The Portland Journal is mistaken in its statement
that The Astoran has attempted an apology for the
action OF the fish warden in permitting the fishing
laws to be violated this season. The Astorian has
no apology to make for the fish warden. the packers
or the fishermen. However it has no sympathy for
the local resident whO actuated by desire to get
even with some political enemy, seeks to arouse
sentiment that can but result in injury to the in
dustry The Astorian depores the violation Of the
law. 1t has repeatedly stated that it deplores this
violation not because Of any disastrous results that
may follow to artificial propagation or natural prop
agatlon, but because the precedent was dangerous
one to establish. If the law is violated at one time
without any effort to punish the violators, it may
again be violated with the same security. The law
should have been enforced-not because its terms
should naturally have been applied this year. but
merely because it was the law. The salmon should
have been caught and fishing operations should have
continued quite as long they were continued The
law should have provided for such contingency. It
made no such provision however, and therefore the
season should have ended August 15 The situation
was most deplorable one and The Astorian very
much regrets that it ever arose

AN OVERLOOKED POSSIBILITY.

One of the odd things about the discussion over III,
character of the future government of the Philip
pines is the general assumption that the mhabitant,
of that archipelago are certain in time to demand
absolute territorial independence. 1t does not seen
Ito be admitted for a moment-at least ON the part
of "anti-imperiaStS that the Filipinos might be-
come so satisfied with American domination or
rather American overlordship of their islands that
they would not care for an absolutely independent
government
Canada is not strictly free country. She en-
joys practically full measure of self-rule, so far
IA dependency of Great Britain. There is very little
camor in the dominion, however for national indie
pendence, and that, too although large part of
her population is of French extraction and speaks
the French language She is content with British
suzerainty, wisely realizing that thereby she gains
the protection of the entire British empire without
being under the necessity of maintaining large
standing army and navy of her own
Much the same is true of Australia New Zealand
Cape Colony and other British dependencies There
is no demand in these countries for national inde-
pendence The people of these dependencies under
stand that national independence carries with it
certain responsibilities and burdens from which, un-
der present conditions they are free. Even Ireland
Is no longer demanding absolute independence
John Redmond who has just arrived in the United
States for the purpose of promoting the Irish cause
declares that the aim of Ireland now is simply 'sef-
government, such as is enjoyed by the different
states Of the American union. How could Ireland
protect herself against foreign attack as an indie
pendent nation
Why may il not be that the Filipinos, after due
civic education and experience will reach frame
Df mind similar to that of the people of the British
dependencies in question! Why may it not be that
given an adequate measure of Selfrule in local af
FAIRS they would stoutly protest against any at
empt to sever completely the ties that now bind
heir archipelago to this republic! Why might they
lot insist continued annexation to the United
States, just as Hawaii sought the protecting folds
II the stars and stripes!
Promise Of ultimate national independence for
