Japan Has Never Lost a Ship.

Japan aas Never Lost q snip.
From London Times.]
Since Japan's national navy began to
be formed thirty years ago they have
not lost single ship owing to faulty
seamanship. One vessel, a cruiser
built in France, disappeared on her
way out from Europe while still in the
hands of the French, and one, a gun
boat, sank by collision with a foreign
steamer in circumstances that did not
convict the Japanese of any fault.
With these exceptions, there has been
complete immunity from serious acct
dent, a remarkable record when we re-
member that, during more than two
centuries Immediately anterior to the
Meiji era the law interdicted the con-
struction of seagoing ships and Japan
csc sailors could not acquire any knowl-
edge of navigation beyond what was
furnished by coastwise voyages in
small junks.
No education could have been less
serviceable for the purpose Of modern
seamanship, and when the admiralty in
Toxic sent Japanese officers and crews
to Europe to bring out line-of-battle
ships and first-class cruisers the, pro-
ceedings seemed rash, if not reckless,
to those who knew something of the
qualities required for commanding
those huge vessels. Nevertheless, the
results have hitherto fully justified the
Japanese admiralty's confidence in its
officers, and the recent naval maneu-
vers furnish an additional evidence; for
certainly it stands to the no small
credit of the Japanese navy that abso-
lutte freedom from mishap should have
remarked these intricate evolutions
performed by two squadrons, aggregat-
ing fifty ships, during space of as
many days. There can be no doubt
about Japan's position low as a mari
time power in the Orient at all events.
Never before under any flag has such a
fleet assembled in eastern waters as
that reviewed by the mikado on April
3Oth.

WHISTLES.

Captain Brockaw Of the Fearless had
lot OF fun on Saturday with the wh;s-
Tie on the vessel. 1t is probable that
the port OF Honolulu is the only Amer
lean port having the great amount OF
shipping and steamer trafac that 1t has
and so little whistling when steamers
meet each other under weight
On Saturday morning the harbor was
especially crowded with moving craft
OF all kinds and the Fearless was AZ
work shifting the big ship Currier from
the navy dock to the Irmeard vharf.
She passed several boats on theway up-
town and blew her whistle. They all
answered. but In every case it took
them some little time to do it. as thew
were unaccustomed to the mode Of sig
mailing. The first craft to be whisslesi

Sunday and yesterday were rather
quiet along the wharfs, as there was
no work except at the Pacific Mail anu
Inter Island wharfs. The big Algoa
was discharging and the Claudine was
unloading sugar for the Australia,
which sails today for the coast at 1
p. N.
But one vessel departed on Saturday,
the Republic for the Sound in ballast.
Yesterday there was but one arrival
except the yachts from Lahaina- They
were escorted in from Diamond Head
by a feet OF smaller crafts and the
Bonnie and Eva. 1t was a pretty pic
ture as they sailed past Waikiki, all
punched and travelling at great rate
Of speed.
The Solace and Algoa were the OBJ
jective points of the many who make
the water front their place Of amuse-
ment on Sundays and holidays and the
big freighter and the navy vessel were
overrun from stem to stern by those
seeking information and looking
around for mere curiosity.

The young couple always together be-

STATE SCHOOL BOARD LAND FRAUDS.

This perennial subject for lucubration
has received lift in mid summer at the
hands of John P. Robertson, who
charges General Odell with selling his
knowledge Of land bases at $l.00 per
acre. General odell is the retiring
clerk Of the board, and is probably do
ing what other retiring officials have
done, making use Of their knowledge
gained while in the service Of the
government TO make living after going
out Of office. We know Of no law
against this.
The greatest abuse has come out Of
our more or less imperfect land system
from persons in office not giving the
people the benefit Of all they knew and
learned about the public lands while in
Office. II the state officials who are in
charge Of the records and in charge Of
the business for the the state see fit to
divide their services between the state
and those against whom the state should
be protected-or even use their position
10 defraud or plumber the state-then
the people are robbed. The man who
takes an Office and an oath to serve the
people owes them his entire allegiance
and undivided service.
General Odell's administration OF the
Office was easily and smoothly above ap-
proach. The usual legislative white
wash found all things in order there, as
it always does, and always will. The
$500 day bundle OF conceit and in.
sent to make laws and find
out about land frauds might as well hunt
for needle in the loft of
livery stable as hunt for school
land jobbery. II the present
state administration improves the
service a little in that department it will
do pretty well. That is what it seems
to be doing. II it does not add to the
sum total of corruption that has prevail.
ed in the administration Of our public
lands it will do pretty we'll. And that
is about all that can be expected. The
strong and the predatory are on the
outside in this case. Greater care in
making loans, putting the local attorney
under heavy bonds to protect the state
against recommending bad loans, is
about all that could be done to improve
this service.

