They saw all the mate'rlal pa!cked up and loaded "and the horses and men assembled and away to the next town In three hours, v I J . . To see how near they could ;COme to the American - performance the Frenchmen took a crack artillery regl men and had 11 entrain, detrain, go Into camp, and break camp. The number of men and horses tq W han dled was practically the same, 'and the amount of material much less. Yet more time was consumed. Th. American nvinagArtT. had been Invited 'to watch and criticise this French mffltary performance, JA sten ographer was employed to go with them and take, down their re marks and suggestions. The! Ameri cans pohited out a number of ways In whlfh time might be -saved with-no loss of efficiency. They were officially thanked for their "assistance and their suggestions were embodied In' a. formal xeport to the Minister of War.- Thus It befell that 'American circus men, chasing- the ninjblW franc over France, have been Able to contribute to the advancement of" the mllit;iry .art In a' nation which long .held the fore- most place In that art. - j, i - ; PROPOSED TARIFF PLANK.

OREGON IS A GREAT COUNTRY. Oregonlans are Just .beginning to re-l all ze. that they live in a great country -one of the greatest in the world. , Its climate Is unsurpassed. ' Its valleys are gardens of productiveness and beauty Its mountains are among the grandest on the face of the earth. Its rivers and mountain streams are clear aa crystal and reflect the grandest sce"h-; f ry a. they roll down to the sunset sea. Its tfmber Is the largest, the most val uable and the most abundant of any equal af ea on the face of the earth and will supply the great markets in the United Ktates and In foreign lands folr a long time. Its mines of gold, silver, copper, cinnabar, nickel, iron and coal are rich and extensive. - It is far the best stock and dairy country In the United States. Cattle, horses; sheep and all kinds of domestic animals live on the ranges, winter and summer, without feed other than the grasses that grow without cultivation. The display of fine stock at the State Fair at Salem last week was wonderful. It was a world-beater. The samples 'of grains, vegetables, fruits, butter, cheese, honey,'-and everything necessary for human happiness, was of the best qual ity, Fruit of the -fluent quality can be grown In unlimited qunn titles. . With California on the south, which la too dry and too warm to be an ideal coun try, and with Washington,-British Col unibla and Alaska on the north, where the atmosphere is a Jlttle -too cool and damp, Oregon is the keystone -of the Pacific eortst and the fairest of lands.

"We therefore heartily commend the Dingley law and demand that when any of it's schedules are revised It shall be for the strengthening, rather than the weakening, of the Protective policy as expressed therein." t ? Herein is told the whole story of the operation and effect of Proteolion upon American labor, industry and business. It differs somewhat from certain" Tie publican Tariff , planks of recent ; atKp- tion. It embodies no apotogy. for, no abandment of, the principle and policy of Protection. On the contrary, It Is positive and affirmative. It says what It meatis that Protection Is the basis and foundation of prosperity, a doctrine to be adhered to and not departed from.
