Gourley of this city writes as follows to a friend from Nome, Alaska, where he recently went totake charge of some mining oper. gi would have been easy to predict what President Roosevelt would say in a Fourth of July oration. He can talk well on many dif. ferent subjects, he can wisely . discuss the tariff, he has well . defined and settled views on --reciprocity, he is a strong believer in American extension and can give sufficient reasons for his belief; and he can talk convincingly on the Panama canal, the Monroe doctrine and a score of other important ~ national and international topics; but the subject that comes _ forth most readily, the one which is nearest his heart and ations, the date of the letter being June 20th: The good ship St. Paul arrived here safely last Monday evening after a delightful passage of thirteen days from San Francisco. We discharged cargo for twenty-eight hours at Unalaska for the Alaska Commercial . . Company, which has stores there. After we entered the Berhing Sea, and about 100. miles south of Sr. Michaels Bay, we encountered an immense ice flow from the mighty Youkon. It was a beantiful sight and atretched as far-asthe eye could see, There were pieces of ice from the size of a barrel toa mountain and in all fantastic shapes. It was by far the most beantiful. sight Lever beheld, all moving westward, aud occasionally you would see a fox or a walrus floating out to sea on a piece of ice. We picked our way through the openings nicely and found open water und did not encounter any more ice until within For the Benefit of Busy Readers.

I was surprised to find such immense business houses here and you which he prefers to talk about is patriotism. When the choice is left to him he always selects this as a subject. In a Fourth of July oration such a selection is altogether appropriate and consequently, as was to be expected, he has once “more seized the opportunity to assert his views. ile last evening and pisco. tlefleld, the minio t evening from a b nieville. : ‘Bradford, A. 8. Ro: week. He continued to improve until this afternoon, when the bulletin given out stated that a sudden relapse eccurred; which resulted in a hasty summoning of the physicians for consultation. =a) Every one knows what his opinions are. He has announcedsthem often enough. They were the subject of many of his addresses during his California visit. He believes, and every thinking man agrees with him, that the future welfare _ of the country depends on the patriotic devotion of the people, and that the country is doomed if ever the citizen fail in their duty. He is himself the very type of a genuine, sturdy, patriotic American, and is constantly trying to bring others up to his level. But in his oration at the Little Long Island town where he spent his holiday, Roosevelt touched on another and kinder subject, which also occupies a place near his heart, the need of preparing for the defense and advancement of the United States. Especially does he advoeate an increase of the navy. a, “At present,” he said, “there is not a cloud as big as a hand’s breadth on the horizon. We are on terms of good will with all the peoples of mankind. I think that they feel well disposed toward us. I want a good navy, not as a provocative of war but’as a guarantee against war. . want it as the cheapest insurance of peace. 1 want to see peace always in this country, but the peace that comes not to the coward who flinches from the fight but the just armed man, who will neither wrong the weak nor suffer wrong from the strong. I think that is good Americanism and sound common sense, “We only need a small regular army, but ‘we need a first-class navy, a navy equal to. the position we have in the PS world, and it is absalntely necessary that we should keep on with the building up of that navy and that we should keep the navy that we have at the highest point of efficiency in ships, in guns, the men in them and behind them. < @4é4ea464644446 6 : VY CHAMBERLAIN A REPUBLICAN. *HAMBERLAIN, the British Colonial Secretary, would be a good Republican if he lived in the United States. He practically indorsed the policy of that party in a letter to a’ working man, recently published. Chamberlain says that it will be impossible to secure preferential treatment from the colonies without Great Britain placing some duty on wheat, as well as other articles of food, because these are the chief articles of colonial produce. “Whether this will raise the cost of living is a matter of opinion,” says Chamberlain. ‘There is no doubt, in many cases duty of this kind will be paid by the exporter, and it really depends on the extent of competition among the exporting countries. For instance, I think it is established that the duty of one shilling recently imposed on imported wheat was met by a reduction in prices and freight rates by the States, and therefore, the tax did not fall on the consumer here, but even if the price of food is raised, the rate of wages will certainly rise in greater proportion. This has been the case both in the United States and Germany.” Referring to the predictions that ‘his proposals would ruin the country, Chamberlain says: “How are we to account for the fact that the increase of exports, wages and getieral . prosperity during the last twenty-nine years in the United States and Germany have been greater than in Great Britain, which is the only civilized country in the world to enjoy the blessings of unrestricted free imports?” Will Foreman, leader of thé mob in Decatur, Ind., riote, was fined $1 for assault and battery.
