Last of the G,enmorag.

A. N. Willis left Portland thi:
morning for Astoria on his way to
North beach. where he has the con.
tract of hauling the old iron from the
ship Glenmorag, that lies stranded on
the beach about three miles north oi
Ocean Park, and is being broken up.
1t Is expected that 100 tons of iron
will be saved from the vessel. A
wagon having tire Ia inches wide
will be used for the purpose of haul.
ing on the soft sand of the beach.
The Glenmorag was wrecked on
North beach several years ago. and all
attempts TO get her off the sands we're
unavailing. The owners in Great
Britain have spent several thousand
dollars trying to save the vessel and at
one time the feat was almost accom-.
plished. but the heavy surf on the
coast there beat her back into a posi-
tion broadside, and worse than before.
The attempt to float the ship was
then abandoned by the owners, and
she was sold to Contractor Kern, of
Portland. Mr.. Kern at first intended
to try bis hand at floating the ship, but
finally decided that the best thing to
do was to break her up and dispose of
the iron.
The Glenmorag was in first.class
condition and cost originally abou
$3.50, 900.

WHERE ARE THEY?

Postmaster-General Charles Emory
Smith has up to the present kept
pretty quiet and has apparently been
attending to the business of the postal
department, not having taken much
hand in making excuses for the presi.
dents mistakes, but like all the rest OF
Hanna's sucklings he has been called
upon to add his testimony or perhaps
lose his job. And he has opened his
mouth in support of his chief, but un.
fortunately he got his foot in it. He is
reportsd to have said:
"There is notion that the admins.
tration should nave been more ener.
getie, and when the Fllipinos pro-
longed their wal fare, should have
called for and sent forward more troops.
"But those who make this criticism
do not know that the administration
has recruited nearly 1000 men week
right along since congress adjourned,
on March 4. They do not know that
with these recruits and with the re
enlistments force of nearly 10000
men have been raised within that
time''
Now, where are these 10000 men
that have been recruited since the adj
journment of congress? About 10000
have been sent to the Philippines
81 nee that date hut what has hacomo
of the other 10000? They are not to
be accounted for in this country.
Alger must :have fem balmed" them
and enlisted them jim the service in the
unknown hence, Mr.. Smith had better
make another guess.

and from Florida to Washington.
Two. thirds of the states are repre-
sented, and the men and women who
are delegates are out to see what is to
be seen and to tell about it when they
get home. They will return home and
tell a tale that will read like a novel
for it will tell to the people of the na-
tion the wonderful resources of Oregon
both developed and undeveloped, and
the report of their visit will result in
very many people looking for locations
where Investments always yields good
returns, turning toward this state.
This "trip to Oregon has been revela-
tion to the visitors, for it has un-
folded to them, what one said, "the
most resourceful section of the nation
a country where anything is possible,
from whence the entire nation might
draw its supply of bread, meat and
clothing for fourth of a year and still
leave enough to supply local demands. "
By this visit of the editors to Oregon
will get a better advertisement than it
could have secured in any other way.
The people of the association will tell
what they have seen, and it will be
believed by those who read it.

RELIEF FOR CUBA.

The devastation brought about by
the insurrection in Cuba is hardly ap-
preciated by Americans generally. A
traveller now in the islands in cOnuec-
tion with movement for industrial
relief writes that people who talk
wisely about the reconstruction OF
Cuba surely confine their observations
to a car win dow. He has himself
journeyed over large area on foot, in
order to thoroughly investigate the
conditions, and he says that away from
of desolation, ''amidst which the only
houses are the nests of the birds in the
ruins of former homes of peace and
prosperity. Back from the railroad
nothing has been done toward the re-
construction of Cuba. One may walk
for days and see only ruins OF sugar
mills, the crumbling walls of plantation
houses, the idle fields overrun with
rank weeds and worthless grasses and
roads long ago given over to deer and
other wild animals" The writer
states that the Cubans are most will
ing to work, but that they can never
reconstruct the islands unless they
have help of the right sort and if they
do not get that help they will become
extinct as race. He declares that
unless the American people do some-
thing for the Cubans those people will
inevitably go to the wall.
Il is no doubt true that the Cubans
must be helped to reconstruct the is
land, and they will require great deal
of assistance. They are not very
prudent or practical people. They
have not had much business expert
ence. They need not only material
assistance. but are in want OF a know
ledge of practical affairs and of correct
business methods. But in order to
obtain this help they must give
satisfactory proof that they are dis
posed to deal justly with those who
help them. Capital must be assured
of protection in the islands and all
interest be given guaranty OF fair
treatment. This is entirely in the
hands of the Cubans themselves. and
they can have industrial relief and
enter upon the work of reconstruction
whenever they are prepared to accept
pacifcation honestly and give unques-
tioning adhersion to American policy
in respect to their future government.
Ontil they do this they cannot reason.
ably expect the relief they so much
need.

SOMEBODY HIT VERY HARD

The statement blurted out by Mr..
Havemeyer that the tariff is the
mother of all trusts-of course, except.
ing the sugar trust-seems to have hit
some persons in Pennsylvania very
hard.
Every time The tariff has been up for
revision, certain great captains OF
industry" have opened sumptuous
apartments in Washington and main.
tanned expensive ''lobbies" to secure
the highest possible tax upon foreign
products which otherwise might be
imported to COM pete with their own.
This is well known to the American
people, and they have also observed
that when the foreign goods has been
thus excluded, these identical ''cap.
tains of industry" were foremost in
organizing these com binations, to
stif1e competition and put prices to the
highest possible notch-Herald.

versaries as republic, where all men

versaries as republic, where all men
are free and equal.
American citizens are patriotic and
loyal, slow to resent authority, but
when aroused they will become
deamons. If driven TO desperation by
oppression their love of country would
vanish, for love of self and family pre-
dominate over all else. When man,
through no fault of his, is refused the
right to earn living for himself and
those dependent upon him, he ques-
tions the justice Of the government
under which he lives. and could readily
be driven to seek its overthrow.
Those who hold the rains of govern.
men and own the wealth of the country
have it in their power to maintain or
disrupt the nation. just dealing with
all will accomplish the former
oppression will bring about the
latter. IF they are true patriots this
NATHAN will stand for ages; if not it
may fall.
