PROCTICAL PATRIOTISM.

Love of country is probably the ac-
ceptable embodiment of patriotism,
but as to how it should be exhibited
there as wide diversity of opinion.
Some consider all that is necessary is
to assemble on the Fourth of July each
year and cheer for old glory and
Amerl ,an freedom, others insist that
the only true patriot is the one who
has offered his life before -canou's
mouth as a sacrifice to his country,
while there are others who believe
patriots are those who accept and
obey the country's laws and uphold its
institutions in their everyday walks
through life. In general sense per-
haps the latter requirement of real
patriot is the most acceptable, bur
there is a patriotism that may be-
applied locally that more directly con-
Germs individual communities than do
love of country, or submission to its
laws.
. Local patriotism-love Of home and
desire to build up home institutions
more directly affect each community
:thah-do all the boasts of1eyalty 10 the
nation. Hence the individual who is
loyal to every home industry displays
a more practical degree of patrio ism
than does the soldier on the battle
field. He who patronizes home in.
dustries in preference to foreign, who
satisfies his desires wherever possible
with home produ 'ts, who buys of his
home merchant, has his work done by
home mechanics, in short consumes
nothing made abroad that can be had
at home, is practical patriot. That
there is too little of this class of
patriotism practiced in every commun-
ity is evidenced everywhere Even in
The Dalles it is noticed quite fre-
quently We find on sale almost
everywhere, in direct competition with
our home products. and as rule of no
letter quality, articles from abroad,
while the home producer must seek a
foreign ma, ket for his commodities.
This is in measure due to the fact that
many have an idea something made
is superior to anything made at home.
For instance, many housewives think
flour made in Umatilla county is sup
erior to that producec at the Diamond
mills In The Dalles, while as a
matter of fact there is no
better -four made in the state
than the Diamond brand; or that
ham put up by the Union Meat Co. at
Troutdale, is superior to one packed
by any of the local butchers, though
the latter could take the premium over
their Troutdale competitors in any
fair contest.
So long as this feeling exists that
nothing is perfect except it is imported,
the community will not thrive nor will
home institutions prosper. What is
required to make this or any other
community thrifty is the practice of
of more practical patriotism. more of
disposition to patronize home in
dustriea

Union of Church and state.

CHICAGO, Jan. 18.-"The great ten.
dency in the Congregational church is
toward the union of religion and the
state. The church has before it a
splendid opportunity to assert loYe of
country and to associate itself with
patriotic spirit. The time is coming
when we shall put obligations of citi-
zenship in our creed and teach them
in the churches"
These were the words of Rev. Chas.
Lamson, president of the American
board of foreign missions in an address
before the Congregational club last
evening. He was speaking of the
great tendencies manifest in the de-
pertinent of his church and among
those to whom be addressed his re-
marks, telling of the power the church
would have in civic and national affairs
in the future. His entire audience
burst into cheers

WHERE THE LABORER GOTOFF

During the last national campaign
there were two prominent issues-the
money question and the tariff. The
latter was made the matter of greatest
importance in the manufacturing cen.
ters, especially in the New England
states, where large numbers OF factory
hands were led to believe that their
only hope OF retaining employment
and advance in wages laid in support
ing the principles of protection, for
without additional protection wages
must be reduced or factories shut down.
On the tariff question the operatives
in New England cotton factories were
almost unit, and voted for the prin-
ciple that they were told would insure
then steady employment at advanced
wages. When their ''frieuds," the
protectionists, were put into power,
the first act was to pass tariff bill,
which carries with it an increased duty
on cotton manufactures. that increased
the mill owners profits, but the opera
tives have as yet seen nothing of the
promised increase in wages. On the
they are subjected to cut
in wages, and are confronted with the
necessity of walking out or working
for less pay than they did under the
system they voted to discard in 1895.
This has occurred at time when
the manufacturers should, if there is
in the claim Of protection to
articles and cheap raw
be able to pay higher wages
than ever before. They have all the
protection they asked for, and are get
ting their cotton cheaper than at any
other time in the past ten years. Un-
der these conditions it is difficult for
the iaborer to learn just'where he has
been benefited by protection. The
laborer in the mills finds his wages re-
duced. and the laborer in the cotton
fields finds his income cut down in the
boasted home market that protection
was to give him. Evidently the laborer
got off on the wrong side of the fence
when he voted for president in 1895.

