| The democrats had chance to play q
very smooth trick on DR.. Tuttle, but
advantage was not taken of the open

discussed by the unterrified. In this
| land Of ours 1t is not necessary that a
man be nominated by political con-
vention or in any other manner that ne
may run for office. The ballots are al
ways prepared so that voters may ex-
press their choice for Office. even If
they write the names of their favorites
on the tickets. The fact that no one
was nominated in opposition to DR..
TuttIe killed all interest in the election
The vote in the city will be very small,
although that of the country precincts
will be heavier as an election is always

is likely however, that not more than
500 votes will be cast today, many plac-
ing the estimate much lower. II this
transpires to be the case, 1t would have
been the easiest thing in the world for
the democrats to get several hundred
men to go to the polls and write the
name Of some member of that party
on the ticket. BY carefully selecting
the men, the democrats might secretly
carry out the purpose and bring about
the election OF an unnamed candidate.
But they did not try this plan, and Dr.

The steamer Navarro will not con-
tinue on the run between the Columbia
river and Coos bay. She has been in
commission only one month, but will be
taken off owing to the slack condition
Of business. The Navarro is owned by
the California & Oregon Steamship
Company. The officials report that it
would be a losing game to continue her
In the service longer. They report that
during the balance of the winter there
will not be enough business between
Portland and the Coos bay points for
'9ne steamer, and that it will be an easy
matter for the Alliance to make port Of
entry calls there just as she has been
doing while en- route to San Francisco.

In its market report of yesterday, the
Portland Journal says that the egg
market today showed an additional
weakness and prices went down to 35c
with q bang. Even at this figure 1t
cannot be said that there is any real
strength in the market. The receipts
are now beginning to show up with a
largeness that simply staggers the com
mission men. Most Of the eggs COM
ing In now have been saved up for sew
eral weeks by the farmers. and when
the prce reached the top at 40c the 9TH
er day everybody thought that 1t was
time to ship-but 1t wasn't, and the
larger receipts caused the market to be-
come frightened and the result was a
severe decline in the quotations from
the 40c figure. From 40c the price
went to 371ac, and today 1t went down
an additional 2Rc and fell heavily at
S5c. The future of the egg market
depends altogether on the weather.
Warm rains will bring larger receipts
and consequent decline in prices,
while severe cold would have tend
ency to cause falling off in receipts
and the usual result-an advance in
figures.

A Municipal Sloven.

They are still trying to explain that little
matter of municipal election out in st.
Louis, where the voters recently declared
majority for the old crew of municipal
boodlers whose game Of graft and crime
had been completely exposed by the city
attorney, Mr.. Folk The people who are
supposed to stand for decency in CRY gov
eminent are having a hard time adducing
reasons for the Endorsement given to the
bride takers who were returned to Office,
and perhaps that is why they have made
the remarkable statement that the voters
were offended because Mr. Folk had
brought shame on the community and be-
smirched the reputation of St Louis. At
the outset of the anti-bribery campaign,
when the finger of the law began to point
to certain rich men and aldermen, a cry
was raised that 1t would never do to en-
gage in so scandalous proceeding an
investigation and general prosecution on
the very eve of great exposition. to which
all the world was invited After the fair,

Alien Invasion.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

There can be no doubt of the duty of
nation to guard it's doors. The time
of unregulated sentiment has passed when
it was fashionable to hold that a man
had a right to claim entrance upon our
soil simply because he was a man. The
soil of the United States is held by it's
people; held. 1t may be, for the good of
the human race, for the benefiting of all
the world. We owe our duties to the other
nations, but one of those duties is to
achieve a worthy national character. In
the working out Of that character we
have a perfect right to isolate ourselves
if we conclude that that is best. The mo-
ment has never come when we have been
willing to do that Undoubtedly there is
now a growing disposition to restrict the
inflow of new citizens. though the supreme
self-confidence of the nation has not yet
lost faith in it's ability to ''assimilate all
who come" 1t is certainly time to un-
derstand that "assimilation' is not pre-
ciseIy the word to describe the process
that Is going onto realize that what is
actually happening Is the fusion Of the
diverse characteristics of aliens with our
own, and that, while the latter may pre-
dominate in the result, they possess no
magic enabling them to transmute the
baser elements into their own gold

