Nebraska I'lattiinouth JO AT last The State Journal comes out clearly aainst Thompson for sena tor by puh!ihin a picture of his face. N believ r in physiognomy could vote for him after seeing that. The Washington correspondent of th..- State Journal brings out eom in teresting f icts, throwinglight on the Miles-Eagan affair. Mirny today would rather be in the shoes of Genernl Higan than of General Miles. Prob al ly many more wi;l be ot that mind before tho pffair ends. The gi avity of the Eagan caEe at present lies in the fact that if the court martial finds General Eagan guilty he must be dismissed from the army unless axecutive clemency should intervene and one cannot well see how he can be acquitted. Should the verdict go against him, it is to be hoped, in view of extenuating circum stances, that President McKinley will interpose. And then the open mouth course of General Miles should receive attention. Tiik announcement that Joseph II. Choate of the New York bar is to go to London in place of Ambassador Hay, now secretary of 9tate, will now gratify all true Americans. At the present time, as never before, our diplomatic service needs to be well manned, especially in all leading posi tions. Mr. Choate is a leader of the New York bar. and a near relative of Kufus Choate, at one time leader of the Boston bar. He will honor the country which has honored him. The protracted contests of the dif ferent state legislatures over the elec tion of United States senators lends moral support to the measure intro duced into that body by Senator Mitchell of Oregon several years ago, for the election of senators directly by the people. The influence of money in the elections of Nevada, Montana, NewJersev and sometimes of Cali fornia, as well as other states, more especially of late years, has bred a dis trust and disgust that nothing but radical measures can remove. THE loss of the pleasure yacht, Paul Jones, with all on board, in the Gulf of Mexico,is one of those events which bring joy and tears into closest con tact. Fitted out as a pleasure j-acht with a pleasure party on board, rep resenting tho weahh and social posi tion of four of our largest wester n cities, it di-appeared without one fare well word from a soul on board, and only pieces of wreckage and pitiful bits of peisonal belongings are lefo to tell of the end that has thrown so many households into mourning. It seems n;w that Sei.ator Foraker did not aftt-r all speak for the ad ministration when he proclaimed that the United States would deal with the Philippines as with Cuba. Even he now disclaims with some warmth the 'uferences of the London pipers to 'hat etf ;ct. Weil, the next time Sen ator Foraker paints a horse and calls i. by another name, he wi uUl do well t label it. Nearly everybody iu America, as well as Londoa, under stood him to speak for the erovernment and to those with good memories the surprise was great. When the Otoe Indian reservation lands were offered at public auction eight or ten years ago there was a swarm of land speculators to bid them in, at fancy prices, considerably above their appraisement, says the Omaha Bee. '1 he purchase money was placed to the credit of the Indians and is held in reserve for them in the United States treasury. Now the speculators ask congress to give them relief from their own recklessness and pay them back the excess of what they paid over and above the appraised value of the lands. This bill has actually passed j the senate, but it is not likely to pull through the house. While it may be the duty of our representatives in con gress to give Nebraskana all the assist ance they can to recover legitimate claims, it is doubtful whether they are justified from the moral standpoint in robbing the Indians for the benefit of speculators. Had these lands been purchased from a railroad corporation or a real estate syndicate the pur chasers would hardly have thought of such a thing as demanding a part of their money back on the plea that they had foolishly outbidden each other. AN UH.IKCT I.KSSON. When tho congress of tho United Statos unanimously and promptly pased a bill placing the enormous sum of fifty milliriMof dollars in tho hands of tho president of tho United Stitto, "for national defense," tho patriotic spirit of tho people rang out in the na tion