F red C. Maker, publisher. ‘'Harmony !” Rats. There’s a big scramble tu get in State Chairman Frank C. Baker's “harmony” republican band wagon. Foremost of whom can be found the “knifers,’’ the “scratchers.” the “knockers,” the “dis gruntled,” republicans who used the party for private gain, and when they failed in this turned “mugwumps” and defeated party candidates. We arc not in favor of “harmonizing,” for the rea son if the nominations at the next elec tion is not carried in the interest of those who want to control the republican party, the game is up and they will re sort to the “knife.” It is only a question of a short time, however, before party principles will prevail, for the rank and file of the republican party can see that it is those who have not been able to get at the political pie counter who have been dragging the party down to defeat. The republican pa^ty of Oregon will “harmonize” itself if the leaders will allow rt, but it will never “harmonize” with men who claim to be republicans and then vote for democratic candidates a id democratic principles. And neither w II Chairman "Baker’s love feast of republican war-horses bring about “har mony/’ and for the additional reason that the Oregon mossback politicians idea of politics is to rule or ruin the re publican party. Stop Your “Beefing.” Quite a number of the country news pa|>ers are “beefing’’ on account of the Lewis and Clark fair taking so many persons from the country districts, who spend large sums of money getting to and while in Portland, thus depriving the country towns of a large amount of money and business. That we are ready to admit is true, but it is an exceedingly narrow view to take, especially when some of the country newspapers, out of jealousy perhaps, call it a Portland fair. It is nothing of the kind. The fair will be the means of bringing many thousand new settlers into Oregon, and we do not fear contradiction when we say that eventu illy every county in the state will be increased in population as a result of the fair and every town as well will be benefited with increased business. This is no time to show a narrow disposition and to keep “beefing” about Portland, for eyerv effort that is made to increase the population of Oregon should receive the plaudits of the country press, and Portland is descrying of praise, and to prove that the people of Oregon are highly pleased with the fair they are fl »eking to Portland and having a good time. There is no county in Oregon that is more isolated than Tillamook, with- out railroad connection ami often cut off for weeks from transportation facilities, yet for all that we expect to see quite a few new settlers locate in Tillamook ns a result of the fair. We have plenty ol room to complain that thousands of vis- itors have come to Oregon, but they had not an opportunity to see the garden spot of the state because Portland has not reached out and given Tillamook a railroad. We do not despair, however, f *r as the Lewis and Clark fair will be the means ol bringing lliotisai.ds of new settlers into Oregon, and with them will come increased activity in all industrial lines, it may be that Tillamook county, | so long bottled up and with inestimable timber and other resources, will partici- p ite in the increased business and indus trial activity that will prevail in Oregon for the next few years as a result of the ' Lewis and Clark fair America in Asia Portsmouth’s peace is an American victory, and its effects will quickly be shown by an extension of our influence mid trade in Asia. True, Chinn has raised the bars against us at Shanghai She has also bought, at an advance over the cost price, J. Pierpoint Mor- g in's Hankow railway. Morgan makes a little money by giving up the road, but he might have made more if lie had held on to it for a few years. China was | noxious to control the road, however, mid Morgan let her have it. On the surface of things this looks like a slap in the face for the United States In reality it affects Europe as well as us. Many European capitalists were in the sytuli * cate which was building the road, King Leopold of Belgium was one of them Leopold and most of the other Euro, peaus wanted Morgan to retain the property and run it, hut he thought that under the circumstances it would be l»et- ter to get out and China gets the road back. But the Chinese situation is not as bad for the United States as it looks We make large gains in our exports to : China in the fiscal vear 1995. as com- p ired with 1904. During part of this* f year the Shanghai boycott was tech mcally or actually in force. There nre ' indications now that the interdict is go. iug to he lilted. It is pretty safe to as sume that our exports to China lor the fiscal year 1900, two months of which h ive already expired, will '»e larger than | they were in 1904, although possibly [ thev iiiav fall below the 1905 level Our trade with the big empire is bound to grow. We can furnish, nt lower prices! thin she can get them elsewhere, the things which Chinn needs Chinese con- sumers have found this out since the ( boycott began. In the trade of China, aud also in that of Japan, we have ad vantages, physical and economic, over Europe. China will soon have to adopt the gold standard. Japan will constrain her to do this. It is to the United States that China will have to look Jor the greater part of the gold with which to make the change. Xlanchura and Korea, under Japanese auspices, will furnish a steadly and rapidly broadening field for Ameiican goods. The open door in both localitits will be open particular ly wide for American commodities. Japan as well as China, will want United States aid. Already Japan is turning to Wall street for cash. Denied the indemnity from Russia which she looked for. she must get from other sources a supply of money to help repair war’s wastes and to assist in the read justment and extension of her industries which peace necessitates. We have al ready furnished a large part of the cash which Japan has borrowed from the be ginning of the w ar. In inducing them to make peace we have rendered a supreme service to both Japan