New YORK, Jan. lS.-According to
the Tribune correspondents Hayana,
-badgering the government occupies
the attention of two classes in Cuba at
present. One class is the conscrva.
tiyes, who were predisposed to fault
finding. Determined to have no share
IN the administration of autonomy.
they are now congralulating them
selves.
The other class Is d new creation.
It's mem bers cali themselves rahicai
autonomists. They are aggressive and
critical. If the authorities depart
from the straight path OF colonial
home rule they cry lapse from the
ousetops. The amnesty such as has
been extended does not satisfy them
They demand that Weyler and all his
works be disavowed, and call foTr par
alton in Individual cases. They also
insist upon immediate reform OF vari-
Gus abuses and the removal of the
press censorship. In short, they have
program which causes them to be
called both disguised insurgents and
embryo rebels.
Decentralization amounting almost TO
anarchy may continue for a long while
without either the military authority
or The civil government, as represent
ed by the autonomisU cabinet, asking
foreign aid to restore peace.
The growing misery of the people
leads to the hope that Intervention
will not be indefinitely delayed.
Starvation claims it's hundreds of VIC
Tins daily. No effective and perma-
nent relief can be given the population
in Cuba until the present conditions
are reversed.

Il LITTLE TOO EARLY.

1t is not to be forgotten that the
present good showing of eoyernment
receipts, activity in private business,
enlarged employment and better,
wages, are year in advance because
of President McKinley's calling of the
fifty fifth congress into extraordinary
session. The settlement of the tariff
then removed it from consideration
now. Had not the special session
been called the period of waiting
would have been prolonged till the
present time in every business which
must know the tariff rates before it
ventures beyond present needs of the
market. One of the greatest services
the Mckinley administration and re
publican congress were, or will be,
able to render to the country was their
prompt attention to the revenues and
restoration of the protective policy.

Scrapped For Cuba.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-When the
house convened today the leaders on
both sides were rallying their forces,
and it was apparent that the battle
over Cuba which ragged yesterday was
to continue today.
Bruck er, democrat. of Michigan,
asked unanimous consent for the con-
sideration of a resolution which he
sent to the clerks desk. The speaker
took occasion to examine the resOlu-
tion, and while doing so, Bailey, the
leader of the minority, loudly demand
ed that the resolution be reported.
: The speaker thereupou directed the
clerk to read the resolution, which in
structed the committee on foreign
affairs to report without further delay
the senate Cuban belligerenc cy resClu-
tion.
Like flash Hit, the chairman of
the foreign affairs committee, was on
his feet with a point of order which
the sperker promptly sustained, and
was about to recognize Hit to call up
the diplomatic and consular appropri-
alton when Bailey demanded recogni-
tion.
Zone moment, please" he called,
''let US first dispose. of this question of
order"
"The chair sustained the point of
order" retorted the speaker.
"Then appeal" called Bailey across
the hall to Brucker, and the Mich
igander entered an appeal from the
decision of the chair. All was Instant
ly excitement and confusion. Dozens
of members were on their feet demand
ing recognition to debate the appeal,
but the speaker recognized Dalzell,
who moved to lay it on the table. This
cut off debate and the speaker put thu
question. The motion to lay the
appeal on the table was carried by a
voue of 1853 to 126.
There were no manifestations of
approval on the announcement of the
vote. The house. on Hits motion,
went into committee of the whole and
resumed consideration of the diplo-
matte and consular appropriation bills.
AS soon as the first paragraph was
read, Williams, democrat, of Mississ-
ippi, offered an amendment directing
the president to appoint three COM
to proceed to Cuba and,
If possible, to neg tiate treaty of
peace, amity and commerce with the
republic of Cuba. 1t was ruled out of
order.
Lewis, democrat. of Washington,
offered an amendment providing that
to emphasize the fact that a state of
war existed in Cuba, the consul gen
e:al at Havana be Withdrawn and the
of Spain be notified of the
of diplomatic relations at
that point.
Hit raised a point of order, which
In the chair, sustained.

sffectual attempts to amend the bill so |
Is to meet the Cuban situation in |
some shape. but all fell through on |
points of order.

