COLONEL PARKER AS A BOOSTER

Colonel Frank j. Parker has returned
from a swing around the circle which
took in most of the United States.
Wherever he went he talked of the
resources and advantages of the Pa
cific northwest and of the Walla Walla
valley in particular Although not en-
ployed as a railroad emigration agent.
he is one of the most valuable men in
that line in the country. At the meet
ing of the National Mining association
at FL Paso, Texas, attended by several
hundred delegates, Colonel Parker was
one of the favorite speakers and most
popular ra-con-teurS and he never fail
ed to put in good word for Washing
ton and Oregon. After many years of
hard knocks and adventures, Colonel
Parker has retired from business on a
comfortable income and as the wicked
have ceased from troubling him, he is
known as hail fellow and bon vivante
all over the country He finds atten-
tive listeners to his stories wherever
he goes and there is no doubt that the
good things he is saying of VALE
Walla and of the Pacific northwest in
general are not pearls cost hoeor~

the policy of giving the Philippines
independence, was rejected as having
no relevancy to the bill. The bill itself
is more consistent with the Philippines
becoming part of the United States
than of their becoming totally foreign
soil. 1t provides for free trade with
the islands after April IL, 1909. The
United States has absolute free trade
with no foreign country.
The discussions of what will event.
ually be done with the Philippines Is
a side issue as far as the bill was
concerned. 1t was a revenue measure
for the relief of the islands and for
the increase of trade between them and
the United States

VOTE FOR THE WATER BONDS.

There should be a solid vote on the
30th inst. in favor of the issue of bonds
for building a gravity water system.
gravity water system on the 30th inst.
may not be entirely satisfactory to
every voter in all its details, yet it is
the best that can be had without more
dangerous and costly delays and it is
the part OF wisdom to accept it. If
the citys population is to continue to
grow at the present rate an adequate
water supply must be provided. Even
now the people in some parts of town
are dependent upon wells, and there is
large suburban population that would
soon be annexed to the city If they
could be assured of a good supply of
water for their houses and lawns and
for protection from fire.
People generally do not know to
what straits the water department was
reduced last summer to supply all it's
patrons. Water Superintendent Knight
was on the go day and night seeking
new sources of supply and in working
the pumps to their greatest capacity
If the insurance companies had known
how low the supply was at times and
how inadequate for coping with a big
fire in the business district. there is no
doubt they would have either raised
their rates in this city to the maximum
or would nave cancelled their risks in
the business district altogether
The ely of Wala Walla connot af-
ford to face another dry season with So
scanty a water supply. If this bond
issue is authorized water from upper
Mill creek will be flowing in the city's
pipes by next July and all danger of
water famine or of. disastrous con-
migration will have been overcome.
The Statesman believes that the
$3.50, 900 asked for will be honestly and
economically handled by the mayor
and council and that the time for
crossing the Rubcon has been reached
If we wait much longer the Rubicon
will run dry and there will be no glory
in crossing it while Wlala Walla's
people are furnishing for water.

THE PHILIPPINE TARIFF

Nothing so becomes a great nation
as great action. In passing the
Philippine tariff bill the house took
another step toward fulfilling the mis-
sion undertaken by this country of
bringing peace, prosperity and a flu
ture full of hope to the people whom
We rescued from Spanish misrule. The
lrst step was in freeing Cuba and set
ing her up in business as a nation
the second was in giving Cuba fraar
trade with her big brother The third
step was taken when the products of
the Philippines, except sugar. rice and
'ooacco' were put on the free list, and
on these the duty was reduced to %
per cent of the Dingley schedules.
The bill meets with the approval of
all representatives of the people ex-
cept few who have local reasons for
supposing that some beet sugar
planters would turn them out of con-
gress If they voted for it. They de-
serve to be turned out for not having
better appreciation of the spirit of
intelligence of their constituents.
Ihere is no danger that the Philip
pines VIII flood this country with
sugar when Hawaii and Cuba. much
nearer 10 us, nave not done it. The
tact is thai the sugar business has
orospered and increased in California

LOUBET, PRESIDENT OF FRANCE.

Seven years ago when Emile Loubet
drove through the streets of Paris to
the Elysee, president of France, the
French did not know whether to boot
or laugh. None Of them thought to ap-
plaud The little country lawyer and
senator had been chosen out of the
crowd of candidates because the po-
litical leaders would suffer none of
win, and he was what Americans call
a dark horse.
AS the little man drove in the splen-
did carriage to the magnificent palace,
he felt more like a man going to be
hung. But he did not quail at the task
before him. He was thorough repub-
lican and believed that France with all
her follies was devoted to republican
Institutions Consistently ne has la
bored to magnify not himself, but the
republic, and he retires from office
having conquered not merely the impe-
rial factions but France itself There
is no prince or potentate in Europe
today who commands the respect paid
to the little president of France.
Whenever France was in a tight place
it was Loubet who rescued her by his
tact and diplomacy Whenever the
cabinet broke down, as is did frequent
ly, it was LOubet VINO found the man to
reconstruct it. Did France want to
entertain a king, it was Loubet VINO
showed how to 20 it without imitat-
ing kingly state.
Seven years have wrought such a
transformation in the attitude of
France toward this man as has seldom
been seen in any country. The peasant
president is more truly king of France
than any Bourbon who ever sat upon
mis- gilded throne, for Loubet reigns in
the hearts and in the confidence of the
people.

