American, southern. 1-io.mfKi.i 1 via Hawaii aud i This contrast In t-itat I made as result of th? difference in the length of the cahte links, as the greater the Ktretel. tin bearier and more costly tlie cable. Tlie, elements of repair aia of the natural ditticulties of fojr," Ice, and great depths are also to lie consid er-l. It is isdntet out that the North Pacific is not so stormy, cold, ami fog gy as the Norilt .Ubuitlc, anl tliat Ue worst fiSgs. which prevail south of tht Aleutian islands, would be avoided, as tlie -ab!e would hiss to the north of tlw-se.,;-: T'.j.r 1 YLv; . .; "i j liy. the northern ronte the different stretches ,are comparatively" sliort, none exceeding fCrfl miles, thus making repairs comparatively easy at any time. On the southern rotfte there are but four stretches, these being 2i8, ijT4, 2,oIG, and 'l,4W miles. The dcptli on this rmite is to be imrticularly con sidered, as it is very great, and so far the maximum depth from which a ca Lie has lut'D raistil is 2.700 failioms, and this is greatly excetnled In the Pa ific. On the contrary, the northern line, which lies along a gradually shelving const, would make it possible to keep a depth between TK) and l..") fathoms, the ; average not exceeding i.tnui fathoms. The deepest stretcu. touching 240 fathoms, is from Attu to the Asiatic mainland, and to avoid fhis tlie route has to run north of the Itnssian Commander islands. j Admitting that Mr. Ilales estimates nre orrect and that, a northern "cable tine might be constructed at less cost than a dire-t line from San Francisco to Manila, objection will no donbt lie general to snch a plan for the reason that the Alaskan Jine would bo but partly American. Stations on both Itnssian and Japanese territory would 1 inH-t'ssars- to its. inaintainance, while forjc,intnnnication' with Manila the present, Asiatie cables would 1h relic! umiii. As the necessity for quick and direct and wholly American comnitin- Jention with oiir new Asiatic iiosses- sions is admittHl, the line by. wayl of Hawaii and Huarn, which has been shown to lie entirely feasible, has ad vantages. .1, ; It Is a curious incident of the lcm oeratie convention that the free silver plank was carried lii the committee by tlie votes, of the delegates ; from the territories-r-Oklahoina, Indian Territo ry and Hawaii. Alaska voted against it. leaving a majority of two in the committee for 10 to "1. If either the Indians or the Hawaiians had voted the other way, the result would havgi leen a tie. So annexation may lie said to have sa veil the day for the sil ver pl.iuk. though it is understood that the Hawaiian delegates were not an nexationists, and though noli of the territories will take part in the elec tion. i ... ''' An (Hlitorial friend on tlie Orcgoniah 1.4 unduly worried over the Mid fate of Iloosevelt, Iss-ausc he was nominated for Yi-e rresideut, fearing that be will be swnlloweI up and forgotten. There is no danger. loisevelt will take the office tint of its obscuriiy, and lie will ls beard from nil the time up to 1!NM. and then he will lie the least dead of all the men liefore tlie coun try.

The needs of the countries to lie tapped call for them, j "A republic can have no colonies, proclaims the Baker City Iemocrat. But it can have territories and ours has- had In all -Its history, and with varying plans of government. It has them now, outside of its new possess ions, for Instance, Alaska, Indian Ter ritory and New Mexico.

THE It was in Kans:is that two tramps n-emtly made the mistake of calling at a farm eoudtieted by a woman and presenting aplea for something to eat and a pla Vleep" for the reason that in woik'was tot lie hal amFthey dUlu"t kmw, what was going to liecome of the "country.

'A .Chicago .later Ocean writer re marks that these , are consequently melancholy' days for tramps, especial ly in the agricultural states. :The tin can element of the present summer is engaged in doing nothing from choice, not necessity. To evade"- employment it Is corniielled.to take to the deep wosls or pursue unobserved paths far from the haunts of men and away from the click of rentiers and mowing machines. ; j - i ; The iKssibility of repetitions of the Kansas incident i fills it with, alarm.

The fertile and expansive liclds of Illinois Ibwa,' and Nebraska', "with their menace of wirk, lie in the 'way.' And It Is not work that this " particular section . of the army of the unemployed IS' seeking. The fact Ili'at even the Peerless now has a farm of his own and that there might lie working opportunities there Is a not her -detriment to the journey.
