The Presidents Philippine Policy.

Ocean Grove, N. j., Aug. 2S.-Pres-
ident Mckinley, in a speech here this
Afternoon, said:
81 believe that there is more love
for our country and more people love
the flag than ever before. Wherever
the flag is raised it stands not for des-
potsm and oppression, but for liberty
and opportunity and humanity. and
what that flag has done for ns, we want
to do for all peoples and for all lands
which by the fortunes OF wal have come
within this jurisdiction. That flag
does not mean one thing in the United
States and another in Porto Rico and
the Philippines.
"There has been some doubt in some
quarters respecting the policy of the
government in the Philippines. see
no harm in stating it in this presence.
Peace first; then, with charity for all,
establish a government OF law and
order, protecting life and property and
occupation for the we'll being of the
people who will participate in it under
the Stars and Stripes"

sugar Factory VIII start.

Joseph Barton, manager of the Ore.
gon Sugar Company, is making prelim-
mary arrangements for starting fac
tory for the seasons's run. The factory
will start about the 18th of September.
About 100 men will be employed at
the factory, as the factory will have a
much larger run this season than last.
In fact there is a certainty OF having
more than twice the amount Of beets
to work. A great deal Of labor will be
required in harvesting the beet crop,
which will commence within a very
short time. There will consequently
be a strong demand for labor in that
vicinity during all tie fall season.

CUP CHALLENGER LEAKING.
Accident and Towing Believed to he
the Cause.

New York, Aug. 2S.-The Tribune
Gays: Men whose opinions and yacht
ing knowledge are respected and es.
tened declared yesterday that the
Shamrock was twisted in the midship
section and that towing had caused
strain which has worked her plates.
One yachting expert who has built
yachts aud has docked hundreds of
ships told Tribune reporter last even
ing that in the afternoon he was sur.
prised. while looking at the English
cup challenger, to see that che was
badly twisted in the midship section.
THE warp is quite apparent" he
continued, Ito any one who knows
anything about the lines of yacht
/ fancied that detected the twist yes
terday afternoon. am sure of it to-
day. as by tightening, the Shamrock is
much higher ont of the water today
than she was yesterday. Naturally
towing caused the straining and made
the plates draw and on that account
believe the theory of leak Is quite
probable. IL the yacht came over on
the port tack the tendency would be to
strain the hull to starboard, and such
a strain would undoubtedly cause the
plates on the port quarter to spring"
Others believe that the leak or strain
probably was the result of the acci.
dent which happenei to the Shamrock
when she ran aground in her trial
trips with the Prince of Wales Britain

Astoria, Aug. 26.-The long looked
for British bark Macduff arrived in this
evening. 1872 days from Calcutta. She
met with no accident. and was at no
time in distress. Her delay was due
entirely to the weather and the foul con-

drawn from the imagination of soldiers

The Macduff came round the south
coast of Australia and met some severe
weather and one cyclone off New Zea.

The Mercantile Reorganization Com
pany has recently been incorporated in

enterprise. 1t is expected that the
corporation will he launched in time
for the fall trade. 1t is proposed to
buy retail stores in cities having a
population of 10000 or more. The
company expects to control from 500
to 1900 stores throughout the country.
Many merchants, it is said. have al
ready signitied their intention of join.
ing the combination.
Former propIietors OF stores absorbed
by the corporation will be retained as
managers and will have interests in
the stores. They will become stock
holders in the company. 1t is pro.
posed to control the output of certain
mills and purchases will be made in
immense quantities.

Wake cooa Coffee.

How to make good coffee Is one of the
problems seldom solved in domestic life.
The coffee belongs to the chincona
family. The leaves are nght-green and
about five inches long. The flowers are
white, very fragrant and grow in clust-
ers. The fruit is at first green in color
and then when ripening turns from green
to red. The fruit contains two seeds,
grown tight together. These seeds are
the coffee beans.
Purchase your coffee freshly roasted,
grind II or have it ground and mixed
with, that is If you like, the proper pro-
portion of chicory. Keep the ground cof-
of its flavor is lost. The addition of
chicory is merely matter of taste;
Eight out of ten people dislike 1t and
won't drink coffee which contains it.
That is, If they know 1t. Pure Java or
Java and Mocha mixed are the best cof-
fees.
Now for the coffee pot. To those who
like coffee made without an egg the old
fashioned filter pot is used. But | main
tain and always will that coffee made
is not so good 1t lacks richness. So L
use the plain, everyday coffee pot. For
four people use a good-sized cupful Of
coffee. Beat one egg and mix thoroughly
with the coffee. Put in coffee pot add

Just one more word. Be sure that the
water used in making coffee is fresh.
Never use water that has been boiled for
any length of time. 1t makes coffee in
