UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
In Forty TYears Will Extend From the
Pole to Venexuela,
Prof, F. W. Shepardson, Of the his
tory department ' at the University of
Qhicag yesterday predicted that, be
ginning with the annexation bf the new
republic of. Panama, the United States
would within forty years, acquire con
trol of the entire North American con
tinent. ;
; The revolution in Panama is of
much significance,'.' Professor Shepard
son told , bis class in American history.
"It insures the construction of the
Isthmian canal. There is small room to
doubt that: the water way Will be under
the, complete, control of the United
States, .This means that the entire ter
ritory of the new republic, will be eon
trolled, by! this country. Before 1910
Panama will probably be annexed to
the -United States.
"The annexation, of Panama will
open, the way: for a greater expansion
movement. From the annexation of the
isthmus to : the control of Coeta Rica, is
bat a. short step. American interests in
Nicaragua already are. asking, our gov
ernment to take a more active interest
in their welfare, and the annexation of
Nicaragua will follqw such action. Hoar
duras and Salvador cannot long hold
out against the pressure of events) and
over, these countries also will spread
the domain of the United States.
"The annexation of Central America
will make it possible to annex 'Mexico.
Such a step is not at all improbable or
impossible. , American : industry and
capital have already begun the con
quest of the big republic to the south
of us and polities can finish the work
which they are beginning.
"I venture to predict that by 1940
the terms ' United States and North
America'' wilt mean one and the same
thing. Canada will, enter the fold - by
voluntary secession, and all that will be
left on th continent will be the small
strip of territory known , as British
Honduras. It . ought not to be a very
difficult task to persuade Great Britain
to relinquish Its claim to this colony, as
by that time the mother country will

AFFECTS HOP VO TRACTS.
Schedule Pnt Into Effect by New
Law Increases Record
.' lng Fee. - ' .
The new; fee law which! puts into
effect a. new schedule of ' fees to be
charged by the county clerks and re
corders in all the counties in the state,
with the exception of Multnomah,- will
not materially affect the receipts in the
clerks' department, but will have a
tendency, to increase, the recorders'
fees. The 'principal ehange is in the
matter of jrecording deeds, mortgages,
hop contracts, etc., and will most ma
terially affect lengthy documents. Un
der the old law the sum of; 10 cents
for each folio of 100 words' for record
ing deeds, etc, was exacted, and an
additional sum of 5 cents each way
for indexing the. names of grantors and
grantees; or mortgagors and mort
gagees, as; the case happened to be.
Under the; new law no fee is eharged
for indexing names, but the sum of 25
cents per folio is eharged for recording
instruments. Consequently on a deed
or mortgage of ordinary length, the dif
ference will hardly be noticeable, but
Where there is a lengthy description of
property or in the. recording of hop
contracts, the increase in the fee will
amount te considerable. Hop con
tracts arej usually very lengthy docu
ments, and where a charge of $2 was

SOMETHINO ABOUT CHINA PHEAS-
-- rANT& J .
An Interesting Communication on an
Interesting Subject.
The Statesman's! history Of the fail
ure of the law" toj protect pheasants
brings tQmiml thercost paid . by an
English boy for the sight of pheasants
in the center of a game preserve.! The
writer and two comrades (who loved
the woods and streams) had scaled a
ten foot stone! wall between a public
road and the breeding ground of the
preserve, ' had passel a large dove cote
and a small fish - poud ' in woods nur
rounding an opening in . which the
pheasants snd erhaps other gains were
fed, when feeding was deemejl neces
sary by the game . keeier. From the
edge of the wood they looked at the
game in the; open, 'seatterediif groups
over an1 are of perhapr fivTae-res. It
may be they lingeied and commented
for five minutes. The sight remains
very distinct ou i the memory of one
those boys sixty-six years after the in
cident. The boys, knowing they were
liable to arrest for trespass, retired as
they had entered .the forbidden ground,
doing no: harm,! 'and without f being
themselves observed. ' But some weeks
after, the writer;' of this was asked by
uis lather if f he had been at such a
plaee at such a time; and was cooipelled;
to confess he thad. No explanations
were asked. J The boy.reoeivcd the last
whipping he received from his father
who, animated by a dutermination that
no trial for trespass should lender or
defeat his purpose of getting his fam
ily to America as a land of freedom
laid on the etripes heavier, he.-Ethought,
than the transgression called for. l'r
years i later, in this, land of! boasted
freedom the -boy made explanations,
and father and j son agreed tlyit the
game laws and even trespass laws of
England were too severe.
Sixty-three years after receiving, that
flogging for unlawfully seeing a. thing
of beauty, th now old-boy stoxI ailiiil
a group of Salem boys and showed them
a family of China pheasants feeding on
his own land. jThe desire fori personal
freedom was the Impelling' motive for
his being a land owner in Oregon and
is now impelling his pencil to write he
is glad the law inhibiting the! killing of
pheasants;, for three years- lacked one
yote of being a law. A goofd trespass
and a law giving a personal right for
care iu breeding game, to kill on the
land where bred seems preferable to
the "law that's no law." V . .
