TRADE WITH ASIA.
The struggle to Obtain it will be Between
England and Our Pacific Coast
Senator Dolph IN the June Forum.

The commercial outlook of Oregon is
westward. 1t is nearer by the breadth of
a continent to the markets of the old East
and of the Pacific islands than are the At
lantic ports. No just estimate can be
placed upon the future volume and value
of the trade with Asia. No one nation
can control it, but the struggle to possess
1t will be mainly between England and
our Pacific coast states. British statesmen.
with proyerblal sagaclty, foresaw this
struggle, and it was not the result of ac-
cident that in settling the Oregon bound
airy we lost the island of Vancouver and
half of Puget Sound In this struggle
the new northwest will have an advantage
over California in distance, and in the fact
that the ocean stream which rises off the
coast of Asia and flows eastward to the
American continent gives to every ship
bound for a northwestern port a gain Of
20 miles in every "a hours The region
will have an advantage o,er Great Britain
in the local production Of staple articles
required for the Asiatic trade He who
should now undertake TO estimate the COM
merce of the Pacific coast with Asia and
the Pacific island twenty-five wears hence
would find few who would not consider his
estimate exaggerated.

VICTORY IN WAR.
what is Needed ON the Battlefield to Secure
Success.
coI. 7. A. Dodge IN the Jnne Foram.

Col. I A. Dodge IN the June Forum.
No inventions, no changes in arms, can
alter the maxims of strategy. These are
immutable. Their use depends on the
character of the captains But tactics
change with inventions in firearms. The
maneuvers of the battlefield must depend
upon the weapon of the enemy, upon the
danger zones of his fire. From close we
have gone to open order, only to find that
scattered groups are apt to weaken disci-
pine; and to-day more than ever before
we need morale ana cohesiganess on the
brttleheld. That commander who, despite
the fearful defamation of modern artillery
and small arms, can keep his battalions
the longest in heart, will win the day ....
Many intelligent essays are published to
prove this or the other system toEbe the
one to govern the maueuvers of the COM
ing battlefield, but in truth no one knows
or can argue out what is to be. A theory
sound to-day is discarded tomorrow. But
a few facts are patent Reliance can be
placed only on strictly national army
That nation the breasts of whose citizens
are barred for her defense with honest
patriotism, and which has leaders who
leave no stone unturned to keep abreast of
war, will remain the strongest. NOnation,
In the present condition of armed expect
aney which pervades all Europe, will, by
letter arms or more recent inventions, be
able to dispense with this foundation.
The rule held good in the DAYS of the
burgess-soldier of Rome; it holds good
now.

THE SPAN OF LIFE.

Lancaster Inquirer.

There is yet living, says gentleman
from New York state, "a man who recalls
having seen Robert Fulton many times
and who knew the great inventor well. ="
This venerable survivor is Christian Coop
er. If lie lives until next October he will
celebrate the completion of his ll7th year.
Ills advanced age is we'll established. If
the record of the Reformed Church at Ger
mantown spoke truly Christian Cooper was
born on October %, l774 His home for
many years waslin a house built by Walter
Livingston in Columbia county 1t will
be remembered that Fulton married a Miss
Livingston, of Columbia county. Hence
the opportunities presented to Cooper for
seeing and knowing the inventor of the
steamboat. One can get fairly ade-
quate idea of the span of this
mans life upon rejecting that when
Robert Fulton died more than three-quar
ters Of century ago Christian Cooper
had been forty-one years in the land of the
living.
