JJilop potter and Pr. Rulus V. Clark
ul Detroit were among the sneakers at
the Episeopu! church congress at St.
Paul. pisho Potter, as is well known,
is An avowed anti-ex naiisinnUt, and lijs
addresses are listened to with tho ri
speet which his words always command.
He ia rejOTted H saying: "It Is possible
that a nation whu-h still preserves the
(orjps ot'demoeratic government may in
time subordinate them to methods of
jts administration which sooner or later
Will brijif! the suLstni!e of imperialism
along with thern." This is the .lunger
which he apparently apprehend in the
Philippines, where, he udds, America's
"tlrst word is subjection, its first de
mand, surrender, its first, second anil
third conditions are, 'We will recognize
nobody, we will treat with nobody, we
ttlnne will dictate all tins terms.' " Asau
hirurablfl alternative, he proposs that
"we submit to an international court,
representing the best wisdom of t)u best
peoples, the question of the present dis.
position and future administration of
the Philippines." Dr. Clark, on the
ether hand, insists that expansion "does
po rest without qualification upon the
principles of 'personal luVrt-. It rests
upon the principle of th largest gol to
the greatest number," a contention
which he confirms by citation from our
past history.
Evidently; everything is not seranely
pleasant for tho imperialistic, members
i.fthe Canadian cabinet. The Ilritish
government asked for a contingent of
GOO troops from Canada to aid the Eng
lish in South Africa, and the Canadian
itovernment was going to send 2,000, un
til MrTarU!, minister of public works,
threatened to resign'if such a force was
sent. Mr. Tarte declared that the par
ticipation of Canada in one of England's
foreign ,entnitglenienfs was a phase of
imperialism' which French Canadians
would not tolerate. A compromise was
reached fcnd Canada will semi 1 ,000 men.
The season for tree planting has again
arrived. Hood River fruit growers will
plant a good many apple trees this fall.
His good plan, when buying trees, to
go to the nursery and see them taken
fropi the ground see that they have
good roots. A two-year-old tree is best
to plant if it has good roots and is care
fully dug from the nursery rcny. A
yearling tree is more easily dug to save
all the roots, and for this reason it is
preferred by many to two-year-olds.
The British sustained a severe defeat
Jn a battle with the Pnprs at Ladysmith
lat Tuesday.' Two balu.iions of British
troops and a battery were lured to a
part of the field and captured after
being cut to pieces. 1-ossea on both
Bides were heavy. Tho situation looks
gloomy for the English and they may
have U. rutreat or surrender before re.
enforcements can reach them.; The
Boers are putting up a good fight.

Indiana was the great volunteer state
during the oivil war. It put 2Qf,000
men into the ..field, and it can lie said
that no other state in the Union spilled
so much blood and participated in so
many 'bloody engagements.?, Indiana's
war history is written in letters of crim
aop on the soil of seventeen states. It

lay down his life in that w ar a nicmber

Oregon, if, after investigation, they find
that such youth have not departed from
the paths of virtue. Mr. Gardner says
he wishes it distinctly understood that
this class of children does not embrace
the class known as fallen.girle.
The society is" maintained by state ana
county aid, by the inlsrest of a bequest
fund,' and bv voluntary contributions.
About one-half the expenses are paid by
the latter.
The superintendent while litre was
the guest of Capt. A. K. Blowers. He
further says that it has been stated by
business men of Hood River that a per
son has been canvassing for rnibrcrip
tions from time to time, and many pc.
pie here have been led to believe that it
was fur the Bvs nd liirls' Aid Society.
This is entirely wrong. Although the
society has taken many homeless or
abused children from this county, they
have never asked nor received one cent
from anv perwui in Hood River.
The Ki.cietv completely covers the
work of the rescue of children all over
the state of Oregon and never refuses to
cure for anv case reported und sent to
the Hoim.' No red tape is required ; to
know that a child is in need is milliciein
t nlitnin nilmiisioii to the Home. All
such eases should - lie reported to the
county judge or commissioners.

above, the society has under its care a

months. All the ulsive children are for
iiikiiition or indeuture. and any person
wiJiiiiK to obtain ono 4jf them should
address the superintendent of the Boys
and Girls' Aid Society at Portland.
Mr. Gardner would like to get the till
nils of the public schools interested in
the soeietv's children and on Thanks-
giving to bring to the school some small
article of provisions or cluthing, which,
after being gathered together, will be
forwarded bv the principal to the Home.
Thus a twofold object will be secured a
grand lesson of charity taught the chil

themselves.
Mr. Gardner w ill visit all towns be

of the society's wards are placed. The
society places on an average i!5 children
each month, or 300 a year.

