ing OF merchant vessels has been de
fined by our state department as fol-
lows:
A merchant vessel OF beiligerent nation.
ality may carry an armament and ammu-
milton for the sole purpose Of defense
without acquiring the character OF ship
OF war.
The presence Of an armament and am.
munition on board q merchant vessel ere.
ates presumption that the armament Is
for offensive purposes. but tho owners or
agents may overcome this presumption by
evidence showing that the vessel carries
armament solely for defense.
The result OF the investigation
must show concluslvely that the arma-
mant was not intended for and will rot
be used In offensive operations
1t Is explained that the callber Of
the guns mus, not exceed six inches,
that they be few in number and that
no guns shall be mounted 0n a for
ward part Of the vessel.
Against the application OF these gen
eral rules the German foreign office
filed a protest and took the position
that n merchant vessel Is not permit.
ted TO defend itself against war YES
sci and that a distinction could not be
made between defensive and offensive
armament.
The official view here Is that the
question Of whether a gun was mount
ed on the Persia will depend entirely
on where II was placed. II mounted
forward officials realize that a conten.
ton can be made that the Persia was
armed for destruction OF submarines
and had instructions to ram or destroy
the submarines.

WAS THE PERSIA
An ARMED VESSEL?
4 valed Question Of lnierna-
tional Law.

One Of the most perplexing phases
Of the sinking Of the r. and o. liner
Persia Ii the fact that tho Persia
mounted one AZ inch sun. This was
disclosed In a dispatch from United
States Consul Garrels statement at
Alexandria. Egypt The consul. how
ever. did not state where the gun was
mounted. The Hague convention pro-
vides that n merchant ship may carry
a gun mounted on the stern for pur-
poses Of defense without being con-
sidered an armed ship.
The application Of the principles Of
international law 10 the limited arm.

TWO LAND GRANT BILLS.

TWO LAND GRANT BILLS.
Two bills are now before congress
having for their purpose the settle
ment of the o. & c. railroad land
grant. One was introduced in the
senate on December 7th by Senator
Chamberlain. the other in the house
Tuesday by Congressman Hawley.
It is a matter to be regretted that
there can not be unity OF action in
the congressional delegation from
Oregon upon so vital an issue. SEN
ator Chamberlain is following line
of action that is opposed In its first
principle to the wish Of the people
Of this state as expressed in the
Salem conference. The senator is a
politician, and he tried for the spot
light in being the first to present his
land grant bill But its first provi-
sion should condemn the measure to
the people Of Oregon. for II it should
become law the entire land grant of
1890, 900 acres would revert to the
federal government, and thus be re-
moved from the tax roll. Whatever
merit might be contained in some
later provisions of the Chamberlain
bill, this first provision opens the way
to the danger that is most men
acing, the final inclusion OF much
Of the land within forest reserves.
The Salem land conference repre-
sented the will of the people of the
state that will be most affected by
whatever action Is taken, and the re-
solutions adopted at that conference
must therefore be taken as the opin-
ion Of Oregon. There is nothing to
be gained now by going behind the
action Of the conference. and II con-
gress is disposed to consider the wish
OF Oregon at all, 1t will give due con-
sideration to the voice of that confer
ence.
Congressman Hawley has put the
issue squarely up to congress by the
introduction of bill that meets the
will of Oregon as expressed at the
Salem conference. Mr.. Hawley states
that his purpose is to provide for the
transfer of the lands at the earliest
possible moment, and to keep them
on the tax rolls and avoid constitu-
tional complications. Under Mr..
Hawley's bill the title is to remain
with the railroad company pending
transfer to settlers under the terms
Of the original grant, thus keeping
them where they can be taxed and
eliminating the possibility of their
inclusion in reserves that are al
ready overgrown and burdensome.
The bill requires that the terms Of
the grant now be complied with,
which is what Oregon wants and
what the supreme court has decreed.
The rights of settlers upon the lands
are given due and just consideration,
though the great army of specula-
tors who filed" upon the tracts from
a purely speculative motive Is not
recognized. The supreme court held
that these spectators had no rights
W 'ohSiNcIs uSNeiluelcSo lnSg dIt
represented at Washington by a
strong lobby, headed by one s. A. D.
Puter, through whom many Of the
filings, at so much per file, were
made. The Hawley bill gives first
preference rights to settlers now on
the land. second preference to those
who made settlement in good faith
at any time II they again make appli-
cation and new settlement within six
months. The preference rights Of
