It would be easy for Pa to revolt against the Colombian Government ould not be easy for the Gov press the outbreak. Hence it is as- »mbian Congress in the interests | be inclined to put an end to the situation by ratifying the treaty and present uncertain aving the re ater reports ama do not confirm the first cause of the action of ing the Governor of the province and in attempting to arrest him and put The early report was that the troops had demanded pay him in jail and the Governor had declined it, and that it was to s the Gov fy his men that Cobos ran ut of the country and imprisoned va mbers of the Cabinet. The latest story is that the Governor had not defaulted in the payment rious me of the troops, and was not at all to blame for any- thing that happened. The report ' goes that General Cobos had d T, which champagne flowed freely, and being under the influence of the efiervescent wine, the General effervesced himself and went sparkling forth in a gay humor and upset the government by way of a frolic Ii the champagne story be true, then we will have the paradox of an incident becoming more serious by being proven more trifling. If the Panama situation is ‘so unstable and the government so insecure that it may be turned over whenever champagne is opened et military headq arters, then it is certainly impera- tive that the United States Government take contghl of the isthmus before entering upon the work of com- pleting the canal That is evidently the view taken at Washington, for one report from that city says: “The State De- partment sees in the trouble which has developed in Panama proof of its contention to have control of the canal strip. The provisions of the treaty which provided for policing the strip have been criticized, but if the caprice of a military leader is sufficient for | him to rick a revolution and dispossess civil officers of their authority, and even take them into custody, the United States must have absolutg control’ of u§e isthmus.” Meantime the situation in the Colombian Con- gress, so far as it can be studied from this distance, is mot encouraging. The Congress has a chance to get $10,000,000 as a bonus to start with and a good big income every year from-the canal, and yet it halts and hesitates to ratify the treaty. The republic is in need of money, and the troops are demanding pay- ment. The Government is discussing the advisability of adopting a gold basis for the currency so as to p|;t an end to the fluctuations that are so disturbing to commerce and industry, and still Congress deadlocks an enterprise which promises to provide the republic at once with a sum of gold which to Colombian eyes must seem very attractive indeed. Under such circum- stances it is natural 2 suspicion should arise that the dominant factor"in the situation is not apparent on the surface, and it may be that some foreign power is at work to beat the treaty, e —— A violent fall downstairs recently restored to a Pasadena woman that beautiful and incessantly exer- cised faculty of the fair sex—her voice—without which she had lived for some time.

UT of the confusion of the Democratic camp | O there has come another shout of joy, hailing | the discovery of a Moses to lead the wan- derers out of the wilderness of opposition into tl-{e | promised land of Federal offices and spoils. This | time the shout comes from Pittsburg, and the man hailed as the chosen leader is the old familiar Mary- land boss, Arthur Pue Gorman. | That Gorman would make a good leader for the | machine is unquestionable. He is a past master of | the art of wire-pulling, and he knows all the intrica- | cies of the mechanism of party politics. He kno.ws | how to preach party discipline and how to practice it on occasions. His reputation as a politician is not | surpassed by that of any man in his party, and his | adroitness in evading difficulties is remarkable. He did not support Bryan actively during the campaign of 1806, but neither glid he bolt the ticket. He was wot among those who followed Palmer and Buckner, { neither did he like David Bennett Hill go into re- | tirement and pass the weary months sucking his | paws like an old bear in winter quarters. In sh9rt, | he managed to hunt with the hounds while running [with the hare, and emerged from the campaign .w“h !a good party standing, but at the same time wnth. a | record that led Maryland to go Republican and retire | himi from the Senate. He has now managed to win his way back to the i Senate, and it seems has also managed to quietly work | his way to the front and win a following strong | enough to give him a commanding position as a | Presidential candidate. It is said that not only will | his own State be for him, but that Pennsylvania will fol'ow and the Solid South -will come trooping be- { hind to sustain him in the convention. With such 2 | showing to start with :t is announced he will easily | obtain further support from the East and from the | West, and that Bryan himself will stand in and help | to make the thing unanimous. So far, then, as party leadership is concerned Mr. | Gorman appears to fill the bill of Democratic needs. | When it comes to considering the popular vote, how- | ever, it will be found that the Maryland boss is lack- |ing in many things required of a candidate who is to have a fair prospect of carrying a majority of the Electoral College. His career in the Senate has not | been of a kind to win public confidence. His name is associated with no great measure of public policy, | nor has he shown any of the elements of either a great popular