NO INSURANCE NECESSARY.

AT the recent annual convention OF
the National Association OF Cement
Users was expressed the conviction,
amounting almost to indignation, that
prevailing insurance rates are unjust
to the owners OF reinforced concrete
structures. Ii is so well understood
that reinforced concrete surpasses all
other materials in this respect that
it was natural to hnd impauence
manifested on the part OF those direct
ly concerned in the matter says &c.
ment Age. There is every likelihood,
however, that it will never be neces-
sary for builders OF highclass rein
forced concrete structures TO imper
tune insurance companies to make
proper concessions. The officers OF
the leading fire insurance companies
are too intelligent and iar-seeing to
cut off their revenues by perpetuatlne
the unjust discrimination that pre-,
walls at present. II is altogether like
ly thar they have not given the sub
iect the serious consideration it de-
serves. When they do. they will be
Quick TO see that il Is better to &C.
cept a low rate on thoroughly hre
proof structure than to have the own
er decline to take out insurance. That
is exactly what will happen il exces'
sive rates prevail The individual
who owns a structure entirely OF re-
linforced concrete, with such supple
mentary safeguards as hreproof
doors, wireglass windows and protec,
tedopenings, may insure contents, but
he will not worry about the structure
itself. Doubtless the majority would
prefer TO insure against minimum
damage, such as might involve the
restoration Of concrete surfaces, for
example, but not at excessive rates
The subject is one that concerns the
insurance companies more than the
owners Of reinforced concrete build
ings, as there is increasing confidence
on the part of the latter that such
structures are entirely safe,

WASN'T HUDSON, THEY SAY,
Critics Deny He Was The First Dis
cover OF River.

NEW YORK. Feb, Is. After care.
full investigation the Treasury De-
partment has come to the eonelu'
sion that Hendrix Hudson was not,
the discoyerer Of the Hudson river
after all. This fact was made known
at a meeting last night Of the New
York Society OF Founders and Pa.
triots Of America, a committee which
has under consideration the placing
OF a tablet on the walls Of the new
custom house in eommemoration OF
Hudson's discovery. Before the work
can be done, the approval OF the
treasury department is necessary and
a member Of the committee last night
submitted report, including letter
sent to Secretary Cortelyou by w l.,
Knnhardt which said that it was not
strictly accurate to say that Hudson
discovered the Hudson river and that
the river had been visited by at least
two earlier navigators, Verrazano
and Gomez. Commenting on this bit
of information Assistant Secretary
Winthrop wrote;
"From this letter you will note that
the accuracy of the legend on the tab
let is questioned and it is suggested
that before furthe raction is taken in
the matter that you have the state
ment verified and advise this Office
of the change, il any that you con-
slider advisable.
The committee will go ahead. how
ever, on the theory that Hudson was
10 all practical purposes the discov-
cred of the river and with the belief
that If such technicalities were all
lowed to stand in the way it would
be about the same as denying that
Columbus discovered America, as
this continent had been visited by
Norsemen many centuries before.
Discussion OF Hudson's claim to
fame is particularly interesting at
this time in view Of the approaching
Hudson-Fulton centennial, for which
elaborate preparations have been
made.

OF COURSE IT STAYS HEREl

The mighty effort Of the Puget
Sound commercial bodies to have the
headquarters and feet OF the Thir-
teenth Lighthouse district removed
from the Columbia River to Belling-
ham has fallen fat, and the men and
business and ships remain where
they are; the offices and officers at
Portland. the vessels and buoy sta
ton at Astoria.
There are excellent reasons for
this. Chief among them is the fact
that the steamers must be held where
they can get instant dispatch when
called to the seas for duty. 1t would
never do to berth them where from
$50 to 200 miles intervene between
them and the coast lines. HIRE they
are within the very hour of deep. blue
water, with every inshore facility that
can be imagined. ready at hand with
in actual sight Of the sea. II is busi-
ness, and good business, that keeps
them here.
AS for the Offices, the headquarters
should, necessarily. be within easy
touch Of the department depots and
docks, and Portland is as good a
place, perhaps, as any within reason
able touch of Columbia; but Astoria
would be the better point and port
for even that element OF the business.
Anyway it is easy to understand why

THE NORMALS.

For years there has been growing
adverse sentiment in Oregon against
State support Of the Normal schools;
and it has found its logical express
sion in the denial Of the Legislature
to continue the appropriations in that
behalf. The FIVE schools, with the
single exception of Monmouth, have
been squarely turned down, and it IS
likely that Monmouth will figure in
the general collapse, in time.
There is much to be said for and
against the issue Of State aid for the
Normals; but the Statewide disincli-
nation to foster them is so marked
that argument becomes practically
valueless, at this time. In this utili-
tartan age when commercialism
reaches out its proht-grabbing
hand and absorbs every element Of
human action and industry, it is not
to be wondered at that the educa-
tional interests should be made a
basis of business, and that the old
fashioned and semi-scared notion that
the State must help to maintain all
kinds Of schools, should be relegated
to the limbo of things out-grown and
unnecessary.
The idea seems TO be very popular
all over the land that it is enough for
the State to richly and generously
maintain the public schools and give
the children the first and best of its
care and support, leaving the culture
and equipment of the teachers to
such sources, in business sense, as
they shall devise for themselves or
the perspicuity of others may pro-
vide. And the reversion Of this
phase of our educational work to the
realm Of business" may yet prove to
be the best and cheapest for all con-
cerned, provided always, the State
sets up and enforces, the best Of
standards for the qualification OF its
teachers, a matter it is not likely to
overlook.

