Iowa republicans will open their state campaign early in , September not that any campaign is needed, but simply to keep in practice. With three national associations of dentists meeting simultaneously at Ashe- vllle, it behooves people with defective molars to organise for self-protection, Grorer Cleveland says that the solu tlon of the lalor problem must be found in patriotism. Even Colonel Hrj'oh might agree to this succinct platitude, Those Veneauelan revolutionists huve been playing In hnil luck. They should have tackled oue of the smaller South American republics, of which there are several, with a successful revolution overdue. The king of Slam wants to float $5,000,000 loan iu the United Htntes. American capitalists have the money so the question Is simply whether the king of Slum hu the security and Is willing to pay the price. The report Is abroad In Ohio that Toin Johnson would like to "do up" Senator Hnnna. Certain ambitious statesmen have tried to "do up" Henntor Ilanna on previous occuslous, but only stubbed their toes for their pains. One of the local sheets, which acts ns offlclul spokesmaw for the nntls, refers to that organisation as the "Mercer Benson faction." This la probably a opt a characterization as has been made, but if The Itee had made it we may be ure there would be a prompt protest entered. 4 Speakers at the pure-food Convention at St. Paul declared that it is Imposst ble to rely on the purity of whisky after It is taken out of the loiided warehouse and opened up by the retailer.

It Is quite probable that our exports of manufac tures to Germany, France and other continental countries will not be ns large In the current fiscal year as they Were last year. It IS possible, Also, that England will take less of the products of ouf mills and factories. In all those countries the manufacturers are strug gling to shut out, as far as possible, American manufactures, and It is to be expected that they will to some extent accomplish this. As a matter of fact the Industrial world Is today arrayed against the United States and it is con sequently a very serious question whether we can hold all of the trade we now have. What we are, sure or, however, Is n constant and even growing demand for the agricultural products of the west. Europe must continue to buy our bread- stuffs nnd provisions nnd there Is every probability that the demand for these will grow from year to year. Most European countries cannot produce food stuffs to the extent of their needs. They are compelled to import and nowhere can they buy to better advantage than In the United States. Our productive cnpnclty Is far from being exhausted. Not many years ago it was predicted that early in the twentieth century we would have no foodstuffs to export, that particularly as to our wheat supply we should hnve no more than sufficient for home consumption. We are still pro ducing a surplus, with every reason to believe' that we shall continue to do so for many years to come. The great gronnry of the nation, the west, Is now as It has been for years the basis nnd Iktllwnrk of nntlonnl prosperity and so It will continue to be. WILL TAKE KO IHARCEB. "Unde Joe" Cannon, who will be speaker of the next house of represontn-. tlves. has become facetious over the suggestion by Senator Piatt Of Senator firing upon the boundary question in Aldrlch as a desirable candidate for the 18fle weeii " country anu annnu, The ease on the part of both the American nnd British commissioners will meet in London In September to consider the particular matter that Is to be presented, which involves simply the meaning of the treaty between Hub- sla and Great Britain In 1825, In its vice presidency on the republican ticket and Insists that Senator Piatt Is merely Indulging his lunate humor. "The Idea of taking Aldrlch," Mr. Cannon Is cred ited with exclaiming, "one of the Strong est men in the sehnte, nnd bottling him up in the vice president's chair for four years, where he would not have a bit of power or anything to say! The only attraction about the vice presidency at United States and Great Britain has been fully made up and no great time, it would seem, needs to be ex ponded in discussion of the facts which will be presented to the Joint coiiiinls slon. It is the opinion at Washington that this country lias an absolutely tin assailable position, that the contention Of the American government is invlnci any time Is, of course, the possibility of bl(4- We rto not tulnk thnt yone who succession to the presidency, and no sane man could hope to outlive Presl dent Itoosevelt with his present health, vlgorousness and energy." "Uncle Joe" Cannon might Just as well hnve expressed himself In these Identical has carefully examined the tubject can have a reasonable doubt ps to the soundness of the position of the United States. Indeed, it seems most extraor dinary, In view of all the facts, that Canada should have gone so far as to words three years ago with reference to 8ubmlt tlle QUrtln t0 commission the suggestion of Governor Itoosevelt as the running mate for President Mo Kin ley, and In fact that Is Just What some of the friends of Mr. Roosevelt did sa3'. The idea of bottling up In the vice presidential chair for four years the strenuous incumbent of the execu tive office of the great Empire state seemed altogether too preiiosterous to be seriously considered and the mere Intimation at thnt time that Mr. Roose velt could hope to outlive President Mc- Klnley In the state of health, vlgorous ness nnd energy which he then eujoyed would have been scouted unceremoni ously. The lesson which the American peo ple have learned Is that it is not safe to take chances on the presidential suc cession, and that if a man of President McKInley's robustness could be cut off The result of the commission's dellbero tlons will be awaited with a great deal of Interest In both countries, ('as of the Crash.