leader or a great constructive states- man. jamong the masses nor give assurance of an adminis tration devoted to the general welfare. In short, he would be a machine candidate merely and could hardly count upon obtaining any support outside of the dyed in the wool stalwarts, who would vote for nybody the convention migit nominate. Moreover, as the issues of the time are now shaping themselves it is more than likely that he would be one of the weakest candidates that Democracy could possibly select. In the Eastern States and in some of the Mississippi Valley States there has been going on for some time a strong agitation in favor of the old Cleveland tariff reform policy, but the nomination of Gorman would stultify that movement, for it is known that Gorman was chief among the Senators who weré accused by Cleveland of “perfidy and dis- honor” because of their opposition to the Wilson tarifi bill. Another important movement the | time is that directed toward the suppression of il- { legal acts on the part of the great corporations of the country. Roosevelt has made a strong record the popular side of that issue, but Gorman has none that his friends would care to see exploited. In short, Gorman can hardly be expected to win the support of any considerable percentage of the independent vote. He will be strong neither with the tariff reformers, the sound money men nor the anti- trust men. His record is against him on every issue of the time. and his nomination would tesult nothing more of in n a charge of the old guard of up as a forlornehope against the sses of the American pebple. Democracy go 2 overwhelming 1 Several Oakland boys attempted a few days ago: to steal a hive of bees. While the boys deserve a modicum of praise for their excursion into the field of original crime, truth compels the announcement that the bees are still in the hive, which in no way | has been disturbed. Another record, however, has been added to the intense individuality of Oaklanders in everything they do. | S merce, in order to make a striking showing of progress and growth in our Asiatic trade, have | resorted naturally enough to the easy method of | comparing pércentages. Our export trade ‘with | China, for example, in 1893 was less than $4,000,000, | but in 1903 it was upward of $19,000,000. The fig- ures as they stand do not amount to much in the in- ternational commerce of our tfme, and are hardly ‘hkel_v to give us pride. When, however, the per- | centage of increase during the decade is noted the | results show up in a way that seems almost like the | realization of the dreams of the most sanguine. | The Bureau of Statistics in a recent bulletin show- ing the growth of our commerce with China presents the figures in this way: “Comparing this growth' | with that of our commerce with other parts of the { world, it may be said that 6ur total exports to Eu- rope in 1903 aggregate a little over $1,000,000,000, ;against $662,000,000 in 1893, having therefore in- ‘lcreased less than 60 per cent during that period; | those to North America amount to about $215,000,- 000, againtt $110,000,000 in 1893, having thus in- creased about 80 per cent; those to-South America | aggregate about $41,000,000, against $32,000,000 in 11803, an increase of about 30 per cent; those to | Asia in 1003 aggregate about $60,000,000, against $16,000.000 in 1893, an increase of 275 per cent. _To Oceanica the total for the year is about $36,000,000, against $11,000,000 in 1893, but the exports are not properly comparable with those of 1803 because of the fact that théy do not include the commerce with the Hawaiian Islands, which is considered as-a part of the domestic commerce of the United States. To Africa the total exports for 1903 aggregate about $38,000,000, against a little less than $6,000,000 in 1893.” It is noted in the bulletin that the figures given of our exports to China do not represent the whole of our exports to that country, as a considerable pro- portion of the goods exported to Hongkong enter China indirectly and should be credited to our trade with that country. Exports to Hongkong last year aggregated in value something more than $8,000,000, making our total exports to China and Hongkong together about $27,000,000, as against $8,000,000 in 1893. Although the percentage method of stating results is not always the most accurate, it nevertheless in this case affords a pleasing proof of the rapidity with TRADE WITH ASIA. TATISTICIQNS of the Department of Com- His candidacy would arouse no enthusiasm | on. which our oriental trade is increasing. As compared with exports of over $1,000,000,000 to Europe the total Aslatic exports of $60,000,000 is smail. Still | the trade is growing. It will be a long time before | the Chinese people become able to consume Ameri- can products in anything like the quantity and the quality that now find markets in Europe, but we may reasonably expect a steady increase right along, and perhaps with the opening of new ports and the awakening of some of the Chinese provinces to civil- ization the time may not be far distant when our ex- ports to China alone will reach a value of $100,000,~ 000 a year. In the meantime we must please our- selves with the big percentages shown by comparing the figures of to-day with those of the comparatively petty trade of a decade ago. The Board of Public Works, greedy for the plums of office and sneeringly blind to public rebuke, has | ereated new and useless positions under its authority. It is unfortunate that the charter, under which the | city is misgoverned, does not