strong and true, and from end to end of our greut country encomiums upon the stilling of partlsaD spirit was commended in the pres?, upon tho platform, and in tho pulpit. Nothing that tho United Stittes, as a nation, ever did was more iiupros&ivo eithe r of the extent of the patriotism, nor the generosity of an aroused and deter mined people, than tho passage of that historic and remarkable act. Wisely, prudently, and with i careful regard for tho exgeneies of tho oc casion, as well as with a due appiecia tion of the groat und flattering confi dence thus reposed in him, the presi dent of the United States has adminis tered that great trut, and there is none in tho land who has ever felt like questioning the di-psition of that vast sum of mono, but, on the contrary, a unanimous feeling that, had every thought that t-nte ed tho prtsitlont'. mind, every mot ive that inspired every act that led to it- d siosition, been written b--id ana 1 rgj beforo the country, tlio acts would have beep the 6amo, the d snosition of thj fu d no different than in fuct it was. For tho national defense for the welfare of the entire nation it is essential that conyre-s should in tl e same spirit now approach the subject of dealing with tho tevivalof Ameri can shipping in tho foreign trndc. This !s not a partiau, nor a parly, question; it is essentially and wholly a national question a question of national and commercial development. For that reason it is to be hoped that neither of tho groat parties in con gress, nor any of their representative?, will be disposed to attempt to make party or partisan capital, either for or against measures offered for the solu tion of this vexed and complicated problem. Let the same spirit that ani mated congress in placing fifty mil lions of dollars in the president's hands, for him to dispose of as the de fense of tho nation required, agtin animate that body in reviving the American mercantile marine, for national defense, and tho future growth and permanent prosperity of our shippiog will be definitely as sured. THE late Nelson Dingley had a mo.e minute technical knowledge of the tariff question than any other man who has served in congress at any time in the past quarter of a century, with the exception, perhaps, of William I . Kelley, of Pennsylvania, who died a few years ago, says tho Globe-Democrat. Dingley, however, was a much broader man than Kelley. He had a closer acquaintance with polities in general. He was a greater statesman. As the head of the ways and means committee, and thus the leader of the majority party on the floor of the house, he had an important influence on legislation. The tariff act which bears his name was a leading factor in the financial rally which has come in the past two years, though, of course, . i .i i-i. i i me placing oi tno goiu standard on a solid basis, which was also involved in the republican triumph of 18110, bore a decisive part in the business improv ment. In one particular the experi ence of tho Dingley tariff has been like that of the Morrill tariff. If the Spanish war had not occurred the rev enue under the present act would fully meet the expenditures of the govern ment. Had the war of secession been averted the Morrill tariff, which wa passed just before the war began, wonld undoubted v have furnished abundant revenue. SHIPS, nowadays, are made of steel; fteel is made of iron o-e and coke and limestont ; a'l of these things exist in great natural abundance in this count! y, we have a surplus of people eager to mine and quarry the essential materials; wo have tho finost skilled labar in the world capable of turning it into steel, and i f turning the steel into ship?; we have the money -n abund snce with which to run the ships, and we have a great foreign tr;ide worth nearly two bi lion of dol lars annually to carry what, then, i- there to stop us from doing our own own carrying once we begin? We shall not be able to hesrin, however. until congress s iys the word. THE times are particularly auspic ious for a large increase in the op portunities for trtde for American ships in the West Indies, Central a? d South America. A man with half an eye could eee tnat; ami the con templation of it ought not to be con fined to the people of the North. The lesson ought to be lejrnel in the South as well.

