A few days ago the London Chron
icle said it would be fortunate for the
United States if the Filipinos should
offer some resistance to American oc
cupation of the islands, says the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat. Resistance, it
intimated, would be to promptly and
so thoroughly crushed that it would
never be attempted again, and the
Americans would have a free band to
establish an orderly and beneficent
government in the islands. This is
sound sense, of course. If Aguinaldo
should be tempted to fight at Iloilo or
anywhere else the end of his career as
a mischief-maker would come immedi
ately, and such concessions to his
countrymen as the United States
would otherwise grant would be post
poned. The Spaniards bribed Agui
naldo into submission just before the
war with the United States began.
Perhaps he would like another sub

OUK INDl'tnitlll ritnuUKHH.
No other feature of current new id
more remark iblo t an tho industrial
progress of tho United States. In
Asia, Australia and other Pacific
islands, and South America, our manu
factured products are making steady
progress, and different European
countries feel called upon to adopt de
fensive moHsures against American
competition. Tho inventive genius of
the American mechanic, coupled with
our inexhaustible supplies of coal,
iron, indeed almost all raw material,
and agricultural products, seem des
tined, in the near future and for a
long tirno to come, to giva us com
mand of the markets of the world Of
course other nations will erect defen
sive barrieas against the introduction j
of our products as Germany is now
doing but the increasing facilities
for exchange, and tho natural disposi
tion to buy where one can buy cheap
est, will gradually sweep these away
and give us trio lull bonont ol our
great natural advantages.
As a natural and inevitable result of
this indu-trial progress, it has recent y
been manifested in d fferent ways, that
the United States is becoming a power
in the money markets of tho wo Id.
First appears a statement that ltus-ia
is feeling around New Yoi k to ascer
tain whether a great national loan
could be floated there at reduced rates
of interest; the Loudon financial
papers note the wonderful balance of
trade in our favor, for the current
year, in the markets of the world; the
New York banks give out statements
of thir increasing accumulations of idle
money and the low rates of interest
resulting, and now comes the state
ment of the governor cf a great Lon
don bank that "for the first time he
believed it might be said that it was
not Europe that had financied the
United States, but that New York had
financed Europe."
And yet in the face of all this Wil
liam Jennings Bryan gives notice that
he is preparing for another "crime of
of 1873 calamity, sixteen to one" cam-
THE N1CAKAOIIA CANAL.
The original prosecution of this
great enterprise is annually becoming
of more commanding importance to
the United States and the civilized
world. The military ginius of Gen.
Grant, coupled with the comprehensive
grasp of his mind, made him the friend
of the proposed work from the begin
ning. He appreciated f om the start,
what congress has been so s'.ow to ap
preciate, the value of a ship canal at
some point near the present route that
should bring our Pacific coast states
into closer naval communication with
our Atlantic seaboard. Our latest war
demonstrated tha correctness of his
forecast. Now a clear majority of all
parties and sections seem to bo ready
to act. Only two obstacles worth men
tioning seem likely to deliy action.
The first is the obstructive polity of
the trn ns-con tinental railroads ac
tuated in this cise by purely un
patriotic gread. It is to bo hoped
that this will be swept aside with
merciless and patriotic promptness.
The secmd difficulty cannot be dis
posed of so easily it is the question
whether the work should be entrusted
to private enterprise, or taken up as a
great national concern. Of the latter
policy Representative Hepburn of
Iowa seems to be tho strongest advo
cate. The wisdom of his views crows
upon one as he reflects upon the large
ness tf the work, and the multiplicity
as well as deliocy, of national and
international interests at stake. But
at last this matter is fairly before the
American people. On this, its friends
may congratulate themselves. Fcr its
importnnce is so manifest and its early
co-np'.ction is so ti"" t for our e.m
uneicial uolfvi- . s v.-.ll as our mater
ial safely, I hat srme solution, : nd
probably the wi.-est so ution raaj be
expected at the ntxt, if not during1 the
present, short term f congress.
ISIORJlAflON AND OPINION.
The late Senator Morrill, since his
first year in Washington, always gave
a reception on his birthday, April 14
Though he probably took up less sp:ce
in the congressional record than any
of his colleagues, he always made a
speech early in the session, sent a
copy bound in Russia leather to every
senator and a paper-bound copy to
every voter in Vermont.
Under the new order from the post
office department all money order of
fices are required to ensh pension
checks without charge. Money orders
may also be drawn payable at the of
fice of issue. This matter is a step in
the direction of postal savings banks
and at light expense a person can
make the government custodian of his
savings.
Advice is said to be cheap. The old
maids are usually best informed as to
the weaning of babies, old bachelors
know just how to rear boys; a news
paper advises its readers to "write it
1899," but dates its issue "1S98." Ne

