Business And Politics.

One Of The most noticeable et all The
things republican organs say Of the larid
question is the ever prevalent string OF
Inconsistencies One OF the latest Is that
the new tariff law will no, be Of any bene
fit 10 consumers for the price Of articles on
which the tariff has been redUcei will re
main the same. In the face of this they
will say that manufacturers must reduce
wages in order to meet the lower prices
at which they will have to sell their pro
ducts in order to compete with the foreign
imported articles. Then many manufac-
tursrs, they say. will be ruined, and driven
from business because they will not be able
to meet the reduced prices in consequences
of The heavy impoTtatioHs. All Of which
show that these organs are driven 10 tbs

Our Trade With England.

The total of cur domestic and foreign ex-
ports last year was sSo2, ,I4s,s74, aad o
this there went 10 England $43I ,o63. 5S7;
this is very nearly one half Of the total, ,ana
went to England by way of Canada.
England buys from us just about as much
as all The rest of the world. In the Fast
six fiscal years the aggregate of our domes-
tic and foreign exports was s., 2s4,7S77SS,
OF which our exports TO the United King
dom were s.. .6a7. .So4,93a. This trade Is the
more striking because during these six years
oue total imports have been considerably
aver four and half billion dollars and our
imports from England have but little ex-
ceeded one billion. There xas not year
of this period when our imports from the
; United Kingdom amounted to one hall o.
our exports thither; In iSoa they did not
amount to one third, and IN 1894 they cid
not amount 10 one fourth.

HOW 1T WILL BE SPENT.
Binger Hermann Writes About
the Willamette.

Binger Hermann has written to Mayor
Friendly of Eugene the following letter,
which indicates that the recent appropria-
tion for the improvement of the Willamette
will be spent mostly in surveys and pre-
liminary work, and some time we will get
the actual work done: take pleasure in
saying that in the congress just adjourned,
we secured legislation providing for sur
vey by the War Department and its engin-
Ger corps of that portion of the willamette
river. Our object is to secure the adoption
of project by the engineer corps, which
will not only deepen that waterway but
which will, at the same time, maintain a
navigable depth at all seasons of the year,
by such protection Of the bank and shore
line, as will prevent the filing mp of the
channel, and the formation Of bars and
shoals. The project heretofore has been
confined to the removal Of snags and shoals
and hence the estimates of the department
have been limited, and our efforts to pro-
cure more liberal appropriations have teen
correspondingly handicapped.
With one project for the entire river,
| and involving great and substantial
system OF permanent improvement, large
estimates must be recommended TO congress
upon which We can hope to reward and
secure large appropriations and thereafter
maintain operations Of magnitude, until
the great improvement desired, shall be
fully and finally completed. We feel that
our state has now reached that stage in its
development and importance that we car
justly demand more liberal recognition for
the l72 miles Of the grca. Willamette
waterway. The report of the local engineer
will be accompanied by statistics as TO the
commerce which will seek the Willamette
outlet from the interior. Such matters so
reported have weight with congress and
the committees. IL is therefore highly
essential that our people. and particu arls
our organized bodies, should correspond
with Major Post, the distinguished engi.
neer now stationed at Portland, and sho0Id
remit to him the shipments and resource
of the sections in which they are interested
and generally point out to him the public
need for the improvement of the entire nes
navigation. May ask you gentlemen tc
cooperate officially 10 this enj.

Russia In The Far East.

Russia's movements in the far Eas: are
daily growing in interest. A powerful
Squadron Is at anchor in the neighborhood
of the disputed POsts-a navy great enough
to master The situation in a single battle
II has been announced unofiicially that
the purpose of having such force al hand
Is to see that Russia's interests are fully
protested, but it is nonsense to suppose
tha; the Government OF the Gar believes
that all OF the Pacific feet Is necessity 10
that end
Russia has not iried to conceal It's desire
for station further south on the Siberian
coast, and when the least excuse for inter
ference is offered Aiexander's great ships
will be deep il the movemeL; aeainst the
half civilized nations. How long Eng
land would tolerate such interference is a
mere matter Of conjecture. based wholly
upon tie proyocaiion leading to Russian
attack.
A European military authority who has
spent several years in China. studying the
soldiery of that country. says that 50. 600
trained white soldiers. with plenty OF pro-
visions and arms, could dissolve the Chi
nese Empire and march a. will from one
to the other If The condition of the Chi
nesc Emperor's troops is indeed as bad as
this, it seems only matter Of few years,
even il the present oppof unity passes, un-
Ill Russia viii extend her dominions south
ward. The building of the Siberian rail-
road and telegraph was n yer intended TO
serve only The bleak coun'ry through which
they pass. The Gar was looking ahead
when he conceived the master scheme tha,
is now being pushed as rapidly as the
ready rubie can make it go.
From Tsrtary to Canton the yellow race
is in danger.
