after spending a very pleasant Sunday
at the bay. They brought with them
the largest bamboo pole ever seen

floating in on the crest of a wave, and
riding 1t to shore. Mr.. G. G. Davis,
who had gone into the surf, had been
carried out to sea, and was brought
back by pole, or tree. The bamboo
pole when measured was found to be
SO feet long and measured four and a
half inches in diameter at the largest
end. It was covered with barnacles
inside the butt end and the finders
explained that it had come from the
shores of faraway Cathay A report

Hines, secretary of the Oregon His.
torical society, is accused of taking
from Astoria the monument which
marked the resting place of McTavish
English representative, who was
drowned off Fort Astoria in 1918. At
the last meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce it was decided to mark all
historic spots in this vicinity apropos
of the Lewis and Clark fair, and also
to collect relics of early days. Discus
cussion brought out the charge that
Mr.. Hines had carried off the monu.

when Fort Astoria was taken. over
by English and renamed Fort George.
He was drowned by the capsizing of
a boat.

PATENT RIGHT TRANSFERRED.
Medal of Honor Legion Will Guard the
New Design.

Major General George L. Gillespie, gen.
ent on the design for the new medal Of
honor given for valor on the field of battle
by the United States government, has pre-
scented the patent to the Medal of Honor
Legion of the United States. General Gill
lespie obtained the patent on the design in
order to protect it from copy and to make
1t distinctive. The reasons advanced for a
change from the old design were that the
old medal is too much like that Of the in
The veterans who hold medals of honor,
whether they were won in the civil war,
Indian campaigns, the war with Spain, or
during the Filipino inSurrection, all de-
sired that their decoration be distinctive,
as 1t is the only decoration conferred by
the government of the United States.
The action of General Gillespie in secur-
ing the patent was, therefore, to protect
the wearers of the medal, and as soon as
he received the letters patent from the
patent office he Immediately placed him
self in communication with Brigadier Gen.
eral L. G. Estes, commander OF the Medal
of Honor Legion, for the purpose of pre-
senting to that organization the patent
papers. In his letter to General Estes
General Gillespie said:
1T have received from the commissioner
of patents the paper securing to me patent
rights for the new medal of honor. l think
it best to turn this paper over to the legion
in order that they may be watchful body
to protect the medal against copyists. This
course seems preferable to turning the
patent over to the government for protec-
ton.

OUR TRADE WITH CANADA.
Exports of Manufactures Increase De-
spite Discriminating Tariff.

Exports from the United States to Cam
ada during the year about to terminate
seem likely to exceed in total value those
OF any earlier year. The Department of
Commerce and Labor, through its bureau of
statistics has just prepared table show
ing the total commerce OF the United States
with Canada during the ten months ending
with October, also the total imports into
the United States from, and exports from
the United States to, Canada in each fiscal
year from 1850 to and including 1904. The
former statement shows that the total ex-
ports from the United States to Canada in
the ten months ending with Ocober, 1904,
were SIG TT5.6J6. against s111, 1884, 7e3 in the
corresponding months of 1908, and $685. 1872
394 in the corresponding months Of 1902.
The fiscal year statement shows that our
imports from Canada grew from $50, 264, 4O3
in 1855 to $51, 400, 2G0 IN 1904, and that our
exports to Canada grew from SOS. s29. 402 in
1865 to $131, pa, 346 in 1904 The more rapid

This letter was received by General Estes
early this week and after consultation with
members of the Legion in this city he ac-
cepted the gift and notified General Gill
lespie of his acceptance in the following let
ter, dated December l:
Il am in receipt of your esteemed favor

THE PUBLIC DEBT.
Increase Indicated for November of
S2,453.2

The monthly statement of the public debt
just issued shows that at the close of bust
ness November 80, 1904, the debt, less cash
in the treasury, amounted TO $685., 240 917,
an increase for the month OF s., 453, 265. The
debt is recapitulated as follows: Interest
bearing debt, 1896, 157, 40; debt on which in
terest has ceased since maturity, 81, 495, 400;
debt bearing no interest, $685., 1852, 705; to-
tai, 81 ,2s2 $50, 5I5.
This amount, however, does not include
$1,019. 49,, 969 in certificates and treasury
notes outstanding, which are offset by an
equal amount of cash on hand held for
their redemption.
The cash in the treasury is classified as
follows: Gold reserve, $50, 600 600; trust
funds, S1019, 431 ,969; general fund, S119-
S34, SOB; in national bank depositaries,

there are demand liabilities outstanding

which they form of our total exports to
that country is the more remarkable in
view OF the fact that the Canadian tariff

they added p, 600 bushels to the worlds

that shows a decline, and that, as I told

and gardens, because there Is more money

The Wheat Tariff.

On the other hand, the millers and others
who prophesy wheat shortage in the early
future say that. eliminating his forecast
for macaroni wheat and the possible devel-
opments in the arid districts, upon which
they are not prepared to express an opin-
ion, Secretary Wilson's views confirm the
probability that the wheat tariff is about
70 become a permanent factor in the price
of flour and bread in this country. They
say that undoubtedly the United States
can grow Its own wheat by withdrawing
land from corn and other crops. but that
will only establish a higher level of prices
for meats and all agricultural products.
They recognize that the volume of all agri-
cultural products will be increased by irri-
cation. but that will come gradually. 1t is
equally true that the yield can be largely
increased by drainage and more careful
culture, but that will require higher prices.
So at last, they argue, we face the situa-
ton which we would escape, to wit: Bearer
food in the United States. They say that,
however much a high price for wheat may
have contributed to our national prosper
ity when we were selling hundreds of mill
lions of bushels abroad, dear food cannot
possibly be the basis Of prosperity when it
is all required at home
