CoALING STATIONS.

The Express deals ad arbitirum with
this question in this mornings issue
and seems to think that Uncle Sam
has no need of coaling stations. 1t
would trace all our Samoan difficult
ties to the coaling station established
at Page in the Samoan Islands and
deprecates the existence of the sta
ton at Honolulu as likely to get us
into trouble at that place. AS for
Hayti it would either have no ooaling
station there at all or would gobble
up the island and restore peace to its
DISTRACTED factions in the same way
that the lion restored peace to the
lamb. This is not the American idea,
it has not been the American policy,
neither is it desirable that it should
be. Uncle Sam has need of coaling
stations for commercial purposes as
also for use of his navy at remote
island stations and to abandon her
coaling stations, at Honolulu and at
Samoa would be virtually to abandon
her navigation of the Pacific. 1t by
no means follows that the United
States desires protectorate over
these islands, or that such q prOtec-
toTate would be to her advantage. 1t
is not possession or direction of gov
eminent that the United States is
DESTROYS of securing, but trading
stations, through which her commerce
TO and beyond these islands
may be extended. To take
possession of these islands, even
could it be done peaceably and
with the full consent of the islanders
and without exciting the distrust or
hostility of other nations would adj
vantage this government nothing.
TO keep peace between the native fac
tons would be an endless task, and
as this is purely representative gov
eminent it is pertinent to enquire
how these outlying sea islands would
be governed. Uncle Sam has two
forms of governmental state and
territorial form. Granted that Hayti
is, as the Express says, just civilized
civilization, and learned enough to
llduul6 lGS weapons vi ulSIIuCtlOD,
how will it be represented Suppose
it were an integral part of the United
States, and it must be this
or nothing; a territorial legisla-
ture would needs be elected,
and what assurance of good govern
ment would be had from legislature
representing such elements of charac-
ter and civilization as the Haytians
possess? 1t has ever been the policy
of this government to lay claim to the
soil of this continent and to that only.
1t has no need or desire for foreign
possessions, and it's governments not
suited to the control of such foreign
possessions. Free intercourse with
the islands Of the sea and the lands
that lie beyond, cOaling stations
where the wants of our navy and the
necessities of commerce call for them,
a rigid nOn-iuterference in the domes-
tic affairs of foreign peoples, savage or
civilized, just maintenance of our
rights wherever these are assailed,
and such a broad and wise CONNER
cial policy as will open to us the best
trade of the commercial world, these
things bound the profitable extension
of American influence beyond the
coasts of this continent.

OKLAHOMA is not as peaceable as it

that lamb like quiet prevailed. The
lamb turns out to be a veritable ram of
the most belligerent type. The suits
to try title there in the years that are
to follow will result in more misfits

THAT Home Insurance Company, of
which mention has been made in
these columns is a move in the right
direction. Let our home business
patrOnize such an institution and
build it up, retaining the money at
home that would 9th erwise leave the
state and our home trade will be the
gal ner by just so much. The Lord
helps those who help themselves and
no better method of self help than
this can be devised. San Antonio has

THE democratic press are growing
fat over the letter which Mr.. Negley
of Montana wrote to the president
anent the change in the Montana
vote, assuring him that the state
would be still republican had Russell
Harrison broken his neck. The charge
is made that the state is lost TO the
republican party because the presi-
dents son has had direction of its
patronage, and has bartered the
federal offices there for private gain.
A letter of this kind does more to help
democratic digestion than a bottle of
pepsein. The end of this letter is not
yet. 1t is we'll to take all such state
ments with wide margin for doubt.

that resignation by Presbytery to

sally held in respect. San Antonio

" no, We never did. Why should We ?
Nor did We ever see a woman waltz

with cigar between her teeth and
dropping in to every saloon she saw.
We never saw woman 20 fishing In

A Remarkable chess Player.

In America there are ladies who
make livelihood by teaching the
principles Of the social game Of whist.
In Russia there is lady known to
English chess circles who, to use an
Americanism, beats them hollow. She
is chess player, whose father, once a
wealthy land owner Of the south OF
Russia, lost all his fortune over the
chess board. His daughter, now
Nine. Lavroffsky, when still a young
girl, was seized with the fixed idea OF
winning it back in the manner in
which it was lost. She studied the
game with unexampled assiduity un-
der her fathers guidance, and in time
became past-master-or mistress
therein. Then she began her career
as professional. She has since then
amassed a considerable fortune play
ing to large stakes, and lately married
M. Lavroffsky, also a lover OF chess
and is now coming to st. Petersburg

For the SENTINEL.
.IT NIGHT HAVE BEEN"


Our hopes are centered ON certain thing
We strive, we wait, we pray;
Feeling what Joy that hope must bring,
What pleasure with another day.
In vain we struggle with the miad.
Our thoughts with hope 'nssts;
Alas how soon are left behind
All the pleasure ambition lent.
We watch each day enclose
With rapid beating heart;
Like the petals Of a rose
They fade, and then depart.
Our pleasure, then. but precedes pain,
For he that toiled to win
Repeats the task DER again,
And sighs 1t might have BEEN"
The maid receives her lovers vow
With all a maiden's truth;
Where's the devoted lover now!
Go ask blighted youth.
A man may strive and wal.
For woman's cherished heart,
To find, when all too late,
Their lives are wide apart.
The youth that flies his kite on high,
With CHEEKY, boyish pride,
Perceiyes, at last. with many q sigh,
His kite extended by his side.
Hope, then, is not friend
II cheers. but only 10 defeat;
Carries our lives to the bitter end,
And only half complete.
One hope there is-and that Il God;
He watches TO the end,
And when TO dust, beneath the sod,
Well know, why not, at might have
been."

The New Dynamite Cruiser ve-
suvius surpasses she worlds

CANDIDATES.

@~DtSsos
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 1.-THE third
official trip of the new United States
dynamite gun cruiser Vesuvius was
made over the new Government
course, Delaware breakwater, this
morning. The trial was the most
successful OF the three, the vessel at
tanning a rate OF 2l.64 knots per hour,
while the contract calls for but 20
knots. The speed attained lacks but
6.l0 Of the rate of % statute miles per
hour, and puts the Vesuvius in the
front rank OF ocean greyhounds, hav-
ing attained the fastest speed of any
steamship aAoat. The length Of the
course was officially certified TO the
builders by the Naval Board as being
2.59 knots, and the Messrs. Camp
were notified that the Vesuvius would
have to 60 over it each way In
minutes 81 1-5 seconds In order to at
tain q mean speed Of not less than 20
knots an hour, as required by statute.
The first run over the course was in
the direction Of the tide, and was
made in minutes 80 seconds, which
gave o rate OF 22.95 knots per hour.
The second run against the tide was
made in 7;S0, showing rate Of 20.35
knots.
Secretary Whitney wired the build.

result OF the trial of the Vesuvius
