Free Trade Union Against Europe,

A free trade union OF the United
States with Cuba, Porto Rico, Mexico
and Canada, against the nations oi
Europe as . means of extending the
commercial supremacy of the United
States was advocated by Gen. James
H. Wilson of Wilmington, Del, in a
speech before the Commercial Club at
the Auditorium recently. Gen. Will
son spoke ON the subject "Our Rela-
tions With Cuba" but, after advoeat.
ing free trade with the islands as a
means of extending the business OF
this country and promoting the best
interests of the Cubans, he launched
into the broader theme, in which he
declared he shared in the views OF
President Roosevelt. Speaking OF
Canada, he said that free trade should
be given to the dominion only on con-
dition that it extend the American
tariff wall against Great Britain. He
declared also that the Monroe doctrine
applied to Canada, as well as the
countries OF Central and South Amer
ics, and should England ever make its
government of the colonies oppressive
it would be the duty of the United
States to interfere.

The discoloration is remarkably slight.
The Jordan has quite a delta at its

course because of the distractions
brought down by its own current.

Scientific observation justifies the

Dead Sea from the Jordan and other
sources during the year. During the
rainy season tho amount is very much
greater; during the dry season it 10
of course, very much less; but this
average will be maintained year after

which is very rapid because Of the in.

the dry winds which are constantly
blowing down the gorges between the
mountains.
This evaporation causes q haze or
mist to hang over the lake at all
times, and, when it is more rapid than
usual, heavy clouds form and thunder.
storms sometimes rage with great vio'
lence in the pocket between the cliffs,
even in the dry season. A food Of

it proper abiding place for anything

Just what can be done to hasten
the completion of the capitol, so that
the Legislature may have decent
place in which to work, is not easy to
determine. 1t is probable that the
Capitol Commission is doing what it
can, but there is reserved to the out.
ragged taxpayers the blessed privilege
of sending up an "emphatic protest"
and an "agonizing roar"
But with the completion of the capi-
tol, whenever that desirable consum.
nation shall be brought about, pub.
lie interest will center at Olympia
that will be the counterpart of the
pride and admiration which the resi-
dents of other States take in their
respective capital cities. Every resi-
dent of Minnesota is proud of St. Paul.
So are the people of Wisconsin proud
Of Madison. So it is in most of the
States of the Union. Since white men
first located north of the Columbia
River, in the late 40's, and the first
settlement was made at Olympia, that
delightful locality has been considere
one OF the beauty spots of the earth.
With the completion OF the local i'm.
provements that are planned and the
bettered condition of its public fin
ances it will become an attraction to
capital that will make it prosperous
city. 1t may, or it may not, become
an important commercial point, but
it is destined to be the political CEN
ter OF the State for all time. This will
make it an educational and a social
center.
The great disadvantage under which
the people of Olympia have labored
has been an inconvenient train ser.
vice. fortunately this has been re-
moved. Mails and trains now arrive
at and leave the city twice daily, in
addition to two boats a day to and
from Seattle. This gives the public
service to the capital that is equal to
the Accommodations enjoyed by most of
the older States.
The Improvements at Olympia that
the public now demands is the COM
pletion Of the capitol to such an ex-
tent that no more money need be
squlndered ON the old building, nor
health endangered by a large body OF
men and women being required to
work amid its unsanitary surround
ings.

NO PLACE FOR CUPID.
LOVE AND WAR ARE AT SWORDS
POINTS.

General Corbin Says That EARLY Marriages Of
the Younger Officers Of the Army Should
Be Diseourased-He Would Restore the
Canteen and Teach Warriors How to Sing.
The annual report of Adjutant-G Gen.
eral Corbin OF the army deals with
every feature of the service, and begins
with statement showing that the
army is to be reduced by December to
$4,000 men, of which about 2.S77 be-
long to the staff departments.
Among other accommodations the
following will doubtless cause the
most comment:
"The early marriage of the young
er officers OF the army, many of whom
are entirely dependent upon their pay
and allowance for support, is greatly
to be deplored and should be discour.
aged. A young officer should have
but one allegiance, and that should be
to to the service. Those without pri.
vate means must necessarily divide
their pay between the demands of
their Office and family. A consider
able number are required for service
in the Philippines, where living is ex-
pensive and the accomplishment of
this tour OF duty results in actual
hardship to officers with families"
General Corbin has the following to
say regarding the csnteen:
"The restoration OF the exchange as
it existed prior to the passage of the
act of February 2, 1901, prohibiting
the sale OF beer, is desired and urged
by the majority OF officers and men,
and by none more than those of pro-
nounced temperance views. Numer-
GUS reports confirm the views long
held by these officers that the old ex-
change contributed to sobriety, health
and contentment of the men. The
increase of desertions and OF trials for
infections Of discipline is by those best
informed, attributed to the abolition
OF the former privileges Of the ex-
charge"
Another recommendation of radical
nature is in recognition OF the in
fluence OF a" concord of sweet sounds"
upon the human mind. He says:
"The instruction of our men in
vocal music would be step in the
direction OF contentment and better
discipline. Every regiment should
have its marching song. Frequent
practice in singing. particularly dur.
ing the long winter evenings, would do
much to make the men satisfied to re-
main in quarters and away from the
bsneful influence of the bar-rooms
that exist in too great numbers in the
vicinity OF our military costs. These
bar-rooms are under the license and
law of the several States and are be.
yond the control of the military
authorities"

by which the reconstructed building
would become q capital sufficient for

was that the building should be COM

The explanations that have been
given for the delays that have been
permitted to intervene in the prosecu-
ton OF the work are rather devoid of
merit. 1t may become difficult to
locate the blame for the unfortunate
state OF the work - it stands at pres.

been offered by the architect and the
contractor will undoubtedly be thor
oughly exploited by the Legislature

Seibroff had to be taken to the cars

scene followed. Farmers, townspeople
and police threw themselves on the
Doukhobors and dragged or carried
them TO the station. The latter en-
circled each other with their arms
and seemed linked together as by
bands Of steel. While they struggled
they gave voice to their weird chant.
Some struggled 80 hard that their
clothing was literally torn from their

the station was crowded with people
and the excitement was intense. The
Doukhobors refused to strike, but
struggled blndly for freedom. The
captain shouted and cursed - the
bloodless battle became more exciting
