourth, that all Span ish military forces In the West Indies be immediately withdrawn. In regard to the Philippines, the cabinet agreed to leave the disposition to ba mode of them to a joinr commission of Amer icans and Spaniards. Only one mem lierof the cabinet is said to have been in fuvor of holding the Philippines. The president evidently does not favor holding anything more iu-the Philip pines than a coaling station, with priv ileges of trade with the islands to be ngreed npon by the ..commissioners. The senate will have to be called to gether, to ratify the treaty of peace, otherwise the negotiations would soon be closed in a manner honorable, and we believe acceptable to a large major ity of the American people. The fact that every suggestion the president has made in the prosecution of the warias proved to be right gives assurance that lie can be trusted in the peace negotia tions. Let us have peace; so that our soldier boys can return home. .. -C We hear too much iu these days about "prosperity," as though material welfare and larger cash profits were the most important things in life. Thej are not to be despised, but how rich life may be without either of- them! It is not how much money one piles up, but how much pleasure he gets and gives iu this world, that really adds to the sum of human happiness. We know many a furmeis' family who, though poor in purse, are wealthy ,. in the en joyment of hosts of friends and happy wlth'a health and zest for life that many a millionaire envies., The "touch of sympathy that makes the whole world kin," is common among our rural people, and creates a neigh borliness that . town folk know not of. It is well to keep these thoughts in mind, and for each of us to try to do our pari to make our own little world the better, instead of becoming wholly interested in crops, prices, money and individual or national expansion. Farm and Home. Last Monday, August 1st, a change of olticials was made in The Dalles land otlice. Mr- Jas. F. Moore as reg ister and Mr. W. H. Biggs as receiver gave place to the new olticials; Jay P. Lucas and Otis Patterson. The out going officials have served long and faithfully, and patrons of the office will regret their going, but when they meet with their successors (hey will fiud just ns gentlemanly and genial men to do business with. A soldier, in a Massachusetts regi ment died the other day in Cuba from homesickness. This is a disease that often kills when soldiers are af flicted. During our civil war when the boys became sick and could think and talk of nothing but home, the only sure cure was a furlough. ' Admiral Dewey says it will require 150,000 troops to subdue the Philippine islands. The Paci tic coast states alone could send that many jingoes who are liilin' over with patriotism and would enlist to a man rather than see one foot of captured territory given up. Senatorial courtesy will require that haste be made slowly in ratifying a treaty of peace. .- There may be thhe enough yet to add two more senatorial votes for imperialism by the admission ot Hawaii. Yiento Items. The Viento Sunday-school will pia nie next Sunday. Mr. Hale, of the contract firm of Hale & Smith, paid off his men last Friday and moved camp to Wyeth. CM.

The Oregon Lumber Col employs a large force of men. One hundred and 4 fifty carloads of lumber were shipped : from Viento last month. S..W. Currau and D. D.

The ladies sold ice cream and cake and lemenade, the proceeds going to the hospital fund tor the Oregon boys in the Philippines. The HV;od Stiver brass baud was present Giid playea patriotic airs. iion. vv. v. Watsod, chairman of the evening.witb appropriate remarks introduced the various speakers. Rey. J.- T. -Merrill responded to repeated calls of his name and in a short talk expressed the pat riotic sentiments of those around him by instilling a feeling of pride that made them glad to know that they were Americans. Dr. W. L. Adams then followed with a lengthy address in which he spoke for America's new venture and policy of annexation, de nominating those opposed to territorial expansion over the islands of the sea as "copperheads." He began by telling of the respect shown him while on a trip to South America years ago. just because he was an American. Then to show how small we were he com pared our world to the planet Jupiter, saying that, if things were proportion ately greater on that globe, women there must be 10,000 feet tall. As con sidered by some, he said, the Pope of Rome has as. great power as any one person in the world; but suppose by some mea'is he fell from the earth and lauded iu a flower twrden of one of t he women of Jupiter, he would be picked up by the point ot a pin and exhibited as the latest thing iu a tumble bug. We must expand, lie said. We have been growing ever since our country comprised hut a narrow strip along the Atlantic seaboard, and with every new growth of our nation there was a party in opposition; but Miese parties in op position to territorial expansion were forced to meet the Inevitable and suc cumb to the destiny of the republic. Such is the fate in store for the copper heads of today. The English language is fast becoming the language of the civilized world, aud it is but fitting i hat we, the most enterprising people of the English-speaking race; should subjugate the rest of the world as a duty to humanity. He then dwelt on the cruelties practiced by the early Spanish couquerors, Pizarro and Cor tez, upon the Incas and the Aztecs. These and many others are examples of Spanish cruelty, . the penalty for which is now falling upon the head of dying Spain. Mr. M., P. Isenberg then followed, taking up and pursuing the same theme.- The band discoursed more music and everybody ate ice cream and cake, that Oregon troops at the front might be provided with comforts and luxuries not usually provided for by army hosoltals in the Held. The receipts of the evening amount ed to $25.70. : Leasing the Deschutes. The question of leasing the Deschutes has again been brought up. We sup posed that question had been settled in Crook county. A proposition to lease the Deschutes, provided the county would give them a franchise, was made several years ago and the people so uni versally condemned the measure that our county court refused to grant a lease. Now comes a corporation from Sher man county and asks for a franchise of the Deschutes river. Sherman county has given her consent. We have not heard of the result in Wasco county. Iu Crook county no action has been taken for the simrile reason no petition has been presented toVhe county court asking ror sucn a lease, lr we are not mistaken the only proposition in refer ence to leasing the Deschutes was a let ter written by one of the county com- missioneers or wasco county to judge Wills stating a proposition bad been presented to the county court of Wasco "and if he would just come down they would talk the matter over." Judge Wills very promptly and pertinently replied that he did business at the court house at Prinevilleand any matter per taining to the leasing of the river u i i. - , t. wouiu nave to ue preseuieu in lue reg ular order. We are in favor of protecting all kinds of business but we are not in fa vor of giving any man or set of men a monopoly in any kind of business. Competition is the only remedv that the people have against corporations and while the waters of the Deschutes flow let them be free for the use of whomsoever desires to use them. The gentlemen who compose N this company are no doubt business men and would do a legitimate business, but we are opposed to the principle of giv ing one man or set of men an exclusive control of any ot our waterways, and we hope that our county court will promptly "set. down" on the measure, if It should ever come before them.

Following Is a poem written by Sam Simp son, October 28, 1808, in honor of, the launch ing of the battleship Oregon from the yards of the Union iron works.San Francisco. Couched in the words of the classics, and breathing a forecast of the grand work of this, the battle ship, which is our navy's pride and the world's wonder, it is most fitting to reproduce the words as aptly written by Mr. Simpson.
