Giving us Tit for Tat.

New Zealand takes leaf out OF our
book by restricting participation in
her coastirg trade. with the result that
ships Of the United States will not
hereafter be permitted to carry freight
from one New Zealand port to another
unless congress opens our coastine
trade 10 British ships. New Zealands
new act is a step toward imperial leu-
Grafton. II IS taken in connection with
the movement which gives a tariff
preference to the products Of countries
within the British empire. Nations
which open their coasting trade to
British ships are not excluded. but
all that observe a policy of exclusion
are given tit for tat. II Is even pro-
vided that ships OF nations that pursue
an exclusive policy may not carry
goods between New Zealand and any
other part OF the British empire

THOUGHTS ON THE CAMPAIGN.

With Cleveland and Bryan vot-
ing the ticket. the democracy is re-
united
When Parker luck meets Roose-
welt luck. then comes the tug Of horse
shoes ard rabbits feet-Anaconda
Standard
The pleasing announcement from
Delaware is that for Roosevelt cam
paign purposes Addicks gas will flow
without a meter.-Albany Argus.
-Lincoln's common people
whom the Lord must love because He
made so many OF them"-are for Parker
and Davis.-Los Angeles Herald.
The republican organs have much
10 say about Senator Henry G. Davis
dough" The West Virginian may he
wealthy. but he has public record to be
proud of.-Atlanta Constitution.
The silly attempts TO belittle
Judge Parker and to impugn the integ-
rity Of his motives 90 not confirm the
announcement that the republican cam
raign was to he conducted on high,
moral plane N. Y World.
Several republicans in Indiana
have announced themselves as candi-
dates for Mr. Fairbanks seat in the sen
ate The failure Of democrats to make
similar announcements may indicate a
belief that Mr. Fairbanks will serve out
his term N Y. World.
On the pension question the dem
ocratic party and the republican party
agree that the veterans who deserve
pensions should have them. They dis
agree. however in this wise-the demo-
Gratis would grant pensions from patri-
otto motives. while the republicans in
sist on granting them for political rea-
sons-The Commoner.
Mr. Roosevelt has the support OF
his intimate friends and his political
proteges. but conservative people eye
him with distrust They acknowledge
that he is irreproachable as an individ-
ual-that he is a stanch patriot, good
husband. a loyal friend. But they dis
trust his capacity for self-control and
distrust his judgment-N Y. Herald.

CELEBRATION AT CHAMPOEG
Seven Hundred People Assemble to
Observe the Day.

Monday was the sixty-frst ami
versary of the day upon which the
destiny of the state of Oregon, at that
time composed of the present states Of
Oregon, Washington and portion of
Idaho, when the subjects of Great
Britain and Uncle Sam lined up to the
ballot box and cast their ballots upon
the question Of whether Oregon should
be under the jurisdiction of the United
States or England, Uncle Sam s cham
pions winning out by only a margin
of two votes, and that event was cele-
brated upon the spot where the vote
was taken Monday afternoon-Cham-
poeg, twenty-four miles north of
Salem.
The commemoratlon meeting was
held upon the site which is now marked
with suitable monument, and was
presided over by Ex-Governor Geer,
who called the meeting to order with
few appropriate remarks upon the
history of the event On the platform
with Governor Geer were Hon f. X.
Matthew, the only survivor Of that
important event, Captain F. T.
Mountain, of Portland, and others.
Judge Galloway of McMinnville, was
the first speaker upon the occasion
and he was followed by George Fl.
Hines, secretary of the Oregon
Historical Society, who read a letter
which was written about the year 1888
by Hon. Ewing Young to the Spanish
Governor of Upper California, regard
ing the bringing of several hundred
head of cattle into this state from the
former state. The letter is regarded
as being very valuable as an historical
relic.

Mclaughlin and Old Oregon" and
"The Conquest" also made an adj
dress as did also Judge r. P. Boise,

and he was followed by addresses by

WATTERSON LIKES OREGON
Great Opportunities for the Rising
Generation.

''If I were 20, here is where should
come" said Henry Watterson, the
veteran editor of the Louisville
Courier-Journal, as he comfortably
chatted after his lecture in Portland.
I'm so years there will be a population
of 50,000000 in this section of the
country west of the crest of the Rocky
mountains. By that time the domi-
mating influence will be on the Pacific
and not on the Atlantic coast.
Westward is still the course of the
empire. By that time there will be
one and perhaps two isthmian canals
and Portland will not be over 36 hours
distant by rail from New York. The
Pacific ocean will then be the great
highway of commerce and this mag
nificent section so blessed by nature,
SO bland in its climate and so riot
ously prolific will logically come to the
very forefront.
Many cities will dot the whole
Pacific coast, achieving an Importance
now scarcely dreamed of, but there
will be three overshadowing centers of
and commercial conse-
quence which will be in constant busi-
ness touch with the whole round
earth-one north and the other south
of you.
"Here will be found the great op-
portunities for the rising generation
and these things will come to pass
during the lifetime of the boys who
are now attending the public schools.
Ii the boys who are here do not make
a success Of life with the opportunities
which are opening up before them
and with the advantages of their
environment, the fault
will be with them and not with the
in which they have been so
fortunately born or bred"

Good American Talk.

The Statesman would like to see
every voter in Oregon register, and,
having registered, vote. 1t would like
to have every voter go to the polls and
express his choice for or against every
candidate for every office. Let the
Democrats all register and vote, as
we'll as the Republicans. Good govern
ment comes from a general interest in
the selection Of public officers, and
much harm is done, often, by the
better class Of citizens declaring their
lack of interest in politics. Every
man should cultivate an interest in
such matters, especially, business
men, men who have property and pay
taxes. Let everybody register and
register now.-Salem Statesman.

home at 425 Chemeketa street, Salem,

after lingering illness dating back
over year. During these many
months Mr.. Palmer had been a
sufferer from liver complaint, and

his many friends, his condition grew
gradually worse until the hour named

ings he won the confidence and respect

garded as one of the foremost citizens
of Salem. BY his death Salem loses
an honored member Of both her busi-
ness and social circles and his demise
will be deeply mourned by the general
public.

yond about three years ago. The sur
viving children are: Mrs. Arch E.

Palmer, of Salem.-Salem Statesman.
Mr.. Palmer was for many years a !
resident Of Dallas, and was held in the

bors and associates. He was a good
man, and lived a long and useful life.
