After failure to negotiate peace
China has philosophically made
up her mind to accept the situation,
and is now making vigorous pre-.
paration for a prolonged war The
refusal of Germany to join the pro-
posed quadruple alliance to inter
vene for peace has practically de-
stroyed all hope of European in
reference. Now that China is left
to her own resources, without pros
pect of foreign assistance or hope
Of negotiating a treaty of peace
with Japan, the war will begin in
earnest. All the latent forces Of
the Celestial empire will be awak-
ened and China will begin the life
or death struggle. There is no
longer doubt as to Japan's inten-
tions. On her part it is to be a
war of conquest and subjugation,
and will be prosecuted with all the
energy of this martial nation,
China has the numerical strength
to resist invasion from any power,
but she is so wofully lacking in
the spirit of patriotism and is SO
thoroughly weakened by internal
dissensions that her final downfall
is almost assured.

At its meeting in Portland last
week the State Bar Association in
troduced and adopted the following
resolution. l'That the committee
on legislation or statutory reform
be instructed to prepare and have
introduced in the next session OF
the legislative assembly a bill plac-
ing the district attorneys of the
state on a salary and abolishing
all fees, said law to take effect upon
its passage" There was a fight as
to when it should take effect.
Some wanted it to take effect on
the passage of the bill and others
on the 1st of December, 1896. 1t
was decided, finally, that it should
take effect on the passage of the
bill.

1t is being said in the press of
the state that State Printer Frank
Baker has a valuable farm near
Salem, which he will run on retir-
ing from office, and that Baker has
made a fortune as state printer
variously estimated up to $4,000.
Fortunes of this size are made from
the people frequently by men whose
ability would not otherwise entitle
them to $1,000 year. This is an
abuse which should be corrected.
Offices of the snap variety should
be abolished, and the people would
be greatly unburdened by it. The
prosperity of the country is kept
in check by just such profits, and
the jails and pens are kept full of
men bred like lice from such in
justices and corruptions.- East Or

A Burden to Small Counties.

The amount of fees collected by the
sheriff of Douglas county turned over to
the treasurer since July 1st up to the
present time has been $64.40. The
sheriff's salary, under the new reform
law abolished fees of county officers and
ablishing fixed salaries, is 1880 a
year, the first deputy's salary is $1,000 a
year and the second deputy's salary is
5000 year, showing that while the Office
of sheriff has yielded the county $64. 40
during the last three months it has cost
the taxpayers about $1,000, or more than
fifteen times as much as it has brought
into the treasury. In nearly every
county heard from the salaries Of county
officers are said to amount to more than
the fees. The law was passed in obe-
dience to clamor based on vague
rumors alleging that the fees amounted
to fabulous sums, which were purely
imaginary in every instance, except in
Multnomah county, where the amounts
were no doubt greatly magnified, and in
a few other counties where illegal or ex-
trayagant fees were allowed and paid by
the county court, far in excess to what
ought to have been paid under q fair
construction of the law and careful
auditing of the accounts. Under the
new law they are interested in doing as
little business as possible, the pay be-
ing the same when nothing is done as
when there is great amount of work :,
and hence the fees of constables are now
ten times as much as they were under
the old law. This no doubt accounts for
the receipts of the sheriff's Office of
Douglas conn ty being about $40 month,
while the salaries of the sheriff and
deputies amount to more than three
hundred month. The constables are
collecting the fees that the sheriff form
erly received and the sheriff is drawing
salary. Under the old law fees paid
the bill, but under the new law II takes,
in some instances, both fees and a sal
ary. In nearly all the smaller counties
the new law will be burden on the
taxpayers and an inconvenience to peo-
pie who have business with county
officers, and in many instances will
cause business to be neglected or delay

AS continent Africa is the home of
vigorous race Of mankind, which,
while resisting assimilation with Euro
pean civilization, defies permanent con-
quest. European travellers, traders, mis-
sionaries, conquerors, may at their viii
and at their peril penetrate into this
dark sanctuary, but their soiourn is for
a day, and OH the morrow the faint
traces of their passage are obliterated
by the exuberant growths Of barbarism.
Grudgingly as it is issnmetimes conceded,
it is nevertheless fact that the bulk of
the continent of Africa isstill untouched
by western civilization. ! for one can
not believe that Africa will ever be
Europeanized or Brought within the
pale Of western progress, for in order
that Africa may progress it is absolute
ly essential that it BE- developed along
natural lines, but as yet the inherent
powers Of native genius have neither
been discovered, nor in the absence of
any cohesion among native tribes and in
view Of European rapacity are they,
even if discovered. ever likely to be en-
couraged or fosteIed. No; Africa is a
continent fated TO be conquered and ex.
plotted by the heirs Of civilization, to
whom il may pay tribute, but homage
never Nineteenth Century.
