the publishers are now embarrassed"
to the tune of $500, 600, of which the
sum of SO, 500, ,0UU is due to the stock
jobbing, bond manipulating old
pirate, J. Pierpont Morgan. The
devil has indeed come by his own!
Occasionally some advocate of a
large standing army for this country
hobbs up with the awful supposition
that if we should find ourselves con-
fronted with war with some power
full European nation we would be un-
prepared to meet it because our regu-
lar army is so small. Such alarmists
should observe the difficulty Great
Britain is meeting with in mobilizing
an army of 10000 men in South Africa,
and then contemplate how long it
would take her to get an army of z00.-
600 or 10000 men across the Atlantic
to invade the United States. In such
an event We would certainly have
plenty of time TO organize volunteer
army that would bid defiance to the
world. The alarmist who clamors for
a big standing army GOES mot fear
European invasion. but wants it for
the purpose of coercing Americans to
put on the yoke of corporate greed as
represented by Hanna and his follow
ers. The advocate of an immense
standing army in this country is d tool
of the power that would Cypress the
common people at the point of the
bayonet.

COWARDLY SPANIARDS.
The Dfspicable Conduct of the Vfs-
caya's Crew at the Battle
of Santiago.

The contrast between the two nations
stands out very clearly in connection
with the vizcaya, says Ira Nelson Hollis
in the Atlantic. The torpedo boat Erics-
son ran close alongside of her, and sent
a small boat to take off all that were
alive of her crew. A few boats from the
Iowa assisted. The Vizcaya was on fire
fore and aft; the ammunition on board
was exploding, and the guns that had
been left loaded were going off one after
another in the intense heat, to say moth
ing of the proximity of the shore. The
position of the little craft has been de-
scribed as perilous in the extreme. Our
men risked their lives repeatedly to
help their fallen enemy; but no sooner
were the Spaniards transferred to the
deck of the Ericsson than they urged
immediate withdrawal without regard
to their comrades who had been left
behind. To the honor of our navy,
Lieut.. Ushur remained until every iv-
ing being had been rescued from the
burning ship. A similar scene was en-
acted around the two torpedo boat de-
stroyers. 1t was a case of mad panic
on the one side, and of perfect GOODNESS
on the other. One officer of the Viz
caya afterward stated on board the
Iowa that they were obliged to close the
gun ports on the disengaged side of the
ship, to prevent the men from jumping
overheard rather than face the Ameri-
can gun fire.

GOV. ADAMS RAILROAD PASS.
That DignitaFy Had an EneouAts1
with Revenue Stamps and
Was WOrsted.

"Gov. Adams acquaintance With tho
conductors on the Rio Grande railroad
saved him from paying fare or walk
ing into Denver the other day from
Sedalia," said fellow passenger. He
had entered the coach at the station
and when the conductor came along
produced the pass he carries all the
time. says the Denver Times.
".You do not have to attach rev.
enue stamps to railroad passes, ven
tured the collector of fares.
81 know that retorted the CHIEF
executive of the state. What makes
you suggest that have attached
stamps 20 my pass?
"'Because you have done so,' replied
the conductor.
"T guess not answered the gov
ernor; Il know better than that
"Then look here. Who has had
your pass?' and with this statement
the conductor handed it back to the
governor.
"The face of the pass was covered
with revenue stamps. They were stick
ing to it. having been attached by the
dampness gathered in sweaty pocket
book.
"'The cigars are on me- jocularly
asserted the chief executive as he
looked at the pasteboard.
"'It's all right, anyway said the
conductor, because know you and
know that this is your pass and have
its number. Were you stranger, how
ever, could not accept it,
"His excellency expressed gratifica-
ton at the accommodating train em.
ploye and promised himself that he
would soak the stamps off the face OF
the pass when he reached his home"

WANTED TOO MUCn.
4 Servant Girl Who Did Not Care to
Fiji the Place of
! Wife. -,,:;H~.

The hired girl out of a job cast her
eagle eye over the want notices of the
newspaper. Wanted, wanted, want
ed" she read in one or two line ads
straight down the column, shaking her
head at intervals, as if disappointed in
her search. Finally her face lightened
as she saw a loaded notice in another
column of more pretensions than its
fellows, says the Washington Star.
She turned to it and read it eagerly.
Then she threw the paper from her.
'What's the matter" asked the girl
with her.
"Read that" and she gathered up the
sheet and handed it over to the other
one, who read this notice:
"Wanted-A young and strong wom-
an of good disposition and habits, obedi-
ent and knowing her place, willing and
ready, active and efficient, to cook,
wash and iron, do general housework
and take care of children; evenings and
afternoons off when possible. Apply,
with references, etc., ETC."
"Well?" said the reader.
'It's not well, at ALL" responded the
one looking for work. 'That man,
whoever he is, is advertising for wife,
1 should say from the advertisement,
and I'm not looking for that kind of
job. Just a plain hired girls place
is good enough fer me.''

