RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.

Last week the republican members
of the Boston chamber of commerce
committee of one hundred drafted and
signed an appeal to the republican
state convention and the people asking
that the full weight of Massachusetts
republican influence be used in press
ton the Importance of more liberal
trade relations with Canada. Similar
appeals are expected from other Mass
achusetts cities.
But why appeal TO the republican
party? For eight years it has been tenn
porizing with Canada and making
promises to the people of New England
and the northern states who would be
benefited by reciprocity: but it has
hearkened to the protected trusts which
would lose their overplus of profits in
the event of a reduction of duties, with
the result that this country and Can
ada are no nearer reciprocal trade re-
lations than they were a decade ago.
In support of the Massachusetts eff
fort President Roosevelt is quoted as
favorable to reciprocity But if re-
| ciprocity involves revision of the
Dingley schedules. Mr.. Roosevelt will
j not be for it. Senator Fairbanks is not
much of revisonst either. He was

and in five years he has done nothing
towards reciprocity, although his iu-
ties involved dealing with this matter

most unanimously desire reciprocity

sentiment in Canada therefor The Ca

TURNER CORNERS OREGONIAN.

In "a speech at Vancouver Monday
night Judge Turner denounced as ma
liciOusly false the statement in the
! Portland Oregonian that he worked
for the railroads in the constitutional
convention of 1889 He proved the fall
sity of the Oregonian's assertion by
reading from that papers own report
of that convention.
The Oregonian Of August 4. 1889,
quoted at considerable length speech
made by Judge Turner in support of
the proposition to create a railroad
commission by the constitution just the
same as the office of governor, or any
sition was the first move made by the
friends of a commission in the conven-
ton.
Several days later the Oregonian
files show that Judge Turner offered
three amendments for the creation of
a railroad commission, all of which
were defeated.
ON August I, 1889 the Oregonian
quotes Judge Turner as making a Wig
orous speech denouncing the railroad
lobby and accusing the members of the
convention of changing their minds on
the commission question as a result
of lobby influence. This speech created
great Indignation and wrath on the
part of the members. who changed
their minds, but ultimately a provis-
ion, providing that the legislature
might in its pleasure create a railroad
commission, was adopted. Judge Tur-
ner took these extracts from the Ore
Sonlan giving the lie to that papers
charges recently made against him.
amid great applause. He denounced
the Oregonian and the Seattle Post
as printing maliciously
false statements, which they we'll knew
to be false.

ers of railway commission are elect
ed to the legislature.
To make sure of the creation of an
appointive regulative railway and tax
commission the only safe plan Is to
vote for George Turner for governor
and for the democratic nominees for
he Legislature. In Walla Walla county
vote for William p. Reser or J. G..
Adams for the state senate and for
William Ritz, Charles NJ. Taylor or H.
II. Hungate for representatives, ac
cording to the district in which you
veside. All of these men are uncompro-
missing supporters of Il railway COM
mission and they are not so narrow as
to vote against it if the next governor
should chance to be "a republican.

PARTY ABOVE STATES WELFARE

The morning paper insinuates that
Judge Turner lied when he quoted from
a published speech of Congressman
Jones in which the latter was repre-
scented as saying that if a republican
legislature were elected along WITH
Turner as governor no commission bill
would be passed for the governor to
sign. and that if Jones were member
of the legislature he would act with
the majority in opposing a commission
bill. Judge Turner accepted as true
what appeared to be an authentic re-
port of Jones speech and it is very
likely that Jones did say something of
the kind, although he denies that he
used the words attributed to nim
Whatever Jones may have said the
Union declares that no republican leg
islature would pass a railway commits
sion bill if Turner We're governor. 1t
says in this mornings issue:

What would have been thought of
the democratic members of congress in
1898 if they had refused to vote appro-
priations for carrying on the war with
Spain because Mckinley instead of
Bryan was at the head of the govern
ment? All patriotic citizens regardless

democratic minority in congress as
traitors TO their country. But such

JAPAN'S SPIRITUAL DEBT.

OF the admission that Christian doc
trine never has bloOmed in the Japa-
nese garden, that the flower which is
regarded as the emblem of real civili-
/ zation has not become practical ideal
to Nippon, it is possible to construe
many subtle doubts as to the benefi-
cence of religion. There are dubious
beneficiares of modern advantages
who probably consider Japan to be a
fashiOner of progress which has no
foundation in belief. And there are

not now among the risen nations one
which flourishes under a different light.
Concerning Japan it is said that re-
ligiOn as a faith fascinates the people,
much as fairy tales do, but does not

ennObling, affecting the soul or the
mind through the imagination, but that
it is possible to have an upright nation
and yet make distinctions between be-
lief and practice. If the observations
of travellers are correct. Japan takes
an aliens view of Christianity. Japan
would acquire the blessings of Christ
ianity, but without faith in Christian
teachings.
Explanations which are given of the
nations and particularly of the nobii-
tvs attitude toward Christianity might
seem to exempt Japan from any obi
cations to modern civilization. They
might disturb the conviction of honest
believers and confirm the doubts of
honest, as well as dishonest, disbeliev-
ers. Were Japans progress of I'M
christian origin or causation. there
would be an exception to the generally
recognized law that religion is an es
sential of civilization.
But Japan's progress is due almost
entirely to the influence of Christianity.
The inspirations which have elevated
the nation have been derived from
without. Japan'S renaScence is a direct
result of American and European
civilization. Japan has emulated the
United States, Germany and Great
Britain. 1t has accepted and it abides
by American and European standards
and customs. 1t has taken the best pro-
ducts of Christian civilization. There
is no ground, therefore, for SUPPOSE
ton that Japan has come to the mod
ern state of advancement without the
help of Christianity. Although Japan is
not yet a Christian nation. its debt to
Christianity is as great is that of
any of the most Christian nations. And
Japan hardly can fail to adopt the en-
blem of real civilization.
