RIGHTS IN THE EAST
United States Must Make a
Firm Stand.
We VIII Be Forced to Declare That the
Ports Of China 80 Opened to All
Nations or to None.

Boston, Nov. Ex-senator Lodge, in
an address at the Boston Boot and
Shoe clubs banquet last night, said in
part:
1.-THE success of the Notwithstanding
race, which has carried it all over the
world and made it the great industrial
and commercial people of the earth to-
day. has been due to the principle OF
self help. But there are certain things
which the spirit of American enter
prise must look to the government to
do.
You cannot expect men to carry your
products and to extend your trade by
establishing themselves in distant
portion of the earth unless you have a
government that is ready to protect
them at all times and at all hazards.
1--WE want no commerce at the cam
mons mouth, but we do want it under
stood that wherever an American is en-
gagged in business he is to be protected
and that there is navy of the United
States big enough to guard him wLer-
ever he sees tit to go. Therefore l say
that we need large navy as protec.
tion on the sea as we'll as on the land.
1.-The question that confronts us is a
larger one than what we shall do with
the Philippines. They say we are not
an Eastern power unless We hold those
islands. We are today the greatest
power in the Pacific ocean. We hold
one entire side of that ocean except the
outlet which England has in China.
We hold the half way house in Homo
lulu, where all ships must stop when
the Nicaragua canal is built, as it will
be. Are we going to allow the ports OF
the east to be closed to us and open to
Russia, France and Germany alone? Or
are we going to stand up and say with
must be closed to all or they must be
open to all?
at is going to be a struggle, in my
judgment, between the maritime ma.
tions and the non-maritime nations.
1t is going to be a struggle to see
whether the people who speak the
English tongue are to 60 to the wall.
or whether they are to have their share
in the commerce of the earth wherever
they fly their flag. believe that the
United States is entitled to its share of
the worlds commerce. l do not be.
lieve that we should be shut out from
it. and do not think that there is the
least danger of war anywhere if we are
far-sighted enough to make it known to
the world just what we want and just
what we intend to do. Let our Cover n.
ment have wisdom in its foreign policy
and it's treatment of our merchant ma
rine, and the genius of American in
vention and enterprise will do the
rest"

ing. or II per cent.
Montana follows, with 20,935, los

CHINA AND THIBET.
Trouble Brewing Between tho Two
Asiattc Countries.

Vancouver, b. c., Nov. 19.-Accord.
ing to late Oriental advices there is
trouble brewing between China and
Thibet. A Yachow dispatch says:
"The project Of Yachow has arrived
from Thibet, whittier he was sent to
settle up troubles following upon the
Chang Tunglin's raid into Chantui and
Derge last year. The whole raided dis
trict has been given over to Lhassa and
Lama rule, retrocesson of annexed
territory on the part of China that is
as little comprehensive as the 'abdica-
ton of the Russians in Corea. There
are those who say that China is appre-
hensive of hte growing independence
of the Lamas and as the treaty between
England and Thibet expires this year,
she is afraid the Lamas may open a
road for the British from Darieeling to
Lhassap

MANILA COURTS REOPENED.


Victoria, B. G.. Nov. 19.-Advices
by the steamship Empress Of China are
to the effect that the Manila law courts
have resumed business with Spanish
judges to hear all civil cases and Ameri
can judges to hear all criminal cases.
Some disquieting news has been re-
ceived as to the health Of the American
troops at Manila. In addition to the
great amount of malarial and typhoid
fever prevailing. malignant smallpox
has appeared. Deaths in hospitals
will average about 100 month.
There is leper scare In Manila.
Through neglect of Spanish officials
nearly 200 lepers escaped confinement.
Orders have been issued that all lepers
be arrested and sent to a small unin-
habited island southeast of Luzon.

