Many, as they read from day to
day the various dispatches and ac-
counts of bloody struggles away off
in heather land, sometimes pause
and soliloquize thus: "What do the
English want in the heart Of Egypt,
anyhow, or what business have the
French in China" just as people
used to ask themselves In 1877:
"What does Napoleon or Maximil-
lian want in Mexico?" When all
Europe bristles with bayonets, and
prepares for war upon the least prov
ocation, Americans cannot see the
cdsus 6elR and very properly in
quire: "What for? where is the
justification in spilling SO much Of
human blood?" But, as the poet
says, II those who declare war had to
do the fighting, too, the swords would
long, long ago have been beat into
plow shears, and spears into pruning
hooks, but the soldiers are Instructed
that their first and most paramount
duty is obedience, and hence they go
wherever sent, fight everybody and
everything they are told to fight,
make forced marches, live on half
rations, go bare footed IL required,
and suffer all sorts of privation, not
that the people whom they fight
have ever wronged or injured them
in the least, hut because they are
commanded to go forward and fire,
cut, thrust, just as a man ~oul1set-
a mastifr on some dumb brute and
say to him: "Sick'emp But why
are the English in Egypt, or the
French in China? That's the ques-
tion. Years ago, the Khedive of
Egypt borrowed an immense amount
of money, giving bonds for security.
These bonds fell, finally, into the
hands of England, and seeing no
show for the redemption OF said
bonds, she established collecting
bureaus all over the country and col
lected taxes by the consent Of the
Khedive. The people soon mur-
INJURED. Then there came a new
prophet, who raised an army to ex-
pei the foreign intruder, and now all
Egypt is in arms and blood flows like
water. The Chinese war was caused
by China trying to swallow up an
Asiatic province absolutely, and as
France had an eye on the same
stretch OF territory, they protested
with cannon balls, fire and swords,
and kindled a war which may last
all summer. But all these CORY con-
flicts are not to save nations honor,
nor to chastize an aggressive tribe,
or resent an insult offered, but when
simmered down, 1t proves nothing
else on the part of England and
France but war Of conquest of more
territory. A pretext was sought and
readily found, but we pity the poor
soldiers, who are sent away from
their own native home to die in
foreign land and return no more;
but such is greed, prevalent especial
ly among civilized nations; yet at
what fearful cost Of life Is the greed
of some nations appeased.-EE.

The new boat that the contracting
company proposes to pnt on the Col
umbia river will be a fine piece Of
workmanship, and carrier equal to
any Of the size now plying on the
waters Of that stream. The hull and
wood work was constructed in Port
land, and arrived in sections by rail
Wednesday, and is being rapidly
loaded upon wagons and shipped for
ward to its destination at the Little
Dalles, where a force Of carpenters
will grab hold'and stick the pieces
together in short order. The boiler
weighs all the way fromIeight to ten
tons, and will require great labor to
transport it overland to the COlum-
bia. Mr.. Mccartney will superintend
the removal in person, and 1t will be
an undertaking many would shrink
from. The truck upon which the
boiler is loaded is an immense
piece OF furniture in itself. 1t
has large iron-bound wooden wheels,
surmounted by a solid piece OF wood
work upon which the heavy weight
rests. Eighteen oxen will be used
to prOpel this vehicle and the move
ment must necessarily be very slow.
The boat, when completed, will be
14O feet in length with 2s feet beam,
with It carrying capacity Of $50 tons
dead weight. Great care will be
taken in its construction, and it will
be a thing of beauty as well as Of
utility. The steamer will be named
1.-THE Kootenai," a very appropria te
appellation. There is no telling just
when the steamer will be ready for
use, but the work will be pushed
ahead with the utmost speed COM
patible with good workmanship.
Several wagon loads of material
started north to-day.

CLEVELAND was inaugurated pres
ident Wednesday, and now the cUun-
try sails along under a democratic
administration for the first time in
twenty-five years. The opening is
a good one to sling ink upon the
great achievements Of the republican
power during quarter Of a century
reign, and the dangers that a good
republican conjures up that will over
take the country by a change, but we
will refrain. The fact is we don't
feel like saying much. 1t is an ex-
perience that we are not used to. 1t
looks wrong to us. AS nature has
undergone no convulsion, and
as we are all Americans together, II
is very probable that the change Of
party presidents will not affect the
general veal of the country. wish
ing Mr.. Cleveland fortunate term
OF Office, we are willing to give way
to the majority, living on to hope for
better luck next time.

have only been used for two years, a
fact with which that sheet Is per-