provide some remedy for abuses such as this before the evil works serious injury to the municipality. THE LATEST WIRELESS. IRELESS telegraphy has got safely beyond W the experimental stage and has entered the | domain of things practical, and now troubles multiply. Among the rival and competing inventors there are'fights of many kinds with which the pub- lic has long been familiar, and it now appears there is to be a new kind of battle, one unheard of be- fore—a battle,- indeed, which could not have been waged prior to the invention itseli, for it is nothing more nor less than a wireless conflict of wireless forces operating in the atmosphere and mutually de- stroying one another. The report of the impending novelty in industrial conflicts comes from Germany and is contained in a special dispatch from Berlin to the New York Sun. |1t runs thus: “Berlin, July 29.—The combination of German wireless telegraph systems professes its abil- lity to frustrate every attempt of Marconi agents to receive transatlantic messages in England by erect- |ing a strong station on the German coast and pro- | pelling electric waves in the direction of the Marconi {current. Members of the combination repudiate Marconi's assertion that willful interruption would be | chicanery, contending that it would be self-defense against Marconi's attempt to secure a world-wide monopoly.” ¥ | The scheme has a high and mighty sound, and if carried/out may result in stupendous things. Should the Germans erect stations along their coasts to hurl | forth electric waves across the ocean to shut off | | wireless messages from New York to Britain, then | | of course the Mareoni company in . self-defense and in the practice of scientific retaliation would erect | larger stations on the coasts of the United States and |of Great Britain and send forth on their side still | more potent electrical charges to baifle and blight In the end all great national or commercial systems of the | new form of telegraphy would have to follow the — | | [the German systems of wireless telegraphy. {example of the Germans and the Marconi people, land then a telegraph war would be a very extraor | dinary affair indeed. | All must agree with the German assertion that the proposed interruption of the rival system by a wire- ‘]tSS method would not be ‘“chicanery.” Marconi !nmdc use of the wrong word when he hurled that | charge against his foes. The best thing he can do | is to get the controllers of various systems of wire | less telegraphy to hold an international peace con | gress and agree upon a code of wireless ethics. Then |if the Germans or any other rivals set about pro- | | pelling electric waves across the path of his messages fhe can denounce them for committing breaches of | etiquette and get them expelled off the earth fo | violating the ethics of the profession. In the mean- time the public will watch the progress of the con- | test with a good deal of interest: it is a new kind f-fight and promises to be thrilling. NO PANIC IN SIGHT. W was in sight as a result of Wall street’s at- | tack on the waterworks of the great indus- trial combines. It is evident that a break in some- thing more substantial than water must come be- | fore the general prosperity of the country: will feel ia check. In an interview just after the cloudburst in | the street Mr. Ridgely, Comptroller of the Currency, pointed out the solid conditions which make a gen- eral panic impossible. These conditions show that | prosperity has made vast and solid and general ad- | ditions to the wealth of the people. 3 In 1803 we had of money in the country $1,739,000,- “mo. July 1, 1003, we had $2,688,000,000, an increase | of nearly one billion in ten years. In 1892 the banks held in cash $586,000,000. In 1902 this had grown | to $839.000,000. To show the distribution and effect A of the wealth indicated by this increase in the money of the country the increase in farm values may be taken. In 1890 the value of land, improvements and buildings was $13,279,000,000; in 1900 it was $16,674,~ 000,000. The value of farm implements and machin- ery in the same decade increased $267,000,000, and of | livestock $769.000,000. As farm implements and ma- lrhmery and livestock all belong to the land-owner iand are a part of the rural wealth, we find the in- crease of that wealth in land, buildings, implements and stock to be $4.431,000,000, and the present total of rural permanent wealth to be $20,513,000,000. Add to this the value of the crops on the basis of 1900, and the total rural wealth is $25,222,000,000. Every one must admit that the figures show that in the distribution of the wealth of the country the farmer hasssecured his share and is holding on to it. | The value of manufactures increased in one year, ending July 1, 1903, in the sum of $1,050,000,000, and wages increased $232,000,000. These figures are dry, as figures always are, but | they tell a story as interesting as a romance. The | effect is seen throughout the country by the most | careless observer, and there is every justification for the most optimistic view of the future. Another ele- ment which safeguards our financial and industrial stability is the rapid decrease in our foreign debt, which is being extinguished by our foreign creditors. Instead of needing foreign capital, our own is going abroad for investment. On the whole, the rain that fell out of Wall street was from a clear industrial and financial sky, and the shower was localized. e ———————— A report has been circulated that gold has been found in the streets of Baker City.