SOMETHING more than Jive years ago, through a circular signed by clergymen of all the denominations and leading citizens, this club was started for the purpose as stated In the circular: "To take boys off the street at night: to givo them as far as prac ticable a physical, manual and moral training; to teach them industry and thrift; to help them find employment; to find homes for those who are or phans and friendless." The first four propositions have been faithfully car ried out. There has never been need of tho club taking upon itself the fifth proposition the charity phase of the work. The work of the Bunker Hill Boys' club is to make life pleasant and profitable to this class of boys who are known as the "neglected boy, "tho boy without occupation or restraining in fluence of i-choo'; the boy who roams tho street from erly morning till In te at. night, gathering from saloon nnd wharf nothing but hith on which to feed his ardent nature. And this club is doing a work for these "men of to morrow" that shall ttand for all time. If a boy desires to become a member f this club he applies for a ticK t. hich i- forfeited for misbehavior rily M- mbership entitles him to the use of the library, gamo room, reading room and gymnasium. Wo line is drawn as to r oe, creed or condition. Ary b y eight to sixteen 3 ears of age is tliyible for membership. There is no pre)vision for religions teaching. not from any aversion on the part of the management to instruction in mat ters religious, but with tho object of avoiding contention by members of various denominations and creeds as te the methods or object. The direc tor in bis fifth annu.il report says: "We do teach a boy, however, to be maniy and honest. Wo take every opportunity to sho.v him that a good boy is worth more than a bad one, hotn to himself and to society, and thru right living and abstention from evil practices plrces hiin on a higher plane in the estimation ef tho world." The enrolled membe-bhip of this club is lo.i, and average daily attend ance 4o. There, is a printing class, which meets two evening each week. A carpentry eiass which has an able instructor, four hours each week. The members of tins class are very pro ficient in the use of tools, and each completed a twenty-inch sloop rigged yacht f latest model during the past year. These yachts were exhibited in Boslexi in June, and attracted much attention. There is a game room which has been a resort of pleasure to hundreds of boys, but the gymnasium has proved its drawing power, and many boys have enjoyed tho aerial ladder, the tumbling mats and the striking bag. This organization is self-governing. The eHicers of the club, namely, presi dent, vice president, attorney-genera), financial secretary, and twelve judges are chosen by the boys from among their own ranks. The ansual election in November, with its preceeding caucuses, is a time of great excite ment. This mode of government has proven itelf to be very efficient, the court often imposing severe sentences on tho young offenders. From the fifth annual report of this club we cepy the following memoriam a tribute to one whom mary Platts mouth people remember, Mr, Thomas Doane: "The passing from earth of Mr. Doane took from the Bunker Hill Boys' club an active worker, a staunch supporter and a warm friend. Since its organization he was auditor of the club's accounts, and his faithful atten tion to even the minute-t details of his po-ition was an inspiration to all other officers to like effort. His broad philanthropic spirit, pract.cal mind and generous heart responded to every call, and in fact, were so often volun tarily given to the service of the club as to place the management under continual obligation to him " Ol I UllfJ L ' I but? u u, 1 1 1 1 t . vt 111' II. The foilowing letter from the super intendent of the Bunker Hill Boys' club was recently received in this city: Boston. Mass.. Jan. 10, 1S!9. Robert H. White, Secretary of the Boys' History Class, I'lattsmouth, Neb. Dear Sir: Your letter to me conveying as it does the good will of the organiza tion which you represeut, came duly to hand, and allow rue to express to you as best I may my sincere thanks and appreciation of the same. It is indeed gratifying to know that our work meets with your approval. Of course all organizations depending on popular subscription for their sup port keep one constantly on the alert, and such encouraging letters from co-workers serve to spur one on to better things. I have at present 17 boys on the list ol active member'--, and the average attendance is about 125. The aiui of the club is to keep the bovs otl the treet, aud eventually to make them become better morally, mentally and physically. This is a great undertaking as, of course, you are aware, i ne uoys send grueling 10 uic memuers of the History class, and as for mself sir, I thank you very much for your thoulittul-ne-is. ami wish you all the success imaginable. .urs ery respectlully, Fkaxcis Pf.arsu.n, Supei intendent.

If ho continues to im prove we may expect to see him down in town soon, going to Lincoln to en joy tho senatorial fight. Last Sunday Fay lloso had tho mis fortune to break a bone of tho left wrist in a peculiar manner. He was riding a bicycle along tho sidewalk on A street, and in throwing emt his hand to catch hold of tho picket fence his hand went between two pickets with the abevo result. Dr. Wallace reduced the fracture, which was called ' Colles' fracture," It made a painful wound that will require several days' care. Mrgrors Prepare to Fight.

"New, remember," said a charming Washington woman to her new butler, who had but a faint conception of the business for which he demanded the highest wages, "remember, in announc ing meals you are to say, 'Breakfast is ready,' 'Lunch is ready,' 'Dinner i3 served.' " Not long after, this charm ing woman gave a dinner to soma friends.
