TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, MAY 18 Cbe filiamosi Ijrabligbt Fruii <’ Baker. Publisher. Japan’s Monroe Doctrine. The encroachment of Russia on Japan has been driven back at great cost on land, but now takes the form of a hostile armada of over forty vessels, which has traversed half the world to threaten Japan within a short distance of its coasts. The spectacle shows how necessary it is to make provision against aggressive powers that, though thousands of miles away, use their strength to seize fresh territory for purposes of aggrandizement. An en emy of great resources has been at the doors of Japan for years, and there is no way to draw the line against it except by force of arms. Probably Ja pan saw the trouble ahead when it fought China and captured Port Ar thur years ago. it was deprived of its victory by a coalition of European na tions, chief among which was Russia, which then proceeded to appropriate Port Arthur for itself. It is far better to assert a Monroe doctrine before the enemy is at vour gates and its big fleet within striking distance of your coast. Japan's per formance in driving back the threat has been little short of wonderful, but the menace returns again and again Precisely such things would happen in the Western hemisphere if the United Stales had not taken a firm attitude. There is no telling what future com bination may be made against this country, with no more reason than that behind the policy of Russia, and its silent partner or partners, in the East. I he lesson is one for the United States to gravely consider in connec tion with maintaining its navy in a state of constant defensive efficiency. I I - -, ■ ■ ■ ! An Inevitable Failure. I The situation in Chicago is less tur bulent, and the country would be glad to hear of a restoration of public order mid the complete supremacy of the law. Day after day, for weeks, the dispatches from tint*. city have been oc cupied with the long story of deeds of violence and defiance of the laws framed to be observed by all for the protection of nil. What was originally called t strike became a continued scene of riotous conduct Comparatively few persons know all the points connected with the strike, or have been able to form a complete opinion of its merits. They have been reading about assaults and destruction of property, and look ing over casualty lists. Wonder has been excited by the slowness of the Chicago municipal authorities tn act. Claiming to have the situation in hand, they vet insufficiently tried to con trol it. Certain failure was ahead for the strike because it became mixed up with ruffianism and other crimes, Perhaps relatively few of the strikers took part in the disorder, or favored its continu ance, but the rowdyism occupied the front of the stage, and put the other features of the matter in the back ground. Even when the authorities of a city fall short in their duty, playing a demagogic part, the sober common sense of the |ieople asserts itself. Busi ness must go on, tor it is the life blood of a community. The law-abiding must repress lawbreaking, or chaos is at the door Chicago's long outbreak, in its results, teaches a lesson that is not new by any means. Strikes with violence are the way to lose. Evil-dis posed ¡tersons not concerned seize them iin an opportunity tor lawlessness. They are a foolish error that retards the tight settlement of labor questions. No country in recent years has sin pas sed Germany in business advancement. Its stcadlast policy of a protective tarift is one reason for its rapid growth in commerce and manufactures, but there arc other underlying causes at work that may well arrest the attention of other countries that hope to cut a large figure in foreign trade. Germany has built up an unequal system of edu eating voting men to push the sale of German goods in distant lands. This training is conducted with great thor oughness. Boards of trade in Germany take an active .interest in commercial schools ami 145 of the boards encourage the work by offering prizes and assisting in other practical measures. The young men who take the course exjiect it to |ead to a lite occupation, with opportun ities eventually to become partners in the houses they serve. ;Lcctures are provided for ambitious minor employes in the extensive exporting u incrius.

( name on application ) HIGHEST mmwiws FUR, 1904. The movement, for pure food is un doubtedly making progress. The most recent evidence of this is furnished by the action of the packers of canned goods, whose national association at its late meeting took a decided stand in favor of omitting the use of any article as a preservative that has been passed unfa- vorable by the government. All the compounds which enter the preservation of canned goods are not harmful; but some of them unquestionably are. The association of packers has for its object prevention of the use of preservatives in anv form, considering this possible, and it especially deprecates the use of chemi, cals.