W. McClung, became the bride of Lieutenant Frederick Horne of the U. S. 8. Alert. The popular couple were en- gaged for some time, but the date of the wedding was not known, so this news will come as a surprise to many friends of the young people. Only a few of the more intimate friends of the bride and groom were present to witness the ceremony. It was simple, and after the vows the bridal party was driven to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Clung. Miss McClung is a society favorite in this city and she has a host of friends. The groom is well known here and is a prom- inent naval officer. Mr. and Mrs. Horne, after a brief honeymoon, will go to San Diego. S Miss Ethel Margaret Robertson of this city will be married August 8 to Warren Payne Lewls. The ceremony will be per- formed in the parlors of the California Hotel by Rev. Willlam Rader. The hon- eymoon will be passed 'in Southern Cali- fornia. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis will take up their residence on Van Ness avenue. .« .o .

TIME TO PROVE HIS CLAIMS ———— Notwithstanding that the heirs of the $500,000 estate of the late Caroline D. Cogswell claim that they need the money, they are having a hard time In securing a distribution of the estate. Their peti- tion for distribution was set for hearing yesterday, but was.continued until Thurs- day afternoon to allow Attorney C. L. Wheeler, for Executor W. G. Henshaw, to find authorities supporting the claim of Henshaw that a contract he has with the heirs, giving him 10 per cent of their legactes in addition to his fees, is a per- fectly legal document. The existence of the contract was ad- mitted in court yesterday by Wheeler. With the admission came a request for several weeks' time to provide proof of its legality, and of Henshaw's unselfish- ness in the matter. Four days was all the court would allow, however, after listening to strenuous objections by At- torney J. S. Partridge for the heirs, who sald that his clients needed the money. They were willing, he said, to allow the | executor to retain in his possession prop- erty valuable enough to provide for the payment of the 10 per cent commission, in the event that the contract was held to be valid, but demanded that Wheeler be compelled to furnish his points and proof of Henshaw’s purity of motive without further delay. The heirs of Mrs. Cogswell are Harry Skellinger, a nephew residing in this cit: and ' Laura Robley, a sister, an her two daughters, Elizabeth Robley and Laura Richardson, who live in Con- necticut. They claim that Henshaw is doing all in his power to delay the dis- tribution of the Cogswell estate because the longer it is held intact the larger his fees will be. ————————— — MEMORIAL LIGHTHOUSE FOR HONOLULU HARBOR Citizens of Hawaii Propose to Erect Station in Honor of the Late * President McKinley. HONOLULU, Aug. 4—The proposal to establish a public park in or near this city as a memorial to the late President McKinley will probably be abandoned. Instead of this tribute to the Chief Ex- ecutive, during whose administration the people of Hawali became citizens of the United States, it is now planned to erect a McKinley memorial lighthouse at the entrance to Honmolulu Harbor. This wou'd be a prominent object from both land and sea, besides being of great practical utility. This project meets with much favor and is likely to be carried into effect.
