One of the strong men of the south

One of the strong men of the south
west in every sense of the word was
the late Augustus II. Garland. He
filled many posts of responsibility,
and-was called to none in which he
did not acquit himself well. In the
course of long public career he was
governor of Arkansas, senator from
the same state, and attorney general
in the cabinet of Mr.. Cleveland.
Pro fessionally he took advanced rank
and was pleading case in the high
est court in the land when the end
came. Nearly his whole life was
passed In Arkansas. He will go into
the history of the state as a natural
leader and public man of exception
al capacity.

MISSING. THE VITAL POINT.

House and senate at Olympia have
passed the memorial urging congress
to appropriate $4,000 for the i'm
provement of the Snake river be-
tween Asotin and the mouth of the
Grand Ronde river. This stretch of
water is above Lewiston, and the pro-
posed Improvement is of local char
acter, having little or no bearing on
the problem of securing an open
river to the sea.
The key to an open river is the
construction of portage road around
the Instructions in the Columbia at
Cello, and the Improvement of the
lower Snake river. When these i'm
provements are made, the Inland
Empire will have an open river to
the sea. The government having
built the portage road and cleared
out the lower Snake, any individual
or company will be free tc put lines
of steamers on these rivers; and these
steamers can gather grain, fruit, ores
and other products in the Lewiston,
Palouse and Walla Walla countries,
transport them to Cello, transfer
them there over the portage road to
steamers waiting below, and send
them on down the river to Portland,
Vancouver, Kalama or Astoria, where
ships will be waiting for them.
This is The plan mapped out In
1898 by an eminent board of United
States engineers. "When the lower
Snake is made navigable,' says this
report, sit will add 200 miles to any
navigation to be affected by any i'm
provement at Cello and The Dalles.' .
1t is outrageous that congress has
gone on ignoring the recommends
tions of this board. while it has con-
tinued the wasteful policy of spend
ing millions of dollars for Improv-
auS CEluluS IltSIS VI IllS SsbSG anu Cu0
south. An example of this folly was
brought out Yesterday in the congress
sional debate, when Mr.. Hepburn of
Iowa stated t1at in the past twelve
years the government he's expended
81 100000 on the MUskingum river
In Ohio. A third of this sum would
have given us an open river to the
sea, since the engineer board esti-
mated the cost of the portage road at
only S454,0OO, aud not great sum
would be required to improve the
lower Snake.
If the government is not going to
improve and open such streams as the
Columbia and Snake, two of the great
rivers of the continent, it ought to
go out of the business of spending
money on rivers and harbors.-

EPISCOPAL CONFESSIONALS.
Undercurrent of Feeling Against Them
Among the EngIisu Clergy.
North American Review.)

A large proportion of Englishmen are
neither high, low or broad; theyA.do not
trouble themselves about questions either
of doctrine or ritual; they prefer sound,
sensible, practical sermon to any theolog-
ical discussion; they like well con-
Quoted m usical service; they respect a
parson who does his duty by tie siok and
children during the week, and, II he
chooses to wear vestments on Sunday,
they certainly do not think any more OF
his judgment; but, since it pleases him
land the women) and does them no in
jury, they offer no opposition.
This Kind of man does not enter readi-
ly into controversy, and refuses to at
tend party meetings. and 1t is.doubtful
whether as yet he has expressed himself
upon the present. situation. He is begin
ming, however, to watch events and to
get hold of the issues in question and
as soon as he Is convinced that the
Church of England Is in real danger and
ness of few hot-headed extremists he
will make his voice heard ana also his
power. In no circumstances will this
man, the average, intelligent English
man, return to the Roman Church, or
throw away the national and religious
freedom which was won by his fathers;
nor does he propose to be driven to take
refuge in Non Conformist chapel. The
moment that he has any suspicion that
the confessional, for instance, is really to
he re-established in the American Church,
he will bestir himself to some purpose,
and will be inclined to make very short
work with Anglican eonfessors.
1t is this man who creates sound opin-
ion in his church, and when that opinion
ia created it will certainly be against the
Roman party and as certainly 1t will be
irresponsible.

A MAN OF IRON WILL.

1t was q time of great political excite
msnt and party managers brought the
greatest influence to bear on Mr.. Frlck
to get him to agree to the terms demand
ed by the men. On that occasion he
showed the strongest trait of his charac-
ter by saying;
"If the President of the United States
and his entire Cabinet and the Republi-
can national committee and Andrew Car
negie In person should come to me apd
sue for peace would not yield one inch
takes all summer and all winter and eve
ry dollar / have in the world"
And he kept his word. He was deaf to
all entreaty. The only question he would
consider was how to defeat the strikers.
He thought of nothing else, even after
the Anarchist Berkman had shot him
and he Was upon bed from which 1t
was feared he never would rise. The
bloody battle of Homestead, when the
Pennsylvania State troops were called
out to protect the Carnegie works, and
in which SO many lives were lost, did
not swerve Mr.. Frick In his purpose. He
fought the strike out and won 1t.
Mr.. Frick and others were indicted
for granddaughter as a result Of the
Homestead riots, but the indictments
were afterward dismissed on the motion
of the prosecuting officers. Since that
time other anarchists have threatened to
kill Mr.. Prick. 1t is fact that he has
been nervous on that score. He is al
ways very careful whom he receives,
either at his home, his office, or his
hotel. UP to the time that Anarchist
Berkman made AN attempt to kill him,
and succeeded in wounding him seriously.
Mr.. Frick gave little heed to the threats
made against him, but since then he has
shown more concern for his personal
safety.
Mr.. Frick has one Of the most beauti-
full homes in the suburbs Of Pittsturg.
There he lives with his wife and two
children. During recent years he has
travelled extensively with them, and has
become a generous: patron of art In
his collsc tion of pictures there are many
extremely valuable oanvases. He paid
tlUuUUO IN 1919 ior Oagnan-DouVereU ,
"ChIist Breaking Bread.
If MIR. Frick has any politics he has
never given any strong evidence of it.
He was credited with contributing $40, 900
to the national Democratic committee in
1897, but he was also credited with rails
ing a $3.50, 600 fund for the Republican
party in the campaign OF 1888 Both as
sertions he allowed to go unden led. At
the same time they were brought up
against him whe n he tried to get in the
Union League club in 1895 and was re-
jeoted.
Personally Mr. Friok is a very pleasant
man. He spends very little time in social
pleasures and is wrapped up completely
in his business. Chicago Inter Ocean.

discovered that all the grease had been
used, so the crowd good naturally ran for

to do their turn. The dollar bill for
which the contest at the tree had been
waged still tuttered at height of some
ten feet above the marks of the fingers of

sent uan with ladder to recover the
dollar and give it to the tall Mr.. Trip.
