Among the most interesting move
ments which have taken place in re-
cent years is the one looking to the
establishment of an international
court of arbitration, which shall set
tie the disputes as they arise between
the nations of the earth. Thirty
years ago such a project would be
dominated a dream-a fancy from
Utopia that could hardly call forth
the consideration of serious-mlnded
men; but with constant agitation
and the further thought that the
United States is lily prepared at the
present time to protect its rights and
enforce its demands by warfare, the
project has assumed tangible shape.
At the conference now being held
in Washington men distinguished in
various walks of life are present and
lend their labors to the fulfillment of
the cause. Various speeches have
been made deprecating the brutal
ity and uncivilized method of
settling disputes by force, and the
believers in possible universal
peace seize the opportunity to pre-
sent arguments for cause which,
however attractive it may be from.
an ethical standpoint, is in little dan

THURSDAY. :
WHAT GUARANTEE?

The Cascade locks are practically
completed, and there need no longer
be any question about opening the
entire Columbia river to traffic in
time to carry off the crop of this
year.-Moro Observer.
Really Well, we are glad to hear
it. Perhaps Mr.. Ireland has some
inside information which the rest of
us don't possess. A few months ago
there were good many people who
thought the locks would be done
this spring, and, if we remember
Alright, there was good deal said
concerning a celebration. Such talk
seems like a burlesque now.
1t is true the sundry civil bill has
passed the house, been read a second
time in the senate, and reported
favorably from the committee on ap-
preparations. Its chances of passing
the senate are considered good.
This bill carries an appropriation of
$174,593 "for the completion of the
locks" We dislike pessimist, and
yet we see no particular reason for
waxing enthusiastic over this $174,-
593 appropriation than we did over
the twenty thousand one. What
guarantee is there that the money
will not be squandered and misused
as former appropriations have been?
No confidence exists in the Days or
the board of engineers. What rea
son have we to think the money will
be used Alright?
Not until the boats from Portland
reach the middle Columbia will we
believe that the Cascade locks are
any more than name.

The Connecticut Republican con
ventlon declared for sound m one y
and protection. These are the
watchwords for true Republicans
throughout the country. Just be-
cause the Oregon Republicans made
the mistake of nominating a con
gressional candidate whose record
on the financial question is not all
that could be desired, IS no reason
why Republicans should be advised
to vote against him. This is not the
way to achieve success or help on
the cause of protection, which after
all is the great issue before the coun-
try.

The Oregonlan is supporting the
Democratic nominee for congress in
the Second district. 1t may not be
doing so avowedly, but by advising
it's readers not to vote for Ellis, the
effect Is the same. The Oregonian
is a "bolter," the same sort of a
reereant it condemned certain mem
bers of the last legislature for being.
To the ordinary mind there is little
distinction between boiling caucus
nominee and candidate named by
a convention. 1T is a question if
politically the man who has the i'll
will of the Oregonian is not TO be
considered lucky.

This is now the shortest and quickest

good connections at st. Paul and Chicago
makes this the most desirable route.

ger of speedy realization.
People should not put too much
faith in the international arbitration
scheme. It's merits are unques-
toned, provided the ends promised
could be attained. War is last
resort; nations do not rush head
long into conflict, and are especially
loath for battle since the invention
of deadly machinery, which has pro
gressed SO rapidly in recent years.
But it is doubtful if any question
which could not be settled by the
means now employed, would find
settlement in a permanent court of
arbitration.
Little harm can come from the
project, provided we continue the
work of building coast defences and
increasing our army and navy. But
let Us not trust too much to inter
national arbitration, for in our hour
of need our trust may fail.

''It is with pleasure tell you that by
one days use of Chamberlain's Cough

cold. My head was completely stopped
up and could not sleep at night. I can
recommend this remedy" A cold nearly
always starts in the head and afterwards
extends to the throat and lungs. By
using this remedy freely as soon as the
cold has been contracted it will cure the
cold at once and prevent it from extend