and Rus sia. Russia is looking to American bank, ers for it. For Russia the cost of the war has been heavy, and theexpenditure is far from being ended. Her industries hav** been dislocated by the conflict, and and she will be called upon by her re verses to strengthen herself in the part of Asia which remains to her. The de velopment of Siberia, long interrupted, will now be prosecuted, and in this there will be a chance for a large extension ol American trade. That decent respect for the opinions of mankind which the Unit ed States urged on Russia previous to the war, but which Russia in her pride rejected, will now have claims which she can not afford to disregard. With Japan. China and Russia, American influence will be materially extended by the peace of Portsmouth. That dream of Benton, Steward and other old time seers of American social and commercial dom i nance in Asia is immeasurable nearer realization now than it seemed to be just before the beginning and just before the end of the conflict which we have happily brought to a close. How Boys and Girls are Lost. The law that forbids minors to enter or loiter about saloons is one that, for the honor and decency of the city, should be rigidly enforced. It may be well to ray, however, that its enforce ment should not be left entirely to the police, nor yet to philanthropic soci eties. Parents have an obligation here that should not be ignored. Those girls who transgress this law are said by Mrs. Baldwin, manager of the Travelers* Aid Society in this citv, to come mainly from the middle class of families in the suburbs. They visit dance,halls in groups of three or four—sham protec tion for each other—dance with strang ers, and go out at intervals, presum ably fi r “refreshments.’’ It passes comprehension that decent, orderly fathers and mothers permit their young daughters to go out in this way seeking “fun’’ themselves meanwhile go ing to bed end to sleep and taking no note of the time at which the girls come home. Girls exposed to temptations and forming associations of this char acter cannot be kept pure in body and mind by law. Police vigilance, however active, can ill supply the lack of parental prudence in the manageineut and con trol of boys and girls.—Oregonian. “Scratch a Russian and find a Tartar.’* When the Tartar scratches the Russian there is nothing found but the remains. * M * Some northwest Missourians have been buying phantom lots in a phantom Oklahoma town.

HEADQUARTERS FOR Ü 51 & $ -' E sopcs , N. Y., Sept 17.—Ex Judge Alton B .Parker, last year the Demo cratic candidate for President of the I ni ted States, referred to the charges made by him in the Presidential campaign last Fall that corruption funds were being used in aid of the Republican campaign. To a correspondent of the Associated Press, who called at Rosemont. Judge Parker's home, and asked him it he had anything to say in relation to the state ment made by Vice President George W. Perkins, of the New York Life Insurance wMíiüSMNfly Company, before the legislative commit tee investigating the insurance business, to the effect that President John A Mc Call, of that company, had caused a con- tribution of $50,000 to be made last year to the Republican National cam paign fund, Judge Parker said : “Yes, I lielieve I ought to say. now that there is no political excitement to attract the public attention, that the ¿4 president of the New York Life was not the only subscriber. The officers ol the other great life insurance companies, such as the Equitable and the Mutual, also contributed from the policy-holders' funds for tl.e campaign purposes last year. “What has been proved in the case of Most the New York ¡Life will probably be proved in the other cases. The facts ex V. V ist, and honest aud able counsel, backed by an honest committee, will undoubt edly briiiglthem out for tile public good.

TO THE EDITOR TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. Eph., 2—8-9 For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not ol yourselves; it is the gift of God : Not of works, lest any man should boast. The Independent church takes this side of the question decidedly. What is the use of having a Savior if we can't trust him to save? We look to Christ for salvation. He satisfies our obligations. We rest in him. We were lost by the first man Adam, and redeemed by the second Adam, Jesus Christ, while he was here on earth. Instead of praying for the salva tion of sinners it is time to rejoice that we are saved. God is reconciled to us through Christ, he is our mediator. John, 3 36. He that believeth on the son hath everlasting life. Faith in Christ is the issue of Christianity. The Jews rejected him on a plea of works. Rom., 4, 5 to 6 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted fur righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom G«>d iniputeth righteousness without works. Every rule lias its exceptions. Christ said the cup of cold water would not lose its re ward. lames says that if a brother or sister be naked that faith without the works does not cover them. People who make a plea of works are not noted for the cup of cold water or of clothing the naked or feeding the hungry. They seek a reward for religious lites and ceremonies, the keeping of days and customs. It is easy to tell a man what he owes God because it is popular, but the truth is that all our indebtedness has been paid and we are free. There is no dis tinction at the cross. As the rain falls on the just and unjust alike so the bless ing of a crucified Saviour is alike to all. What we need is to be attracted to Christ on the cross ns were the people to the serpent in the wilderness. It is look and live. Faith in Christ satisfies the soul, just as a good meal docs the body. The world wants to make the distinction between the good and the bad, but God places it between the be- liever and unbeliever. God gave his son to complete the work of salvation. It is a free solution not obtained by works. 1 he same bible that other churches quote to sustain the doctrine of salva tion by good works is authority for salvation by grace through faith. J. C.
