STANDS TO LOSE.

Fear has been entertained in
certain circles that in a. tariff
war between Germany and the
United States the latter might
come off second best. What we
purchase of Germany can be
more readily secured elsewhere
by US than one would suppose.
In this respect Germany would
not fare so w Il as us, as is set
forth in the St. Louis Glo5e-Dem-
ocrat. one of the best edited pa
pers in the country, as follows:
Of our exports to Germany in
1904 S35, 600, 900 was raw cotton,
which must be had in this coun-
try if it is had at all, for the out
side supplyis small. The United
States furnishes three-quarters
of the worlds cotton crop. Lard
copper, mineral oils, corn and
wheat are among the other i'm
portant articles that we sell to
Germany. In all of these we are
the worlds largest producers.
ANY tariff restrictions by Ger
many that would shut any con-
siderable proportion of those
things out would be a serious in
jury to the German people.
When the matter is presented
squarely to Germany, as it will be
by those announcements of the
Secretary of the Treasury, she
will see that a tariff war woulo
hit her far harder than it woulo
us. This is an issue which the
country will be ready to face. Il
those menaces against us on the
other side of the Atlantic SHOULD
materialize Congress in the ex
ira session in October would have
work on it's hands of more press
ing Importance than railway rat'
regulation or any other question
which has recently been discuss
by the people.

The Oregon Mutual.

The latest publication to seek
public favor is the Oregon Mutu-
al. 1t is published at McMinn-
vile, Or, in the interest of the
Oregon Fire Relief Association.
In the course Of the salutatorv
the following occurs:
The object of this publication
is to encourage cooperative effort
in all lines Of work. The fnan-
cial world realizes the importance
of com bination and concentration
of forces, and it is through the
application Of this principle that
capital has succeeded in making
itself more than a match for
what should be its supetior-'a-
Dor.
1t is only by cooperative work
that the laborer, tieproducer, the
man Of small means, can hope t.
hold his own against the en-
croachments of organized capt. l.
This does not imply a fight
againt capital. a strong nation
may impose on a weak one, but
let two nations be equally strong,
ndthey will be mutuallv helpful.
It is so with the two forces-la-
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1905-08-04

Dor and capital. So long as cap
ital has an undue advantage, it
will impose on labor. Let labor
stand On an equal footing with
capital, and the two will be mutu-
ally helpful.
Believing, that an extension OF
the principle and practice of &C.
operation will do more to place
our producers OH an equality with
capitalists, the Mutual will use
all proper means to encourage co.
operative enterprises.

THE INVESTIGATION.

The Bennington disaster shock
ing as it was and fraught with
horrible and wholesale loss of
life, may in the end result in a
measure Of good-not that any,
thing can compensate for the
lives lost, however. It is report
ed that only one officer was do
ing engineering duty at the time
of the disaster, and he was an
ensign of little experience. He
had been assigned to the work
less than six months previous.
This reveals a bad condition in
naval circles. The Bennington
so far as machinists and engin-
eers went was undermined. Nor
isthis all, she was oficered by in
competent men, even to the point
of criminality. There should
have been two or three warrant
machinists on the Bennington;
that there was not is proof Of the
above statement.
There is some party to blame
for this awful disaster, but
whether the congress that
changed the law regulating ma.
val matters or the naval de.
partment are matters yet to he
made clear.

LoNeFELLow's BIRTHPLACE.
Reproduction of House of Poe rs
Birth.

For perhaps the hrst time Ii |
American history, state has
honored a native poet by buileing
a replica of his birthplace several
thousand miles from the original.
This has been accomplished at
the Lewis and Clark Exposition
by the state of Maine winch has
for its building a structure that
is all. exact reproduction of the
place where Henry Walsworth
Longfel .ow was born. 'The build
ing has attracted a great deal of
attention, especially from Wes,-

THE finest IN Portland, Maine. 1t
was the honle OF Samuel Stephen
son, a .brothzr-in law of Hon.
Stephen LongfeH*w, the poets
father.
Longfellow's birthplace is
Ithree-story frame building, con-
structed after the peculiar style of
architecture characteristic of the
period. 1t is severely rectangu-
lar in shape, with hip roof, and
the only decoration is a small
cornice over the doorway which
is in the center of the front wall.
The house is painted white, and
a white picket fence encloses a
small grass plot at the left of the
entrance, The room in which the
poet was born IS the front cham
Der, il the second story to the
right. On entering the building,
one climbs several steps and is
| admitted to a hall, from which
stairs lead to the floor above.
} The living rooms are large and
comfortable, and open off to the
right and left of the central hall.
The birth room has been fitted
, up in colonial style, with some
F rare old furniture, notable among