The attention of those engaged in
mining is called to the following pro-
visions of the law pertaining to the cut
ting OF timber on public lands: mo
persons shall be permitted to fell or re-
move any growing tree Of any kind
whatsoever less than eight inches in
diameter. This will not be regarded
as applicable to black or lodge pine
growing in separate punches along min
eral lands. Persons telling or removing
timber from public mineral lands Of
the United States must utilize all OF
each tree cut that can profitably be
used. and must cut and remove the TOP
and brush and dispose of the same in
such manner as to prevent the spread Of
forest fires" The penalty for such vic.
lation is in sum not exceeding $500,
or imprisonment not exceeding 60 days,
or both.

CyranO on the Curb.

Cyrano has reached the street fakirs,
Gays the New York Sun. The latest
curbstone attraction upon an uptown
side street is a man selling false face
with an enormous inflatable nose,
which collapses and then reinflates-but
altogether in style strictly Cyranose-
que. Another novelty among the vend-
ers is a manikin labeled "The Rubber
Neck" and justly. for that section OF
anatomy between his chin and should
ers conists of a piece Of tiny rubber
pipe, which, under air pressure from a
bulb in the back, jumps back and for
ward in the true rubber-neck fashion.

Poor, Old Horses.

Running about the street of Skagway
are number of poor, old, stray horses,
that have been worked until their
backs and shoulders were sore, then
TUNED loose to starve. The more hu-
name of the citizens. however, have
taken up the matter with view to
raising subscriptions to secure feed and
care for the horses. A petition has al
ready been started, and it is likely the
friend of man will no longer suffer.

Millers' War on the sound.

The grocers in Seattle and Tacoms

vantage Of the rivalry between Tacomf

are peculiar. The Washington wheat
grower wants 50.cent wheat, while the
miller is only getting &3.40 for his
ground product. To grind wheat thai
costs so cents, add the freight, anc
then sell it at $3.4 means something

Gold Bearing Rock Crushed Douglas Island Alaska Equa to
That of Any Mining District in the Word-Oegon and Wash

The Greatest Mines in the World.

More goid-bcaring rock is being
crushed on Douglas island, Alaska,
than in an equal area in any other
country in the world.
The Treadwell and allied companies
now have $50 stamps set up-b40 on
the Treadwell, 1870 on the Mexican,
100 on the Union and 1870 on the Ready
Bul,ino-and the engineers will soon
turn over the mills to the companies
as completed. These mills will easily
crush z, 800 tons of ore day. do
not believe there is any place in the
world, South Africa, Australia, or any
where else, where SO much rock is be-
ing crushed on SO small space of
ground. The Treadwell now has 81
900, 900 tons OF ore in sight. The
Ready Bullion promises to equal the
Treadwell in the amount OF its produce
ton. All the dirt has been sluiced off
it and it has been traced for 800 feet
along the beach and 600 to 700 feet
along the hill. 1t is from 30 to 100
feet wide on the surface, and is in the
contact between greensboro and slate,
as are all the Douglass island lodges.

the Treadwcll. The shaft is down $50
feet under Gastineau channel and the
ledge has there wild ened out to over
200 feet and carries from $l2 to S14 in
gold throughout.
The Elmer is erecting new 20
stamp mill in the gulch leading up to
Silver Bow basin, and is about to start
tunnel from that level which will
tap it's ledge at great depth. Further
up the same gulch the Alaska-Juneau
Company has 80 stamps at work on the
ore from great open quarry OF slate
full OF veins of quartz carrying free
gold. They simply quarry out the
whole mass, sort out the quartz and
send it to the mill and throw the slate
over the dump.
Berners bay is keeping up its repu-
tation. the Ophir, Northern Belle,
Bald Eagle and Seward all having
their mills in operation. Judge Mel

pany, and who successfully opened up
the Jualin, is now developing the
Ivanhoe, over the ridge between the
Jualin and the Comet, and has about
completed 20-stamp mill. The Jualin
has turned ont $4,000 or $4,000 a
month since it started. Milo Kelly

about very decided change for the

The increased activity has tended to

changes during the month have been
unimportant and the demand scarcely