Nashville American: The ministry seems to be losing Its attractions for young men. The pay of clergymen Is better than It once was. though In many Instances It is very small yet. The churches are finer, but comparatively fewer people attend them. The simple days of old-fnshloned faith and primitive ideas hnve passed. The Puritan period hns vanished. Whether It be science or commercialism or liberalism or educa tion or the freer exercise of thought, any of these or all of these that hnve Influenced religious thought and conduct, there has been a change within the church and with out. The conditions that once prevailed In this country, the Isolated churches, the Itinerant ministers, the far-traveling olr cult riders, the periodic revivals, the camp- inectlngs, the muscular and emotional re ligion and the simple, earnest and intense faith, and other features that characterised a new or a thinly-settled country, have In a large measure been succeeded by other conditions, not lens moral or religious, In fact, but different.

Postomee Business m Reliable deuce of Good) Times. Cleveland Leader. The gross receipts of the postofflce In fifty of the largest cities ot the United States, for. the month of June, showed a net gain of more than 14 per cent over ths corresponding month of last year. Heavy immigration has made the increase In the population Unusually great, for a year of two, hut It la an extreme estimate to ny that the number of people In the country last month may have been i per cent more than It was a year earlier. The cities have gained at a higher rats than the rest of the United States, but the fifty places which reported an expansion of 14 per cent In postofflce business did not add more than 4 per Cent to the num ber of their residents. There are few tests of general commer cial and industrial activity which are as accurate as the business of the postofflces. The patronage of the Postofflce depart ment cornea from all classes. It is not limited to any one Industry or Interest, Postofflce charges do not change like rail road rates. The Volume of traffic Is meas ured by the money received.

The common Impression in regard to the people of the far east, the Chinese particularly, Is that they may always should not be permitted to preside over tho sessions of the senate as the heir apparent to the White House, but no man Is qualified to be vice president who is not also qualified to take the reins of government as president in case necessity requires. A lynx-eyed correspondent of the Chi cago Chronicle, Journeying all the way to Missouri, has discovered that the real democratic presidential timber Is to be found in the person of Senator Francis Marlon Cockrell of that state.

Iioston Transcript. The natlonnl bankruptcy lsw, with the amendments made by congress at the Inst session, has now had time to prove Its value as a working Instrument, and it Is the opinion of the special officer bf the Department of Justice. In Charge of this service, thst as n result of Its operation there will be a decrease In the number of voluntary petitions in bankruptcy In the future. In fact this prediction Is sup ported by the returns of the federal courts for the six months ending the. first of last April. 1 ins aecresse 1 nxeiy t0 be em phasised from now on unless lher should be a panic or s period of unusual business nepresmon. ur course there are reasons for this and one of them Is that In ac cordance with one of the amendments re ferred to a person may not he adjudged a bankrupt If within six years he has re ceived a dlschsrge upon a voluntary petl tlon In bankruptcy. This. Is a marked discouragement to that class of men who make bankruptcy a factor of their busi ness calculations. It compels caution and handicaps dishonesty. It will be remem bered that another amendment .-evened the order of the original bill whereby cred itors who bad received payments on ac count were required to surrender these amounts before they were permitted to prove the balance of their clslms. This fre quently caused confusion and embarrass ment. Now, when a payment on account has been honestly received, without knowl edge of the debtor's insolvency, It csn be retained without affecting the creditor's rights to an equal share with other credi tors. The measure seems to he at least reduced to a practical working basis which will benefit legitimate business generally.
