The election Of q Hohenzollern to the
Spanish throne will hardly be acceptable to
France. inasmuch as IL will give new prestige
to Prussia. BISMARCK has already secured foot
hold in Eastern Europe by placing Prince CHARLES
of Hohcnzollern on the Roumanian throne and
should a scion Of the same dynasty rule over
Spain, Prussia will have taken another consider
able step toward controlling the balance ofpower
in Europe, and making German influence para
mount over that Of France, England, and Aus
tria. To see Spain, the most Catholic nation OF
the world, ruled by Prince whose ancestors
bore the brunt Of the battles Of the Reformation,
would be another singular anomaly. But nothing
is impossible in the dilemma in which Spain has
been placed by the military adventures who dis
pose of her destinies-not even the advent OF
German sovereign teaching the proud Spaniards

from the Miners Journals

We have stated before that The small fac
ton representing the democracy in Congress
had resolved into a Guerilla Band, fighting
both friends and foes, IN its search after
plumber. This was fully ezempli6ed just
before Congress adjourned in an unmistaka
bic manner. When the Tax and Tariff Bill,
which had been so amended ostoreduco tax
alton for 1901, about EIGHTY MIL
LIONS OF DOLLARS. and reduced the
duty on tea, coffee and sugar largely, which
enter into the consumption ofthe masses, ey'
cry vote 10 Congress against the bill, max
ing this reduction, 35 in number were Dem.
ocrats- and every votein favor Of it-15s
in number, we're Republicans. In this
vote the Democrats have recorded them
selves against reducing the duty on tea,
coffee and sugar, Which enters into general
consumption-and they have also the auda'
city, with this damning record, to ask the
workers of tho country who produce the
wealth aud would have to pay thisif it bad
not been removed in defiance ofthese votes
to support their candidates; and there arc
thousands who will do it. Of course such
workingmcu must expect to be made dupcs
Of by any fool who has little gift of CAB;
and without one grain Of common sense to
