Victoria, B. c. Sept. 26,-That be-
fore the American battleship fleet has
Australian shores its visit will have
proved an epoch-making event Is
borne out in no uncertain manner by
descriptions and statements in mail
advices per the Canadian-Australlan
liner Mariana, which has just arrived
here. The $1OO,OO,OOO in buff and
white which rode at anchor in sydney
harbor has taught Australia two great
lessons, and incidentally has taught
the United States something Of which
she had only a vague consciousness.
The fleet and its lessons are dealt
with I'm an exhaustive manner in the
Sydney Morning Herald of August 29.
and in its summing up of the visit
this paper has disclosed two important
IL hitherto yelled truths.
"Just across the Pacific" it says,
Elves a white people which must for
sheer size and weight of numbers be
always the greatest white people of
the Pacific. We may hope to be a
good second. This great young peo.
pie is sprung from the same stock as
ourselves. II is faced with some of
the same big questions in the Pacific.
These two peoples must always live
as neighbors on this ocean. No mat
ter what distinctions international
law. or geography, or common ignor-
ance may draw. we know that the
United states is in reality our Big
Brother.
"And We have learned another les
son. We have seen what a very help.
less place this Australia would be if
the sea were not its own castle, kept
for it by the great people to whom it
belongs, We have seen that the nation
over the water is taking advantage
of the sea for its fortress-not mere
" fortress but fortress that
can 20 about the world and
enforce by offense an honor
able peace wherever it wishes
The people of America have come to
think the same way as the people of
Britain about the command Of the
sea and what it means to them"

SHOWS HERNIISTON WHAT
IRRIGATION WILL DC

We commend the lrrigon display
to be seen at Pendleton next week tt
our neighbors from Hermiston,
says the Irrigon Irrigator. Irrigon
and Hermiston are "tarred with the
same stick" our soil is the same as
theirs, the Umatilla furnishes both
places with water, and IL one succeeds
the other must. If one fails-but in
the vacabularies of Irrigon and Her
miston there is no such word as fail!
We may seem TO lie dormant while
the trees are growing. but success for
both ventures can be spelled in big
letters.

BUSY PREPARING
 ELECTION LISTS Secretary Of State Is Sending
 Out The Names DAVIDSON FACTION IS OUT Democrats Are Only Ones That Have Full State Ticket-Railroad Com mission Discusses Modified
 ton of Recent Order.
DAVIDSON FACTION IS OUT

Montgomery October 5.-(Special.)- Without the Davidson faction of the re- publican party, which has asked to be eliminated the ticket for election at the November balloting will have the nomi- nees of six parties and carry in the neigh borhood of 125 names. Cyrus B. BroWh' chief clerk to Secretary of State Frank N. Julian, will be busy for the next ie" days getting the lists out to the probate judges Monday night at midnight was the last moment when nominee eould get on or off the ticket.
 The nominees of the populists were the last to be filed with MT. Julian. The olh- CTS are the democrats, republicans, lnde- pendence league. prohibitionists and so- cialists. The democrats are the only ones with a full ticket, they of course, nav ing men out for the state offices as well as the congressional The republicans have nominees for most of the offices, be- ing out only First Second and Third dis trict congressman. J. o. Middleton, Tn the Fourth, is a fusion nominee of the republicans and the populists.
 By the end of Monday most of the nom- inees of the Davidson faction were off the ticket and it is not likely that any of them will finally go to print. All day Saturday and Monday Secretary of State Julian was receiving requests for the re- moVal of names and requests were being granted within the limits of the law. The emblem of the Davidson faction will not be in use. It is also fact that no em- blem has been filed by the prohibitionists, though the election will be held for them just the same.
 The election will make choice for ten congressman, though there are but nine districts, the odd one coming about by the selection of a man for the short term of the late A. A Wiley in the Second. State offices to be filled besides congress- men are president of the railroad com mission. two members of the supreme court bench and state game and fish com missioner
 The only change that will be brought about at the capitol will be the selection of J. J. Mayfield of Tuscaloosa to thi supreme court in the place of Judge Jon athan Haralson, who retires voluntarily after being on the bench since 1876 Charles Henderson goes back as head oi the railroad commission, Judge Simpsok to the supreme court and John H. Wal lace, Jr game and fish commissioner
 There will be two ballots for the state ticket in each one of the counties and three in the Second district. where congressman will be chosen for the short term, the election for that being separate and held under special act There will be the general ticket in each coun- ty, carrying the state, county and beat nominees and the two proposed amend ments providing for biennial sessions of the legislature and the building of roads. The new county amendment ballot will be separate.
 The lists are certified to the probate judges, along with supplies for returns. The rest is done by the counties. They provide for the elections and make the. returns

Railroad Commission.

The Alabama railroad commission spent most of Monday discussing the application of the wholesale grocers of Birmingham for a modification of the order by which every item of an order must be marked. It was desired that meal and flour in sacks be allowed to go by marking one in each shipment, the contention being that brand and weight would be identif- cation enough. The railroad people say that this is not so and that they must have every sack marked in order to keep up with what is sent out and avoid claims for losses

State Not Behind.

The delay in the argument of the rail road state litigation. appealed from the United States court at Montgomery, came about through the inability to get the records printed in time for briefs. This was caused by the enormous volume of business. The postponement to Novem- Der is explained in the following letter from the clerk of the court of appeals to Attorney General A. M. Garber; "In view of the size of the six records in the railroad commission case, it is very doubtful if they can be printed in time to enable the parties to properly brief them in time for hearing at our session at Montgomery" After this, by agree
 ment of all parties, the argument was set over to November in New Orleans.