Salvador's Reputation,

The issue which has arisen between this
country and Salvador involves more i'm
portant factor than the money award which
was granted to the American claimants by
the commission which sat in judgment on
the case. The vital principle of interna-
tional good faith is at stake, and 1t is to be
hoped that wiser counsels will prevail in
Salvador than those which led to the virtual
repudiat ton of the award by that govern
ment. The claims grew out of the alleged
failure of an American corporation which
contracted to construct docks and develop
the harbor at the port of Ell Triunfo, fol-
lowed by the conhscation of it's property
by the Salvador government The corpora
ton asserted that IL had executed its con-
tract In good faith. but that it was the vic
tim of the rapacity of the government.
The claims were referred to a commission
consisting OF citizen OF each interested
country and the chief justice of Canada
The sittings were held in this city, and the
verdict was an award of $500 900 in favor
of the claimants. Immediately the Saliva
dorian member of the commission repudi-
ated the award and charged that the Cana
dian member had not attended to the work,
but had been Ill In his room practically

Commissioner Macfarland to Remain.

Commissioner Macfarlands decision to
remain in the service of the District is
cause for qualification throughout the COM
munity. During the three years of his term
he has labored steadfastly for the advance
ment of the local welfare. He has famil-
iarzed himself with his duties applied him
self to them assiduously and faithfully and
executed the trust imposed upon him with
conspicuous ability and to the general salts
faction The President recognized these
services and marked his Endorsement of Mr..
Macfarland's administration in a most en-
phatic manner by rendering him a reap
pointment some time before his first term
had expired. The expressions of the Dis
tricts opinion OF this exceptional compli-
ment attested to the wisdom of the choice,
and when it was announced that business
considerations might cause the Commits
sioner to retire from Office at the end of his
first term the community with practical
unanimity voiced its request that he re-
main. The people of the District are not
unappreciative of the sacrifices which Mr.
mcfarland Is making now to fulfill his
duty to the community. The Commissioner
should feel that he IS himself rewarded by
the knowledge that he is meeting the public
wishes and conserving the Districts in
terests by remaining in office.

Finance at Hot Springs.

The four republican members Of the Sem
ate finance committee who are in session at
Hot Springs, Virginia, considering the terms
of a financial bill to be presented to the
next Congress are well qualified to dis
charge that work satisfactorily. Mr. AL
drich is business man and a capitalist
and has made close study Of the question
of finance and taxation. Mr.. Plat of Con-
necticut Is at once a thorough lawyer and
man Of wide practical reading who is
always heard with great respect in the SEN
ate when matters of Importance are under
discussion. Mr.. Allison has three times
during his senatorial service refused the
treasury portfolio. His judgment in treas
ury concerns Is much deferred to by both
sides in the Senate Mr.. Spooner's reputa-
ton rests principally upon his brilliant
powers as a debater. but he has other
equipment as WELL and he is very much at
home in his present company. We may
easily believe therefore that something
good will come out of the putting of these
four heads together at this time.
Mr.. Aldrichs bill, which was defeated in
the closing days Of the last Congress-
would probably have become a law if the
deadlock in the Senate over the statehood
bill had not made the way so difficult for
port on both sides of the chamber. 1t had
no partisan object in view. But while it
met with favor, the brief debate revealed
the fact that it called, in one or two fea-
lures. for recasting in the interests Of
clearneSS and conciSeness. Senators who
warmly Endorsed the general purpose of the
measure wisely insisted that In matter
relating to the safeguarding of the public
funds not only should the securities offered
to the government be of the best, but the
terms Of their acceptance should be more
carefully expressed.
By taking up this question in good time
now. the republican leaders in the Senate
will be able to prepare a measure which
should stand the test of the most searching
debate. The country expects and will ap-
prove action calculated to prevent the
boarding of great sums of money in the
treasury and its branches collected as rev.
enue. The legitimate business requires a
large and constantly circulating medium.
But every law in regulation thereof should
be drawn with the most scrupulous care,
both in the interests of those who offer
and the officials who accept evidences of
value. and also of course in the interests
of the people in general. Mr. Aldrich and
his coadjutors are engaged upon very
important task
