THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS.

The legislator who is now on duty
at Salem has an immense responsible
ity imposed upon him. He owes an
obligation to his constituency, as well
as to the members of his own party.
II he keeps in mind the best in
terests of the people, he will vote for
man who has every qualification
for senator. He will take into con-
sideratlon the experience of the in
dividuaf In public life and his stand
ing before the people. That man
must have some qualification other
than that he has "a barrel" which be
has tapped freely. He must be man
who does not parade boodlers all
over the state with a ''grip' full of
cash to perVert the will of the voters.
What has H. W. Corbett TO recon
mend Linn but his money?
Years ago in his prime, Mr.. Cor
bett made very acceptable senator.
But that time is long past. He is in
firm, both bodily and mentally. 1t
is a living disgrace to even attempt
to impose him upon the people of
Oregon.
He has unfortunately allied himself
with the worst element IN Oregon.
Graham Glass, stakeholder" who
boasts of his ability to thwart the
wishes of the voters, is at Salem, and
states openly as long as he is there
MIR. Corbett need not go. Attorney
Joseph, who was arrested for corrup-
tion in Portland about two years ago,
and who was saved from the "pen''
by hairs breadth, was showing men,
bers "courtesies" in the metropolis
yesterday, according to instructions.
The CHRONICLE regrets that members
DO not know the reputation of these
men and their assistants, else they
would shun them. To be seen with
them is damaging to the reputation
of ary member.
And too, every member who votes
for Mr.. Corbett,the man with the one
qualification, will find himself under
suspicion of having been bought up
like swine at the pen. lie may be
honest in his convictions, but that will
not relieve him from the stigma.
Why not support man who has
everything to endorse him for the
senatorship? THE CHRONICLES candi- /
date, Hon. NJ. c. George, is such al
man. He is sound on all party ques-
tions, has had service in congress and
is distinguished member of the bar.
He has no "barrel'' and needs none. |
He is in the prime of manhood. He
has no corruptionlsts hanging TO him.
His support comes from the better
element of the Republican party who
want to lay down all factional strife
and make new deal. He is the |
natural selection, and the CHRONICLE
believes will be chosen at Salem to
complete the term left vacant by the
''hold-up at Salem last winter.

The Republicans of Oregon do not
want any faction to rule. They are
heartily tired of factionalism. They
want senator elected, but their
choice is a man who has had nothing
to do with party VOWS. They want
peace, and this can never be brought
about unless conservative men are
elected.

Delaware gazette and state journal. (Wilmington, Del.) 1883-1902, 1898-12-01

Interesting statistics compiled by
the Boston journal show how the New
England States, except Connections,
suffered by the war with Spain. The
burden fell most heavily on Massa-
chusetts, that State having the most
men in the service, and ono of its
regiments being engaged in tho San
tiago campaign. Massachusetts lost
20S men, Maine Al, New Hamyshire
30, Vermont 27, and Rhode Island 0,
a total of 800. or the 29S Massachu-
sets dead only nine were killed in
battle, the excessive mortality per
cent, or more than twice that OF the
army at arge-being due to the raw
ages of disease. Leaving out Of tho
reckoning the regiments which had
practically no loss, and the mortality
rate for Massachusetts volunteers was
over 6 per cent. The regiment TINT
suffered most severely, tho Ninth, had
no killed or wounded. The reports of
diseases are imperfect, but tho cases
known show these losses in New Eng
land: Typhoid 81; other fevers (eS-
cept yellow fcver), 26; dysentery, II;
malaria, 10; pneumonia, 7; heart dis
ease. Z: yellow fever, 6. The number
of deaths from heart disease would
indicate that the physical examination
OF the volunteers was not so rigorous
as had been supposed.

the Cost Of o,lonis, lsxp.p,,op.

Harper's Weekly figures in an
interesting manner upon the probable
cost of the poll Ivy of colonial expansion
upon which President Mckinley insists !
upon embarking the United States.
Even so far as we have gone, it says,
it will be enormous. The annual cost
of our small army on u peace footing
is about S24, 500, 900. The cost of tho
administrative force and the miscel-
laneous and incidental expenses of thu |!
War Department is about 81, 000, 600,
making a total of little more than
s3l, 200, 600 The cost of the navy,
counting the appropriation for its in
crease, is about $4,000, 900. No mill
tary authority believes that we ought|
to maintain an army of less than 100000
men. The pay, travelling, Transports.
tion, and general expenses of the army,
rs it stood before the war. were about
10000, 900. On this basis the samel
expenses would amount to quite
$50, GOO, 600, for not only would the pay
OF the troops be multiplied by four,
but the cost of their Transportation
would be increased in much created
ratio. The cost of subsistence for the}
army would be increased from 81. 750, 000I
to at least $1,000. 600. The item oj
| quartermaster supplies would grow
from 50, 800, 600 to quite $40, 600, 600 foly
| several years to come, and after that
to at least S., 100000. There would bd|
an increase of expenditures for horse3
alone of s500,000, and of at least
| $1,000, 600 for the medical and ord
nance departments and other Incl
dentals. This estimate, which Isl
| moderate, shows an annual increase
OF s64, 000,000 for army expenses alone,
| if the army be increased to 100, 600,
| while the additional cost of new forth
fications, new post buildings, quarters
and barracks, would easily bring this
up to S65, COO, 600.
But it is very well understood, oven
by those who are talking of increasing
the army to 1000 men, that such !.
force would not begin to be adequate
to the demands of tho new colonies for
their defence and service at home, and
that an army of at least $50, 600 men
will be necessary for these purposes,
including the maintenance OF peace ut
home; and the statesman who is count.
ing the cost of annexation and eXpan-
sion, if there be such statesman in
the country. would be iinprudent to
estimate for an annual increase of the
army budget Of less than 500, 600, 600.
As to the navy, the Weekly estimates
an expenditure of at least Sl0o, 600, 600
for the purpose of bringing it to the
required condition for imperialistic
purposes, and an increase of annual
appropriations from the present figures
Of 50, coo, 600 TO S13, 900, 600, all tho way
to $50, DOC, GOO to $50, 000,000. Il iurther
shows that the new policy would cause
large additions to the civil. list, rs
there would be lots of official positions
in our colonial possessions. Theses
extra expenses would amount TO ns
least So, 900, 600, and tho Weekly esti-
mates an annual increase Of expendi-
lures for colonial defence and govern
ment Of the very considerable amount
Of sl63, 100000. S2

Anniversary Celebration.

The Saith anniversary of Hanover
Presbyterian Church was celebrated
last night week, the exercises
being appropriate and interesting. One
of the most entertaining features was
an address by the Rev. F. G. Jennings,
the new pastor of the church. The re-
port of Superintendent Porter showed
that there had been no deaths among
the scholars during the year. He re-
fsrred feolingly to the death of the
late pastor, the Rev. Lafayette Marks,
and in remembrance OF him the
scholars presented Mrs. Marks with a
basket of beautiful flowers. Flowers
were also presented to Pastor Jen-
nings. The music was in charge Of
III. Howard Carver.
