CANADA AND THE MONROE DOC
TRINE.

A new application of the Monroe
doctrine was suggested by the Cana
dian minister of militia the other day
when he declared that behind the
Monroe doctrine are the guns and
warships of the United States and the
whole power of S0,O0O,0OO souls, and
if that doctrine means anything. it
means that Canada is safe from for
eign aggression" This was spoken in
connection with a declaration that
Canada should not continue to con-
tribute to the British navy without
representation of some kind in an i'm
perial council which would have pow
err to declare war and determine what
was to be done with the warships
constructed.
Canada asserting her national integ
rity even against the mother country
under the protection of the great re-
public. is an unexpected application CT
the Monroe doctrine. Whether it will
stand the test or not perhaps only a
trial could determine, for Canada is in
a different relation to the United
States from that occupied by other i'm
portant American nations. Canada is
a dependency of Great Britain Would
the United States regard coercion of
Canada by Great Britain as an in
fringement of the Monroe doctrine
Canada is already a possession of
Great Britain, and that government
would be acquiring no rights and
privileges on American soil that it
does not now possess. 1t would be
simply asserting and maintaining
those rights. And yet, in the case OF
Panama the United States saw fit -
protect the young republic from CO.
ercion from the mother country, and
an independent state by the United
States would have an important bear
ing upon the resort to coercive meas
ures by Great Britain.

THE ARMY MEDICAL CORPS.

The president and the secretary Of
war are trying to persuade congress to
pass a law to provide for a medical
reserve corps for the army. When the
army was reorganized in 1901. con-
gress. instead of charging the medical
corps. actually reduced it to the con-
dition of efficiency for $4,000 men.
whereas the maximum strength of the
army was fixed at 100000.
Congress does not seem to have
learned much from the experience of
the country in war. 1t has not learned
to preserve the lives of soldiers as far
as possible, though it has before it the
fact that in the rebellion more than
double the number of men died of dis
ease than died of wounds. that the
Spanish American war opened with a
scandal over the unsanitary camps,
and that the only serious mortality OF
the whole war was due to dirt, poor
to congress better economy to pay
pensions to forty or fifty thousand VOL
unteers than to employ an adequate
medical corps to take care of the men
while in the service. TheS lesson to
be learned by this nation from Japan
is that it pays to have good surgeons
and plenty of them and to give the
medical corps enlarged power over the
selection of camps, the guidance of
soldiers in the matter of food and
drink There is an impression that
the Japanese did something miraculous
during the war with Russia in the way
of medical care. They did. But the
miracles were merely those of forn
sight and intelligence. America has
lust as good surgeons. but apparently
she has not as good an oversight of the
army. 1t is not better surgeons the
American army needs, but more Of
them. trained for sanitary service.
The organization of reserve corps
to be called into service in time of
need seems a practicable and an eco
nomical way of covering the present
deficiencies. but congress is slow to
take the hint, probably figuring that
1t is waste of good democratic money

JUICE LINDSEY ON EQUAL
SUFFRAGE.

Judge Ben B. Lindsey, of the Denver
Juvenile Court has just published
statement in regard to the women's
vote in Colorado. He says in part:
woman suffrage in Colorado Tor
over ten years has more than demon
strated it's justice. No one would dare
to propose it's repeal; and, if left 10
the men of the state, any proposition
to revoke the right bestowed upon
women would be overwhelmingly de-
feated.
Many good laws have been OBJ
tanned in Colorado which would not
have been secured but for the power
and influence of women.
yer frauds have been committed. Nine
ty-nine per cent of these frauds were
committed by men, without any con-
nivance or assistance, direct or indi-
rect. from women; but because one
there are ignorant or careless minded
people in other states who actually
argue that this is reason for deny
ing women the right to vote. If IT
were a Just reason for denying suf-
frage to women, it would be ten times
greater reason for denying it to men.
with the exception of few down.
town precincts, where frauds were ar
ranged and carried out entirely by
men. with a very occasional and eX-
ceptional use of women, the elections
in Denver have been more decently
and honestly conducted than the!
were before women had the right tt
vote People have no right to judge
woman suffrage in Colorado by thu
election frauds in a few precincts, un
less it would be to show why suffrage
should be denied to men and restricted
to women. AS a matter of fact, thu
J only blow for decency that counted, II
the last of a series of bad elections il
Denver, was delivered by women vO
ters; and the very important goot
that came out of an otherwise ques
tionable election, was the result O.
woman suffrage. The evil results o
that election were in spite of woman
suffrage; not because of it, but be
cause of male suffrage; for had there

