It is stated that the sultan of Turkey in
declining to recognize the demands of the
UnIted States for indemnity for outrages
comnniltted on AmerIcan mIssion estabhsh-
meats in Turkey cIted the attItude of the
Unltcd States in soilie cases where chalnms
were preferred by foreign governments for
damages sustained In riots by their citizens
in this country. This is calcuiated to set
Americans thinking. We have been so accustomed -
customed to regarding the unspeakable Turk
as a semi-barbarian that it is something of
a surprise to find him quoting modern Instances -
stances and imiternatlonal precedent against
a claim for damages to AmerIcan citizens in
Turkey and it Is a severe Jolt to our national -
tional pride to find that these precedents
have been furnished by ourselves.

If America were driven by a combination
of European powers to rely upon the aid
of the British , the latter , in spite of the
sentimentallties of Angho-Saxondom , would
need a recompense as valuable In all probability -
ability as the territory in dispute. If America -
ica were in a tight piace-to use a. vulgar
but graphic phrase-the alliance of An-
gho-Saxondom would be adroitly utilized
to extort blackmail from her. The Amen-
cans are well aware of this , and so will
have nothing to do with an alliance with
England. They arc conscious of their own
strength. of their unlimited resources , and
of their ability to cope with any di1culties
that may arise without outside aid. There
is nothing more striking In the Ihispano-
American conflict than the sagacious tore-
sight and the prudent statesmanship displayed -
played in the conduct of the war and the
foreign policy of the United States by an
inexperienced cabinet , elected almost cx-
elusively to deal with domestic questions of
tariff and currency , The war has displayed
the virility of the people , and the adnnlnis-
tratlon of the country's affairs by untried
maca in an emergency has afforded signal
testimony of their genius and practical ca.
pacity. In the absence of a complete submission -
mission by Spain , America svlhl proceed , as
one eats an artichoke , leaf by leaf. to de-
your the over-sea possessions , at her ioi-
nrc. There Is great virtue In a mit ac-
comphi. Step by step as the war progresses
the miiitary and navai preparations of the
United States will be developed , There is
no possible combination of European powers
which u-Ill not pause before seeking to
make America disgorge what sine has once
swahloaed The task of tackling lner redoubtable -
doubtable fleet in far-off waters , and of at.
tempting to oust her from an effective miii-
tary occupation in existence would be a
very large one. even for France , Germany

If the only outcome of tine present war
were the disappearance of yellow fever front
Cuba mind the cleansing of the pestilential
port of Havana , this country would not have
fought In vain. That havana In It exIsting

neighborIng people and state , is an assertion
that can be made wIthout fear of contradic.
tion. That bothi the town amnd the harbor
by the application of. a lIttle engineering
skill can be rendered as healthy as any in
the south , is , in the opinion of experts ,
quite practicable ; but that any steps ten- ]
ing in this direction will be taken under
Spanish rule is Just as surely iloti to be
hooked for. Therefore the sooner this rule
ceases in Cuba the better it will be for the
public eahth of America and the world at
large.
If proof were needed that yellow fever
Is essentially a disease which hiounishes amid
filthy surroundings. and that when these
favoring conditions are removed abates and
In seine instances wholly disappears , we
might cite JamaIca. Mexico and the Danish

stands us almost the sole and certainly as
the chief source of this particular form of
danger to the commercial nations of the
worid. From Its proximity to Cuba tinis
country has been the principal sufferer from
SpanIsh neglect of the laws of health , and
undoubtedly whatever form of government
may be decided upon for Cuba , the authort-
ties at Washington whit insist that the unsanitary -
sanitary conditions now prevailing at
havana shall no longer continue.
If BrazIlian sanitarlans can bo awakened

Sampson family tree In the historic cnunty
of Limerick. A correspondent of tIle Cork
Exannimner says the ancestors of the Macri-
can admiral lived in the village of Oahbniiy ,
near the famous glen of Alnerlow. Ills father
kept a blacksmith shop there , and traces
of his forgo are to be seen mit the vrcsent
day. lIe emigrated to the United States to
better his fortune while his son , the ad-
mimi , was a child. "The first of time Samp-
Sons who came to Ireland , " says time corro-

mtm'my , which colonel married a daughter
of Sir Jobmi Cnuilwehl of Moore abby , and
after settling down in Ireland became more
Irish than the Irish themselves. The above
Colonel Sampson was , therefore , an ancestor
of the admIral and of the admiral's ' ntimner-

