THE NEWS, in anticipation of a big
run of business, has just received a
shipment of two tons of paper. The
subscription list to The Daily and

rapidly, which i-- evidence that the
people appreciate a clean, fair paper
that gives the news and does not seek
to besmirch anybody and one that is
not the personal organ of a few old
relegates.
"We know what American victory
means. It means not to oppress, not
to tread on the necks of the fallen. It
means to lift them up, to place them
upon their feet, and to do all that is
in our power to extend comfort, civili
zation, happiness and prosperity to all
mankind. This war has brought un
der the dominion and protectorate of
the stars and stripes many millions of
our Catholic people, far removed,some
of them, from the American continent,
but we predict for them unhesitatingly
that they will make American citizens
as loyal, as sturdy and as true as those
that are here today." Father Lavelle
n speech introducing President Mc-
Kinley, at Catholic Summer School
Grounds, Champlain,N. Y.,Augu9t 15.
The free-traders who were in such
high feather over the slightly in
creased importations of the fiscal year
S99 have lost interest in that subject
since it is discovered that this increase
was almost entirely in articles re
quired by manufacturers whose busi
ness had been increased by the protec
tive tariff. The imports of raw silk
for manufacturing were in the fiscal
year 1899 $31,876,342, against 817,558,-
163 in the last year of the Wilson law;
of raw fibers for use in manufacturing
the imports of 1899 were $20,290,727,
aer.inst $13,446,186 in 1898,and $12,336,-
41S in the Inst year of the Wilson law;
of crude India rubber the imports for
use in manufacturing were in 1890 $31,-
876,342, against $2-5,545,391 in 1898,
ind $17,5!8,163 in the last year of the
Wilson law; while the imports of t.p
for use in manufacturing tin-plate
were, in 1899. $11,843,357, against $8,-
778,151 in 1S93, and $6,533,352 in the
ast year of the Wilson law. The only
reduction in imports of material for
manufacturing was in wool, of which
the imports in the last year of the
Wilson law, which were admitted free
of duty, were $53,243,191; in 1898, the
first year of the Dingley law, they
were $16,783,692,and in 1899,the second

sea falling off. The navy costs but
little more now than on a peace foot
ing. Congress appropriated $80,000,
000 for the authorized army of 100,000
men. The cost of maintaining the
army in the Philippines is not yet
closely ascertained, but it will be noth
ing unusual except in the matter of
transporting troops. Manila is an ideal
base for convenience and security, and
campaigning-in Luzon will be no more
expensive than elsewhere. Carrying
army supplies in ships is the cheapest
method known.
Nothing in the condition of the
treasury indicates that heavy taxes
will be necessary and those in exist
ence bear lightly upon the people.
There is an ample balance of cash on
hand. The United States came out
of the war with Spain in extraordi
nary good financial shape, and paid a
large sum to the defeated nation in
stead of at krtog one. At the end of
modern wars, as a rule, both combat
ants have contended with huge addi
tions to national debts and have been
compelled to meet the emergency with
increased taxation or, for the winning
side, a demand for immense indemnity.
When war with Spain became a cer
tainty the average estimate of the
probable cost was about $700,000,000.
That was the general judgment, and
the great difference between that fig
ure and the actuil expenditure is the
just measure of the financial efficiency
and foresight of the administration.
There are two factions in the fusion
ranks in this county. If they should
fail to fuse there would ba six little
bunches of dissatisfied, disgruntled
politicians the two pop factions, the
democratic factions and last and least,
the free silver republicans.
The f usionists have the biggest job
on their hands thisfall they have ever
had to elect any part of their ticket.
This is not a good year for the roar
backs. There are good crops and
money is too plentiful for their cause
to prosper.

The truth is, hereby is becoming
very unpopular, and it is very gen
eraliy believed that efforts of this kind
result ever in greater and greater lib
erality and latitude of belief in relig
ious matters. Sectarian cords are
loosening rathar than tightening, and
those who have been so ready to de
nounce the least departure from the
new established creeds are beginning
to see that calling liberal interpreters
to strict account does not keep even
tho faithful from trying the fences of
the fold.
xne citizens oi apoKane, u asn, are
raising fur ds for the erection of a
monument to John Robert Monaghan,
who was killed in Samoa during: the
attack upon the British and Ameri
can marines by the followers of Ma
taafa. Monaghan was well liked in
Spokane, where he lived, and $2,000
has already been subscribed toward
the monument.
A hgure has appeared in a quarry at
West Orange, N. Y., which bears a
resemblance to the traditional pictures
of St. Anne, and hundreds of devout
Italian Catholics have gathered to do
homage to what they regard as a
miracle. The figure appears to be in
relief from the white rock and about a
foot high. It stands some fifty feet
from the ground, so that access to it is
impossible.

Crippled by
Rheumatism.
Thoso who have liheumatism find
themselves growing steadily worse all
the while. One reason of this is that
the remedies prescribed by the doctors
contain mercury and potash, which ul
timately intensify the diseaso by caus
ing the joints to swell and tiflVn,
producing a severe achincrof the bones.
K. S. S. has been curing Rheumatism

which .seemed ulmost incurable.

Everybody knows that Rheumatism
is a diseased state of the blood, and
only a blood remedy is the only proper
treatment, but a remedy containing
potash and mercury only aggravates
the trouble.
