WILL NOW
 COMPLETE CANAL

Although the injunction of secrecy has not been removed from the treaty between the United States and the government of Colombia, which has been signed by Secretary Hay and the representative of the latter govern ment, enough is known of its details to warrant the belief that the United States will dig the great interoceanic canal by way of the Panama route in- stead of the Nicaragua route.
 Having been read in the senate in executive session and referred to the, committee on foreign relations. the to ratification by the United States senate and the Colombian congress. Later dispatches regarding the princi- pal provisions of the treaty appear to confirm the information given out on Thursday after the treaty was signed. IL appears that the treaty is identical with that drawn by this government several months ago and at that time submitted to the Colombian govern ment with the exception of the amount of the annuity to be paid CO lombia for the right of way for the canal. The United States proposed an annuity of s1OO,O0O, while Colon bia demanded $650000
 Under the treaty as it now stands the United States agrees to make a cash payment of s1O,O0O,00O gold to Colombia, and after the expiration of nine years to pay rental of $25O, GOO per year. A strip of land six miles wide is to be leased for canal pur- poses for 100 years, the lease to be re- movable thereafter in periods of 100 years at the option of the United States. Although Colombia does not surrender sovereignty over this strip, the United States is given full police and sanitary jurisdiction oyer it.
 As there is little probability of seri- ous opposition to the treaty in the CO lombian congress, the members of. which are now being elected, particu- larly if the United States senate ratf- fies it, there is ground for the expec- tation that this government will soon take up the unfinished work of the Panama Canal company under the act of congress passed last year and ap- proved June 2S, 1902. Under the pro visions of this act the United States will pay to the Panama Canal com pany the sum of $40,O0O, ,00O for all the rights, franchises, concessions, plants and other property, real and personal: owned by that company, also the 6s- s63 shares of the Panama railroad company owned by or held for the use or said canal company.
 With the ratification of this treaty and the payment Of $40, O,OOO, ,v00 to the Panama company the United States comes into possession of a canal route 463z miles in length, If miles of which are already excavated, and will be ready to complete the greatest engin- eering enterprise in the worlds his tory.

GREAT TRIUMPH FOR AMERICA.
Wilson Tells of the Stamping Out OF
Foot and rlouth Disease.

Washington, Oct. 1.--Secretary VIII
son said today that the receipt through
the state department, of an official mo-
tice that Great Britain had removed Its
embargo on cattle and sheep from the
New England ports was the conclusion
of the great work in which the depart
ment had been engaged since September
l for the eradication OF foot and mouth
disease from the New England states.
The secretary regards this as the most
important and valuable piece OF work
the department has done for American
agriculture.
"No country" he said, "beiore has
succeeded in stamping out such an ex-
tensive outbreak Of this disease. The
inspectors and their assistants were
obliged to work in the open country
with the thermometer far below zero.
Some OF the men had their extremities
frozen and we're disabled. 1t is diff
cult, even at this time, to understand
how the pits were dug in the frozen
ground for burying the carcasses, and
how the disinfectants we're applied with
everything Of liquid nature froze in
a short time after it was exposed to
the atmosphere. But the work was 30
thorough that not in a single case
where the disinfection was conducted
by the departments representatives
did the disease reoc. ur when fresh cat
tie we're introduced"

MOB HOLDS CITY
DISCHARGED 500 WORKMEN RESORT
TO SERIOUS RIOTING.
Men Were Promised Wages But We're
Not Paid-Everything MOveabls In
Office OF Mining Company Is Des-
troyed and the Street Cars are
Charged Upon and Tiea Up.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Sept. 3d.
The Canadian 500 has been the scene
Of serious rioting by the discharged en-
ployes OF the Consolidated Lake Super
ior Company all day and tonight the
situation is very grave.
Trouble came when the company put
the men off the premises when they de-
manded their promised pay. The labor
ers broke away from all restraint the
large force Of special police could exert,
and smashed every window In the mag
nifcent building of the company in the
Canadian 500, charged puon the street
cars and demanded that the conductors
and motormen join them, and were
only prevented from doing further dam
age by cIever ruse Of one of the COM
pany's officials, who turned in a fire
alarm to divert attention. g
In the assault upon the Office build
ing by the mob early this afternoon.
before the arrival on the ground OF
troops, the frenzied rioters secured pos
session OF the ground floor Of the build
ing, destroying everything movable
that came in their path. A crowd OF
the Office staff, with drawn revolvers,
prevented their gaining access to the
upper floors CT the building.
The arrival OF troops on the ground
armed with ball cartrides about 2
o'clock this afternoon served to restore
some semblance Of order. The rioters
then contented themselves with throw"
ing stones at the building and hurling
invectives at the soldiers, who estab-
lishedKa "dead line" and prevented
any approach toward the building by
any of the rioters.
The greatest number Of the men are
ignorant Italians, Firms, Norw0gians
and Frenchmen, the latter perhaps the
hardest of all to handle. All have
been drinking heavily.

VALUES ARE HIGHER.
Taxable Property Of State Is Worth
About SI7S, 100000.

