The American Open Door.

1t being once determined that the
United States is to acquire the Philip
pines, it is the logic of facts that the
commercial door should be swung wide
open there, with perfect freedom Of
trade as between nationalities. OF all
the arguments which can be adduced
for the retention of this archipelago,
that which asserts it's Importance as a
base of support for the oriental trade of
the United States is the strongest.
Every other reason for has an equally
cogent reason against. But the one
great dominant fact that it will furnish
a magnificent leverage for our trade en-
terprises stands by itself and is not cas-.
lily oppugned-
That the future interests of the Unit
ed States are a good deal involved in
the greatness of it's export trade is po-
sition which even captious c1itics do
not assail. The time has gone when
our own uses can absorb our tremendous
productive capacities. All nations see
in the opening markets of a race of
400, 600. 900 people the greatest outlet
for surplus products which the world
has ever given in all its changing phe-
nomena The United States is naturally
deeply interested in securing its right
full share in that biggening of facilities,
and the 'open door" policy is the one
which most expands those facilities. So
in declaring that all powers shall have
equal trading rights with herself in the
Philippines this country sets the seal
ON that alliance with England which
Japan and probably Germany also will
eagerly enter. There is no article in the
declaration which this country makes
to the world in regard to her claims and
purposes in the Philippines which SO
reeks with significance.

Yale university has Lost one Of the
greatest Of its chiefs i'm DIR. Timothy
Dwight, who has just resigned on the
score of old age in spite Of affectionats
and urgent protest. DR.. Dwight was n
worthy successor Of his grandfather and
namesake, also one Of the great presi-
dents of Yale. Both were men Of large
outlook and sagacity as administrators
as well as men eminent in scholarship.
DR.. Dwight's retirement suggests some
thoughts eminently pat to a certain
growing tendency in all our institu-
tions of the higher learning. Though
an eminent mem Der Of the theological
profession, his management of univer-
sity affairs was eminentIy that Of a
broad minded man Of the world. He
did more to emancipate great institu-
tion from the tradition that a minister
of religion must necessarily be at its
head than any other force which has
ever helped to swing the university out
of its time honored orbit. 1t was not
Dwight the theologian, but Dwight the
great, genial, many sided man Of affairs,
receptive to all the social and intellec-
tual currents of the age, who caused
Yale to grow by leaps and bounds dur
ing his incumbency. Indications now
point to selection of a new president
who will not belong to the ministerial
profession, or rather they point to a
new attitude of thought ON the part of
the corporation and alumni of the insti-
tuition which will make the election of
layman quite possible and for the first
time in the history Of the university.
No one could have better prepared the
way for this than DIR. Dwight.
The wonderful success of Institutions
like Harvard, Columbia and the Uni
versity of Chicago, not to speak of
minor colleges, under lay management
has been an object of instruction. How
ever important it may be that Christian
teaching should have its. due place in
the methods of the higher education,
one fact becomes more evident every
year-the most effective management
of great corporate bodies such as those
named depends on other gifts and ex-
perience than such as are more specific
ally fostered by theological or even
purely scholarly training.

Government Ownership OF Teie-
graph Lines.

The situation in Porto Rico
PROMISES to force on this govern
ment for a time at least, the ex-
periment of federal ownership of
telegraph and telephone lines. The
war department now controls all
lines in Porto Rico, and IN the
evacuated section of Cuba. The
latter. however, is looked upon as
merely transient. In both places
the lines are being repaired and the
government is handling commercial
matters after government matter.
The signal service agent IN charge
of this work. says it Is too soon to
draw conclusions as to the expense
of the service, as to the cost for
maintenance and long delayed re-
pairs is Just now more than the in
come from the lines. But III SIX
months from the first OF January,
the signal service expects to be
able to furnish some interesting
data as to the profit of the insular
wire service. The military Oecu-
patton of the line will naturally
continue until the establishment of
a civil government, and consider
able interest is expressed as to how
the management of the lines will
be disposed of eventually or
whether it will be permanently re-
tanned by the government. This
enforced object lesson in federal
management is naturally expected
to have considerable influence pro

Presented With a Medal.

Our townsman George Henry
Bruce is the proud pOssessor of an
elegant jewel in the form of large
gold medal, presented to him by
j. S. Murrow, grand scribe of
Chapter Masons in the Indian Ter
ritory, during his recent visit to
our city. The medal, which con-
tains on its face many jewels, is
elaborately engraved with emblems
of the order and cut in bold letters
the words Geo. FL. Bruce, P. G.

the story is told: Presented by
the Grand Chapter of the Indian
Territory to Geo. Fl. Bruce, Grand
High Priest. 1878" That Mr..
Bruce is proud in the possession Of
the medal goes without saying.