4 COLLEGE PRESIDENT ON THE HUsT.
INGS.

During the recent local campaign in
Oregon there was seen again the unusual
sight Of college president on the huI-
tings, taking part in the local scramble
for offices, and telling the people to vote
a party ticket, and whooping il up for
one set OF candidates simply because
they were on his party ticket and not be-
cause he knew anything about their
qualifications for office.
As no one has had the temerity TO
tell the gentleman the truth, The
JOURNAL does not consider it'out of place
to say that such conduct is unbecoming
on the part OF the head OF an education
al institution that seeks support from
people OF all parties. II has said 80
many times, and will continue TO say 80
until we no longer have such an anomaly
at the head of an Oregon college as
its president on the hustings.
Recently this same college president
said in a public lecture that in passing
away the old know-nothing party had
left its votes TO the Republicans and
secret work to the Democratic party.
He did not bring particle Of proof Of
his assertions but simply sent it out
to the world as great guffaw Of raw
and undigested wind from a grass-belly
educator. 1t is only sample of the
stuff that is peddled 10 a confiding lot

enough TO not have to sell his soul for a
few thousand to the timberland syndi.
Gates that are robbing the people Of the
last Of their heritage Of valuable public
lands.
Corbett's views on great public ques-
tions are those Of the intelligent and
courageous statesman, compared to the
peddlers Of pearl-hsndled penknives who
steal their way into the senate from Ore
gon. The machine that controls the
Republican party IN Oregon has sunk 80
low it dare not honor a man with the
senatorship who stands for the CONNER
cial and business interests Of the state
and its people, Yet the Republican
party pretends to be the champion Of
commercial interestsand to favor the ex-
pansion Of shipping and business enter
prises,

THE POPULAR HOME LOAN.

The second step in the popular home
loan plan has been taken at Salem. The
school district had $4,000 bonds falling
due and il had about the same amount
outstanding in call notes at the bank
and Of private citizens. The bonds
drew s per cent interest and the call
notes have drawn from TO 8 per cent.
On the authority Of resolution adopted
at the last annual meeting Of the dis.
trict the school board was empowered
to borrow on popular subscription at
4 per cent on notes of the district. The
amount has been subscribed twice over.
This is the second time this commu-
nifty has adopted with success the plan
Of home loan sold at par to the peo-
pie. II is the intention Of the board to
fill the applications of the smallest de-
nomination first and place the loan
with bonaAde resident holders OF unem-
ployed capital. Thus the city has twice
demonstrated ITS ability to float it's own
debt among its own own people and
keep the interest at home. There is no
doubt idle money in the banks that
would take half million Of such bonds.
The fair capital Of our state is gaining
a reputation for. sound finance and good
business administration. When un-
limited funds can be had at four per
cent. and even less il is wrong 10 tax
property TO pay one cent more for
interest. All money taken in excess of
the lowest rate obtainable under good
business management goes TO build up
a moneyed aristocracy and impoverish
property owners. The reputation OF
conducting public affairs on the lines of
sound finance will add TO the value Of
property and value of citizenship.
One thousand copies OF a monthly
publication called The Truth will be
sent to all the daily newspapers
and the financial publications OF our
country this month setting forth the
merits Of the popular loan plan as adopt
ed by Salem. The pride of our city
should consist in being the best financed
city in the world. We 'can do this ii we
will aspire in this direction. Finance
must be from the standpoint Of the
interests of the taxpayers and the
citizens in good government. Amy other
finance is for special class and that is
undemocratic and unamerican.

ABOVE THE MORALS OF HIS PARrRY.

The greatest trouble with Hon. IL. W,
Corbett OF Portland is that in his life and
practices he is entirely above the morals
of the Republ lean party. In the first
place he is not impecunious. II he was
made senator no wouldn't have 10 dole
out offices ON percentage or become the
cheap servant of grasping corporations,
or even OF other bankers. For these rea.
sons he will be opposed by the whole
combination of active forces within the
party. Corbett il Senator would be
pretty nearly as big man as Mark
Hanna and he could put his foot on such
senators as Clark of Montana and QUAY
of Pennsylvania, and hence the corrupt.
ell elements of both parties that always
sell themselves 10 such senatorial corrup.
tionists in both parties will oppose Cor.

Gus ,antine Against the Product Said
to be Likely.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 9.-The Ex-
an er says: Though no action has
beer taken by the Federal officials here,
in lie matter OF placing an embargo
oh sugar from the plantations OF Oahu.
tb4 must pass through the port OF Ho-
noi ..lu in transit to the market, il is
probable that the product of these
pla1tations will be refused a landing
nc after. In regard to the situation,
John D. Spreckels said last night:
There is hardly a doubt that some
action will be taken regarding Homo
lulu sugar, but that need not alarm
any one as to the rest of Hawaiian
sugar. There are FIVE or six planta-
tivns near Honolulu, and while the
yield from them is considerable, the
loss would not affect the supply for San
Francisco. There are any number OF
ports from which sugar is being
shipped. While il is true that a great
number of vessels load at the principal
pOrJ, there is no reason why they
should not drop Honolulu and load al
one of the other ports, and this viii
probably be done. AS none OF the
ocher ports are infected, the shipments
from them cannot be stopped. The OahI
planters will not necessarily lose any
thing by the quarantine. They car
store their sugar until the plague il
over"