Theodore Roosevelt clIngs to the serious
sithe of life so firmly that humor rareiy en-
tore into his plaits withommt a surgical operation -
ation , An incident illustrating this charac-
teristlc is related by the Chicago Post , A
dozen years ago , after a trip to hits ranch
in Dakota , Roosevelt fIlled the New York
papers with stories of his prowess as a
hunter of big game. Lawler Trudo of Ciii-
cage , who owned a ranch near Roosevelt's ,
submitted to an interview In which he pretended -
tended to gIve ho true story of his neigh-
bor's hunting. It was an intensely humorous -
ous recital and was wired on to the New
York Sun. Trude's story , in brief , was that
Roosevelt was so near-sighted that ho could
not. see anything ten feet in front of him ;
that ho kept a lot of men on his ramich
whose Jobs depended upon feeding his vanIty -
Ity mnd making him believe that be was a
mighty bunter ; that on receiving notice of
his annual expeditions against the wild anl-
mania of the northwest they collected a lot of
tame bears and stuffed bears and other animals -
mals , and "planted" them at convenient intervals -
tervals on the Roosevelt ranch , and that
on his hunts his hired hands steered hint
against these ferocious beasts and gave him
a chance to nil them with lead. Roosevelt
took the Interview seriously and came back
at Trude with a dreadful "roast. " A second
and then a third interview with Trade followed -
lowed , each one funnier than that preceding ,
and to each of these Roosevelt responded in
a savage vein. There was no name that
was printable vhich Roosevelt did not employ -
ploy in denouncing the Chicago lawyer , It
was not untIl years afterward that he could
be made to see the joke , and to this day
he gets restive it reference is made to the
incident.
"Commodore Schiey is about the quickest

"I was a bo'sun's mate with him when he
was the commander of one of the old wind-
jamnmners. We were on the South Atlantic
station. 'We pulled into the harbor of Moo-
tevidec for fresh provisions one morning ,
and Commander Schley's gig was dropped
to take him off to the beach to see the
American consul on some business , Schley ,
then the gig's crew pulled her alongside
the gangway , stepped Into the boat with
a good deal of difuculty , for Montevideo is
the roughest harbor in the world , and with
the motion of the ship and the rocking of
the gig It required some seamanship to get
aboard of the running boat. The cox'un of
the gig gave the order to shove off a bit
ahead of time , before Schley had got aft to
his scat. Just then a big wave struck the
ship on the port. side , amid she keeled over ,
whiio the gig rose almost hevel with the
starboard gun'ls , A big gun was hanging
with her snout directly above Scbley's bead
when this happened , and if he hadn't ( lone
a bit of rapid thinking his skull would have
been crushed like an egg shell. He just
happened to take in the situation out of the

into the bottom of the gig on all fours in

The last bulletin of the United States Do-
partmcnt of Labor , just issued , contains the
results of an exhaustive inquiry into the
liquor industry as a consumer of raw ma-
tenials , an ennployer of labor and capital
and a producer of revenue , federal and
local. The more interesting portion of th
report is that setting forth the experience
and practice of employers in respect to the
use of intoxicants by employee. Reports
upon this topic were collected from 7,025
establishments engaged In a variety of industries -
dustries , employing 1,746,000 men ,
Of 6,976 employers who made answers to
the question whether or not they gave consideration -
sideration in employing macn to the drinking
habits of applicants , 5,263 replied that such
habits were taken into consideration. That
Is , more than three-fourths of the employ-
erg reporting make inquIry relative to tile
sobriety of men applying for employment.
As such inquiry is made. it is fair to assume
that men who are habitual consumers of intoxicants -
toxicants are refused employment at time
outset. The extent of the discrimination
against habitual drinkers is made more up-
parent by tine further statement that 703
of 724 transportation companies and 2,940 of
3,723 manufacturIng concerns reporting pay
attention to the use of intoxicants in em-
pioying men , for the reason that the two
employ 1,470,425 of the 3,745,023 returned by
all the Industries making responses. It
means practically timat all transportation
companies , employing nearly 900,000 men ,
I and that nearly four-fifths of the mann-
factuning catabliehments reporting discrim-
I mate against men who are nuidicted to the
turn of intoxicants. In trade , 471 of 63
establIshments reported that any general
use of intoxicants counts against applicants
for employment.
It appears ( rein other tables that all men
emIiIoyel are not required to abstain from
the use of intoxicants. The transportation
companies are the most rigid. Of 570 trans.
portation companies which make some re-
quiremnents , 203 requIre total abstinence of
mmii , eu or off duty ; 1G7 require it when on
I duty and 200 recognize it in the more un-
pontunt empioymnents. In all industries the
prohibition extends to all the higher grades
of emplayes and to those holding respon-
aible positions. The rcaon given by ent
ployers generally for requiring ahatluenco
is that men wIno have the drinking habit
arc more unreliable and less to be trusted
in places of responsibility.
Vbiip all who have reported are not of
the opinion that Saturday as pay uiay is
conductive to inlemperance , by far the
larger part are of the opinion that It is. IL
-
sppeArs that 24 estabiishmenhi have
changed pay day to sonie oilier day In the
week than Saturday In the effort to lessen
the drink habit , whIle torty.evcn which
lmave paid their help on some other day have
changed hack to aturdny for the same
ptlrpcse. To the question of tIme nicans of
abating the drink evil , 1,103 reported In favor

'nit ? deductIon which may he made front
this interesting article is that the man who
is known to have convivial habits is debarred -
barred to a large extent from time more
icaponslblo and most desirable employ-
meats , and that the tendency In all employ-
meats , even those in which skill is not required -
quired , is to employ the man of tempernte
habits , not as a tootLer of sentiment , but of
economy. Time statistics referred to go to
sustain the statement often mnn'le by the
Journal that the imitchiigemit demmmand of the
most extemisivo employers of labor of alt
kinds for sobriety is the most poteqt agent
now fighting intemperance.

one can afford. Today and to'

chance to "pant" . During our
summer sale of clothing we accumulated -
cumulated many pairs of odd
pants-mostly from broken suit
lots. Pants from our $9 , $10 ,