An incident occurred at the court
house at McMinnville, Tenn., the
other day that is unique in the crimi
nal annals of the state. William
Brown had been on trial for several
days charged with the murder of his
wife, and yesterday afternoon the jury
returned a verdict of guilty of murder
in the first degree, which means hang
ing in that state Just as the judge
was about to pronounce sentence one
of the jurymen stated that he had
passed through the trial under the
impression that it was John, the
brother of the murdered woman, who
was on trial, and not the husband, and
that he had view the testimony from
an entirely different standpoint than
he would have dono had ho thoroughly
underctood the ruse. This develop
ment necessitated Petting tho verdict
aside, which the judge did after some
rather p inted rem rks at the sover
eign who h id sit through five day of
an exciting criminal investigation
and h d nt been able to learn who
was on trial.

During the course of a speech in tho
senate tho other day Mr. Caffery of
Louisana read a long extract from a
large, cloth-bound book. Some of the
phrases attracted the attention of
Senator Spooner, who was among Mr.

"From what is the senator reading':"'
"lam reading," replied Mr. Cattery
with crushing emphasis, "from the

Power of a Pound of Coat
A curious and i.-teresting calculation
has been made on the dynamic power
of coal. From this we learn that a
single pound of pood steam coal has
within it dynamic power equal to the
work of one man for one day. Three
tons of the same coal represent a man's
labor for a period of twenty years, and
one square mile of a seam of coal, hav
ing a depth of four feet only, repre
sents as much work as 1,000,000 men
can pc "orm in twenty years. Such
calculations as the above may serve
to remind us how valuable a commod
ity coal really is.

NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers at the Battle of Santiago de
Cuba Were All Heroes -Their Heroic
Efforts in Getting. Ammunition and
Rations To the Front Saved the Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. :5,
writing from Santiago do Culm, on
July 2'i. says: "We all had diarrhoea
in more less violent form, and when
we ianded wo had no time to seo a
doctor, for it was a c tso of rusli and
rush night and day to keep tho troops
supplied with amunition and rations,
but thanks to Chamberlain's Cotie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we
were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, I sincerly believe
that at one critical time this medicine
was the indirect savior of our army,
for if tho packers had been unable to
wor k there would have been no way
of getting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself
had the good fortune to lay in a sup
ply of tnis medicine for our pack-train
before wo left Tampa, and I know in
four cases it absolutely saved life."

A GREAT FRENCH ETCHER.
Would Have Iiern a Fine Painter hut
for Color lilludnea.
Charles Meryon born in 1821 was
brought up to the navy, going first in
1837 to the naval school at Brest, says
Pall Mall Gazette. As a youth, he
sailed round the world. He touched
at Athens; touched at the then savage
coasts of New Zealand; made sketches,
a few of which, in days "when most of
his greater work was done, he used
as material for some of his etchings.
Art even then occupied him, and deep
ly interested as he soon got to be in
it, he seems to have had a notion that
it was less dignified than the profes
sion of the navy, and after awhile he
chose deliberately the less dignified
because it was the less dignified. lie
would have us believe so, at any rate;
he wished his father to believe so. And
in 1845, having served creditably and
become a lieutenant, he resigned his
commission. A painter he could not
be. The gods, who had given him,
even in his youth, a poetic vision and
a firmness of hand, had denied him the
true sight of color; and I remember
seeing hanging up in the salon of M.
Burty, who knew him, a large, impres
sive pastel of a ship cleaving her way
through wide, deep waters, and the
sea was red and the sunset sky was
green, for Meryon was color blind. Hj
would have to be an engraver. He
entered the workroom of one M. Blery,
to whom in after times, as his wont
was. he engraved some verses of his
writing appreciative verses, sincere
and unfinished "a toi, Blery, men
maitre." The etchings of Zeeman.the
Dutchman, gave him the desire to etch.
He copied with freedom and interest
several of Zeeman's neat little plates,
and addressed him with praise.?, on
another little copper, like the one to
Blery "a Zeeman, pointre des mate
lots." Newest Shades for Electric Light.
A novelty in shades for electric
lights turns out to be a big cluster of
silk rhododendrons, in crimson, deep
pink and ruby red. According to the
New York Commercial Advertiser, such
a cluster hides the bulb completely and
is made safe from combustion by a
fireproof lining. Roses, hydrangeas
and hawthorn are utilized for the same
purpose. Ornamental bronze figures
are made to hold branches, vines and
reeds, specially mounted tor electric
lights, each light having a floral shade.
Persons who lead a life of exposure
are subject to rheumatism, neuralgia
and lumbago, will find a valuable
remedy in Hallard's Snow Liniment;
it will banish pains and subdue infla
mation. Price 25 and 50 cents. F. G.
