MANILA, May 14.-Senor Buenca.
mino, at one time member Of the 30.
called Filipino republican cabinet, who
was recently liberated by General Otis,
announces that he has become recon.
ciled to American sovereignty and that
he will devote his influence to bringing
about peace. He has sent proposed
peace platform for the national Filipino
party to the insurgent leaders in Ma
Mia and to the insurgent generals, in
cluding Aguinaldo, in the field.
This platform declares that it is i'm
possible for the Filipinos to exist as a
! nation without the protection Of the
United States and consequently they
must recognize American sovereignty
and strive to attain under constitution
the utmost liberty possible.
Continuing, Senor Buencamino urges
that the Filipinos are incapable of self
government. He says:
I'm our independent government the
most predominant notes Were abuse and
immorallties, the offsprings Of ignorance
and the inherited vices of Spain, by
which the Filipino regime was ren.
dered olious to our own people
Therefore, he contends, American
control is necessary to prevent civil
strife

The rumors OF European intervention

the stereotyred announcement from
Washington that Mr.. Mckinley will take
no initiative ''unless jointly invited b,
Great Britain and the Boels.'
The World has met this dodge with the
obvious truth that such an attitude puts
1t in the power of the aggressor or the
stronger nation in any war to prevent
mediation by simply refusing to ask for
it, II the good Mr.. Mckinley were to see

Big Cargo Of Lumber.

"OAKIAND, Cal. Feb. 19.--Vhe largest
cargo Of lumber ever consigned to TINS
mort is now being discharged. 1t consists
Of I 200 900 feet of Oregon pine and was
towed to this city by the tug Sampson"
The foregoing is from the Tacoma
Ledger Of the Goth inst.
It is an attractive news item from
bright paper. but it would have been
more attractive for its readers here if that
PAPER had stated that that cargo OF lnm-
her vas from Wilson Brothers mill OF
Aberdeen. This fact has been asccrtaned
by the writer from Capt. a. I. Stream,
who commands SO well the big tug
"Sam,,son." The genial captain is Il
veteran sailor having commanded the
first tug that ever entered Grays lIalhor.
He brought the machinery for the first
mill built by q. II. Emerson, the pioneer
mill man on the lIarbor, in 1882. at llo-
uniam; towed the first cargo of lumber
from the Harbor; and it is very appro-
piate now that he should be the one to
tow the largest cargo of lumber that ever
left Aberdeen and the largest that was
ever consigned 20 so old and large city
as Oakland, California.
Capt Stream first entered Grays llar-
Dor with the schooner "llerea,' in 1917
after salmon. One Of the places for drop
ping mail then was a box naled to Il tree
on the Wishkah river and over the box
was the following: "I.eave Sam Benn's
mail here" This was probably the first
post office at the head of the Ilarhor
1t took four days for Capt. Stream to
make the late trip from Aberdeen to Oak
land with the large cargo of lumber men
toned by the Ledger, no difficulty having
been experienced in getting out OF the
lIa,hor as soon as the weather settled or
cn,onc, the trip being Il very delightful
Que. This large cargo OF lumber and q
similar one as to quantity recently ship.