From what can be learned in unofi-
Cial advices from different counties OF
the state, it seems probable that the
total value Of the taxable property of
the state as shown by the assessment
recently completed will be in the
neighborhood of $l75, 1000, 900. This
will be in round numbers $26, 900, 900
greater than last year.
From almost every county comes the
report that valuations are being Rd.
vanced and that new property is being
added to the assessment rolls, so that
the total increase for the entire state
will be large.
The highest assessment ever made in
Oregon was that Of 1898, when the total
valuation was over $l6S, 10000 The
valuation had grown to that sum by
steady advances from $S4, 900, 900 in
1887. From 1898 onward the counties
began to vie with each other in reduc-
ing assessments in order to escape a
portion Of the burden OF state taxes.
The state taxes we've apportioned among
the counties in proportion to the as
sessed valuation and as each county
controlled it's own assessment it could
gain something by reduction. In 1900
this process Of reduction had brought
the total assessed valuation down TO
$117, 900, 900.
In order to put stop to this rivalry
in reducing assessments the legislature
Of 1901 passed an act providing that
state take shall be apportioned among
the counties at fixed ratio. The BEN
efieial results of this change we're seen
the first year, for the total assessment
that year was $l41, 100000, and in
1902 it had grown to over $l4S, 900, 900.
If it shall reach $l75, 900, 900 this year,
as now seems probable, the valuation
will then be the highest in the history
of the state.
Nearly all OF the advance indicated
this year could have been made upon
timber lands without placing an unjust
valuation upon that class of property.
In nearly all the counties where there
is considerable area of timber land
subject to assessment, increased yalua-
tions have been made this year. In
cities, where both business and resi-
dence property has found ready rental
at satisfactory rates, the valuations
have been put up.
Reports received from various sources
indicate that the valuation of farm
property has not been radically in
creased, but only in accordance with
improvements made.

DYNAMITRRS WANT MONEY.
Demand $4,000 From Northern Pacific

Demand $4,000 From Northern Pacific
for immunity From 0utrages.
Helena, Mont. Sept. S0.-It has de.
veloped that the recent attempts to dy-
Mantle bridges and track on the line CT
the Northern Pacific between Livings-
ton and Missoula are in furtheranCe of
plot to force the railway company to
pay $4,000 for immunity from the
outrages.
In August the company received
letter demanding t26, 900 and it was
threatened If the terms proposed were
not agreed to. dynamite would be used
on the line. No attention was paid to
the demand, and shortly after, the rail-
road bridge at Livingston was partially
wrecked by dynamite, and few nights
later another stick of dynamite was ex-
pIoded near Bozeman under passing
train.
Other letters followed, and the dyna'
miters proposed that the company pay
$50, 900 and If it acceeded to the de-
mand it was to carry white flag on
engines hauling trains and September
22 was to run light engine from Butte
to Missoula, and at point on the road
was to stop on signal, and an agent OF
the company was to pay over the
money.
The company, hoping to catch the
men, put out the white flags and on the
night agreed upon ran the light engine.
Behind it followed another engine pull
ing two cars. One was filled with
armed .sheriffs and deputies and the
other contained horses and blood.
hounds. The run was made from Butte
to Missoula, but there was no signal
and it was thought the men had been
scared off.
Soon after, the letters began to ar
rive again, the dynamiters making the
same demand and telling the railroad
il it agreed TO the terms to put the hse
on the engines. This the railroad
company has not done and in the pas
two weeks there have Deen four at

WAR CLOUDS LIFT.
Bulgaria Takes New Hope In Macedonia
Porte Lessons ApprehensiOns.


Sofia, Bulgaria, Sept. S0.--The stu.
alton here is much brighter today, and
the war clouds appear to have lifted.
The porte's assurance that the 32 pat
talions recently ordered to proceed from
Monastir to Adrianople will not be
moved has lessened the apprehensions
OF the Bulgarian government. Further
satisfaction is derived from the fact
that M. Natohovitch is going 60 Con-
stantinopie in the capacity OF Bulgarian
diplomatic agent. He conducted the
negotians with the porte last June, and
after their failure returned to Sofia.
The committee appointed for the pur
pose at the lime Of yeaterday's demon.
stration of Is, 900 Macedonians in this
city waited on Premier Petroff today
and asked him il the government in
tended to do anything to help the Mac
edonians. M. Petroff replied the min.
istry was acting in what it conceived to
be the best interests OF Bulgaria, and
would continue the same POLICY. The
spokesman oil the committee told the
premier his reply would not be satisfcat'
ory to the people, and the committee
thereupon withdrew.
The Dnevnik, commenting on the
situation, says:
Although the Bulgarians remain
quiet, it is not true indication Of the
national feelings, but 1t is owing to the
approaching elections.
The paper adds it will mot be lonl
before everybody will try to force II

OREGON is CHANGING.
Forestry Officials Find Reserves Are
Now Wanted.

NOW wanted.
Washington, Sept. 30.-"Contrary
to what appears to be popular belief,
there is steadily growing sentiment
among the people Of Oregon in favor Of
forest reserves" said H. D. Langille,
the Oregon man who is now forest in
spector in the bureau Of forestry, and
who has just returned from summer
spent in examining lands that have
been withdrawn in that state.
~ spent large part Of the summer

cinity Of various Withdrawals" he
continued, "and I find they generally
indorse the reserve policy, and want
more reserves established in Oregon. ]
talked TO farmers. TO Iumbormen, tC
stockmen, and, in fact, to all classes,
and the Overwhelming sentiment fav.
orable to the reserve policy was very
gratifying"
Mr.. Langille spent several weeks in
the Rogue river country and the re-
mainder of the season in the vicinity oi
the other Withdrawals in Oregon, save
that in the Blue mountains, which he
visited year ago. In Southwestern
Oregon he found the people divided,
half favoring a reserve, halt opposing.
In Eastern Oregon, the sentiment was
strongly in favor OF new reserves at all
localities where Withdrawals have
been made.
He believes the examinations made
this year by the various representatives
Of the bureau of forestry who have been
in Oregon, will furnish sufficient data
to guide the secretary Of the interior in
marking the boundaries of the propc sed
new reserves.