THE PEANUT RoAsTER.
where and Tho of Them
Are Sold Annually.

The peanut roasters of black iron,
such as are commonly seen in the city
streets, are likely to have capacity of
20 quarts. Such roasters are sold in
sizes ranging from ten to twenty-eight
quarts. Peanut roasters are made to
hold three bushels, which makes a
roaster as big as a barrel. Such pea
nut roaster would be set up at public
resort at the seashore, or perhaps at
fairs, says the New York Sun.
There are combined peanut roasters
and warmers made in various sizes, the
warmer having glass sides and hot
water reservoir below. Separate pea
nut warmers are made of various ma
terials or combinations of materials,
including tin, iron, steel and copper,
and they are made in variety of shapes
and sizes, and equipped for heating by
charcoal or oil.
There is an automatic rooster of
which the cylinder is turned by small
steam engine attached to the crank,
which serves to attract attention, and
is oftenest seen at the seashore and
other places of resort. The most elab-
crate and costly peanut outfit is the
peanut wagon, which is equipped with
a roaster and warmer and is drawn by
a horse.
There are more peanut roasters sold
now than ever. Indeed, thousands are
sold annually. They are used all over
the country, and in other countries,
too, for people eat peanuts pretty much
everywhere nowadays.

COSTA RIGA BANANAS.
Delicious Fruit Comes from the West
Indian Island-Crops the Whole
Year Round.

"The best bananas grown in the
world come from Port Limon, Costa
Rica," said New Orleans man to q
Washington Post reporter.
They are shipped from Port Limon,
and the country grower gets about 80
cents per bunch in gold. He is noti-
fed by wire from the seaport when to
cut, and has two days in which to gather
and deliver to the railway. Trains COM
posed of well-ventilated cars take the
fruit TO fast steamer, which is wait
ing to convey it abroad. The punches
Will average about IA hands each and
each hand has from II to IS bananas.
When the bunch gets to New Orleans or
New York they are worth about four
dollars each, a tremendous advance over
the price paid the Costa Rican pro-
ducer.
The planter, however, is surer of q
safe profit than any other person hand
ling the fruit. Jamaica negroes do all
the labor attendant on the planting,
culture and cutting, being better adapt
ed to the work than the native peon.
Jamaica bananas often make a finer
but are not so prolific as the
Port Limon product. The best planta-
tions of Costa Rica are subject to over
flow and the waters deposit silt that
greatly enriches the soil. Crops are
ready for cutting the whole year
round"

ILL-ADvISED CHARITIES.
Loss to Those Needing Aid
Some Instances.

What takes much away from the
strength of charitable work followed
by the leisure classes is the woeful
misunderstanding of the needs of the
people whom they would help. For
instance, recently a body of intelligent
New York women formed themselves
into an association ''to give practical
help to farmers wives in isolated
places" The idea was, of course, an
excellent one; the field exists for ben
efcial work. but what were the means
OF ''I7'Gctici nelp" devised? To "fur-
nish looms, spinning-wheels and knit
ting-needles, with proper instructions" I"
to farmers wives SO that they might
learn how to make ''lovely embroidery"
which would command high prices in
the large cities!" Almost on the same
day company of wealthy Ohio wom-
en- formed an organization for 'the
better understanding of the higher
moral laws by the domestics in our
honest" A Chicago organization, just
formed, declares for its purpose the
providing of ''clean and elevating even
ing amusements for the girls and sales
women of our large stores" All these
charities are seriously entered upon,
are well-intentioned, but they show a
pitiable ignorance of needed reforms.
Our farmers wives are not sitting up
nights looking for something to do.
God knows they need no further bur-
dens, no more Industries" their need
is for more rest, for more forms of
recreation, which means cessation
from labor. Our servants do not stand
in need of higher morality as much
as they do of more practical knowl,
edge of their work and more consid,
GRAFTON at the hands of their mis-
tresses. Our shopgirls and saleswomen
are not clamoring for 'clean and ele-
vating evening amusements" so much |
as that women shall shop little more

CHOOSING BRIDESMAIDS.
Prospective Brides Should Seiect
Girls Who Walk Well with Grace
fully-POised Heads.