Ben Franklin had no personal en-
emies. In writing to John Jay he
says:
Il have some enemies in England
but they are my enemies as an Amer1-
can. l have also two or three in
America who are my enemies as a
minister, but thank God there are not
in the whole world any who are my
enemies as a man, for by His grace
through a long life, I nave been en-
abled so to conduct myself that there
can say, Ben Franklin has wronged
me-"

STAND BY THE PRESIDENT.

The dispatches from Washington
outline a plot to do the president, pro-
vided first his popularity can be
broken.
OF course there are always a number
of people in Washington who want to
see the president broken on the wheel.
They are, first, the disappointed office
seekers. These swarm in all hotels
and boarding houses of the capital.
They outnumber the grateful recipi-
ents of office as the sands of the sea
outnumber the boulders on the shore.
They are forever of the opinion that
the president could have appointed
them had he wished. In this opinion
they are sedulously encouraged by the
congressman who recommended them.
These always prefer the president to
carry the responsibility of the disap-
pointment rather than themselves.
Then there are the disgruntled mem
bers of both houses who have not
been sought or it has been sought and
government Their advice has not
been sought or it has been sought and
not followed. Besides, there are in
congress cranks of the constitutional
man who would nave made a better
president himself. All these charac-
tiers the president must contend with
even in times of peace. But when a
time of war arrives, when Ahe presi-
dent is leading a great fight as when
Cleveland set out to repeal the silver
purchase bill, or when President Nc
Kinley sought to prevent war between
this country and Spain, or when Pres
ident Roosevelt attempts to settle the
railroadrate question, the noise
around the ears Of the president rises
to a shrieking and maddening din.
The waning of the presidents pop
ularity is today the shibboleth of a
thousand agents of corporations whose
masters fear him. What they would
like to see they affect to see. What
these eminent vultures are trying to
do is to create the presidents unpop-
ularity by pretending to see it already
in existence
We have only this to say, that this
is no time to desert Theodore Roose-
welt, and We have no idea that the
people are going to do it. He is en-
gagged in the biggest fight against the
biggest combination ever undertaken
by a president. The people should
and do understand that the fight which
is being made on the president is
really made on them.
If the people will but keep this in
mind they will see the point of all the
poll parroting in the senate about the
presidents usurpations of legislative
functions of all the vaporings about
the cruelty practiced on Mrs. Morris.
prominent business men" over the
presidents unsafeness.
If the president had not undertaken
the railroad job ne would have been as
popular in the senate as he is in the
country. If ne should yield in this
light there would be a wonderful re-
vival of confidence in the president in
millionaire clubs.
The president is not seeking that
KIND of popularity. He is still stand
ing for the square deal and the people
who have no interest in a crooked deal

dent

A physician points out that several
fallacies are common with regard to
the weight Of the human body. The
man who congratulates himself ON his
gain Of several pounds in weight in a
given period may have no cause eor
rejoicing, for he may be under a delu-
sion. Very few persons, says the in
vestigator, have any correct idea Of
their own weight As a matter Of
fact the weight Of the body Is continu-
ally changing owing to innumerable
influences. On q warm day, after
breakfast, a man will lose more than a
third Of pound per hour. Seventy per
cent Of the body contains water, and
its weight varies constantly. The in
ference to be drawn from the loss or
gain Of a pound or two may be mis-
trusted. Fluctuations Of a few ounces
are a sign that the body is in healthy
state

The Wine and Spirit Gazette is
greatly alarmed over the fact that the
Anti-saloon League last year collected
the sum of $339.479 and spent it in
aggressive and destructive" work
against the saloon. 1t seems to have
gotten results, too. In Ohio it has
helped to put the lid down on Cincin-
natl and Toledo, two towns which con-
tribute as literally per capita to the
support of the Gazette's leading ad-
vertisers as any in the country.

While every good citizen of Walla
Wal1a welcomes every new business
enterprise to this city, yet all who
believe in a city beautiful must regret
the destruction of one of the prettiest
lawns in the city on the Betz property
at the corner of Birch and South Third
streets to make a suitable site for a
lumber yard That section of the city
has heretofore been one of the most
attractive residence districts, and if
there was one piece of property more
desirable than all others for a beautiful
home site it was the old McGilivray, or
Betz property, including the old Fruit
fair grounds. 1t would be better in
the long run if lumber yards were re-
quired to be located farther from the
fire limits.
