THE PACIFIC COAST

The phrase has new and wider mean
the land where gold is found. Later il
has meant the western side of the CONT
nent, looking out on the Pacific ocean
The southern part of it became sanitar-
ium, the northern half a rough, rich coun-
try where pioneers struggle for a living
in hard conditions; the whole of it a land
of promise for those salf-sacrificing
enough to hold on in the face of many
obstacles and disappointments. To such
it has become source sometimes of
health-sOmetimes of wealth, no longer q
far-off land nor place for temporary spec
ulation-tine cities have adorned il. q
thrifty, intelligent population has found
happy homes there. Thus the Pacific
coast became much like the Atlantic coast.
only with the charm and disadvantages
of newneSS.
Within the last two years remarkable
change has come. Tho Pacific coast has
held the eye of the nation. Suddenly it
has sprung to commanding Importance.
Three new facts have done it.
First came the marvellous "finds'' of
Alaskan gold and the development of that
territory. When Seward lay diving he
was asked what was the greatest event of
his life. He replied, 1.-The purchase of
Alaska, but it will take the people gem
Grafton to find it out" The generation
has passed and the people have found it
out. And 1t is telling first of all on the
commerce and life of the northern part of
our Pacific coast. 1t has turned the tide
toward prosperity in the cities of the
Sound and is strongly felt in San Fran
cisco.
The second event telling thus on the
new life of the coast is the ACQUISITION of
the Hawaii islands. The full meaning of
that acquisition has not yet come to us.
But the western coast knows it means
moro commerce and SO enlarged pros
perity.
The third event is the result of our war
with Spain in the Philippines and later,
unhappily, with the Filipinos. 1t is near
" ended. lis sign .ficance is tremendous.
1t means a new outlook over the vast
Pacific. 1t means new relations and re-
sponsibilities, but a'so new commercial
gains in which the Pacific coast will be the
sharer first of all.
No wonder these three great events;
have thrilled the coast into new life and
into large expectations. No wonder they
see in -vision-not very far -away-the
peacefnI ocean fiecked with sails OF COM
merce that will bring the wealth of the
East to their western ports. There is vet
one other event-still below the horizon
but showing prophetic portents i'm the
western sky. Inssome form or other we
Will be brought into close relations-civic
and commercial-with China and Japan.
Our sphere of influence reaches over the
sea. The new life Of Asia will tell on our
western coast. Long have the people on
the coast longed for an outlet comparable
10 that which the dwellers on the Atlantic
The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1900-04-19

have long enjoyed. 1t is coming. We
may almost say, it has come. Much OF
Atlantic coast history has been made.
The Muse of History now dips her pen to
write out chapters Of western history
which will give new meaning to the kim
ship of nations and the unity of the race.
What now do these facts imply to the
Church of Christ? Westward lies the
missionary opportunity of the century
whether in home or foreign missions.
Indeed, they may well be said to be one.
The Pacific coast for Christ through home
missions means push on the world for
Christ through foreign missions. There
fore, tho strategic field for missions today
is in that vast strategic territory reaching
Sound and from the Sierras to the sea.
How is our Church meeting the situa-
ton? There are three Syn)ds ON the
coast, California, Oregon and Washing
ton. The people are chiefly Americans,
with the virtues and failings of that stock.
They are often in new and rough COM
munities or i'm cities freighted with vice.
They are enterprising. generally intelli-
gent, determined on some kind OF win
ming in the life struggle. What is our
Church doing for thenR Consider that
the churches are most of them small,
struggling-often ineffectually-witht the
prevailing immortality and unbelief, little
more than prote ,ts against currents they
cannot check; and it is plain we are doing
little for the salvation of region whose
position is strategic and on whose moral
character will depend much fer veal or
woe far beyond its own bounds.
AS to all these states, this may be truly
said: Life takes sudden shape in western
conditions. A decade decides century.
If the Church would give the stamp of
God to communities now plastic she has
not an hour to lose, fOr-plastic today
they become fixed tomorrow.
Besides, the Church serving the relig-
ious needs of that coast in this generation
VIII be preaching to the world in the next.
Asia-fUr good or ill-her good or ill and
ours-is at our doors. What voices shall
the dim multitudes hear? What hands
shall they clasp? Harsh cries fthe mar
ket or sweet tones of grace? Gritty hand
Of greed or the hand of Gospel fellowship
and love?
Our Church spent last year so, 40 on
the work of the Pacific coast. 1t should
be twice that sum. Shall she nave il to
spend?-Charles L. Thompson, DID,, in

A Fish Story.

The rapid growth Of the fisheries of the
United States has placed US far in the lead
of any other nation. The packing of salm-
on OH the Pacific coast was begun i'm 1866,
when the pack of Columbia river salmon
amounted to about 4 900 cans. In 1876 the
pack had grown to a total of $4,000 cans.
This same year canning companies began
using the catch of salmon OF the Sacra-
ment0 river, the outside river and Puget
Sound, 4 branch of the Columbia river,
and also salmon sent here from Alaska.
These new interests brought the total
pack of salmon for the year up to 1913, 747
cans. From the very start Of this indus
try up to the present time yearly in
crease has been made, with the exception
of Il very few years. The pack of the
Columbia river salmon showed large
decrease last year. The loss is attributed
to several causes.-New England Grocer.

THE Puerto-Rican tariff bill has
passed both houses of Congress and be-
come law by the presidents sigma
ture. 1t seems to us unwise as party
measure and wholly indefenslble when
measured by the broad principles of
equity which should govern the rela-
tons of this government with people
who trustfully welcomed our army of
occupation and builded high their
hopes ofpeace and prosperity under our
flag. 1t is doubtless true that there is
much misunderstanding in the minds
of the people OF this country as to the
real import of the measure, and true
also that it will work no hardship upon
the Puerto Ricans themselves, but on
the contrary be beneficial to them.
Nevertheless, it would in our judgment
be far better to let the sugar and tobac-
co trusts reap the benefit which would
come to them through the free importa-
ton OF the chief Puerto Rican staples
than to create in the minds of the
Puerto Ricans themselves the impress
sion that our great nation has been
guilty of breach of faith. If time re-
moves this impression the wisdom of
the measure may be more generally
ACKNOWLEDGED. The duties collected up
on Puerto Rican products, which are
only fifteen per cent of the duties inn
posed by the Dingley law and which
will be paid chiefly by the sugar and
tobacco trusts, are to be returned to the
island and expended upon needed pub
lie improvements.

No locality i'm the state affords greater
advantages for dairying than this little
county. We have rich valleys, pro-
ducing large quantities Of grain and
grasses; uplands wonderfully adapted
to the production of clover, the best
natural feed for dairy cattle, and thous-
ands of acres of untillable lands which
can be made ideal pastures, adding
materially to the incomes Of the own
ers. Figures published in THE ISL
AMBER March 20 show that less than
ten per cent of the assessed acreage OF
the county is classed as improved"
Many thousands of acres return no
profit to the owners. These conditions
should be changed. There should be
sheep or cattle feeding upon thousand
hills, and the bleating of the fiOcks and
the lowing of the herds would be a
most appropriate accompaniment to
the song of the reapers i'm the valleys.
