WANT RETURN OF cAN1EEN
Portland Camp Spanish War Veterans
Ask Oregon Senators to Aid in
Repeal of law.

PORTLAND, Dec. Letters urgins
Senator Charles w. Fulton and John
NJ. Gearin to take active steps at the
next session of congress to secure the
repeal of the law. forbidding the sale of
beer n light wines in army canteens
will be sent to the senators by Camp
Scout Young No. 2, United Spanish
Wal Veterans. Similar letters will be
sent to the representatives of this state
in the lower house of congress.
At a meeting of the camp at Au-
ditorium hall, Third m Taylor streets
last night, it was decided by a unan-
imOus vote that the letters should be
sent.
Resolutions declaring that the or
ganization desires to go on record as
standing with the regular army in ia
vor of the restoration by congress ot
the sale of beer and light wines in
army canteens, was read The reso-
lutions declare that the military eX-
perience of the Spanish War Veter-
ans has clearly demonstrated tina
genuine temperance is effectively pro-
noted by the operation of a canteen
where light drinks are sold under
proper restrictions; hat the members
Of Tho OrUonizotiOn hoxo caon orI -
allied the evil effects of preventing
soldiers from purchasing mild bev-
erages within their own post and fore
ing them when they desire a slim
ulant, to procure it in surroundings
destructive of physical and moral
health.
1t is stated by the resolution that the
officers of the regular army, almost
without exception, favor the return of
h canteen, but are so situated hat
they cannot work to that end; and
that the U. S.. w. V. considers it
ward securing the desired legislation.
These resolutions were adopted by
unanimous vOte. The movement in the
U. S. w. V. is concerted. All the
camps in the country with a total
membership of over 100, 900, are acting
together in recommending to COZ
gress that the anti-canteen law be re-
! pealed.
The Legislative committee of he
national encampment has been ir-
structed to present to congress d me-
mortal indicating the opposition Of The
organization to the present restrictions
on the canteen. In addition to the
letters addressed to the senators and
representatives to congress from Owe
gon, Camp Scout Young communicated
to the national headquarters the hearty
sympathy with the movement of the
local camp. A petition to congress
is being circulated among the members
of the camp, asking that the anti
canteen law be repealed. :'h:s petit
ton will be signed by nearly every
member of the camp. Personal letters
to Oregon congressman urging them 10
give the matter their attention will
be written by a number of the inf1uen-
tial members Of the camp.

More Rebate Convlotlons.


The conviction Of four leading packing
house firms by jury ia the United
States District Court at Kansas City,
Kansas, on Tuesday last, is anoth.r evi-
dence Of the suldeiency OF existing laws
to punish such offendings. when tho cases
are properly prepared and vigorously
prosecuted.
These four firms, leaders in the business
and presumed to be powerful enough to
ride over the law, were brought to book
by the ordinary process Of indictment,
trial and conviction. The attendant
punishment will be only fine, but the
experience Of the prosecutions proves
that only an amendment providing for
the additional punishment Of impnson-
ment is necessary to make the law as
effective as any new law passed by Con-
gress possibly could be
Those prosecutions also make clear
that the enactment Of new laws by Con-
gress and continued ignoring Of existing
laws would only make matters worse,
Having successfully dehed the old laws,
the offenders would disregard new ones
with equal effrontery. And then the
evil policy of rushing to Congress for adj
dtional legislation would Be continued
indefinitely.
Had President Roosevelt expended
but portion Of the energy he has ex-
pended in belabonng Congress for new
legislation in squirting his subordinates
70 resoluto action in enforcing existing
laws, there would have been no clamor
throughout the country for the enactment
Of railroad rates legislation. Under the
laws, the leaders Of the paclinghouse
business have been convicted Of accept-
ing unlawful rates from the railroads and
the chief offender Of the railroads is also
being prosecuted for granting them.
The convicted culprits will have to pay
heavy fines, which is the only punish
ment provided by the law.
With the present laws amended so as
to provide for the additional punishment
Of imprisonment, the necessity Of fur
ther legislation would disappear. Ger
tainly this plan would be much better
than that Of enacting more laws to be
ignored.

Why the Joint eallot2

In view Of the fact that Col Henry A.
du Pont was elected United States Senator
by the Legislature on Tuesday last, when
the two houses balloted separately, much
curiosity prevails as to why there should
have been a formal ballot at the joint
session held at noon on Wednesday.
The process Of eleeting United States
Senator is this: On the second Tuesday
after organization the two houses ballot
separately. The next day at noon they
meet in joint session and compare the
journals Of the previous days session, so
far as they relate to the ballots for Senator.
II this comparison shows that any one
man received a majority Of the votes in
each house the election thus clearly estab-
lished is formally declared II it shows
that no one received a majority Of the
votes cast in leach house, then a joint bal
lot follows, and az least one joint ballot
must be taken daily at noon so long as
the Legislature may remain in session, or
until Senator is elected
But the Delaware Legislature, on We'd
nesday took a ballot in joint session after
il was shown that Col. du Pont had re-
eeived a majority Of the votes cast in each
house at Tuesdays ballot, and, therefore,
had been duly elected. Why
Now, had there been anything to
vitiate the separate ballots OF Tuesday,
say, for example, that some Addicks men
had been bought to vote for Col. du Pont
this serious act Of invalidation might
have been technically obyiated by a
Joint ballot, at which, il might be urged
there was no corruption, the purchase Of
the Addicks members having been only
for their votes at the separate balloting,
and their vote in joint session being an
act Of their own free will
This may not have been the reason for
the apparent absurdity of the Legislature
taking a joint ballot for United States
Senator after o Senator had been duly
elected, but in these days Of devious
politics in Delaware there is no telling
what was the end sought to be obtained.

our Foreign commeroe.


The foreign commerce Of the United
States during the fiscal year which ends
with this month promises to exceed, in
both imports and exports, that Of any
earlier year. The details Of ten months
Of the years commerce have been an-
nounoed by the Department Of Commerce
and Labor through its Bureau Of statis-
tics and should May and June show as
large a monthly average as that Of the ten
months for which the record has been
made, the imports viii be 81 ,225, 600 900,
and the exports 81 ,7s6, 100000, or total
Of a little more than s3,000,0 100000
The figures Of the fiscal year 1905 ex-
coed, both as to imports and exports,
those Of any prior year and the recorded
imports Of ten months Of 1905 exceed,
by nearly slO0O00.000, and exports
exceed BY over s2o0,00o000, those Of the
corresponding months Of last year.
In imports the increase occurs IN all
classes except food stufis, and in exports
the increase occurs in every class, but
especially in good stufs and manufac-
tuIes.
The decrease in the importation Of
articles Of food occurs chiefly in sugar
and coffee.
Trade with the non-contiguous terri
tories Of the United States also shows
an increase in the grand total but not
in merchandise received from the sections
thus designated The aggregate Of trade
with the non-contiguous territories viii
probably also exceed that Of any pre-
yious wear.
