ConcernnIng Pamir.

Considerable has been said in the cable
grams OF late about the performances Of the
Russians In country Of Central Asia called
Pamir. This is the shortest spelling of the
word, which appears in the Biographies also
as Pameer and Pamere. The pronunciation
Is the same In each case, as IL spelled spa
meer," the a being pronounced as In "far''
and the accent being placed upon the second
syllable. Pamir Is an extensive tableland In
Central Asia, so lofty that it is called by the
native inhabitants "the roof of the world
A part of the plateau is said to be 1s 900 feet
above the sea level. or about three times as
high as high as Katahdin. the highest land
In Maine. There are peaks in Pamir, how
ever, which rise far above the plateau even,
AS would seem to be very proper, this pla-
teau forms the central node, whence radiate
the principal mountain ranges of Asia. The
climate is almost arctlc.in its severity and the
region sparsely settled. 1t cannot be, then,
thatthe Russians or the English want Pamir
onaccount of its wealth or its fertility. Mel
Their would the sentimental consideration of
holding possession of 'the Roof of the
World" be of weight enough to imp Ell either
nation to struggle very hard for advantage
In Pamir. In fact, Pamir is generally re-
garded as under Russian influence, and if
Russia would content herself with what she
has got there would be no trouble. But the
very situation Of Pamir is such that its pos
session by an ambitious power may at any
time become menace to the peace of Asia
or Europe. Anyone iwho consults the map
of Asia, will find Pamir lying Just upon the
North side Of the Hindoo Koosh mountains
1t will thus be seen that Pamir is South of
Bokhara, upon which Russia laid her
hand long since, and north of India, which
has been England's for many years. II is
also west Of China and east of Afghanistan
1t will be seen that Pamir is the centre of
very sensitive territory, politically speaking.
Both Afghanistan and China are very ,sus-
picious Of Russian encroachments; and
England fears, not without reason, that she
may be called upon to defend India from the
Muscoyite yet. Pamir is neutral ground
where at any time the trouble may begin.
OF course the powers that would ultimately
meet would be England and Russia. At
ghanistan or China might be assailed first,
but England would be drawn into 1t soon as
the protector of the assailed territory. This
was the case when the Russians made their
entertainments upon the northern border Of
Afghanistan few years ago, territory, by
the way, not far distant from Pamir, as dis
lance goes in Asia.

The New York Times has taken up the
cudgel for the Argus on the tariff question,
and proceeds to attack the PRESS after this
fashion:
.".Protectionists admit" says the Portland Press
that at first the tariff causes higher prices" The
followers OF Mckinley were not making such adj
missions wear ago, after the enactment of the
new tariff law and during the campaign which
preceded the notable election Of last November
Those who asserted at that time that prices had
been increased, or were soon to be increased, by
the imposition Of higher tariff duties we're called
'liars" and "conspirators" and .'enemies of their
country's industries" by the Mckinley press
The Times mixes its facts badly in this
statement. The protectionists never dis
puted the fact that tariff may raise the
price OF commodity temporarily. The
Times's reference to year ago is
entirely away from the facts of the
case. The increase of prices last Novem-
Der was not legitimate effect of the
Mckinley bill, since the increases occurred
on articles irrespective Of whether the duties
had been increased. The INSCRIPTIONS i'm
porters Of New York city, who found thei
business interfered with by the administra
tive bill to prevent fraudulent undervalua
tions, took advantage of the extravagant sto
ries and expectations Of the times to advance
prices all along the line. Democratic news.
papers and the Times was undoubtedly
among them, recklessly spread the misrepre-
sentation that the Mckinley bill had in.
creased the duties on the majority of articles.
The truth was the reverse, that 1t had de-
creased duties to greater extent than it had
raised them. The Republican papers which
talked about ''liars" and 'conspirators''
last November were right. Ii prices had ad-
yanced last November only to the extent OF
the legitimate results of the higher duties OF
the Mckinley bill, no one in that campaign
would have thought anything about prices
as connected with the tariff. Every sensible
person understands this at the present time
Without doubt. the New York Times under
stands 1t, too.

The Argus, (which Is always seeming fraud,
appears to suspect that the Republican mem
bers of the Portland Board of Registration
are connecting a scheme to work the new
registry law for the benefit of the Republi-
can party. Now there is not the slightest
secret about what the Republican members
OF the Board are doing They have been
considering the best method of max
Ing up the voting lists, and we have no
doubt that the Democratic member of the
Board has been and is doing the same thing.
1t is proper and necessary subject for con-
sideration. 1t is highly proper subject,
too, for public consideration, and therefore
the public prints have been invited to discuss
1t. and have done so. We extend a cor.
dial invitation to the Argus to Join In the
discussion. The question is this: In what
way shall the new voting list which the new
law provides for be made up? Shall the old
list be taken a. basis and be corrected by
the Board, obtaining its information in any
wayit sees fit, shall house to house canvass
be made under the auspices of the Board, OF
shall citizens be Invited to appear before
the Board In person and register, the penalty
for neglect being loss of the voting privil.
egeP The PRESS has favored the last meth.
cd for the reason that it believes 1t would be
the fairest method. and give rise to less dis
satisfaction than any other We invite the
Argus to give its opinion on the subject. II
there Is anything unfair and Ubiquitous In
this plan our hundred eyed contemporary
will readily detect 1t.

denunciation promises little, for that has
been going on for many years. and the

General blanchard Dead.

General Albert G. Blanchard
died at his home in New Orleans
Sunday morning, aged eighty-one
years. He was a classmate Of Gen
erals Robert E. Lee, Albert Sidney
Johnston and other illustrious sol
diers, with whom he graduated in
1929. He was born in Charleston,
Mass, in 1910, and has been a res
ident of New Orleans for the past
fifty years, where he married Miss
Amelie Benarst DeLasale, of which
union seventeen children were born,
nine of whom and the mother sur
vive him.
He served in the United States
army until 1910, and, having attain
Yed the rank Of first lieutenant in
the Third Infantry, he resigned,
but re-enlisted and served through
out the Mexican war. At its close
Major Blanchard returned to this
city.

vile, shows that the wheat harvest
progressed as favorably during the
past week as the weather permit
ted. The yield promises to be
very large. Corn is in good con-
dition, growing well, but getting
very foul. Reports from the cot
ton crops are much more favorable
this week. The crop is now grow
ing well, owing to the warmth and
moisture, and bids fair, just now,
for an average yield. Being a
month late, this depends on very
late frost. The average area in
tobacco has been planted generally
throughout the tobacco district.
The condition Of this crop is ex-
cellent, though the crop is late.