'In selecting bridesmaids" said she
of the emerald and diamond ring to the
New York Commercial Advertiser
writer, ''it is not beauty that counts
so much as style and carriage. Most
brides take a great deal of pride in
their bridesmaids costumes and want
them to show to the best advantage
1t is very Important that brides
maid should walk well. The edding
marches are more suited to grand opera
stages than church aisles, and while
Elsa's or Lucia's attendants can walk
in gracefully to such music, the most
graceful of girls is apt to sway and fall
ter trying to keep time and step with
the same strains. I've watched bridal
processions and I've seen radiantly
pretty girls lose all effect of their good
looks by hobbling walk. A brides
maid should glide, not limp or hop.
The beauty of a faultless frock and the
stateliness of picture hat vanish when
the wearer is awkward and obviously
i'll at ease. The bride herself is helped
by her long train, her dropping head
and the leaning on her fathers arm be-
fore and on her husbands after the Ger
emony, but the bridesmaid wears a
short gown, carries her head erect,
walks up and down beside another
girl, and so has her own grace alone
to depend upon. A girl who walks well,
whose head is well-poised on her shoul-
ders and whose hair arranges well
makes a good appearance as brides
maid, and-well, all mine are like that.

CRIMES OF COOLIES.
The Low-Lived Mongo1s Are as Cum
ming as Foxes and ms Cow
ardIy as Wolves.

They are queer crowd, these coolies,
whether on land or sea, says the Lud-
gate Magazine. Cunning as foxes and
cowardly as wolves, they resemble the
pariah dogs of their own cities in point
of inability to hunt any prey save in
packs. I heard of an instance where
a gang of them, employed as navvies
in the cutting of railway, killed their
overseer with shovels and fled into the
bush. Nobody was ever hanged for the
crime, because some 40 of them were in
it-and. that would have been rather
large consignment to condemn, even
in the far east, where human life is SO
cheap.
There are 25O,OOO Chinese in Bang
kok alone, and they do not appeal to
ones cordial emotions-very much the
contrary. And should this catch the
eye of any intending visitor to the far
east, ! would urge upon him the un-
wisdom of venturing to spend night
on Chinese junk without so much as
"a revolver to defend himself with. Oc-
casionally Il Eur. 2eln IS discovered by
the marine police floating on the wa

it is highly probable that he had been

pie are born to different ends, and the
Chinese contempt of the European IL
frequently justified by facts.
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1899-12-02

In the Northwest, because it is the
greatest wool market in the country,
and besides it has every other natural
advantage in the way of cheap fuel,
favorable sites for factories, and low
living expenses.
To give the people of The Dalles an
idea OF what advantages wooden mill
would be to the place. we have ascer-
talned from one of the mills that Is
operating in this state figures as to
the number of hauds employed and
the daily expenses of three-set mill.
This mill is employing lbs hands, and
the average daily wages and expenses
are 5000, that is the milling company
pays out to laborers and for wood and
material 5000 every working day OF the
year. Further estimates of the ex-
penses of six.set mill are that the
daily expenses would be about $425.
1t should require no argument to con-
vince Dalles property owners and
business men of the stimulus such an
establishment woul6 be to trade, for
Sl27 800 paid out annually here for sup
plies and in wages to 250 laboring
people would make vast difference in
business some may argue that
wooden mill is not advantageous be-
cause the wages paid operatives are
low. This, however, is mistaken
idea. Men and women who are en-
Jployed in such concerns at low wages
spend the greater portion of their
salaries for the necessaries of life,
therefore 5000 people working at 81 to
81. so day are more benefit to place
than so persons drawing wages that in
the aggregate wonld amount to the
wages of 200. 1t, of course, is desirable
that industries be started here that
will pay high wages, but they are not
absolutely necessary to the prosperity
of the town. An industry that will
employ 200 or 25O people at an average
wage of 81 day would be a great
benefit to every business enterprise in
The Dalles A two.set wooden mill |
would do this, and we believe it is just |
the thing that is needed here.

WHAT WE NEED.

People of The Dalles are displaying
commendable enterprise in prosecut-
ing coal prospects, and in the effort
being put forth to build q railroad
into the interior, but while they are
thus engaged in starting enterprises
that will certainly result bene6cially
to the town, they should not overlook
the advantage to be gained from The
starting of manufacturing industries
The needs of manufacturing in The
Dslles, and the stimulus concerns en-
ploying large numbers of operatives
would be to business in the city have
frequently been referred to in these
columns, and it has been our hope to
see the people of the town, who own
property, offer inducements that would
bring capital here to invest in manu-
facturinp. It has ever been our belief
that The Dalles was better located for
woolen factories than any other place
