PEACE PROSPECTS.

The peace negotiations seem pur-
posely prolonged by the Spanish in or
der to see how the elections have
gone. If the Republican party should
seem to be losing ground then the
Spaniard would come forward with a
much holder front and look for modi-
fications which, however, he would not
get The trouble with the Spaniard
is that he does not understand the
American. He cannot understand that
in dealing with a foreign country it is
not question of Republican, or Dem
ocrat, or Populist, or Fusiopist, but
that it is question of national hon
or, pure and simple.
1t is plain why the Spaniard cannot
understand. The supporters of the
present monarchy, the Alphonsists,
are quite ready to hang or shoot any
one who disagrees from them. The
Carlists would overthrow the govern
ment by force of arms tomorrow if
they saw their chance, and the Re-
publicans would be equally ready, if
they were strong enough, to follow
the same course. Now in the United
States whether Republican, Democrat
or Populist comes to the front there
is no question of overthrowing the
government, and the foreign policy
of one administration is not so very
different from that of the previous
one.
1t is evident that the United States
intends to keep the Philippines, and
that she will hold to that determine
tion no matter what arguments may
be advanced. Were it not so the
would not keep sending troops for
ward in the number she is now doing.
Whether this will lead to breaking
off of the peace negotiations we shall
see probably before the end of the
month. OF course it would be suici-
dial for Spain to fight again, for her
loss would then be the Philippines
without any compensation, and in all
probability it might entail some of
the Atlantic islands.
Events will move very swiftly when
they begin to move, and we shall only
hear of the results many days after
they occur. All! if we only had ca
Bile.

FRANCE AND ENGLAND.

Though it is evident that Major
Marchand will not return to Fashoda
and that incident is closed, it is also
evident that there is a strong feeling
of irritation between the French and
the British and that both powers are
making every preparation to be ready
in case some chance should bring
about hostilities.
Should the war take place the main
struggle would be in European waters,
but there would be a good deal of
work done among the colonial possess
sions of each belligerent. There would
once more occur that struggle begun
last century as to Gallo or British SUI
premacy in the East. Such struggles
are practically never finished. At any
time they may burst into flame.
Such war would not affect us in
the mid-Pacific, but it might have af-
fected us had we not become annexed
to a power which is amply able to
protect us. Left in our independence
we might have become a shuttle cock
between contending navies, and we
can thank our good fortune that we
are now anchored in a safe political
harbor.

MONEY NEEDED.

1t is satisfactory to learn from the
Minister of Finance that the subscrip-
tion to the 100000 of government
bonds is likely to be a full one. The
money is needed for an excellent pur-
pose and will be well invested. If the
loan is effected we shall get the drain

is not taken up we shall not, that is
all.

As Reported by the Oregon Section o

for the corresponding week OF last
year. The highest temperature was

Threshing OF grain continues; in
some localities IL is completed. With
very few exceptions, all grain is now
in shock. Correspondents continue to
report the poor yield and poor quality
Of spring grain, especially that sown
late, and ascrlbe it to the warm, dry
weather of the latter part Of July.
For all practical purposes, the grain
crop is out of the way. The second
crop Of clover has been cut; IL is better
than usual.
Hop picking has commenced. The
warm dry weather destroyed the hop
lice to very large extent, but the
weather Of the past week has been
favorable to their development and
increase; so that unless hop picking
progresses rapidly the lice may still
do damage. The condition Of the
crop at present is excellent.
The potato crop is about ready to
be dug. Some sections report a very
large crop, while others appear to
have a small crop, owing TO late
planting and to the dry period.
The fruit crop is excellent. Prunes
are ripening rapidly and drying will
commence this week, though 1t will
not be general for ten days. The
prune crop is unusually large and of
good quality. The peach crop is be-
ing marketed; the weather is very
favorable for the maturing OF the
peaches.

ported on most faYorably by all the