The Unappreciated lieu.
There are many reasons why the hen
and not the eagle should be the national
bird. Among them ia the growing dis
content our beat citizens feel for the
eagle, w hich bird has never given thor
ough satisfaction, because of its low
down nature. The eagle is a cowardly
creature and never makes war except
upon weaker things.- It never earned
an honest dollar in its life, and its daily
food is stolen from some poor bird too
small and too weak to defend itself and
its property, says the Chicago News.
Moreover, the eagle swoops down
among children, lambs and other inno
cent things, and bears them to its home,
among the mountain crags. This alone
is sulhwont to oust it Ircm tne position
of U'ing the bird of .America and pre
vent its picture from continuing on our
dollars. The hen, however, is a sweet
tempered, hard working, productive
creature, She is identified with our
home life and our domestic and national
prosperity. She lays 1300,000,000 worth
of eggs every year, or four and a fraction
eggs for each individual in the land.
When the eagle is loafing around,
waiting to steal something to eat, the
modest hen is attending to business.
And after a lifo of activity, laying eggs,
cackling, and laying more eggs and
hatching little chicks, she gives up her
lifo that the American boarding house
may thrive and wax fat. How much
better tho hen than the bald-headed
eagle for cur national bird. As a just
recognition of her supremacy in the
money producing industries she should
displace the eagle. Tho domestic side
of her life -kmf-since endeared her to
every home in the Union. Calm, gentle,
somewhat coy, sno is, nevenneiess, a
strong, courageous, uncompromising foe
to all t hiit -tlio eagle ia. W e hope to see
her, visage' stamped in our moneys and
become-the national bird of freedom.
Wild -Oese'LoNt in a Storm.
The Baker City Republican tells of
the advent of the wild geese last, week
as follows :
It was evident that the geeso had
become lost in the storm w hile searching
for their feeding ground, aiid attracted
by the lights ot the brilliantly illumi
nated city, were unable to get away
from it, as a blue bird is fascinated by a
rattlesnake. Their wings soon packed
with the heavy snow.,.- and. exhausted
beyond endurance, they comineiiecd
dropping from the clouds into the street,
the noise of their squaking being almost
deafening.. Then commenced a wild
scramble, men and boys joined in the
sport. . Geese or brants . were picked up
on every side alive, and it was noticed
that amongst the game birds were all
kinds of birds known to Oregon, that
have been mixed up with the geese.
Boys went out on the hills and built
bonfires, Which attracted some of the
birds to them, and they secured a dozen
more that way. Others took their shot
guns and killed a large number.
. i r Sued .the County.
Henr'v Gardner, through his attor-
neys, Moore & 'Gavin, has begun an ac
tion for damages against Wasco county
for injuries sustained while traveling on
a county road near Fifteen Mile creek
last winter. In his complaint he al
leges that he was coming down a grade
on Dec. 21, 18'JS, with a loaded wagon,
when, because of the bad condition of
the road and tho ice that had accumu
lated tliervon, 'his team was, unable to
hold the 'i'wtigon'; that it went ctr tne
grade, and thereby he sustained injuries
that will be permanent. He therefore
demands damages in the sum of 0,500.
It will be remembered that iur. uartiner
and Mrs. Reese were coming to The
Dalles when the accident occurred, and
that 'rs. Reese was killed while Mr.
Gardner had, an arm broken and sus
tained other serious injuries. Moun
taineer.'
Taking; the Census.
Notwilhst i.ding the law, there were
many who seriously objected during the
last census to giving any information in
regard to their personal affairs, and in
many instances it was only with great
ditliculty that the de-aired facts were ob
tained. Some misguided individuals
barricaded their doors and treated the
census-takers in the light of villains w ho
were seeking to rob them of their pos
sessions, and not infrequently a poor
eeifsus taker (or ''enumerator, ' as he is
officially called) was hustled out-of-doors
by the indignant woman of the house,
because he had drtred to ask her how
old she was or whether she knew how to
write. This unwillingness to answer
questions would no doubt be overcome
if it were known that the replies are
intended only for official use in prepar
ing statistics and will never be given out
to "the public. In fact, the huvexpressly
provides that if any enumerator shall so
far forget his duty as to communicate to
any one except his superior officer any
information he obtains in the pcr-
fnrnmnre of his work he shall be sull
ied to a fine of five hundred dollars
The law is verv strict with reference to
the duties of the enumerators, for unless
this work is done properly and carefully
tViR centum fiffuren would be of little
rahin. ('onNemi.mtlv. overvone who
enters upon this important duty is given

' A ButtleScarrod Flag-.
The Wocdburn Independent is respon
sible for this story about the banner
that the Second Oregons carried to vic
tory in the Philippines:
The Second Oregon regiment flag was
in only one engagement, and that not a
serious one, at l'asig. In the march
through bush and in other battles the
emblem was not taken as it was con
sidered too much bother. Yet when the
flag w as turned over to Governor Geer in
Portland it was rent with bullets. Tat
tered and torn, it presented the appear-
anco of having gone tnrougn a ien
war. While civilians beheld the Stars
and Stripes in shreds, through tear be
dimmrd eyes, and shuddered at the ter
rible story without words, the returned
volunteer gazed in amazement at uiu
