What Was the Oregon Doing P

The probable loss OF the United States
battleship Oregon on Pinnacle Rock,
coast of China, 30 miles west of Chefoo,
recalls to memory the query which
arose in many minds when the news
reached this country OF the blowing up
of the Maine, in the harbor of Havana,

there for" If it was to protect Amer
lean interests" it might be well to in
quire what those interests were and

Oympid Stdndard, {Dtm.)

its own opinion on matters appertain-

of people rise in protest against such

WHEN Attorney Funk has nothing
better to say Of the grand Republican
ratification banquet at the Olympia
hotel, last evening, than that it was a
mice little party" we are compelled
to believe the assertion that those pres
ent took recess at 9 80 and went home
to bring out their wives in or der to
make a respectable showing. Well,
we'll; what would they have done had
they ran up against an attempt to
hold one of those old.fashioned ratifi-
cation rallies with only a "feast of
reason" for an attraction? The Ia
dies, it is said, responded to the call of
suffering humanity Gas they always do,

gloom. 1t was owing entirely to their
presence that the affair was not an ig.

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

U. s. Department of Agriculture,
Climate and Crop Bulletin of the
Weather Bureau, Washington Section,
for the week ending July 10th:
In the western section of the State,
the weather was showery and change
able during the fore part, but without,
rain, and pleasant during the last four
days. The fore part was, therefore
poor for hay-making, and considerable
hay was caught down and spoiled I;
also some was lodged and over-ripe;
but the closing days were excellent
haying weather. All crops made
splendid growth, the sunshine of the
last three days being very beneficial to
all kinds of vegetables. Root crops
and potatoes are doing finely, except
that some blight has been noticed in
potatoes. Hops are two weeks farther
forward than usual, and are fairly free
from lice.
In the eastern section, the weather
was ideal for haying and harvesting,
and was favorable for the filling Of
spring wheat. Oats in Spokane
county are reported as having been
blighted. This was probably due to
dry and hot weather in June. Spring
wheat also suffered from the same
cause, but not to the same extent, and
q portion OF the crop will be good,
another portion fair, and a consider
able share, in the dry localities, will
be less than half crop.
Brisk to high winds have shelled
out considerable fall wheat. This
was owing to uneven ripening, which
caused a delay in cutting, as, while
some parts of the fields would be ripe.
other parts would be much too green
to cut.
The harvesting of fall wheat is now
under Way in Spokane and Adams
counties. and throughout all the
Walla Walla country. The reports
nearly all agree in stating that the
yield is somewhat above the average.
and OF very good quality.
Spring wheat cutting will begin in
about ten days.
Corn in Klickitat county needs rain.
vegetables and fruits are doing we'll.
Early peaches, apricots. and pears are
now ripe.

What an Eminent Chinaman Thinks

There is no doubt but that the
mantle OF Confucius has fallen upon
the shouldersUf Ii Hung Chang. one
of the richest and most influential
men, a. we'll as the brainiest, in the
Chinese Empire. Under these cir.
cumstances, his opinion regarding the
present turbulent condition of his
country possess special interest.
Chang is radical in his views. He de-
clares that China cannot be dismem-
bered. In his message to this coun.
try, published in the Chicago Ameri-
can, Hearst's new paper, the Vice
Roy says: No influence "can do
away with five hundred millions OF
people by wave of the hand. 1t
may not be difficult to defeat us, but
to conquer us will be hard job. I as
sure you. 1t is like eating Chinese
meal. A COURAGEOUS European, or
American, may try it, but doubt
thathe will digest it."
In referring TO the persecution OF
Christians he says: "Let US assume
that couple of hundred of our Budd-
hists went to your country to con.
vert your people; and to preach, for
instance that, unless they want to be
eternally damned, they must refuse to
submit to compulsory army service
merely because the new religion they
have imposed upon us says so. Your
missionaries ask our people every day
to break the laws of this country and
to refrain from obeying the laws. As
to the persecution of Christians, our
government has never engaged in any.
nor encouraged any. Christians have
been killed just as Chinese are killed
in San Francisco, New York, in the
Dutch Understand where not? We
employ no missionaries, no proselyte-
makers. Of any kind. We are not
proud, but we are too smart, to pre-
scribe to anybody the fashion in
which he shall pray to his God. We
never ask living being to worship as
we do. One of the most pernicious
and dangerous of your idiosyncracies
is to ask and force people to subscribe
to a certain form Of worship. We
never do that"

Affairs at Nome.

The government having absolutely
refused to furnish transportation for
stranded miners at Cape Nome, it now
looks as if it will be impossible for the
deluded victims to get cut without
literally digging up" passage-money
or doing as the Fraser river miners did,
nearly half century ago, when they
took possession of ship and worked
her back to civilization. Capt. Wright,
her owner, was made to give the order
for return passage to his crew with a
rope around his neck, but in this
instance it may be difficult to get tile
grasping corporation in as close quar-
tiers, nor may it be necessary really to
deal with principals 10 such an emerg-
ency.
The steamship Garonne, which ar
rived at Port Townsend Monday with
300 passengers from Nome, reports
much excitement existing from small
pox, which has become epidemic and
three deaths have resulted from it.
There are 20 or 80 cases reported, and
it is surmised that twice that number
really exists in the many tents along
the beach. 1t is said that it originated
from two well-developed cases on the
steamer Oregon, June 10th, when the
passengers were forced ashore at night,
without inspection. The disease soon
spread and made such Roadway that
the military authorities cannot cope
with it and Gen. Randall has appealed
to the citizens to raise funds and
build hospital. A special detail has
been made to enforce sanitary regu-
lations. The feeling against the
commander Of the Oregon is intense,
and evidence is being collected for his
prosecution when the U. s. Court Of
ficials arrive. Considerable money has
been subscribed for that purpose.
Some miners, however, take the view
that he is amenable to the mining
law which is much surer of decisive
results-lynching.
The purser of the Garonne says
that all who have money will soon
leave Nome, but thousands have no
means to get away, and their condi-
ton will be horrible. He says that
before the ship sailed he was ap-
preached by many men who had from
$40 to $50, which they offered him for
the privilege of working their way
home.
By the steamer Sequoia, which ar
rived at Seattle yesterday, came the in
formation that the number of cases Of
smallpox had increased to 200.

If the currency question is settled.
as the gold-bugs insist it is, why in
hades do they kick so dreadfully when
ever the ghost" of free silver appears,
in cleaning phosphorescence, gliding

tiresome to keep persistently kicking

are such babies as to be pleased with
their rattle, is it not unkind TO deny
them the privilege of playing with it,

THE friends Of Charles 8. Voorhees,
are advocating his claims for the CUB.
ernatorial nom ination, and the Pr.
asserts that he is the man the Rogers
contingent will be likely to center
upon to down any stampede to Lewis.
One OF the principal obstacles in the
way, however, is to obtain Mr.. VS.
consent. He is reported to have said,
time and again, that he would not be
q candidate.
