‘'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

republican war-horses bring about “har

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.

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

Saved by Grace Without Works !
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.