ALWAYS A GOOD PLACE.

A commercial traveller who has been
on the road the past twenty years,
travelling mostly In the country east of
the Cascade mountains, in speaking of
The Dalles a few days ago. made the
statement that of all towns in the In
land Empire it had stood the hard
times better and came out with fewer
business failures than any city he had
visited. Why this is, he could not tell,
but it is plain to all who have been
close observers of conditions and Of
fairs:
1t is simply because The Dalles is
more faYorably located for doing busi-
ness than any other city east of the
mountains and because of the low
freight rates it has enjoyed during
times when the prices prevailing in
places located further interior, for the
products of the country, would little
more than pay the expense of getting
them to market. Just before the hard
times began steamboat connection was
established between here and Portland,
made possible by the construction of
the state portage at the Cascades, and
while the producers surrounding other
trade centers were paying out nearly
the price of their products to get them
to market, those here were getting low
rates and no matter how low the price,
still had little profit left for their
labor, hence, as rule, were able to
meet their obligations. The merch-
ants also derived a benefit from these
low freight rates, not alone in the
matter of dollars saved on their freight
accounts, but by being able to offer
prices that drew trade from all quar-
ters.
These conditions still exist and will |
continue for many years, or at least |
until the distractions to navigation of |
The Columbia above The Dalles are re-
moved. This is something in the far
distant, and capitalists seeking invest
nent will recog.ize this fact when
coming west to seek locations for
business. A town that by its natural
advantages has been enabled to with
tand the dull times as has The Dalles
,annot but win fayors.

DON'T GET EXCITED.

The Klonkike fever is getting firm
hold on many residents of Wasco
county, and unless it abates there will
be large delegation from here go to
the Arctic goldhelds this season. To
those who contemplate casting their
lot in the Northern climes and coquet-
ting with the "fickle goddess" around
the vicinity of the North pole. we
would say, don't get excited and leave
a competency at home in order to
tamper with something you know not
of.
Under the most favorable circum.
stances a trip to Klondike will be
fraught with danger and suffering.
Only those accustomed to enduring
hardshlps are fitted for the undertake
ing;and those who are not robust
must fail to reach the goal. Besides.
whi1e:- there are-glowing ~reports-of
fakuhous,.weaith.e to be had in. the
:.Alaska mines. probably not one in
fifty will be fortunate. This at least
has been the experience in all mining
camps during the past, and will prob
ably be the case in the Klondike region.
Hence the man who has a competency
here is. not warranted in deserving i.
to seek for uncertain wealth in the far
North.
/. AS rule the man who has sufficient
capital to take him to Dawson city and
pay his expenses there for year, will
make more by husbarding that capital
here at home than he will by chasing
around after gold in Alaska. ga bird
in hand is worth two in the bush" at
all times, and if this will be considered
seriously by those who contemplate
going North in quest of gold, they will
readily see the absurdity- of sacrificing
anything to make the trip. There will
be. plenty of people going to Alaska
this year to cover all the good claims,
and there will be thousands Left who
will find nothing 20 locate on. These
thousands who go will have to be
clothed and fed, AMI If all those on the
Pacific who have desire to 60 :Till
settle down to producing something
for. the gOld-seekers to eat, they will
find. it more comfortable and more
profitable than to go off On a wild
rooea choaa.

We notice that in the coming city
election of Wasco. which will be held
on the 3lst, the lines are very closely
drawn between the liberal, progressive
element Of citizens on one side, and
the old fogy elemen. on the other.
From common rumor the loss OF the
county seat was largely due to the fact
that the leader of the latter faction
apparently took no interest in the
fight and the consequent welfare of
the town, and unless his disposition
has changed materially. in a disinter-
ested way we would hardly consider
him good material for the first mayor
of such progressive town.