NASAL CATARRH.
T. F. Laurin Sells the Great Remedy
That Cured Mrs, Karberg

Here is a very simple yet wholly
sincere statement Of Michigan
woman, who was cured by using
Hyomei-the no cure no pay remedy
for catarrh, asthma, hay fever, Group,
coughs and colds.
"A bad case Of catarrh was cured
for me by the use Of Hyomei. The
trouble affected my head, nose and
eyes, and was very annoying and dis
agreeable, and the cure, from the use
of Hyomei, was very gratifying.
Hyomei has from me strong rec
ommend and endorsement."-Mrs. Z.
Karbcrg, 2l3 Kingsley St, Ann Ar
Dor, Mich, Nov. 10, 1903.
Thousands of just such letters are
in existence, and thousands more
would be but for the desire to avoid
publicity,

WEATHER VICTIMS.

For months the people Of the
United States have been storm and
wind swept; the pressure and dark
ness OF an abnormal winter have been
constant and severe; the ordinary
physical and mental conditions Of the
people have been warped and blended
to the color-schene, temper, and gen
eral consistency, Of the gray winter
days; as a consequence, we are not
as healthfuI. happy and peaceful, nor
as busy and prosperous, as we should
be. All organic bodies, and move
ments, are. notoriously, at logger
heads and accomplishing their ends
BY the hardest witness the Con-
gress and the Legislaturesl; business
Is dulIed and impeded by delays and
losses that sour and disappoint the
manufacturer and merchant and ship

the patron everywhere; crime and
insanity and accident are on the in
crease as a direct result OF the
dubious and disastrous weather; even
our inclination for. and indulgence
in, amusements and social pleasure,
are eircumscribed and half-hearted;
and so on, all down the line, the long
and dismal season lends its weight Of
cheerlessness TO countersct the nor

There is nothing local about it. The
same report comes from every center
in the land; from New England, the

States, and all along the Pacific

matter, We have but to note the vital

II only say" replied Mr.. Aldrich,
that the men trying to destroy this
tariff are still doing business at the
old stand"
II am not trying to destroy this
tariff" retorted Mr.. Dolliver Il hope
to leave it Republican tariff that
can be defended in the United States. :"
Saying that the senator from Rhode
Island had hurt his feelings by his
criticism, Mr.. Dolliver added: He
desired apparently to put me outside
the breastworks, where so many good
people have perished for want of ven
tilation." But. he said, despite
criticism. he proposed to perpetuate
the work of others who had formerly
attempted to revise the schedules.
Mr.. Dolliver declared he was for the
Dingley cotton schedule, and inquired
of Mr.. Aldrich whether cotton manu-
facturers when before the house COM
mittee had not said they did not want
the rates increased.
After the r"-,>mittee.
Mr.. Aldrich said he did not know
what had taken place before that COM
mittec.
When Mr.. Dolliver had spoken for
three hours, Mr.. Tillman requested
that he suspend until tomorrow and
permit the senate to adjourn. Mir.
Tillman declared that he was not
fatigued, for he said, he never had
enjoyed anything more In his life, but
the session had run for six hours. Mr.
DolliVer agreed, but Mr.. Aldrich an
nounced that the discussion of the bill
would go on nevertheless After num-
erous appeals from the South Caro-
linian, Mr.. Aldrich yielded, but he
gave notice that the country was
waiting for the final passage of the
bill and said that better progress
must be made and therefore the ses-
sion hereafter would be longer
Briefly answering some OF Mr.. Dol
livers criticisms regarding the cotton
schedule. Mr.. Aldrich charged that
some samples of goods held up as ex-
hibits had been furnished the Iowa
senator by importers who had de-
stroyed the cotton schedules by OBJ
tanning decisions by the board of gen.
eral appraisers and by the courts. un-
til the protection of sixty per cent had
been reduced to five and six per cent.
He denied that the cotton schedule of
the senate bill was different in any
respect from the Dingley bill, except
that the specific rates were substi-
tuted for the ad valorem rates.
Mr.. Dolliver replied that he did not
intend to conceal from the senate the
identity of those who had advised him.
So far as the sample piece of goods
referred to was concerned, he said,
lit was given to me by as bright a
merchant as there is in America. who
is none the less entitled to my respect
because he marched at the head of a
column 10000 strong the day before
the election in support of the candi-
dacy of President Taft"
Mr.. Aldrich sarcastically remarked
that he had no doubt that these good
men. those respectable men. have in
terests in this matter which are en-
tirely antagonistic to the people of
this country"