The imagination of General Long
street. commissioner of railroads, has
been fred by the possibilities of the new
colonies as bearing on railroad traffic.
He recommends the construction and
operation by government of an air line
from Kansas City to San Diego. Cal. to
accommodate the tremendous augment
of trade which he foresees in the near
future. General Longstreet considers
the condition of our roads as exceeding
ly favorable. The aggregate presents a
spectacle of many roads very recently
in receivers hands but now paying
dividends ON their preferred stocks and
piling up surpluses In his view all the
bond aided roads will within a short
period be able to pay principal and in

To Increase Proflt.

If there is one thing more than
another that the people Of the
south should study and reflect upon
by day and by night, it is how to
increase the profits of agriculture
and at the same time give en-
ployment to the largest possible
number of people. "
So says Col. J. R. Killebrew in
the Southern Farm Magazine, in
writing on Farmers and Corpora
tions,' and the necessity for manu-
facturers and railroads as aids to
agriculture. Continuing, he says:
Statistics show that, compar-
ing the manufacturing with the
agricultural states, the value per
capita of agricultural products of
the farm in the former is $3.50,
while the value per capita in the
agricultural states is only $204.
This arises from two causes-frst,
that the per cent of workers in the
manufacturing states is 40 per
cent, while in the agricultural states
it is only 81 per cent, and second,
because the markets furnished by a
manufacturing center give more
than double the profits on agricul-
tural products than the markets
that may be reached in a strictly
agricultural community. Every
sourd principle Of political econ
omy, every incentive to prosperity,
and every dictate of sound business
Judgment demands that farmers,
above every other class in the
south, should lend their aid to the
fostering of manufacturing enter
prises at home.
Every farmer should encourage
manufactures and their allies, the
railroads. He should encourage
them to originate in his commun-
ity; he will insure a choice of
occupations for his children; he
will build up a lasting prosperity
in his community; he viii keep his
money at home and place himself
in the highway of the worlds
progress. In that he will display
some sound sense, sound logic and
sound craftsmanship"

The All-Water Travel to
 Dawson Beginning.
NOT A VERY GREAT RUSH
STEAMER TILLAMoOK STOPPED BY CUSTOMS AUTHORITIES.
A Small River Steamer and Eighty Tons of Coal Will Have to Be Unloaded Before She Can
 Depart.

The all-water route to Dawson may now be said to be fairly open. Sailing vessels and stern-wheel steamers have left for st Michael in order to be ready for the opening of the Yukon and various other kind of craft built at D,:tch Harbor dur ing the spring have come out of retire ment The first of the regular steamers got away yesterday, and from now on there will not be a day pass without one or more vessels starting out for the gold fields
 The Alaska Commercial Company's new steamer St. Paul was the first to get away yesterday. About one hundred miners who are going to try their luck on the Yukon went up on her. and all of them were in the best of spirits as the vessel steamed away. Louis Sloss Jr went up on the St. Paul and will inspect the company's stations on the river be- lore coming home: Captain ErslIine, the WeIL-known pilot, Is also making a pleas ure trip on the steamer
 The Alaska Exploration Company's steamer Leelanaw got away about p. m. She had big load of freight for the com pany's stores. but she only took away about sixty passengers. The company s river steamers and barges were all built chael to connect with the Leelanaw on her arrival The men who went up on the Sintram to put the river steamers and barges together will probably come back home on the steamer.
 The Tillamook with the stern wheel steamer Rideout in tow was to have sailed early in the afternoon for St. Michael, but she was stopped by the Custom house authorities. It was de- cided after an inspection that the vessel owners were ordered to remove a small river boat and S3 tons of coal from the decks before the vessel would be allowed to go to sea Something else will have to be put on instead of tle coal, as it will be required to replenish the steamers bunk CTS before she can reach St. Michael
 The steamer Ohio arrived from Seattle yesterday, and the Indiana is expected to- day. As soon as their cargoes of coal overhauled they will be turned into trans ports to carry soldiers to Manila
 Captain kempf and Messrs. Winship and Ransome, from the navy yard, sub jeCted the discarded steamer Centennial to another inspection yesterday. Their report will be made direct to the authori- ties at Washington, and the acceptance or rejection of the steamer will again come under considera tion
 The crew of the steamer Oregon did some quick work since her arrival She arrived from Portland last Friday morn ing and they discharged and loaded her and she sailed again yesterday afternoon for the Columbia River. Pretty quick work considering that she had to be moved from the Oregon dock to Folsom street wharf to get her outward cargo.