entirely to women, not a corruptionis

@uNIoNl A;ZzEAEED
OPPOSED TO PAVING MONOPOLY

Because the Barber Asphalt company
belongs to a trust is no good reason
for ignoring it's bids on pavement and
awarding all contracts to the Warren
Construction company. which boasts
that is has a monopoly because of Ger
tain copyrights and patents. The
choice between a trust and a monopoly
is to find a difference between tweedle-
dee and tweedledum, and the only safe
course for the city of Walla Walla to
follow is to insist upon free and open
competition in the awarding of all
paving contracts.
For the last year the Warren Con-
struction company has had a monopoly
of the paving business in Walla Walla
and it has been given it's price regard
less of the bids of competitors on the
ground that nobody else has any right
to lay bitulithic pavement and that II
the city prefers this pavement it must
pay whatever the warren company
may please to demand. Property
owners are fast reaching the con-
clusion that there are in fact other
kinds of pavement just as good as the
bitulithic and that a monopoly under
the name Warren is no sweeter than i!
would be under any other name. Fol-
that reason they hope the council viii
decide to allow free and fair competi-
ton among bidders on pavement con-
tracts hereafter and that the interests
of the taxpayers rather than the
greedy demands of the Warren COM
pany will be given first consideration
Pages of penny-a-line slush from
the agents of the Warren monopoly
will not change the sentiment of the
people of Walla Walla in favor of fail
play and square deal.

The people in mass meetings and the

mayor of Chicago, but it looks as if
the latter had been the more effective.
After failing to satisfy the grand jury
that his policy toward the tough dance
halls was right the mayor finally tum-
bled to the fact that he was on the
brink of an indictment for incom-
potency and m&feasance in office, and
next night the police were given an
order to clean the town of crooks and
toughs and thieves and Migrants. OF
course, the mayor and the police have
no more power today than they had

davits made by Mayor Hunt, several
members of the council City Engineer
Wilson and members of the Warren
Construction company.
The city officials contended that the
reason bituminous macadam an
Victor pavement had not been consid-
cred in advertising for bids was
they had no standing and were not
considered a class of pavement that the
property owners would care to expert
ment with.
Councilmen Glasford, Mexican and
Bachtold, in an affidavit, said they had
Investigated the merits of both ma
cadam and Victor pavement, by per-
sonally inspecting the former and get
ting the opinion of competent engineers
on both, and that after fully consider
ing the two pavements they had de-
cided that they were not such as the
city should use. The allegations that
the council had failed to estimate the
cost of proposed improvements; had
failed to give property owners due and
proper notice and the city was exceed
ing it's legal limit of Indebtedness
were Ill denied in affidavits made by
the members of the council and Mayor
Hunt
Arehambeau Had Say.
w. A. Archambeau, Walla Walla
manager of the Warren Construction
company, filed an affidavit stating that
the Warren Brothers company and the
Warren Construction company were ir
no way allied and that any contractor
who desired to lay bitulithic pavement
by paying the Warren Brothers COM
pany a royalty of $1.45 a square yard
for finished pavement could make a
profit of from 20 to 80 cents a square
yard.
Following the introduction of the
evidence Judge Brents continued the
arguments until tomorrow morning al
10 o'clock. A decision will probably
not be handed down until tomorrow
afternoon, and perhaps not then, as
there are many conflicting points Il
law that will have to be carefully con-
sidered. A large number of prominent
property owners were present this
morning and took a lively interest IN
the proceedings.
