The Exposition at Portland.

Although the Lewis and Clark CEN
tennial exposition at Portland, Ore, is
small in comparison with the worlds
fairs of 1893 and 1904, it Is a big show
in its way and celebrates big event.
The residents of the whole Pacific
slope have united to make the exposi-
ton success.
A century ago the Lewis and Clark
exploring party traversed an unknown
wilderness, and the story Of this ro-
maHtic achievement as well as that OF
the marvellous development of the re-
glon during the past 100 years will be
told graphically by the varied exhibits
at Portland. The history of the expe
dition and of the conquest of the will
derness which followed it Is unknown
to the mass of the American people.
As they excite curiosity and add
knowledge in different features Of our
national growth. fairs like that at
Portland are valuable and should at
tract a liberal attendance on the part
of those who wish to become acquaint-
ed with the most absorbing and thrill
ing incidents Of pioneer development
In America.

JOHN HAY, STATESMAN.

A great man has gone to rest. In all
that makes a man loved, honored and
respected by his fellowmen, John
Hay excelled. He was type of all
that ia best in American life, both
public and private. An author and
poet of merit, a historian, humorist,
journalist and orator, his many gifts
made him q marked man of the GEN.
try and his good deeds live after him.
His successful labors to preserve the
peace Of the world are perhaps his
greatest work.
His life is beacon to every man
who aspires to the heights of fame
and honor always accorded the mem
o-y of the truly good and great.
He lived his life; the world is bet
ter for his living; his memory is hon.
o-ed now and will be in the future.

ONE WAY OF BOOSTING.

Patronize home industries. If you
have a dollar to spend, spend it right
here in Wenatchee. Every doll
worth of goods bought in Chicago, Sc
attic or Spokane means loss to the
local merchant and indirectly loss
to the entire community.
Wenatchee's stores carry as complete
lines of merchandise of every kind as
an ordinary mortal is in need of, and
the prices are actually lower in many
instances than on the same goods in Sc
attic. If there ara any extraordinary
mortals in town we can spare them
and every body would be the gamer if
they would move to some place where
true worth would be appreciated and
they would have the satisfaction OF
knowing that their goods were pur-
chased at Somebody brothers store.
even if they did pay more. The man
who sends money out of town for some
article that he could have purchased
here is an enemy OF the town.
We don't need boosters club" to
keep Wenatchee bowling right along on
the high road to prosperity. IT every
man, woman and child would follow the
rule of buying of the home merchants,
the betterment OF the city would be
Immediately appreciable. There is no
other one thing which would do so
much to insure Wenatchee's prosperity.

The Torpedo Is King.

When the Japanese torpedo boat TO
tilla destroyed several of the large
Russian warships ut Port Arthur there
was a decided reversal of sentiment
among the naval experts of all nations
concerning the value of torpedo craft.
Experiments previously made with tor.
pedo boats indicated that they can be
terribly effective under certain condi-
tions. The mechanism of the subma-
rines is of course very complex, and
much depends upon luck whether they
can be used to advantage in actual
conflict. The results in the strait of
Korea are almost certain to give to ad-
vocates Of torpedoes in warfare new
proof of their superiority.
The torpedo is certain to play a part
in the defense of ports and channels.
1t was used in the civil war at Charles
ton and Mobile, but not to an extent
which could decide conflict. The
Confederate General Beauregard was
believer In torpedoes for harbor de-
Tense and used them with effect at
Charleston in 1863. Under his direc-
ton the famous cigar shaped subma-
rine boat which destroyed the United
States warship Housatonic In 1864 was
perfected. A greater use Of submarine
boats would have been made at
Charleston but for Beauregard's re-
luctance to permit sailors to take the
chances Of disaster in experimental
craft Several crews were lost In the
cigar boat before it scored success,
and even then the entire crew went
down alongside Of the enemy which
was destroyed.
In comparison with battleships tor
pedo boats are inexpensive, and
belligerent can well afford to lose half
a dozen with every man on board in
order to destroy one battleshlp. At the
last session of congress when the naval
appropriation bill was under discus
sion arguments were made in the COM
mittee rooms that money should not be
appropriated for battleships on ac
count of the showing made against
vessels of this class by the torpedo
boats at Port Arthur. More torpedo
boats were recommended. but the gen.
eral board Of the navy favored battle
ships With the torpedo growing in
Importance the big ships will soon be
obsolete in naval armament.

From distant farm and city,

To build a city grand;

SUPPLIES FOR PANAMA.
Railway Director Returning From
Europe With Lowest Bids.

Richard L. Farnham, director of the
Panama railway who has been in England
and on the continent for the past two
months looking into the prices of steamers
and rails, will be passenger on the steamer
Deutschland, which sails for New York to-
day, taking proposals from British and
German firms for rails and from British
shipowners and shipbuilders for steamers.
Mr. Farnham is reticent regarding his
mission beyond saying that the Panama
Railway Company is looking for three
steamers of about 5000 tons each, and fair
ly fast to carry freight and passengers.
He says he has succeeded in finding in Eng
land six vessels generally complying with
the requirements, on which he has taken
options and that the prices are somewhat
below what the same vessels can be pur-
chased for in the United States.
He also has proposals from seven of the
largest shipbuilding firms in Great Britain
to build the ships required at prices lower
than those for which they could be built
in the United States. The British firms, he
says, are prepared to deliver the steamers
in shorter time than American builders.
Regarding rails Mr.. Farnham found Eng
lish prices far below the American while
the German prices were even lower. He
says he has not purchased anything, but
has simply received proposals to submit to
the board in this city.

COMING TOWER CHANGES.
Navy Department Decision Due East
ern War Experience.

It was reported at the New York navy
yard yesterday that the coming tower as
Is at present in use on United States war
as to cease to be the central control station
of the ships movements. The towers were
designed as place of security for the Of
ficer directing the ship and contain means
of communicating with other parts of the
ship and is center of much sensitive ap-
paratus which might be easily disarranged
In the recent naval battles in the far east
the towers, the communication system was
dislocated, and some of the Russian ships
rendered unmanageable.
The whole question of the location of the
sensitive electrical, mechanical and other
apparatus concentrated in the coming
tower of the warships of the navy is under
consideration, it was pointed out at the
Navy Department last night.
1t is not desirable, official explained
to move the coming tower itself. as it is
bridge, where 1t affords excellent look
out for the captain and the helmsman But
1t is the extensive apparatus which il con-
tains, and which performs such an impor-
tant function in the management control
and efficiency of the ship that is being con-
sidered, and which it is suggested should
be given more complete protection than is
now afforded.
Some arrangement may be devised where
by this mechanism will be removed to some
other armor protected place on the ships.

and practically all danger of its destruc-
