A STAUNCH ADVOCATE.

Senator Morgan uses rather harsh
language in his Cuban speeches in the
senate, but the situation is one which will
not be overcome by honeyed expression,
and it is more than probable that he is
stirred to anger by the dilatory methods
advised by many of his associates, who
are willing to sit quietly by and see the
American flag lnsulted and ignored on
the island of Cuba. Whatever may be
said of Senator Morgan's harsh language,
and his frequent exhibitions of temper,
no one can doubt his sturdy Americanism.
He is much more interested in Cuban
matters in their relations to American
citizens, than some of his associates who
are paid for interesting themselves in
Just such business as this. While they
prefer to close their eyes and ears to the
true situation of affairs, he raises his
mighty voice in defense of the dignity
of the nation and the rights of it's citi-
zens. If there were more men like Mr..
Morgan in the U. S. senate, there would
be fewer Americans langulshing in Cuban
prisons.

THE COLLAPSE OF THE UNITED PRESS.

Mr.. CHARLES A. DANA's great news
combine, the United Press (the name was
misnomer), has gone to the dogs. The
association was organized on the basis of
= news trust, and set out with the inten'
tion Of controlling the news of the world
1t claimed to have contracts with the De
Reuter- and Havss news agencies of Lon
don and Paris which furnished the news
of Europe for American papers The
falsity of this claim was shown up some
time ago by Melville Stone of the Asso'
ciated Press, who made special trip to
Europe for the purpose of Investigating
the alleged claims of the United Press
Since that time the prestige of Mr
Dana's news combine steadily declined
uutl a few days since when receiver
was asked for. The collapse of this or
ganization is triumph for the Associat
ed Press which has pursued the even
tenor of its way adhering to honest
methods and growing more popular year
by year.

AEIER nEAkE, REPORTERS.

A bill has recently been introduced in
the New York legislature to amend that
section of the Code of Criminal Proceed
ure which defines disorderly persons, SO
as to include persons who falsely represent
themselves as representatives of news
papers. The wording Of the amendment
is as follows:
"Persons who, not being employed by
any newspaper or periodical publication,
represent themselves to be SO employed,
aud by means thereof gain or acquire, or
seek to gain or acquire, any information
to the advantage of themselves"
This will strike the private detectives
on tender spot. Everyone knows who
has lived in the larger cities of the coun-
try, something of the frequency with
which detectives in search of informa-
tion, palm themselves off as reporters for
some well known journal, and there have
been numerous cases Of late where black
maiers have used the same methods to
extort money. In such cases, the pre-
tense is of course that they have been
sent to write up some story or scandal
1t need not be based on facts at all
which would do the person 30 written up
great harm, and to more or less openly
demand money for suppressing the story.
The fellow who pushes himself over the
fire lives at big fires and gains entrance
to public gatherings, or who "beats"
his way into cheap shows, is OF another
variety of the "fake" reporter, against
which the proposed enactment as above
mentioned is aimed. These people all
make trouble for the legitimate reporter
and reputable newspaper. They are dis
orderly persons in the best sense of the
word and should be 80 defined, and pun
ished for the public good.

aged, and President Mckinley is setting a

A SHIP building firm proposes to take
steamboats, overland in sections to the
upper waters of the Yukon river and then
put them together for navigation for such
portions OF that stream as cannot be
reached from the lower river on account
of formidable rapids. The greatest case
OF inland steamboat construction on
record was the building of the steamer
Shoshone at Farewell Bend on the Snake
river in 1866, by the Oregon Steam Navi-
CATION company, Of whom only one di-
rector is now living. She was built of
"bull pine" found in that country, but her
cabin was gotten from Portland, and
then shipped by steamer to Umatilla, and
thence by wagon to the scene of action.

NO COMPETITION.

The armor plate manufacturers are not
very anxious these days to get in on the
ground floor Of government bids for this
expensive product, as has been the rule
heretofore. Some time since the govern
ment came to the conclusion that 1t had
been paying an exorbitant price for its
armor plate, and decided to fix rate to
govern such transactions in the future.
The officials had their attention called to
the fact at the time of this decision that
manufacturers would not be in hurry to
furnish armor plate at the price named by
the governments, which it seems had an
ticipated some such move, by providing
for the establishment of government
plant, where the necessary armor could
be manufactured in lots to suit the de-
mand of new war vessels from time to
time. 1t is doubtful if there was any
serious intention of carrying this latter
proposition into effect, as it was generally
supposed that the armor plate people
we're at one of their old time "bluffs."
The price offered by the government
leaves them Il fair profit on the work, but
it was substantial reduction on former
rates, which allowed the manufacturers a
small fortune in profits on each and
every ship armored. test of the mat
ter has been recently made. Some weeks
since the navy department. advertised in
the usual way for bids to supply armor
for the Illinois, Michigan and Alabama,
three ships of war in course of construc-
tion by the United States. Composition
in this line of work has always been keen,
and the navy officials were no doubt
greatly surprised when they opened the
bids yesterday, to find that but single
company would do the work. This was
the Illinois Steel company. The .ques-
tion now arises as to whether the gov
eminent will establish an armor plant OF

resource is exhausted, and practically
there is no second growth. Agriculture
already suffers from the deforestation of
the stream heads and water sheds, and
merely as question of timber supply,
the forest will be exhausted in less than
40 years, unless something is done to
conserve and replant them. His reason
ing applies with the strongest force also
to New Mexico, which contains about
20000000 acres of timber area.

its own, or depend in the future upon the
slender source of single company,
which seems to be the only concern in
the country willing TO do the work. This
company agrees to furnish the requisite
5000 tons of armor, only on condition
that it be given 20-year contract TO
supply all naval amor required by the
government 1t proposes to supply the
first 5000 tons at $3.50 per ton, aud all
that may be required hereafter for q
period of 20 years at $240 per ton.
